"I women's committee lists program priorities A full-time employee to serve as a Woman's Program Co-ordinator has been listed as the number one priority in the March 27 memorandum 5ent to Deans Lewis Case and Jack Carter from the Women's Program Committee (WPC). The March 27 memorandum was submitted as an attempt to point out possible cuts in the $32,000 budget requested earlier by the WPC.. Science Counselor and WPC member Jan Brandstrom, said the Deans told the Committee that the Board must decide if the program can be initiated. They emphasized that the 1973 -74 budget has been planned and the $32,000 being sought for the program would be an addition to the pl anned academic budget. Therefore the Board must decide if there is enough interest to warrant the program, C as e said. (Sea March 6 issue of the TORCH for a com;,1ete explanation of the program). Case said the 1973-74 academic budget is about $100,000 over what it should be. "I don't see how we are going to fit it all in," he said. Although he does say that they will "do as m1.1ch as possible with existi.1g .~adlities." Ms. Brandstrom does not think existing campus facilities can adequately handle the problems that the program is designed to solve. There are many subtle sexist problems existing at LCC, says Ms. Brandstrom. Many counselors work dose to 60 hours per week added Ms. Brandstrom, and it would be impossible for them to take on any more work. Ms. Brandstrom stated that it would take a full-time employee just to discover and investigate all of the problems. The proposal originally asked for two fulltime female program coordinators and one part-time secretary. .................... .................... .................... ..... executive cabinet requests vp 's resignation Last week the ASLCC Executive Cabinet requested the immediate resignation of ASLCC First Vice President Chuck Packnett. In a memorandum distributed to all Senate members, the Executive Cabinet accused Packnett of ' ' apparent 1a c k of interest and lack of attention to his position and the Senate," and cited areas in which Packnett fiad failed to perform. ASLCC President Jay Bolton said the request came as the result of pressure the Senate is under, "The job that needs to be done is not,'' said Bolton. ASLCC Treasurer Bob Vinyard criticized Packnett's handling of elections, and said he confronted Packnett with the suggestion that Packnett resign early in Winter Term. But Bolton added that he hoped Packnett would admit his neg 1i gen c e, correct his ine q u i t i e s , and r e m a i n on the Executive Cabinet." Chuck can be very effective if he wants to be," said Bolton. Packnett declined to comment.

The decision was made Thursday when Mass Communications Department staff m3mbers completed discussion on the goals of the D-apartment and voted on a general statement of goals and on the qualifications they :nost desire a new department chairperson. Virginia DeChaine, who resigned as Department Chairwoman late in January, effective the end of Spring Term, urged the group of nine faculty and two secretaries to establish a set of qualifications for applicants and to set a deadline for aoolications. :Ms. DeChaine said she is re- · signing because she wants to do more teaching and less paper work. "I am not resigning--contrary to some people's beliefsbecause of problems within the department, philosophical or otherwise,'' she said. The Mass Communications staff listed four general qualifications they would "prefer" the new department chairperson to possess. They prefer applicants to have a background in all areas of mass communications offered at LCC (speech, radio and TV broadcasting, journalism, photography, and communication theory). Applicants should have a master's degree (or its equivalent in experience) in one area, and should also have . experience in -teaching. Some type of management background was also deemed im:mrtant. 1However, Speech Instructor Mary Forestieri warned against "prioritizing'' qualifications. Ms. Forestieri said she felt a lack of emphasis on any one qualification would '' make for more honest applications." The Department will present the Administration with the list of suggested qualifications, as well as suggested publications for advertising the departmental vacancy. The Administration will· then '' draw up an advertising brochure" as the ! first step in procuring a department head, according to Communications Instructor Joyce Harms. A Screening Committee, made up of faculty members, secretaries, minority and student representatives (one each) will act to nominate two or three persons to the Administration Selection Committee for the post. Th e Administration and th e Screening Committee Chairperson, according to existing procedure, will make its preference known to the Department, and then both teaching staff and Administration must reach a final agreement which is then sent to the LCC Board of Education. The Department voted to extend an invitation to Jay Jones, ASL CC Senate advisor, to serve as minority representative to the committee. , One student representative will be elected by Mass Com munications Department students to serve on the Committee. Television Broadcasting student Bob Nagler said he will arrange the nomination and election procedure for a student representative. Ms. Harms was elected at the meeting to serve as Chairwoman for the Screening Committee. Her first action as Chair- \ woman was to suggest a deadline for applications--which was subsequently determined as May 25. The new department head will assume responsibilities July I. Journalism Instructor Pete Peterson presented a prepared s t at e m e n t of suggested Mass Communications Department goals and the implementation of these goals. He moved that the the statement be supported by staff members as a written expression of the Department's philosophy. - The motion was passed by an 8 to 2 vote, with , two abstaining. The primary objectives of the Mas s Communications Department as outlined in the adopted proposal are: (1) The development of the ability to communicate thought and feeling, (2) the improvement of powers of appreciation and evaluation in listening and viewing, and (3) practical experience in the skills of the various phases of departmental programs. • The proposal said that to implement these ob.~ectives, " (A) the student is made aware of the conditions existing and the skills required in that (studied) field of communication, and (B) that the student is permitted to pur- sue his own interest in that area of study, with the advice and assistance of the department.'' Discord among staff members as to the "proper" implementation of goals led to discussions in March concerning the possibility of dissolving the Mass Communications Department However, a vote prior to Spring Term vacation, determined that the majority of the Department wanted the Department to stay intact. Dissenting members (2) filed a minority report explai~ing to the Administration reasons for discontinuing the Department as it had been structured. There was one official abstention. At a meeting of communications students held March 14, Speech Instructor Fred K9Ue1 expressed fears that the Department would not tie able to re- WOUNDED Knee has become a household word.

WASHINGTON - Watergate con spirator James Mc C ord ha s all e ged that pressure was brought on the Watergate d e fendant s to plead guilty and, thereby, to k eep th e details of the scandal out of the court r ecord. He also named higher-ups whom he claimed had advance knowledge of the Watergate break-in and hugg in g . His charges have brought howls of denial from the White House. I happened to be at the Arlington Towers, where the Watergate defendants were holding their secret strategy sessions just before Christ mas. I was waiting in a nearby room for one of the Watergate figures to report the lat est developments to me. After the session broke up, my informant slipped into my room anti reported that powerful pressure had been brought on the defendants to plead guilty. He said E. The Innocent Bystander Shut VP and play Wat-e rgate by Arthur Hoppe Our furious Congressmen are about to arrest the President or somebody. That's because nobody in the White House will talk to them about The Watergate Scandel. Thus the Nation is in the grips of a Grave Constitutional Crisis. An aroused public is asking searching questions, such as, ''What IS The Watergate Scandal ?" Actually, to understand The Watergate Scandal, all you need do is buy a set of the exciting new fun game, "Watergate!" Once you have read and comprehended the simple rules, the whole thing becomes crystal clear and you will become a WellInformed Citizen. First of all, Watergate! is played by 4,371 players and two dice----{lll 4,371 of which should be loaded. The object of the game is to get to the White House. Or, if you are so inclined, simply to get the White House. The first players are a group of Cuban refugees and ex-CIA agents. They land on a square marked Watergate! They land there to get Larry O'Brien. They hate Larry O'Brien because he is a hippie. Each of these players then receives a card which reads: "Go to Jail. Go directly to Jail. Do not pass Go or any other infor mat ion. Collect $10,000 a year.'' The other players then draw cards and money. They draw their money from a box marked, "Stans.'· There is lots and lots of it. It is very clean money. It has just come back from a laundry in Mexico. The cards the pl axers draw are most interesting. For example, should you draw a card reading, " Segretti," you immediately-poof!-vanish.

Jim Crouch Editor Production ( Continued on page 4) 0r'f Twoweasel~i,ec TORCH Staff Editor Many of the cards force you to leave the White House. The " Chapin' ' card makes you move to Chicago. And you can't talk. The "Mitchell" card is a bit better. With it you resign from The Committee to Re-elect the President Among other Things and become a rich Wall Street lawyer < But your wife's name is Martha. So you don't get to talk either. In fact, only one player in the whole game gets to talk. He's the lucky one who draws the "Zeigler' ' card. This entitles him to say, "No comment, " 16,347 times. A good card to draw is "FBI." This empowers you to investigate crime. To investigate crime you go directly to the White House. The players there don't know anything about crime. Yo are so grateful you give all your secret information about crime to their attorney. He will keep your secret because he, of course, can't talk. Sometimes the wrong cards get mixed in. One might say, "Remember to contribute $300,000 the day after the election. Receive either one Ambassadorship to Luxembourg or one phone call entitling you to get out of a Swiss jail free. But such cards are from a similar, but different, game. This brings us to where you draw your cardso You draw your cards from the President.

My informant said Hunt had a charismatic influ ence over the other defendants. Most had worked under him during the Bay of Pigs plotting . We wrote a story, which was published on December 261 h, about the pressure and the $1,000-a-month offer. But we held back the other details to protect my source. We are now free to tell more about the incident. although we still cannot reveal the source. But the 4ncident strongly suggests that McCord is telling the truth. White House sources also told us months ago that presidential aides John Dean and Jeb Magruder were far more deeply implicated in the Watergate affair than they were admitting. These are the same higher-ups whom McCord has now named. We don't pretend to know the whole Watergate story and have been able to put together only some of the jigsaw pieces. But the way to get the truth is for President Nixon to cooperate with the Senate, not to obstruct its investigation. Deep Concern We reported on June 12, 1969, that the Kremlin was seriously considering a preventive attack on China. The story was confirmed two months later by CIA Director Richard Helms, who told newsmen about the danger during a deep background session. Since we didn't attend the background .session, we are free to reveal that Helms was the man who confirmed the story. The Kremlin wanted to knock out China's nuclear works before China developed nuclear missiles that could menace Russia . The Central Intelligence Agency now believes it's too late for Russia to consider a preventive attack. China now has an estimated four dozen nuclear-tipped missiles deployed against Soviet cities, including Moscow itself. The CIA has no doubt that Russia would win a nuclear war with China. But the CIA believes the price would be too high. It almost surely would cost Russia most of her great cities . Most intelligence experts agree with the CIA. But some of President Nixon's key intelligence advisers inside the National Security Agency still regard a Soviet attack on China as a real possibility. The Soviets now have at least 41 divisions massed along the China border. They are backed by an arsenal of nuclear weapons. White House sources tell us the President is deeply concerned that the Soviets might strike. He warned Soviet Chairman Leonid Brezhnev in Moscow last year against such an attack. The Presi- d en( is w or ried that a war be t wee n Ru ss ia and Chin a wo ul d erup t int o a wo rl d war, w ith horribl e nucl ear dev asta ti on . E ven a nuclear ex chan ge bet ween Rus sia and China, alone, would endang er the U nited States. For the United States is downwind from Asia. The wind currents would carry the nuclear fall-out directly over this country. Thus. President Nixon, once the implacable foe of both Communist giants, is now in the curious role of trying to keep peace between them. Still There The withdrawal of American military forces from South Vietnam definitely does not mean the United States is abandoning the Saigon regime or pulling out of Southeast Asia. The military command has simply been transferred from Saigon to Nakhon Phanom in Thailand, just across the border from Laos. The command will continue to operate, keeping air and naval forces on the alert, until the peace is stabilized in Indochina. Meanwhile, the United States will continue to bolster South Vietnam with economic aid . Counting both direct and indirect aid, the American taxpayers will pay between 70 to 90 per cent of the actual cost of running the South Vietnamese government. The United States will also supply friendly governments in Southeast Asia with all the arms they need to stay in power. Military shipments will be increased to Australia, Cambodia, In(Continued on page 4) Letter to- the - Editor Dear Editor: • I would like to bring a misprint to your -::i.ttention.

O.1e of the persons named was Carlo John Sposito, alleged age 20. :::;posito' s actual age is 31. This mistake invalidates your introdudory paragraph; in fact, the entire article is falsified by this one misprint. I believe that news should be reported accurately., e.:,pecially an event that has grown to national prominence whithin th1~past couple of weeks. The TORCH should make every effort to get the proper facts, and print them as they are. I realize that quibbling about a person's age might seem petty to you, but I think living for 31 years is to one's credit. Carlo would appreciate you knowing the truth.

' The pamphlet, "Shopper's Advocate," claims that Warernart charges eight per cent below average market prices in three categories--dairy, brand name items and lowest overall. Shopper 's market was said to charge 14 per cent below average for meat. Albertson' s, Big C, and several Mayfair stores, among others , were found to have prices above average in several categories, according to the pamphlet; although no store was below or above _ average in all five categories.

President Nixon also intends to maintain American military power in Asia. The 7th Fleet will continue to patrol Asian waters, alt hough it has already been cut back from six to four carriers. A Marine division will also be kept in Okinawa, if permission can be arranged with Japan. The 7th Air Force will make its headquarters in Thailand as long as Indochina is threatened by Communist forces. The President ·hopes to reduce this threat by offering economic aid to Hanoi and persuading the North Vietnamese they would be better off developing friendly, peaceful relations with the United States. Thereafter, the 7th Air Force would be pulled back to the Philippines. A couple of years ago, this powerful American presence in Asia would have upset Peking. But now the Chinese Communists secretly welcome the 7th Fleet and 7th Air Force as a deterrent to the Soviet forces massed on the Chinese border. Concert scheduled A back-up band for the Grateful Dead and other big bands, Notary Sojac, will appear in a concert/ dance at Westmoreland Community Center from 8:30 p.m. to 11:30 p.m. Saturday. Admission of $1.50 per person will include a stage show. Tickets for the dance, which is sponsored by SCOR~ (Serving the Community and Offering Recreational Experience), will be on sale at the center, 1545 W. 22nd Ave., beginning at 8 p.m. The six musicians in the group combine their talents on variety of instruments, including guitars, flute, saxophone, trumpet, multiple percussions, organ and piano. Water Walkers, the spring edition of the LCC Literary Ctub magazine, is on sale this week 1 with new illustrations, photographs and prose by LCC students. According to Literary Club President Mike Crouch, the original intention of the Club, when it was formed two years ago, was to publish a literary magazine each term, under a different name as a vehicle for campus writers. The Club is separate from the magazine, although many of the club members are on the magazine stan. In an interview Thursday 1 Crouch listed some problems that have plagued the magazine from it's beginning, and still do, the foremost being funds for printing. "The Senate has repeatedly refused to allocate funds for this project 1 even though other colleges receive funds from the student body to print this same type of publication.'' He said that newsprint was used in the current issue to save on printing costs. The literary oriented group refuses to allow the magazine to become commercialized through advertising space sales to finance printing. Maga~ine sales have improved and publication will continue based on thos'e sales profits for the time being, according to Crouch. "There's a great deal of satisfaction in seeing your name in print," Crouch said "and there are many more writers available for the magazine than we've seen yet." The magazine sells for 35 cents a copy, and can be purchased this week in the cafeteria, near the restaurant cashier area, at the club office or the Language Arts Department office, both located on the fourth floor of the Center Building. Linda Moore is editor of this edition of Water Walkers. Applications are being accepted now for three editors for next year's issues. Applications are also being accepted for president of the Literary Club, and the only qualifications needed for either position is an interest in publication and writing. The club meets Wednesday, April 4, at 3 p.m. in Room 402 in the Center Building. Playground toy prototypes target of design class A Spring Term class at LCC is planning to create "crawlthrough dinosaurs" and other playground equipment, according to -Roger McAllister, chairman of the Art and Applied Design Department. The Independent Projects section of the Basic Design class will be planning prototype models for playground pieces for the Mount View Elementary School in Cottage Grove. Some of the pieces will be built there by LCC students in the summer. McAllister said plans call for the class first visiting Mount View to get an idea of the setting and environment. Input from the elementary school students will be important, McAllister said, in finding out what they want. McAllister said the class will then design and make prototype models and submit the best ones for approval 1o Mount View Principal Analyne Flanagan. In a January 18 letter to Roy Mullen, superintendant of South Lane (Cottage Grove) School District, McAllister said '' The types of structures we have in mind are climb-on airplanes, helicopters, boats; crawl-through. . . dinosaurs and whales .•. " Mullen enthusiastically granted his permission for the project, McAllister said. McAllister hopes that local businesses will donate materials ·and, possibly, some labor.

Here women are judged on poise, posture and presence in an evening gown. Included in the evening gown area is an interview with judges. Second area is the talent area. In this section contestants sing, dance or present dramatic pieces. The third is the swimsuit section where women are judged on posture and presence. The talent area is worth 50 points and the other two are worth 25 points apiece). Ms. Perkins felt that there was too much emphasis on the swimsuit judging. _She said that '' the judges interview should be tallied in with the swimsuit section, thus taking away som~ of the emphasis on the swimsuit section." She explained that the rationale for the swimsuit area is to let judges examine contestant's posture, but said, however that "posture could be judged in street clothes ' just as well as in bathing suits.'' "I think all the women looked fine in their eveni~g gown," said Ms. Perkins, "Judges could - examme the contestants in street clothes for posture." In the first elimination process the field of 16 contestants was narrowed down to 10 who com peted in the finals. . In the talent area of the semi-finals Ms. Perkms presented a monologue from the play "Street Car Named Desire." Her presentation of talent ' posture and poise earned her a finals berth. And in the finals Ms. Perkins presented an original piece, written by one of her friends entitled "A 51ice oi Cake." ' In this scene she portrays Marie Antoinette on the eve of her execution. The theater major felt uncomfortable with the 2 minutes and 55 second time limit for contestants talent presentation. "It is hard for me, as an actress, to get into the part in that short of time," said Ms. Perkins " so I had to have a scene written for the pageant.' We even edited the scene way down in order to .build to a climax, 11 she added. Ms. Perkins also had problems with the "hec, . tic conditions behind stage at the pageant. It was difficult for me to get into the role of Marie Antoinette. Some girls back stage were very nervous and doing a lot of back-patting. As an actress I found it very, very rough to prepare for my dramatic presentation,'' she added. However, on March 17, at Sheldon High School Ms. Perkins was nominated by the pageant judges at "the most talented semi-finalist." Along with her title Ms. Perkins received a $50 scholarship for her education and a tropby. Whether or not Ms. Perkins will compete next year in the pageant is not clear. She is tempted by the scholarship money to finance her education she says, but has not given it much thought to that possibility yet.

After receiving the final approval from the Mass Communications Departm13ntChairwoman, Virginia DeChaine, the station still faced a serious problem. "We were limited,'' Lewetag explained, "having only three records, so we went around to radio stations in Eugene and Salem and asked them if they would donate their old records." The response was unbelievable, he continued. Besides "receiving records from different stations, KPNW (a local Eu• gene station) donated 500 albums."

".. .is probably ,the closest thing . . .to commerci al broadcast ing" "KLX is probably the closest thing a student will ever come to commercial broadcasting." According to the station manager, KLX, operating without an FCC license, is not illegal because the station broa(lcasts over a cable. "You can broadcast as far as the cable goes without a FCC license," he said. The station is received in the cafeteria, through dial retrieval, and anywhere else on campus where the cable goes. Lewetag boasted that besides being a radio station, KLX serves as an information center, reading theLCC Daily Campus Bulletin, news items from the TORCH, and other information they receive from campus groups. Except for a little red tape and the fact that the station takes up facilities in the television department that are normally used for instructio:i, KLX had few problems getting off the ground and remainin~ in operation. "One of our main reasons for operating in the evening,'' Lewetag stated, "is so we don't conflict with the tele7isi.on classes which are held •• during the day." _ In addition to Lewetag and Nodine, three other Lane students help run the station. No credit is given for working on the station and the disc jockeys vofunteer their · time.

According to Athletic Director· Bob Radcliff, recruiting could be done with a minimum of expense, consisting possibly of out-of-state or outof-district fee waivers, books, or partial tuition aid, or could be confined to the LCC district.

All exhibits ar e viewed by a screen.ing committee. composed of three Ar t Department instructors before being scheduled for public display. Hoy said the Art Department would like to show a large variety of art in the gallery, but to date f most shows have been Western style paintings and ::~ sculptures.

Charm course • increa ses emplo yabili ty by Robin Burns Skills are only the third consideration in an employer's viewpoint when interviewing an applicant for a job. According to Marcia Bussey, instructor of the Personal Dynami9s class at LCC, the employer's first and second considerations are his first imprission of the applicant and the applicant's appearance. The purpose of the Personal Dynamics class is to help female students - increase their hireability by developing good grooming skills such as wardrobe coordination, make-up application, hair care, and nail care. The students also learn good posture, gr.rceful walking, and interviewing skills. "This is technically a self-image class," stated Ms. Bussey, who has taught modeling school and managed a private beauty shop. ''I try to do as many 'things as possible to let the student see herself." Because the students tend to resent being told how to improve themselves, Ms. Bussey uses video tapes so they can see the image they present to others. The women in the class also make suggestions to each other on areas of improvement. One term of the Personal Dynamics class is required for women in the Accounting-Glerical, Clerk-Typist , and Secretarial programs. According to Jack Kreitz, chairman of the Busines_s Department, a similar class has also been scheduled for men, however, there have never been enough men interested to get the required number (18) to hold the· class. The class for men, according to Kreitz, was not required but rather an attempt to see if men would be interested in a class of that nature. Ms. Bussey is trying to get the class extended to two terms because she is "dealing with personalities," trying to help develop self-image, selflike, and individual goals. Ms. Bussey said that she finds gr ading difficult, but grades on a scale of personal improvement, responsibilit y as shown in class.

The volunteer, non-sectarian organization which offers this service is Birthright of Oregon, Inc., which opened a local chapter March 5 in the downtown Eugene Mall. Birthright offers counseling to women who are considering bearing their babies: "We do not offer abortion counseling-we try to talk gir)s out of having abortions,'' said Ms. Lee Sowers, Birthright's treasurer. Women volunteers who staff Birthright's headquarters are being trained by Dr. Sterling Ellsworth, a clinical psychologist, to assist the worn,1:m in planning their lives after the delivery. The volunteers are prepared to offer help in locating housing, planning for education and/ or employment, placing babies for adoption, and in finding child care for those women who decide to keep their babies, Ms. Sowers said. Two attorneys are serving as informal advisers to the o r g an i z at ion, and one physician, Dr. Ianora, is offering his services at a reduced rate to women who are unable to pay the standard fee for prenatal care and delivery. Ms. Sowers also said Birthright finds foster homes for those women who cannot live at home during the course of their pregnancy. Birthright was founded in Toronto, Ontario, Canada, in February, 1968, and has expanded to 100 chapters in the US. There are three chapters in Oregon: the others are located in Portland and Corvallis. Ms. Terry Ianora., Ianora's wife, was instrumental in the founding of the Eugene chapter. The local chapter of Birthright is operating from rented quarters in Rm. 210, Ardel Bldgc, at 33 E. 10th Ave. Office hours are 10 a.m. to 4 p.mo, and a telephone answering service is maintained 24 hours a day.

For this piece, he designed "King," or "Queen." a form expressing the dynamics of the right angle which presents the same silhouette no matter which side of the Knight is placed on the board. Since the Bishop moves on the diagonals, he therefore rendered that piece in the shape of an "X" to represent movement on the diagonals. The King was a large cube with a smaller cube set askew on top. This expresses the fact that the King may move one square in a straight line, like the Rook'_s move, or one square on the diagonalwhich can be interpolated because the upper, smaller cube is turned askew from the larger base cube.

The game was a lot of fun but the purpose was dead serious. The Oregon Architectur al Barrier Council is a state-wide organization with the purpose of freeing the environment of architectur al structures which work as barriers to the handicapp ed-barriers like staircases and door frames that are too narrow to get a wheel chair through. The game was organized by the Eugene-Springfield chapter of the OABC to raise funds for expenses (such as postage) and mainly to spur interest in this community in the OABC and it's aims. The KUGN radio all-stars played a team comprised of the OABC Tyrebiters and the Portland Wheelblazers. The Tyrebiters- Wheelblaz ers were all handicapped, while KUGN players were not. The Tyrebiters are a new team. According to their coach, Ken Durkee, also handicapped, the team has been together only about two weeks, and the game at LCC was the first of it's kind in the area. But the Wheel blazers have been in existence a long time. They are comprised of handicapped athletes from the Portland area and they play in a regular organized wheel chair basketball league with teams in ·Tacoma, Seattle, Vancouver, BC and Portland. They would like to see a team like the Tyrebiters become a member of their league. This is the third year of the Wheelblazers according to their President, Fred Rider, and the second year they have competed in the league. 'The first year ended in a poor l-win-11-lo ss season, but the wheel}":iJ blaze 7s rebounded l~st ~ear and ·1:1 compiled a seven wm five loss • record in the West Coast league to win second place. They took third place in the regional tournament of teams from California, Washington and Canada. So far this year they are 35 and 7. .. The sport is unique in many ·. - ~ways. It takes a good athlete to ·-,, play the two 20 minute halves without dragging his tongue on the court. Shooting the basketball from a moving wheelchair is a difficult feat. It's also tough to play fast-breaki ng basketball in a wheel chair. _ ''You have to have endurance and a suicidal tendency,'' says Coach Durkee, "It's more of a thinking man:s game." The advantage normally coveted in basketball is useless except on the jump balls. The players have to be quick and strong, as well as quick-witte d and strong-will ed. There are also a few special rules in wheel chair basketball. Coach Durkee For instance, a player is allowed (continued on page 12) 'Iintramural sports planned I Spring is here and the Intramural Office is ready with a full schedule of activities.

Almost a hundred years later Indians have again gone to Wounded Knee, this time in a more organized fashion, under the Ameri- -Ulili fli~• can Indian Movement (AIM) to protest their claims of broken treaties, repression and exploitation by the federal government. While the 200 militant Oglala Sioux hold the historical hamlet of Wounded Knee, awaiting the fate of their demands, sympathy, in the form of money, medical supplies, and food has poured in from all over the nation. However, federal agents have been stopping and arresting people en route to the Pine Ridge Reservation. A little over a week ago, five persons, on their way to Wounded Knee with a truckful of food and clothing, were taken into custody near Bend and were charged with aiding and abetting a riot. Despite the possibilities of arrest, local groups are still taking donations of supplies and. money for the Indians. At LCC a table has been set up by the Native American Student Association (NASA) in the cafeteria for the purpose of collecting donations. According to Frank Merri 11, president of the N.hSA, the group supports the action being taken by the Indians at Wounded Knee. Merrill stated that '' it is justifiable that the Indians took over Wounded Knee, because that is the only way the government is going to recognize us." He went on to state that most of the members of the Association feel that violence is the only way to gain recognition, even though they support nonviolence. "However," he explained, "we are forced into it. We try to do it peacefully and nobody will listen.' ' According to Terry LaRoche, treasurer of the LCC chapter of NASA, the Indians who have invaded Wounded Knee demand reforms in the governments handling of Indian affairs nationally, specifically, the appointment of tribal councils by the Bureau of Indian Affairs (BIA), the handling of the monies and land by the BIA, and the establishment of BIA schools on the reservation. Ms. LaRoche feels way of indoctrinating the Indian hired and have to compete for the into what the government wants , job instead of being appointed.

They leave the reservations , they can't handle jobs because of a lack of education and their ignorance. Merrill stated that keeping the Indians together is one of the NASA's main purposes at LCC. "We he 1p each other stay in school," he stated. "Our mainpurpose out here on the campus is getting the students through school and back on the reservation," He ended stating,' 'by sticking close together like we are, we help one another quite a bit."

LCC commu nity speak_s out on Wound ed Knee (Editor's Note: TORCH reporter Steven Locke asked several people of the LCC community if they felt the Indians were justified in taking control of Wounded Knee, to make the US government "bend to their demands." Following are several comments:) "I can sympathize with their position and I think the use of violence is definitely justified, if for nothing else just for the fact that they have had it bad for so long." '' I think that the way out country is set up that there are better ways of getting your demands met.
