Apathy seen on NeYI York campus

Buffalo, N. Y.(CPS)-The student
government of the State University of New York at Buffalo recently tried to revamp their
organization to be more representative of the student body.
However, the Student Association (SA) could not stir enough
interest on campus to get the
constitutional requirement of ten
per cent of the student body
(about 1,200) to vote on the referendum.
The SA wanted to establish a
system wherein student representives would be elected
from the various academic areas.
Members of the SA had voiced
their dissatisfaction with the existing system in which candidates
for SA positions were provided
by special interest groups.
As one SA member said recently
ly, "The only people whopa.rticip2.ted in the Assembly were
those who had a stake in the decisions . . • thus what happened if some club wanted an increase in its budget, it would
designate itself an interest group
and send a representative who
would go to one meeting to vote
his club more money."
The results of this type of
organization, he said, were
''either no or poor participation.''
Participation and interest in the
SA organization were demonstrated when, although SA extended the voting period, only
seven per cent of the student
body voted on the reorganization
referendum.

Vets Corps proposed for Winter Term
by Larry Wilder

''Vets Corps,'' a proposal by LCC student Rick Diggs to
encourage vets to utilize their GI benefits , has been approved
in concept, by Dean of Students Jack Carter.
"Vets Corps'' is designed to assist vets in every way possible to get the most out of their benefits, and the most out of
their training and education, according to Diggs.
Diggs, a vet himself, plans to use LCC students who are
studying in such areas as journalism, and television and radio
broadcasting to write, compose, edit and shoot film commercials
for the local media that will advertise GI Bill benefits, and the
program at LCC other advertising will be presented in the form
of speaking engagements, displays in shopping centers, posters in
businesses and industrial centers, and visits to youth centers,
churches and employment offices.
Diggs feels that in order for the program to be a success,
there must be strong coordination with "Vets Corps'' members
and members of the existing LCC counseling staff.
Diggs hopes to begin the program Winter Term. He said
he could be contacted in the student activity area for more information.

According to the Oregon Community College Student Association's (OCCSA) President, Harvey Scott, the organization, which
represents about 100,000 Oregon students, has finally found a
directi,m .
The question as to which direction the OCCSA should take
was the main theme of the organization's three-day convention
Thursday, Friday and Saturday at Diamond Lake.
Past OCCSA President Greg Millet said that the organization
had come along way since it was started six years ago. Looking
back he stated that "when we started out, we didn't have a typewriter. The conventions were so rigid that everybody wore suits,
and everyone was afraid to speak out The presidents' meetings
were open only to the presidents, and usually nobody went to them.
Nothing was done."
One direction many delegates wanted the organization to take
was to back political candidates and issues. But President Scott,
agreeing with the majority of the delegates, felt that sinc·e the
organization has no experience in such things as lobbying, the
lack of experience would most likely make the effort worthless.
Feeling · already over-burdened with dues and student body
fees, Tresure Valley Community College objected to the organization becoming political because of the rost. They agreed with
delegates from the other small colleges that in order for the
association to go political, a new monatary system based on prorated dues, (where dues are paid according to the number of represented students), would have to go into effect.
Another major controversy which arose during the convention
was the relationship between OCCSA and the Oregon Student Association (OSA). In a speech before the community college delegates,
Greg Leo, ·osA's state coordinator, stressed the point that cooperation between the two groups is of the utmost importance. He
explained that the "OSA is only an educational service that would
disseminate information about bills in the legislature to the schools
who are free to use the information as they see fit. Since there
is so much legislation concerning higher education," he went
on to say, "the two organizations should work close together,
because duplication would be absurd."
Leo explained that '' OSA is not trying to gobble-up the Oregon

Since there are more two-year colleges in the state of Oregon
than four year institutions, the two-year schools are in no danger
of becoming a minority."
Leo ended by encouraging the community college delegations
to work with CEA .so that together they might strengthen the efforts

resolution was passed that the OCCSA would indorse and affiliate
itself with OSA.
Two resolutions, one endorsing the opposition to Ballot Measure
Nine and the other supporting the right of faculty and classified
personel to engage in collective bargaining, were passed by the
association.

analysis of this Measure on page 2.)
Since the Measure would strip Oregon public schools of 70
per cent of their operating funds, and would not guarentee property
tax relief, and furthermore does not provide an alternate source
of revenue, the OCCSA requestes that voters vote no on Ballot
Measure Nine, the resolution said.
Also during the convention a LCC delegate, ASLCC First

After his victory Packnett said he believes the primary purpose of the OCCSA is leadership. He stated that in the past the
OCCSA has lacked direction and effective leadership. "It has
been a boat without a captain," he said.
According to Jack Hart, ASLCC publicity director, the Senate
spent about $500 to send six LCC delegates to the convention.

ANALYSIS

Effects of Measure feared
(Editor's note: The .following analysis of the possible effects
Measure Nine could have on education was written by TORCH
feature editor Lee Beyer.)
Wh at does measure nine mean to you ? According to some people
wo rking against the measure it may mean the end of higher ·education
for low income students in Oregon.
The measure, which seeks to eliminate the use of property
taxes as a means for support for public education was put on the
Novembe r ballot by the Oregon Farm Bureau through an initiative
petition .
Two of the people fighting the measure are the student body
presidents of Oregon' s two major universities, Bill Wyatt of the
U of O and Dave Dietz of am. Earlie r this month they announced
the formation of " Students Against Measure Nine ."
According to Wyatt, the group will be putting out literature to
schools and different gr oups throughout the state and will also be
making an extensive speaking tour the last week before the election.
Wyatt said that the group did not want to peak too soon and added,
''what we want to do is make one hell of a big push a week before
the election."
A report re leased by the Oregon Department of Revenue showed
that 380 million dollars are raised through property taxes each
year to support public education in Oregon.
According to State Representative and LCC administrator
Richard Eymann, (regarded as the tax expert of the Oregon Legislature) elimination of this tax base would mean that the legislature
would have to come up with a new tax plan (s) quickly. Eymann said
that the people of Oregon have only approved two tax proposals in
the last 10 year s , both were cigarette taxes. As Wyatt puts it,
"removing property tax as the educational funding base leaves
little incentive for the public to install another tax to take its plac e."
Should the measure pass , Eymann said, methods to replace
the revenue include: a 150 per cent increase in state income tax,
a 9 to 10 per cent sales tax, a one per cent value added tax on all
state produced products, or elimination of the federal income tax
deduction.
There are many more possibilities, according to Eymann, but
the fact is that it probably would take a combination of tax increases
to come up with the necessary funding. Eymann points out that the
people have already said "no" to tax increase many times in the
past, especially in the case of a sales tax.
Eymann thinks that public schools would be closed for at least
the first six months of next year while the legislature worked out

America. Here are his four
strategies:
-Southern strategy-To
break the Democratic party's
hold on the South, Nixon
began playing Southern politic~ in 1968. He promised a
Su1ireme Court more sympathetic to the South and tried
unsuccessfully ·to appoint a
southerner to the first Supreme Court vacancy. The
President also slowed down
the rush to integrate the
schools and came out against
busing.
-Catholic strategy- The
President has courted Catholics assiduously by opposing
abort ion and favoring federal
aid to parochial schools. This
is expected to cut into the
traditional Democratic vote in
Catholic parishes .
- J ewish strategy - Nixon
has taken a strong pro-Israel
stand. which is winning Jewish votes away from the Democratic party .
-Labor strategy-The President intervened to prevent
the GOP from adopting its
customary anti-labor platform. He also arranged to be
at the golf course at the right
time to join AFL-CIO chief
George Meany for a round of
golf. Afterward, the two men
talked privately for more than
an ·hour. Thereafter, Meany
used his personal influence to
try to stop individual unions

Pat Horton attacks LINT

Pat Horton brought his quest
for Lane County District Attorney to the LCC campus Tuesday Oct. 17 calling for a"common sense approach" to drug
abuse cases.
Horton opened his presentation with an attack on the present system of prosecution in
n a r c o t i c s trials and the Lane
Inter-agency Narcotics Team
(LINT).
'' Incidental and casual use of
marijuana is a misdemeanor and
it should be treated as such. I
think we should be more con cerned with the hard drug influx into the area," Horton said.
The former deputy DA feels
tax dollars are wasted with the
filling of courtrooms with casual
pot smokers.
Horton voiced his displeasure
with LINT, referring to a paid
informant system as, '' Totally
untenable to our s y s t e m of
justice. I don't think it's respectable or honest, and it's certainly not professional." He suggested that trained policemen
would be better suited for that
kind of undercover work.
Crime prevention was also emphasized by Horton. "The answer to drug abuse is not solely
locking people up. You don't prevent crime that way," he said.
He believes the problem could be
licked if law enforcement would
join hands with groups that approach drug abuse from medical
and social points of view.
After Horton delivered his un-

Members of the U of O and
LCC Vietnam Veterans Against
the War (VV AW) announced last
week they will sponsor the film
'' The Winter ~oldier Investigation" Monday on the U of 0
campus. Donations ($1), for the
admission, will go towards the
group's drive to "adopt a Vietnamese orphan," a VVAW
spokesman said. \
" The Winter Soldier Investigation" received high praise at
the Cannes Film Festival this
year on the French Riviera. It
also received excellent critiques
in the New York and San Francisco showings.
Scott Camil, who is touring the
country with the film, will speak
after the film is shown.
Camil , a VV AW member, is
presently under indictment for
alleged conspiracy to disrupt the
Republican National Convention
in Florida.
The film is sch e du 1e d at
7:30 p.m. Monday inl77 Lawrence
Hall at the U of O.

prepared speech, he answered
questions from listeners.
LCC student Michael Scholl
took the podium and peppered
Horton with questions concerning a recent Oregon Court of
Appeals reversal of a conviction secured by Horton, and also
offered rebuttal on charges made
by Horton against Naslund.
Although their words might
not be classified as heated their
exchange drew a crowd near 90,
a number that Jack Hart, ASLCC
publicjty director, termed as,
''Surprising since Senator Mark
Hatfield is speaking in another
area on campus at the same
time."

they run in the same circles."
"We confiscate a lot of marijuana because theres a lot of it
around with the hard drugs,"
he continued. Concerning prosecution of marijuana arrests, Naslund said that neither he nor his
deputies enjoy prosecuting marijuana possesion cases but,' 'I have
to prosecute according to the law,
and I encourage anyone who takes
issue with the law to change it."
Taking issue with Horton's
condemnation of LINT's use of
unprofessional paid informants,
Naslund said, "There are no
people in the field without police
training doing any investigation
on c rim in a 1 cases involving
drugs."
Naslund also answered charges
that he had refused to meet
Horton in debate. Naslund said
that he appeared, as scheduled
for a joint statement session
at KZEL radio, but that Horton
had not.
Naslund labeled a Horton statement concerning a 1,000 per cent
increase in "unnecessary" outof-county t rave 1 expense as
''flatly false." He said that he
had checked with the budget coordinator for the county and had
found "our budget for travel is
actually down 10 per cent." He
said that he didn't know where
Horton had gotten his facts but
that "Program budgeting is very
complex and it's awful easy to
say one thing or another.''

Naslund

''I'm taking a lot of heat
with LINT but I'm not going
to change my policies any, for
political or any other reason,"
said incumbent District Attorney
Robert Naslund, as he spoke to
students at LCC Thursday.
The Lane County Interagency
Narcotics Team (LINT) has been
the object of frequent criticism
by Naslund's opponent.
In defense of LINT's activities Naslund said that the police
must investiagate where the hard
drugs are and "where you find
hard drugs you find marijuana-

position in forestry, which she accepted.
Ms. Nail, a second year student and one
of four female Forestry students, now w:-Jrks
as an assistant to the instructor ma'dng sure
first year students have proper field equipment use . It is projected by Phillips that M~.
Nail will also help second year students w5.th
material for classes th,~y miss.

Being a cocktail waitress, a mother of two, and
an assistant instructor is a heavy load for anyone,
but Ms. Sharon Nail, a second year student of the
Forestry Technician program ' seems to be
holding her own very well.
Ms. Nail works weekends as a cocktail waitress
at the Eugene Hotel for banquets and dances,
which, after tips, pays fairly well. "I'm definately
not a Women's Lib activist," stated Ms. Nail.
"I'm not even sure I understand this Women's
Lib movement. I do feel that if a woman performs
the same job as a man, she should be paid the same
wages. This Women's Lib thing isn't what motivated
me to choose this field of study."
But she performs a job at LCC which has been
traditionally filled by men.
Ms. Nail grew up in the Junction City and Eugene
area and lived on a small farm for five years.
"I wanted to do something I was interested in,"
commented Ms. Nail.
She inquired about an outdoors job for women at
the Eugene Employment Office and they referred
her to the Willamette National Forest Office and to
LCC. When she talked to an LCC counselor, he
told her of another woman, Janet Levinson, who
had graduated from LCC and is presently working
for the Bureau of Land Management in Eugene.
John Phillips, an instructor in the Industrial Technology Department, again encouraged her and event- ,

The job possibilities for Ms. Nail after graduation should be good, as last year there were
eight more jobs available than there were forestry
students. The LCC Forestry program staff has
found jobs for all of its graduating students for
the last nine years.
The Forest Technician Prog'r am prepares students tor careers with state and federal agencies,
and with private forest products and logging oper•

Lane's two year program offers an Associate
of Science degree in Forestry which allows the
student to concentrate in such fields as log scaling:
timber cruising, surveying timber sale administration, and reforestation.

Several candidates to attend
Senate sponsored 'fair'
by

Lee

Beyer

The LCC community will have
a chance to meet many candidates
running for state and local office without leaving the campus
due to the efforts of LCC student Stan Nielsen. Nielsen has
put together what he hopes will
become the first annual LCC
Candidate's Fair.
ifeilsen, who is the LCC liaison for Congressman John Dellenback, said that the idea of
the fair came to him when he
noticed many students were unable to see or hear most of the
people running for office.
With idea in mind, Nielsen went
to the Student Senate and asked
for support, which included obtaining needed space for the event
and some financial suppor~ mostly for advertisement. With the
Senate's approval, Nielsen went
about the task of getting in contact with each candidate and getting them to confirm an appearance.
Nielsen said his main problem
was getting the addresses and
telephone numbers of the candidates. He said his first idea was
to call the local headquarters of

~2>~.,

the Republican and Democratic
parties. This method proved successful at the Republican camp,
but when he called the Democrats
he said he got such answers
as "We're too busy,'' or "I
don't have that list." Nielsen
said he finally decided that they
didn't have the information and
so he decided to look elsewhere.
His next idea, which proved successful, was to get a sample ballot - - with this list he was able
to get in contact with most of
the candidates and all that remains is to get a form letter
mailed to each candidate for
confirmation of appearances.
Nielsen says that candidates or
their representatives from every
post from city offices on up to
candidates for the presidency
will be giving three to five minute speeches.
The Candidate's Fair is scheduled for Nov. 1 in the Forum
and Center Buildings, from noon
to 2 p.m.

The symposia are sponsored
by the Linfield humanities division, assisted by a grant from
the Joint Committee for the Humanities in Oregon, which receives its funds from the National Endowment for the Humanities.

In this enlightened and modern
day, genuine haunted houses are
difficult to find, especially in the
Eugene-Springfield area.
But, for the past 10 years,
the Cedar Branch Auxiliary has
provided area residents with entertainment for the Halloween
season by sponsoring a genuine
haunted house as a benefit for
the Boys and Girls Aid Society
of Oregon.
The house chosen each year
to be haunted must be demolished
after it is occupied by the local
spooks--it is no longer fit for
human haqitation. And each year,
the selection of 'about-to-bedemolished' dwindles, and the
project is in danger of being
dropped for lack of an appropriate site.
However, there will be a haunted house this year, says a soci1~ty spokesman. A large, empty
house at 415 Country Club Road
has been donated to the Cedar
Branch for remodeling into a
haunted house.
The haunted house will be open
for business Oct. 28 through 31.
Anyone interested in helping with
this project as carpenter or
ghost, may call Cedar Branch
President Phil Grant at 3449615, or Booth Manager Gary
Timms at 688-0932.

The ~-rproval of the $5,600 athletic budget to send LCC athletes j
to national competition marks the removal of one of the most ridi culous polici es of the college. Long a thorn in the side of the LCC
athletic progr am, the old policy prohibited blue chip Titan athletes
from participating in competition higher than regionals.
··Fru stration'' i s a nutshell description of the athletic sit uation of l as t year at LCC. Frustration due almost entirely to the
r ece ntly sc r atched policy. Lane wrestler s Ken Kime and Murray
Booth were both barred from national competition l ast year even
though outside sources offered to pay the expenses of the two. In
track and field, as well, athletes were also deprived of the highest
~ompetition -- t rackmen such as Steve Mar yanski, one of the top
Javelin throwers i n the junior college r anks.
Perhaps achievements will be even greater now that Titan
athletes can look forward to the national s. Already, accor ding to
athletic official s, pr actice sess i ons are showing more and mor e of
the kind of effort it takes to be the best. Fr om Athletic Direc tor
Bob Radcliff comes the predi ction that the present LCC cros s countr y
team will be one of the top five in the nationals.

The Student Ski Associati on (SSA), a nation-wi de organization
of skiing college students, has reduced the price of skiing -- that
sport whe r e the pr er equi site was being a millionaire.
The Student Ski Association , in conj unct ion with about 150 ski
areas, offers a member ship progr am similar in concept to the
airline's youth far e cards. This progr am is open to undergr aduate,
vocati onal , and gr aduate students.
The SSA was founded and i s directed by Kim Chaffee, a Harvard
and Berkeley gr aduate, whose brother and sister are former Olympic
skier s. L ast ye ar the membership totalled over 35,000 college
students.
SSA is recognized as the leading student group in skiing and
works closely with various divisions of the United States Ski Association. This year the organization will be hosting a series of large
intercollegiate ski festivals in the Rockies, Sierras, and in the
Midwest.
Membership in the SSA entitles students to savings of up to
50 per cent on lift tickets, lessons, and rentals during the week.
Saturday, Sunday, and holidays the program brings at least a dollar
savings on lift tickets. The five dollar membership is offered with
a money-back guarantee through campus bookstores and by mail at
the regional office:SSA West,Box 1138, Incline Village, Nevada 89450.

A Salem Kicker heads the ball toward his goal
by Morty StolickThe
LCC
Titan' socce r
team used two goals in the last
five minutes of Wednesday's
game to down the University of
Oregon Foreign Exchange Students, 6 to 4. But on Sunday
the Titans, although using brilliant defensive maneuvers in the
first half, made two costly errors which spelled defeat as the
Salem
Kickers overran the
Titans by a score of 3 to 1.
The overall record for the Titans now reads 5-1-1 and their
league record stands at 4-1-0.
During Wednesday's game,forward Edwin J affarian provided
three goals for the Titans for
their defeat of the U of O team.
Even with their winning record, Coach GeorgeGyorgyfalvy
says the team has some weaknesses. "We need to work on
our passing attack and our inability to get the ball out f ram
our defensive backfield,,, he explained. But Gyorgyfalvytermed

Board adop.ts nevv policy
by Lalana Rh.ne
In its Oct. 11 meeting, the LCC

Board of Education approved a
budget of $5.650 to send LCC
student athletes to national competition this year.
The Board ·also agreed to drop
its old policy that prohibited
athletes from entering national
meets. It adopted a policy instead that supports student participation in national events for
those individuals and teams that
qualify on a national level.
The policy also includes other
student activity areas, such as
music and speech. But according
to LCC President Eldon Schafer,
the Mass Communications and
Performing Arts Departments do
not plan to compete in any national events this year.
The break-down of the budget
includes $2,150 in student body
funds carried -over from last
year's Athletic Department budget; $1,000 raised from private
supporters; $1,000 from general
fund resources; and $500 from
the LCC Foundation resources.
According to Al Tarpenning,
track and cross country coach,
the coaches and athletes presented several recommendations to

the Board on participation in national competition during the past
year.
The Board agreed with
the Athletic Department in concept but there was a problem of
funding.
The Athletic Department said
it didn't have enough money from
the ASLCC and the idea of using
taxpayer money for travel expenses was unacceptable.
At its September meeting the
Board ordered a committee be
formed to investigate possible
ways to fund national competition.
The committee established the
present funding which the Board
aifroved.

Results released on
student survey stats
Statistics were released last
week from a survey of LCC students which indicated LCC student political viewpoints. .According to poll-taker Fred Kelley of the Mass Communications
Department, '' The survey showed
a definite trend in how students
felt. . . at a time when some
of these students had just received the right to vote because of
the 18 year old voting law."
Kelley ran the survey Spring
Term to establish ". . • an
idea of how students viewed the
mass media, their difference in
party affiliation and to establish
some idea of students and their
voting behaviors."
Forty-seven per cent of the
polled students at LCC felt the
Vietnam war was the biggest
issue facing Ame r i c a today.
Seventeen per cent felt that the
environment was the second biggest issue. A survey conducted
by Newsweek magazine (Oct. 2,
1972) showed that 39 per cent
of the 18 to 24 year olds surveyed felt that the Vietnam War
was the largest issue.
When LCC students were asked
what information sources gave
the most accurate and unbiased
information , 46 per cent said
television was the most accurate,
magazines ranked second with
22 per cent. Television a Is o
ranked n u m be r one for the
medium most used by students
for the most political informa tion.
Mag a z in es, however ranked
highest on the list (42 per cent)
as giving the most complete information; television ranked second with 27 per cent, newspapers
were third with 23 per cent.
When asked if they thought
voting in an election was worth-

!t

Clllytsst

while and important, 93 per cent
of the students polled said it
was either very important or
moderately important. But, when
they were asked if they voted
in the special election to raise
the cigarrette tax, about 60 per
cent said they had not.
Eighty-six per cent of the students surveyed were registered
to vote and 90 per cent intended
to vote in the presidential election.
Students who responded to the
survey saw Richard Nixon as
''moderately conservative" and
George McGovern as "moderately liberal:,,
The_survey taken by Newsweek
showed Nixon ranking over McGovern with 57 per cent of the
votes. But in the LCC survey
67 per cent said they would vote
for McGovern. Students at LCC,
according to the survey, felt that
they had trust in McGovern to
solve the problems of the country,
but the majority of these students
indicated they could not trust
Nixon to do the same.
Kelley commented that, '' The
survey taken at Lane was before the Eagleton affair. That
.might have some effect on the
results." But he continued, "Students during the election campaigns often change ideas about
candidates. When the election
comes most students go back
to the first candidate."
According to Kelley, "The survey was established after doing
a pilot study on the subject.
A 1a r g e r survey was taken
throughout Eugene, Springfield,
and Cottage Grove with the same
material. This survey was taken
before the primary election during the same week Governor
Wallace was shot."

There is a myth of elitism
connected with chess which produced the idea that only blue
bloods could learn to play the
game. This myth is probably based on something like, "A game
takes so long to play that only
the elite have the time to enjoy it" a sort of puritanical work ethic which decries
sitting down to have fun (but
sweating out a physical game is
"OK"). Exercise is good for the
soul, but sitting on the posterior
is only for invalids and welfare
frauds.
However, there's alegendconnected with the invention of chess
that throws a different light on
this myth of chess and the elite.
Once upon a time and long ago,
in the land of Ancient East, it
seems that a royal personage
wanted a game that would reduce the popularity of Backgammon. Backgammon depends on
chance, and the blue blood wanted a game for his court slackers which emphasized skill; he
got chess.
This royal personage was immensely pleased when he saw the
invention, both with the game
and the wise man who created
chess. And, as usual in such
tales, royal person offered the
wise-but-common person Gold,
Silver, Jewels, and Kingdoms as
a reward. True to the form,
a 11 these pecuniary remunerations were rejected.
However (and let's give the
wise-but-common person a wry
smile to play with on his ageworn lips), the wise man calmly
said:

_______ L.
It's The Royal Game because
THEY play with me, not because
I play with them.
"Royal Person. No gold, silver, jewels or kingdoms will I
take. Rather, as my reward I
would be satisfied with the number of corn grains it would take
to fill a chessboard if you
placed One grain of corn on the
first square, Two on the second,
Four on the third, Eight on the
fourth - and so on, sixty-four
times."
Remember that wry smile?
The wise-but-common fellow
was being wise. Without bothering
the Math, or my head, the amount
of corn in real terms is something over 200 tall mountains
worth.
As these things almost always
come to in the final end, Royal
Person was greatly gratified by
the wit of the wise-but-common
p e rs on (after the blue blood
TRIED to get all that corn on
the chessboard). And, so ends the
first rec or ct e ct incidence of
a commoner stomping a royalbut-not-so-wise person - on a
chess board smeared with a porridge of corn kernels and blue
blood.
MORAL: Hate chess Kings, but
pity the real ones.

Fadeley reports·on child care
by

ing last week of 4-C staff,
mothers, Ms. Fadeley and other
legislators and the state administration, Gov. Tom McCall
pledged part of the new revenue
sharing money to the 4-C
program.
Ms. Fadeley introduced a bill
during the last session, and if
re-elected, hopes to see its passage this session that would treat
the cost of care of children and
invalids as a business expense
on state income tax. This would
confront the' law-makers with the
importance of child care, even
though some using it might be
so poor as to pay no mcome
taxes.
In responding to questions a-

Art Tegger

bout what practical steps could
be taken, Ms. Fadeley encouraged
concern for the status of different
day care programs. She urged
students to acquire information
and to make contacts with those
in government who might
be
receptive to their cause. In response to specific questions
which expressed frustration at
bureaucrats and a belief that letters were thrown into the" round
file," Ms. Fadeley urged her audience to get involved in partisan political campaigns. She
also urged people to be aware
of which committee works
on which bills and who on that
committee was amenable to persuasion.

Representative Nancie Fadeley
spoke Wednesday night to the
monthly seminar of students enrolled in the Early Childhood Training program at LCC.
Ms. Fadeley, a Democrat campaigning for re-election from a
district that includes Springfield,
Glenwood, and East Eugene, discussed the outlook for programs
in the training of young children.
Looking at existing programs,
legislation and possible budget
cuts, Ms. Fadeley found reason
for hoth optimism and pessimism. Some discouraging news
for those concerned with early
childhood care was the news from
Salem and Washington last week
that the 4-C care program would
be cut six months into the fiscal year. Yet, following a meet-

Measure 9...

( Continued from page 2)
future funding. He added that schools could hardly ask qualified
teachers and administrators that length of time unpaid while the
state de<' lded how to finance educational programs. There is a high
degree of possibility that Oregon could lose a lot of high quality
educators if measure nine passes, Eymann said.
U of O student body President Wyatt said that while he is concerned with the quality of all education in Oregon, as ASUO president
he is particularly concerned with how the measure would affect the
higher educational system. According to the Oregon Constitution,
Wyatt said, the only funding for which the state is obligated is for
primary and secOBdary education. He added that he felt there would
be a real possibility that the legislature would take the funds
currently used to operate the University and use them for supporting
primary and secondary education.
According to Wyatt this would probably mean that the students
would have to carry the entire burden of supporting the University.
If this came true, he said, "we would again see it possible for only
the rich to get a c·Jllege education:'
Eymann, speaking in the same vein, said that if the measure
passes LCC students could count on at least doubled tuition and
quite possibly the college would have to close because of lack of
funds. (According to oDe estimate it could cost students over $500 a
term for tuition if they had to carry the full financial load.)
Eymann said that most people don't realize that many of the
funds that are put up by local taxes and state aid are matched by
federal monies, so if the local monies are lost the federal money is
lost also.
He said that he and most of the local legislators are speaking
against the measure every chance they get and would like to see
more people do the same. He added that most Democratic legislators
have publicly opposed the measure.
Wyatt said that he and his student group will be going to all
the campuses in the state and speaking against the measure.
According to ASLCC President Jay Bolton, a local campus
group is just being formed and plans to work closely with other
student groups against measure nine.

ON OTHER CAMPUSES
Linn-Benton Community College (LBCC) underwent anextensive
investigation by the Northwest Association of Secondary and Higher
Schools during the week of Oct. 9th. The results of their findings
will determine whether or not LBCC •merits recognition as an
institution of higher learning. Although the college is already approved and accredited by the state of Oregon, the broader, regionally based approval is necessary in terms of programs, curriculum, and the transferability of credits.

An interdisciplinary women's studies program has been proposed at the University of Oregon. The two rea~ons cited for developing such a program were that women have been ignored in
nearly all areas of study, and that a number of women students want
such a program initiated.
The long range goal of the proposed
program is full integration of the study of women into the university curriculum.

Half Term, a program offering classes in six week periods
which begin in the middle of a quarter and terminate at the end of
that quarter w-ith full credit, will commence its second season at
Clark College in Vancouver, Washington on Nov. 16. Half Term
made its debut at Clark College last fall and was met with great
success. I t is the first program of its kind anywhere, according
to the school's recent bulletin.
