Senate, LCC Board challenge apartment construction

Board of Education
The proposed construction of
the Garden Apartments was the
foremost topic of the first two
ASLCC Student Senate meetings
of the year. The apartments, a
private venture tentatively planned to be built on the west
side of the LCC campus, have
caused a great deal of controversy, particularly because of
the sewage lagoon (see Board
story, this page),
It was pointed out some time
ago that the sewage running into •
the lagoon from the apartments
could, in time, force the college
to curb enrollment. Wednesday,
Ralph Barret; Springfield attorney opposed to the construction
of the apartments, spoke to the
Senate, giving an update on the
proposed construction. And yesterday, Stan Doherty, an owner
of the property, came to the
Senate meeting suggesting that
the Senate go directly to the
builders of the project, Gilbert
and Saks. with their questions.
Doherty, however, did explain
to the Senate that construction
plans call for a ''quad': design,
in which a one bedroom apartment renter would share a kitchen and bath costing the single
renter $80 per month. Altogether, Doherty said, there would be
room for 400 or more people
in the proposed apartments.
Ten acres are now available to
build on until a proper sewer
is developed.
It was pointed
out that one-seventh of the lagoon
is owned by the Oregon Research
Institute
(ORI), two-sevenths
by the Garden Apartment planners, and four-sevenths by LCC.

Resembling two mini-lakes, this sewage lagoon
at the west entrance of the campus has become
the target of considerable debate by both LCC's
Student Senate and Board of Education. Both

Barbarossa receives
iail sentence
Omar Barbarossa,1971-72 LCC
student body president, was sentenced to 30 days in jail and
placed on probation for two years
Monday for welfare fraud.
Barbarossa, who is now attending Linfield College, pleaded
guilty earlier to a charge of attempting to obtain medical aid
through welfare
for
Susan
Cranner on Jan. 5, 1971, by representing her to be his wife.
The former ASLCC president
requested he be allowed to serve
his jail sentence on weekends
because, he told the judge, as
director of the Valley Child Care
Project in McMinnville his services would be needed during the
week.
But Lane County Circuit Judge Douglas Spencer
denied the request and said Barbarossa was to begin his sen tence immediately.
Barbarossa also faces two
other welfare charges, but the
Lane County District Attorney's
Office said those charges would
be dropped.

Wayne Morse
"We helped build up _
the munition power and the armament
power of Japan for profit dollars
as we' re doing all around the
world today.
And if it isn't
stopped, millions of American
boys are going to be slaughtered in the next 25 to 75 years.
• . • We're not bringing under
control in this • country the industrial-military complex that is
getting you ready for the final
holocaust that will come if you
don't stop it."
These words of warning were
a few of many that former Oregon
Senator Wayne Morse delivered
to LCC's
new labor history
class in a lecture on the history of labor last Wednesday.
Morse speaks to labor class
Morse, who says he's ready to
go to the polls "today," is considered by some to be a labor
expert.
Morse told the class and about
50 additional visitors that in the
1930's the longshoremen struck
to prevent the US from sending
scrap iron to Japan -- he said
the iron was coming back to the
US in the bodies of American
boys, and the longshoremen saw
it. He said strikes were the
right of free men and women
and he was one who would never
stand in the way.
Morse told the class "We've
got a great struggle in the labor
movement
now--you've
got
the period of repressive legislation again. You've already got
too much of it passed and more
in the wings to be drawn out
in the next session of congress.
if American labor doesn't wake
up, and American consumers
don't wake up and realize what
their long-time rights are. Don't
forget that judges, congressmen,
senators, and presidents are your
servants, not your masters."
In regard to environment issues, Morse said, "Labor, like
the rest of society, has to be
educated in regard to what the
whole environmental program is
all about." Morse said during
his campaign for the Senate he
has been told many jobs would
be lost if French Pete cannot
be logged.
But he said that
was completely untrue. He explained that there are' 'thousands
of acres of timber" just over
the boundries of French Pete
that could be logged, and French
Pete could remain a wilderness
area "to meet the recreational
needs of the people."
Mqrse continued, saying there
(Continued on page eight)
Vets to receive increase
The House and Senate passed and sent to the President last
Friday a new GI Bill raising veteran's education benefits 25. 7
per cent .
The new increases will be retroactive to the first of this school
year, according to a report from the office of Fourth District
Congressman John Dellenback.
With the President's signature the increases will raise monthly
vets' benefits for single vets to $220; for married vets, $261; and
for veterans wih one child, $298. A spokesman in Dellenback 1 s
Washington, D.C. office said yesterday that the President has not
yet signed the bill.
The new bill is actually an amended version of one passed earlier
by congress in which the House raised benefits 14 per cent and the
Senate 43 per cent. The bill then was sent back to a House committee
where a compromise was finally reached after two months.
The LCC Board of Education
decided without dissent Wednesday night to fight plans for
a student apartment complex to
be located at the west entrance
to the campus. The Board intends
to challenge the apartment
ccnstruction because they f Par
the complex would overload the
·olleg-e's sewage system, thereby
arcing its closure.
Hut the sally to charge may
l1a ve come to late as the developers of the apartment complex,
,·,aks and Gilbert, have already
·t'n~ived approval of their plans
•rnm the Lane
County Commissioners and now 11111st onlv
obtain a building permit which
:iccording to two of the commissioners is a mere formality.
When LCC was built the state
granted the college the use of
four-s('venths of th - s e \\ a g·e
lagoon.
It was assumed that
within a few years th0 city would
run sewage lines to this area.
but the recently adopted 1990
Plan eliminated the LCC Basin
from city gTowth forcing the
college to clepend entirely on the
• lagoon for sewage disposal or
sewage line from Eugene or
~pr in g fie 1d to LCC, which
Marston Morgan, ;_,cc director
of Institutional Researcl1 and
Planning, estimates would cost
"severai million dollars.··
The apartment developers have
now acquired the right to twosevenths o~ the lagoon and the
remaining oae-seventh belongs to
the Oregon Research Institute
(ORI).
In a letter dated Aug. 2 to
the Lane County Commissioners
L.B.Day, director of the Oregon
Department of Environmental
Quality (DEQ) said that because
of the 1990 Plan, "The existing Lane Community Collegl'
lagoon must now provide sewage
service to the college for an
indefinite period in the future
since this department will not
look favorably on any expansio11
on this interim facility.''
The letter continued, "If the
full capacity of the treatment
system is utilized by developments other than the Community College, growth of Lane
Community College may be restricted until such time as regional sewers and servi<-es are
extended into the area."
But, according to the Eugene
Register-Guard, Richard Rriter,
engineer for Eugene-Salem District, said the design capa<'ity
of the college's seven-acn: sewage lagoon is such that it <:au
be expected to accommn<-lat<: the

Dear Editor:
In a free country a forum for
the exchange of ideas is the public
debate. A group of concerned
students support Senator George
McGovern's bid for. the presidency wish to bet the issues of
the coming election before the
students, faculty and staff of LCC.
We solicit spokesmen from the
Nixon and Schmitz people to meet
us in a debate on campus. The
details need to be worked out.
If you believe strongly in the
opposing candidates, step forward and accept this challenge.

The LCC and I U or ·o members of the Vietnam Veterans
Against the War announce plans
for a Veterans Day memorial
service next Monday at Skinners
Butte Park.
We have invited Fourth District Congressman John Dellenback and his opponent, Charles
Porter , to attend, and we invite
all LCC students to join us as
we honor all prisoners of war,
those missing in action, and all
people -- Vietnamese soldiers
and civilians as well as Americans -- who have lost their
lives as a result of the war
in Southeast Asia.
We have asked clergymen from
the Clergy and Laymen Concerned (CALC) to lead us in the
service, which will be non- .
denominational.
We will leave from the city
mall at 9:30 a.m., Monday, and
march to the top of the Butte.

WASHINGTON -For some
time now, Uncle Sam has been
developing a Big Brother com•
plex.
We have documentary evidence that federal agencies
have' almost unlimited access
to confidential information on
citizens. Income tax returns,
social security files and confidential bank records are all
open to federal snoops.
Not even the mails are inviolate. Almost any government
agency can ask the post office
for a mail check to find out
who is writing to whom.
Government agents haveeven resorted to poking into
people's garbage. For a while,
garbage collectors in the District of Columbia had a list of
50 persons whose trash was
set aside and delivered in
burlap bags to a special room
in a government _building.
There, unidentified men would
come at night to spirit away
the bags for scrutiny.
So, it came as no surprise
the other day when we spotted
two government agents, dressed as civilians, lugging large
plastic bags f1lled with trash
aboard an airliner in New York
City. The plane was bound for
Washington.
One of my reporters asked
the -_ men about the bags, but
they only made glib remarks
about helping New York's
Mayor John Lindsay get rid of
the city's trash.
How widespread the garbage game is nobody knows.
But two restaurant owners
from Bowie, Md., had a different encounter with Uncle Sam
on a train recently. The travellers, Kenneth Gill and Donald
Rembert, discussed the Watergate ·bugging incident. They
merely talked about what they
had read in the newspapers.
A few days later, however, a
Secret Service agent knocked
on Gill's door and proceeded to
·question him about his knowledge of the Watergate affair.
It's only 1972; 1984 is still
12 years away. But, apparently, Big Brother is already
watching.
-A Temporary LiftThe Nixon Administration
is rushing to complete a report
before election day which
shows that U.S. prestige
abroad received a big-if only
temporary-lift from President Nixon's trips to Peking
and Moscow.
The United States Information Agency is now analyzing
the ~esults of surveys conducted last spring and summer in 15 countries. According
to sources inside USIA, the
preliminary results show that
U.S, prestige rose in 12 countries surveyed following the
President's trip to Peking last
February. At the same time,
we are told, U.S. prestige
dropped in Japan, Mexico and
Lebanon.
The White House is expected to leak favorable statistics
from the surveys before November 7. But the White
House will probably keep
under wraps another section of
the USIA study which indicates American prestige is on
a downward trend.
The upward move generated
by the President's historic
trips is only a temporary
phenomenon, say our USIA
sources. The general downward drift of American prestige abroad can be expected to
continue into the 1980s.
-Computerized CongressIn the 91st Congress, 435
representatives wasted 190
hours-or five work weekswhile their names were read
slowly aloud to record their
vote. With push buttons on
their desks, the congressmen
could have voted and been
recorded in five seconds each
time.
It now appears that Congress will at last get voting
buttons. An electronic voting
system has been installed and
House computer czar Frank
Ryan says the system will
soon be in operation.
However, initial tests of the system have backfired and
Rep. Wayne Hays, D-Ohio,
who oversees the operation,
has told us he doesn't plan to
sign any of Ryan's vouchers
until the system proves
A-Okay.
(The idea of installing electronic voting buttons first
arose in 1869 when Thomas
Edison offered Congress his
first invention-a telegraphic
vote recording machine.)
- Pentagon PipelineRoutine Briefing- Several
months before the Cambodian
invasion, a ranking general
trooped up to the New York
offices of Chase Manhattan to
brief a roomful of bankers on
the latest developments in the
Vietnam War. One former
Chase Manhattan official who
was present has told us that
the general strongly intimated
that something big was about
to develop in the war. He
advised the bankers to keep •
their eyes on the supply lines
in Cambodia and Laos. We
asked our friend at Chase
he
whether
Manhattan
thought it proper for the Pen~
tagon to brief dozens of bankers on sensitive military
matters. "Whether it's right
or wrong," he told us, "it's
certainly routine."
Luxurious Living-The Navy
is spending over $100,000 a
year to house off-duty sailors
in plush apartments while
their ships are being overhauled at the Newport News,
Va. , shipyard. The off-duty
sailors relax in furnished, fully
carpeted two-bedroom apartments in town. Most of the
apartments have color TVs
and access to swimming pools.
Meanwhile, on-call sailors
working in the dockyards continue to sleep in bunk beds on
crowded barges.

post in the Canal Zone is a
long way from Washington.
But General George V. Under:

He sits in the corner and
laughs; because, of all the pieces
on the board, only the King cannot be captured.
Traditionally, . the King represents his whole social order;
thus, when he falls, the rest
go with him. So when the King
on a chessboard is cornered,
threatened with immediate capture and has no way out, he
surrenders before actually getting taken. And that's the end
of the game which is supposed
to reflect life (wherein the leader sells out when he's threatened).
The monarchy structure has
faded, and the idea of divine
right is not too widely accepted
any mo re-which eliminates
some of the metaphor inherent
to chess. But there is always
the military metaphor, which is
also the last holdout for divine
right. ("It's the uniform you
salute, soldier, not the man!")
As goes the sergeant, so goes
his men; and, as goes tM general, so have already gone his
army. That does describe Chess:
with the King sitting in his corner,
snacking on goodies and chuckling
across the table at his Grand
Wi-Zier, Divinest Right.
Doesn't really seem fair, does
it?
This guy, the King, even sends
his wife out to do his dirty work
for him--not to mention his trusty
Knights, his religious advisors
(the Bishops), his v a 1our o us
Pawns and his summer castle.
Although he does try to keep
his other rook near him, it, too,
is often sent off to do things
ye olde King wouldn't dirty his
hands with, right?
There's another thing, too. If
a game does get down to the
point where he has to do some

work for a change, a stupid King
will get things all fouled up and
a lazy one will make his men
come back and protect him-Even if they are doing something
important!
That's not all, either. He actually refuses to move more than
one space in any direction and
he won't get in there to "Check''
the other King. If asked, the King
will just mumble something about
the rule which says one King
can't check another (And, that's
just another bit of Divine Rightish Special Privileged Hogwash,
even if it is a rule, right?)
Still, there is a bright spot:
it's delicious to watch a King
squirm and (if his hidey-hole
, gets busted open) to see him
slinking around like a second
story man caught flat footed at
high noon.
The moral of all this is to
leave the little guys alone and
go after the big boy. If it is
necessary to take a Pawn to get
the King, do it. But if taking that
Pawn would delay the deposition
of the despot, then leave the
Pawn alone. He didn't hurt you,
did he?
Get the nasty old King, and
set his serfs free!
Remember the adage that the
King often lies under the other
pieces in the bag--and try to
bag him first!

David Larry
David Larry, Independent can••
dictate for Lane County Sheriff,
spoke at LCC Tuesday, Oct. 10.
Larry, whose bumper sticker
reads "a friend on the force,"
pledges "responsible law enforcement" if elected.
His lifetime yields such experiences as that of an educator, a social caseworker, and
an administrator for the University of Pittsburgh.
In his speech at LCC, Larry
said his reason for running is
"the sheriff's department currently isn't doing a very good
job of protecting the community,"
and because the police department spends "way too much time
harassing people and devoting
their enforcement priority time
to crimes that make little or no
threat to the safety of people
in the community."
Larry criticized the Lane
Interagency Narcotics Team
(LINT), saying "it doesn't do
anything to stop the flow of drugs
into the community. He said that
LINT, which was originally funded and set up to deal with the
problem of hard drugs in Lane
County, has confiscated '' about
as much drugs as a mediumrange dealer could bring in on
one day.'' He said that LINT
spent more time in trying to curb
marijuana use than heroin use
and dealing. He accused LINT
of using illegal tactics to trap
people.
He stated his belief that drugs
are a social and medical problem, and shouldn't be under the
realm of criminal law. If elected,
Larry said, he would pull the
Sheriff's Office out of LINT,
or force it to change it's tactics and devote it's time to hard
drugs, the drugs that harm the
people in the community.
Larry said he intended, if elected , to take the police officer out of the jail. Most of
the policemen working in the jail,
he said, are the aggressive ones,
who couldn't make it on the street
as a police officer. In turn they
are put in the jail and consequently tend to take their aggressions
out on the men in jail.
He · criticised the bail system
as '' a system of vampires that
lives off people." The jail, he
said, is a place where the people
who have money can get out of
and the the poor people are forced
to stay. Larry also said that
'' release on your own recognizance should be greatly increased."
HEW approves dental, medical grant
Nearly $150,000 in federal funds have been
granted to LCC for special training of former
military dental hygienists and corpsmen as civilian dental hygienists.
The program, first of its kind in the nation,
was instigated by John Dickson, former director
of the Paradental-Paramedical Department. His
idea was suggested to the Department of Health,
Education and Welfare (HEWHhey agreed, the
money was then allotted to LCC.
HEW pays . all expenses for the class--even
class room space which has to be rented from
LCC by the Paradental-Paramedical Department.
Although details have yet to be worked out,
paradental officials plan to stress individual study
and self-paced advancement. A modular system of
instruction will be used and additional audiovisual equipment for the system will be purchased.
Bob Botcher, professor of science, explained
the benefits of the system, saying;' Modular clas-
ses aren't tied to the academic year. Take for example a class in nutrition. We can divide the
course into six segments and have each student
enrolled take a pre-test. From this test we can
place each individual at his own study level.
It's possible that a student may need to take only
the last four segments and still receive the regular three hours credit for the class." The new
program is geared to graduate a class of
hygienists in 10 to 15 months instead of the normal
two years.
A dental hygienist will play a similar role to
that of a physician's aide (usually a retrained
military medic). But a hygienist will always work
directly with a dentist and never on his or her
own as physicians aides do, Bottcher explained.
The program is to officially begin Winter
Term, with an initial class of eight expected to
take part. A second class of 12 is tentatively
scheduled for the fall of 1973.

Ms. Oswalt said "It is most
likely to involve persons between
the ages of 15 and 28. It can
hit anyone who has sexual relations --homo or hetero. Many
males as well as females can
have the disease, not know it,
and unwittingly give it to others.
But ... it can be treated," said
Ms. Oswalt.
A workshop on VD has been
scheduled Wednesday, Oct. 24

Two parties alike!
Schmitz arrives
as part of tour
AAD program
to improve with
class additions
Classes in furniture design,
glass blowing, photography and
film-making are now being planned by Roger McAlister, now
chairman of the Art and Applied
Design (AAD) Department. McAlister feels that these classes
would greatly improve LCC's
art program by widening its
range.
John G. Schmitz, presidential candidate for the American Independent Party (AIP) made a brief stop at Eugene's Mahlon Sweet
Airport Oct. 9 as part of his whistle stop tour of the state. Schmitz
was greeted by some 50 supporters who listened for 25 minutes
as the California congressman aired his views and answered
questions for newsmen.
Schmitz feels that he can give
the American voter a choice in
the November election, stating
that, "The re's not a dime's worth
of difference in the twoparties."
He referred to the Republican
Party as a "party of the rich"
and the Democratic Party as
"street revolutionaries."
Schmitz, 43, from Santa Ana,
a member of the John Birch
Society and a former Republican,
discussed the major planks of his
party's platform. The AIP platform calls for return of capital
punishment, repeal of all fire
arms legislation, a halt to legalized abortion, and opposition to
women's lib. (The Congressman
said that his wife, who was ac- '
companying him, refused to be
lowered to the status of equality.)
When asked about the war in
Southeast Asia, Schmitz said,
'' The Vietnam War could be stopped with a piece of paper or a
phone call.'' He explained that
90 per cent of the Soviet Union's
technology comes from the United
States and in turn the Soviets
use it against us in Viet Nam.
'' I don't think this country
should be second militarily to
a technology that can't even make
it's own trucks," he said. "All
trade with our enemies should be
stopped."
McAlister, who taught pa rt
time at LCC three and ohe half
years ago, felt some reluctance
at returning to LCC this fall
because he had a previous commitment elsewhere.
Big Brothers and Sisters are
community volunteers who like
kids and are concerned about
them, according to Cathy Pauley,
LCC coordinator. They share
a small amount of their time
with a little brother or sister they're a friend . .
The L C C Big Brother/ Big
Sister Program (formally the
School Aid Program) needs vol-
credit. Part of the Special Veterans Talent Se a r ch/Upward
Bound Program authorized in
1965, the projects seek to identify and motivate deprived youths
to finish school and to provide
the necessary remedial work to
help them qualify for college.
Veterans are eligible for GI
benefits during this period, and
the time spent in training will
not be charged against their entitlement when they enroll in vocational or other higher education
program.
Last Spring, 22,000 people ,
including 1,003 who were still
in active military service, received "free entitlement'' benefits while attending part time
or full time training. Some of the
trainees, 4,620, were in college
taking deficiency or preparatory
courses to qualify for the standard college curriculm.
unteers, Ms. Pauley told the
TORCH. Program representatives are on the LCC campus
CLOTHES FOR MEN
McAlister, who has a master
of fine arts degree from the
University of Colorado, was born
in Eugene. He started his formal
education at Dartmouth College
with the class of 1951. Education
was interrupted by the military
service and he spent most of the
n~xt two years in the Western
Pacific, working as a legal officer.
In 1955, after being released
from active duty, he returned
to Dartmouth to major in art
and a re h ite c tu re. McAiister
graduated in 1957, and then went
to the University of Iowa and the
University of Colorado for graduate work in painting and print
making.

Schmitz attacked the Nixon Administration on its wage-price

Ne~ services for veterans
Almost 350,000 veterans and
servicemen with less than a high
school education have entered
training under the GI Bill,
Administrator of Veterans
Affairs Donald E. Johnson said
last week in a prepared news
release. The VA chief predicted
that even larger numbers will
take advantage of their Gf benefits under the stimulus of new
government programs geared to
support and encourage the backto-school movement.
The p a rt i c i patio n rate for
"disadvantaged veterans'' (those
who have not completed high
school) rose from 16. 7 per cent
as of June 30, 1971, to 23.0 a

Former LCC counselor begins
study at Lane as student
OSA attends
workshop at Salem
by Gerry Domagala -
LCC student Ms. Pauline Dixon has been a student twice and
is now working on being a student for the third time in her life.
Before becoming an LCC student this fall she was employed as
an LCC counselor. Sh,3 retired last year but decided to return to
school.
In 1928, she graduated from the University of Oregon with a
degree in journalism. According to Ms. Dixon her interest in that
field developed when she became editor of her Eastern Oregon high
school's newspaper.
"The year I was editor the paper won a
national award. That was probably one or-the reasons I went into
journalism.''
•
But later she found that she "felt more at home in the educational
field than in newspaper work," so her career became teaching
During the time she was teaching she obtained graduate course
credits by taking classes at the U of o. In 1965 she obtained her
Masters in Education and Counseling and went to work at LCC. At the
• same time, her husband the late Homer Dixon, became superintendent
of schools in Junction City.
When she joined the counseling staff at LCC the school hadn't
officially opened its doors. While still a counselor she became the
first advisor to the TORCH. According to her, ''the TORCH, when
it began, was a four page paper. For the first two years there were
no journalism classes offered. Students who worked on the staff
were entirely volunteers who received no credit."
For seven years as a counselor she listened to thousands of
students. "We always tried to listen," she said. "We never tried
to tell a student what to do."
After she retired last year she moved into a mobile home in
Eugene, but, "For my own peace of mind, I had to get out and do
someth1.ng, and since it seemed so natural for me to be in school, •
I came back to Lane.
"I figured I would take something intellectual and something
physical. So I'm taking anthropology and conditioning."
She commented that, "When you go to school you feel pure joy
when there are no pressures on you. Pressures like making classes,
grades, or passing exams. All I have to do is go to class, listen,
and participate as much as I want to."
to discuss function
The Oregon Student Association, (OOA), mi~t Oct. 7 at Willamette University for a full day
of workshops that included a talk
on the "New Voter" by Secretary of State , Clay Myers, and
a tour of the State Capital buildings conducted by representatives LeRoy Owens and Nancy
Fadeley, both of Lane County.
OS A is a student operatea
clearing house for information
p,3rtaining t o student - oriented
legislative bills.
The theme of the workshop was
"Educate for Citizenship." The
day was spent familiarizing delegates with the functions of
government, especially the state
legislature which is the primary
concern of OOA. Fifteen schools
participated in the event.
Greg Leo, 08A coordinator ,,
said O3A is a "Grass Roots''
operation and mA's strength lies
with its members.
rnA plans to establish an office
at Willamette University, which
is located four blocks from the
state buildings. Plans for this
office include a filing system
that will house all material that
comes out of the legislature pertaining to education bills. 03A
member schools wanting information on a certain issue must
contact the 03A office in Salem
and make a request. Upon receiving request, OOA will re•
search the issue and return information to the p art i cu 1a r
school.
. ,,_.,,_. .,
...
--
,.
One of her reasons for taking classes is, "I like being around
students." Another reason is that, "People who are older should
never allow themselves to become isolated. They should reach out
and keep in contact with others."
'Ms. Dixon, a grandmother of six, has a son who is a doctor in
1Coos Bay and a daughter
who is married and graduated from the
U of O as a music major.
In conclusion, she commented that she "feels more natural being
a student." She likes the "school atmosphere and the academic
environment."

'It's natural'
Ms. Pauline Dixon reflects on past memories as she examines one
of the earlier TORCH's published during the years when she was
advisor. In the past, whenever she glanced at a TORCH, it was as
a counselor. Now, she, along with the majority of people at LCC,
looks at the paper through the eyes of a student. (Photo by Merle

froin Lex Sahonchik
y Marty StalickIn a span of five days the LCC soccer team downed a total of
three opponents to keep their undefeated record in tact at 4-0-l.
The latest victims of the Titan's awesome attack were the U of 0
Coots, OSU Celtics, and the Bavarian Blitzers.
In the first of three league games played during the week, LCC
sped past an inexperienced U of O soccer team by a score of 4 to 1.
Coach of the Titan team, George Gyorgyfalvy, felt that the team
played a better, more organized game against the Coots than they did
against Humboldt State of California (final score 3-3)because of
practices the Titans had during the week. ''We knew what we were
doing -- they didn't,'' commented Coach Gyorgyfalvy.
Results of the Titan-Blitzer game were as follows: First
half -- Blitzers goal by Busto with 2 minutes gone, and Titan goals
by Jaffarian with 6 minutes, and by Li with 34 minutes gone.
Second half-- Titan goals by Li with 4 minutes, and Afskar with
34 minutes gone, a Butzer goal by Domme with 35 minutes, and
a final Titan goal by Jaffarian with 42 minutes gone. (Each half
is 45 minutes long.)

Some of the greatest moments in LCC sports history are going
on right now. This year's LCC Intramural sports program has once
again rolled into action.
Basketball and badminton have started the Intramural schedule.
The basketball segment has begun with the three-man league, which
is made up of eight tea~s comprising about 30 participants.
Badminton tournaments started Thursday and will run for three
weeks. The tournament is divided into three categories: men's
singles, women's singles and men's doubles. The badminton program
enlists 24 men who are involved in men's singles, 30 men in the
doubles and 10 women in women's singles. For some unexplainable
reason the LCC faculty seems to be dominating the competitonDick Newell and Tom Young are defending champions in doubles and
Don Wilson is the defending champ in men's singles. This is the
. first year of women's competiton; hence no defending champion.
Now that we know what Intramurals are we can explain what
"great moments'' take place on the Intramural court. Having participated in the Basketball program last year I know from personal experience that most of the basketball games degenerate
from the high class, admirable competitive ball games one would
expect to a court full of wheezing, coughing, heavily-perspiring
and exhausted "athletes."
With the understanding that the purpose of Intramural is not
to determine winners but to have unrestrained amusement we can
accept some of the scores in recent competiton; such as Team 1
slaughtering Team 2 140 to 76, and Team 8 defeating Team 3 67
to 59.
The Intramural program is open for participation and the sport
is not limited-if any student has any ideas for a feasible competitive sport they are urged to report their brainstorm to the Intramural office, just adjacent to the Physical Education building.

Soccer team takes three
MDT enrolls 70
straight--remains undefeated as dip noticed
Friday, LCC's Richard Cutler was a one-man scoring threat as
he kicked three goals for the Titans to defeat the OS U Celtics by
a score of 7 to 3. OSU's team captain, Blake Miller, blamed the loss
on substitutions: 4'We started our first team ... which was right,
but we fell apart after we started to substitute some of our players.
In fact, we did too much substituting."
Miller also felt that the constant substitution made his players
unfamiliar with the Titan scoring attack -- "Just as soon as we
would get used to who we had on the field, we would have a substitution. That was our mistake."
Gyorgyfalvy commented that other than the Titan's having a little
weakness in throwing the ball in bounds and picking-up the man with
the ball when on defense, he was generally pleased with the team's
good showing. "It was a team effort. They played well," grinned
Gyorgyfalvy.
Sunday, the Titans were stunned when the Bavarian Blitzers
gained a fast 1 to O advantage with two minutes gone in the first
half. But Titan forwards Edwin J affarian and Alvin Li combined
talents by scoring two goals each enroute to upsetting the league's
number one ranked team 5 to 2.
The opening positions on the field could have been a major
factor in the outcome of the score had the Blitzers decided to start
the game facing the southerly wind instead of having it at their backs.
As it turned out, the semi-professional Blitzers had their proplems
when the gentle afternoon breeze turned into a kite-flying gale wind.
Kicking into the strong wind provided even more ha voe when
the ball ended-up five to ten feet from its original destination.

in enrollment
About 70 students have enrolled this fall in Manpower Development Training programs at
LCC. The current sign-up reflects a slight dip from last
year's enrollment, which reached
nearly 100.
The current batch of students
is receiving accelerated training
in welding and clerical assistance, programs which should
take about a year to complete.
Virtually all of LCC's vocational
courses have been involved in the
MOTA program since it was
added to the college's curriculum
in 1962.
In fact, several permanent departments, such as forestry,
were originally developed especially for Manpower Development
students.
The Manpower Development
Training Act was established nation-wide in the early 1960's
by the late President Kennedy.
Since then, 17,600 unemployed
men and women in Oregon have
been trained in new job skills;
LCC has accounted for 1,500
of that number.
Students are referred to the
college by the state employment
service, which is one of several
government agencies involved in
directing, instructing, and funding the program. While in school,
students are provided books, tuition, special fees (for tools and
materials), and, if needed, personal counseling.
Cops arrest cop
(CPS) After several years of
searching, Mexican police finally captured that nation's most

The outlaw had given up his
wild ways and joined a police
force. In fact, he had just been
promoted to sergeant when he
was arrested.

Reed expresses
sympathy for
student needs
Jim Reed
Jim Reed, nonpartisan candidate for State Representative from
District 41 on a write-in ticket,
spoke at LCC to a small group
Thursday.
Reed declared his sympathy
for students' living conditions,
lack of job opportunities, and high
-tuition and rent rates, and lack
of job opportunities.
Asked his opinion of '' victimless crimes,'' Reed said, in reference to marijuana, "I often
find the consumer of this
product the victim. They are a
victim in two ways - - a victim
from the frustration that creates
this desire) . . . they're a victim, too, of the hyper-attitude
of business and government that
has over-sensitized the public to
this one area of concern.
''There is also a concern in
alcohalism that we should be talking about . . . . I am not for
sending someone to jail for stealing a loaf of bread or for taking some type of drug. I am
not for punitive measures. I am
for corrective measures."
Reed took a stand for such measures as collection of tax money
for out-of-state corporations and
reduced need for costly legal services and simplified judicialgovernmental procedures.
