Student Senate meets
in legal session again
First time smce Februar y •
In the first legal Student Senate session since February,
and after a spontaneou s declaration by ASLCC President Omar
Barbarossa , the Student Senate spent two hours discussing
and voting on six items, which included the ratification of the
last three Senate meetings.

Pieces display ed

All day Thursday and Friday, the students enrolled
in Lane Community College pottery classes displayed and sold their works in the Center Building
concourse. Response was reportedly very fa-

vorable, and numerous purchases were made.
Each piece was marked with tape, indicating
the price and the student who made it. Pottery
students conducted and managed the sale.

The Priorities Review Committee, a group appointed by President Schafer to make reccommendations concerning possible
budget cuts in the operating of the college, held its third meeting
in executive session last night. The meeting concerned itself with
a review of all operations among the President's staff.
Central to the examination that the committee is engaged in
are the areas of Community Relations, Research and Development
and the offic'e of Special Assistant to the President on Equal 0p..
portunity.
Last Thursday, the comrnittee interviewed Marston Morgan
who heads the office of Institutional Research. Morgan presented an
overview and description of his · office and responsibilities within
the institution. Considerable time was spent in discussing the relationship of this office to the college business office, area of physical
plant, the area of Community Relations, and overall management
functions of this institution.
Thursday's meeting resulted in the committee's decision to
devote last night's meeting to considering the material and discussions that have now been covered by the committee in the areas of
the President's Office, College Community Relations, College
Community Research, plus any additional follow-up recommendations
concerning Summer School. The committee, according f.io the agenda,
was to pool all their recommendations together regarding the
areas under discussion.
Last night's meeting, in executive session, moved into the areas
under · consideration. After formulating and examining all the possible budget ·cuts in personnel and services in this area. the committee formulated a series of recommendations to be presented to
the President. These recommendations w!ll not be made public
until President Schafer returns tomorrow, and has a chance to
review these recommendations.
n1e minutes of last night's meeting will be approved on Thursday, at which time they will also be made public.
Members of the committee were appointed by President Schafer to examine the operation of the college "across the board."
Members include: Robert Allen of Industrial Tecnology, Jan Branderstrom from Counseling, Jack Carter, Dean of Students, Larry
Davis, Aviation Maintenance; Jim Evans, Business, Mary Forestieri, Mass Communications, Dale Gramley of Social Science, Jack
Dreitz af Business, Richard Newell from Physical Education, and
Hank Douda from the Business Office, an "ex officio" member
of the committee.
A question has existed as to how seriously President Schafer
intended to adhere to the committee's recommendations. The committee sent a memo to Schafer requesting that he look upon their advisements with the utmost seriousness. A hint as to how seriously he intends to take such advice was revealed in his reply. In
that reply Schafer accepted fully one of the original committee
recommendations concerning the moratorium on the hiring of staff.

Plans election strategy

Barbarossa, in addressing the Senate floor, said, "We can't
get the right people in the right place at the right time; and some
people just don't care, and we don't know where we're at. It's sort
of a bad commentary to say at the end of the year--that we don't
know where we're at."
The Student Senate then went on to ratify the three March Senate meetings that were not legal due to lack of attendance by the
elected student representatives.
In otfier action the Senate:
Voted to allot $500 for graduation ceremony for the 1200
graduating LCC students.
Voted to reserve the Village Inn in Springfield for a Senate
Workshop at a cost of $250.
Voted to make Room 234 available for the Transcendtal
Meditation Club.
Discussed the Student Election that is tentatively set for May
2. Jay Bolton said that the new petitions are ready in the Senate
area for those wishing t run for student office next year.
Discussed the Voter's Handbook, and whether the Student
Government aspirants should be given wide coverage in the handbook, or whether they should rely on their own initiative. Any-decision was put off until the next Senate meeting.

Bud get com mit tee mee ts
by Dan Kern

The LCC Budget Election Committee met Monda y afternoon
April 3 to prepare strategy for
the budget election to be held
at the same time as the May
23 primary election. The college is requesting a property tax
levy to increase the property tax
assessment from the present rate
of $1.55 per $1,000 true cash
value to $1.65 for the '72/'73
'"fiscal year. 'Ibis represents a
six per cent increase over the
present tax rate and adds 18
per cent to the LCC budget.
The 12-member committee agreed to pursue three courses
of action to encourage passage of
the proposed tax levy:
Contact the newspapers and
other media about the budget
to explain how the money received by the college is being
spent and how the proposed increase will be used;
Prepare a fact sheet for distribution to the community explaining the budget and LCC programs for persons who intend
to speak to the community about
the LCC budget;
Invite people from the community to comment at the weekly
budget committee meetings
Budget Committee members
discussed criticisms expressed
by the community which many
members felt contributed to past
budget election failures. According to LCC's Business Manager,
Bill Watkins, most of fhe people
who criticize the budget do not
understand how the money for the
college is being used. "They
see that the college receives
over a million dollars each year

to operate but they think that
the money can be used in any
manner the college sees fit. They
don't realize that most of the
money is earmarked for a specific purpose and cannot be transferred, for example , from the
building fund to pay staff salaries," Watkins explained. Watkins
added that although the request
for added revenue increases the
present budget by approximately
18 per cent (total revenue from
matching federal dollars), the
college will still be operating
at about 20 per cent less than
last year, while student enrollment has increased 18 per cent.
According to Richard Eymann,
chairman of the committee, some
people in the community have
criticized the college for not
providing more vocational programs.
Watkins thep explained that it
costs the college 55 per cent of
the tuition revenue to operate
vocational programs while the
students enrolled in vocational
programs provide only 40 per
cent o f t he re v e nu e. College
transfer students provide 60 per
cent of the revenue for their
programs while the cost comprises 45 per cent. "We cannot
afford to cut back on operating
costs fQr either college transfer
programs or vocational training
without creating an imbalance of
funds to operate the programs
adequately. If we are going to
expand any programs we will
simply need more money,''. said
Watkins.
"Since the federal share (3
to 1 matching funds) of operating
the college is based partly on

the amount of local, tuition, and
state revenue generated, a cut in
the support from any of the non
federal re v en u e sources will
mean a more drastic cut in federal support, thus lowering the
quality of education by increasing
the student-teacher ratio and
necessitating a cutback in services essential to accomodate the
increasing enrollment at LCC,"
concluded Watkins.

Dial Retrieval offers
"World Press" tapes
through LRC weekly

"World Press," a 45 minute
weekly telecast from San Francisco public broadcasting station KQED, will now be avanable on video tape to LCC students through the Dial Retrieval
system in the Learning Resource
Center.
" 'World Press' offers an opportunity to absorb different
viewpoints on w o r l d -wide events," said Pete Peterson, LCC
journalism instructor who received permission from the Corporation for Public Broadcasting
to tape the show. "It's amazing
to see the subtle and overt differences between American press coverage and foreign
press reports of, say, the Angela Davis trial. The press of
Great Britain, France, Russia,
Chile, South Africa, and China
view the event from different
perspectives than our own. It's
a way of gaining a complete view
of the week's international news
and of evaluating our own press,''
said Peterson.

The innocent b:tstander

Hanoi's Unfair To Organize War

lack of harmony not healthy
The lack of harmony that exists between the student body and the
administration at Lane is not a healthy situation for LCC with budget
elections just around the corner.
David Brinkley, NBC newscaster, brought out a similar example
in his Journal of April 4. He stated that citizens in Wisconsin were
questioning the presidential hopefuls in the recent primary by
questioning the principles of federal government• .
Voters were not sucked-in with lengthy speeches of what candidates hope to do if elected. People were more concerned with the
issue of being represented and having a government that will work for
the citizens and taxpayers.
Brinkley went on to say that it is no wonder people are now
questioning institutions governing their lives more than ever before.
The federal government is hassling every group in this country:
hassling the young by ignoring their cries for peace and cessation of
a continuing war that nobody wants; hassling the middle-aged by
perpetrating rising taxes and cost of living; and hassling the elderly
with inadequate pensions and inappropriate health care.
People today feel they are not being treated fairly - and they
are right.
The recent tuition increase of 12.5 per cent has sparked student
protests and opposition.
Students at LCC have no say in this matter. Yet stucdent monies
make up 23 per cent of the operating budget.
Local taxpayers contribute 25 per cent of the operating budget and
have a definite voice in the matter as they proved so well last year.
In order for LCC to project the image of being a tru~ community
school, the administration must move away from running this school
like a factory. There must be more student input as to what priorities
need attention.
If the student body is no"t made to feel comfortable at LCC it is
certain they will project this unrest to the people in the community.
LCC Board Chairman Catherine Lauris stated on January 12 that,
"The role of the administrator and the policy maker is changing, and
we must find new ways to participate in truly democratic and genuinely
equal deliberations."
The question is whether or not the LCC Board will put pressure
on Dr. Schafer to negotiate with the student body in a just and equal
manner.

of South Yietnam and teach them
a lesson, we're going to go invade somebody else.

by Arthur Hoppe
North Vietnam has launched
its long-awaited offensive into
South Vietnam. We reacted swiftly. Our top officials in Washington issued a protest. They said
North Vietnam was being unfair.
Quite rightly. Why doesn't
North Vietnam fight fair and send
these troops ·to invade Laos and
Cambodia instead? What are they
trying to do, Vietnamize the war?
Moreover, as our State Department pointed out, the offensive is
a clear violation of the 1968 Understanding. The Understanding,
as we understand it, provides that
we won't resume bombing North
Vietnam if they don't attack major cities in South Vietnam. And
that's exactly what they're doing.
It shows how you simply can't
trust the North Vietnamese.
Unfortunately, when it comes
to teaching them a lesson, our
options are limited. It sounds as
though the easiest way would be
to resume bombing these treacherous North Vietnamese. But
we can't do that.
We can't do that because we
long ago resumed bombing these
treacherous North Vietnamese.
But don't worry. We have a
plan. In order to cripple the current North Vietnamese invasion

* * *The plan was conceived by one
of · the top, up-to-date military
minds in the Pentagon, that of
General Homer T. Pettibone, U.S.
Army Flying Corps, who is known
as the "brains behind our Vietnam strategy."
"As you recall," General Pettibone told a press briefing, ''we
initially invaded Cambodia and
Laos to cripple any North Vietnamese offensive, such as the
current one. And the President,
himself, s a id these invasions
were tremendous successes.
'' Therefore, to cripple the current offensive again," said the
General triumphantly, "all we
need do is go invade another
country!"
While the reporters sat stunned
by the brilliance of this strategy,
General Pettibone tapped on an
imposing map with his swagger
stick.
"The initial problem we faced," he said, "was finding anotheir country we hadn't already .
invaded. That ruled out Laos
and Cambodia. We thought of
Thailand, but we already have
troops there to defend itfrom invasion. And we felt the concept
of our troops fighting our troops

might prove unpopular at home.
"But at last, we found a country we hadn't invaded. It's the
very key to Southeast Asia. As
you will see from its position
the map. . .It's right here
somewhere. Hmmm ... well, anyway,. gentlemen, we will invade
the Kingdom of Kong!
''We have cabled King Ko'ng,
himself, offering him the most
modern of invasions with thou -·
sands and thousands of bombers,
tanks, guns and the very latest
in crop defoliants. Expense is no
object, we told him, in making
Kong as peaceful as Cambodia
and Laos are today.
"Oh, wait till the North Vietnamese in South Vietnam get
wind of this," said the General
rubbing his hands. "Believe me:
they'll turn tail and run."
OIJ.

***

A reporter asked when the invasion of Kong would be launched.
"Just as soon as we can decipher the cryptic note King Kong
sent in reply to our request,"
said General Pettibone, pulling
a cablegram from his pocket.
"Do any of you gentlemen have •
the foggiest what this means:

To the Editor:
- When I left Viet Nam almost
two years ago, I never dreamed
that I would be subjected to a
military form of discipline again.
I was more than surprised to
find it right here on the baseball team of Lane Community_
Colleg.e.
I was further surprised to

discover that apparently athletic
ability doesn't count as much as.
the ability to conform to someone else's standards of personal
appearance. In short, I was told
that I had three days "grace
period" to decide whether or not
to shave off m,y mustache.
Well, I didn't shave the mustache. Consequently I have given
up the enjoyment of. baseball
that Spring weather could have
provided.

Comment
by Jim Otos

The .ASLCC Student Senate is
supposed to represent the students at Lane. They probably represent the students best in tb,e
area of apathy. And if the Student Body at LCC is apathetic,
then the Student Senate ispathetically apathetic.
There has been less that 52
per cent of the student representatives at any one of the Student Senate meetings since February, and it is interesting to
note that if the roll call were
to be taken at the end of the Student Senate meetings instead of
at the beginning there would have
been only about 40 per cent of the
Student Senate members present,
rather than 50 per cent.
Of course, there has to be at
least 51 per cent of the student representatives present to
make a Senate meeting legal, so
the Student Senate operated illegally at every Student Senate
meeting in March.
Finally at the Senate meting on
Wednesday they got it all together, and somehow rounded up
26 members, just enough to constitute a legal meeting. The first
thing the student representatives
did on Wednesday was to ratify
the three previous Senate meetings, with an addition saying that
if there was anything at any of

those meetings that anyone didn't
. like, anyone could have itbrought
before the Senate again.
And it is lucky that was the
first thing that the Student Senate
did, because s ho rt I y thereafter
student representatives began to
filter out, and by the end of the
Senate meeting there were only .
19 student representatives left,
seven below the required number.
There are some student representatives that are concerned
about the absenteeism at the LCC
Senate meetings, (about 19) and
ASLCC President Omar Barbarossa was so frustrated that he
refused to chair the Wednesday
meeting. When asked, Barbarossa said. "I'm just sick and
tired of all this bullshit!" Evidently over 50 per cent of the
student representatives are sick
and tired of it, too.
The ASLCC will be accepting
petitions for the ASLCC executive
cabinet positions, the Sophmore
Departmental Sen at or i a 1 positions, and 5 .Senator at Large
positions. Petitions are available
at the Student Senate Office on
the second floor of the Center
Building. Petitions must be
turned in by '5:00 p.m. April 24.

'Godfather'

• by Elizabeth Campbell

By now everyone has heard
about "The Godfather." With star
Marlon Brando plastered on the
cover of every major magazine
(all the same week, yet) and with
the deep-throated shorts on TV
promising both power and intelligence in a film, who could have
missed its coming? "Godfather"

Marlon Brando as he appears
in "The Godfather."

has replaced "Summer of 42"
as The-Movie-To-See.
Because of all the publicity,
critical hullabaloo and controversy (over the exclusion of the
word 'Mafia' from the film devoted to the story of Mafia dealings), I approached the film with
some skepticsm: it can't be all
that good. •
Now, I take it back.
"The Godfather'' is "th at
good."
From the opening scene, the
viewer is totally involved in the
film. For three hours that seem
• like years (and yet minutes), the
audience is annointed in the ri-

•

IS

'that good'

tuals and blood baths, and the
now-funky beat and fashions of
New York gangster life in the
1940's--we are submerged in the
very essence of life and death in
another era and psyche.
So much has been said about
"Godfather" it's hard to add
much of an original viewpoint.
The production is superb in nearly every aspect: the intimate
and sweeping photography (and
never distractive, as has been so
much the vogue lately); the softly
nostalgic, unobtrusive music,
and, of course, the beautiful acting and all-important plot. All
the elements of a great film
are here, and director Francis
Ford Coppola has blended them
with skill and insight.
Now, following the first rash
of praise, some near-inevitable
complaints are being bandied
about. Some critics are worried
•about the film's ''glorification:of
crime," and others fret over •
organized crime being presented
as just another family enterprise.
Hoth concepts are valid worries, but only when we consider
them apart from the film as a
whole. Within that whole, these
worries are secondary to Coppola's powerful c'reation.
Throughout the film, Coppola
uses irony as a device to display the Corleone family doings
and their gangster existence. Violence is interwoven through
scenes of marriage, baptism and
respectability. Deaths come suddenly and bloodily. Are we therefore safe to assume that Coppola
is showing us that bloodshed and
chaos and misery are acceptable
as long as we are performing
the proper rituals and duties at
home? I think not. The violence
is never allowed to create any

thing but more pain or violence.
The blood may be spilled cooly,
with faces blown off between bites
of veal cutlets, but Coppola never
allows his film to embrace his
character's methods, he merely
shows them as they are.
Besides, to worry about the effeet of such murder and mayhem
is to ignore the greatest achievemen t of the film (and Mario
Puzo's book): the telling of a
great story. The characters are
living out their lives as they had
to-or saw fit. We can apply
their questions-and solutions- to
our lives each in our individual
way, but we cannot ask that they
be changed.
The Corleone family's story is
one of violence and paradox, one
we can study on many different
levels.
Which brings us to the second
complaint emerging: the view of
the Corleone family as just another "business in the American
tradition," trying to get ahead
and stay ahead.
Again, we are caught up in
Coppola's subtle irony, with his
mixing of domesticity and violence. Of course the Corleone
"family" is just another business trying to succeed. Their decisions concern life and death
itself, and the members of the
family act accordingly, to their
best interests. What business
doesn't? Br and o himself embraced this view of the film,
seeing it as an allegory of the
American corporation, of the poHey-makers who decide the lifeand-death issues for everyone
else, who negotiate the state of
this world. Each viewer has to either accept or reject this allegory

Americans seem to have a compulsion for throwing things
away. While there is nothing inherently sinful about that, we could
stand to use some common sense . A large part of our grocery bill
is spent on packaging. Due to the very nature of supermarkets, we
are obligated to carry home our share of sacks, boxes, cartons,
bottles, and plastic bags. Agreatdealofthe crud in our garbage cans
needn't be there. Some suggestions:
Avoid plastic. No matter how you look at it, it's a dead end. When
burned, it gives off toxtc fumes, and when thrown away to rot, it
doesn't. ·
Pay more attention to the product than its package. A gawdy container is no guarantee of quality.
Save your glass jars (e.g., mayonnaise, pickles, peanut butter,
baby food, and coffee). They can be used for canning, storage, or
if you don't want them given to someone who does.
Grow your own vegetables and fruits. If you don't have the space
for a garden, use your flower bed or even planter boxes on the window
sill or patio. Most vegetables require little space and can produce
enough for countless meals.
Don't throw away leftovers. They can be used in casseroles and
lunches, or even added to pet foods.
Cook things yourself, as much as possible. Stay away from TV
dinners, packaged cookies, and other prepared foods; they don't
taste as good as your own, and they cause the useless accumulation
of cartons and wrappers.
•
If possible, start a compost. This can create unforeseen complications in apartment buildings, but under more feasible conditions
(outdoors, plenty of room, etc.), food scraps and other organic material can be returned to the soil in the form of excellent fertilizer,

4-H offers summer iobs
About 70 college students, both
men and women, are needed to
serve as counselors during the
57th annual 4-H Summer School
at Oregon State University June
11-17, reports Cal Monroe, OSU
. assistant state 4-H leader.
Counselors must have completed one year of college. Experience in 4-H and counseling
is desirable, but not necessary,
Monroe said. The job pays $60
for the week.
The counselors will work with ,
groups of about 30 4-H members
who will be housed in OSU resi-

dence halls at Summer School.
At the same time, Monroe an' nounced th at applications are
' being accepted for the 4-H student
' staff to work at the 1972 Oregon State Fair .. About 16 students
will be hired to work from the
week of August 20 through Labor Day to assist with exhibits
and various 4-H events.
Students interested in one or
both programs may obtain application blanks from the State 4-H
Office, 105 Extension Hall, OSU.
Deadline for the Summer School
positions is April 15.

Food gripes aired

by Jon Haterius
OSPIRG Reporter
LCC chapter of Oregon Student
Public Interest Research Group
(OSPiRG) received some student
complaints· last term about food
price increases in the cafeteria
area.
An OSPIRG represenative. Jon

Haterius, talked with LCC Business Manager Bill Watkins, and
Food Services Manager Merlin
A.mes last term to find reasons
for five-cent, across the-board
food increases for sandwiches
and other frequently bought foods.
QSPIRG also advised the Internal
Revenue Service (IRS) of the food
price increases to discover if
increases were permissible in
light of Phase II economic guidelines.
IRS has set down guidelines for
price increases by stating that
(1) prices can be increased only
if business profit margins (known
as money carry-over in the cafeteria and bookstore) are less
than prior to the wage-price
freeze, and (2) only if wholesale prices to the Food Services
at LCC increase, and this increase can be passed on to the
consumer.
This last year the carry-over
(a form of profit) in the cafeteria area was less than in pre-

ri--~= ···=

costs of operation of the cafeteria. By IRS definitions, the
price increases are permissible
under federal wage-price (Phase
II) economic guidelines.
Ames acknowledges, "We have
not made as much carry-over
profit as last year thus far, because students have bought less
food because of the increased
prices, and yet our fixed costs
in salaries. etc. remain the
same."
Ames continued: "In the last
five years in which LCC has
had a cafeteria," we have only
made about $2,000 carry-over
profit to improve food services,
and I feel that this figure is
innadequate."
Some 40 per cent of students
at LCC have incomes of $150
a month and less, and about
40 per cent of the student body
are classified by federal poverty
guidelines as living at the poverty
level. And as a possible consequence, more students are either bringing their lunches, or
going without lunch at LCC because of "tight economic conditions c u r r e n t 1y e x s i s t i n g
throughout most of the country."

Mid -Ea st clas ses set

•Professor Paul Malm· of the
Social Science Department is organizing a trip to the Middle
East this summer for all inter. ested students. The trip, planned
for a minimum of 22 days, is
intended to give students a firsthand look at the Middle East
situation.
Students may have the opportunity of taking any course or
groups of courses through the
Hebrew University in Jerusalem.
All courses will all be instructed

by local experts, and credits
are transferable to the University of Oregon. Among possible
classes are Conte mp o r a r y
Middle East, Government of Israel, Biblical Studies, and Archaeol,ogy (beginning and advanced).
"Four years ago I went to
Israel, after the Six Day War,
to study Middle East problems,"
said Malm. "I spent nearly a
month in special classes in international relations, and interviewing diplomatic eJCP.erts in

various fields and the man on
the street. It was such a refreshing and interesting experience that I want students to have
it too.''

Gradua tion plans unveile d

Plans for this year's graduation exercises were proposed to
Jack Carter, Dean of Students, following a meeting of the graduation
committee on Wednesday. The dean will discuss the proposal with
Student Body President Omar Barbarossa and the Board of Directors for a graduation dinner rather than the traditional cap and
gown ceremony.
Results of a poll conducted among LCC students showed that
most are in favor of a dinner over a formal ceremony. Of the 579
students polled, 348 said they would not participate in a formal
ceremony if one were held.
Graduation Committee Chairman Irene Parent said she believed few students went for the formalities associated with the
traditional graduation rite. '' The committee felt they should keep
up with the times," she said. The committee consists of faculty
members Ms. Parent, Pete Peterson, and Ed Ragazzino, and three
students, Don Shore, Sharon Danford and Pat Tiller.
The buffet dinner is scheduled for 4:30 p.m. on Sunday, June 4
in the LCC cafeteria. It will be free to graduating students, but
others must buy tickets in advance at $2.50 per person.

Paul Malm

Malm stated yesterday that he
has yet to come to an agreement
with the airlines, but the total
expense for each student is fairly definite. "I can say that it
will be somewhere around a thousand dollars," he said.
Malm will be paying his own
way out of donations from local
businessmen. "I'm not going to
be teaching,'' he said. "But I'll
be interviewing people to compare 1968 with the present."
For more information, contact
Paul Malm· at the LCC Social
Science department or call him
at 747-7164 or 757-4501.

OSPI RG seeks beer boyc ott

The Oregon Student Public Interest Research Group (OSPIRG)
is asking Oregonians to stop
patronizing the beer brewers who
are seeking to prevent Oregon's
new bottle and can deposit bill
from going into effect Oct. I, 1972.
The boycott, OSPIRG announced today, would include the
brewers of Schlitz, Budweiser,
Miller, Hamms, Burgemeister,
Michelob, Colt 45 and several
other brands.
Five brewers, along with four
can companies, three contract
canners and three soft drink companies, are suing the state of
Oregon and challenging the constitutionality of HB 1036, passed
in June 1971, which places a minimum five-cent deposit on all
beverage containers.
''Brewers have a right toaday
in court," Stephen R. McGarthy,
OSPIRG director, said, "but Oregon consumers also have a right
to know . which brewers want to
stop the new deposit law.
'' And Oregonians have a right
to express their disagreement
in the marketplace," McCarthy
said.

The OSPIRG board of directors, comprised of students from
member campuses, voted to
sponsor a boycott of the following
brewing companies: AnheuserBusch, Inc., brewers of Budweiser, Michelob and Busch;
Theo. Hamm Brewing Co., brewers of Hamms; Burgemeister,
Waldeck, Buckhorn and RightTime; Miller Brewing Co., Brewers of Miller; National Brewing
Co. brewers of Colt 45 and
Mait Duck, and Jos. Schlitz
Brewing Co., brewers of Schlitz.
The Blitz-Weinhard Brewing
Co. of Portland, Rainier Brewing Co. and Carling Brewing
Co. of Seattle; Olympia Brewing
Co. of Tumwater and Lucky
breweries, of Vancouver, Wash.,
are NOT among the brewers
seeking to have the law declared
unconstitutional and OSPIRG is
not asking that their products be
boycotted.
Also named as plaintiffs in the
action are the American Can
Co., Continental Can Co., National Can Corp., Reynolds .n.luminum
Co., Glazer Beverages, Noel

Canning Corp., Pacific Food Products, Pacific Coca-Cola Bottling
Co., Shasta Beverages Division
of Consolidated Foods Corp., and
the Oregon Soft Drink Association.
The complaint, filed in late
January in Circuit Court in
Marion County, alleges that the
system of one-way, no deposit,
non-reusable containers is responsible for substantial growth
in the industry in recent years.
More than 50 per cent of packaged beer and carbonated soft.
drinks sold in Oregon are in oneway containers and to interrupt
that system would result in

"severe and substantial injury"
to the industry, the complaint
charged.
"Brewers caneffectivelyco mpete in the Oregon and national
packaged beer markets only by
packaging their beer products in
one-way, no deposit, non-reusable containers,'' the complaint
said.
The complaint also noted that
86 per cent of Anheuser-Busch's,
74 per cent of Ham ms', 100
per cent of Miller's, 100 per cent
of National's and 98 per cent of
Schlitz's packaged beer sales in
Oregon are in one-way, no return bottles.

Voter drive termed success
The Voter registration drive,
held April 3 and 4 on the LCC
campus, was termed a success
by the League of Women Voters~
Members of the League of
Women Voters manned tables in
the cafeteria of the Center Building throughout both days of the
registration d r i v e . The registrars estimated that they had
registered approximately 100 voters each day. Ms. Ester Loy,
a registrar for the League of
Women Voters, said this was a
good turn out compared to other
registration drives held at the
U of O and other parts of Lane
County.
Rob Williams, chairman for the
reglstration drive gave much
credit for the success to the
posters supplied by the Oregon
Students Vote Committee, a group
operating out of Portland. The
posters, black and yVhite, depictes
trouble scenes in America and
urgies young people to register
and vote for change. Williams
also credited the placement of
the registration tables as being
in a good location to meet the
maximum number of students.
To be eligible to vote in the
May 23 Oregon primary aperson
must register by April 22. Under
Oregon Law anyone who will be
18 before May 23 and has lived
in the area for 30 days is eli- .
gible to register.
Those people still wishing to
register to vote may do so in

the Student Senate office or the
Administration Bui 1ding. Off
campus voter registration may
be accomplished at all branch
offices of the U.S. National Bank,
at fire stations, or at the County
Courthouse.

Had a chance to talk with Oregon's Clyde Crawford at the Oregon-Cal game Feb. 18. Clyde, as
most of you know, re-injured his
leg prior to the opening game
this year, and therefore has been
red-shirted.

Crawford, a six foot! on~ inch
guard from Dorsey High m Los
Angeles, would have been a real
asset to this years Duck team,
friends. He undoubtedly would
have started this year. Clyde is
arealteamleader,andhasanuncanny ability to drive with the
ball.
On -the Frosh ' team of 196970 Clyde scored 463 points for
a 19.3 average per game, and
led the team in shooting with
.518.
Clyde told me that he's working
out on his own; that his leg is
healing well, and he hopes to come
back as a better player next
season.
He has two more years of
eligibility. Academically, Clyde

will be a senior this fall, and
he says he will probably go
to graduate school the last year
he's playing basketball. •

Ghost writers on the go...

Berkeley-- "Why do I do it?
Because it makes me feel
smart," says AI Berg. "I like
it when people come around telling me how smart I am."
Al Berg (not his real name)
is a ghost writer. He's one of
about 25 people in the San Francisco area who will, for a price1
research and write almost any
assignment--from a student's
term paper to an entire doctoral
thesis.
"Sure, I can write on any subject, except maybe biologi~al
statistics," says Berg, leanmg
back in the wicker chair and tugging at .his thick black moustace.
"A guy asked me to do a Ph.D.
paper for him on "Nationalism
and Technology in Tanganyika."
He'd worked on it a year and a
half and gotten nowhere. I whipped' it out in four days--it came
to seventy pages."
.
"I wrote the story of a. guy'5y
life once, for his Family Living
class. I took it from an oldcasebook study I'd seen as a social
worker where the kid was diagnosed' as a potential assasin."
Berg's "office" is a ramThe Lane Community Col•
lege baseball team found weat he r conditions disagreeable

students at Cal, some of whom
are completely dependent on
Berg's services. "There's one
guy who can't write even so much
as a three-page paper. He only
takes a few units each quarter,
so he can afford me,'' Berg says.

also ghost-writes novels.
Berg's operation is a small
one-man business, but ghost writing can be big business. Four
Boston area term-paper outfits,
International Term-papers Incorporated, Universal Term-papers, Termpapers Unlimited, and
Quality Bullshit, are reported to
have turned out 4,000 papers in
the first six months of the 19701971 school year. Most of their
customers were from Harvard
and Yale.
Recently, Termpapers Unlimited and Quality Bullshit opened
new outlets in the San Francisco
Bay area. ·TPU's western affiliate
Termpaper Liberation, offers
"thousands of papers available."
Other theme brokers who operate
out of such unlikely' places as
Indio, California and Rockford,
Illinois, will be glad to send
you their "free list of titles."
The ghost writing racket works
both ways: term-paper businesses are in the market for good
papers written by
students.
Termpaper, Inc. of Stanford advertises: "We buy our essays,
• themes, theses, term papers, dissertations" - at a rate of $2. 75
per five pages. The company
resells the papers at $2.00 a

Al charged about $3 a page, a
rate which is average for "custom'' ghost writing. At least four
term-paper services are listed in
the classified section of the Daily
Californian, the Berkeley campus' student newspaper.
Berg, in his early thirties,
makes enough by ghost writing to
support a wife and two children.
Does he feel his work is unethical? "The whole educational'
process is unethical. If it wasn't.:
students wouldn't have to come to
me in the first place. They'd
write their own papers, if they
thought they'd be learning something. But the competition at
school often is too intense."

THE FORUM

On ~a sense of harmo ny.

(Editor's note: The campus Forum serves as an
opportunity for members of the LCC community
to express their opinions. The following was prepared by Terry Conrad, LCC Art Instructor.)-

Because people working together can -accomplish more than they can working in isolation,
institutions develop to maintain and promote cultural unity and social co-operation by accepting
particular responsibilities. Schools, as institutions, accept the responsibility of promoting
human knowledge and the presentation of its
lessons by the most understandable means to
any and all interested individuals, schools strive
to realize their responsibility in a democratic
society.
By translating the interests and talents of
individuals into communicable forms and accomplished skills, education promotes the cultural
unity of people. The school environment, by
concentrating people of similar interests, increases efficiency in learning the means of
purposeful action to relieve a sense of uneasiness and develop proficiency and understanding.
The economy and quality of the learning environment in teaching these means depends on the
accurate definition of human interests, the extent
of instructional resources, and the degree of
individualization in instruction. This implies offering a curriculm that contains class offerings
that are sensitive to the talents and interests
of staff and students, equipping these classes
with the necessary resource materials, and optimizing the learning situation by tailoring the
number and size of classes to the instructor,
students and subject matter.

By availing interested individuals the opportunity for responsibility and participation in the
organization and administration of the school
community , education promotes and develops
social co-operation among people. Fundamental
to democratic belief is the universal benefit
of peaceful coexistance and the division of labor.
Vital to such belief is the construction of viable
avenues of meaningful exchange between people.
Informed on the need and surplus of others,
people can increase the potential of purposeful
behavior in an effort to substitute concerned
action for isolated action; however, only through
a sense of responsibility (ability to respond)
do people work to inform themselves.
Only through a sense of community do people
work to inform each other.
A democracy, in defining revolution as conversation, broadens responsibility in government
and keeps itself informed ·by greater representation of its citizens in the process of government.
By working to better define the responsibility
and authority of institutional government for
greater economy, co-operation, and representation, schools can hope to realize an optimal
learning environment necessary to fulfill their
commitment to society. Schools are in a position to take a significant step in educating social
co-operation by expanding the co-operation and
sharing spirit of the classroom into a meaningful
participation in the school community. If there
is to be any hope of institutional harmony and
strong social support, we must take that step!

More fighting
THE -SOUTH VIETNAMESE "can contain (the assault) but I
think they're going to have some critical periods, some· tough
times." Such comments summarize the concensus of executive and
state department officials concerning the all-out offensive by North
Vietnamese ' forces across the Demilitarized Zone.
Whole divisions of North Vietnamese regulars began pouring
across the border the two nations about ten days ago, opening
a massive front on the Northern Provinces. other forces came
across the border between Laos and Cambodia opening yet another
front. The heaviest fighting since the Tet offensive of 1968 was
reported in Quang Tri province along the Norther frontier.
Other communist forces are in the provicial capital of An
Loe, about 60 miles north of Saigon. Press reports indicate that the
LAST TWO reserve units from Saigon have been sent to An Loe
to attempt to lift the seige of that city. The two units from Saigon
are President Thieu's own palace guard.
U.S. B 52's are dropping untold tons of bombs on enemy positions
around An Loe in an attempt to break their concentrated efforts.
Other B52's are pounding enemy positions inside North Vietnam in
what the Pentagon- has called "retali,atory'' raids. The hope is that
the retaliation bombing will discourage the offensive in the South.
Other Communist forces are increasing attacks in the Central
highlands and the Mekong Delta, but, although large concentrations of
NV.A and Viet Cong forces are believed to be in the area, they have
not yet been committed to battle. Political observers believe that
this offensive is an attempt to show that Vietnamization has failed,
and to topple the Thieu regime.
North Vietnamese delegates to the now-stalled Paris Peace
Talks said that the North Vietnam high command had ordered its
' forces to cease engaging in battle with the u.s troop$ where possible but that order has now been counter-manded.
Some fourteen bases of South Vietnamese forces have been
overrun in the Quang Tri front. Cam Ranh Bay, the big north coastal
naval installation of U.S. and South Vietnamese troops and supplies
is also under heavy attack.
Meanwhile President Nixon has refused to speculate to what
degree American support would be stepped up. Press Secretary
Ronald Zeigler said that all options are still open but hinted that
U.S. troops would not be re-committed.
President Thieu of South Vietnam has called this offensive the
"final battle" to decide the survival of the people. Thieu went on
to say "I have ordered the army at any cost not to let the two provinces fall into the hands of the Communists."

Beats me
VICE-PRESIDENT SPIRO T. AGNEW spoke at the National Cathedral School for Girls in Washington, D.C. this week. During the
question and answer period, Diana Ridgley, a Black student from
the school, asked Agnew to comment on the much-publicized
''Children's March For Survival." The march, held in the capitol,
and organized by the National Welfare Rights Organization, drew
thousands of children and their parents, mostly from the capitol
area. Agnew, after having the question repeated several times,
said that he had no knowledge of the event. Agnew asked to be
briefed on the subject but Ms. Ridgley simply said, "The fact
that you don't know what I'm talking about is comment enough."

Last Sunday night saw THE INDEPENDENT FEMALE, one of two productions by the San Francisco Mime Troup. The other production, THE
DRAGON LADY'S REVENGE, concerned heroin
traffic in Southeast Asia and CIA complicity in

that trade. The Mime Troupe is the alternate
theatre company, based in San Francisco, that
originated the idea of "guerilla theatre" in which
the audience and the stage can be anywhere, anytime, and on any occasion. The troupe is arranging this tour on their own and because of the
nature of their production, receives no federal
or private grants. Their plays are of a highly
political nature, mixed with very clever satire,
and a high degree of professionalism.

THE PROSECUTION in the Angela Davis trial began presenting
witnesses this week in an attempt to connect Ms. Davis' purchase
of fire arms with the San Rapael shootout in 1970. Several police
guards on duty in the courthouse at the time testified that the
men, lead by Johnathan Jackson, in taking hostages called for the
release of the Soledad Brothers. And, an attorney who was held
hostage in the kidnap attempt, testified that in the getaway van,
in which the hostages were held, he witnessed the court judge
shot to death. He also testlfied that the bullets that have permanently paralyzed him from the waist down, were fired from outside the van, presumably from the guards attempting to stop the
getaway. Among those killed were the judge, Jackson, and twO' escaped convicts.

Trial ends
THE HARRISBURG Conspiracy trial came to an end last Thursday with the jury finally voting 10-2 for acquittal on the key charges
of plotting to kidnap Henry Kissinger, plotting to destroy federal
property, and plotting to blow up heating ducts in the nation's
capitol.
After seven days of deliberation the jury remained deadlocked
with two demanding a conviction.
The verdict does not reflect the fact that Rev. Phillip Berrigan
and Sister Elizabeth Mc.Alister were convicted on Wednesday of a
lesser charge of smuggling letters out of prison. Both will be
sentenced later and they could receive a maximum of 10 years
and 30 years in federal prison respectively. Berrigan is now serving a sentence for his part in destruction of draft files. The other
defendents are out on bail pending a decision by the government
on whether a new trial will be sought.
