An LCC student government leader was elected
to the nation's second highest student political post
at a student congress held two weeks ago.
ASLCC Second .Vice President Kenny Walker
was elected to the position of Vice President of the
National Student Association (NS.h.) at the NSA's
26th annual Congress held in Miami Beach, Florida.
Walker, who attended the Congress on LCC
student funds as LCC's only delegate, said he was
elected on a platform to form a West Coast headquarters for the NSA (the present headquarters
is in Washington D.C.) to recruit more West Coast
colleges into the organization, to work for more
representation for small colleges and for unionization of all colleges.
Walker explained that unionization would mean
bringing all students with like interests together
on a national basis. He explained that business
students would be brought together with other busi•ness students across the nation and students in
technology courses would be brought together with
other students with the same educational interests.
Walker said the Congress approved unionization
but appointed a three member task force to investigate the problems and benefits of such. The
task force is to report their findings to the NSA
national headquarters.
Walker's NSa position will force him to resign_
• from the ASLCC as he will work at the NSh national headquarters in Washington, D.C.
Walker said he will be given a salary by the
organization of $5,286 yearly, but the salary could
go higher based on the organization's income.
However, he said, his salary can go no higher
than $7,000 .a year.
Resolutions passed by the Congress included
a call for the impeachment of President Nixon,
a resolution instructing the NSA to diseminate educational materials to NSa's membership in support of the fight against multiple sclerosis, a mandate to boycott all Gallo products (Boone's Farm.
Spanada, Tyrollia Rhinegarten, Ripple and Red Mountain) because the organization felt Gallo was treating the United Farm Workers Union unfairly, and
a resolution calling for amnesty of all military re.-
sisters and deserters.
According to Walker, 400 to 500 delegates attended the Congres~.
At the Aug. 2 Senate meeting the expense 01
Walker's trip was snared in controversial debate.
Walker told the TORCH last week that of the $996
funded for the conference $316 was for the roundtrip flight, $150 on Congress representation, $100
for NSA dues, $168 for housing, $40 for a Junior
College and Thirld World pre-conference, and tha
remainder -- $192 -- on food, laundry, bus and
taxi expenses.
Kenny Walker
Board recruits Mass Comm Department chairman
The LCC Board of Education
has hired a IO-year Army Veteran
who worked in mass communications while in the military to serve
as the chairman of LCC's Mass
Communications Department.
Thirty-five year old John Elliott III was selected from 127
.applicants. The process to find a
new chairperson began early last
Spring Term after Virginia DeChaine announced she was resigning the chairmanship position to
return to teaching. Ms. DeChaine
had chaired the department for
over five years.
Elliott has a bachelors degree
in speech, a masters in the combined areas of radio, television,
and film, and is presently working towards his doctorate in speech
at the University of Oregon.
'Unique department''
Although only on the job for
four working days, Elliott said he
finds LCC's Mass Communica-·
tions Department unique because
it is one of the few mass communications departments that offers radio, television, photography, journalism and speech.
Elliott said he applied for the
LCC position because the department has so many areas of instruction _:_ areas in which he
has academic training and interest and because he '' needed a
job."
He said it is still too early
to decide if he is going to try
to make any changes in the department because students haven't
returned to the school as of yet.
He said he hopes to meet with
the staff and with as many students taking mass communications
classes as possible, to see what
they like or dislike about the dedepartment's present structure.
While in. the Army the former
major helped train South Vietnamese in broadcasting and camera work "so they can take over
and have a broadcasting system
of their own.''
Elliott decided to leave the Army
after 10 years because he wanted whose majors are in other fields April 3 editorial, condemned the

TORCH prepares for ninth year
with three regular columnists.
Jack Anderson, Washington Post columnist, Art Hoppe, columnist
for the San Francisco Chronicle, current campus news, news from
other colleges throughout the state and country, and a weekly
film review are just some of the regularly scheduled features for
this year's LCC student newspaper, the TORCH, which begins it's
ninth year of publication.
Jack Anderson's Weekly Special, noted as the watchdog of the
government, has won Anderson the Pulitzer Prize for reporting.
Art Hoppe, who writes a column called The Innocent Bystander,
is noted across the country for his witty, sometimes sarcastic
commentary on America today.
Bill Tufts, LCC student, will write a regular review column
on current films.
But, most of the eight to 16 pages of the TORCH will contain
current news stories about LCC events and people.
The TORCH, on the newstands by I p.m. every Tuesday, will
also be the newspaper to read for information on campuses throughout the state and the country.
To get where it is now the TORCH has undergone manv chane:es
and . many staffs. The first TORCH was published Nov. I, 1965 as an
eight page monthly. The lead story of the first paper was about then__
Oregon Governor Mark Hatfield presenting a charter to LCC. That
edition also contained a story about the new campus that was to be
built on 30th Avenue (LCC •was located in downtown Eugene until
1968.) The first issue was not named TORCH, but "Name the Newspaper.'' Some of the suggested names for the paper were Lane Life,
Lane Community Broadcaster and College Caper. The second issue
was named TORCH but with no •explanation.
In the Fall Term of 1966 the paper became a four page weekly
and in Winter Term of the same year changed its size from tabloid
(the present size of the TORCH) to standard (the size of the Eugene
Register-Guard). At that time the paper was written on campus but
the stories and headlines had to be set, the photos screened, and
the paper pasted up at the Springfield News because the TORCH
had no equipment of its own.
• At the end of Fall Term, 1967, the paper was again -reduced to a

Dear Editor:
I am insulted that anyone would
choose to threaten the ASLCC
Senate with "The Board (of Education) will cut your funding if
you don't support athletics." I
am further insulted that these
threats seem to come, not from
the Board, but from individuals
from within the Senate. I thereby question the validity of these
threats.
A.lthough I am not at this time
advocating the elimination of athletic funding. I am appalled by the
ability of the : Senate to be manipulated by any threats.
In May, 1973, Jay Jones (Senate
advisor) spoke to our body about
the consequences of allowing individuals to threaten this body
(back when petitions for new elections were prevalent). He advised
us that in these cases if we give
in to threats, those who threaten become the powerful ones; the
elected leaders become the puppets. We, the ASLCC, should not
fear the administration, nor the
Board, but stand behind our recommendations and decisions.
As elected officers, we represent the students. When the students come back to campus in the
fall, they are going to wonder,
"Whatever happened to students'
rights?' Many will look to this
body for their answer.
What will the answer be?
Barry Hood
Dear Editor:
I think the ASLCC Budget Com-
Letter s
mittee's recommendation to wunhold funds to the LCC Athletic
Department until an election can
be held to see if they are going
to fund the department at all is the
stupidist thing I have come across
in my seven terms at LCC and
that covers a lot of stupid things.
The committee made this move
because they felt that only a few
students were utilizing the Athletic Department. Garbage! The
varsity athletes made up one of
the largest groups on campus with
approximately 180 students. If this
many students can't receive support what the hell is the Senate
going to do for the smaller groups
and the individual student?
Even if athletics is cut from
the budget the students wouldn't
be getting their money back. Red
Fox would try to have it put in the
general fund and use it to take off
to Ka-Ne-Ta resort again so the
Senate can have their papers updated.
I would also like to bring up the
point that the date set for the election is unfair. The Oct. 15 & 16
dates for elections are too soon
after school starts for the athletes
to organize to fight the cut the
Budget Committee has recommended during the summer when
most athletes are off campus and
the date also forces them to start
programs that may be cut shortlv
after the season starts. If th~
Senate wants t o cut athletics they
could have tried this spring when
the athletes were here .and when
they would have been able to plan
for this fall with some knowledge
about the funding of their sports
Grade reports are normally mailed by Thursday following the end of
the term.
SCHEDULE CHANGES - ADDS & DROPS
Students may change their schedule after the first day of the term.
All changes must be processed throµgh the Admissions Office and
Business Office of the college. After the first week of the term consent
of the instructor is required to add classes (instructor signature
is required on the Add-Drop Form). Students may drop courses through
the seventh week of the term. There is no record on .the transcript
of the student's attempt at the course prior to the seventh week.
After the seventh week a "W'' may be assigned by mutual agreement
of the student and the instructor. In this case, a "W'' will appear on the
transcript.
WITHDRAWaL FROM COLLEGE
A student who wishes to discontinue his college attendance must complete official withdrawal procedures through the Student Records
Office. Any tuition refunds are based on the date of official withdrawal.
OFFICE HOURS
The Admission Office and Student Records Office will be closed Sep(.Continued on page 11)

I like Talker Walker; his likeable, personable, concerned, interested, exciting style keeps an
air around him of enjoying Iife
and hopefully, helping everyone he
comes in contact with; he's helped
me.
I think Lane Community College
should be proud of Kenny Walker.
I know Kenny Walker is proud
of Lane Community College. LCC
provides an atmosphere very conducive to learning and expressjng
what you have learned. Kenny is
an outstanding example.
He recently asked the Executive
Cabinet to send him to NSC Convention to represent Lane; he was
already a voted official of that
organization; he expressed that
Lane should be represented with
more persons because Lane's innovative style and progressive
becoming known
traits are
throughout the -US . The Cabinet
unanimously decided to send him,
but no others, as it would be too
costly.
Then amidst much confusion as
to legality of spending summer
funds, a lot of controversy appeared, but Kenny was sent and
pursued what he felt was right.
He went to the convention and
laid it on the line - he was

Jane Fonda to v1s1t
expands services
Political activist Jane Fonda, Tom Hayden of the Chicago t>even,
and Jean-Pierre Debris, a Frenchman held prisoner for two years
in a South Vietnamese jail, will speak on Thursday, September 20.
The speech is scheduled for 7:30 p.m. at the Lane County Fairgrounds
Auditorium located at 13th and Monroe in Eugene.
Their talk, where a one dollar admission will be charged, is to
be part of their Indochina Peace Campaign (IPC) tour in which they
plan to expose "the continuing crisis in Indochina,'' according to an
IPC news release. During their tour they plan to travel to 25 cities
throughout the US "trying to mobilize public concern for the plight
of the 20_,000 political prisoners of the US supported Saigon regime,' '
the release said.
Ms. Fonda and Hayden will discuss the opportunity for action to
end continuing American involvement in Indochina presented by the
Watergate crisis. They will also focus on the current situation in
Cambodia.
.
Ms. Fonda worked on the Winter Soldier Investigation, a war
crimes hearing by Vietnam veterans in Detroit in 1971; the FTA
show which toured US military bases the same year; and is an h.cademy
Award winning actress. Hayden, 33, is a long-time anti-war activist,
teacher and author of several books, including two on the war. The
couple is married and resides in Santa Monica, California.
Debris, 28, taught French in South Vietnam from 1968 to 1970.
Shocked by the conditions he observed, he passed out leaflets asking
for peace and was arrested in Saigon in July 1970. He spent two years
in Chi Hoa prison in Saigon, and with a second Frenchman, Andre
Menras, was the focus of a campaign in France which finally freed
him in the winter of 1972, the news release said.
Hayden will also speak and show slides and a film at the University
of Oregon (180 Prince- Lucien Campbell Hall) from 1 to 3 p.m. the same
afternoon.
• According to the release the IPC is a nation wide organization
concentrating on creating a climate of opinion to pressure Congress
for complete implementation of the 1973 .Paris Peace hgreement,
including a cutoff of aid to General Thieu and any other regimes
threatening the further involvement of the US in Indochina. The tour
is
being launched Sept. 16, the beginning of a week of international concern about Saigon's prisoners, when protests will occur
in many American cities and around the world.
More than 500 video and 800
audio programs are available for
individual and classroom use
through LCC's Information Retrieval System (IRS).
During the last school year only
selected classrooms were equipped with outlets for the IRS programs. This year virtually all
of the classrooms on campus have
been equipped to handle the video
and audio pickup.
While the most obvious application for the system would be
for use by the instructors in place
of repetitive lectures, other uses
have been designed into the system.
Students can use the system to
brush up on courses in which
they are having trouble. Advanced
subjects can also be requested
for the student who needs more
advanced material.
While only instructors are allowed to reque~t tapes to be made
for classroom use, students that
have useful ideas can have their
instructor forward that idea to the
IRS where it will be acted upon
and subsequently become part of
the program.
Catalogues listing the programs
and the tapes are placed in each
area where outlets for the system are available. New catalogues
are in the process of being compiled.
Questions on operation and contents of the IRS should be directed to Dee Austin . ext. 200, at
the Information Retrieval System
located on the fourth floor of the
Center Bldg.
Study Skills Center
provides learning aids
Students needing assistance with
spelling, reading, math, English
or other languages can find their
needs met in the LCC Study Skills
Center. The Center, located on the
fourth floor of the Center building,
offers assistance in the form of
books, tapes and machines. The
tapes, books and tape players may
be checked out to use overnight.
The Center provides individualized, independent and group programs to help students learn faster. English and tutorial assistance
are offered to foreign students.

had been no money allocated for this convention
in the budget, but the money was spent anyway.
She also cited Red Fox's veto of her appointees
to
the Finance Committee and a new one has
not yet been set up. She explained that the '' committee should be established because they are
there to approve or disapprove money expenditures. It says in the ASLCC documents that there
must be one.' '
Doris Koumoungis, who was elected during the
last Spring student election to serve as 1973-74
business manager, handed in her resignation to Red
Fox on August 21. She stated that her resignation
was "due to political conflict within the ASLCC
Senate."
Stone explained that his responsibilities as business manager are to "serve the students ... that's
what student government is all about." Stone expressed concern about the lack of student participation in the Senate, commenting that he would
"like to see more students unafraid to come to
us (the Senate). We need to getawayfrom ourselves,
more into serving students needs."
Ms. Koumoungis explained her position as "standing on a rock alone, and everybody is doing things
that have been traditionally done in the past and
going against their documents.' ' She continued, saying, "What is the purpose of this student government? I don't think it's to serve students, when
very few are benefitting from it, excluding health
services . . . I wish that a certain percentage of
the students would seriously look at their student

for benefits
GI Bill training is still available for some veterans who were
discharged from military service
as much as 12 years ago, but not
for long.
The Veterans Administration
said yesterday that Post-Korean
veterans - those who were discharged between January 31,1955,
and June, 1966--have two more
years to talce flight training, farm
or on-the-job training under the
GI Bill. But their eligibility for
other types of schools and colleges expires May 31, 1974.
In spite of the array of dates,
the formula for computing an individual's eligibility is fairlysimple, according to Administrator
of Veterans Affairs Donald E.
Johnson. The law gives each veteran eight years to use his GI
Bill eligibility, and for most, this
means until eight years after discharge. But the Post-Korean group
had no GI Bill eligibility until
June I, 1966, when the current GI
Bill became effective. Thus, they
have until eight years after the
date of the law. The following
vear (1967). other forms of training were added to the GI Bill,
so the eight years of eligibility
for these benefits starts from the
date of the amendment - August 31, 1967.

But according to Peggy Jordan, a receptionist at
the Eugene Office of Rental Housing Directory, that
office receives all of its listings directly from landlords.
Ms. Jordan said her agency never takes ads from newspapers but will run an ad for a house if the landlord
requests. The manager of Rental Housing Directory was
.,ot available for comment.
OSPIRG's latest ta~get:
The housing referral agencies
People who pay $10 to $20 to re_ntal housing refer:al
agencies for a listing of rental housmg may not be gettmg
their money's worth, according to the Oregon Student
public Interest Research Group (Cl>PIRG).
In a 37 page report released yesterday the group
charged that the agencies "consistently deceive the
customer' by advertising houses as available that
have already been rented, and by "baiting" prospective
customers over the telephone with false promises that
specific advertised houses are still for rent.
Rental housing referral agencies maintain lists of
rental housing and allow subscribers access to the lists
for a fee of $10 to $20. There are three such agencies
in Oregon - Homelocators, Rental Housing Directory,
and Homehunters. Rental Housing Directory operates,,
in Eugene, Portland and Salem, Homelocators and Homehunters operate in Portland.
The OOPIRG report, authored by University of Oregon
law student and OOPIRG summer intern, Ellen Nelson,
accused all three agencies of violating state consumer
protection laws. At a news conference Monday, Nelson
called on the Attorney General to seek a contempt
order and a $25,000 fine against Homelocators for·
violating the terms of an Assurance of Voluntary Compliance obtained in April by the Lane County District
Attorney. Ms. Nelson asked that the other two agencies
be made to sign Assurances of Voluntary Compliance.
The report went on to assert that agency salespeople nearly always tell prospective customers the •
advertised houses that are still for rent. Only after
the customers pay the fee do they find out the houses
have been rented.
The practice of misrepresenting the availability
of advertised housing was called a ''blatant bait and
switch routine' by OSPIRG attorney Neil Robblee,
who supervised the investigation.
The report stated that "the service of the agencies,
once they get the fee from the customer, is a disgrace." according to the report, subscribing customers
who call the agencies for information are frequently
put on "hold' ' for over 15 minutes before being servedo
Ms. Jordan said it was impossible for the Eugene
office of Rental Housing Directory to put someone
on hold "because our telephones don't even have hold
buttons.'' She explained that the office has two telephones and two receptionists. She added, however,
that sometimes people would be asked to wait while
receptionist tried to find information but claimed
it was never as long as 15 minutes.
a
The report also claimed the agencies' listings are
not kept up to date and frequently contain inaccurate
information about the listed rental housing.
The report also stated that agencies sometimes
list houses without the landlord's prior knowledge or
consent, and do not always instruct the landlord to contact the agency when the house has been rented. The
report stated that the agencies will continue to list
a house as available even when the landlord cannot be
reached to confirm whether it has been rented.
The OOPIRG report was the result of 108 investi-·
gative checks of the three agencies carried out over
a period of three months this summer by OOPIRG,
in cooperation with the Consumer Protection Division
of the Department of Justice.
Ms. Jordan said her office verifies their listings
every two days by telephoning the landlords. She admitted, however, that if the office was unable to contact
the landlord, and if they did not receive the information
that the listing had been rented, they would continue
to carry it in their referral books.
According to the report, the investigations showed
that most of the houses advertised in the classified
section of newspapers by the agencies had been taken
from previous classified ads run by landlords and_were
already rented by the time they appeared again in the
newspaper under the name of the agency.
OOPIRG proposed a new state law which the report
chimed would '' strictly regulate' the practices of rental
housing referral agencies. The proposed law would limit
the fee charged the customer before he found suitable
housing to five dollars. The proposal would also require
the agencies to be operated by licensed real estate

brokers, and would impose penalties against the broker
and the agencies for specified advertising and listing
practices.
Ms. Jordan said the owner of Rental Housing Direct:.
ory, who has his office in Boise, Idaho, is a licensed
r_
eal estate broker but the local manager is not.
Ms. Nelson advised prospective tenants to use the
classified ad section of newspapers instead of the agencies
when seeking rental housing. "Since rent .referral
2.gencies obtain most of their house listings from the
newspapers anyway, people looking for rental housing
can obtain the same service days sooner by spending
10 cents instead of $20,'' Nelson said.
Med Assistant classes

Escalating food costs LCC clubs
effect cafeteria rates
The cost of meat, ac- ~veryone knows, is rising. This rise will
affect the prices studerus Nill have to pay this year in LCC's cafeteriao "We have to be able to pay wages and food costs," explained
Food Services Director Merlin Ames, "so we have to pass that increase in cost on to the students."
Ames termed prices as being "drastically'· up, and"' gave examples of what the cafeteria is facing. He said there is a 30 per cent
increase on beef. Poultry (Fryers) last vear ranged from 42 to 52
cents
a
pound.
This year, the cafeteria will be paying 71
cents a pound. Last year the caf- ~-,
eteria paid $1.15 for ham and now
they will be paying $1.80. Student portions will be 10 cents
more.
-
Ames stressed that the increase
is only because of the increased
prices the cafeteria is paying and
not to make a profit for the cafeteria. "We will always maintain ,
our policy of not accumulating any
profit." According to Ames, the 1
cafeteria, "keeps a delicate balance between not going into debt and
not making any profit." He admitted, "That's extremely hard to do."
Food service in the cafeteria will be under the same managership as in the past, but there will be a change in the direction of
the instructional area of the cafeteria this year. It will be run by Ms.
Gladys Belden of the Home Economics Department.
The Cafeteria is located on the first floor of the Center Bldg.

It's a great feeling
***
LCC's wrestling team, coached
by Bob Creed, will hold a meeting at 3 p.m. on Sept. 24, for all
persons interested in joining the
Titan grapplers.
The meeting,
which will be held in the weight
room will give the coach an idea
of the strength of this years team.
According to Creed, the first
match for the Titans should take
place sometime in November. Currently no competition has been
scheduled at this time except for
league matches starting in Jan.
Creed also commented that this
year's team should have five or
six returning members from last
year's team.
by Steve Busby
Ah! The joys of a national champion.
Opponents point for you, recruiting becomes easier, indeed
athletes ask to compete for you. Al Tarpenning, coach of the track
team is enjoying that feeling.
Tarpenning has been actively pursuing some of the finest athletes
in the state over the past summer. The result of this work is possibly
the finest group of freshmen and transfers coming to Lane the school
has ever seen.
Depth in the sprints has always been a weak point for Lane.
Without it the Titans were unable to compete with such powers as
Essex Junior College of New Jersey, a school with a sprint team that
would have made many colleges feel proud.
Tarpenning has done something about that problem. Three fine
sprinters have said that they are coming to Lane with the possibility of
getting another one before the start of school; Dale Warren of Grant
won the state 100 yard dash and was the runnerup in the 220 yard
dash, Vincent Woods was a finalist in the state 100, Jerry Zybach
had a fine junior year in the sprints and has great potential, and what
might be the greatest recruiting triumph at Lane, Rick Eatmon,
formerly of Adams in Portland may bring his 9.4 in the 100 and
21.1 in the 220 to Lane from arn.
In the middle distances Lane has always been a dominating force.
This year figures to be more of the same.
Jay Frentress of North Eugene, by way of Linfield, brings a
4:09 mile time to the team; Mike Heistuman of North Eugene and
John Wallace of South Eugene are both in the 1:56 half mile range;
!:Ind Tim Spurgeon of North Eugene, Rod Cooper, Dan Aunspaugh
have all turned in very fine 4:20 miles.
The hurdles has consistently been one of the sore spots on LCC 's
track teams. The top two hurdlers in Lane's history graduated last
year but Tarpenning feels that he has help for that area in Bruce
Clark of Grants Pass. Clark was ranked among the top prep hurdlers
in the state throughout last year.
•
The field events will have better depth than they have had in a
number of years. Tom Burrows of Sheldon had the top triple jump
mark in the state last year; Jim Butterfield consistently jumped in
the 22 and 23 foot range; and Kelly Graham and Bruce Jones were the
numbers one and two ranked AAA high jumpers in the state. Graham
has a best of 6 feet 8 inches while Jones has gone 6 feet 7 inches.
The weight events received a shot in the arm when Bruce Silver,
• a 200 foot plus javelin thrower, and Steve Carter, one of the best
discus and shot performers in the state, announced that they were
coming to Lane.
Next year will be the first year that the decathalon will be one
of the regularly scheduled events in the regional and national championships. Kevin Tarpenning, son of coach Tarpenning, will give Lane

the team should again be comnetitive.
If the season, which will start

a strong performer in this event. Tarpenning was a fine pole vaulter
at Sheldon along with throwing the javelin close to 200 feet.
Combine these performers with the talent coming back; Tim
Williams (4:11 in the mile), Chris Vigeland (4:14 in th~ mile), Dan
Sprauer (1:54 in the half mile), Dan Seymour (48.5 in the 440), Jeff
Hampson (23 foot plus long jumper), Mike Daniels and Dennis Wicks
(220 foot plus javelin throwers), and you have one of the strongest
community college track teams in the country. Many small college
coaches would breath easier if they were able to field a team of this
caliber.
According to Tarpenning, this is a "rebuilding year.'' The rest
of the conference must be hoping that we never get fully recovered.

Bates welcomes "anyone interested in coming out for basketball to stop by my office and fill
out an information card and get

Adult Ed offers
AdditiOn s increase library usability
large variety of
co_urses for study
With courses that run the gamut
from "Aquarian Numerology" to
"Business English,' the Division
of Community £ducation begins it's
fall schedule of Adult Education
Classes during the week of September 23.
Enrollment in Adult Education
classes is open to anyone over the
age of 18 and registration is completed at the first meeting of each
course. Tuition for most courses
is $14 and if you're over 65 years
old that fee • is reduced to $6.
A sampling of the courses shows
diversity enough to fit nearly anyones interests.
The general interest category
offers a wide range of instruction
such as:
• Back Country Methods, designed to familiarize men and women with the skills and knowledge
to cope with the outdoors.
• Film Techniques, which will
help individuals interested in film
production.
• Pocket Billiards for Women,
for beginners who wish to learn
the basic skills of pool.
• Physical Fitness for A.dults,
Self Defense, and both beginning
and advanced Yoga for the physically minded.
h.nd much more. The Adult Education schedule offers a whole
range of courses ih areas such as
Shop and Technical skills, Foreign Languages, Business, High
School Completion, Home Economics, and Arts and Crafts.
Interested adults can call the
Adult Education Office, at LCC
or consult the Fall Term schedule
of classes.
Hoth new and returning students
will find the going a little easier
at term paper time with the addition of new services and research
items to LCC's library.
Accordin!! to head Librarian Del
Matheson, the library staff has
spent the summer increasing the
research capabilities of the facilty with:
• The addition of about 15,000
volumes to the library's collection of books.
• The complete World Almanac,
dating from 1868 to today, stored
on micro film. From these, students can quote accurately for any
of those years.
• A complete set of Oregon state
"Blue books'', with governmental
and political details from all 50
states.
• Addition of a new clipping service, "Editorials on File' ' , which
features editorial oninion from almost 150 different newspapers.
A new card catalog system that
includes both book and non-book
materials. This means that locations of items such as records
and tapes may now be found in
the card catalog.
• The addition of an Optiscope
to library facilities. The Optiscope
is a device shich magnifies readingmatter five times to aid the
visually handicapped.
• Finally, the relocation of cas-
sette tape learning aids circulation from the study skills center
to the library. This service includes the duping of some eight to
ten-thousand instructional tapes
per year as well as storage and
management of 500 tape players.
Returning students will also notice that the library has been rearranged to make materials easier to find.
New students using the library
--~
may have their first contact with
the book protection system installed last winter at LCC. The system prevents persons with books
that are not checked-out from leaving the library by locking the exit
turnstile. Matheson says that the
system has, in effect, paid back
60 per cent of its purchase price
already, by reducing book losses
almost to zero.
