oppisition for the office of ASLCC President.
Red Fox, who drew 140 votes, was followed by incumbent President Jay Bolton
with 127 votes, and Steve Leppanen ran a
close third with 110. The only new candidate, Rick Mathews, received 70 votes.
The 1st Vice -Presidential winner was
also a repeat of the last election. Barry
Hood received 163 votes over opponent Joe
Munoz' 137. In
the last election, Hood
claimed a narrow two vote vlctory over
Munoz.
Barry Gower drew 96 votes for the
First Vice-Presidential seat. In the last
Spring election, Gower won the Second VicePresidential post unopposed.
Taking second Vice-President was incumbent Kenny Walker. Walker defeated his 62
year old opponent J.B. Morris with 219
votes to Morris' 125.
Doris Koumoungis, running unopposed
for the Treasurer post in this election,
received 313 votes. In the previous election,
Ms. Koumoungis defeated Bernie Pinney for
that office.

Publicity Director with 217 votes over Lloyd
Ewing's 138 votes. Ewing won the office
in the last election running unopposed.
Twelve candidates were seeking the five
Senator-at-Large positions. Of those, Roger
Leasure received the most votes with 205.
Virginia Allbaugh filled the second position .
with 174 votes, Terry La Roche won another

with 146 votes, and Dei Smith won the last
opening with 143 votes.
The. :rnw president ran on a platform to
eliminate the ASLCC President's salary and
reduce the 1973-74 budget.
In an interview prior to the last election Red Fox said he would reduce the ASLCC budget in eight areas including funding
of athletics, elimination of convention expenditures and of equipment purchases.
This election eliminated two winners from
the last election. Peter Hale earned a Senator-at-Large seat in the first election,
but lost it yesterday when he pulled only
134 votes. James Hawkins was also a win-

ner from the last election, but pulled only
118 votes in the second round.
Student Elections Officer Russel Ooms
said he felt this election had run smoothly.
"There was no cheating, no attempts at cheating,'' he said, making reference to the last
election where several election infractions
Ooms said there had been some concern
over voter turnout because the election was

Ackerman's post

Senate requests student on Board

by Sheila Rose

"I would like you all to know," said ASL CC
Treasurer Bob Vinyard at Thursday night's Senate
meeting, "that Spring Arts ('73) cost us $3,614.38.''
The project, which was originally estimated at
$2,000 had been extended to a $3,000 budget.
Chairman of the event, Senator-at-Large Steve
Leppanen replied "Apparently we went over our
allotted budget.'' He gave as his "only rationale"
that "we've never done this before. I hope we've
all learned something/'
Also presented before the Senate was a letter
requesting that a student be appointed to the LCC
Board of Education.
The body voted to endorse the philosophy behind
the letter which asked, "In light of the recent resignation of Bob Ackerman from the LCC Board,
you (the Board) appoint a student from LCC to
serve in an executive capacity on the LCC Board."
Presently, the student body president holds a seat
on the Board but cannot vote.
The letter explained that "We view this as the

sole missing link between students, the community,
and the Board." The letter was then sent to Board
Chairman Robert Mention.
The Board's appointee will serve out the one
year of Ackerman's unexpired term. The position
will then be filled in an election. The opening is
from zone 3, which represents the Springfield,
McKenzie, Marcola school districts. Anyone who
is a registered voter within those districts is eligible. Letters of intent, and accompanied resumes are
due in President Eldon Schafer's office by Tuesday,
June 12.
In other action, the Senate voted not to hire security personnel to oversee the Student Senate election
ballot counting. Acting First Vice-President Russel
Ooms stated that with the Student Activities Director, the TORCH, and him3elf present, he could see
no need to hire additional people at five dollars an
hour. Form;!r OCCSA Campuc, Coordinator Douglas·
Cudahey commented that having security personnel
present would add credibility if election fraud was
charged.

being held during finals week,· and also because they planned to use only one voting
station.
In the last election, 470 persons
voted at five stations at a cost of $505.
Ooms reported that 477 students voted in
this election, at a cost to the student body
of $231.

Watts Line installed to save
money on long distance calls
In an effort to save on it's
telephone bill, LCC has subscribed to a service that allows direct
dial, long distance calls anywhere
in the state.
The new service, provided by
Pacific Northwest Bell, is called the Watts Line. According
to Bill Cox,. superintendent of college facillities, "This change over
is designed fo save us money.''
Cox cited last month's phone
bill to show the need for this service. April's bill totalled $4,250
of which $1,100 was for charges
long distance use. Cox pointed out,
that the biggest percentage of this
charge was from calls made with

B_a ckpacking, bicycling to be among summer offerings

Backpacking in the Cascades, ·bicycling tours, photography, and
clothing construction are just four of the many class subjects offered
at LCC this summer.
Because of the compact nature of some Sum'Iler Term classes
it is possible for a student to receive credit for a full sequence of
a course for one term's registration fee.
Registration for Summer Term classes will be conducted in the
cafeteria all next week.
Conducted on a first-come-first -served basis, registration will
be from 8 a.m. to noon and 1:30 to 8 p.m. Monday and Tuesday, from
8 a.m. to noon and 1 to 8 p.m. on Wednesday and Thursday; and from
8 a.m. to noon and 1 to 6:30 p.m. on Friday.

This summer, classes will be taught in two, four, six, eight anct
twelve week sessions plus one three-day session.
The two and twelve week sessions and the first four, six, and
eight week sessions are scheduled to begin June 18.
The three-day session will begin June 22 and the second four
and eight week sessions will begin July 16.
The second six week session will begin July 30, the third four
week session will begin August 13 and the one-week session will begin
August 27.

Class schedules were inserted in Friday's Eugene Register"Guard
and are also available at the Registration Office·, second floor of the
Center Building.

in the state.
"We asked the telephone company to do a survey from our long
distance records and make a recommendation,'' said Cox.
"They recommended that we use
the Watts Line, but only on a
state level, because 75 per cent
or more of our lo:ig distance calls
have been made within the state."
Since the Watts Line has been
in service Cox admits that there
has been some misuse.''The average tim1; on a long distance call,' '
he said, "was around three minutes."
According to Cox there is no
way of co:itrolling the misuse of
the line but he feels that after
the newness wears off people will
use the service for what it was
intended . In fact, Cox is anticipating that another Watts line will
be put into service this fall.
"The only way we have of checking on the misuse is by analizing
the printout,listing phone numbers
called, that the telephone company
sends us -?very three months. If
there is a need, it is a simple
matter to run this check and then
make the department that has been
making the phone calls accountable
for the usage," Cox added.

'' The President obviously has more information
than we have," loyal Americans have always said .
"Therefore, he must know what he's doing."
They said this all through the Vietnam war,
.•Phases I, II and III fund impoundments, dollar
devaluation, executive privilege, poverty war cutbacks, harrassment of the media, the bombing of
Cambodia and anything else that was burdensome
to understand.
'' The President has more information than we
have," they would say, going happily about their
own business, "therefore, we can safely leave
these complex decisions of state up to him."
At least, that's what they always said until
White House aide Fred Frisbee resigned after the
Washington Monument was found in his office safe.
While several newspapers had reported at the time
that the Washington Monument was missing - publishing "before" and "after'' photographs - Press
Secretary Ronald Zeigler said the White House
was certainly not going to comment on "this secondrate burglary.''

It's with a mixed feeling of emotion that I write this last editorial in the last ·TORCH that I

on the paper while maintaining a

Reflections

But enough - of that. This editorial is headed ''Reflections."
These are my reflections which result from two years of being actively involved in the LCC Community.
• LCC is an innovative college sometimes it doesn't seem that it
is changing fast enough but in the
end, most changes are well planned.
Students have many advantages
at LCC that would be denied them
at many other colleges. One of
these advantages is a free student government. The ASLCC Senate is totally operated and directed · by students. Although the
Senate has a staff advisor, he only
advises - he has no veto power.
Because of this free government,
students can make. the types of
decisions that they feel will benefit them most. Decisions aren't •
made for the students by an administration which thinks it knows
what students want.
Another advantage is a free .
press. Like the Senate, the TORCH
and Literary Arts magazine are •
totally operated and directed by
students.· Because of this free
press students are free to examine
issues that would never be printed
on campuses where the press is
controlled by the administration.

Dear Editor:
In Spring, when many of us are
thinking of graduation, let us not
forget those students who started
the Associate Degree of Nursing
program two years ago. They numbered about 71. Of this original
71, only 35 or so will complete
graduation at the end of this term.
Those students who left the program left for many reasons:getting
married, having babies, illness in
the family, etc.
And students are constantly tryothers left because they were
ing
to gain more input into the
disappointed w it h the program
while still others were asked to college - to be something more
than just a commodity being countleave because the program was
ecf
to justify budgets and programs.
disappointed with them.
••
As
an e~ampl~, fcite last week•s
My only question is, "What can
be done in selecting and educating Senate action requesting that the
nursing students so more than 50 vacant LCC Board of Education

Matters might have rested there had not Andy
Jackerson, a known columnist, revealed that the
President had said to his chief of staff two months
earlier, "Bob, that darned monument blocks my
view from the breakfast table."
Seventeen investigations were launched. These
proved the monument had been filched by six Cuban
refugees who were paid $13.2 million by The Committee to Keep the President Happy.
The President immediately issued a vigorous
statement. "While I have been too busy eating catsup
and cottage cheese to notice that the monument
was missing, I have now ordered my most brilliant
young aide, Mr. Frisbee, to determine whether· Mr.
Frisbee stole the monument" - a statement Mr.
Frisbee later vigorously denied.

Another orgnaization in whic

The year in review
by Steve lusby

If there was one outstanding feature of this year's athletic program it was the national competition . This was the first year that
the LCC Board of Education allowed Lane's athletes to compete
to the level of their abilities.
Coach AI Tarpenning 's cross country team met the challenge
with a national championship after a brilliant conference season.
With Dale Hammitt leading the way Lane finished the season with
four runners :- -Hanimitt, Randy Griffith, Bill Cram, and Tim Williamsin the top 30 in the country.
This spring, Tarpenning again brought his track and field team
to the nationals only to see them wilt in the face of 80 degree temperatures and 80 per cent humidity. Lane's seventh place team finish
came on the strength of second and fourth place finishe:s in the JaMin
by Steve Maryanski and Mike Daniels.
Lane's distance runners continued to show their skill with a second
place finish in the mile by Tim Williams in a lifetime best of 4:13.3.
Dale Ham mitt led a three man contingent in the three mile as he finished
fourth with Bill Cram and Randy Griffith finishing seventh and eighth
respectively.
LCC's men's basketball team narrowly missed a chance to advance
to regional competition as they finished second in the OCCAA tournament. Prior to the tournament the OCCAn. had ruled that the representative teams would be those that finished in first and second places
during the regular season on the basis of overall records.
Irv Roth, coach of the basketball team resigned at the end of the
season to concentrate on his teaching duties. His replacement, Dale
Bates, comes to Lane with strong recommendations from other
coaches throughout the state. Bates leaves Southwestern Oregon Community College in Coos Bay after six years during which his team
.compiled a fine lll-58 win-loss record ..
LCC's baseball team brought Fred Sackett's coaching career at
Lane to a close with a third place finish in the confersnce tournament.
Sackett is resigning this year to take the position of Director of
Christian Education at the First Baptist Church in Eugene.
Winning attitudes on the part of teams and coaches are the base
upon which successful athletic programs are built. If this year is
any indication, Lane is well on the way to having one of the best.

f acu.lty, students run to meet the clock
• Thirty-eight student and faculty
members participated in the Watermelon Run, held last Wednesday, May 30. Six participants received watermelons for their efforts.
The object of the run was to
estimate r unning time and then
run as close to that time as possible. (All watches were confiscated during the event.)
The winners are listed below
(in categories) followed by the secby categories (faculty, student
men, student women) and by the
number of seconds away from their
estimates.

Faculty Winner: Mike Mitchell-:12.
Men's Winners: Mike Sm~th-:02; Jim Palmquist--:15; Terry
Vanek-- :26.
Women's Winners: Betty Mitchell-- :01; Kathy Wolf-- :11.
The course for men was a little over two miles; the course
for women was a mile and a
half.

work experience program
A $25,000 federal. grant has been tentatively awarded to LCC's
Cooperative Work Experience Office (CWE) for expansion of the college transfer field experience program.
Bob Way, director of CWE, said last week that after applying
unsuccessfully for federal money three years in a row, he was notified May 23 by LCC President Eldon Schafer that the grant had been
awarded. This action presented a problem, said Way, because it left
him only a few hours to submit to the Department of Health, Education
and Welfare (HEW) a report on how the funds would be allocated.
He had requested $62,000.
Way said the money will be used to pay larger portions of the
salaries of field experience coordinators in four departments: Social
Science, Mathematics, Health and Physical Education, and Environmental Technology. This will enable faculty members of these departments to devote more of their time to supervising field experience,
which will open up opportunities for more students to enroll in CWE
programs.
,
' ' Ordinarily it is the four-year college which receives this type
of funding,' ' Way said. "Only once before has Oregon had a recipient, and that was the University of Oregon.' '
Last year CWE received a state grant of $17,445, Way said,
but that grant was earmarked for field experience in vocational
programs.
Way said that although the grant is technically still tentative,
some funds will be allocated from it forSummer Term CWE programs,
and by mid-July he expects to have total confirmation. The tentative
nature of the grant apparently· results from President Nixon's current
policy of withholding funds appropriated by Congress. Funds for this
particular program are granted under Title IV, Part D of the Higher
Education Act.

which was originally
scheduled for implementation this
year, will probably not take effect for another year, according
to Robert Marshall; LCC Registrar
and director of admissions. According to Marshall, it's the language of computers that is holding
up the operation.
He explained that existing registration data (the result of a

But the computer that will eventually take over student registration is on a Xerox program.
Efther the LCC staff or Xerox
will have to transfer the program
from IBM language to Xerox language, he said, "and it looks like
we'll have to wait for Xerox to

Developments followed daily.
The disappearance of President
Jefferson (a known Democrat) from
Mount Rushmore was.. traced to a
team from The Bureau of Weights

on the slogan: "Vote for a President who's proved he really

With their faith in Presidential
infallibility destroyed, Americans

their own decisions on complex
affairs of state. And this dem:>cracy lived happily ever after.
