1st ASB president dies

A four-year struggle with cancer ended Friday for Charles
Merritt Solomon, LCC's first
student body president.
Solomon, 27, died Oct. 30 at
his home near Elkton.
A lifelong Douglas Countyresident, Solomon was deeply interested in education, and aspired
to become a school counselor. He
was elected in 1965 to serve as
LCC's firststudentbodypresident. He left LCC in 1966 with
an associate of science degree in
technical drafting.
After leaving Lane Solomon
returned to Douglas County to
work in a sawmill and save money
to en r o 11 at Oregon College of
Education at Monmouth. He became ill that summer, however,
and had to abandon temporarily
his plans to return to school.
During the next four years he
underwent seven major surgeries
and 11 extended stays in the
hospital. Until two months ago,
when his illness forced him to
resign the position on the Elkton
School Board to which he was
elected in May, Solomon had still
hoped to go back to college and
become a counselor. He was
the youngest person ever elected
to the School Board position.
Born in Roseburg, Solomon
attended grades 1 through 12 in

the Elkton school system. He
was near the top of his class
when he graduated from Elkton
High School in 1961.
Preferring to be called" Charlie" (although Elkton residents
called him Merritt), he was a
popu_lar figure at LCC. After
leavmg the school, he was named
alumni president to serve on the
college's second presidential selection committee. He was pre-

sented a plaque by the school on
Oct. 3 for "outstanding leadership in the development of Lane
Community College." College
off i c i a 1s emphasized that the
award the first of its kind presented to astudentorformerstudent, was presented because of
Solomon's service to the school
and not because of his illness.
Solomon who was unmarried
lived south of Elkton with hi~
parents, Mr. and Mrs. Charles
Solomon. The family operated
a 900-acre sheep and cattle
ranch, and the father also works
for the Veterans Administration
at Rose bu r g.
Besides his
parents, Solomon is survived by
a sister, Mrs. Earl Palmer of
Campbell River, B. C., and his
grandparents, Mr. and Mrs. OUver Haines of Elkton.
Funeral services will be held
Wednesday at 1:30 p.m. in the
Elkton High School gymnasium.
Burial will be at the Kellogg
Ce m et e r y, with arrangements
being handled by Mills Mortuary
of Cottage Grove.
The family has requested that
in lieu of flowers, contributions
be made to the Merritt Solomon
Perpetual Memorial Scholarship
Fund in care of the Drain Branch
of the U. S. National Bank of
Oregon.

11 see·k appointment to vacant LCC post
Eleven persons have indicated
officially that they are interested
in filling a vacancy on the LCC
Board of Education.
Bert Dotson, LCC administrative assistant, said the letters
were received in response to
an announcement by the Board
last week that it was seeking
letters from persons interested
in the post left vacant by the
re s i gnat ion of Richard Williams of Eugene.
The deadline set by the board
for submitting letters was Wednesday, Oct. 28.
All the applicants, Dotson said,
live within the Eugene-Springf ie l d metropolitan area, although the vacated board post is
an at-large position which can
be filled by anyone within the
college district.
Robe rt Ac k e r m an, board
chairman, said the board will
consider the letters during · an
executive • session at its next
meeting scheduled for the night
of Nov. 11.
He said some of the individual
board members may have additional nominations to add to the
candidate list.

Ackerman said it is possible
that the board will agree upon
Williams' successor at that
meeting, but added that the board
may prefer' to narrow the list
for further review before making
a decision.
Both Ackerman and Dotson ~aid
names of those writing letters
expressing interest in the position will not be made public in •
line with past board policy.

KLCC to broadcast series

on problems of youth

KLCC-FM will begin on Wednesday, Nov. 4, a five-week series dealing with the problems of
youth.
The series, titled "Youth on
a Four-Day Trip," is composed
of five hour-long programs, and
will be aired weekly on Wednesdays from 7:00 to 8:00 p.m.
The series is composed of lectures presented at the 1968 Wisconsin Work Week of Health,
sponsored by the State Medical
Society and Physician's Service: Blue Shield.
Program topics include the
following:
NOV. 4 -- "WHY STUDENTS
CRACK UP," by Dr. Jack C.

Nancie Fadeley, Democratic can- chiatry at the University of Wisconsin Medical School.
didate for the state legislature, in
NOV. 11 --"LSD AND OTHER
the Oct. 27 issue should have
been attributed instead to a student questioning Mrs. Fadeley.
In response to a question on
what should be done about campus
radicals, Mrs. Fadeley is quoted
as saying '' I think we should limit enrollment at the universities
and make students pay their own
way." She did not make that
statement. Rather the student
questioning Mrs. Fadeley made
he statement as a part of the
original question.

Retraction

Dotson said names were not
released because the personal
I et t er s were directed to the
chairman, and applicants have not
been asked if they want their
names made public.
The person selected will serve
through June 30, 1971. If the appointee wishes to continue in
office he or she will have to
seek election to a four-year term
at the May 3, 1971, election.

New Hope Singers:
'Jesus people'

. by Jon Haterius
The "New Hope" singers made
a half-hour appearance in the
forum Theatre Friday noon, Oct.
30.
The singers were billed as
classical and religious singersbut one of the spokesmen told the
standing room only audience that
they would do gospel and classical rock.
The three-year-old Los Angleles group, consisting of 10
male and one female singers,
hardly looks like a Billy Graham
Crusade. Dan Robbins, 22, of
Eugene, who has been with the
group for a year and a half describes the "New Hope" as a
"Jesus Rock" musical group.
The group's reason for existing is "a firm belief in religion and enjoyment of playing
music." "We are just Jesus
people," says Dan.
Dan's father is minister for the
University Street Church of
Christ in Eugene. Dan attributes his being with "New Hope"
to his love for music and his
early religious background. ''I
first became aware of religion
seriously when I was eight years
old--! have been a 'Jesus person' ever since," says Dan.
All the members of the religious rock group believe strongly
in religion. It becomes obvious
whenever any of the members
talk about their lives on or off
the stage.
Dan had been in the group just
a short time when they performed
before 17,000 people for the Billy
Graham television crusade in
Minneapolis. The group travels
under the name "New Hope"
in the winter months and with
other musical groups in the summer.

''You gotta realize ·that we lead
an awfully gypsy life," says Dan.
"One night here- another night
somewhere else, and crazy hours
and packing and unpacking and
unpacking - it's awfully hectic.
But because we think we have
the answer (belief in Jesus) for •
so many people our age and older,
even if the pay isn't great it's
still well worth it."
The "New Hope" members
don't sound like austere preachers--but they feeltheyhavefound
contentment in God rather than
drugs, sex or other cop-outs.
Dan says, "We try to stay away
from talking about religion, because that sounds kind of heavy,
but we talk about our relationship to Jesus in all of our concerts around the country."
"As a matter of fact," says
Dan, "Eugene is one of the heaviest Jesus movements now in the
country. There is a lot of heavy
action Jesus movement up here
in the Willamette Valley." He
said that he enjoyed coming to
his home town. for that reason
plus the fact that he has a chance
to see his parents.
The young rock - religious
group has recently appe"ared at
Portland State, University of
Washington, University of California at Santa Barbara, Harvard,
university of New Mexico, University of Texas, and University
of California at Davis. They are
now and for some time into this
winter on extended tours of colleges, universities, high schools,
and service organizations
throughout the Unite ct States
"grooving" on music and Jesus
and communicating with oth~r
young people about how Jesus
can change their life styles for
the better.

Kent State does affect you!

Last week the ASB President announced a
proposal to solicit aid from LCC students for
bail and legal fees for Kent State students indicted by a special Ohio Grand Jury.
In addition to contributions by individual
sch o o 1s, the Associated Student Government
organization (of which Lane is a member) is
sending $1,000 to aid the students.
But why should Lane get involved in the Kent
State trials? Why should we students give our
money for their defense? We aren't involved.
But that's just it--we ARE involved!
The Ohio Grand Jury found the National
Guard blameless for the deaths at Kent State
and said a major cause of the campus disorders was administrative permissiveness and
laxity in discipline (sounds a little like Spiro,
doesn't it).
Any decision made at the trials of the Kent
State students will set a precedent that will
be used in other court cases like it. That is
why it's important for us to get involved.

The Student Senate is now considering sending
aid to the Kent students, but they need your
views in order to make the decision that will
reflect the majority feeling of the student body.
But it is difficult to get a true majority opinion.
One of the problems is lack of communication. When one LCC student was asked what
he thought about sending aid to the Kent students,
he said he thought the government was aiding
students too much now! This is the main problem on this campus--lack of communication.
And lack of communication breed~ apathy.
The proposal to send aid to the Kent state
students is on the agenda for the next Senate
meeting (this Thursday). Whether you are for
or against the proposal, attend the meeting and
voice your views. This is the only way the
Senate can possibly know if they' re doing what
you want.
•
But . if you don't voice your views to your
Senator or at the Senate meeting---SHUT UP!
You have no right to gripe after the fact.

LCC election really "off year"
Today the nation is voting on their representatives in government for the next two years.
Tomorrow, the ASB elections will be held.
Both could be considered ''off-year" elections.
In the national elections, the Republicans are
trying to gain seats in the Senate and House of
Representatives in order to make it easier to
pass President Nixon's proposed legislation.
The consensus is that there will be a very light
voter turnout. After all, we're not voting for
the President.
The same is true of the LCC elections. Sen-

ate seats are all that are to be voted on. The
presidential election won't be until this spring.
And as usual, a light turnout is expected.
Out of 25 possible positions open in the Senate, only eight have been filed for. Of these,
only three are actual battles; the rest of the
nominees are running unopposed and will automatically win.
I wonder what would happen if they held an
election and nobody voted? Government by default--again!

Students' Forum
by Raymond L. Stubbs
Freedom for everybody or freedom for nobody
Those words once thundered
from the lips of a so called
"Black Mi Ii tan t," whose untimely death tore him from the
arms of his beloved country and
people. His name- Malcolm X is not that important. Only his
far-reaching words should remain fast in the minds of those
understanding him or seeking
truth as I and many others see
it.
Now, five years past, comes
the same thunderuous cry from
the lips of a large body of people at a recent symposium held
at the University of Oregon. The
cry for freedom rang out from
all, but the ways and means of
bringing about such a change was
placed up for question.
Upon entering the Ballroom it
was crystal clear to my eye
that the public was not in attendance. For as the famous speakers left, so did the audience that is, the small percentage
that had taken the time to sit in
witness. There existed at times
only enough people to give reason for the speakers to remain
themselves. But every member of
the power structure seemed to
realize that there existed a problem, they just don't seem to have
time to hear it from those affected. Harry Edwards, Asst.

Prof. at Cal. stated, "Racism is
controlled by those people that
are on the top and got there
through the exploitation of others;
these people cannot or will not
allow themselves to hear or care,
for why should they give up a
Golden Goose." Art Pearl, Professor of Education at the U of
0, mentioned the fact that whites
only compose one-sixth of t he
world population and therefore,
can nevc win a racist war. Maybe the structure thinks more ir
terms of foreign crisis than ir
those existing in their own coun •
try. In order to illustrate what
racist war is, Dennis Banks
Leader of the American India1
Movement, stated in illustrativE
form that Agnew travels abou1
the country justifying the U.S.
involvement in Asia by mentioning a treaty made by thE
country having been broken, bui
what of all of the broken treaties

with the Indians, he questioned,
There was of course a great
deal of profanity used by some,
w hi c h I felt was justified, especially when one is to consider
the number of years that the minority people have been exploited.
That comprises a hell of a lot
of anger locked within the minds
of those exploited.
History has in the past shown
the manner in which revolts progress. Why even the American
Revolution was patterned much
the same as that which is developing today. First, there existed a tone of quiet protest;
second, came the vocal and militant protest; third, when none of
that action brought ab o u t a
change, the people of this country (mainly White) went into the
great revolution which defied the
most powerful nation of that time.
Now, today, the same type of
action is erupting.

Tickets on sale for "New Haven"
Tickets are now on sale for
the Fall student production "We

complex and a few individuals
in the Air Force who decide,
on their own, to bomb Minneapolis, New Haven and other towns
that strike their fancy.
The play is directed by George
Lauris, who is new this year to
the LCC Performing Arts Department.
"New Haven" w i 11 open November 13, and play Nov.14, 19,
20 and 21 at the Forum Theatre.

Community College, 4000 East
30th Avenue, Eugene, Oregon.
Students and members of the
community may call the college Box Office at 747-4501, ext.

310.
The play contains a potpourri
of broad slap-stick humor and
psychological undercurrents about the life of meri that serve
in the Air Force, but at the
same time the audience will also
see the serious side of this
play by Joseph Heller (author of
"Catch 22 11 ) in the militaristic
comings and goings of the men
in "We Bombed in New Haven."

Open discussion

Communication topic of meeting
Due to time linitations at the
regular Student Senate meeting on
oct. 20, and to the need for further discussion, a special Student
Senate meeting was called for
Oct. 27 to discuss the problem
of student involvement in student
government affairs. All interested people were invited to attend the meeting.
The problem of student-student government communications
was discussed in the Oct. 20
meeting by several people now
running for senatorial positions.
they are concered because many
students to whom they have talked
are not even aware that Lane has
a Student Senate.
One student attending the meeting Tuesday said, "I don't see
where it (student government) is
relative to me. I get the feeling that they aren't doing anything
for me. The question is, then,
what can the student government do for me?"
After the communication problem was made evident to all
senators, discussion was opened
to suggestions to increase student awareness.
The primary suggestion was
that senators by allowed three to
five minutes at the beginning of
each of their classes on the
Friday follow!ng Senate meetings
to let students know what has
happened in the meeting and to
get feedback from them.
It was proposed that the suggestion be taken to the LCC Instructional Council for consideration, but no decision was made
on this action. It was also suggested that senators should talk
to their instructors individually
and ask permission for this time
allotment.
It was also pointed out that
last year a closed circuit TV
system was set up from the
Board Room to the cafeteria, so
students could vie·w Senate meetings. It was suggested that this
system be reinstated for students to watch Student Senate
and committee me et in gs they

might be interested in but don't
wish to attend in person. One
problem, however, is that although the Senate has paid its
half on the TV ·hook-up charge,
the staff has not yet paid their
allotment.
Better publication of ,scheduled
Student Senate meetings and the
information that anyone may attend is also planned. Another
idea concerned senators speaking
in the cafeteria about what is
happening.
Getting student feedback on issues is a major concern of the
Senate. Each senator's job, individually, is to get feedback from
his department. It was suggested
that senators, in addition, attend
depatmental meetings and relate
student ideas to their departments in this way.

Letter
to the
Editor
Dear Editor:
Students are rioting on campuses. Young people have become dissidents. All is lost. The
younger generation will ruin the
country. So think those people
"over 30." As a matter of fact,
I was beginning to think so myself, as I'm over that "30" dividing line.
But wait! Today I had occasion
to withdraw an ad I was going
to run in The Torch, hoping to
trace a lost wallet. Before the
ad could run I was notified that
my wallet had been returned, intact! Including even the money.
So I wish to thank whoever did
this act. Not for returning my
belongings, but for returning my
faith in mankind.

ROTC c ass

ROTC REPRESENTATIVES TALK TO STUDENTS
about the ROTC program. The representati~es
were on campus Thursday and Friday, Oct. 29
Should LCC have ROTC lectures on campus? Who decides?
What is the process by which a
credit course is approved?
Where does the President stand?
What role can student government
play? These _and other questions
are discussed in the fallowing
articles.
by Tom Purvis
For the past four ye a rs,
attempts have been made to es.;
tablish Reserve Officer Training
Crops (ROTC) on the campus of
LCC.
Thursday and Friday of last
week saw recruiters from the
U of O campus set up an information table in the concourse
of the Center Building, and this
year's effort was under way.
In no time at all, another table
was set up a short distance away
with petitions which read "We,
the undersigned, do not w i sh
ROTC on this campus in any
form!"
The two sides of the issue had
materialized, and students and
staff stopped by to voice their
views.
When it was over, Friday at
4:00 p.m., 23 Lane students had
indicated they would sign up for
ROTC if it were offered, and
some 320 students signed petitions favoring no ROTC involvement at all.
But what do these figures mean
and where does it go from here?
Mark Parrish, an LCC student,
is against ROTC at Lane. When
he walked through the Center
Building on Thursday morning,
he found uniformed cadets seated
behind a table answering questions and signing up potential
LCC students. He looked around,
and seeing no visible opposition,
grabbed a table. With .the help

raws oppos1tlon

and 30, to investigate student interest in an
ROTC program.

of the student activities people,
he set up the opposition himself.
In Parrish's view, ROTC has
no place on a two-year campus.
He also fears, as do many of
those who signed his petitions,
that ROTC is a volatile enough
issue to polarize this campus to
the point of v i o 1e n c e should
another "Cambodia" occur. He
feels the 320 names he collected
on petitions constitutes a powerful argument against ROTC on a
basically apathetic campus.
Dave Holst, another LCC student and Senator from Language
Arts, feels that LCC students
should have the right to ROTC
training if they so desire. He
points out that as the situation
now e xi st s, LCC students must
pay University registration fees
in order to get credit for their
ROTC training while attending the
rest of their classes at LCC.
ROTC is a four year program, as
one of the cadets explained, and
if a transfer student here wants to
participate in the program he
should be able to do so.
How does LCC's administration view the prospect of ROTC
on campus?
LCC administrators feel it is
inappropriate to express their
personal view of ROTC. However, they are concerned with the
process through which ROTC, or
any other course, is established.
"My concern," said Jack Carter, Dean of Students, "is that
students have a process by which
they can express their feelings or
desires and that that p r o c e s s
should be insured for everybody."
"There are those on campus
whose job it is to establish curriculum. It's my feeling that this
matter should go to them just as
any o the r curriculum matter
would," stated LCC President
Eldon Schafer.
"I would be surprised," com-

mented Gerald Rasmussen,
Associate Dean of Instruction,
"to see any course originated at
this point become a cr~dit course
before at least next Fall Term."
Dean Rasmussen explained the
process for establishing a credit
course at LCC.
Re quests for new c red it
courses usually come from departments, although according to
LCC policy anyone can initiate
The first step is to
change.
make a formal presentation to
the Curriculum Comm it tee,
which is a student-staff committee. All aspects of the course,
including impact, location, instructor and department, will be
considered by the Curriculum
Committee.
If the course is approved, it
moves on to the In s t r u ct ion al
Council, where a judgment is
made as to whether the course
fits with school philosophy or
budget. The overall worth of
the c o u rs e is debated. If approved, it moves to the administration--to the President and the
College Cabinet--w here it is
again evaluated. Finally, if endorsed by the Cabinet, the proposal goes to the Board of Education.
If the Board approves (and at
this point, they probably would,
owing to the amount of research
already done), the course is then
submitted to the State Department of Education. Their job is
essentially twofold: 1) to approve
or disapprove and 2) decide
whether the course is re-imburseable, that is, if the cost will be
partially u n d e r w r it t e n by the
state.
At each step in this process,
views of interested parties as to ·
the desirability of the course will
be heard. Although the Student
Senate has no official power, its
recommendation would be con~
sidered in debate on the proposed
course.
So the process of initiating a
credit course is a long one.
Never before has ROTC gone beyond the information table state,
and there is little reason to suspect it will this time. In these
times when ROTC is such a
volatile issue, it would be interesting to see how ROTC would
fare through ttie process. Perhaps Mr. Holst and Mr. Parrish
will afford us that opportunity.

STUDENTS OPPOSING ROTC set up a table to explain to students
why they shouldn't join the ROTC program and give them a balanced
(Photo by Hewitt Lipscomb)
view of the program.

• •

A tremor of excitement could
be felt around the LCC campus
on Oct. 29 and 30.
The reason? Opposing tables
set up by the bookstore stairs,
one table representing ROTC,

the other representing students
in opposition to ROTC.
Language Arts Senator Dave
Holst presented the possibility
of bringing ROTC on to the LCC
campus to the Student Senate
as an "information item only"
on Oct. 22. Senators then went
out in search of student feedback on the issue. They ran
into everything from complete
opposition to the idea of complete agreement; the predominant
reaction to the matter, however,
was "Why should I care?"
The voices of the truly cone e r n e d students were heard,
though, on Thursday and Friday. The tables buzzed throughout the two days; friendly talks,
serious discussions, and heated
arguments resulted. Word passed quickly and the people monitoring the tables found themselves explaining their side's
positions and possibilities time
and time again.
The ROTC representatives
from the U of O were on campus to answer questions about
their program and to find out
if there is sufficient interest
among LCC students to warrant starting a class at Lane.
Sufficient interest, it was said,
would be indicated if over twelve students said they would like
to take the course. Their signup sheet read "If Army ROTC
were offered at Lane Community
College I would be interested
in taking it."
ROTC men stressed that signing the sheet was not a commitment. "They are not signing up for ROTC," they said.
"We're only interested in seeing how many people would be
interested in taking the class."
Petitions at the other table,
a n d circulated throughout the
school, said "We the undersigned
do not want an ROTC program
of any kind at Lane Community
College."
Mark Parrish, one of the nonROTC table watchers, saidpeople
were signing the opposing ROTC

petitions for varied reasons. Among these reasons is the usual
outcry against a militaristic organization on campus. Another
reason, Parrish said, is that
'' a lot of people consider the
ROTC an extremely provocative
institution and they f e e 1 that
if we had an ROTC class on
campus it might create a violent situation. Basically,· they
don't want to see LCC engulfed
in tear gas." other reasons for
opposition were that it seemed
"unreasonable to have an ROTC
program on a two-year vocational college campus," and the
idea that perhaps Lane could
work out a deal with the U of
0 where LCC students would
attend ROTC at the U of 0
on an LCC tuition and credit
arrangement.
By late afternoon Friday,
ROTC promoters were well over
their goal of twelve students,
with a total of 22 expressing
interest by 3:00 p.m. They stated they thought this number
is enough to indicate sufficient
student interest in the prospective class to the various LCC
committees and boards to which
the ROTC proposal will be presented.
Three petitions with 100 names
each had been filled bv those opposing ROTC at Lane by 3:00
p.m. on Friday. These petitions
will be presented as evidence of
opposition t o the prospective
class.
No major problems in the area
of dissent were encountered by
representatives at either table
during the time they were set
up.

PET project recruits voe teachers
for -community college programs
by Jon Haterius

An effort to find vocational instructors for an increasingly
growing c o m m unity college
school system in the state is
taking place at LCC,
Preservice Education of Teachers (PET) is a teacher recruitment-training enterprise
aim.._e_d .. at preparmg people now
employed in business and industry to serve as community college vocational instructors. The
PET operation 1s sponsored by
the Oregon Hoard of Education,
financed by the Federal Government, administered by Lane
Community College and will function as a cooperative program in
finding teachers for Lane, Chemeketa, Linn-Benton, Umpqua, and
Southwestern Oregon Community
Colleges.
PET is a program which has
as its goal the recruitment of
people who are highly skilled in
a vocational field to participate
in a teacher training program.
These people will be workers in
their own right who will train
either part-time or full-time outside of their jobs to become
community college teachers.
In addition to the search for
quality vocational teachers, PET
is involving students in helping
find future teachers.
Richard Earl, Coordinator for
the PET project in Oregon at
LCC says, "The teaching profession has exibited rather negative feelings about qualitative evaluation of teachers by the students. PET will rely on students for input with respect to
qualities characteristic of good
teachers." Earl feels it is unique
in the selection of future teachers
in the state. '' Up to now,'' he said,
"the school system was the sole
judge of what a good teacher
should be--but in addition to this
judgement, students can now he°Ip
select their own teachers." "You
know," continued LCC's coordinator, "some teachers have all the
knowledge to teach--but fail to
communicate or relate to students."
Earl is enthusiastic about the
PET project because of the philosophy of student involvement in
the selection of future teachers
and the procurement of the tea-

chers from busin~ss, industry
and the community.
Since the PET project was organized by the State Board of •
Education September 21, and LCC
was selected to coordinate the
state program, Earl says "It is
of urgent importance that students be called on for an input as PET curriculm is developed."
As a student, what would you
like to have teachers know or
feel and understand and believe
before they enter the classroom
for the first time? Or, what
should they NOT believe or feel
or assume?
"PET training will have real
and lasting impact on the behavior and attitudes of tomorrows vocational . instructors,''
says Earl! "We are in a group
oriented system of education but
there are ways of adequately
meeting needs of individuals,"
he added. Earl thinks PET is
in an important position in this
respect.
PET is trying to incorporate .
the thinking of students into the •

"You shouldn't keep gems to

Schafer, LCC president.
He says it is "good business"
to report back any relevant action which has taken place on a
business trip.
On Oct. 15 and 16 President
Schafer attended a community
college President's meeting at
Treasure Valley Community College in Ontario, Oregon. Such a
meeting is held four or five times
a year at various community colleges throughout the state.
These community college executive officers discuss problems:
and general operation, propose
legislation and compare notes. In
his report to the College Cabinet
Oct. 21, President Schafer told
members that his group may propose a hike in Oregon's cigarette tax, to be used for support
of community colleges. The
money would be used for paying
community college debts and to
finance campus construction projects. This tax _would double from

the present 4~ per pack to 8~,
and approximately $12 million
would be raised yearly. From
such a tax, LCC could possibly
receive $3 million in the next
two years.
Oregon's cigarette tax is the
fourth lowest in the U.S. North
Carolina's 2~ tax is at the bottom. Higher on the list is Hawaii,
at 40~ and New Hampshire with
34~. In 38 states it is 8~ to
16~. "If approved," Dr. Schafer
said, the tax hike would be implemented during the next biennium." It is considered a "nuisance tax," because it doesn't
hit the public as a whole. Dr.
Schafer believes that this legislation would have an excellent c ha n c e of passing. "The
Community College is considered a favorite son of the state
legislature. They formed us and
watch us and they want to see
their son succeed."
"No, I am not a cigarette
s mo k e r, " replied President
Schafer when asked if he indulges in the habit. Although he
doesn't smoke, he says, however,
"My wife does and should quit."

Circle K to meet
Circle K will meet Wednesday,
Nov. 4, at 12:00 noon in Administration 202. Any male LCC
student is invited to attend. The
meeting will center on rejuvenating and reorganizing the LCC
Circle K Club.
Circle K is a service organization through which college men
can find a means of responsible
student action in their communities and a more active involvement in the life of their campus. Their concerns result in
very direct personal service, and
involvement in "nuts and bolts"
activities that help people and
serve the campus and community
as clubs perceive needs they can
effectively meet.
Cii;,cle K is a practical laboratory for the development of
personal leadership skills and
the growth of personal leadership skills and the growth of
personal initiative in analyzing
the needs of our environment and
attempting to find solutions for
them.
Circle K is also a means of
forming friendships, working in
a common cause with other students, and simply having fun.
Social functions are important
for a well rounded club. Parties and other purely social club
events are recommended, and the
weekly club meetings are designed to be educational and interesting.

PET at LCC is looking for about 30 future teachers for community colleges in Oregon who
also are working either parttime or full-time in t h e i r re spective job careers.
If you're looking for a place
to become significantly involved
and you're interested in Oregon's
effort to procure and prepare
new vocational teachers, PET
seems to be where it's at.
The training program will begin Nov. 30 and will continue
until mid-June. Saturday classes
will be held at LCC and at other
institutions nearest the trainee's
home one evening each week.
Students with suggestions for
the selection of future teachers

GCY .Lib8rCitlon group mee·ts at u Of ·o

by Jon Haterius

Thursday night, Oct. 29, male
and female liberators met on the
University of Oregon campus.
A part of the_movement commonly known as the "Gay Liberation " the individuals met to
disJuss goals in forming a Eugene Gay Liberation organization--hopefully on the U of O
campus.
A number of Portland State
College students came to speak
to local students about forming
a Gay Liberation office on the
U of O campus. Two weeks ago,
Portland State College granted
recognition and office space for
the homophiles attending that institution.
Because of overflow attendance, the meeting at the Erb
Memorial Union was moved from
a lecture room to a partitionea
section of the cafeteria to accommodate the nearly 100 people.
Those who came to the first
Gay Liberation meeting in Eugene were primarily students
from the u of O and LCC. There
were several older people and
possibly a handful that came just
out of curiosity.
The first speaker to address
the group was a male student
from Portland :State who said
"one of the first things we have
to overcome is the stereotyped
role that 'straight' society places
on homosexuals" -- refering to
the image homosexuals have in
this country. "For the male,"
said the Portland State student,
"a high-pitched voice, effeminate clothing, or the limp wrist
bit, and for the female homosexual - a 'butch' appearance
and overly mannish manner." He
pointed out that possible 90 per
c e n t of the homosexual c o m munity are no different in appearance than members of
straight society. Of the 100 or
so people in attendance at the
Gay Liberation meeting, there
did not appear to be one "butch"
female or "limp-wrist" male-all in fact had the demeanor of
what we would call "straight"
society.
The · recurrent theme of this
minority group meeting was the
group trying to be accepted into
society and the discussion of
implementing changes to bring
about that acceptance, in addition
to discussing trying to break
down communication barriers
with the public, those present discussed finding space somewherepossibly on the U of O campusfor meetings, social events, or
simply a p 1a c e to come and
"rap."
A Portland State student encouraged students in Eugene to
form their own liberation or-

ganization and pointed out that
'' A majority of people are bisexual in society at large, and
10 per cent of the general popu1at ion are homosexuals (referring to the Kinsey report of
1948), so we are a minority
group just as the Chicanos, Negroes and the poor in this
country." He noted however, that
the one unique aspect of this minority group just as the Chicanos,
Negroes and the ooor in this
country. " He noted however, that
the one unique aspect of this
minority group was ''being Gay
crosses all social, economic, occupational and age groups, contrary to some of the other minority groups in our country that
are seeking a place in the sun,
and social recognition. We have
strength for that reason alone."
After the group broke up at
the Erb, many participants went
to the Odyssey Coffee House for
small group discussions on how
tc go about finding a regular
place to meet and ways of implementing changes in our society for their group. At a coffee
table I sat next to a girl we shall
call Irene. Irene had been married for some time and has two
children. However, she has been
living sexually as well as socially, with a "girl friend" of
hers for two years. I asked her
about her new life style. "I love
her, and I can identify more
with her because of that reason,
than I can with a man. It is really
that simple. I don't feel a bit
ashamed to be known as a homosexual," she said. "I feel more
open about it now and have more
peace of mind since I have publicly admitted mv so called 'hangup.' My boss knows about my
personal life now and I feel that
I can relate better to my friends
and neighbors now that I have
revealed my personal life." The
Gay Lib movement has helped
her, she feels, with what used to
be a personal problem. "The anxiety comes from trying to hide
the facts of your personal life,"
she said. "Now I feel free and
part of society."
A couple of men in their early
20' s sat ~t a table nearby, holding
each other's hand. I asked them
what problems they have had in
getting along in society. Carl,
a good looking blonde-haired
young man with sideburns said,
' ' To begin with it is harder for
a homosexual man to integrate
into society than it is for a
homos~xual woman. Our society
says a man is to be dominant,
not to cry, to be very manly,
and to 'make it' with every girl
that walks by. I think that our
society is 'hung-up' on this stereotype of what a man should
be,'' said Carl.

One thing seemed to bother
him. "You take a regular guy,"
he said, '' 'straight ' society
doesn't get ·•up-tight' if they see
two guys holding hands nearly
as much as some guy who is
implicitly homosexual and is afraid to admit it to himself or
anyone else. This is the kind of
guy that is on the defensive
all the time about seeing guys
holding hands or anything like
that. 'Straight' society is not
nearly as 'up-tight' as the latent
homosexual who is fighting his
own psycno1ogical' sexual battle
within himself."
I asked Carl about his job.
"I used to hide my personal life
from my employer," he said,
"but since I have been in Gay
Liberation for the last year I
have been more open about my
personal life. I told my employer last year about my homosexuality, and was fired a few
days later from my part-time
waiter job at a restaurant. Since
I was fired I found another job
and I have told my employer
about myself. This employer told
me that he didn't care about my
homosexuality just as long as I
did my job."
"Unfortunately," Carl continued, .. society is still caught up
in the notion that the 'hang-up'
is homosexuality--but I believe
that the 'hang-up' is really people's attitude to it."
Carl said in Europe and in Asia
men can hold hands in public and
people do not get upset. "In fact,"
he said, '' some countries in South
America and elsewhere encourage expressions of love between males first and it is looked
upon as the making of a man to
be able to do so." "But you try
that in this country!" he added.
While interviewing the men
and women in the Odyssey Coffee House, I was impressed with
the ''empathy" and understanding
the sexes had for one another.

lation will have had sexual relations with another male sometime during their life, for the
females, about half that number.
In addition, from four to ten
per cent of males and females
in the U.S. are homosexual. This
represents between 80 thousand
and 200 thousand persons. If Kinsey's research of 1941 and 1948
is correct, LCC with 5,500 students, has between 220 and 550
homophiles.
Kinsey reported that 46 per
cent of the U.S. population is
bisexual - responding to either
sex. Taken as a whole then,
over half of the adult male and
female population in the U.S.
can or could respond to members
of their own sex under certain

to meet at Lane Nov. 5
About 200 of Lane County's high
school technical-vocational teachers and administrate.rs will
meet with their LCC counterparts Thursday evening, Nov. 5,
to talk about how they might
be able to work closer together.
The object of the session, hosted by LCC, is to help the participants get to know each other
and to coordinate high school and
college programs to eliminate
overlapping and duplication of
instruction.
The program is to begin at
5 p.m. in Forum 301 with short
talks by three LCC instructors
on individualized learning packages. Rick Romanek will describe
the ''package" in electronics,
Howard Dull will talk about autodiesel mechanics and Evan Alford will describe those used in
teaching communication skills.
At 6:30 the group will move
to the Center Building cafeteria

"I can dig Gay guys because I
know they are not after me as
most guys are for just physical
reasons." The same reasons
were expressed by a male we
shall call Howard. "I feel I
don't have to think in terms of
making it with these girls--we
can visit and get to know each
other as people and as human
beings, not just as physical things
to be used." Howard said he felt
particularly close to the girls in
Gay Liberation in Portland because they were all working on
common ground for the same
purposes.
The purposes of Oregon's Gay
Liberation, not unlike the purposes Women's Liberation or
of many of the minority groups
in the United States, are: 1)
promote understanding and break
some stereotyped ideas the general population share about homophiles and their way of life,
2) to try to bring about more
open communication wit h society, 3) and to try to find a
place where male and female
homophiles can meet and socialize in Eugene.

The ,impact of the Kent State
arrests has reached LCC's campus. Many people have been upset
about the ASB Executive Board's
call for contributions. The story
in the last TORCH needs to be
clarified. The facts leading up
to these indictments need to be
publicized.
1. The special grand jury that
indicted the "Kent 25" was appointed by the governor of the
state of Ohio.
2. The FBI report on Kent
State differs from the report by
the special grand jury.
The FBI report claims that
the national guard troops ''opened
fire because of other guardsmen
opening fire or because they
thought an order to open fire was
given by the national guard commander." The FBI report also
stated that the guardsmen's lives
were not endangered. The New
York Times also claimed the FBI
report indicated six guardsmen
could be charged in connP"tion
with the shootings.
3. A special Senate sub-committee also investigated the killings at Kent State. Findings of
the Senate expressed concern
with the placing of blame. They
felt that both sides had to carry
their share of the fault.
The following is a quotation of
the two senators from Ohio on
May 5, 1970, the day after the
deaths at Kent State.
SENATOR WILLIAM B. SAXBE
(REP.) OF OHIO
"The background of this event
is something that has been building up for a long time. Last
week, at Ohio State, there was
disruption and violence. The word
was out, as early as three days
before, that this was going to
happen at Kent State. There were
people who obviously felt that
this was organized, and some
were going to be present from
out of town.
''The Ohio National Guard had
been on strike duty because of
the Teamster's wildcat strikes
in nothern Ohio. Some have reported that they had less than
three hours of sleep in the 48
hours before the confrontation
at Kent State.
"They carried live ammunition. I do not believe that we
are ever going to send our troops
out to face violence without live
ammunition, nor do I recommend
it.
"Of course, the discipline of
handling live am munition is
s om et hi n g which is hard to
train.... I saw the great danger
of permitting men with little or
no t rain in g to face what they
thought was imminent danger.
"When confrontation developed
on the campus and the students
resisted, instead of moving out,
the Guardsmen advanced in a line,
firing tear gas. The tear gas
was effective and the students
fell back. Then, as a group of
spectators and other demonstrators moved in behind the Guardsmen, in such a way · that they
felt it endangered their position,
the Guardsmen reversed and
, started back against the other
group. Then the ones who had
given way in the face of the
first movement started filtering
back behind the Guardsmen again,
hurling objects and giving abuse.
''Then something happened •..
''Someone thought he was fired
upon, or someone thought he was
in danger of his life, and the
first shot was fired.
" ... Here were 30 Guardsmen
surrounded by over a thousand
rioters, or people who were adding to the crowd, and they felt
endangered, and the first shot
was fired.

FEEDBACK

"Then 7 or 8 men fired their
pieces, and 4 peopJ e were dead
and several wounded.
"I say that such a confron- .
tation is inevitable ...
"As a result, we have a situation now that is going to spread,
I am afraid.
"We have made students recognize the fact that there is
danger involved.
"The students that I talked to
in my office said, 'Well, if they
had told us that we might get
hurt, this would not have happened.'
"In other words, up until now,
there have been two sets of rules.
A Guardsmen or policeman is
fair game for insults, for being
hit with rocks, for being attacked, but ..• cannot fight back. It was
not playing the game for them to
do violence to those who attacked
them. And it came as a complete
surprise.
"I suppose that we will now
see revolution recognized for
what it is---revolution.
"We are going to be forced
to take sides, if we have not
already done so.
"But at least this tragedy
should bring home •.. that there is
danger, that people will be hurt,
and that people will be killed ... "
SENATOR STEPHEN M. YOUNG
(DEM.) OF OHIO

"No excuse can be given for
the killing of these young men ·
and women by National Guardsmen. Their taking of human life
has no justification. National
Guardsmen, with little training,
should not have been permitted
to have rifles loaded with live
ammunition and fixed bayonets on
a university campus. Those who
ordered this action must accept
the responsibility for its consequences ....
"The stage was set for the
recent violence at Kent State and
other colleges throughout the land
by President Nixon's decision to
invade Cambodia without a formal declaration of war by the
Congress ...
"Is it any wonder that the disillusioned young people of the nation, after receiving promise after promise for the last year
and a half that we would withdraw from Vietnam, reacted violently to the President's expansion of the war into Cambodia?
Then, to compound that tragic
error, President Nixon publicly
referred to student protestors as
"bums" and contrasted them with
young men fighting in Vietnam ...
'' The four young men and women who were killed at Kent
State Monday were not themselves engaging in any violent or
unlawful demonstrations. They
were not bums. If similar tragedies are to be avoided in the
future, the cause for this tragedy
must be looked into ...
"Many important questions remain to answered ... Who gave the
Guardsmen to order to carry live
ammunition in their guns? Who,
if anyone, gave Guardsmen the
right to fire at individual demonstrators? What kind of training did these young men have in
controlling civil disorders?
Could local and state policemen
have done the job without help
from the National Guard?
***
In the wake of the trouble at
Kent State many colleges and
universities passed stricter personal conduct codes to govern
students and faculty. Also, state
legislatures, in order to appease
the public's demand to crack down
on student demonstrations and
disorders, have passed laws and
regulations to cover STUDENTS
under a special class .. In other
words, students are something
less than a normal citizen with
full protection of the law (what

little there is left). To cite an
example, the following is taken
from a college press service
release:
OHIO CAMPUS DISORDER LAW:
A CASE IN POINT
by Gordon Harman
COLUMBUS, Ohio (CPS) In the
wake of the deaths of four Kent
State University students and nationwide campus disorders last
spring, the Ohio Legislature enacted Amended House Bill #1219,
The Campus Disorder Law. It
is similar in aim to many bills
passed across the nation in reaction to campus activism. It is
repressive.
"By acting as concerned educators who are genuinely fearful
of the deterioration of the univerisites, the Legislature managed to convince the public that
these measures are not only
necessary, but constitutional.
"The special procedure for
suspension outlined by this bill
provides that a person be given
an impartial hearing within aperiod of five to fifteen days after
his arrest. According to Howard
Besser, Vice Chairman of the
Ohio chapter of the American
Civil Liberities Union, this is
not enough time to prepare a
defense for a case of this type.
''The person adjudicating this
hearing will be an attorney admitted to practice in the state
of Ohio. He will be s~lected by
the Ohio Board of Regents and
students will have no voice in
the selection.
"The hearing is to be adversary- in nature, but no mention
is made of just who is to opose
the accused. The student has the
right to have an attorney but
none will be provided if he cannot afford legal fees.
"If the accused if found guilty,
an appeal ca11 be made to the
Court of Common Pleas on questions of law and fact within 20
days. There is no provision for
a written record of the proceedings to be kept, and according to
Besser, "Without this record
any appeal would be virtually
useless."
"There is no provision for any
written statements, such as a
statement from the referee giving the rationale for his deci- .
sion.
'' Provision is made that in the
absence of a waiver of the right
against compulsory self-incrimination, the testimony of the
accused given at the hearing may
not be subsequently used against
him in any criminal proceeding.
According to a position paper
released by the KSU student body
president Craig Morgan, who was
among those indicted, state laws
such as #1219 cannot determine
the admissibility of evidence to
a federal court.
"Because this bill also states
that the hearing shall be public,
although only the news media
must be admitted, any statements
made by a person in his own
defense could be used against him
in the prosecution of a federal
crime, such as one of the various anti-riot statutes.
"Special procedures for suspension are not to be construed
as limiting the authority of the
board of trustees or the president
of a college or university to suspend a person, provided that he
is given a written notice of the
reasons for his suspension and a
hearing is held within a reasonable time thereafter. 'This,' says
Besser, 'completely voids the
person's right to a hearing before suspension previously established in the bill.'
'' The bill specifies that after
the criminal trial in colilmon
pleas court, if the person is
found guilty he shall be dismissed
for a period of one calendar
year in addition to the penalties imposed by the court.
"In the event he is found in-

nocent, he will be reinstated in the first amendment, or his acgood standing and the record of tivities could have constituted

CANDIDATE'S FORUM
Ralph Steadman

To the Editor of the Torch, the
Administration, and the Student
Body:
When I started writing this it
occurred to me that everything
I was saying had been said before, about 100 times. Well I
couldn't think of any catchy little
phrase, so I guess you will have
to hear the same old thing one
more time.
My main goal, if I am elected,
is to try my best to cure the
disease this school has -Apathy.
To make you better informed is
probably one way. But I think
most of the work lies in your
hands. You have to want to know
what goes on in the Senate before it does any good for me to
try and communicate to you. Do
you see what I am trying to
say , IT'S NOT UP TO ME
IT'S UP TO YOU!!
'
I will do my best if you do
elect me. I just hope you do
your best too.
See, I told you, it's been said
before.
Ralph Steadman
Senator at Large

Lorraine Hein

Lorraine Hein is a candidate
for the office of Freshman Senator for Physical Education.
Lorraine has a good background in physical education and
understands the problems in running an athletic program.
She feels she is qualified to
represent the Physical Education department, and if elected
will do her best to see that
the Senate is informed of the
problems and goals of the P.E.
department. She will also see
that the Student Senate is run
in such a way that it will best
benefit the students.

Roberto Loredo
My name is Roberto F. Loredo. I am a candidate for the
Student Senate at Lane Community College. The department I
am running for is the Physical
Education Department, This de-

partment is confronted with many
problems.
The main problem this deP art men t faces is financial.
There is a lack of money for
athletic activities. Other problems that this department is confronted with stem from the financial problem. For example,
additional facilities are needed
for physical education, but the
lack of funds keeps these facilities on the drawing board.
In seeking a Senate position,
I am interested in getting involved in school activities. I
am also interested in furthering
my knowledge about student government. I f I should become a
member of the Student Senate I
will do my best to meet the needs

more often than not they are
eager to get in on the action
and help out.
I am running for the office
of Sophomore Senator for Mass
Communications. If elected, I
will do all that I can to help
make students better aware of
their student government and
what parts they can play in it.
I have been actively attending
Student Senate and Board meetings since the beginning of school
this year. I am a members of
the LCC Academic Council, and

Victor Giglio

The student body of Lane Community College needs a voice in
d e c i s i o n s and p o 1i c y of administrative problems on this
campus. The feelings of students
on these issues should be taken
into consideration concerning
changes in school policy and
not ignored.
Motivations of students awareness to problems both administrative .and social shoul d be
intensified. Effort must be made
to bring all students into the
realm of school activities, because if students don't take an
active interest in their student
government, a small coalition of
students will! This coalition of
minority interests will use student funds and power of office
for their own individual motives
which will not benefit the student
body as a whole.
Low cost housing, convenient
to LC C, should be developed
either by private interests or by
the school itself. Lane Community College is steadily increasing in size and will continue to grow in the future years.
A college of this size needs adequate housing for students.
This problem should be dealt with
in the near future before surrounding property is taken up by
commerical interests not concerned with the growth at Lane
Community College!
These problems should be
given attention by student government in conjunction with the
administration and other agents
who are capable of solving them.

Six attend OCCSA convention
by Karen Von Effling
Six LCC students and · their
adviser attended the fall Oregon Community College Student
Association (OCCSA) convention
Oct. 15-17 at Astoria, Oregon.
The convention was held at
Clatsop Community College in
Astoria. Those people representing LCC were ASB President
Warren Coverdell, Senator-atLarge Dan Rosen, Senate Secretary Pam Neiswanger, ASB
Treasurer Cherrie McMurray,
ASB First and Second Vice Presidents Bruce Nelson and Katherine Harwood, and Student Activities Director Betty Ekstrom
as adviser . The trip was
financed by Student Senate funds.
OCCSA is the student section
of the Oregon Community College
Association. Its purpose is "to
foster, promote and insure the
general well-being of community
college students." It also strives
to promote better understanding,
greater awareness, and opportunity for student involvement
in the O re go n community colleges. President of OCCSA this
year is Greg Miller from Umpqua
Community College.
The twelve Oregon schools represented at this fall's convention were Blue Mountain, Cent r a 1 0 re go n, Pendleton, Chemeketa. C 1a c km as , Clatsop,
Lane, Linn-Benton, Mt. Hood,
Portland, Southwestern and Umpqua. The number of delegates
sent ranged from 3 to 16.
LCC delegates had a choice of
such activities as general business session, presidential
workshop, activities director
workshop, and several unscheduled rap sessions on student government.
The series of resolutions approved at the convention will all
h ave s o m e effect on student
government at LCC. One ofthese
proposals was the creation of the
position of Executive Assistant
to aid the OCCSA president and
attend coordinating council meetings.
A proposal concerning out-ofdistrict fees was sent to commit•tee for consideration. It proposed that out-of-district fees be
discontinued for Oregon residents if it can be ascertained that
the transfer to take the course
is legitimate and benificial. ·This
resolution w a s brought about
when it was pointed out that at
times a student's field of academic study is interrupted as a

result of insufficient course offering at their home college and
prohibitive out-of-district fees
that keep them from transferring
to another school to take the
needed course.
Three rather important resolutions relating to out of-district fees were: 1) in-district persons have the first opportunity
to fill program vacancies, 2) outof-district fees should not be
charged students·who come from
an Oregon area where the program is not available, and 3)
a college a c c e pt in g out-ofdistrict students will be reimbursed from the appropriate state
funds for such cases as the above.
A resolution tabled until the
next OCCSA conference was the
formation of an Act Hoc Committee on Minorities and Disa d v a n t a g e d P r ob le m s and
Possible Programs.
Another resolution, called the
Nader-Raider proposal, was to
appoint a committee to gather
community college opinions on
interest in opposing individuals
and corporations that are detrimental to the public interest
in conn e c ti on with consumer
p rote c t ion and environmental
quality.
OCCSA also decided to petition OCCA to provide a budget
item for the hiring of an executive secretary for OCCSA, for
which the organization feels a
need.
It was also resolved that "student participation in the OCCA
Ann u a 1 convention be financed
with monies from the general
budget of the respective member colleges."
Individual student ID cards
were approved for coming student activities, and also approved
was a request that President
Greg Miller compile a comprehensive, relevant compendium of
OCCSA policy and give all member colleges. a copy.
It was decided that all member schools of OCCSA should
"actively pursue voter registration of their 18, 19, and 20 year
old student body and extend their
drive into the communities."
When asked what he thought of
the convention, LCC's ASB President Warren Coverdell said
"It was one of the best conventions that the OCCSA has been
able to put on for quite some
time. It is the first time that
more work than play was done."

The LCC Knights and Castles
chess club was formed last fall.
A club constitution was drafted

held an LCC school tournament,
which was quite successful, and
p 1a ye d matches with Cottage

do have a vote in the proceedings.
We also have twelve fine staunton design chess sets, ash trays,
and a room to meet--Apprenticeship 218, Mondays from 4 to

the lack of players. You say

you don't have time to play
chess? And that it takes too
much time? I say, anything that
is worth doing takes just a little
effort, and a strong competitive
mind is worth having. Of course,
if you already know how to play

LCC counselor offers kelp ,n
beating the 'numbers game'
by Erika Orchard
Steve Hanamura's office: help
in beating the "numbers game"
is available here.
The office is located in the
Counseling Center at Lane Community College and beating the
''numbers game" is Steve's way ·
of emphasizing that he and the
other 16 full-time counselors are
there to help students feel more
like individuals than mere numbers in a growing community
college.
During a typical day, itis common to see going into his office
an 18 year-old coed upset over a
test she failed during her first
quarter in college or a local mill
w o r k e r seeking advice on selecting a class that would qualify
him for job advancement. Later,
Steve might be talking with a
couple of young mothers who are
thinking about returning to school
to enter the nursing program.
This is the spectrum of ages
and interests represented by the
over 5,000 students in LCC's credit programs this fall.
Students who have sought
Steve's advice before, know they
start with a "clean slate." No
attempt is made to dig into their
backgrounds since this would be
inconsistent with the Counseling
Department's philosophy. The
counselors emphasize that they
are there to help students and to
do this, don't need or want to know
a lot about their backgrounds.
In an age of student complaints
of being stereotyped because of
hair length, and even ideas, Steve
has an added advantage in gaining
their confidence.
He is blind.
The 26 year-old counselor admits it may be easier for him to
get hone s t responses from stu -

Social Science
offers class with
flexible credits

The Social Science department
has inaugurated a program designed to let LCC students change
their minds about their courses
without total loss of credit.
Seit and Society a course which
inc 1u de s unit s of psychology,
government, employer-employee
relations, and "kitchen" or practical economics. A student is allowed to enter the course at the
beginning of any unit.
This innovation enables a student who has elected a social
science course and finds it is
too difficult, doesn't cover the information he seeks, or just isn't
his bag, to drop that course, enter Self and Society and pick up
one unit of credit for each three
weeks spent in the class.
Prior to this year a student had
to stick out a course or drop
and get no credit. This year a
student can drop a course and add
Self and Society and still obtain
one to three credits. A student
may pop in and out of the class,
taking only those units which interest him getting one unit credit
for any unit or combination of
units of three weeks. The
flexibility is almost endless.
The course has a different
instructor for each area of study.
Some of the materials will be in
Dial Retrieval, with time spent
in the dial retrieval area instead of the classroom with one
or two classes each week for
discussion or clarification of the
taped materials. Most units use
small groups to evaluate the
course and their own efforts.
If this course can help you pick
up lost units or supply inform at ion , contact Professor
Madden in the Social Science
area (third floor Center Building). Don't lose all your Social
Science credits because you have
dropped a class .

dents. He explains that sometimes a person's comments and
actions are a cover-up for his
appearance--like the stereotype
of the "jolly fat man."
But in Steve's case, he seems
to have a special gift for drawing out people and gaining their
confidence.
Rapping--a term frequently
associated with young people discussing current concerns--is his
favorite way of keeping in touch
with student thinking. He likes
to occasionally wander down to
the college cafeteria where he
may have a chance to talk with
a veteran about his Viet Nam experiences or to get in on a coffeebreak conversation.
He is constantly listening and
attempting to find ways he can
help students through the "educational system" which can block
some from achieving their goals
when they become confused and
sometimes "turned-off" by required c ours es, grades, and
regulations. His job requires
understanding and to be understanding, Steve feels he must be
alert to what students are
thinking.
Occasionally, he will startle
you by saying, ''Hey, that gal is
real_ly good looking." Then he'll
explain that someone tipped him
off! He confided, though, that he
can distinguish between light and
dark and amusingly enough can
spot blondes. "This really confuses my wife," he lightly remarked.
Steve, who is in his second
year at LCC, won't dwell on the
fact that he has been blind since
birth, but speaks openly about it
to put students at ease during the
start of each term of his Human
Relations class. He sometimes
jokes with them saying, "When
I first started taking girls out,
it was on a blind date--but she
got more than she bargained for!"
Although he is good natured,
the counselor ad mi t s that he
hasn't always been able to joke
about his blindness. Steve still
remembers an incident in a bus
station when a porter took him by
both hands and led him through a
crowd saying, "please, move
back; let it through."
"Then I reacted bitterly,'' he
admitted. '' But today I would
know just how to handle the
situation."
Steve has had many chances
to handle such situations. Like
many young people today, he has
an ambitious spirit. This brought
him from his home in California
to Linfield College in McMinnville where he majored in psychology. On campus, Steve became active in student government, added his bass voice to
the college choir, and joined a
social fraternity.
Searching for ways to meet and
interact with people, he spent one
summer at a church camp where
his job in the kitchen left him
time to get involved in camp
activities. The summer following
his college graduation, he was in-

valved in a research project
which took him to the riot-torn
sections of Newark, New Jersey,
to talk with the people living
there.
It was also at Linfield that he
met his future ·wife Sue whom he
married shortly after earning his
master's degree in counseling at
the University of Oregon and
coming to LCC last year.
The encouragement Steve received from others reflects in the
way he tries to help students who
come to him. ''It's most important for me to be able to show
them I'm genuinely interested in
helping them," he said. The
young counselor adds the conviction that "you can have the finest
facilities and still have nothing
without person al involvement
with students."
Like other college personnel,
he is faced with stacks of paperwork which he tackles with the
help of department secretaries
during the day and his wife at
home. But like many men, he
admits he can't resist Saturday
football games on TV or heading
outdoors for a walk or run.
Steve Hanamura is no newcomer to the "numbers game."
He beat the odds himself and is
now committed to helping others
get a taste of winning.

Sexual adequacy 'learned'
says Eugene psychologist
by Richard Stamp
''Sex in marriage involves two
people, and when something goes
wrong there is no such thing as
an uninvolved party," Joseph LoPiccolo, assistant professor of
psychology at the University of
Oregon, stressed at the fourth
session of the Family Life Discussion Series Oct. 29 at LCC.
Dealing in his talk with psychological causes of sexual inadequacy, LoPiccolo pointed out
that "man does not know by instinct how to mate, let alone be
a good lover. Unfortunately he
learns chiefly by trial and error."
LoPiccolo, who maintains a
private practice in Eugene and
sup e r v is es graduate student
therapists at a U of O clinic, explained that '' society takes a
negative attitude toward sex for
women."
Throughout childhood and adolescence women have often been
taught that sex is a duty which
they must perform for their
mates and that '' nice girls don't
enjoy sex or have a sex drive."
This attitude causes one of the
most common female inadequacies -- "the princess and the
prostitute syndrome," according
to LoPiccolo. He added that husbands sometimes contribute to
this problem by feeling that it
is "unfeminine" or ' 'unladylike" for their wives to want
pleasure from sex.
Another inadequacy common among women, LoPiccollocontinued, is failure to achieve orgasm. Such failure, he noted,

Men also experience "performance anxiety," LoPiccolo said,
and it may be responsible for
one of their most common difficulties "erectile failure."
S ex u a 1- adequacy involves a
"psycho-motor skill," LoPiccolo asserted, "much like
tennis or golf." He added that
premature ejaculation, another
problem common among males
problem common among males,
is a "bad muscular habit similar to lifting your head in
the middle of a golf swing."
"Sexuality is learned in man,"
LoPiccolo continued. "Very little is innate." Emphasizing that
the solution to inadequacy "lies
not with treatment, but in the
next gene ration,'' he indicated
that ''proper sex education" is
the real answer.
"No humanistics are taught
in high school or college -- just
anatomy," LoPiccolo said in criticism of present sex education
programs. He concluded that he
does not advocate the overturning of all standards for complete sexual freedom, but rather the development of'' reasonable, healthy attitudes toward
sex."
The discussion series on' 'Liking Marriage More" will conclude its sessions Thursday, Nov.
5, at 7:30 p.m. in rooms 223224 of the Apprenticeship Building. Allen Scott, Eugene psychiatrist, will speak on "Sex in
Marriage."

GEM SOCIETY

"SISTER" GEMS
Next to the diamond, the ruby
and sapphire are the hardest and
most indestructible of all gems.
Both are the mineral corundum,
and are termed "sister" gems
since they are the same species.
It is the red variety of the corundum, an oxide of aluminum,
that is called ruby by gem lovers.
The most costly are the Burma
rubies which are a dark purplish
red known as "pigeon's blood.''
Ruby is mined primarily in
Burma and Ceylon, although some
good quality ruby has been found
in North Carolina. Gems of fine
color in large sizes--over three
carats--are extremely rare and
more valuable than a diamond
of the same size. Paler rubies
are less expensive than the deep
carmine red and might more properly be termed "pink sapphire.''
Unique in the formation of the
corundum crystal is the optical
e ff e c t known as "asterims."
Small needle-like inclusions are
arranged in the crystal pattern
to produce a six-rayed star.
Thu s , we sometimes see st<1.r
sapphires and also, star rubies.
The star rubies are rarer, of
course. However,synthetic star
rubies and sapphires are now being made to help fill the demand
for this type of stone. When
sparked by diamonds and set imaginatively in fine gold, they
are quite attractive and ar less
expensive than the natural gems.

LCC basketball players
begin daily workouts

Top football, basketball teams
remain undefeated in intramurals
by Dave Harding
After two full weeks of intramural football and basketball action, the top two teams in each
sport still remain undefeated.
In football, Howard's Hotshots
(with a 3-0 record) lead in total
offense with 77 points.
Keeping pace with the leaders,
the Nimrods haven't scored a
point, but have won three straight
games on forfeits.
With a 2-1 record, Harding's
Hairlips is the only other winning team in football.
The Public Hairs are 1-1, the
Kegars and Banks Bombers are
both 1-2, while Parks' Pansies
and Burk's Bums are the only
two teams without a win.
The Pansies, second in total
offense with 41 points are 0-2,
and the Bums are 0-3. All three
of the Bums' losses were due to
forfeits, as they have thus far
failed to show up for a single
game.
For the Pansies, a leaky defense has paved the way for
their two losses. In two games
they have given up 89 points,
last in the eight team league.
They are second in total offense
with 41 points. The scoring is
there for the Pansies but some
holes need to be filled in the
defensive unit if they are to come
out of the cellar.
Going into the half-way mark
in the intramural football season,
this could be the critical point
for the top four teams.
For the Public Hairs, their
dash for the title rests strictly
on the outcome of their two
games this week. On Monday,
Nov. 2, they tackle Harding's
Hairlips (2-1), and the Hairlips
also can't afford to lose another
game. They were shut out by

the Hotshots in the opening game possible, chance at tournament

Life's observations
I bumped into my friend, Alphonso, down on Willamette and
7th the other day, and he said
"Man you look beat. What happened?''
''Nothing," I said.
"You mean a guy can look
be at , for nothing?" Alphonso
said.
'' Being a bachelor, you wouldn't understand," I said.
"Try me," said Alphonso.
"Well, it's like this," I said,
a little reluctantly, because Alphonso can really get things balled up. '' I've been sleeping on the
floor in the spare room.''
"You mean the Sprout has kicked you out of the marital bed?''
said Alphonso.
"Well," I hedged, "not exactly."
"What do you mean, not exactly," said Alphonso. "You're
sleeping on the floor ain'tcha ?"
"Well, if you'd quit interrupting I might groove you in,"
I said.
"I promise not to interrupt again," said Alphonso.
"We have this teenage cat,"
I said.
"TEENAGE cat!Youmean
there's a love triangle?" said
Alphonso.
"No," I said. "This is a pussy cat."
"Ah, yes. I know about pussy cats," said Alphonso, with a
dreamy look in his eyes, and

then he added wickedly, "At your
age, too."
"I might know I couldn't get
anything through your thick
skull," I said. "This happens to
be a legitimate pussy cat. She
has long fur and four feet equipped with claws ... "
"I understand about the
claws,'' nodded Alphonso sympathetically. "That's why you're
sleeping on the floor in the spare
room."
"No," I said. "It's because
the Sprout can't purr like a pussy
cat, and if you'll keep your yap
shut, I tell you about it."
"I ' m li s t e n in g , " said Alphonso.
"It's about time," I said, acidly, then continued. "We have

she's human. She demands to be

Sheldon, 2-1
by Louise Stucky
Lane's women's field hockey
team hosted a game with Sheldon
High School Thursday, Oct. 29.
Because of the recent rain and
the newly planted seed, the field
was very soft. But this didn't
seem to slow down the game, although several times the ball was
lost in one of the divots.
Sheldon isn't an experienced
team, but they are known for
their aggressiveness. At half
time, with the score tied 1-1
Coach Delpha Daggett told the
Lane players that she wouldn't
settle for another tie, as Lane
has already tied the two preceeding games. Beth Smith took
Miss Daggett's words to heart,
and soon after the beginning of
the second half scored a goal
for Lane. Sheldon was unable
to score again, giving Lane a
2-1 victory. Lane's first goal was
scored by Karen Barrong.
The team voted Beth Smith
the outstanding player for the
game for scoring the winning
goal and demonstrating her high
level of skill in outplaying her
opponent. Beth is from Thurston, where she played three
years of competitive field hockey.
The hockey team would like to
thank Gar.y Washburn and his
crew for their efforts in attempting to make the field playable.

All students interested in participating in inter co 11 e g i ate

Nov. 4, at 3:00 _p.m. in the

A look at the -pros
by Bob Barley
As a youngster out of Louisville, Kentucky, Cassius Clay had
to prove himself to the boxing
world. After an impressive amateur career, which included
a long unbeaten string and an
01 y mp i c gold medal, Clay switched his vocal and physical attentions to pro boxing.
After proclaiming that he was
the greatest, Clay set out to
prove it. He slowly worked his
way through the battering ranks
of professional boxing until a
first round knockout of Sonny
Liston put Clay on top.
He defended his title 9 times,
against such worthy opponents as
Liston, Floyd Patterson, Ernie
Terrell, Henry Cooper, Brian
London, and Carl Mildenberger.
But aft e r his seventh round
knockout of Zora Folley in March

of 1967 Clay, still undefeated,
was stripped of his heavyweight
crown and banished from boxign because of draft evasion.
Clay, who prefers to be known·
as Muhammad Ali, is still appealing the evasion charge, which
if upheld would put him behind
bars for five years plus a $10,000
fine.
During Clay's three and a half
year leave of absence, top heavyweight contenders such as Patterson, Liston, Cooper and Terrell were replaced by youngsters
such as Philadelphia's Joe Frazier, Clay's ex-sparing partner
Jimmy Ellis, and Olympic sensation Goerge Foreman. Frazier, who is noted for his punishing attack, stood out among
his young counterparts as the best
heavyweight around. After defeating Ellis, Frazier was given
Clay's heavyweight crown.
But a week ago Clay returned

Titans tie in . soccer play Friday
by Bob Burnett
The Titan soccer team dueled
the U of O Canvasbac ks to a 0-0
tie here Friday, Oct.30. The Lane
team suffered a 5-2 loss at the
hands of the U of O team early
in the season.
The Lane team, much improved
over the past fe w weeks, looked
like the better team on the field
Friday. The inability of the Ti tan's to make good clears was
the biggest problem of the day.
The L ane team had more cl ears
for the afternoon, but they we r e
short ones allowing the Canvas
backs to take the offensive again.
At the beginning of the second
half it looked like the Titans
would score and break the -game

open, as they took 5 shots in
the first 15 min. Offside penalties hurt the Titans throughout
the game; they were called for
it many times, sto p pi ng their
attack and giving the ball to the
Canvasbacks.
Although the U of O team took
more shots , the defensi ve play
of Jack Johnson and goalie Abdullah Sedair i prevented ~hem
from scor ing.
With the improvement of the
Titan over the past few weeks
they could still have a wi nning
season. The Titans lia ve two
games this week. They will meet

and opened a savage cut above
Quarry's left eye. After the third
round the fight was stopped and
Clay was awarded a technical
knockout.
Now it is apparent that Cassius Clay is back - back with
his amazing footwork, quick left
jabs, and stunning rights. But
now he shares the top boxing
arena with another champion, one
who is big, strong, and also undefeated. And it is inevitable,
barring a jail appearance, that
Clay and Frazier should meet.

LCC in its third year at its
spacious new campus, will be
the site of four big athletic events Nov.7.
The Lane Community College
cross country course will be a
busy place Saturday when LCC
hosts more than 300 harriers
from high schools and community
and junior colleges throughout
the west.
For the high schools, it's the
state cross country championship
meet. The high schools get under
way at 10:00 a.m. with competition
for the "A" schools."AA"competition begins at 10:30 a.m. ,
and "AAA" competition at 11:00.
But the big event, which will
get under way at noon, will invalve not only Oregon residents,
but many out of state residents
as well.
The Western Regional Cross
Country Championship meet will
be the biggest athletic event ever
held at LCC.
Runners from seven to ten
schools in Washington, Oregon,
Idaho, and Montana will be competing for the second largest
prize in cross country racing-the Western Regional Championship.
All races will be run on Lane's
four-mile course on the campus grounds. However, if the
weather turns wet, contingency
plans have been made to run the
Region 18 harriers at Erne rald
Valley Country Club near Cottage Grove.
Also in the meet will be the

defending Regional champions,
and they don't have to travel far
to defend their title.
Last year, the LCC Titans,
headed by captain Jan McNeale,
ran away from their western opponents en route to the regional
crown at Rexburg, Idaho.
The following week in the nat ion a 1 championship m e e t at
P i tt s bu r g h, Pennsylvania, Jan
Mc Neale out-ran 282 runners in
a heavy snow and bruising cold
to d aim the individual national
championship. The Titans finished a very high "seventh" as
a team, and were only three
points out of fourth.

Page 11

This year McNeale is gone,
and coach Al Tarpenning has
only ·one member of last year's
championship team back - GayIan Littlejohn. This year, a
"green " year to coach Tarpenning, has !Jeen rebuilding year
for the Titan distance runners.
But to the team that didn't
seem to matter.
Building or not, the young Titans look very tough.
Strong competition is expected
from Mt. Hood CC, the 1970 conference champion; Southwestern
Oregon CC; and Clackamas cc.
SWOCC's Kirk Gamble and
C 1a ck am as' W a 1t Meninger
should turn in fine performances
along with Dave Boggan, the indi vidual conference ch amp ion
from Mt. Hood.
Both Ricks Junior College and
Flathead Valley Junior College
of Montana should provide enough
competition to keep the race very
much alive and interesting, from
start to finish.
The defending champion Titans
are minus McNeale, but goodperformances are expected from Dan
Van Camp (20:07), Dennis Hilliard . (20:49), Gaylan Littlejohn
(21:12), and Godwyn Smith (21:31).
Should these four come
through, and the rest of the Titan squad run to their full capabilities, this year's race could
be "greener" than ever, and
highly flooded with AI Tarpenning' s Young band of c r o s s
country runners.
After the race is completed,
awards will be presented at 12:45.
Trophies will be awarded to the
champion and runner-up t e am.
Medals will be awarded to the
first six runners, and ribbons will
be awarded to the runners who
finish from seventh to fifteenth.
Aft e r the presentation of awards, the visiting runners will
be guests of the University of
0 r e go n , w h e n t he "fighting
Ducks" clash on the gridiron at
Autzen Stadium against the nationally ranked Falcons from the
Air Force Academy.
It will truly be a big day at
LCC, and in the regional four
mile race, it undoubtedly will
be the battle of "the best in the
west."

For their top ten performances, both Van Camp and Smith
were selected to the All-Conference team.
Saturday, Lane hosts the Region 18 Cross Country Champions hip meet at Creswell Golf
Course. The met will get under

A look around· the campuses
by Bill Bauguess

RACISM SEMINAR
If you've noticed smoke over
at the U of O recently, don't
worry - there have been no
bombs, riots, or buildings burned. The smoke probably comes
from the friction created by the
ruckus over the recent Racism
Symposium.
I . don't know what all the fuss
is about, though. The Cultural
Issues Center (CIC) only overspent its entire year's budget
by about $3,500. That's kind of
like spending your entire year's
allowance, or for those less fortunate, your entire year's wages,
on breakfast. Trouble is, the CIC
can't even enjoy their expensive
breakfast because of all the publicity their mismanagement has
received.
That the news of the collosal
goof by the CIC directors and
the heads of the U of O student
government in general has overshadowed the symposium on racism seems to me the real loss
in this whole mess. As it stands
right now, the speeches that were
so dearly paid for by the U of
0 students are all but forgotten
by most people, and the CIC,
which could have been a great
service to the University, and
to the community, no longer exists.
It seems incredible to me that
money (the almighty dollar) could
have been allowed to overshadow
the cause that speakers at the
symposium were supposedly
fighting for, and that the need
for money could have been greater than the need to help the
cause ofoppressedpeoples
through the Cultural Issues Center.
As it stands, it seems that
those people who were speakers
were only interested in the material gain they received from
the symposium ($500 each) and
don't really care about the organization that could have helped
them further their cause in and around this community.
The U of O student government,
which has been trying to gain
more student control of University monies, may find in the
future that they will be controlling
less money instead of more, since
this is the first year the legislature has allowed them to have
control of the money they just
blew. And blow it they did. The
entire year's budget for speak-

ers was $11,329; the CIC o.ver- tember 30 issue of the U of 0
spent that amount by $3,521 on nespaper THE DA IL Y EMthis one seminar.
ERALD stated that "there are
15,351 students enrolled in the
OSU LARGEST SCHOOL?
university" (of Oregon). Now,

HEADLINE OF THE WEEK DEPT.
A notice in the Blue Mountain student newspaper, TH E
SPOKESMAN, was headlined
"rifle club sponsors shoot-in."
First reaction was to wonder
if they were going to shoot at
each other, or they had someone
specific in mind. Further reading, however, revealed that they
were only talking about an old
fashioned turkey shoot, or maybe it was a modern old-fashioned
turkey shoot.
