Change in grading symbols
would eliminate D, F, and NP

A recently formed ad-hoc committee has submitted a rough draft of a new grading system for LCC to
the college Academic Council and is in the process
of polling LCC students and all full-time faculty.
The three--German language. instructor Karla
Schultz, Mechanics Department Counselor Dave Roof
and Industrial Technology Instructor John Phillips,
(all are members of the Academic Council) have proposed to replace the D, F and NP symbols-presently
a.. part of LCC grading procedure-with an "N" standing for "No credit for unsatisfactory performance."
The '' N'' grade would not be computed in the grade
point average (GPA).
Ms. Schultz said that the ad-hoc Committee presented a rough draft of the proposal at the Dec. 4
Academic Council meeting. The Council accepted the
proposal for a public feedback study and asked the
Committee to proceed with the questionnaires and
hearings.
Opinion poll sheets are being distributed to a
number of LCC students and all full-time faculty. If
enough positive feedback is returned then further
1
steps would be taken toward implementation of a modified grading policy in Fall Term 1973.
A change in administrative rule would be necessary before this new grading system could go into
effect, according to Ms. Schultz. The r ational e of
the new proposal acc ording to the committee is as
follows:

• To establish a higher standard of accepted performance by replacing the D grade with the symbol
N. (The D grade, as stated in the College Catalog,
indicates barely passing work, i.eo, substandard performance).
• To eliminate punitive aspects of the present
grading policy ·by replacing the F grade with the symbol N. (The F grade affects the overall student's work
through computation in his grade point average) . .
•To provide a single symbol, N, to indicate unsatisfactory'performance. (The NP symbol would be
use~ only for the pass/no pass option).
•To provide an instructor-initiated symbol, Y,
indicating no basis for grade, which would correspond
to the student-initiated W, indicating withdrawal.
• To base the probation procedure on the student's
non-pr_og~ess in his work, i.e., the symbols N, Y, W
would md1cate non-progress.
Ms. Schultz said the opinion polls will be distributed through the Student Senate, :ctepartment chairpersons, and instructors.
Open hearings on the proposed modification of the
grading policy will be held in the fac ulty lounge today
from noon to 1 p.m., and tomorrow from 11 a. m. to
noon, and 2 to 3 p.m.

The members of the ad-hoc committe for the
modification of the gr ading policy will be present to
answer questions and listen to comments.

Group bans endorsement

The G;PIRG (Oregon Student
Public Interest Research Group)
state board meeting at LCC Sunday,
resulted in several resolutions,
including one that forbids the organization from endorsing products
or services.
The motion passed after lengthy
debate to set G;PIRG's policy as

including tentative plans to make

ASLCC treasurer resigns post
At Thursday's Student Senate meeting, David Red Fox submitted his
resignation as ASLCC Treasurer which the Senate voted to accept as a
temporary leave of absence in the event that Red Fox is able to return for
Spring Term.
Student Activities Director Jay Jones praised Red Fox's performance
as treasurer. Bob Vinyard has been appointed to fill Red Fox's unexpired term (subject to approval of the Senate). which will leave a senatorat-large seat vacant, to be filled by petition.
Also accepted was Vinyard's proposal to establish a 72-hour dead line for items to be placed on the agenda so that all members of the Senate may have a copy of the agenda 48 hours before each scheduled meeting.
~enate n:iember s have scheduled a workshop to plan for the coming
special elect10n when the ASLCC Constitution will go befor e the student s
in a second attempt for ratification. The workshop will be hel d at Heceta House from Jan. 26 to 28.
The Senate meeting was an hour late in starting due to a quorum
challenge made by Russel Ooms, freshman senator from Industrial
Technology.
The challenge was initially attempted by Richard Marshall club
represent~tive from Phi Theta Kappa, but Marshall's right to chaiienge
was quest10ned by ASLCC Senator-at-Large Steve Leppanen since Marshall has not yet been officially recognized by the Senate as a club representative.
Ooms then stood and made the challenge. Later he told the TORCH
he was just "bored with all the gobble-de-gook"occurring in the meeting-.
After an hour recess called by Second Vice-President Ken Walker
there was still no quorum present, but no one challenged the meeting.

you can greatly aid in ·informing
your fellow and sister students

Flu? I've heard a lot about it and a
friend of mine just got very sick and
I'm sure I'll get it too. Should I get
a flu shot? This is a question the
LCC Health Services hears often
lately. Following is their answer:
Flu shots are usually only effective if given at the start of the flu
season--in early fall. This is because one's body needs timetodevelop antibodies.
Flu symptoms are fever chills
headache, muscle ache' sinu~
drainage, sore throat and c~ughing.
There is no treatment for flu-antibiotics don't affect viruses.
If you get the flu, get plenty of
bed rest while you feel bad and for
a day after the fever breaks. Make
sure you drink at leastthree quarts
of fluid~ a day--tea is good for the
throat. Inhale steam, to help clear
the nasal passages and lungs. A
doctor should be seen (one is available from 8 a.m. to noon daily in
Health Services) if a fever, cough
or increased filling of the lungs
persist.
When you have the flu you should

WASHINGTON - The Army,
alarmed over the sudden rise
in drug addiction among
troops in Europe, has adopted
stringent measures to catch
drug users and pushe.rs.
But the new measures, in
turn, have alarmed civil
rights lawyers who fear many
innocent soldiers may be
caught in the antidrug
dragnet.
We have uncovered one
document, for instance, which
was issued last month by Gen.
Anthony Daskevich in Stuttgart, Germany. He recommended that commanders
de v elop informers and
reward them for information.
The general also suggested
• volunteer undercover patrols
to be established to follow up
on the informers' tips.
"Cars entering the post will
be checked and searched at
random ... . Volunteers will
search buildings ... stem to
stern,'' wrote Gener al
Daskevich. The general urged his unit commanders to
conduct frequent shakedown
inspections and to bust
pushers and users to the
lowest rank as soon as
evidence is available.
To handle known drug
users, the general recommended the removal of the
suspect's pass privileges, his
driver's license, his civilian
clothes, even the key to his
room. If the suspect is married, wrote Daskevich, "he
should be required to move
into the barracks where he
can be watched."
Such measures, the general
insists, pose no threat to innocent soldiers. But civil liberties lawyers charge that innocent soldiers have already
been hurt by some of the extreme methods used to catch
the guilty.
Double Dippers
For years, we have criticized retired officers for double
dipping from the federal
treasury. The practice began
nearly a decade ago when
Congress passed the Dual
C~mpensat10n Act. Thanks to
this law, more than 78,000
retired military personnel today collect part of their pension and draw ~ivil service
pay at the same time.
Double dipping has helped
create a military spoils
system, which encourages rigged recruitment, preferential
treatment, unfair hiring and
promotional practices.
Retired militarymen frequently alert friends about to
retire of job openings in the
federal government. In some
cases, jobs have been held
open for months awaiting the
retirement of ranking military officers. In other instances, new jobs have been
created solely to fit the needs
of retiring officers.
•,
But am O ng the w O rs t
abusers of the law are some
70 flag officers now working
in the civilian government.
Some of them collect more
than $50,000 a year from their
combined military retirement and civil ian pay.

deal we have come across involves retired four-star Air
Force Gen. Jacob Smart, who
is now an assistant ad ministrator at the National
Aeronautics and Space Administration. He collects
around $58,000 a year, including more than $22 ,000 in
retirement benefits.
Other double-dippers in elude Lt. General Alfred

Behind the Scenes
IS HANOI HOPEFUL? - •
North Vietnam,, s master
negotiator, Le Due Tho, has
been surprisingly moderate
in his private conversations
in Paris. He has echoed Henry Kissinger's October statements that a cease-fire agreement is attainable and that
on 1y a few r em a i n i n g
problems need to be ironed
out. This is opposite to the attitude he was expected to
take . A secret intelligence
analysis had suggested that
he would be grim and uncompromising as a reflection
of Hanoi 's anger over th e
bombing. Nevertheless, the intelligence reports from Paris
say Le Due Tho has been the
model of reasonableness in his
private conversation s with
diplomats.

We recently saw the old FBI

English instructor proposes film study class

•• ••••• • •

Late Fall Term, Ms. Susan Bennett, an English instructor at LCC,
proposed a new class, Introduction
to Film Study--a film class to
be taught in literature classes.
Ms. Bennett st ate ct, '' The
course 1 s objective will be to provide the student with a history of
film from the early 1900' s up to
present day. The scope will be
international: the students will
view major films by major directors around the world. Another major objective of the Film Study
course is to provide each student
with a critical method for evaluating films. 11
Ms. Bennett said many college
level students now attending LCC
have grown-up in theworldoftelevision. Their source of amusement
has been vis u a 1. "They are
' watchers/ 'listeners': Curious
eyes with the picture before them.
The bulk of their experience has
been visual.
"Our present literature curriculum ignores their experiences
and tries to pull them into ours
(pre-television).''
Ms. Bennett continued, "It's not
that I feel any doubt towards the
validity of the book experience,
but for some students, I do doubt
its effectiveness. We do reach most
but lose more than we like. This
proposed course would be a step
in a positive direction.''
Ms. Bennett thinks film study
might interest students into taking
literature. By entering "art study''
through an experience he/she is
already familiar with, the student
may be better prepared to appreciate literature study.
Associate Dean of Instruction
Gerald Rasmussen said, "In view
of declining enrollment, the
school's policy in regards to new
proposed classes is fairly tight.

expressed, the course could possibly be offered on a trial workshop basis this spring.
According to Ms. Bennett last
fall, 250 questionnaires about the
proposed course were filled out
by LCC students. Ninety-six per
cent indicated that they felt this
course was needed, seventy-five
per cent indicated that they would
enroll in the course if it were
offered.

Lane's proposed course is not
new 0 In a current count made by
interested students and staff there
were 437 colleges and universities
offering 2,397 film courses. At the
U of 0, which receives many Lane
transfer students, two film study
courses are offered, including a
lower division film class. The
proposed Lane course wouldparallel this section.

Materials needed for BRING future
The financial status of BRING (Begin Recycling In Natural Groups)
plays a major role in what new materials may be recycled or reused
stated Peter Thurston, BRING director.
'
I~ order to expand its services, Thurston says, BRING will need
to raise more money and attract new volunteers. More than half of the
wor~ done ~t BRING is performed by volunteers, although the nonprofit organization employs six part-time workers, and although it
is currently financially "solvent" these topics will be discussed at
this Thursday's meeting of the local recycling group 0
"Some people have been working at BRING for more than two
years, and in some cases they're beginning to get burned out" Thurston
said. "This is a time for reju,venation, we'd like to see· new people
come in and .volunteer, and possibly take on new proiects."
Through its warehouse on Franklin Boulevard near the LCC
campus, BRING presently recycles or reuses refillable glass containe~s, crushable glass containers, tin cans, aluminum cans and
alummum products, egg cartons, and high grade ledger paper.
New ~aterials that might be processed at BRING, according to
Thurston, mclude magazines, plastic products and light bulbs. ·' We
have about as much money now as we did last year, ' 1 he noted. ;'We're
not in debt, but we're at rock bottom/'
Two potential sources of new funds will be discussed at the annual
I~eeting. "We've had an offer to work witha private industry that would
hke to recycle large bulk quantities of solid wastes generated in the
Eugene-Springfield area," Thurston said. "We' re also trying to get
a grant from the federal Environmental Protection Agency."
BRING presently receives financial support from the sale of
recycled materials, from private donations·, and from the county
government.
In order to incr_ease the amount of materials recycled, BRING
operates a monthly "BRING-Mobile" pickup at six locations in the
Eugene areaincooperationwi thalocalNationalGua rd unit and sponsors
a weekly pick-up at the Growers Market, located at Willamette and
Fourth streets.

Vegetarians request

Last month OSPIRG released the results of surveys by over
50 Oregon students showing that Oregon's toy shelves are still stocked
with many dangerous playthings.
The events that have followed the report are both encouraging
and disc;ouraging.
On the one hand, OSPIRG's report brought some immediate action

John Early, the producer of the
Learning Resource Center's (LRC)
instructional tapes, is attempting
to go beyond simply recreating a
lecture situation: He tries to enhance rather than merely reinforce
the student's learning.
Recently the LRC did three days
of taping for the Social Science
Department featuring students at• Lane through the New Gate
tendmg
and Work-Release programs developed ~hrough the state penitentary m Salem. The students
talked about their problems in relating to other students. Early said
he hoped the tapes would be of
use to -students who are unsure
of how to relate to those coming
to LCC from prisons, and to prisoners unsure. of the probtems
. they face in adjusting to the college
community.

designed to he 1p students with
problems by giving them instantfeedback. Early said this service
can be especially helpful to students with speech or similar problems--they can tape themselves,
and then watch themselves on tape.

Several other program ideas
are under consideration and in
planning stages. One possibility,
said Early, is a plan to travel
to Salem each week and tape the
Oregon legislature in action. Another is a lecture series en-

titled 14 Life, Health • and You.''
In the Law Enforcement Program a tape is being planned about
new methods of pistol firing. And
taping has already started on the
LCC home basketball games, so
that by the end of the season there
will be a complete file for student
use.

One large program series currently being planned in cooperation
with the Adult -Education Department would teach hand signals to
deaf students.

COBALT VERSUS CHROMIUM DIOXIDE
Both Chromium Dioxide and COBALT high energy
tapes achieve the same result - high frequency
response and low hiss level. ChromiumDioxide,
however, requires a special bias switch on your
recorder or you just can't use it. Chromium Dioxide
also tends to be extremely abrasive to recording
heads and only recent improvements have made it
even useable. COBALT can be used to improve the
frequency response of any cassette recorder , and
it has the same low abrasion as other low noise
ferric iron oxide tapes.

Analysis
62C

by Ole Hoskinson
The ASLCC Senate is experiencing problems in collecting their
projected budget of $106,000 for the
1972-73 school year. In order to
collect that sum:, the Senate must
collect $35,433 every term. According to Fall Term figures the
Senate only collected $34,117. And,
according to college statistics, enrollment is down Winter Term
which will probably cause a further
loss for Winter Term.
Above,i both actual and projected
expenditures are listed. The projected expenditures (shaded) were
what the Senate planned to spend on
thoije items at the beginning of Fall
Term and the other· figures are
what was actually spent.
Student Puplications (TORCH,
Titan code book, Senate Publications) show a ·larger amount than
was actually funded because of an
early payment. For example, the
Senate funds the TORCH at $3,400

a year (the majority of TORCH
revenue is obtained from advertising ) which is paid in three payments. Because the Senate made
the Fall Term pay_ment at the beginning -of Fall Term and the Winter Term Payment at the end of
Fall Term, both totals are shown.
So, for Winter Term the only expenditure for publications should
be the Titan Code Book (if published) or other publications of the
Senate.
Medical Services ran lower than
originally budgeted because their
services did not begin until midFall Term.
More was spent on $alaries and
Tuitions than was budgeted, even
though not all tuition-paid positions
were filled. The only justification
the TORCH was able to find for this
increased expenditure is that more
positions were filled during Summer Term than was planned.

For the last three years, volunteer zoology students have trudged
through rain, sleet, or snow to a bird-banding sight above the southeast LCC parking lot.
Floyd Weitzel of the Science Department : is the commander
coordinator of the bird-banding project. Weitzel and his zoology
students attempt to weigh, measure, and band any birds that are
captured in their nets.
"Generally, we are trying to determine if individual species
use the same area each day and if they migrate to the same area
each year," Weitzel said.
"The trapped birds are small, no larger than Blue Jays,'' said
Weitzel.
Large mesh nets sixty feet long and twelve feet high are used
to catch the birds.
The nets are used only on Friday mornings for
a period of three to four hours and when in use they are nearly invisible and a bird will fly into them unexpectantly, and entangle itself
in the fine netting.
"We check the nets every five to ten minutes
and retrieve the birds in the nets.
The birds are completely un-.
harmed," commented Weitzel.
According to Weitzel once the birds are retieved from the nets
the students weigh the birds, measure the wing lengths, and place
a numbered US Fisb and Wildlife Service band on one leg. Then
they are released.
"Vandalism has been a continuing problem," Weitzel said. "We
have found our nets cut, torn, and even shot up with shotguns. It
has forced us to take the nets out of the field and set them up each
Friday. We used to just fold them up in the field, but with the continued vandalism we are forced to bring them in, which takes considerable time from our project."
Two scholarships were awarded last year to Steve Kirkpatrick
and Jack Voris from the Eugene Natural History Society Scholarship fund for their work in the bird-banding project. Weitzel has
asked for two individual scholarships for students this year.
The banding project started in 1970. Since then, the project
has banded 150 separate birds. Slightly more than 100 of these birds
were Oregon Juncos.
(At press time it was uncertain whether the bird banding project would be offered in the future. Weitzel reportedly cancelled the
program for zoology students because of pressures to admit women
to the project. The TORCH will give a full report in the next issue.)

_Senate bill no. 27, age of maiority ...

Two controversial issues that will appear early this year before the
legislature are Senate bill No. 27--dealing with age of majority--and the
Equal Rights Amendment to the US Constitution.
Bill No. 27 on the age of majority is being held up in committee after
evidence provided by statistics from Michigan which showed Michigan's
arrests of drivers under the influence rose 87 per cent. During the first
year the age of majority was 18.
The Equal Rights Amendment (ERA) might see rough weather in the
Oregon Legislature.
The amendment, if ratified by 38 states, will become the 27th amendment to the US Constitution. Thus far, ratification has been received
from 22 states.
Opponents to the amendment have been vocal on this issue.
The main reasons for opposing the bill amounted to fear that women
would now be eligible for the induction to the armed service as draftees.
Rape would not be classified as a crirqe and one sex bathrooms would be
eliminated.
Margie Cundy of the Lane County chapter of the Oregon Women's
Political Caucus explained that this anti-ERA material that is being
spread through Oregon is unfactual, alarming, and unfound.
The Equal Rights Amendment, if added to the US Constitution,
would grant women equal rights not to be abridged by state or federal
government in cases of discrimination.
Bills endorsing the ERA have been introduced in the Oregon Senate
by Betty Browne, Dem. Oakridge and Nancy Fadeley, Dem. Eugene.

Stude nt activ ist does more than comp lain

Some people do nothing and complain about everything. Others see everything and do something. Jack
Hart, ex-ASLCC publicity director and present (and past)
student activist, is one of those people in the latter group.
Therefore, when Jack announced his resignation
from the Senate last week as publicity director it seemed
totally out of character. Jack usually becomes involved-

he doesn't quit.
But, he explained, he has another idea that he feels
will benefit LCC students more, and also, he further
explained, he dislikes the concept of publicity. The
concept of publicity he said, "implies the same connotation as a used car salesman.
"I don't think the students of this college need
publicity as much as some form of communication
so they can make their needs and desires known to
the proper places so they can have the type of education
they want," stated Jack.
"The only real communication that exists here on
campus," says Jack, "is a downward type of communication that is generally in the form of orders. The students
have very little input into the policy-making machinery."
Jack would like to see a change in this situation.
"I'd like to see students being able to have a say in
the type of instruction they have, the hiring and firing
procedure, classroom size, textbook materials, etc,"
he explained.
He sees this as being possible only
if students "organize and reform some kind of affinity
group... some kind of negotiation group with direct
negotiation power with the Board of Educatioa and the
Administration.
• '' I believe if this is possible, if we can establish
a student rights negotiation committee then it would be
the job of the committee to represent the students'
needs directly to the Board of Education in a civil
manner as the SPPC (Staff/Personnel Policy Committee)
does for the staff and faculty now."
Jack expressed the need for a Students' Rights
Representative who could '' start the machinery going
for the establishment of such a Students Rights Negotiation Committee.
He has submitted two proposals,
one of which is to hire a full-time, paid representative
who would work 40 hours a week, and the second proposal to provide a tuition grant so that a student could
fill the job part-time. Jack stated that he would like
to apply for the job of student representative himself.

political backing by college presses
(CPS)--A new Internal Revenue Service (IRS) ruling states that student
newspapers which receive financial aid from a university can endorse
political candidates without endangering the school's tax-exempt status.
A.n IRS spokesperson said that the ruling (IRS Rev. Ru. 72-513)
also applies to financially independent college newspapers.
The IRS notified the "Columbia Spectator' ' in September 1970
that its tax-exempt status would be revoked if the newspaper continued
to endorse political candidates and take strong stands on political
issues. It then dropped the charge without explanation ~n Mav 1971.
When questioned by the "Spectator," an IRS spokesperson said that
the new ruling didn't arise from any specific case, but from "something that should have been clarified."
The old ruling states that tax-exempt ·organizations may not
devote any "substantial part of (their) activities" to legislative or
political purposes.
The revised ruling reads, "the process of gathering news, doing
research, analyzing data, writing, and editing material for the newspaper on any subject (including political and legislative matters)
furthers the education of students on the n_ewpaper by improving their
knowledge and skills."

"At this time, f know of several people who would
be adequate in the position. The reason I am applying
myself is that I feel I am one of those people.''
He said he hopes that many people would apply
so that the student body could have a large selection
and then choose the best person for the job. He expressed
his belief that a person wanting the job should have
been in the student body for enough time that he/ she

students rights.
"The qualifications ... should be the ability to communicate with personnel at all levels of the campus, and
understanding of the campus, and a real concern for
the needs of students.''
Jack stressed the fact that the job of student representative should be a temporary job, as later the
negotiation committee itself would be all that would
be needed.
Jack concerns himself with student needs in various
ways, and has shown his concern by becoming involved.
He has been involved in the controversy of the welding
program, and was head of a children's park project
initiated by five LCC students--the Flying Frog Project
(FFP) in Florence.
Jack described the Florence Park project experience
as "what I feel the educational emphasis should be at
LCC. I think the work 'community' is fast slipping
out of Lane Community College if it hasn't •disappeared ·
altogether. I think we need to return to the community
and start supplying the type of training that the community
needs."
•
Jack continues to become involved, as in the case
of one of the last Student Senate meetings when he spoke
on his belief that if a student must drop out of school
during the first two weeks of a term, he should be
allowed the full return of his money.
Jack Hart will, no doubt, continue to be outspoken
and involved.

Gymnastic outlook
"not too bright"
by Lex SahonchikThe 1973 LCC Gymnastic team
starts a season of six meets Thursday night in Portland at Portland
Community College. According to
Gymnastic Coach George Gyorgyfalvy ,the season outlook is "not too
bright.'' Inexperienced gymnasts
and the fact that practices did not
start until January 2 due toGyorgyfalvy's commitment to the Lane
soccer team,(which finished a late
season) are blamed for the poor
outlook.
•
Not one of the gymnasts from last
year's team will return to compete
this year necessitating a complete
rebuilding job for Coach Gyorgyfalvy. That task is difficult enough
without considering the fact that
most quality gymnasts pass up LCC
for a school that will give them
financial assistance and perhaps
public recognition.
George will especially miss one
of his better gymnasts from last
year, Jerry Valentine, who has
graduated. "We must train our own
and build our team," says Gyorgyfalvy, "we've done this every year
and it seems that this year we won't
have a good year again."
'f he first home meet for the Titans is scheduled for January 25
