Board of Education
adopts proposal for
gardening at LCC

The LCC Board of Education
discussed a variety of topics at
its Wednesday meeting (April 26),
ranging from gardening to music.
Board of Education Chairman
Catherine Lauris proposed a motion Wednesday at the LCC board
meeting that will allow students,
faculty, staff and any one else in
the community to utilize the land
around LCC for gardening. Ms.
Lauris explained that projects of
this nature are done in Denmark and work very well.
Ms. Lauris said that plots could
be designated for the planting of
these gardens and it would not
be limited to flowers. "People
could grow their own vegetables
and we could even approach the
food services people and get all
the waste food that is thrown
away and utilize it for compost."
The Board voted unanimously
to adopt this proposal and will
set up a committee to get this
program under way.
Om a r Barbarossa, student
body president, made a statement
to the Board explaining that the
student housing project will open
early in June which is months
ahead of schedule.
Barbarossa went on to state
that Katy Eymann and he have
been appointed youth coordinators on the LCC Campus for the
McGovern campaign for President of the US.
In other business the Board
moved to approve the change of
titles in several courses. Some
of the changes were: The Negro
in American Literature - to
Black American Literature; Introductory Geography to Urban
Environments.
The issue of student travel to
national events came up again
last week when a representative
of the Stage Band came forward and explained that there is
a possibility that the LCC Stage
Band could travel to Washingto DC. The Stage Band has ended up as a finalist in competiton
with seven other bands from the
Northwest out of 40 who originally
entered the competition.
The Board is still considering
the matter of students from LCC
travelling to National events and
agreed that the events should not
be limited to Sports.

Straw vote

May 2. 1972
Evening students
represented in first
Senate night session

Let me say this about that
The first of what is hoped to be an on-going
series of "Town Hall Meetings" occured in the
LCC cafeteria area on Monday afternoon.
The event, organized by members of the Student
Senate and other interested students, was aimed
at developing a wider base of decision making
in the policies of LCC.
Participants seemed equally divided between
staff, administration, and students, and a lively
discussion ensued concerning the issue of Ben
Kirk's uncertain status as an instructor at Lane.
Another topic of interest to those in attendance

was a discussion of ways to bring the activities
of students more in line with the on-going
process of the Lane County community at large.
Dave Otos, a student at LCC, suggested that
students do work in line with their programs
for which they could be paid by businesses in
Lane County.
Some of those in attendance included Ms.
Catherine Lauris, chairman of the Board of Ed··
ucation; President Schafer; Omar Barbarossa,
student body president; and a large contingent
of instructors.

first Skills Fair attracts large numbers

Ins t ant population explosion
was the only way to describe
the LCC campus Thursday. The
first annual Skills Fair attracted large numbers of both adults
and children to tour the campus.
Organizing responsibility for
the event was left in the hands
of Anne Stewart and Ericka Orchard. According to Ms. Stewart
the day was very successful.
The object of the Skills Fair

was to "give the community an
idea of the variety of skills available at LCC," Ms. Stewart
said. According to her, it was
more than a tour of the facilities because the general public
could observe students doing
their work, see demonstrations
of the technical achievements
students are capable of, and get
some idea of where their tax
monies are going.

Summer program discussed

Priorities Review Committee examines budget cuts
It was the third meeting to be held in the past
week. The other two meetings dealt mainly with a
consolidation of the material and information
which the PRC has gathered from their interviews, and a synthesis of their recommendations
thus far.
Another in the series of on-going investigations by the Priorities Review Committee (PRC)
occurred last night in the Board Room of the
Administration Building.
Last night's meeting involved interviewing Lou
Case, Dean of Instruction. Some of the Committee's questions concern.ed strictly financial aspects of instruction, but a great many concerns
were more related to the problem of increased
efficiency of programs. Such problems as who administers what program, de-centralization of the

administration of certain programs, and a justification of other areas was called for.
During the week, the Committee condensed a
number of their findings in the form of direct
recommendations for a more efficient operation
of the campus. Student Activities, Counseling,
Job Placement, and tuition and registration were
all studied in the latest series of recommendations.
Summer school has been an immediate subject throughout many of the hearings. The Committee hopes to be able to increase the enrollment, while keeping costs stable.
The exact nature of the recommendations was
released to the Committee in executive session,
which keeps the recommendations confidential
until the President of the college has looked
them over.

The various departments and
programs on campus organized
displays, demonstrations, and information on the activities that
occur in the day-to-day functioning of the institution.
Ms. Stewart said that a head
count of the number who attended would be very difficult to determine. About 1,000 registered
beforehand, and she estimates
that 2,000 to 2,400 came at one
time or other during the day. Her
estimate of the ratio of voting
age people and children was a
little more than 50 per cent.
The major attraction during the
day's activities was the performance by the LCC stage band
which played to a large gathering
in front of the Center Building.
President Schafer, indicating
his satisfaction with the day's
events, said that "It is this kind
of effort, coupled with the splendid cooperation from all segments of the college, which continues to make LCC a special
kind of place."
Of some significance is the fact
that at 5 a.m. the Skills Fair
opened with a demonstration by
people preparing the pastries
for the breakfast menu. About 16
visitors witnessed the demonstration along with another 16
staff members.

Thursday night saw what was
the first Student Senate meeting
ever to be held at night. It was
attended by the Evening College
Advisory Committee which was
invited to attend by the Student
Senate with the hope of furthering relations between the two
organizations.
Represenatives of the Evening
Advisory Committee were, Tom
Curtis, Jim Dutton, and Tom
Ballard.
Jay Boulton, Student Body vice
president, became responsible
for initiating the night meetings
at the last Senate meeting when
the Senate voted unanimously to
act on his motion. The Student
Senate announced that every other
Senate meeting in the future will
be held at night in the Board
Room at 9 o'clock.
Talk between the two organizations centered around establishing a budget for the night
school advisory committee.
The Evening Advisory committee explained that they never
had a need for funding before
but recently have originatedprograms that will need revenue.
Omar Barabarossa, Senate President , said that the Senate, in
the next meeting will consider
possible funding to the committee.
Another topic of the meeting
was the discussion of the possibility of the Student Senate
retaining Eugene attorney Larry
Gilda.
Gilda said that he felt there
were situations existing at LCC
that would warrent the Senate
hiring an attorney. One example he said was the Institutional
Bill Rights. Gilda said that in
most cases this document was
vague and often so ambiguious
that it could hardly even be used.
Gilda also said that he sees the
Co 11 e g e Board of Education
spending most of its time on
administrative matters and not
concerning itself much with any
student related matters.
Gilda was then retained by the
Senate to do specific work with
the Institutional Bill of Rights.
He is to go through the document and clearly define what_
the students' rights are. Also,
Gilda is to write up two contracts, one being the contract
for the flying Titans, (last Senate meeting the Senate agreed to
loan them money so they could
buy an aircraft) and the other
is for the upcoming Jazz Festival to be held here at LCC.
All jobs being hired out to
Gilda must first be approved by
the Senate in a meeting.
This meeting did not have a
quorum and therefore all motions
must be ratified at the •next
scheduled Senate meeting.
In other business Jay Boulton
resigned as Chairman - of t h e
Board of Tellers in order that he
could run for student body president, and the LCC Soccer Club
was granted $75. The next Senate meeting is to be held tomorrow at 3 p.m.

TORCH

The innocent bystander
It seems now days that the small man can no longer voice his
opinion, make it heard, and get any results that relate to his
problems.
We all have problems, each differing greatly from one person
to the next.
To deal with this multitude of complex and, in most cases,
personal problems, would take a person fashionedafterthe Christian
god.
At the present time we have to settle for a commodity distributed to us by often slow and overpaid administrators. Their
service is known as "lip service."
They always smile and appear to be sympathetic, knowing your .
particular problem only too well, and are positive they will help.
Students appeared at one meeting of ,the LCC Board of Education
and voiced their concern over the 12.5 per cent tuition increase.
Nothing has been done about it on anv level. The Administration
hopes that the issue will die and that they will not have to worry
about being embarassed in front of the LCC Board, or worse,
the community at large. These are tricky times with the budget
once again being presented to our local taxpayers who already
accuse students for passage of the cigarette tax.
The current run of "lip service" is emanating from the
Office of College Facilities. Bill Cox has found it fitting to oppose,
issuing any more keys for student related activities.
It seems that two keys have been lost in the past three years,
and that has thrown a scare into Mr. Cox. He feels that bis security
~taff mi~ht run into _problems with two keys being possibly. in·the
bands of vicious criminals who might, without any warning, come
,
here some night and steal the "whole thing."
That seemed funny after having talked to a few students who
have occassionally found the lower doors to the Center Building
music rooms open: valuable instruments were not protected despite
the fact that the students bad locked the doors behind them upon
leaving.
The TORCH bas been after Mr. Cox for two terms to issue
more keys and his first reply was, "We are going to change the locks
and re-key the area."
That was alright and worked as effective "lip service" at the
time, but it got very old rather fast.
The next encounter was met with official and substantiated
"lip service." The issue bas now been sent to the College c·abinet
where they put it to a committee. Mr. Cox just happens to be on
the committee -- which gives little hope to an experienced purchaser
of "lip service" that the matter will ever be solved this year.
Mr. Cox bas even alluded to that effect.
The key issue was brought before the College Cabinet by the
Key Committee recently with the idea of having students individually
take responsibility and pay a $5 deposit. The Cabinet turned down
•
this proposal.
Mr. Cox said it seems as if we might not get this issue solved
by the end of the term.
President Schafer was approach~d recently and he suggested
a letter be sent to Mr. Cox with a duplicate going to the
that
President's office.
But even with this effort there has been no response
as of this date.
"Lip service" is man's best friend in times of loneliness
and despair. Why, for one thin dime you can dial-a-prayer.

Uncle Hubert makes a face

by Arthor Hoppe

Hi, there, kiddies. It's time
for another chapter of "Uncle
Hubert and His Friends"--the
heartwarming story that ptoves
any little boy in this great land
of ours can grow up to run for
President. And Hubert usually
does.
As we join Uncle Hubert today, he's just scored a tremendous victory. On his third try
for the Presidency, he's finally
won his first primary!
There he is now, bustling into
the kitchen with his warm and
friendly smile as his attractive
wife, Muriel, prepares to cook
his breakfast.

* * *
HUBERT: Good morning, my
fellow American. Let me say
what a great honor and pleasure
it is to be here in your great
American kitchen this morning
MURIEL: Yes, dear. How would
you like your eggs?
HUBERT: Boiled. Please boil
one for two minutes as I love
soft-boiled eggs and one for ten
minutes as I also love hardboiled eggs. I don't care what
others may say, this is my stand
on eggs.
MURIEL: You sure you would
not like them fried?
HUBERT: Yes, I would love
them fried. One sunny-side up,

as I love them sunny-side-up,
and one over-easy, as I love
them ...
MURIEL: I'm sorry, dear. I
got confused. Would you mind
loving them if they're scrambled?
HUBERT: I love scrambled
eggs. I love all eggs, regardless of shape, breed or color.
Wasn't that a tremendous victory speech I gave?
MURIEL: Yes, dear. I'm so
glad you finally got to give one.
HUBERT: I attribute my great
victory to the many firm stands
I have taken on the issues.
MURIEL: I'm sure no one's
taken as many stands as you,
dear. Particularly on busing.
HUBERT (unfolding a blueprint): Have I shown you my
design for an all-new school bus
to meet this urgent crisis? See?
It has a driver at each end and
a teacher in the middle.
MURIEL (puzzled): I'm afraid
I don't understand your position ·
on that, dear.
HUBERT (nodding happily):
Good. And my great victory also
proves that what the people want
is a new face •..
MURIEL: I've been meaning to
say how much I like your new
long sideburn, (cg) dear.
HUBERT: Yes, by simply turning my head to the left in photographs, I c,apture the youth vote.

By turning it to the right, I
retain the support of my beloved
friend, the great leader of organized labor, Samuel Gompers.
MURIEL: I think it's George
Meany now, dear.
HUBERT: They support me
because of my fresh approach
to the issues. I have pledged
to bring the country out of The
Great Depression by giving the
people what I call "The New
Deal."
MURIEL: I only hope you can
keep us out of World War II
(cg) as well dear. Oh, I'm so
happy you finally won a primary. •
HUBERT: Never fear. There is
a higher law that says I will
win another before I'm through.
MURIEL: What law is that,
dear?
HUBERT (raising a forefinger
dramatically): The law, my fellow American, of averages!

* * *
Well, kiddies, tune in again
next time. And meanwhile, if you
want firm stands, fresh approaches and new faces, trust
old Uncle Hubert. He'll make
you any kind you like.

Letters to the Editor
Dear Editor:
I am a student here and a
car owner. Good ol' Chicken
Heart (my car) has served me
• well, and my own heart goes
out to the poor old friend as
we negotiate together the perils of the unpaved parking lots.
We approach intrepidly the fearsome crevices and swamps, and
dodging for level ground, my
faithful polluter becomes a ship
upon a chuck hole sea .
Alas, I thought hard upon the
problem and came to what I
thought was a reasonable solution.
If we charged every driver
50 cents for a parking sticker
and put the money into a fund
to get these earthen break-waters
paved, surely it would_not take
long to be on safe ground. Taking my suggestion to the (and
I use the word lightly), "Student Senate'' I was met with
first incompetence, which did
not surprise me, since all I
have ever personally seen any
one from the Student Senate do
was sit around the cafeteria or
center, drink coffee, and swear
about the Student Senate. And
second, a beauracratic "no one
is interested", which meant it
is too much work to find out
if any one wants it or if it can
be done.
Thus I was left with an overwhelming amount of libido which

initiative petitions throughout the
state of Oregon and have set a
goal of 60,000 signatures by July .
7, 1972. As of this date, our success bas been minimal, with
·very little penetration at the college'' ,and university level. With
summSr1. vacation and finals just
around the, ,corner, it is of the
utmost importance that we organize quickly at the c~mpus level,
carry news and progre~s out to
a state-wide level, and ulti~ately see that the national ne,ws
media prints Oregon's marijuana
story for all the country to hear.
A big task for so little time.
We need your help.
We would like to establish a
network through which information such as petition progress,
decriminalization endorsements
of politicians, school presidents,
and civic groups, and state-wide
progress reports could be compiled in our office and a summary
would be sent out to all campuses via a weekly news letter.
Deadline for information received in our office would be Thursday, so that a flash sheet could
be out to you by the following
Monday morning.
We would also appreciate your
seeking out one or two people,
possible those active in student
government, who might be responsive to giving us some organizational help on campus, seeking out the public endorsement
of the school dean or president
and maybe helping us get time
and space for a rally. If you
would ask them to contact us
at the earliest date, we will
get back to them with advice
as to how they may help.
We plan to conduct numerous
press conferences in the weeks
ahead, and will get all details
back to you.

U of O opens drug information center
A Drug Information Center has
recently opened in the Erb Memorial Union basement (Room 12)
on the University of Oregon campus. The center works in cooperation with White Bird SocioMedical Clinic, and takes calls
and visits from people interested
in any aspect of drug use, whether
Prescription, non-prescription or illegal.
The Drug Information Center
is strictly a resource center, not
a counseling center, and attaches
no moral judgements to the information it provides. Volunteers
staffing the center will supply
answers to any questions onphysiological, psychological, sociological as well as other aspects
of drug use.
The center also has two drug
consultants: Joel Adkins, Assoc.

Professor of Psychology, and
Dr. Leonard Jacobson, a physician at Sacred Heart Hospital.
A lending library in the office
includes books and files on drugs
which anyone may check out.
Anyone having a question that
the staff can't answer immediately will have his question researched and be called back.
Research that may be benefical
to the community at large will
be disseminated through further
press releases.
Drug Information Center volunteers are also available for
talks to classes and organizations, including anyone from LCC
who might have questions to ask.
The center is open from 9 a.m.
to 9 p.m. Monday through Friday
and noon to 6 p.m. on weekends. Calls are welcomed at

686-5411.

It's been said by skeptics that this may someday be the genera-tion that was known for standing knee-deep in garbage, shooting
rockets at the moon.
This becomes more and more apparent as we watch the concern
for environmental issues slide gradually out of vogue, in much the
same way that the racial issue lost its passion in the last few years.
The White, middle class community has continually exhibited a
phobia about sudden change.
But a sudden change is imperative.
A lot of things have to be changed, and fast.
Our garbage is a perfect example. We can no longer afford to
hide our throw-aways, or sweep them under the rug. And while we
are filling up every hole in the ground with cans, bottles, and boxes,
we are draining the natural resources needed to make more.
The solution is almost too simple - use these things more
than just one time.
This is the aim of BRING (Begin Re-cycling In Natural Groups).
Located on Franklin Blvd., just a spit from LCC, BRING will
take your cans, bottles, jars and cardboard boxes off your hands.
Rinse out your bottles and jars, take the lids off, and take them
to BRING. You needn't take off labels since they will be cooked at
a high temperature. If you have a lot of bottles, sort them out by
color (clear, amber and green).
Flatten out your cardboard boxes; they'll take those too.
Tin cans, aluminum cans (the ones with no seams), and tinfoil
can be donated also. Labels should be removed and cans squashed
flat.
Beer bottles are usually returned to their respective companies,
so they would appreciate it if you sorted them according to brand.
BRING is open from noon to six every day of the week, so pay
them a visit. And they are constantly looking for people willing to
volunteer some help.

Election results released
Results of the straw vote held
during the Skills Fair were released yesterday by Paul Malm of
the Social Science Department.
"The mountain 1ab ore d and
brought forth a mouse," said
Malm. "After two weeks of work
in this joint venture of the State
and Local Government class and
the Data Processing Department,
only 286 ballots were cast, about
half that of 1970."
Nevertheless, the mock primary produced a number of substantial results. Senator George
McGovern won the Democratic
bid handily with 52 per cent of
the vote. His closest followers
were "non-candidate» Edward
Kennedy with 12 per cent, Edmund
Muskie and Shirley Chisholm

each with 7 per cent> Patsy Mink
with 6 per cent, George Wallace
5 per cent, and Hubert Humphrey wound up with a scant 4
per cent of the Democratic votes
cast .
Nixon horded the Republican
ballots, carrying a 76 per cent
majority.
In the Senate race, Wayne Morse showed himself an obvious favorite among the college crowd,
collecting 70 per cent of the
Democratic votes, while Mark
Hatfield monopolized the Republicans' favor with a healthy 87
per cent landslide.
other notable victories were
Charles Porter (D.Dist. 4), who
compiled a majority of 51 per
cent; David Red Fox, an LCC

Resolutions for Oregon C. Colleges to
be discussed at Association meeting

Thirty representatives from
LCC will meet representatives
from 12 other colleges at Coos
Bay during the annual Oregon
Community College Association
meeting on May 13 and 14 to
hash out and debate resolutions
for all of the colleges to adopt.
Five different groups from
LCC will attend the OCCA con- ·
ference, with six representatives
from each group. The five groups
to be represented are the students, school board, faculty,
classified employees, and administrators. All of the other colleges will also be represented
in this way.
"The OCCA is unique in Oregon in that the teachers> students, administrators, classified
employees, and school board are
all in one group representing
their college, and working together to pass the resolutions
they have proposed," said Bill

•

Cox, a current representative
from LCC.
Cox explained that any proposal can be acted upon "If
more than 50 per cent of the
representatives from a college

student, won his race (D.Dist.39)
with a count of 60 per cent; and
in the contest for District Attorney, incumbent Robert Naslund won both the Democratic and
Republican vote, outclassing both
of his opponents.
In the County Commissioner
race, Malm stated, one of the
candidates was inadvertently left
off the ballot, so those results
were invalidated.
The election was heavily favored to illustrate any direction
a '' youth vote" may go in the
actual May 23 Oregon primary,
since 76 per cent of the straw
vote participants were students,
and 57 per cent of the voters
were under 25 years of age.
Malm expressed distress at the
voter apathy, but was pleased that
over one third of the voters were
in the uewly-enfranchised 18-21
year old group. For many the
mock election was the first encounter with the Votomatic ballot,
and provided a valuable learning
experience. Malm also had high
praise for his Government class
which handled the balloting smoothly and efficiently.

The atmosphere of "sameness" here at LCC was interrupted

for at least a short time by devotees from the movement for "The
International Society for Krishna Consciousness."
The group was on campus all day Wednesday, passing out literature aimed at informing students about their ''world-wide movement." The religion is aimed at bringing inner-peace to the individual.

'Concert on the ~reen' to be
presented on LCC campus

•

The Performing Arts Department will present a "Concert
on the Green" Sunday on the LCC campus. Beginning at
2 p.m. the festivities will include a concert, followed by various
events all around the school grounds.
The main feature scheduled for the Sunday occasion is the LCC
55 member concert band, directed by Gene Aitken of Performing
Arts. According to Aitken, the band will offer a wide spectrum
of music, ranging from ''jazz to rock to classical." The band will
kick things off at 2 p.m.
Immediately following the concert,-other LCC departments will
join in the fun with a variety of events for the public to participate
in.
The Health and Physical Education Department has an exhibition
mile run on tap, with folk dancing planned to take plac• as well.
The volleyball courts will be open for anyone wishing to play, and
the Student Senate has already challenged staff members to a baseball game to illustrate just where the expertise lies.
Guests will include Dale Reed as Master of Cermonies. Ernie
Carbajal will be the featured soloist with the band. Aitken calls
Carbajal "one of the finest jazz trumpet players on the West Coast."
And scheduled also are four members of the Lane County Auditorium
Association production of "1776."
1'he purpose of offering many events, according to Aitken, is
"to put the fun back into going to a concert by having other things
to do."
Aitken said plans are being made to accomodate those people
who would otherwise find difficulty in attending the concert. For
example, an effort to pick up senior citizens and bring them to
the campus either in a rented city bus or in private cars is in the
planning process.
The concert is planned to take place on the grass north of
the Center Building, but if there is a problem with the weather,
it will be held indoors.
Also scheduled to appear at the concert is Patsy Mink, Democratic Congresswoman from Hawaii, who will direct the first selection
by the band and later address the audience. According to the local.
chairman for Patsy Mink, Paul Nosbich, the New York Times will
be on hand to cover the event.
For anyone interested in a sample of the music that will be
offered, the band will be performing today through Friday on campus as a warm-up for the concert.

Indians a,m for int.e grity, . harmony ·
by Liz Campbell

"Indians are only beginning to
find their identity," says one
Native American; and Lane Indians are attempting to organize
in an effort to hasten the discovery.
LCC's Native American Student Union (NASU) is still a
fledgling group, but officers have
been elected, by laws passed and
long-range goals established.
The key note sounded by the
Union is "organize."
'' Indians still possess their
dignity," says Brian Longie,
president of the NASU, and the
common sharing of problems and
progress through a group such
as NASU can only serve to aid
individual Indians.
Tangible steps are being taken
to achieve this long-range goal
of eQuality and recognition.
"We are attempting to initiate
classes in Native American history and literature," remarked
Bonnie Riggs, NASU secretary.
''We are also working out plans
for a 'tribal council' - in the
Indian tradition." Indians "Hate
time schedules," so the Council
will not be a meeting in the
"regular sense," rather, a gettogether with the business being
taken care of 'whenever' - in
the best Indian tradition."
Dissimilar ideas of time are
a good example of the difference
between Indians and Whites,"
said Ms. Riggs. Another selfevident difference can be found
in the area of money--and how
to spend it.
"Give a White Man a thousand
dollars and he"ll save it and invest it. An Indian with a thousand
dollars will give it away to his
or her friends. A color TV and
wealth are simply not the Indian idea of 'status.' Giving provides greater prestige for an
Indian than saving."
It is for actions and beliefs
such as these that Indians have

been s c or n e d, and oppressed
claim the NASU.
"The answer - an achievement
of harmony - lies in acceptance
and tolerance," said Ms. Riggs.
"The Indian just wants to be left
alone .. ''
Education is another answer
the NASU offers for Indian wellbeing: In both the Indian culture and "White Man's ways.
We want to be able to beat him
at his own game."
''We see violence as only selfperpetuating," stated Ms. Riggs.
"But if we can use the laws
to our advantage, get into politics and become strong together
while at the same time reviving
the Indian culture and philosophy,
we can beat the White Man with
his own methods and remain

culturally intact."
In Lane's NASU, non-Indians
are allowed to participate at all
levels, except that of holding
office.
"But White People can help
by righting some of the wrongs,"
explained Ms. Riggs. "Working
for the reestablishment of broken
treaties, getting an all-important
land base, attempting to understand the Indian ways - these
are crucial to Native Americans
and concerned non-Indians can
help."
Suggestions have been bandied

SPORTS

Griffith en route to fourth
Judges watch as runners take off in the mile
run at the Lane Invitational Track Meet held'
Saturday at LCC. Lane's top finisher in the event
was Randy Griffith who took fourth with a time of
4: 22.3. Randy is in lane three while Titan runners

Bill Cram and Garrie Franklin are in lanes five
and six, respectively. The meet saw LCC finish
last in the field of Clark College, University of
Or~gon Junior Varsity, and Mount Hood CC.

Under-manned field blamed for loss
by Steven lock-e

"Even though some real fine
individual efforts were made we
didn't have much of a chance
with our under-manned field,"
stated LCC's track coach, Al
Tarpenning, after the Titans finished fourth in Saturday's fourway track meet with Mt. Hood
Community College, Clark Junior College, and the Oregon JV's
held at LCC.
Mt. Hood cinched first place,
scoring a sweeping 76 point vietory over Clark Junior College,
which finished second with 38
points; The Oregon JV's had
37 1/2 points, and LCC had 30
1/2 points.
LCC's only first place in Saturday's action came from Steve
Maryanski in the javelin with a

l

toss of 226 feet, 3 inches, which
is just a foot and a half off the
school record. Last week Maryanski broke the school record
in the javelin at the Mt. Hood
Relays with a toss of 227 feet9 inches.
In the running events, LCC
took five second places. Dennis
Hilliard placed second in a close
880 yard run with a time of
1:56,7, just five-tenths of a second off the winning time. Kent
Larsen, Dan Walsh, Jeff Hardesty, and Wilbert Johnson placed second in the 440 yard relay with a time of 43.0. Bill
Cram took second in the three
Jnile with a time of 14:35,6,
Darius Smith, Ken Keefe, Hilliard, and Dave Walker, placed
second in the mile relay with

a time of 3:30 , and tieing for
second in the 100 yard dash were
Kent Larsen of LCC, and Martin
Rogers of Clark with a time of
10 seconds.
Besides five second places
Lane had two third places in
the 120 yard high hurdles and
220 yard dash and four fourth
places in the shot put, 440 yard
dash, the long jump, and the 100
yard dash.
Coach Tarpenning blamed his
loss on the lack of men for the
field events. He pointed out that
Lane did pretty well in the running events.
Lane will travel to Coos Bay
to participate in the Oregon Community College Athletic Association Championships Friday and
Saturday.

12 noon
FINALS, 7pm

Winning streaks have a way of
ending suddenly and disastrously,
just ask LCC baseball coach Fred
Sackett. Sackett's baseball team
began the season with a game
against the University of Oregon
Junior Varsity team and lost 9 to
1. The Titans met the Ducks
again last week in a doubleheader,
dropping both games, the first by
a score of 2 to O and the second 21 to 4.
The Oregon College of Education J, V. also had fun with
Lane in a contest that ended
with a 7 to 6 score with LCC
on the short end. The non-league opposition seems to be the
downfall of the Titans as they
have not come up with a nonconference vi ct o r y so far this
season.
Luckily since most of the losses have come in non-conference
contests they won't count against
the Titans in their quest for a
playoff position. The league record _of 4 wins and 2 losses remains intact as the team goes into the three toughest conference
series so far this season.
Doubleheaders against Southwestern Community Co 11 e g e
and t he Central Oregon C o m mtmity College ·Bobcats will set
the scene for the season-ending
doubleheader against LinnBenton Community College the
division leaders.
Losses in any of these final
league battles would be critical

to the hopes of Coach Sackett
and the team for a berth in the
playoffs to be held in Coos Bay
May 5 and 6.
The greatest problem for Lane
is the anemic hitting that has
plagued LCC throughout the final season. The team average is
a poor .180 and without the bats
of Chuck Dickerson and Tony
Johnson, the team average would
be even lower. Dickerson is hitting a .460 with 11 hits and 6
runs batted in. Newcomer Tony
Johnson is pressing Dickerson
for the team batting lead with
.462 and 6 hits in 13 times at
bat. The rest of the team is hitting considerably poorer and furnishing less in the way of runs
for the beleaguered Titan pitching
staff.
Pitching has been fairly strong
all season for Lane with a couple
of exceptions, notably the University of Oregon game when the
Ducks shelled Lane, pitching for
21 runs. Larry Glaze is taking
the brunt of the 1o ad on the
mound. Glaze has pitched 28 and
a third innings, giving up 14
earned runs and 23 hits. Sophomore ·Tim Curts follows Glaze
in the work load with 17 innings of pitching and a 3, 70
earned run average.
Salvation has been found in the
Titan's defense. That defense has
allowed opponents to hit only .202,
despite games such as 21 to 4
loss to the U of 0,

Sports Briefs

The Intramural softball season
is underway. The first game
played Thursday saw the student
team, 11 Rymer's Reasons," defeat the facultyteam 11 Cheshire's

Superior hitting by the students , including three homeruns, one a grand slam by captain Tim Rymer, gave the students the advantage in the game.

LCC-hosted three way meet Wednesday with a total of 45 points.
The University of Oregon took
first with 58 points, leaving Mt~
Hood in third place with 23 points.
Lisa Fox, Cheri Hawkins, and
Lavada Barber made a grand
sweep of the 200 meter hurdles
grabbing first, second, and third
places respectively.
Penny Shoop placed second in
the long jump and the high jump,
with a high jump of 4' 10", two
inches better than last week's
high jump record. Kristy Phillips took third in the high jump
with a 4'8" jump, also a two

John Thompson's

Oregon Gossip

SECOND OF TWO INSTALLMENTS ... Continued
from last week, John Thompson's analysis ana
review of the "Steve Belko era" of University
of Oregon basketball. Last week John reviewed
the fortunes of the Steve Belko-coached basketball teams.
In 1960 and 1961 prior to competing in the
Pac-8 (which was officially inauguarted in 19&t),
and after the break-up of the Pacific Coast Conference which ·occured in 1959, Belko's Oregons
were NCAA At-Large Representatives. Though
they never won the championship, they were never
the less very competive, losing to number two
in the nation, the University of California inl960
and in 1961 being defeated by the·John Rudometki~
and Chris Appel, USC Trojans, and that loss was
by only two points.
Next came the years when most West Coast
schools expanded their athletic budgets but not the
University of Oregon. This was no fauit of Coach
athletic department
Belko, but perhaps the
brass.
. So, in the next few years the Ducks had very
httle to crow about, though Belko did a tremendous
job with what he had, at one time even drawing
praise from the old master himself OSU's
'
.
"Slats" Gill.
While schools such as UCLA and OSU had •
full time assistant coaches, the Oregon brass
felt they could save money by hiring graduate
students to be assistants. This was a real road
block for Coach Belko's recruiting. These assis- •
tants did not recruit, because the athletic director
didn't provide funds for extensive recruiting.
Belko didn't have much money alloted him, either.
So, he had to recruit in Oregon. Being at such
a handicap he wasn't able to compete with Pac-8
schools.
It was a handicap because the State of Oregon at
that time, or even now did not have enough talent
to stock a Pac-8 team and make it truly competitive.
Finally, after Len Casanova became Athletic
Director, a full time basketball assistant coach
was qired, and more money was made available.
Now, this was after ten years of Coach Belko' s suffering. So, he was finally able to recruit outside
of Oregon, and in the last three years of his
stay at Duckville he recorded an overall record
of 47 wins, 31 losses: he broke even in the Pac-8.
A far cry from previous years.
D~ring _the Belko era at the U of 0, Oregon
had its' first 100 point games. In the 1963-64

season the Ducks scored 105 points in the Gonzaga
game, 107 against Idaho state in the '66-67 season
and 121 in a game with the University of Portland
in the '69-70 season. In his last year as roundball-boss, Belko's team scored 100 points on the
Cal Bears, and 101 on the University of Washington.
Under Belko, the Webfoots won the Far West
Classic title twice, and finished second three
times. Some of the top players in the Belko era
were Stan Love, Steve Jones, Charlie Franklin
Charlie Warren, Nick Jones, Jim Barnett, Gle~
Moore, Bill Drozdiak, Larry Holliday, Chuck
Rask, and Billy Gaskins.
After proving he (Belko) could compete in the
Pac-8 with some help from a full time assistant
and financial support from the Athletic Depart~
ment, it still was not good enough for many
alumni. Alumni pressure was at least partially
responsible for Coach Belko retiring. It may
be more than a partial reason.
It is only fair to point out that two prominent
sport's writers in 1971 stated that Belko's talent
was over-rated, that people expected too much
from_ hi~, and that he was doing a fine job,
considermg he only had one bonafide star, Stan
Love. Coach John Wooden would probably have
agreed with those writers.
After all, it was Coach Wooden who hired I
Belko's assistant at UCLA after Belko retired. I
Frank Arnold had played for Belko at IdahoState I
learning his basketball from him. Coach Woode~
must have had some respect for Belko' s basketball
know-how, or he wouldn't have hired Arnold.
In the spring of 1971 the Oregon Athletic .
Director hired Dick Harter from Pennsylvania
who brought two assistants, which Belko could
• never acquire. And Harter has received more
money to work with.
Harter's goal is to bring th~ U of O a national
championship. His overall record at Penn was
104 wins and 53 losses, with 25-2 and 28-1
records th? last two years he was there. Most
of these wms were acquired from teams in the
Ivy League, which just are not in the Pac-8
class.
Coach _Harter's Philosophy is discipline in the
game, and he wants to outwork the other coaches
in the Pac-8 because he doesn't feel that he can
out coach them. He feels he must out work them to
come out on top.
He states that recruiting is 95 per cent of
a coaches success. That statement, if true, proves
that Coa~h Belko could have been on top if he
had received the same assistance from the Athletic
Department as Harter has enJoyed.
