1fiane (!lommunit~ Olnllege Oregon's largest Apr 1st community college PRC 4000 East 30th Avenue, Eugene, Oregon 97405 meets to cut budget The inevitable "tightening of the bell" of the LCC budget, especially in the face of expected budget defeats by the county voters, began last night ~t a meeting of the Priorities Review Committee (PRC) in the Board Room of the Administration Building. President Eldon Shaefer, who organized the committee, expects PRC to look at all phases of ex.penditf,lres and services of the coliege and to come up with ~commendations which will allow the campus to function both efficiently and economically. The first and most immediate topic for the committee was the QUestion of whether or not there should be a summer school for the 1972 session. Discussion centered around the value that summer school holds in the life of a student. While it was pointed out that students usually work during the summer months, and therfore are less like to attend school, that fact was countered by the esseatial service summer school offers in allowing basic required courses to be dispend courses to be dispensed with early in a high school graduates' life. A decision was reached to take an overall look at all summer term departments and examine its benefit to the student and its cost to the college. The committee agreed to encourage higher summer enrollment, and thereby increase the Full Time Equivalent (FTE) students. This would increase the revenue the college receives in funds. The 1971 FTE enrollment for summer session was 333. The committee recommended that this be increased to 400. The members of the committee took notice of the fact that little if any promotional activities have gone on in pushing the summer school offerings of the college. They felt that the best promotion so far has been pamphlets sitting in high school counselors' offices. With better promotion of the LCC summer term program, the committee felt that the desired student enrollment increase student enrollment increase could be realized. Consensus of the committee was to take a look at all summer school departments aud analyze their effectiveness, their extent of service to students, and whether they break even or not. If the summer program is able to break even, overall, then the program is justified. Toe committee went into "executive session" because of the sensitive nature of the discussion at this point. The committee felt that premature knowledge of such discussion would hamper the task of the committee in its evaluation. After a discussion of this sensitive area the committee came out of executive session and mad~ some recommendations of its ,Preliminary findings. 7:30 PM Main Gym weekly newspape r Vol. 7 No. 19 The Cage March 28. 1_972 Board approves tuition increase Wednesday, March 22, the LCC Board of Education approved a 12.5 per cent tuition increase. The annual increase will be $30 for in-district students, and $60 , for out-of-district. Adult Education tuition was $12 per term for each 10 week course and has now been raised to $14. The Board decided to let out- 1 of-state and foreign students continue to pay the current rates :µid not be subjected to an increase. The tuition increases are expected to add $165,213 to the college funds. Voiced opposition came from • Student Body President Omar • Barbarossa, who attended the • meeting in an effort to g~t The Board ·to agree on letting students have the right to bargain on their behalf concerning any increases in tuition.

That platform calls for expansion of equal opportunity in a positive way, especially for Barbarrassa explained that the students contribute 23 per cent •of the money to operate the school and have little power in making their needs known. ••Sixty_.per cent of the student body at LCC makes $200 or less per month.

LCC's helicop ter arrives Student Senate The ASL CC Student Senate met Thursday, March 9, in a long, confusing session. After filling two empty . Senate seats, and allocating $1,000 for the Emergency Dental Aid Program_,Steve Leppanen challenged the quorum. After some parliamentary confusion on the part of AsLCC President Omar Barbarossa, it was decided that there was in fact, no quorum and the meeting was recessed until March 14. There is no quorum when there is less then 51 per cent of the Senate: representation present at a Student Senate meeting. The meeting reconvened on March 14, Steve Leppanen withdrew his challenge of the quorum after the Senate had discussed the importance of accomplishment in lieu of following the rules strictly. Jack Hart moved to declare the Senate meeting an emergency meeting, and the motion was carried. (The March 14 Senate meeting will have to be ratified at the next Student Senate meeting in which there is a quorum.) Hart then made a motion to reconsider the Emergency Dental Aid Program. John Loeber explained to the Senate that the Dental Program is open to all LCC students on a need, and first-come first-served basis. Loeber also mentioned that the program needed immediate funds if it is to continue. The Student Senate then voted t o give the $1000 to Financial Aids to support the Dental Program. The Senate seats that had been filled by Lorraine Francis as Senator-at-Large, and Jim Lovell as Social Science Senator at the March 9 Senate meeting were not subjected to a re-vote on March 14. The senate went on to allot $1,789 to have "The Cage," a revolutionary t he at r e group, come to LCC April 1. The Senate also approved having a 3 day jazz festival on campus May 12, 13, and 14. This would be put on by a group of people in the community, including some LCC students. A Hiller OH23-C Helicopter was delivered to the LCC AirFrames hanger on Friday, March 10, initiating a new program in helicopter mechanics and maintenance. The three-man whirlybird was acquired through the Department of Health, Education, and Welfare which handled the extensive paperwork and located the helicopter. According t o Me l Gaskill, head of the Mechanics Department, "The helicopter is for the use of students in the Airframes and Aviation Maintenance Technician program." He said the copter would be used to train students in "assembly and rigging, engine runnup and check out, rotor-blade installation, inspection and tracking, inspection training, servicing, and all around maintenance training." Even though the helicoper is 16 years old Gaskill said it is in very good running order and could be flown. :When asked why it could not be used to train helicopter pilots, Gaskill replied, "It would cost $40 to $50 an hour to keep it up to specifications . . . many parts would have to be replaced periodically in order to safely and legally fly it," he said. Unlike planes, helicopters must have rotors and other parts replaced more frequently. The engine, however, will be running quite often for mechanics' training. 2· ED:IICJL, The •innocent b:tstander Only twenty more primaries to gol "Newscene" ignores tuition increase "Newscene" shows signs of being an asset to LCC. The community and students can be filled-in to what is making news right here at LCC on the home TV by tuning-in to "Newscene," which is broadcast twice weekly. On Saturday, March 18, the ~Newscene' broadcast was the usual, somewhat nostalgic show; yet a good image. It was interesting to see that nothing was mentioned of Student Body President Omar Barbarosa's news release. which was released two days prior to the show. (See story Page One.) Barbarossa stated that he was disturbed with the 12 per cent increase in tuition and would do all in his power to stop it. This small oversight on the part of "Newscene" to report the news may be due to the fact that ••Newscene'' is produced by an instructor, and not by students. There is an irony in the news that the Board last week voted to retain $62,050 in curriculum development funds to be used to encourage "innovative teaching methods that increaseproductivity." Perhaps if students are given more share in making decisions as to what innovative teaching methods are, as well as the validity of some cases of faculty in student projects, such glaring oversights will not occur. Gas station platform embraced On Thursday, March 9, the Student Senate voted on and approved a new senator. His platform was that he would form a gas station on the LCC grounds. The would-be senator went on to explain his intricate plan of setting up this gas station. In the end he admitted that after checking the ground plans at LCC a gas station could in fact not be opened. This was his platform and as he already stated, it had failed. His opponent, another -man, ran on the platform of dealing with the pollution problems at LCC. He mentioned investigating the amount of paper that LCC wastes, and the possibilities of recycling· this paper. He talked of dealing with the traffic problems and pollution. As it turned out the Senate apprcived favorably the candidate with the gas station plan; regardless of whether it could be accomplished or not. This image seems to support the old myth that there is a gas station, or will be, on every corner. Closed to students, not to staff. During finals week last term students who wished to use the facilities in the Physical Education Department were forced to bring their own gear, towels, gym suits, and equipment. The cage in the PE Department where these items are issued was to be closed. It was closed to students, but not to the staff. Faculty members were al-)le to check out clothes and equipment through locked doors. There should be a reordering of priorities on the point. The student is being completely overlooked in this matter. It should be emphasized that the Student Senate allotted $17,000 to the PE Department for the 1971-72 school year. This was not $17,000 from a faculty organization. Lane Community College Editor lltH Doug Cudahey Associate Editor Liz Campbell Bill Dwyer News Editor Mik-el Kelly Feature Editor John Thompson Sports Editor Ass't Production Manager Tom Jett Photo Editor Jim Otos Barry Hood Advertising M_anager Copy Editor Business Manager Reporter Lindsay took over the frontrunner spot oy defeating the previous front-runner, Senator Vance Hartke, in the New York primary last week. Lindsay garnered 16.1 per cent of the total vote to Hartke's 15.9. Experts credited Lindsay's smashing triumph there to the appeal of his campaign slogan: "Think of the job Lindsay's done as Mayor and let's send him to Washington!" The Campaign he re in Arkansas, which was covered by three reporters and the editor o f Psychology Today, offered several dramatic moments. Perhaps the most dramatic was when Senator Muskie, who used to be the front-runner before New Hampshire last winter, consumed eighteen cheese blintzes in 32 seconds at the only kaffeeklatsch held in his honor. It was assumed that Muskie had thus sewn up the Arkansas Jewish vote. But after consuming the 18th he immediately collapsed to the floor, holding his stomach in pain. With tears in his eyes, he explained to his outraged hostess: "Honest. it wasn'tthe blintzes. It wasn't the blintzes. It was the fact I hadn't eaten for three days." Most experts felt Hubert Humphrey, who was briefly the frontrunner after the Florida primary! would win here due to the brilliance of his radical new campaign strategy: Thanks to acute laryngitis, he wasn't able to say a word. Unfortunately, the voters said what they've been saying a 11 spring: "Humphrey and Nixon? Again?'' *** The returns were announced this evening over the three networks during a station break, which gave weary viewers an opportunity to go make a sandwich. They showed that each of the candidates had received 217 votes. The returns were followed by a special hour-long program paid for by "The Citizens for Teddy Kennedy Doing Whatever He Wants to Do." In an emotional speech, Senator Kennedy paid glowing tribute to "the glorious American system of Presidential primaries which so adequately tests the courage and resources of the aspirants." In closing, he said he wouldn't run for President - "unless," • he added, •'none of the other candidates have the strength or funds to get to the Convention." The experts immediately began speculating on who was still fit enough to be n1s runnmg mate. (C. Chronicle Pub.

Earl Barrios, manager for the Chicano Union, said that most of the money made at the January Chicano Dinner will be used to move Ms. Margarita Puente, a widow and mother of nine children} into Eug·ene from Canby. Barrios explained that about three months ago the sewer line in Ms. Puente's front yard broke. Since then about one-third of the yard has been covered by sewer water, emitting an unbearable odor. The landlord was informed of the condition many times by Ms. Puente, but his only attempt to alleviate the problem was using Drano in the kitchen sink. Ms. Puente has not been able to use the front door because of the flooded yard. Barrios said that her family, as a result of the flooding can not use their kitchen sink or bath tub, because they won't drain that same day.

The most fundamental threat to the survival of our planet is overpopulation. Each child in the US, during its lifetime, will consume more than 56 million gallons of water, use 37 thousand gallons of gasoline, consume 5 1/2 tons of meat, 9 tons of milk products, and 5 1/2 tons of wheat. While comprising only 6 per tt,mt of the world population, Americans consume half of the world's resources.
