body funding

freezes fund$

Jay Jones, LCC student activities adviser, acting on a request
from Dean of Student Jack Carter,
announced at Thursday's Senate
meeting that he was freezing all
remaining, undispursed ASLCC
funds.
Jones, reading from Carter's
memorandum, explained that Carter was requesting Jones "not
(to) sign any requisitions until the
issues surrounding the (ilSLCC)
documents . . . are resolved."
Carter in his memorandum reasoned, "In light of the many conflicts surrounding Student Government and its function at this
time, it is my position that all
requests for expenditures of
ASL CC funds be stopped until some
form of order is restored.'
After the meeting, David Simmons, ASLCC senator-at-large,
responded to Jones' freezing of
the funds by claiming that Jones
could have 9ffered a clearer picture of what he meant by misspent money.
He ventured, "It sounds like the
administration ts reacting to the
chaos created by Red Fox by
blaming the Senate."
While Dean Carter feels there
is disorder, on the contrary I
feel that the students and the administration are more collectively together now than ever before. We didn't make up the rules
to get rid of Red Fox; we used
the existing ones," he claimed.
Roger Leasure, acting ASLCC
first vice-preside9t, charged that
Jones is trying to protect Red
Fox. ''Red Fox is a perfect administration man. He's a middle(Continue·d on back page)

Claims Senate ineffective

Group petitions for impeaChment
"Impeach the Senate!"
That•s the answer to solving
the continuing problems in student
government at LCC, according to
a group of students at LCC who
feel that a new form of government is needed, and that the Stu-·
dent Senate as· it is now should
be abolished.

Red fox forced to resign by senate

David Red Fox was forced to resign as the ASLCC President
Wednesday as a result of a special Student Senate meeting called
by First Vice President Barry Hood at the request of two-thirds
of the Senate.
The only member absent from the meeting, which lasted about
seven minutes, was Red Fox himself. Red Fox later said he hadn't
been there because "they didn't have the two-thirds majority required (by the student government's by-laws) to call a special meetRed Fox is fighting the action t'lrough legal means. (See
ing."
story, page 1)
There were three roll-call votes during the meeting, and each
split the Senate the same way.
The first was to accept the agenda for the meeting (to deal solely with the issue of the resignation of Red Fox), the second was to
stop debate on the issue, and the last was for the resignation itself.
Roger Leasure, 2nd VP, Dan Stone, treasurer, Robin Burns,
Publicity Director, senators-at-large Dave Simmons and Ginny hllbaugh, and departmental senators Norman Normile, Lloyd -Ewing,
and Rick Matthews voted to accept the agenda, curtail debate, and
force the resignation, while senators-at-large Dei Smith, Terry
La Roche , and SAC Director Jerry Edgmon voted no on all three
roll-calls.
The final vote-- to force Red Fox's resignation--brought out
some question of the propriety of Hood's voting on the issue. The
parliamentarian, Rex Britt, - said that Hood had no responsibility
to vote, though Dave Simmons felt Hood's vote was needed for the
two-thirds required by ASLCC documents to force resignation.

Elections and a new budget proposal shared the spot light at
Thursday's ASLCC Senate meeting
with the LCC Administration's
move to freeze b.SI.J_:;C funds. (see
story page l).
The results from the Oct. 29
and 30 ASLCC elections were ratified as reported to the Senate
by the aSLCC Board of Tellers.
Barry Hood, acting ASLCC President, then swore in Craig Geary
new Senator-at-Large and
as
John Richard, Sally Ooms, Norman Normile, Carlos Manrriques,
Russ Ooms, Richard Weber, DavDiana Myers and
id Edgmon,
Lloyd Ewing as departmental senators.
Ole Hoskinson, an LCC student, questioned, through a point
of clarification, whether the elections had been legally held: He
noted that the ASLCC Bylaws take
precedence over guidelines, and
that Article 6, Section 2.0 of the
ASLCC Bylaws states: "Petitions
will be filed one week prior to the
Senate meeting, which will be held
two (2) weeks prior to the elections. All positions, names of candidates and ballot measures must
be posted two (2) weeks prior to
the elections."
Rick Matthews, aSLCC senator,
asked if the ballot measures had
been posted at the required time.
David Williams, election commission member, said that they did
not have to be posted but that
they had been publicized. The item
was then dropped.
Jay Jones, LCC student activities adviser, read a memo he had
received from Jack Carter, LCC
dean of students. The memo suggested that all aSLCC funds be
frozen by the college Administration until Student Senate problems,
which have been caused in part
by the lack of clear ASLCC documents are up-dated. Jones further requested that copies of all
ASLCC documents be filed and
ll\3.intained in his office and in
Carter's. (see separate story, this
The senate then recessed the
regular meeting and called a Budget Committee meeting to order.
The first reading of a newlyrevised budget was accepted with
the several changes centering around the funding of campus clubs.
The budget line-item for campus
<3lubs was changed from a total
amount of $1000 to a $8,750 total. Several clubs have already
request.ed budgets that almost equal the $8,750 total. Several senators asked about a possible guideline to fix a ceiling amount for
clubs in order that all clubs have
an equal chance for ASLCC support. The matter was then tabled
(Continued on back page)

Dei Smith, senator-at-large and
head of the group, feels that the
Senate has not been effective in
serving students needs, and that
students need a government they
can be more involved in.
"Our purpose is not to impeach
th e Senate, only to elect a new
~enate," said Ms. Smith. "We
want a new form of government."
Impeachment petitions have been
circulated am_ong students, and
approximately 300 signatures have
been received, according to Ms.
Smith.
The petitions state: "We the undersigned demand the recall of all
ASLCC Senate Members as follows: President, First Vice-President, Second Vice President, Publicity Director and both Departmental and Senators- at Large.
These vacated positions shall be
under the supervision of the Academic Council for a special election giving the council approval
to establish a new form of government whi:::h would better serve
the social needs and interest of
the students at LCC."
Five people in the Senate, besides Ms. Smith~ have signed the
petition. They are : Rick Matthews, senator-at-large; Davia
Red Fox, ASLCC President; Dan
Stone, Business Manager; Jame
Blakely, newly elected senator; and
Rex Britt, ASLCC Parliamenta-

rian.
"We are suggesting that the
students take control now,'' stated
'' The students by
Ms. Smith.
"We
this petition are saying,
don't like it (the Senate), we want
a special election and we want
to impeach it."
A special election would be held,
said Ms. Smith, to decide what
kind of government students want.
"Our alternative," she explained,
"is to hold public meetings where
students could come with new proposals to submit to the Academic
Council. The Academic Council
is an advisory council which, as
stated in the ASLCC StudentHandbook, " gives attention to individual student actions. "There
are two student positions on the
Council. The Council would review these proposals and select
anywhere between three to five
proposals that would go on a ballot and be voted on by students."
Ms. Smith added that students
ha v e submitted proposals for a
new government already.
Ms. Smith, Britt, and Red Fox,
have been the chief workers on
the senate impeachment proposal.
They reported that they have written for and received letters from
colleges who have had problems
with student government similar
to LCC.

disclose any mention of such action· having taken
place. When questioned about this discrepancy, Hood
replied that the secretary had made a mistake in
not recording the alleged action.
Jones also said," . . . it is clearly evidenced
that the Senate is unable to operate without some
form of framework developed by the Administration
or the Board (of Education). This framework must
be developed for two principle reasons," including
" Student body fees are mandatory and must be

not being handled responsibly.
The Senate has spent thousands of dollars of
student money without a final budget--As examples
it allocated $1,000 last July for a documentsworkshop that was held at Kah-Nee-Ta Vacation
Resort in Warm Springs, Oregon: It spent $2,000
on former Second Vice President Kenny Walker
to send him to Miami Beach for the National
Student Association (NSA) convention. And it recently
proposed to allocate $8,750 for four campus clubs.
We feel that a government that is in a constant
state of upheaval and chaos is worthless to the
students--it is benefitting no one.

While the US Government failed to crush a people whose ideology differed greatly with it's own, it did manage to get out of Vietnam under the illusion of an "honorable peace." The Vietnamization
Program which allows hsians to kill asians has, with much help
and "advice'' been implemented.
The National Liberation Front and the North Vietnamese have
released their American POW's as specified in the 1973 Paris Peace
Agreement. Under much world pressure the Saigon government released 825 of it's 4,331 prisoners. Among them were 12 children
under the age of 7 and 30 women prisoners who were in such bad
health that they fell unconscious at Loe Ninh airport and were hospitalized.
There are now between two and three million political prisoners being held by the Thieu regime throughout South Vietnam. Peace
will never come to the people of South Vietnam as long as this condition exists. Therefore Thieu must release his prisoners in accordance
with the Paris Peace Agreement.
How are the hmerican people still involved, one might ask. The
computers that are used to keep track of the prisoners as well as
everyone in South Vietnam are manufactured in EI Segundo, California by Computer Science Corp.; the handcuffs that are used to bind
the prisoners in detention as well as during the everyday occurances
of torture, reminiscent of the Nazis, are made and supplied by Smith
and Wesson Co.; the tiger cages are still being manufactured by a

It is extremely easy to critize ..:_ anyone can do
it. However, what .is more difficult, and what sets
constructive criticism aside frpm mere bitching
is offering solutions. We have critfzed the ASLCC
student government in the above editorial - now
we offer our solutions.
For too long student leaders at this and most
other schools, have played the government game ·a holdover from high school student councils which
were usually instigated by civics classes for the
education of students.
What college students need in this day of increased student involvment is not a government
but a· union that will represent them on student
rights issues in.stead of bickering on how to spend
money.
What we are suggesting is perhaps the most
sweeping reform this campus has ever seen.
First, we suggest the abolishment of both the
ASLCC Senate and the Executive Cabinet. In its
• place we suggest the formation of an elected committee to disburse funds ONLY as they are budgeted and a totally separate student union consisting of four officers and all students.
First, it would be necessary to elect by student
vote a budget commtttee, the fees dispersing committee, and the four -union officers. (No person wquld
be able to serve on more than one committee.)
Then, the budget committee would formulate a new
budget that would be extremely detailed as to how
the money was to be spent. In other words, .if money
wasn't budgeted for a workshop on March 13, no
funds could be expended at a later date for a
workshop on M~.rch 13. Every penny would have to
be accounted for (in both dollars and percentages
in case the expected revenue was higher/lower
than expected) and there would be no general or
contingency funds from which fee committee members could draw. Nor could there be a transfer
of line items.
After the budget committee established what they
felt was a workable budget they would then meet
with the four union officers and the fees committee
for final alterations, open hearings, and a vote.
Once the budget was approved by the three bodies
the budget committee would be abolished and the
dispersement of funds as outlined in the budget,
would be overseen by the fees committee.
From this point the fees C;)mmittee and the union
would be separate entities; in fact, it would be
best if they weren't even housed together.
Union meetings would be held every other week .
•and every student wifh a current student body card
would have one vote should he/she wish to attend
the union meeting.
In most organizations allowing such a potentially
large number of people to vote would lead to a
breakdown of the process. However, in the case of
•the student union the ·organization wottld be voting
on matters of whether to support a sfodent in his/
her bid to persuade the administration to develop
. a new class, to get -a student reinstated to a class,

issues such as who gets to attend the next convention or where its going to be held.
gets to attend the next convention or where its
going to be held.
The right s and benefits for students such a
union could acheive is unlimited.
Had the student body of LCC not been encurn bered by the ineffectual type of representative body
it no w employs the second year welding students
probably would not have been hassled with the illegal
welding program changes of last year, or students
probably would not have had a tuition hike sprung
on them during a vacation period, or maybe the
firing of science instructor Ben Kirk would have
had a different outcome, or maybe the status of
part-time instructors this year would be different.
Although the LCC Boarc;l of Education can not
legally give a vote to any student unless he/ she
is properly elected by the LCC District voters,
the Board could allow an ex-officio memb9r to
sit with that body - a member that would have all
rights of a Board member except voting.
Another area in which the union could take an
active interest is staff salaries. A hike in salaries
normally costs the student and his/her parents in
the form of increased tuition and property tax.
For this reason students should be able to demand
that instructors be of the quality that substantiate
their pay. And if they are, a student union could
have tremendous power in aiding the staff fn their
salary negotiations with the Board.
At the National Student Association convention
last year, Jacob Samit, director of field services
for the american Federation of Teachers, made
the statement that all power is in the hands of
students. Samit explained that a student can't be
fired for displeasing the administration, and~ of
course. without students there is no need for an
administration or college.
Why would this type of union organization work
better than our present form of student representation? First, the body wouldn't be hampered by the
petty power plays that characterize this and past
student governments. Everyone would have an equal
vote and an equal say.
But, more importantly, this type of organization
would work because • they could spend their time
dealing with student problems and rights rather
than the expediture of student funds. After the budget was approved all financial bickering would
cease and the work that LCC's student government
has been promising for years could finally begin.
But such sweeping changes will not be easy to
achieve. They will probably be met with strong
resistance from many (but not all) of LCC 1 s present student government officers 'who would rather
have power and the ability to expend student funds
than to work for student rights and needs. Such
reforms would probably also be opposed by many
LCC administrators who would much rather see
LCC continue with. its present ineffective govern(Continued on back page)·

Review: 'Clones'

Science fiction
fanasty likened to
helping of dogfood

Beginning with the crackle and smoke of electrical fire straight
• out of the submarine "Seaview' ' in "Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea,"
and ending i n a ludicrous amuse ment park shootout, the film ' ' Clones' '
is an affr9nt to the science fiction_genre.
"Clones" is a prophet-of-doom fantasy based loosely on recent
biological research into the growing of an entire organism from a single
cell taken from another organism - a process known as "cloning.' '
The film is supposed to warn us that such a process could be
used to grow android humans, and that cloning research should be
Stopped . Instead, it warns us to avoid any further efforts by the producers of "Clones'' like a patch of black ice.
The artificial creation of human life nas raised several ethical
and moral questions that are being explored in specul_ative fiction .
However, it appears that co-Producers/co-Directors Paul Hunt and
Lamar Card decided to sidestep the opportunity to make any sort
of important statement, and have created an insipid mad-scientist
melodrama instead.
Our hero is a hi~h-ener~y physicist named Appleby (Michael
Greene), who discovers that one of his cells has been cloned by an
evil biologist. The biologist is in cahoots with the armed forces in
a J.?lot to re121ace J.?Y~icist Appleby with his cloned android twin, and
take over the world using Appleby's knowledge of nuclear fusion reaction.
T

as hppleby is pursued by government agents bent on killing him.
Appleby seems possessed of superhuman energy reserves - he
is beaten repeatedly, drugged, shot, forced to jump from a speeding
car chased across a college campus, through a swamp, up a precipitous mountain road, and yet, through it all he never tires. In fact
•he has enough energy left over near the end to eliminate a small army
of government agents with a never empty revolver that he must have
borrowed from an old western. Television's "Batman' ' . was more
believable.
The cinemagraphic aspects of ''Clones' ' matched the quality of
the plot. We see people leaning in and out of focus, scenes that darken
. and change color in midstream, jumpcuts without apparent purpose
. and side-angle action shots enough to make the stomach turn. In addition the soundtrack might very well have been recorded on a dictaphone.
The one redeeming feature of "Clones" is a fine performance
•
• by character actor Gregory Sierra in a supporting role. Sierra plays
one of the government-employed killers that chases Appleby all over
the place. Despite the terrible script, Sierra's performance is both
entertaining and convincing; which makes him a standout in an otherwise poor cast. The leading players, Greene and Susan Hunt (as Appleby's girlfriend), seem to be reading stockmarket quotes.
"Clones" is a film that longs to be labeled "Turkey," but is
more like a double helping of dogfood.

scholarship attainment and high
school spirit and morale."

Meanwhile, the American Civil
Liberties (h.CLU) in Michigan,
citing a state court of appeals
ruling which went the other way,
urged Superintendent of Public Instruction John Porter to order an
end to suspensions of students for

hair length and styles. The threejudge appellate court had unanimously held that "The purpose
of a school is to educate and
train the students, while the purpose of the hair dress code is
to legislate style or fashion," and
found no connection between the
two. h.CLU has hailed the ruling,
which reinstated a suspended student and called on Porter to "put
an end to this arbitrary nonsense"
of suspensions for long hair.

Tricycle races bac~ again

--'<:~ f )

follo~ing regulation change
The College Side Inn, located across Interstate 5 from LCC,
after a year and half delay, finally received permission from the Oregon Liquor Control Commission (OLCC) to resume a unique form
of entertainment - tricycle races.
The tavern originally began the races during the winter of 1971-72,
but the OLCC promptly ruled that the races were an illegal form of
entertainment. However, the ban was lifted Oct. 5 and soon after
the races began again.
The races begin every Wednesday at 8:30 p.m. The object of
the • race is simple - two tricyclists compete against each other on
an oval track, with the winner going on to compete with other winners
until one becomes champion. Trophies for first, second, and third
place and other awards are given.
College Side In n co-owner Wayne Neal explained that the idea
came from California. But he added that he is unaware of any other
place in Oregon offering tricycle rac ing.

Proposed budget
shows increase
The two charts to the left show
a comparison of how a student's
$5 student body fee was spent under last year's . 1972-73 ASLCC
budget and the amount budgeted
for this year's proposed 1973-74
ASLCC budget.
Last year's budget amounted to
$106,000. This year's budget is
projected at $110,000.
This year's budget shows a de- •
crease in the amount of money
budgeted for athletics. Last year,
$1.18 out of every student's $5
fee was spent on athletics. This
year only $1.13 of each $5 fee
has been budgeted to athletics.
Although athletics is receiving the
·same amount as last year ($25,000)
it appears to be less since the
projected income is higher this
year.
Four items in the proposed budget show an increase over last
- year's budget. The largest in crease is in the general fund area
with an increase from 55~ to
75~. The amount budgeted for publications, activities and medical
services also increased.
Five items have been budgeted
less money than last year. The
largest decrease is in the amount
budgeted for conventions with a
decrease from 40~ to 8~.

Don't just be look ed at,
be look ed up to.
After a young woman enrolls in Air Force ROTC,
she's eligible to compete for an Air Force scholarship
that includes free tuition, ·lab and incidental fees, and
rcimpursement for textbooks for her last 3 years.
l n addition, in their junior and senior years, a tax-free
monthly allowance of$ I 00 is paid to both scholarship
and non-scholarship cadets alike.
When she gets her degree, the career as an Air Force
offi_s;er awaits her-career that matches her abilities to
a job with rewarding challenges. A career with benefits
like 30 days' paid vacation, free dental and medical

Point

Terrifying chaos
Busby

"It was a terrifying sight."
''We knew we were losing the·battle when they started backing up.'
"We were down to about number 110 before the trouble started."
These and other comments by the officials in charge of the finish
at the national cross country meet in Tallahassee only partly expressed
the confusion present near the finish line.
I say "near" because the last 167 runners (of 277 who started the
race) never reached the finish line to be given an official time.
According to Lane Cross Country Coach Al Tarpenning, "hn
adeauate finish procedure has been lacking for the past few years
to keep them (the runners) from stacking up."
But something new was tried Saturday. Five finish chutes were
used to speed up the finish process. However, the exact opposite
was the result - more than half of the runners were being stopped
up to 30 yards from the end. hs a result most of the runners entered
will never know for certain what their times were.
This is a shame because the pace for the race was so fast that
the first 31 runners bettered the existing course record. The individual winner, John Roscoe of Southwestern Michigan, finished the
race a full 50 seconds ahead of the previous mark.
The coaches that were on hand to see the confusion offered some
solutions:
1. Standards should be established in each conference and region
to·qualify for the meet.
2. One more mile should be added to the course, making it five
instead of the present four. This would cause the runners to spread
out inore, giving the finishjtidges more time tq.work.
• •
3. Only the top two teams from each conference or region - and
a certain number of the top runners - should be entered in the meet.
Un ti I these or other solutions are adopted chaos such as
resulted at Tallahassee will be the rule, not the exception.
and - if this happens, the end of national meets will not be far
behind.

Cross Country ...

(Continued from page 10)
and the number · five
runner on the team, liis philosophy
was prophetic.
Allegheny, which tied for the
team championship with Southwestern Michigan, had an unbelievable 30 second spread between
their top five runners , (In cross
country, a spread of 45 seconds
to a minute is considered very
good). Their spacing was so close
that all five of their top runners
made the Junior College AUAmerican team by placing in the
top 25 spots. .
according to the coaches of the
winning teams, Noel I. Cohen for
Allegheny and Ron Gunn for Southwestern Michigan, sophomore •
dominated teams are the ones to
look for in the future. Cohen said,
"One thing is needed to win in
the nationals, sophomores blessed

with super ability and experience."
Cohen ought to know; his teams
over the past six years have established a record of 79 wins,
no loss-es and one tie outside of
national competition.
