At the LCC Board of Education

nearly the same margin, indicated that cuts will have to be
made before voter approval can

Board Chairman Robert Ackerman suggested Board members consider ''not shutting the

He suggested tighter controls be

to come back and let another
student take that slot."
Most Board members agreed
that budget cuts should not come
from maintenance, either for
eqiupment and physical plants,
or from existing programs.
Robert Mention of Eugene summed up the general feeling of
most Board members. "I come
to it reluctantly," he said. "But
it is false economy to make cuts
in areas other than a reduction
in enrollment."
LCC President Eldon Schafer
cautioned the Board against expecting enrollment cuts to substantially lower the budget.
He said that costs don't drop
as might be expected when enrollment is cut back. He added
that because of tuition losses,
the cutback could become a "twoedged sword"-cutting into revenues almost as much as expenditures.
Ackerman alone urged cuts
from the college's "out-reach"
program, budgeted at close to
$157,000. The program is designed to offer more classes in
Florence, Junction City, Cottage
Grove and Oakridge.
Reacting to a statement in the

A new election probably will
not be scheduled before completion of the legislative session
in June, when the college's financial picture will be clearer.
A $53 million biennial appropriation for Oregon community
colleges, which passed the House
unanimously April 27, however,
will probably not have much effect
on the LCC budget picture
according to college officials,
even if it is approved by the
Senate.

Keep personal views personal

A "Letter to the Editor" appeared in the
April 28 issue of the EUGENE REGISTER-GUARD
criticizing Oregon Republican leaders and the
traditional two-party system in general. It was
signed "Omar Barbarossa (Student body president, Lane Community College)."
This s i g n a t u re is misleading, since Barbarossa is president-ELECT, not president, of
the Associated Students of LCC. He will not become president unless or until the Board of
Tellers r atifies the recent election vote on May 12,
and he will not assume office until May 13.
Considering Barbarossa's past experience
with state and national politics, it seemed that
surely the REGISTER-GUARD was at fault for
inserting the title after his name. Upon checking
with the GUARD, however, it was found that
Barbarossa had indeed included the title in
his letter.
Premature assumption of the presidential
title is confusing to many, and inaccurate. To
best protect the interest of all involved, student
officers and officers-elect would do well to keep
their titles straight when signing any document,
•
especially those for publication.
More important, however--the letter was
signed with an official title, while expressing
Barbarossa's personal views.
The letter begins: "Republican leaders who
control the Oreg-on House of Representatives have

evidently denied that body a chance to vote on
the federal amendment extending the full franchise to 18-21-year-olds."
The letter goes on to cite some figures from
the " latest gallup poll," then lists the virtues
of the Democratic party and blasts the Republican party for its "business and big-money
identification.''
It then states, '' Our traditional two-party
system must deal responsibly with the agenda of
national problems that 'politics as normal' has
failed to face up to: peace, military spending,
race relations, decay of the cities, exploitation
of natural resources, polluted air and water and
ho:,t of other issues."
These views are Barbarossa's personal sentiments concerning state and national politics, and,
as such, should not havP. been signed with any
official title as a representative of the student
As was stated in a TORCH editorial
body.
comm•: nt in February of last year: "Any public
stand taken by top government officials is sure to
be interpreted as representative of more than
their personal opinion if they identify themselves
as such officials. The role of official representative and private citizen should always be clearly
separated. This does not mean that ASB officers
and Senators should not make such statements,
but that they should make them as individuals
rather than as student representatives."

Teacher nominating procedures questionable
Each year LCC selects a "Master Teacher"
to represent the school at a national summer
seminar.
Instructors may be nominated for this honor
by two methods. Students must obtain 20 signatures from students who are, or have been,
in the instructor's classes. Faculty may nominate,
however, with only two signatures of faculty members -- and there is no requirement that the
instructors know anything about their nominee's
field.
This is not a new procedure. The same requirements were used in the search for last
year's Master Teacher (then called Great Teacher).
It seems inconceivable that faculty members,
who are not in contact with the instructor in a
classroom atmosphere, should be viewed as
much more competent at judging a teacher's
effectiveness than are those students who are
the recipients of that instruction. If that is not
the rationale, how do you explain the discrepancy
between the TWO faculty signatures and the

TWENTY student signatures required?
Students, who have regular contact with instructors, are at least as capable -- if not
more so -- as are faculty me m be rs of evaluating
whether instructors deserve nomination for the
Master Teacher title.
If selection of the six finalists is based on
ratings by students currently enrolled in the instructor's classes, and if final selection of the
Master Teacher is done by a committee with equal
student and faculty representation -- then why
doesn't nomination for the title require the same
number of signatures from students and faculty?
It might be argued that students have sufficient
opportunity to participate through the rating system, whereas faculty have only nomination
available. However, if students are not sufficiently
motivated by an instructor to take the initiative
to nominate him, that will probably be reflected
in the ratings.
It's inconsistencies such as these that mark
students as "second-class citizens."

Letters to th e Ed it or
OTIS talks back·
To the Editor:
(Attn.: Mr. James Flanagan)
Your article entitled "OTIS:
' well m(1aning but not especially
bright'" (TORCH, April 13) has
come to my attention, Mr. Flanagan. And I thought that perhaps
we should come to a better understanding of just what I am.
Perhaps in your initial encounter
with the name OTIS, it occurred
to you that OTIS is a less than
clever acronym for Occupational
Information Ac c es s System.
They don't really matc h up do
they, Mr. Flanagan? If you had
researched that instinctive report's hunch you would have discovered that OTIS is an acronym
for Oregon Total Information
System.
The Oregon Total Information
System, the real OTIS, is an educational data processing organi zation funded and administered
by the Lane IED (Intermediate
Education District). We provide
student, fiscal , personnel, inventory, and library services to
schools throughout Oregon. In
addition, we are developing new

applications for student particiThe Occupational Inpation.
formation Access System, or
oras, is just one of the services designed for student learning.
Vocational counseling may be
just one program in the OTIS
structure; nevertheless, I must
be rather protective of its capabilities and value. The computer
industry's favorite idiom is
"Garbage In, Garbage Out." It
means quite simply that if you
type in garb. . . er, incorrect
statements, the computer will
return "gibberish." The computer does its thing extremely
well and very rapidly, but it is
totally dependent on receiving
corr ect input from its human
operator.
Your description of the vocational counseling service was
ve r y accurate. I believe you
would agree that it would be difficult to have your abi li ti es
matched to likely j ob descriptions any faste r than by using
the teleprocessing terminal.
Your criticism that the service
does not find the job seeker a job
is correct. OIAS is an INFOR-

MA TION service not a placement
bureau. It was never meant to
replace the personnel directors
of the world. Rather, it provides
a starting point for the student
wishing information about occupations. Human initiative takes
over at this point.
Why don't you visit me sometime, Mr. Flanagan, and see the
other projects underway here. I
think you would find it a very
enjoyable and informative trip.

TORCH, May 5

Committee needs 'honesty'

by Richard Stamp

LC C's Bill of Rights committee, at its second m2eting.
April 20, discussed possibilities
for a preamble to an institutional
Bill of Rights, then reviewed the
first three sections of the Student Bill of Rights.
The LCC Board of Education
tabled the student documrmt early
last month in favor of one which
would encompass all segments
of the campus community. College president Eldon Schafer was
appointed at that time to form a
committee to write such a document.
The committee began work two
weeks ago with discussions of
membership. Students stressed that they should be in majority since they were the ones
who initiated the idea of a Bill
of Rights at LCC. The committee
presently consists of three students, and one member each from
classified_, fa cu 1t y an':! administration . Schafer serves as
committee chairman.
Students argue that Schafer
told the Board students would
make up the majority of the
committee. They feel they do
not have that majority.
Schafer, however, contends
that because there are three representatives from the student
body and only one from each
of the other camJus segments,
students are already in the majority.
Still, during .its weekly sessions the committee seems to
function satisfactorily. In spite
of this conflict discussions have
taken place with little open disagree men t or argum,?nt, and
there appears to be an attitude
of cooperation. Yet, underneath
this seemingly smooth-working
operation; there is an air of
uneasiness, mistrust and resentment.
Students feel frustrated, perhaps insulted, because the Board
refused to accept, or even completely rev i e w , their Bill of
Rights. ASLCC Publicity Director Mark Parrish noted at the

committee's first meeting, that the "students' opposition" outstudents are in a "no-thoice side committee meetings since

LCC students now have seven

Previously, the time limit was

Students warned
of theft problem

A problem exists on the first
floor of LCC's Center Building.
Women students are leaving
their purses unattended, and having money taken from
them.
Books are being ''lifted" from
unoccupied tables and being sold
to the Bookstore, according to
security chief Mark Rocchio.
Rocchio said one man has been
arrested and is being prosecuted
for the theft of a book. He is
being charged with petty larceny and there is a chance he
may be dropped from school.
The problem is not small, said
Rocchio. Students should be aware of its existence, and take
proper precautions with their
property.

It's merry-go-round time.

_,,__ __

Although most instructors approve of the pass-no pass system, somE~ are skeptical of its
advantages for their particular
course. Before an application is
made, the instructor should be
consulted.
Applications for the pass-no
pass option may be obtained at
the Admissions Office, second
floor of the Center Building.

Any day of the week a student may visit the snack bar
near the pool tables and see
countless numbers of students
playing cards.
"They really must love to
play cards," he may think. Upon
closer observation the reason for
the seemingly popular table sport
becomes more apparent. There is
m one y changing hands - not
nickles and dimes, but dollars.
Dollars that pay rent, buy books
and purchase food, cross the
table with such ease that anyone
watching would think it meant
nothing to the person pushing it
into the pot.
The money does mean something to the players who lose it.
It may mean they either will

COMMENT

Tryouts for LCAA 'Fiddler'
slated May 10 - 14 at LCC
Auditions for parts in FIDDLER ON THE ROOF, the Lane
County Audito'rium Association's
1971 summer musical, will be
held at LCC May 10-14.
The announcement of F IDDLER' s selection was made May
1 by Edward Ragozzino, LCC
Performing Arts Department
chairman and producer-director
of the past six summer shows for
the Association.
Ragozzino, in revealing the title officially, explained that the
LCAA is the recipient of a'' special" re 1ease from the publishers. He attributed this to the
fact that he has been attempting
for five years to secure the property, which will not be made
available to any other amateur
production company until this
fa 11 . Terms of the agreement
included a contract stipulation
that the title not be announced
until May I, to prevent the Eugene production from infringing
upon the National Road Company
that is still touring.
By the time the Ragozzinod ire ct e d LCAA version of FIDDLER opens in Eugene on July
30, it w i 11 have become the
longest running musical in the
history of Am.erican·theatre. On
July 23, the New York company
will have played 2,847 performances, surpassing the previous

Committee heads
meet with Schafer
The chairmen of all college
committees will meet with LCC
President Eldon Schafer Wednesday, May 5, from 3:00 to
5:00 p.m. in the staff lounge
(Center 221).
The two-hour block will be
used so chairmen who ha v e
classes at either hour can attend during the other hour of
session.
Purpose of the m~•eting is to
discuss the effectiveness of the
committees th is year, and whether current committees should
be continued next year or reorganized in some way.
Karen Lansdowne, president of
the LCC staff association and responsible for appointing s ta ff
members to the various committees, said she felt this year's
committees have generally functioned more effectively than before.
Most LCC committees are
composed of both students and
staff. The only student chairman

•• situation. They
have not. Carter also said if the
students did not stop the gambling, it would be up to the security force to do it. "No action
will be taken, he said, until he
talks to the student government.
If the Sen ate cannot deal effectively with the situation the administration will have to handle
it.
Carter expressed hope that the
problem could be handled with
no arrests, but said there might
be if the problem persists.
ASLCC President Warren Coverdell said he was -aware that
gambling was taking place in
the snack-bar area, but did not
know anything about Student
Senate action against it. He said
it was brought up at one of the
meetings but nothing was done
other than telling the players
they should do their wagering
someplace else. Coverdell was
not aware of Carter's belief that
the Senate was supposed to deal

with the problem.
The g a m b 1in g situation has
been a "Comedy of Errors" so
far. Everyone has been either
trying to cover it up or "pass
the back" to another group.
With this story comes a warning to those readers who are
participating in this "illegal"
sport. It is time to move from
the public eye if you plan to
gamble. It may be harder to find
a game, but a true sportsman
will find some action no matter what hardships he may encounter.

Weikel teaches .Adult Ed. chess class
by La Verna Bauguess
Jerry Weikel is one LCC student who thinks about the game
of chess in a big way - so big,
in fact, that he made a 3-foot
chess board out of felt.

Now to most people that may
sound a little strange, ~ut it
isn't really as the 3-foot chess
board is used by Weikel to demonstrate various chess techniques
to an evening class he now teaches.

JERRY WEIKEL DEMONSTRATES CHESS MOVE to an LCC student . during a session of the class he teaches through the Adult
Education program. Weikel is the president of the LCC Knights
and Castles Chess Club.
(Photo by Sue Bird)

Weikel and chess, the world's
oldest game of pure mental skill,
have become almost synonymous
at LCC this year. Weikel is a
full-time s t u de n t majoring in
education and is currently the
p re s id e n t of the Knights and
Castles Chess Club. In February, Weikel captured second
place individual player title at
the Northwest Regional Chess
Tournament in Moscow, Idaho,
and one month later at LCC won
a game of chess from Grand
Master Svetozar Gligoric of Yugoslavia who is rated as one of
the top ten chess players in the
world.
After the famous win from the
Grand Master, members of the
chess club encouraged Weikel to
look into the possibility of teaching a class in chess through the
Adult Education Department.
Weikel conferred with Raymond Proctor, one of the coordinators of the Adult Education
program, and found his suggestion enthusiastically received and
his class scheduled for Spring
Term.
In the class Weikel uses the
large chess board for demonstration while students use regulation
size boards to work out problems.
The class is composed of both advanced and beginning chessplayers, so the course must be highly
i nd ividualized to meet the students' needs.

Lt. Calley's trial and his conviction released a lot of people's
pent up emotions. Many feel that
he is the victim of a senseless
war--a scapegoat. They feel this
way because we are not fighting
for our freedom, but the freedom
of a people halfway around the
world. We became involved in the
war for an ideal. And whether
we were right or wrong in doing
this, only time and history will
tell. Nevertheless, the trial of
Lt. Calley has brought us face
to face with war's atrocities.
All wars have had their moments of atrocity. And since the
days of the Trojan wars, there
have been rules of warfare. Military leaders in the past found

written code of conduct, and it
has been enforced throughout our
military history. After the Civil
War, Captain Henry Wirz was
brought to trial for the Andersonville atrocities. In 1902, Birg.
General Jacob Smith was brought
to trial for issuing orders (comparable to those attributed to
Captain Medina) to kill the inhabitants of Ba 1an gig, Phillippine Islands. Had the Nuremberg trials never occured, the
events at My Lai would hav.
raised the same issues th
ow
confront us. And herei ies the
hypocrisy of war....,.,,.
If wars can be fought according
to rules of conduct, then there
can be no reason for war in
the first place. Differences of
ideology, economics, and ethnics
can be adjusted, if we can rid
man of the fears, prejudice, and
iJ?:norance that spark war.
War is a waste of brainpower,
man power, and natural resources. And the greatest of all
waste is man's spiritual values.
The nature of a war that a selfgoverning people become involved in reflects the character of
their ideology, and their intelligence.
A free people, however, may
sometimes be forced into a war
in order to maintain the way of
life that's dear to them, but
they must never let their ideals
of justice and fair play become
tarnished.

A look around ·tne campuses

Probation on a 3.7 GPA?
Is it possible for a student
to complete 30 hours with a 3. 7
GPA and end up on the academic
probation list ?
At LCC it is.
Marion Crafts, an auto technology student from Springfield,
can testify to that.
It seems the computer which
processes the grade lists doesn't
compute grade point totals of
more than two digits. Consequently, instead of giving Crafts
credit for the 112 grade points
he earned, he was credited with
only 12.
So instead of being included
on the President's list, he ended up on the academic probation
list.
This only goes to prove what
e v e r y self-respecting college
student has told his parents for
year - too many classes can
be bad for you.

***
The "Perfect dog"
They've finally done it. . .
they've bred the ''perfect dog."
After ten years of breeding and
eight generations of development,
the University of Oregon Medical
Sc h o o 1 Re s e a r c h Foundation
claims they have arrived at the
"perfect dog."
The dog, to be used in research programs, has the desired
characteristics of genetic uniformity, large litters, early maturity, stress resistance, 35-45
pound size, gentleness, trainability, short hair, light skin, curly
tail, quietness, cage tolerance,
stamina, a deep chest and large
blood vessels.
The new breed is about 40%
Labrador Retriever, 40% Basenji, 10% Greyhound and l0%Samoyed.
I wouldn't plan on running right
out to buy one, though. Considering there are only 50 of them and
it took ten years to breed them,
they might be a bit of our your
price range.

They know the game well, often making up new rules as they
go along, indulging in other people's senses as well as sensitivities. Those who don't meet
the standards of sensitivity,
openness, honesty - use your own
word - often are disciplined into becoming (or Becoming) sensitive. Brutal words and angry
cries create pain-ridden minds.
They adopt the jargon, making
it part of themselves, using the
present as it becomes the past.
Another malady of sensitivity
training is the word ''training."

Gay -_ Alliance members ta·lk_with LCC·health class

by Lorena Warner

Three representatives from
the Eugene Gay People's Alliance introduced only as Larry,
Linda and Nancy - were at LCC
last Thursday, April 29, to speak
to Bob Creed's health class on
the subject of homosexuality.
After a brief explanation of
the Gay People's Alliance, the
floor was opened to questions
from the class.
Linda presented the Gay People's Alliance as primarily a social service for its members,
in that it allows homosexuals the
opportunity to meet other homosexuals under pleasant social
conditions. The Alliance also
serves an informative function,
helping homosexuals relate to
"straight" society and themselves. On a broader scale, the
Gay People's Alliance is attempting to t e a r ct ow n the "fag"
stereotypes and educate society
to a more realistic image of
the homosexual.
Several of the questions asked by class members related
to the cause of homosexuality.
All three of the representatives

All three speakers said they
thought that for a homosexual to
be well adjusted in society, he
must accept himself and not be
afraid to admit his feelings. Linda said the homosexual "in hiding" will suffer a great deal of
stress and pain in trying to adjust to the heterosexual society.
She feels it's better to accept
yourself than try and force a
heterosexual relationship an ct

with its complications.
Students were interested in
the Gay People's Alliance's encounters with the police. Larry
said that the Eugene police department does not harass the
Gay People's Alliance. He did
say , however, that they are
checked out periodically by the
FBI, whose interest is in the Alliance's political status. Linda

Iron Butterfly concert
set for Eugene Speedway
by Sandy Neely
Iron Butterfly, a nationally
known acid-rock group, will appear at the Eugene Speedway on
Wednesday, May 19.
The concert, which will last
from 8:00 p.m. to 12:00 midnight,
is sponsored by the Associated
Students of LCC. According to
ASLCC President Warren Coverdell, all profits from the event
will go into a scholarship fund
designed to help students anticipating financial difficulty due to
the $10 increase in next year's
tuition.
Coverdell stated he hopes $700
to $1500 will be grossed from the
event to augment the fund already
established from the Kenny Rodgers and the First Edition concert. By the end of the summer,
Coverdell said , he hopes that
about $6000 will have been earned by various concerts.
Also appearing with the Iron
Butterfly will be John Manning,
and Black Oak Arkansas, who
Coverd•~ll said were also becoming very popular. Tickets for
the concert will be $3.00 for LCC
students, and $3.50 for general
admission.
On Sunday, May 30, Canned
Heat will appear in the I ,CC gym,

along with Am1~rican Frog. An
LCC student, Larry Anderson,
manages the American Frog and
two other groups, and is helping
to organize the concert. The event
will be held from 8:00 p.m. until
12:00 midnight, and ticket prices
will be $2.50 for LCC students,
and $3.50 for general admission.
Location and time of a concert
by Buddy Miles, previously scheduled for July 11, are undecided
at this tim1~. The gym floor is
going to be refinished early in
June, before basketball season. I
Athletic events will continue to
be held in the gym after the floor
refinishing, but the administration does not want concerts to be
held there because of the possible
floor damage. Cove rd ell stated
that this policy ''infringes on student's traditional rights to use
campus facilities."
Another pro~lem in holding
concerts in the LCC gym is
that fire regulations allow only
3000 people in the gym, and over
4500 people have been in attendance at other concerts. Concert
promoters would like to sponsor concerts throughout the sum•mer, but there aren't enough
places for the sponsors to hold
them.

such acceptance can only be possible when people are willing to
discuss the problem openly, as
occurred in this session.

more than just strategic air support, but agreed that all ground
troops should be removed at
once.
The war, according to most
committee mem'Jers, is destroying two countries-the United
States by draining its economy
of 40 billion dollars a year, and
Vietnam by prolonging a war that
is physically destroying its land.
The possibility of a violent
revolution in America was
brought up by Reiman, who felt
that eventually the nation would
say ''no more" and take steps
to correct the country's plight.

Kirk disagreed only with the
portion of Reiman's comment
dealing with a violent revolution.
He said the country is in a revolution now--that the citizenry
is growing tired of the war and
beginning to revolt at the polls
and by other peaceful means.
When asked about the drug
problem overseas, the committee agreed that such a problem
exists. They also said the military is helping to create that
problem by cracking down on
marijuana excessively, causing
the mrm to go to other, harder
durgs. According to Canaga,
there was no drug problem in
Vietnam before 1966 or '67. It
was then that the military began
its crack-down.

Skirvin pitches no-hit game

by Jim McKirdy

Coach Fred Sackett's Titans
came alive Saturday, May I, at
Howe Field, be ating Central Oregon Community College (COCC)
twice in a double header. Both
games were spectacular pitching performances.
In the night-cap, Titan pitcher
Larry Skirvin pitched a no-hit,
no-run ball game. He struck out
five and walked only one in a
short, five-inning game. The
game was shortened when the Titans jumped to a 10-0 lead.

Monday, May 3, the Titans met
the University of Oregon Duck
J. V. 's at Howe Field in a double
header. The results were asplitLCC lost the first game to the
Ducklings 3-2; the Titans won the
night-cap 4-1.

Last Thursday, April 29, the
LCC Titans olayed Oregon College of Education. The Titans
started out in fine shape, but
as the day wore on, the tide
turned in favor of the OCE team.
OCE won 8-5.
On Tuesday, May 4, the Titans
hit the road for a return game
with COCC at Bend. Going into
Tuesday's game, the leaders in
the RBI categorie are Rod Laub
with nine and Tom Joll with 7.

The first game was error-filled for the Titans, but they came
on strong in the second inning to
score the only points of the game
in their favor.
LCC was in control all the way
through the second game. The
third Titan to the plate was Rod
Laub, who batted the first two
Titans home and landed safely on
second base. Going into Monday' s
game, Rod Laub had the team's
highest batting average -.350.
