The Board also passed the controversial Arthur Young Classified Salary Study and a new rule prohibiting smoking at Board meetings. Ms Smith contended "The Senate has proved so inadequate in their administrative ability that the (LCC) Administration had seen fit to freeze all funds . . . the budget has been illegally misappropriated, and has been over-extended. The present treasurer, Dan Stone, has stated it's irresponsibility in dealing with the budget this year." Machines ready to move If you've guessed the small armada of tractors and earth movers parked along the 30th Ave. hill were building a bike path to LCC, you' re wrong. An increase in LC C commuter traffic has nee-• essitated the widening of 30 th Ave. from LCC to Eugene, at a cost of $580,000, according to George Price, county engineer. Price said the existing three lanes from ·the LCC interchange to University ~t. in Eugene will be widened to four. "We will then have four lanes from University St. all the way to Interstate Five," he added. "Just an increase in traffic warranted the extra lane," Price said. The engineer said periodic traffic slow-ups are inevitable, but hopefully will . not occur until the summer, when ·traffic is H~hter an_Yway. He mentioned the completion date is scheduled for Aug. 31, 1974, so students returning in the fall will not be affected. "There probably won't be much activity on it this winter because of the weather; in fact, workers are stopped right now because of the rain," Price commented.

Leasure, reacting to his appointment to the first vice presi(Continued on page 5) Ms. Smith continued. "We, as a committee. would like to see that this money (the annual $15 spent by each full-time student) directly benefits you (the students). We feel however, that with the present form of government, it is not being spent in your (the students) best interests. The Senate has had internal conflict for a few years now. Thi s year it has come to a head. We would like to see a new type of government, one that would involve students.'' Board member Catherine Lauris, speaking to acting ASLCC President Barry Hood then stated that it was inexperience that was causing the problems and that they (the Senate) should turn to the counseling staff before making misjudgements, if any had been made. She- also suggested that they abandon the old way and use small groups to be the governing body. Hood said that he was thinking of incorporating an Intra-Club Council into the Senate during his administration: The club presidents, he said would make up the members of the Council. In other business, the Board passed the controversial classified salary study, which will go into effect Jan. 1. According to a memorandu m from LCC Business Manager Bill Watkins, the study was first suggested by the SPPC (the staff bargaining agent) last year. The SPPC later withdrew the suggestion. However, the Board approved and began the study. The goal of the survey was to review all classified fobs to see if the jobs (as described in job description) matched the salaries paid by the college. The study results recommanded raising the bottom salary attainable for classified staff arid lowering the ceiling salaryo In this case, a person who has worked for the college for a number of years may get a minimal raise while a new employee with less experience may start out with the same salary, according to Watkins' memo. David Butler, of the Information and Publications Office, told the Board meeting that he felt this "was the last gasp" for the classified staff before the study is approved and put into effect. He said that he felt that the "whole report revolves around the salary guide, not the job descriptions. It's going to save some bucks now - but it's going to chase new people away." Evelyn Tennis, an employee in the Financial Aids Office, stated (Continued on page 4) Funds frozen until documents issue resolved David Simmons Roger Leasure government.

A court decision in favor of Red Fox's suit could invalidate the Senate's impeachment of Red Fox and return him to the presidency. Hood announced the appointment of Roger Leasure to the office of ASLCC First Vice President the office left vacant when Hood succeeded Red Fox as ASLCC president. (Leasure was appointed ASL CC .second vice president at the start of Fall Term after Kenny The ASLCCfunds which were "frozen' last week will be "thawed" when the student government documents are updated and filed with the Administration perhaps this week, according to Dean of Students, Jack Carter. Carter had effectively frozen the ASLCC funds Nov. 7 when he requested Jay Jones, ASL CC student activities adviser, not to sign any more requisitions from the ASLCC "until the issues surrounding the d'ocuments ... are resolved.'' Jones said Friday that he thought the thaw may be "pretty close now," indicating that it may come by Tuesday (today). He said that Barry Hood, acting ASLCC president, had sent a packet of documents to Carter with a cover-letter stating, "These are the only recognized existing legal documents •.• and will be adhered to ... " Carter said he had received the packet, including the ASLCC Constitution and Bylaws as listed in the Student Handbook, and was still waiting for the Senate, as a body, to make the re-affirmation. Both Carter and Jones are to have complete up-dated sets of documents, with the dates of ratification listed and the rationale of all changes included, Jones said. This would reestablish and maintain the legality and responsibility of the positions taken by the Senate, Carter maintained. He said '' This action was ''. . . prompted by my concern over the amount of student funds that may be mis-spent without regard to existing policies, at least the policies that have been presented to the Student Body through the Student Handbook.'' Carter further explained that the funds will be freed when the Administration knows the ASLCC Senate has established for itself as a body to consistently follow them. Page 2 TORCH Nov. 20, 1973 the .forum the forum the (Editor's note: The Forum serves as an opportunity for members of the LCC community or those involved in the community to express their opir.ions. The following Forums(below and on page 3) were written, respectively, by: Jitn Crouch, former Torch associate editor and now UO student; Robin Burns, current ASLCC Publicity Director; and an LCC student who has asked to remain anonymous since job, family, and reputation are fe ared to be in jeopardy because of the stand taken below on the issue of Gay Liberation.) Two wee ks ago action by th e LCC Admi nistra ti on destroyed any illusion there might have been concerning student r ights or student government on the LCC campus. This atroc i ty was compounded by an editorial endorsement in the TORCH applauding the Administ rat ion's ac tion - the sam e paper that purports to be the voice of students and the watchdog of student rights. Jack Carter, L CC dean of students, and Jay Jones, student ac tivities advisor, char ged the '1.SLCC Student Senate with non-adherence tb their governing documents. At the same time they tried, convicted and sentenced the Student Senate by an action that cuts off all the working funds. In a memorandum, Garter and Jones informed the aSLCC that their funds we.re frozen until such time they could comply with thei,r documents. Prior to this action, the ASLCC had not been advised that they were in violation, nor have there been any specific charges filed (with one exception)". During Summer Term, the TORCH and the editor were charged with nonadherence to Media Commission Guidelines. The TORCH was afforded the right of due process. Formal charges were filed listing specific violations and then a hearing was held. The Media Commission then met and listened to both sides - thus justice was served to all c.oncerned. Had the TORCH been denied due process and the Administration shut the newspaper down until such time as they complied (regardless of whether the charges were valid or not), indeed, student rights would have been violated as they are being violated in the case of the Student Senate. It is hard to understand why the Administration and the TORCH would deny the Student Senate the same RIGHT. Last week when the student leaders pleaded their case before the LCC Board of Education, they were told by Board member Catherine Lauristo seek more advice from student counselors in order to avoid errors. Instead of giving such innovative advice, Ms. Lauris should have asked Dean Carter and Jay Jones w)lat specific charges whether they were fulfilling their existed and responsibilities at the time· the alleged document violations were taking place. The only official charges of document violations were fil ed by ASL CC Senator Rick Mathews a couple of months ago and these were charged against (then ASLCC President) David Red Fox. These charges were filed th rough D~an Carter's office and to this date Dean Carte r has not set a time or place so that both sides could have their day in court. At no time has either Dean Carter · or Jay Jones come before the Senate and informed that body that they were in violation. In both Dean Carter 's and Jones' job description, they are responsible to advise and help the ASLCC becom e selfgoverning. Had this been done all along at times of question, this whole mess could have been avoided. Instead, student rights have been violated because questions of alleged document violations were not resolved at the time they presented themeleves . The very people that are responsible for dealing with Senate problems let those problems slide and compound; then, when the situation reached an explosive level, Carter reacted in a manner·' that has been damaging to all concerned. Last week, Dean Carter also sent a ~emo to LCC President Eldon Schafer recommending some changes concerning the Student Senateo One of these recommendations was that the Board and the Administration needed to develop a framework with _in which the students can operate . If this type of thinking prevails on the Administration level, then student rights and student government are in fact just a myth on the LCC campus.

It is a mess because a student cannot pick up an ASLCC document and know that it is current. The documents published in the student handbook are not current, eventhough these are the documents that the students will consult and follow.

An alternative governmental system can be implemented through a special initiative election, warranted by a petition with 600 signatures, according to the present documents. My mother always taught me never to tear anything down until I had something concrete and viable to put in its place. I will be working within the Senate for at least as long as I am a Senate member to strengthen its organization and structur e. However, I will also be working on the formation of alternative systems because I feel that the stu- dents should have a choice - that just because a system exists does not mean that it is the best possible system. If we, the students, want to change our student government, we can do it. And we can do it ourselves. It is up to us - not the Adminis tration, not the Board of Education, not the Senate - to blueprint, adopt and implement an alternative form of government, if that is what we want. It can be done; not in two weeks, perhaps not even in two months, but it can be done. Think about it. • Gay Allia nce asks com mitte e for equa l rights The Eugene Human Rights Com mission was formed as an arm of the EugeneCity Council. This commission has been given the task of guaranteeing the citizens of this city the basic civil rights to which they are entitled under the US Con-stitution. These rights include protection from discrimi nation onthe basis of race, creed, color, national origin and sex (as in gender). The Eugene Human Rights Commission (HRC) is actively involved in eliminating such discrimi nation in the areas of housing, employment and public accomodations. Does the legislation supporting the action of the HRC mean there is no longer prejudic ial action taken against minoritie s - for instance, Blacks - in Eugene? No, it doesn't But it provides for legal and affirmative action against this and similar forms of discrimi nation. There remains one segment of the population of Eugene which is not presently protected by the City Code under which the HRC operates. This group is the gay people of Eugene. From lack of protection, gay people are presently evicted from their homes, forced from their jobs and denied their right to many public accomodations simply because of their sexual orientation. This is discrimi nation, and it is unjust. Gay people maintain it t o be their right to the same sanctity of home, the same security of employment and the same enjoyment of public accomodations which are taken for granted by the larger population. The Eugene Human Rights Commission stands in agreement with the gay people of this city. They are now supporting a measure be- fore the City Council which would include "sexual orientati on'' in its list of ·areas assured basic civil rights which now includes race, creed, color, national origin and sex. There are those who voice objection to such legislati on. This oppositio-n is usually founded either on the basis that homosexuality is immora l or that it ·is a mental illness. It is interesting to note that such religious groups as the Friends Church, the Unitaria n/Unive rsalist Church, and the Lutheran Church have supported the gay persons right to protection under the law, and have done this in formal statements. another pertinant piece of information is that the American Psychia tric Association, and the Oregon Psychiatric Ass_ociation have both removed homosexua ity from their lists of pathologies. In addition, the America n Medical Association is presentl y taking a close look at their present position and considering reclassi fying homosexuality from "pathology" to "dysfunc tion'' . . . much on the same level as appendicitis. The positions taken by these and other honored and timeproven organizations are ample evidence that oppression of gay people is neither morally nor medically justified . Another objection is that legislation will not automatically put an end to discrimi nation. Nor did it put an end to unjust oppression of Blacks, women, or Native Americans. But now those groups can take action within the law against ·such oppression. Because of civil rights legislatio n, the public has -become· aware ·of the e- OPTOMETRIST Dr. Robt. J.

Similarl y, laws will not stop, in an instant, the oppression of gay people. But they will help inform the public that gay people are not so different and that they deserve equal protection under the law. To deny gay people legislati ve protection is to confirm the fact that they are oppressed and unjustly treated. What can be done to assure gay oeople freedom from unjust discriminat ion? The anti-disc riminatio n rnea-, sure presently before the Eugene City Council is one oositive step toward that goal. This measure is sponsored by the Eugene Human Rights Commission, the Eugne Gay Peoples Alliance, and Eugene Gay Women. It also needs your support. If you agree that gay people should be protected from the pain of unjust eviction, firing and harrassment, do not hesitate to inform the city council of your feelings, either by telephone or letter. The entire community will benefit.

First the bad: It's for sure that the WHO are completely by-passing the Pacific Northwest. Closest they'll come is San Fransisco. Oh well . . . . But now for what may be the biggest thing, musically, on the West Coast this winter! It's not been announced yet (so you're reading it here for the first time anywhere!) but it's all set for , BOB DYLaN and the BA.ND to do a show in the Seattle Coliseum on Feb. 9! So, if you're interested, it would definjtely be wise to start thinkin' about tickets before too long 'cause they won't last long once they start selling 'em. Back now to the Eugene area, where the big thing is still the S~ab.le. Their Booking Agent says they'll be opening the front half of the building Thanksgiving weekend. And, hopefully they will officially g_et thin~s underway sometime during the first week in December with music from RICK NELSON. . And it's for sure that BACHMAN TURNER OVERD~IVE will be at the Stable on Dec. 17. And they'll be followed by three nights of music from PAINTER. Around the third week of December, the Stable will be doing a special blue-grass night, and are working on arrangements for a " country" night. Speaking of blue-grass, tonight (Tuesday) you can catch _the GOODWILL BAND at the Erb Memorial Union Fishbowl, and it's free, courtesy of Fishbowl Follies. The GOODWILL BAND is an oldtime jugband and if you're at all into jugband music, it'd be well worth braving th.e rainy weather to hear ... especially considering the price. The POINTER SISTERS will be in Eugene on the 5th of December. They'll be playing at the U of o, but in case you can't get tickets, a fairly reliable source says that the odds are good that KZEL-FM will be broadcasting it live. . And while I'm on the subject of KZEL, they have some really nice things happening that are worth a few words. Next Sunday, the King Buiscuit Flower Hour will feature POCO and LIVINGSTON TAYLOR. In case you've never listened to one of the Flower Hours, what they are is a taped concert. and they're broadcast in quadrophonic in case you're equipped for four channel. "Warning!

Wulf, legal director for the ACLU national office since 1962, was in • Eugene to address th e U of 0 Law School on "Civil Liberties in The Current Supreme Court.'' According to the Lane County Chapter of a CL U, Wulf has argued more cases before the US Supreme Court than any other ~ttorney in the history of the Un~ted States. Wulf talked at length about the recent unprecedented decision of the ACLU to support impeachment proceedings against the President. He said in the past the ACLU has concerned itself with only nonpartisan and non-political advocacy of civil liberties but the Nixon Administration's po 1i c i es have changed this. There comes a time when the ACLUmust, I think, advocate impeachment . . .,; said Wulf, especially when "the President is in such total disregard for the civil liberties of the American people, that he jeopardizes the whole constitutional scheme.'' Wulf gave examples of acts which he considers abridgments of civil liberties: • I1legally recording conversations. • Usurpation of Congressional war-making powers. • Attacks on the press. • widespread spying by the armed forces. Appointments... (Continu~d from page I) dencv~ stated that at first he had no intention of accepting the po·sition "because I enjoyed directing student activities and at the time I saw no one as a replacement." He continued, "However, I also saw a need for an effective first vice president that would work to get more students involved in the government. · "Now with David (Simmons), who is more than capable of doing an excellent job, I feel free to ac.:. cept the position,' Leasure concluded. Commenting on what he sees as the major duties of his new office, Leasure stressed, '' I will inspire more students to vote than have ever voted before. I see the role of handling student elections, publicizing, and directing them, as my prime role." He added that he plans to place more emphasis on his duties as ombudsman also. Following his appointment, Simmons announced that his first duty in office will be to update the second vice presidency's job description. In conjunction with this update, he said he plans to come up with a long-range activities calendar, starting Winter Term. He went on to cite specific activities he plans to emphasize, declaring, "One of the areas has to be athletics, after all, we give them $25,000 a year. I'm especially interested in pushing basketball; maybe even having a Student Senate sponsored dance after the games.'' Concerning the scheduling of films and speakers on campus, he promised, "We only have a $1,000 a term for this area, but we're going to make every dollar count." Simmons revealed that he also wants to investigate the possibility of having entertainment in the college cafeteria during lunch.

Wulf said the President had infringed on the private rights of individuals when he had recorded conversations in his own office without first advising those ueing recorded. The ACLU official charged the President with usurping the warmaking powers of Congress by deliberately concealing the bombing: of Cambodia from Congress and the American people. Wulf said attacks on the American press by the Nixon Administration have intimidated and diluted the First Amendment's guarantee o{ freedom of the press. -He said spying by the armed forces and misuse of police agencies were also breaches of constitutional provisions of privacy. "Widespread spying by the armed forces began in 1967 and expanded so as to engage wide sections of military intellignece into surveillance of purely peaceful and constitutionally protected activity,' ' Wulf ·explained. He listed as constitutionally wrong misuse of law enforcement agencies, such as the FBI and the Internal Revenue Service, to intimidate and penalize so-called enemies of the Nixon administ,ration, and drawing Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) into domestic affairs.

Page 8 TORCH Nov~ 20, 1973 'Music to eat lunch by' Review: 'Heavr: Traffic' Coroner's view of life By Bill Tufts "Heavy Traffic," Ralph Bakshi's latest film, might have been more appropriately named "Brutal Pileup.''lf you've been watching what passes for animation on television and wondering wh~re all the animators have gone, I ha'\'e the answer. They were all strung-out on downers somewhere and have now been hired by American International films to aid writer-director Ralph Bakshi in reflecting on the hµman condition from the New York City Coroner's point-of-view. , Bakshi's second film (his first was "Fritz the Cat'') has brought together a crew of talented and capable animators and produced what is at once the most creative animated feature since ''Fantasia" and brutal enough to pale Sam Pekinpah. "Traffic' ' is a story depicting a young underground cartoonist named Michael -as he fantasizes about his life in an Italian neighborhood of New York City. The film is a sythesis of live and animated action that is, but for one sequence, superb. "Traffic' opens with the real-life Michael playing a pinball machine. As his mind drifts into a fantasy version of his life, the film becomes animated. From that point on, each juncture of the animated action &Qams t~ ht1 somehow controlled by Michael's luck at the pinball machine until, in the end, Michael runs out of money and we jump abruptly ... back to reality with hlm. But Michael's luck at pinball must be rotten. The fantasy that Michael dreams up is savage - it depicts his life as one of constant frustration in a violent, uncaring world peopled by the barbarous dregs of society. Every character but Michael is drawn and characterized in dialogue as the depraved product of a sick society. His Italian crook-father and hovering-Jewish-mother are in total war - fighting wfth deadly weapons any time they get close ·enough to see each other. 'Bakshi set Michael in conflict with all manner of big-city stereotypes; from a breast-obsessed uncle in the garment district to the decrepit head . of a cartoon-strip . syndicate, who's being kept alive by medical machines. Not one person Michael meets is out to do him anything but dirt. Even his girlfriend starts out helping him bat ends up hurting. For all his determination to show the seamy truth of urban life, Bakshi is unable to portray his own intense feeling without borrowing ideas from other films. His script borrows from "The Godfather," "On the Waterfront" and "Walk· on the Wildside"; and at least one sequence of his imagery comes direct from a Disney film. The latter is a parody of a sequence in "Lady and the Tramp." In Disney's film the sequence involved a cutesy-pie cocker spaniel (Lady) meeting some seamy, (but lovable) friends of her also lovable mongrel beau (Tramp)~ The differnece •is that no one in "Traffic'' is lovable - laughable but not loveable. The misanthropic sarcasm as well as the brilliant animation .of ':Heavy Traffic' 1 can be enjoyed, but only if you check your squeamishness at the door. Bargaining ... ( Continued from ·page 4) more powerful than student governments if there is not greater student participation. H e _also warned of possible conflicts of interest between faculties and students in contracted negotiations Students today fear that faculty unionization will result in increased fees and tuitions, interruption of education during strikes, and a diminished student voice in educational affairs, he said. Shark concluded, however, that students shouldn't oppose collective bargaining for faculties-but organize unions of their own to fight for student interests instead. ************** DAIRY~ ANN Breakfa~t, lunches, dinners. .
