LCC the week of ja nuary 22, 197 4 vol. 11 no. 18 lane community college, 4000 east 30th avenue, eugene, oregon 97405 AS~ housing draws fire 00 PffiG ( Oregon Student Public Interest Research Group) has issued a report charging Adult Student Housing (ASH) Inc. with mismanagement of funds and improperlv raising rents, based on the conclusions of a federal audit by the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) ASH, a non-profit organization based in Portland, operates ASHLane housing for LCC students in Eugene and five other campus apartment buildings in Oregon. The audit was ordered by HUD last year after OOPIRG charged that ASH had improperly raised rents on its rental units at Pacific University. The HUD investigation (published by Charles J. Hay, regional inspector general for Audit, Region X, Seattle) showed that "Operating revenues from the subject projects were used for other than the operations and maintenance of the projects and the amounts paid for certain goods and services exceeded generally acceptable amounts." The HUD audit found that Fred Bender and Phillip McLennan, the two principal officers of ASH, purchased two'' luxury'' cars for company use. The autos were paid for from rental revenues, and the purchases were criticized as "excessive" in the report. The· HUD audit also criticized ASH for paying high office rent to a firm called AUXENT, a partnership of the two principals (Bender and McLennan). Rent payments exceeded $1,300 a m on th and AUXENT had a $3,000 profit from the office rental before depreciation, based on its 1972 tax return. The audit noted that the sal- • Ashlane aries exceeded 10 per cent of the rent paid by students at the ASH projects. The usual fees for managing rental property are from six to ten per cent, according to the 00 PRIG report. A. Portland HUD representative , the report said, confirmed that salaries received by Bender and McLennan were $50,000 to $55,000 a year. The HUD audit covered only the· ASH housing at Pacific Universtiy, Mt. Hood College, and Clatsop Community College, and the salaries are only for the management of these units. It is not known how much the two are charging to manage other ASH units in Oregon. ASH was formed in 1969 to provide a college housing project at Pacific University. All of the projects owned by ASH were financed from College Housing Program funds without any cash investment from the prinripals, the firm, or the educational institutions serviced by the projects. The OOPffiG report concludes that '' tenants should petition their congressmen to make HUD remove Bender and McLennan from management of ASH housing, and lower rents.'' OOPffiG sent a letter last week to Oregon senators and congressmen asking their help in "persuading HUD to take effective action against Bender and McLennan for the benefit of students living at ASH housing." Student questions P.E.Dept. on ski class refund policy "All I want is $60 refunded,'· said LCC student Sandi Shaw. Ms. Shaw recently withdrew from the ski class offered by the LCC PE Department this term, after one class session, and discovered that her fees were not refundable. "The information sheet the PE Department hands out," stated Ms. Shaw, "led me to believe that only $15 of the total $75 fee was non-refundable.' The paragraph in the ski class syllabus on fees reads, "A nonrefundable $15 fee must be paid at the time of registration. The balance of the $75 must be. paid by Jan. 3 to the Business Office. Please keep a receipt and show it at the bus the first day of class.'' Richard Newell, PE Department chairman said, '' I agree , it could've been written more clearly. But the intent is there." Newell pointed out the school policy on fee refunds as stipulated in the schedule of classes - "Student Body fees are non-refundable. Fees for curricular offerings will not be refunded unless approved by the appropriate department chairman.'· Newell said the money could not be refunded because commitments had to be made to reserve transportation and instruction. "If we were to refund the money, either the school or the people who remain in the class would have to shoulder the extra cost," he explained. Ms. Shaw said she has filed an appeal to be brought before the LCC Academic Council, which is scheduled to m~et Feb. 4. Senate asked to aid loan fund The Financial Aids office has requested $5000 from the ASLCC Senate for the Student Emergency Loan Fund, which offers sho1 tterm loans of $50 to LCC students. The request was submitted to the Senate by Evelyn Tennis of the Financial Aids office at its Jan. 10 meeting, where it was referred to the Finance Committee. At this time no further action has • been taken on the matter. .. The Emergency Loan Fund was funded by the ASLCC Senate in 1970, for $500. In 1971, the Senate appropriated $1,500 to the fund Transportation improvement sought Jerry Edgmon, LCC Student Awareness Center (SAC) director, stated last week that LCC should be more actively involved in helping students with their transportation problems. "I know the college has a 20 passenger bus and I'd like to see it put to use helping students get to school,'' he explained. Edgmon said that originally he tried to persuade the Administration to use the bus on shuttle runs up and down the 30th Ave. hill to help students hitchhiking or riding bicycles out to Lane. He later revised his proposal to recommend that the bus be used to help students living in outlying areas not served by the Lane Transit District (LTD). "I'd like to see the bus make two round trips a day out to Blue River. I know of at least 27 students that live out there that aren't served by LTD,' ' he said. In light of Edgmon's proposal, LCC President Eldon Schafer was asked by the TORCH if the college felt any responsibility for insuring that students are able to get to school. "Not in particular,'' he replied, explaining, "The basic concept in Oregon is that community colleges are commuter schools: This concept is pretty true nation-wide, too." He pointed out that unlike four-year resident colleges, community colleges are prevented by state law from using any funds for student residence housing. "Without residence facilities we are pretty much stuck with a commuter situation,'' he admitted. Dr. Schafer also ruled out a college operated bus service. '' Because high school attendence is pretty much compulsory, high schools are obligated to see that students have a way to get to school,' he (Continued on back page) This is what LCC's Gonyea Road looked like during the recent Oregon floods. It created many inconveniences, as the plight of one LCC student (Photo by Bob Wilson) illustrates. and in 1972, the amount was raised to $2,500. • This year, the Senate did not appropriate any monies to the fund. The short-term loans are available to any student attending LCC, said Ms. Tennis, but the full amount of the loan (no more than $50) must be repaid before the student can request another loan or receive any grant for a new school term. The fund was originally intended to be self-perpetuating, but some students leave school before repaying their loans. which has been one criticism of the Fund by the Administration, she admitted. In answer to the criticism, Ms. Tennis said she has researched the ledgers in the Business Office and found that the mergency loan '' repayment record is at least as good as the student tuition deferment record. The majority _' of the students who borrow do repay the loans." Ms. Tennis has also requested funding from the LCC Administration but President Eldon Schafer has said that he can offer no additional help from the school budget at this time. Because the fund is fluid, and does not retain the same balance from day to day Ms. Tennis said she could not tell the Senate what the balance is now, but only that it is not enough to cover the student emergency needs. Besides the repayment factor, Ms. Tennis listed the increase in enrollment over the past school year as an additional reason for increased emergencies. She also said that the cost of living has gone up but student grants remain the same as last year. Ms. Tennis asked that the Senate give "as many dollars as possible" if they cannot appropriate the full $5000 needed. Page 2 TORCH Jan. 22, 1974 I Leadership on a college campus comes in many shapes and forms. Each individual group must be represented if a fair check and balance system is to be maintained. The aSLCC Senate is the recognized group of student leaders - these students are elected on an annual basis by the student body. However, the burden of proof still rests on these individuals to establish their leadership capabilities. Positive action and a high regard for the student body's needs is not too much to ask from . these student leaders. In the past the student body has seen a great fluctuation of capabilities between the different groups that have occupied the Senate offices. Some of this was caused by incompetent elected students who couldn't get any further than their over-inflated egos would allow. But on the other hand, the student body has also gained through talented, competent leaders who helped create student health services and the ·recently established student legal services. At the ·expense of sounding idealistic true - -leadership is demonstrated by far sighted actions of the l atter r ather than short-sighted concepts demonstrated by some of the past administrations. The past flap among the ASLCC Senate, as a result of the Red Fox ouster can be turned into a very positive and rewarding situation for all concerned. The new executive cabinet which has emerged is now in a position to supply a more positive trend in leadership. Now is the time to remove doubts, or at least establish their ability to supply leadership. Past actions should never be held against an organization but rather should serve as harsh reminders of what can happen when elected student leaders lose sight of the respon- • sibilities their positions demand. In view of the past discrepancies concerning the college Administration's apparent neglect in informing the student body of policies (see last week's TORCH), a serious question is now raised concerning whether the Administration is violating the school's Institutional Bill of Rights. The ASLCC would benefit the whole student body if they were to bring official charges against the Administration through the Academic Council in an attempt to clarify this question and possiblv insure that students rights are protected.I • • The aSLCC could also comply with their own Bill of Rights. They should establish the required judicial council to hear student grjevances, no matter what the sub- WEEKLY. SPECIAL Attention _ Wilbur Mills: 'Next Year' is Here! by Jack· Anderson 1 •!Copyr ight. ·_1974, by United Feature Syndicate, Inc.) WASHINGTON-The powerful House Ways and Means chairman, Wilbur Mills, has been promising tax reforms for two years. In 1972 and again in 1973, he promised to make this his first priority - next year . Two next years have now come and gone without any noticeable improvement in the tax laws. On the contrary, each Christmas during the scramble to adjourn, new tax benefits have been hung on the Christmas tree for the special interests. Each new benefit has cost the rest of the taxpayers a few more million dollars. But now the taxpayers are up in arms. They have discovered that President Nixon paid no; more taxes on a $250,000 annual income than an ordinary worker with the (Continued on page 3) EJitorial The innocent bystander ject. This would not only serve to insure · that student rights will be upheld, but also that student government is responsive to their needs. One word of caution though - this committee should be separated from the main body of student government in order to provide an additional check and balance that is necessary to maintain credibility. One other area that is almost nonexistent on this campus is student representation on committees that make or change in policy, curriculum, personnel, or any other area that will affect the student body. Students should have a voice on every issue that has the potentfa'f to alter the quality of the education at this institution. It might be wise to select student members for these committees outside the main body of the ASLCC Senate, thus leaving more time to the Senators to deal with the college Administration on matters that would assure students a more equitable voice on campus regarding their educational destiny. The ASLCC, in the past, has overlooked the struggles of faculty in fighting Administrative demands for more "productivity." In essence, the Administration has been-pushing the faculty to undertake larger student-teacher ratios, thus enlarging the size of each class. Not only is there a danger of the quality of education dropping, but also the now enjoyed rapport between instructor and student will suffer. The age old problem between Administration and faculty is never ending. However, without the support of the student body and student leaders the quality of education at this institution will continually suffer in the name of efficiency. Let's face it, the quality of education is the crux of what being a student is all about. If student rights are to prevail on this campus, then a total leadership representation must come forth. This is not an impossibility, but rather presents an interesting moment of truth: Are student leaders going to conduct business as usual, or respond to the new challenges how confronting them? ~ - - ~ ~ " ' ' , t ~i '"'- mu~r.a,17 I ..1 1 ( f ' ~ ~ (JJIJ»~~.,, Letters Save Your Energy-Sleep Late by Art Hoppe Our leaders' drastic steps to save our energy, such as imposing Daylight Savings Time, have caused grumbling. Parents, for example, are grumbling about packing .their kids off to school in the dark. Consequently, many schools are now starting classes an hour later, which isn't getting us anywhere. It has also infuriated our leaders. Congressman Bagley Boodle, for one, is drawing up a bill to set our clocks ahead still another hour . This will show our schools a thing or two. "If getting up an hour before sunrise saves energy," says Boodle logically, " getting up two hours before sunrise will save twice as much." Unfortunately, the benefits of the Boodle Bill would be nullified by a White House plan to cut every hour down to 30 minutes. This, of course, would halve the hourly fuel consumption of Air Force One and the President would no longer have to fly commercial. On the other hand, the White House plan for shorter hours, while it has the backing of organized l abor, would double the kilowatt hours of electricity th~ nation uses. Consequently, S~nator Burton -Bagatelle has introduced a companion measure increasing every minute to 120 seconds. "This will not only halve the number of shorter hours during which people are wasting energy,' he says, "but it will give millions of American joggers the opportunity to run a four-minute mile." But perhaps the most imaginative proposal is that of our new Energy Csarina, Madeline Mift. She notes that we are now consuming 18 million barrels of oil a dayor 2. 7 million barrels more than our supply. "By the simple expedient of eliminating 100 days a year,' · she says, "we will save 1800 million barrels, giving us an annual surplus of 624.5 million barrels which we can sell back to the Arabs." Ms. Mift would begin by eliminating all 52 Sundays as the only effective way of banning Sunday driving. Workers would be given Saturdays and Mondays off so they could enjoy a long, 48 -hour weekend . The other 48 days would be taken from the winter months to conserve on heating fuel. They would include the two hectic, energy-consuming weeks before Christmas, New Year's Eve and the 33 coldest ctays in January and February, whatever they might be each year.

Over enrollm ent may cut budge t "We may not know until the beginning of Spring Term if we will have enough money to run all of the classes we will be offering,'' observed Henry Douda, LCC instructional budget officer. Douda said the problem LCC faces is that enrollment is higher than previously anticipated. According to Douda, all community colleges in Oregon are awarded money by the state on the basis of Full Time Equivilancy (FTE) students. ''Generally speaking, FTE is a yardstick iided by the state to determine the number of full time class hours taught per term. Forty-five credit hours of transfer work or 680 hours of vocational work per year equals one FTE student,' Douda said. Douda explained that the state legislature only meets every odd year, during which time they compute school budgets~ ''When the legislature met last year, LCC had hit a flat spot in attendance: When you hit a flat spot in the same year the legislature meets, it really hurts because it affects the projected enrollment for the next two years,' ' Douda said. He said the state predicted LCC would have about 5,900 FTE students for this school year but that all signs now point to a total of 6,700 FTE studen~s by the end of Spring Term. Douda said the state awards ·$595 per FTE student and since LCC is about 800 FTE students higher than expected, this amounts to $476,00 0 in reimbursements the college has not received. "We are going to the special session of the legislature to see if they will reimburse us for the over-enrollmen t," Douda said. "The administrators are optimistic that we will get some funding - probably not the whole parcel, but whatever the state can allot to us,' he commented.

According to Loeber, the service has enjoyed a great deal of national prominence, but he feels that the area of service lies on the LCC campus, providing "quality helath care for short-term illnesses and injuries' that might otherwise cause a student to miss days or weeks of class because of lack of money for a doctor. as is the question of the futu clinic.

The staff includes a be able to deal with their own part-time doctor, lab technician, two part-time clinic. and two full-time nurses, plus volunteers and nursing students. When asked how LCC's clinic compares with those of other Oregon community colleges, Loeber emphasized that such a comparison was difficult and unfeasible. LCC is second in student population out of 13 schools. He said the largest, Portland Community College, has mor.e students, community services, and money to work with. The third largest, Mount Hood, has smaller services to deal with its fewer students. But Loeber added his opinion that LCC's clinic is more effective than some in dealing with its own problems. When asked about nationwide comparisons, he said 34 junior and community colleges in 21 states had written requesting information on the LCC clinic and its services. According to statistics of a college health service board, the LCC clinic holds its own on its level with UCLA and Berkeley services. According to Loeber, " . . . we don't approach things as being problems, just concerns." One of their larger concerns is money. Loeber would like to stabilize the funding base of the clinic. Presently, half of its funds come from the general fund, and half from student fees.. Out of five dollars paid as fees by each student, $1.41 goes into the clinic. Loeber said that he'd like to know what the Student Senate •does with the other $3.59.

In a preliminary presentation to the Student Health Service Clinic Committee last Friday, student Health Coordinator John Loeber explained the proposals and emphasized that "this budget is not a formal request, it has been devised by the Health Services staff to reflect what we would consider quality health care in the realm of primary health care." The proposed budget is broken down into the following categories: • $78,591 for salaries (an increase of $31,251 over this year) • $11,187 for fringe benefits for part-time employees (fringe benefits have not been included in previous budgets) • $9,010 for health clinic materials and sup- LCC. plies (an increase of $410) • $2,500 for family planning clinic materials and supplies (maintained at the present level) • $10,000 for dental services (an increase of $7,200 over this year) • $1,000 for prescriptions (an increase of $700) • $1,500 for capital outlay (maintained at the present level). The increase in the amount budgeted for salaries is a result of the creation of four new positions and an attempt to conform hourly wages with the current pay scales in the Eugene medical community, according to Loeber. The proposed new positions include a health services director, a nurse/counselor, a part-time secretary, and an administrative assistant. The salaries and new position will also facilitate an evening health service program. Loeber's justification for necessary medical staff and working hours is based on the numbe·r of patients seen each year and the average amount of time spent with each patient by each medical person. LCC recognizes a fringe benefit level of about 18 per cent of an employee's salary for those who are employed full-time basis. The salaries of the half-time medical staff at the clinic are paid by the aSLCC rather than the administration, and Loeber feels that fringe benefits for these people are justifiable because they contribute many hours to the clinic over and above the hours for which they are paid. "You can't expect to maintain a competent, qualified staff without providing .them with reasonable salaries and compensation," he stated. The proposed salaries will also be variable due to secretarial and professional level changes, and to collective bargaining options open to nurses through the Oregon Nursing Association. The increase in the amount budgeted for materials and supplies is due to a proposed program of health education, an extension of the clinic's orientation toward preventive health care, said Loeber. The family planning clinic, which was new to Lane Fall Term, is to be maintained at the presen~ level. Dental services are now available through the clinic for emergency cases and are presently funded at $2,800. Loeber is proposing an allocation of $10,000 for developing an expanded program of dental care for LCC students, but the program has not been outlined nor have the op- erational possibilities been researched at this time. A prescription loan fund is currently operating on a $33 budget, the purpose of which is to allow students to p u r c ha s e necessary prescriptions even though they are temporarily out of funds. The proposed $1,000 allocation would expand this program to make prescriptions available on campus at cost, through retaining a pharmacist to package standing orders. The capital outlay figure ($1,500) remains the . same in order to improve the . laboratory efficiency, according to Loeber. The clinic lab is presently using a microscope, on loan from an LCC science instructor, which is not well suited to medical use. The clinic is hoping to purchase a microscope for about $800. It also hopes to purchase an incubator, which will enable them to conduct their own bacteriological pro~edures. Cultures are now mailed to labs in the community and take at least a day to reach their destinations. Therefore, the results are not as accurate as they could be if done on campus, according to Loeber. The clinic is currently negotiating with the administration for a permanent space. "It's like the old question of which came first - the chicken or the egg," stated Loeber. "We can't get permanent space until we can give the administration a strong committment that the clinic will be able to continue financially, but a large budget like this will be inoper,ative if we can't get the perm' anent space.' This year the clinic was funded at approximately $36,000 by the administration and $31,150 by the ASLCC - a total of about $70,000. The proposed 1974-75 budget would require additional funding of about $44,000. Two possible methods of obtaining the additional funds, according to Loeber, are the assessment of a $4,00 health fee _p er student per ter~, or an assessment of approximately 46 cents per credit hour per student per term. This year $1.41 out of the $5.00 student 'body fee paid by each full-time student goes to student health services. The proposed budget is still open for revision by the Student Health Service Clinic Com- • mittee, after which it will be reviewed by the administration, the Board of Education, the ASL CC Senate , and then go to a student vote sometime this spring. • • 1967 to 1974 '----..

Titans collapse, drop three This week the Titans will be trying to regroup after a dissappointing week that saw them drop three straight to Central Oregon CC 87-85 to Umpqua CC by 70 to 48, and at home against LinnBenton 78-68. Tuesday night the Titans raced to a 17 point half time lead against Central Oregon behind the scoring of Wayne Shelton, who scored 14 first half points, and Rob Smith, who chipped in with 10. From then on it was all downhill. Coach Dale Bates assigned some of the blame for the loss on a second half breakdown in defense and a loss of concentration on offense. "We just got sloppy in the second half, we weren't aggressive and had n.o killer instinct. Central Oregon kept getting easy shots while we turned cold.' as they lost by a score of 70 to Even with the problems that Lane 48. was having it took Central Oregon The first half set the tone for until ll:06 remained before they the game as Lane could only mancaught the Titans.

Grapplers extend vvin streak The wrestling Titans extended their league record to 4-1 with weekend victories over Blue Moun- · tain and previously unbeaten Umpqua Community College. Lane won their Friday match with a 42-10 decision over Blue Mountain. The meet was marked by Blue Mountain I handing a total · of six forfeits to the Titans which decided the outcome before the first wrestlers hit the mat. Blue Mountain won three of the four : matches in which they entered wrestlers. Arlen Rexius kept his undefeated string intact by out-scoring :fyiark Zurcher of Umpqua CC, 24-10, in the Saturday meet. The contest went down to the final match of the day with Lane trailing 1920.

In the midst of a horrendous 2-5 league start it is natural to seek a place to dump the blame for defeat. But as the game is played at two ends of the court there are ~o ways to look at the win-loss record. The Titans have not only los_t five_lea~e games this year, they have won also. a key element m their wms has been Wayne Shelton. . . The multi-talented Shelton is not leading the team m scormg, for that matter be is not even second in scoring. He does howev~r, add an inspirational style of play and leadership to the game which can ignite a team's play. His quick drives to the bucket and the dart• g diving style of play he displays on both offense and defense ~dds an element of hustle lacking in many of the Titan games this "Th h year. . S "( drive better than anything else," admits helton. e coac expects me to take charge and lead the players," he added. It is this degree of team leadership that can turn Lane's basketball ?opes around. Many times this year the Titans have had huge leads m the first half only to see them melt away in a lackluster second half. . Shelton could put an end to this type of choke. Shelton came to Lane via Oregon State, where he was lure? with a baseball scholarship. Baseball is his big sport. He was a pitcher at Philomath High School, but plans to play in the outfield at Lane and Oregon next year. Shelton's style of play fits in well with Coach Dale ~ates style of coaching. The Titans play disciplined offense but will not pa_ss up the chance for a fast break bucket if it ~s presented. ~helton said, "The coach believes in discipline but tries to gear his o!fense to fit the players. He puts a player in a position where he will do the most good." . . • · In Shelton's case, Bates has made the right dec1s10n m P1acmg him in the spot of team leader.

(Continued from page 1) said. He added '' There isn't that com pulsion at' Lane, so it's really up to the student to find his own means of transportation. Besides, the investment required to set u p a bus service would be tremendous." However, the President did emphasize that the college is interested in helping with transportation problems, short of assuming the primary responsibility. _ "It really is within our,,. best interests to support and encourage mass transit. Supporting the Lane Transit District (LTD) system is a better solution than trying to duplicate it with our own bus service,'' he stated. IBas Dr. Schafer also offered two other suggestions that might help students with their transportation problems. "Frankly, we haven't had time to look into it yet, but we could consider squeezing students' class schedules so that they would make fewer trips out to the campus per week,'' he suggested. He also suggested that the college's evening progr4m co~ld be expanded so that more classes could be offered in .l ocal areas away from the campus; t?us reducing the need for evenmg s~udents in outlying areas to drive -all the way into the campus. In addition, th~ Presid~nt suggested that a ride-sharmg ~~ogram recently started at Lmn- I 0 Benton CommunityCollege(LBCC) might be useful at Lane. Each LBCC student wishing to participate in the program fills out a computer card which lists his/ her class schedule and address. These students are then matched by the computer with other students with similar schedules living close enough to each other to share rides. Edgmon explained that he was familiar with the LBCC program and is planning on trying to revive the ride co-op idea again. "I've already sent a memo to Dean of Students Jack Carter and Eldon Schafer requesting the use of the college's computer so we can set-up a car pool information program,'' he added.

The Senate workshop to be held at the LCC leased Heceta House on the Oregon coast was tentatively scheduled for the third weekend in February. The workshop is designed· to improve the working relationships within the Senate and to review the ASLCC by-laws. Barry Hood said that he hopes to bring the cost of the trip down to a minimum by pooling the funds of individual Senators for food. The Senate also discussed financing child care for the children of Senate members noting that $55.00 would cover the cost of child care. The Senate has rrot yet decided whether the families of the members will be allowed to attend, although the polky for Heceta states that 'the occupants' families and pets should not accompany them." The topic of child care was tabled for further study. The Senate also voted to reconsider the transfer of additional funds to the SAC budget for bus tokens. Dave Mahoney, ASLCC treasurer, moved that funds necessary for the survival of SAC including the bus token program (about $1:000), be transferred into the SAC budget from the contingency fund in the ASLCC budget. Hugh Brennan was elected to the position of Senator-at-Large (which allows paid tuition). He stated that more emphasis should be placed upon the fact that the Senate is funded through a $5 manditory fee from every LCC student, and that all money expenditures should • reflect the students' needs. Brian Weller was appointed as the sophomore Senator from the Social Science Department. There are 19 departmental positions still open in the Senate. The Senate will hold its next regularly scheduled meeting Thursday, January 24, at 3:00 in the Board Room. Hoppe. · · (Continued from page 2) lengthened from 13 to 30 weeks. To accomplish this, as well as to curtail summer pl~asure driving, Ms. Mift suggests following Britain's example and going to a three-day week. ''It's true that by eliminating Saturdays and Mondays, too, worker.s would never get a day off to pleasure drive" she says. "But they would only be working a three-day week which has long been the dream of workers everywhere." Ms. Mift's bold and daring plan shows to what ends our leaders can go when they begin tinkering with time in order to save our energy. True, there will still be grumblers - probably the same ones who now say they can't see the sense of getting up in the coid, pre-dawn darkness to turn on the lights and heat in order to save energy. "When it comes to saving energy,' grumbled one grumbler, "there are days when I think our leaders should've stayed in bed." (C. Chronicle Pub.
