LINT loses agent

A former member of the Lane Interagency Narcotics Team
.
(LIN T) has been reported missing.
John Moore, Lane County district attorney, stated that Steve
Cain failed to appear at a trial in Astoria where he was slated to
testify against a man involved in narcotics violations.
Moore said he had no reason to believe foul play was involved
in Cain's disappearance, but Clatsop County District Attorney,
Frank Coumont, tried to link Cain's disappearance with recent
publcity given to LINT in the Augur newspaper and to a firebombing
incident involving Cain's automobile.
An Augur spokesman dismissed Coumont's theory because the
firebombing of the car occured well before his photograph was
published in the Augur, the Torch and the Emerald.
• Deputy DA Moore said that Cain had been deputized as a
Eugene police officer to work in an undercover capacity but that his
services ended a week ago. Moore said Cain's "usefulness as an
undercover agent was at an end." The termination of Cain's services in Lane County coincided with the adverse publcity he received
when he, and two other agents, attempted to arrest Augur photographer
Kate Thompson at the Lane County Courthouse.
Cain had worked in Clatsop County as an undercover narcotics
agent where he was responsible for the arrest of 23 people on
alleged narcotics violations. Clatsop DA Coumont said that while
Cain worked in the area, "he looked like a bum." In September he
was referred for narcotics detector work to Lane County where he had
been employed by LINT until a week ago.
Moore said that "Cain had moved out of the area. We're not
advised of his present location, but that doesn't mean that he isn't
going to be available later." Moore said that the missing agent
"could go to work for other jurisdiction~ because there's a fairly
substantial demand for people who do that kind of work."

group
investigating Cain and other LINT agents. The Augur contends that
the LINT agents go after marijuana users but ignore hard drug
users and hard drug pushers. The Augur also suspects that Cain,
and possibly other LINT agents, actually push hard drugs at the
same time that the agents are making arrests for marijuana violations. The Augur is now gathering testimony from people who say
that Cain actually pushed hard drugs to them.
Clatsop DA Coumont says that he has called in both state and
federal authorities to aid in locating agent Cain's whereabouts.

Gravel has become active on
issues concerning the draft, the
war in Indochina, and atomic
energy dependence since his 1968
election.
His frequent speaking tours
throughout the U.S. are, according to him, his most powerful
ally in achieving recognition in
the Senate. He opposses both the
Vietnam War and the draft, labeling them as immoral. Also,

Cops and Robbers

In theory the line between cops and robbers is clearly drawn.
The cops are the good guys and the robbe rs wind up on ''Dragnet.''
In practice, however, the white hats and the black hats occasionally
get switched around: Witness the large number ofHollywood Grade B
flicks with rogue cops.
How well do the members of the Lane Interagency Narcotics
Team (LINT) manage to hang on to their white hats? LINT personnel
seem to fall into two categories - those with formal law enforcement training who are usually in a supervisory position, and those
recruited as undercover agents (whose law enforcement experience
is usually nil) who are then armed and expected to exhibit the same
judgment that other officers acquire through formal training.
The community should ask on what criteria these agents are
selected.
The first requirement is obviously to pass as a member of the
drug culture -- which means one has to look and act the part. One
doesn't learn the life style convincingly without close contact with
the culture. To keep his cover an agent must participate in the
culture. In effect, then, one becomes a criminal to bust criminals.
The blurring of the line between good guys and bad guys comes
about because of the infectious nature of crime. It's easy to remain
untainted if one isn't placed in a position to be tempted but being in
daily contact with vice certainly requires courageous resistance.
The Augur contends that LINT agents are hunting marijuana
users while ignoring hard drugs, and actually pushing hard drugs
themselves. A check of the police blotter in the Register-Guard
any night will show a disproportionately high number of marijuana
versus hard drug arrests. Reds and smack show up in Eugene; ask
Whitebird Clinic. Several possibilities may exist: some LINT agents
may be ignoring hard drugs, or not expert in tracking down hard
drug pushers, or are themselves tainted.

Who needs more rules?

The LCC Boarj of Education, in their February meeting:,
will consider the adoption of a Board policy to prohibit any form
of gambling at Lane.
The adoption of this policy will not be in the best interest
of LCC for several reasons. The Board will be outlawing an activity
("friendly social games") that is now legal in Oregon. If the Board
is interested in prohibiting games run for profit, or prohibiting
non-students being involved in games there are several existing
laws on the books that can be used.
People running games for profit are subject to criminal
prosecution, a matter for civil police; and Campus Security can
more actively enforce the existing policies against trespassing and
loitering. A policy that incorpates these measanis is preferrable
to total prohibition,

Banned for the du.ration

by Arthur Hoppe
"Show and Tell Time" has
been temporarily banned at the
Millard Fi 1mo re Elementary
School. The edict was issued after
the third grade teacher, Miss
Philomena Phigbee, was hospitalized with "nervous exhaustion."
School officials said the ban
would last for the duration of
the Vietnam war.
Miss Phigbee collapsed last
week after four of her pupils
brought newspaper clippings to
class dealing with the massive
bombing raid on North Vietnam.
The scene, as nearly as it
can be reconstructed from Miss
Phigbee's somewhat incoherent
account, opened with Miss Phigbee asking who has '' something
to share with the other boys and
girls."

down our bombers in order to

There are three types: head lice

Metzger aids WHO
Rodney Metzger, assistant
professor in the LCC Sociology
Department, has made a contribution to the specialized field
of Medical Sociology. Most recently his· knowledge and work
has helped in establishing a training program for nurses in the
South American Country of Guyana.

Gymnastics Team, He fell during a workout and has since been
confined to a wheelchair.
The 28 year old instructor is
a graduate of the University of
Montana and has been at LCC
since 1968. He first taught part
time, and for the past two years
has been a full time instructor.

Medical Sociology is a relatively new area of study dealing with cultural ideas about
sickness and death and how personal attitudes affect recovery
from illness or accident.
At the request of Patricia
Green, consultant for the World
Health Organization (WHO), a
UN organization, Metzger went
to work writing a curriculum to
be used in a three year training program designed to offer
public health nurses a better
and more complete understanding
of the ideas and attitudes of
patients recovering from illness
or accident. This program is
now in practice in Guyana.
Metzgers personal interest and
involvement in this specialized
field began when he suffered
from an accident ten years ago,
while training for the Olympic

Metzger

Metzger has also completed
extensive study into the causes
and incidence of suicide among
specific cultures here and abroad, and is now writing a book
on the subject.

Council forms Market

And instead of taking a loss,
Thomasberger states, the supermarkets have increased their
prices in violation of the law
while the wages of most consumers have stayed the same,
creating buying deficiencies.
Consume r's rights are considered in the Council's fight
against rising grocery costs. The
Council has five major goals to
help the consumer out of the inflationary jam: (1) offering information on safety in the kind
of food he buys; (2) informing
him about misleading advertising; (3) providing the necessary
information required for in-

A- concerned group of citizens
The Council of The Poor, is
planning to form such a store,
called Grower's Market, scheduled to open in January, 1972.
Grower's Market plans on
beating inflation by setting prices on grocery items as close
to wholesale costs as possible.
All items will be priced at reductions for normal day shopping at a solid fixed price.
The store policy of Grower's
Market, besides lowering priA nickel increase on most

"to operate in the interest of items offered by the LCC Food

satisfactory quality with fair prices; (5) making consumer interests first priority in store policy.
Tomasberger feels that since
most small farmers have to take
whatever they can get on the
open market, they aren't being
treated fairly in relation to the
larger farms. He feels that most
small farmers will be able to
give good quality produce with
reductions in consumer costs.
Thomasberger stresses the
need for help, money, energy,
ideas, skills and a good break
from the zoning commission.

menu have remained unchanged.
The four factors involved in
the decision are; the wage-price
freeze, thefts, salary increases,
and increased food costs. An
average 20 per cent increase
over the last three years before the wage-price freeze,
coupled with frozen prices, caused a deficit.
Last term also saw the loss
of 1,200 sets of silverware along
with an average of three dozen

"A person has to be in a mood

to compose music. You can't just
sit down and write it on a commercial basis. You have to creatively and intuitively listen to it,

So comments Tom Duncan, vocalist, guitarist, composer and
LCC student tutor who recently
wrote an anti-war song entitled

' Attica," reflecting the soldier's
fate.
Duncan, stated that he plays
music by ear and likes country
and western, rock, jass and classical. In 1964 he played for dances in Chicago with a group called The Wayfarer.

by John Thompson
We printed a story about Bill
Cram being September's Athlete
of the Month, but we didn't print
any stories for October or November. The October Athlete was
Randy Griffith, and for November
we selected Dale Hammitt.
Cram was an all-around athlete
at Madras High School, and since
enrolling at Lane, Cram has been
a top finisher for Coach Al Tarpenning's Cross Country Team.
Cram plans to attend Oregon
State University when he com-

TORCH, Oct. 12).
Griffith is from Triangle Lake,·
an "A" school with an enrollment of about 70 students. Griffith was an all-league football
and basketball star there, setting
the state "A" school record in
the mjle with a time of 4:24, and
had a time of 9:44 in the two
mile event. Griffith's best times
at LCC have been 21:10 in the

As George Pasero (sports editor, Oregon Journal) said: "His
(Frei's) albatross was domination by Oregon State," He wasn't
able to beat "the Pumpkin" Dee
Andros. Only once was Frei's
team beaten decisively by OSU,
but closeness does not count with
the alumni. Therefore pressure
from the alumni caused Jerry
Frei to resign, in the final analysis. The continual frustration of
losing to OSU caused a Duck
player to say after the OSU game
this year that ''God is a Beaver."
The problem is that the alumni

Poor Jerry Frei! What a way
to go! It proves what we have
suspected for sometime - that the
alumni really run the athletic
programs at most universities.
Norv Ritchey said as much
recently; "They (the alumni) told
me it was either Jerry Frei who
goes or you (Ritchey) who goes.
I told them it would be me.''
That quote came from Blaine
Newham's column in the Register
Guard.
Well, they couldn't get rid of
Frei directly. The next step then
was to attack Frei's assistants
through the press. Two assistants
resigned. It is reported that Frei
was given a directive by Ritchey
to dump some of his assistants.
This uproar became too much

LCC Titan hoopsters win three

Coach Irv Roth's Titan Basketball team had an excellent
week. They came back from a
dismal beginning, (a one win,
two loss league record) to win
three league games, and bring
their league record to four wins
and two losses. With such an
outstanding week the Titans took
some of the sting out of their
upset loss to Chemeketa Community College Saturday, Jan.15.
Greg Taylor was once again the
big gun in these three games totaling 97 points for an average
of just over 32 points per game.
LCC defeated Umpqua 81 to 68
last Tuesday, Jan. 18 behind
Taylor's 27 points; Steve Woodruff scored 20 points with a fine
back up effort. Taylor was 11
for 24, and Woodruff was 8 for 11
from the floor. The Titans shot
an overwhelming 53 per cent from
the floor, and they outrebounded
the visitors by a 44 to 34 count,
with Terry Manthey leading the
caroom parade with 13. LCC
jumped off to a 47 to 33 halftime advantage as Umpqua could
manage only a 39 per cent shooting average. Coach Roth said

points), and Billy Ingram (23
points) played very well. "Rusty
definitely had his best game of
the year," said Coach Harter.
"He has been playing hard all
year but the shots finally started
to fall for Rusty against New
Mexico State. Billy continues to
show good improvement and is
getting much more consistent,"
added Harter. However, Harter
was not pleased overall, and he
won't be happy until they break
their six game losing streak.
Harter, and assistant Ray
Edelman were out beating the
recruiting trail last week. The
Pac-8 has approved freshmen to
play varsity basketball and football. Therefore, it is very important that Harter and Edelman
try to get the very best high school
seniors in order to help the program much sooner, as the young
men recruited this spring will be
able to play on next year's varsity.

Job woes hit Lane,
•
Solution •1s airy
by Byard Pidgeon
Students always seem to be
looking for jobs; part-time, fulltime, occasional work--the need
is there, for a large percentage
of the student body, to work. LCC
students are no exception to students, a job is the critical weight
in the balance, determining
whether school is possible or not.
For many LCC students, the
LCC Placement Office is the answer to the questions, "What kind
of jobs are available?", "Where
can I find a buyer for my skills?"
and "Where will I work after I
leave LCC?"
For many other students, the
Placement Office has no answers.
These are the "minority" students, (not necessarily racial
minorities), the students with few
skills, transportation problems
etc., and the many students who
don't know about the Placement
Office.
Buck Bailey, director of placement at LCC, estimates that about
80 per cent of LCC graduates
find their job contacts through
their departments. The graduates
who use the Placement Office,
says Bailey, are "mostly classified as 'hard to place'. And
that doesn't mean Blacks or Chicanos especially."
The hardest people to place,
Bailey asserts, are those in
social or physical minorities-the "hip" or "long-hair" group,
and people who are fat.
"This is an uptight, conservative, hard-hat, middle-of-ther o ad community," Bailey said
and, while the employers don't
say "don't send any fat people,"
they often do say "you're not
going to send me any longhairs,
are you?"
Hailey states that, while he
doesn't share the employer's
prejudices, he is limited in his
ability to alter them. "I don't
believe in jeopordizing the job
contact," he said. He feels that
the availability of a job or jobs
is of more importance to students, rather than arguing with
the employer, and risk losing him
as a potential student employer.
The Placement Office has been
the target of increasing criticism
in the past few weeks, both from
student officials and from students. Omar Barbarossa, student
body president, says that "there
is a lack of communication from
the Placement Office to the students." He believes, from the
number of students who approach
him inquiring about jobs, and the
large percentage of these who
don't know about the Placement
Office, that Bailey is not doing
all he should and could for the
students.
''The Placement Office needs
to be visualized," Barbarossa
said and suggested that Bailey
should be more imaginative in
informing students about the services available. Some of Barbarossa's suggestions were that
the Placement Office should use
posters, t!le TORCH and larger
and •,tr.>re visible bulletin boards
to reach students.
Student Publicity Director Mel
Wood be 1ie ve s that the LCC
Placement Office is "just doing a
crappy job." Among his complaints are that the Placement
Office doesn't have any company
recruiters coming to the campus,
that the LCC curriculum, especially in the voe-tech field,
"hasn' t been sold to the nation's
employers." and that it has been

left to the students and the departments to obtain lists of potential
employers and to contact them.
He cited the Flight Technology
Department's employer lists as
an example of department placement action.
According to Bailey, Mel Wood
is right in stating that recruiters
are not coming to LCC. "Three
years ago," Bailey said, "we had·
rec r u it e rs with appointments
scheduled through 1972." In addition, all firms recruiting through
the U of O have been invited to the
LCC campus and LCC students
have been sent to the UO campus
to meet with recruiters. These
programs, Bailey stated, were
largely unsuccessful.

Bailey counters Wood's assertion that LCC hasn't been" sold''

which show that fewer than six

The US Army has decided to
toughen up its basic training
program. Experiments in more

Brig. Gen. Ira Hunt: "we've decided that the relatively spartan environment is the best for
recruits."

Recent statistics show that
rural crime is rising at almost
as fast a pace as urban crime
rates. Incidents of crime in rural
areas rose from 4.2 incidoants

farmers leave their land each

Federal PROSECUTION of 150
persons, including 16 Detroit policemen on gambling charges is
threatened by improper use of
wire taps. The charges may be
dropped because Attorney General Mitchell did not authorize
their use. An earlier ruling by
a court in New Orleans freed
six members of a narcotics gang
because a Mitchell aide has signed the wiretap authorization.
Federal law requires the Attorney General to sign such orders.
