Sacred Soil, $12 a Ton

by Art Hoppe
Today marks the first anniversary of our achieving Peace with
Honor in Vietnam. Ever since,
we have scrupulously shared the
fruits of our triumph with our
Vietnamese allies: we got the peace
and they got the honor of fighting
on alone.
Having spent ten years, $100
billion and 50,000 American lives
defending the sacred soil of South
Vietnam, it was somewhat surprising that we failed to leap into
last week's war between Saigon
and China over the Paracel Islands
in the South China Sea.
"We have no interest in the
islands," was all a State Department spokesman would say before

The oil squeeze has
WASHINGTON caused world oil prices to skyrocket. The
increase will add an estimated $75 billion
to the price that oil-consuming countries
must pay for their economic lifeblood.
This is s~mply more than most nations
can afford without inviting economic disaster.
World leaders have been communicating
secretly over how to cope with the oil crimi~
""'- ~=
sis. The United States has taken the lead
in urging the oil consumers to join together
in planning a common strategy.
Most nations have been reluctant to challenge the firabs openly for fear of losing
their oil supply. A few nations, such as
Britain and France, have sought to make
their own private deals with the Arab oil
producers.
But secretly, many world leaders are saying
that prices must be rolled back. Some are
ready to use force, if necessary, to prevent an oil depression.
Apparently, the message is getting through
to the Arab leaders. Intelligence reports,
claim the Arab leaders are prepared to ease
prices.
Even the Russians, who originally enli;J
couraged the Arab price squeeze, are growing

(Editor's note: The Forum serves as an opportunity for members of the LCC communtiy
to express their opinions. The following Forum
was written by Barry Hood, ASLCC President.)
At the present time the population of the
ASLCC Senate is 35. at the beginning of Fall
Term 1973, we had 13 members. I am pleased
to be a member of the largest and most
representative student body in the history
of LCC. With our membership almost tripled,
we're able ta take care _of a hell of a lot
more business than with a membership of _13.
With 13 members, students were not being
represented to the capacity that we now are.
There has been talk about doing away
with 23 present Senate members to bring
the ASLCC down to a potential of 12 members.
My answer to this is that it would create
a totally unrepresentative form of association.
The philosophy behind our representative
system revolves around the central idea of .

a direGt democracy. Each department at LCC
(there are 20) has a potential of two Senate
seats (one freshman, one sophomore). These
department Senators are charged with the
responsibility of representing students in his
department. In addition there are fiveSenatorat-Large positions and five members of the
Executive Cabinet. Individuals for these positions are voted on in ASLCC Fall and Spring
elections as well as in-Senate elections for
incidental filling of positions.
If we are to better represent you m che

In a stirring address to a throng

demanded we immediately send
half a million troops to the Paracels "to show them bloody aggressors they can't trample all

True, the Paracels are a chain

visiting entrepreneurs occasionally scoop up to sell as fertilizer.
But as Senator Flagg pointed
out, "That there sacred soil ain't

Moreover, the Senator said, he'd
seen a picture of the Par acels

he said. "And there must be a dozen or more of them bastions out

The Eugene Wood Co-Op "provides an alternative to buying wood

For three dollars and a day's work
a person can usually get about half
a cord of mixed fire wood.
Generally, Co-Op participants
gather on Saturday mornings at
2464 Roosevelt Blvd. in Eugene
and then head for the woods. (The
Co-Op has permits to cut wood
in specified forest locations).
Lately they have been going out
to the Fall Creek area with a·
two-ton true*, and enough cars to
transport the group. The Co-Op
owns three chain saws, several
sledge hammers, wedges, and
axes, so the wood is cut, split,
and loaded in a single day's operation.
According to Barajas, the wood
is divided among everyone participating, and extra wood is usually donated to someone who has
expressed a need for wood but
who is unable to help with the

Analysis by Robin Burns

Tenants and Adult Student Housing (ASH)
Inc. officials both agree that there have
been some problems in the operation and
maintenance at Ashlane, the student housing
project for LCC students located at 475
Lindale Drive, Springfield.
The problems and possible solutions
have been brought into focus since the recent
Cl:>PIRG report was issued last week charging ASH with "excessive'' expenditures.
ASH operates Ashlane housing expressly
for the benefit of LCC students although
LCC has no financial or operational responsibility to the project.
. The following six interviews (three with
tenants and three with ASH officials) indicate that although there have been severe
problems with maintenance and communication in the past, the situation may soon
change.

Ashlan,e:
old gripes,
new plans

her first apartment to another one at
Ashlane last March, she had to pay another
$25 non-refundable sanitation and administrative fee.
The linoleum floor in her present apartment is starting to "pop-up" because of
water leakage. Her windows leak and her
car has been '' stripped clean right on the
parking lot." Ms. Finch stated, "you can
break into these apartments with no problem at all,'' and added that the vandalism
has been pretty bad.
The outside lights are not functioning
at all at one end of the complex. According to Ms. Finch, the reason is faulty
wiring. She said the managers said it was
the electricians' problem, but the electricians who installed it are taking no
responsiblity.

'/ don't expect anything'

Ms. Allbaugh and son
Ginny Allbaugh and her four-year-old
son have lived at Ashlane for 11/2 years.
The windows and doorjambs leak in Ms.
Allbaugh's apartment and the water leaks
are causing the plaster to crack.
Ms. Allbaugh said that she did not pay
her rent for one month last summer because "the living conditions were so bad."
She complained to the managers and wrote
letters to the home office in Portland
asking that need~d repairs be done: "Last
summer, after I withheld my rent, they
got a couple of guys to pull weeds so I
started paying my rent again - at least
they were beginning to make an effort.''
But, Ms. Allbaugh is now facing eviction
because of money she owes to ASH. She
said that Bob Baker, an ASH representative from Portland, came to Ashlane in
early January and informed tenants who
were behind on their rent that if the money
was not paid by Feb. 1 the tenants would
receive a 24 -hour eviction notice. Ms.
Allbaugh has consulted with Eric Haws,
Legal Services attorney for students at
LCC, in regard to her problems with ASH
and he has sent a letter to the Portland
office stating the amounts she has withheld and listing her reasons for withholding the money. ASH has not yet responded to the letter, she said.
"Everytime ASH people have been down
here I've expressly told the managers that
I wanted to talk to them," Ms. Allbaugh
stated. But it is her opinion that "they
(the ASH representatives) try to keep away
from us (tenants) as much as possible it's really obvious."
Because of her frustration in trying to
obtain needed repair work, Ms. Allbaugh
feels that "Portland doesn't give a damn
about the tenants here so long as they
get their money.'' She added, '' This is
high rent for our budgets (Welfare, ADC,
and government grant recipients) but there
is really nothing lower available." Unfurnished apartments at Ashlane run for
$102.50 for a one bedroom and $124.50 for
a two bedroom, with a limited number of
furnished units available).

She claims that she has had no luck
discussing repair problems with the managers and added that ''from the response of
the people down here I don't expect anything." She feels that it is"very obvious"
that ASH, Inc. is trying to "get a.s much
money as they can out of this place.'
She felt that ''because the place looks so
ill-kept, tenants have no respect for it."
Jim Moore is financing his education
"strictly on his own." He has lived at
Ashlane since last July, attends schoolfulltime and works full-time.
Moore said, "I have done everything
I could possibly do to help maintain the
place."
He recently conducted an informal survey among approximately 40 tenants and
said, "Only about two of them had no
complaints.''

January 29, 1974
Several tenants also stated that their
apartments had been unclean when they
moved in. New tenants must pay both a
refundable $25 cleaning deposit and a nonrefundable $25 sanitation-and-administrative fee.
The Ashlane Rental Agreement
states that '' Tenants have pa1d to the landlord $2 5 as a non-refundable s~itation and
administration fee for the put~ of covering administrative costs antfilrsanitizing
the premises at the end of the lease term.';
The only recourse a prospective tenant
has when confronted with a dirty apartment is to not move in.
Phillip McLennan is one of the two
principal officers of the Portland-based
non-profit corporation that operates Ashlane. He said that "Ashlane is a real difficult. project' ' in regard to maintenance,
repair, and rent collection.
Because Ashlane has been experiencing
so many problems, Ash has hired a professional manager who can '' devote a full
amount of time to his duties and run the
place efficiently," according to McLennan.
He added, "Ashlane is one of our worst
collection problems, maybe because the
management in the past hasn't been as
careful as it should have been about letting tenants' rent slide."
In reference to the recent charges made
against him by Cl:>PIRG, McLennan stated,
"We have made agreements with institutions and the government and so far. as
we know we have not violated any of the mo''
McLennan said that the two company
"luxury'' cars criticized in the Cl:>PIRG
report were originally financed in part by
Bender and himself, though they left the
titles in the company name. He said that
the cars have since been refinanced and
the titles removed from ASH.
'' The increase in office rent was due
to the fact that we have greatly expanded
our staff in order to deal with additional
completed projects," McLennan said, as he
explained that by renting the office space
from a firm owned by himself and Bender,
ASH '' reduced the actual cost per unit
per student."

manager El' Meri ck

Bob Baker is the ASH representative
from Portland who will be in direct contact with Ashlane for the next few months.
He came to Eugene and talked to El'Merick
last Friday about the problems at Ashlane
and possible solutions.
Baker said one of the first steps to
be taken will be to issue a letter to each
tenant welcoming the tenant to Ashlane
and asking for any complaints the tenant
may have. Copies of the complaints will
then be sent to the Portland office and will
also be on file in the managers' office
at Ashlane.

'no later than Feb. 25 '
"We will have people here working on
correcting the maintenance problems no
later than Feb. 25," said Baker, "and
we will set a priority list and deal with
the functional (leakage, heat, and lighting)
problems first,'' he added.
Baker confirmed the report from several tenants - that he had come to h.shlane in early January and informed tenants who were behind on their rent that
if their rent was not paid by Feb. I they
would be given a· 24 -hour eviction notice.
He stated that the action was legal under
the new Oregon landlord-tenant statute.
Ashlane has been renting to LCC stu':lents for about a year and a half. In order
to receive a federal loan, .n.SH had to be
officially sponsored by the educational institution it would service: A.SH obtained an
endorsement from the LCC Board of Education in April, 1971, and received a 1.9
million dollar loan under the federal College Housing Act of 1950. The TORCH was
unable to reach HUD by phone to determine the nature of the agreement governing the receipt of the loan.

'administrative council'
ASH or>erates under a set of by-laws
stating basic operating guidelines and controls. Article 4, section A of these bylaws outlines the purpose, membership,
and operation of an administrative council
for each project. The council is to be composed of three ASH representatives, a student/tenant representative, and a sponsoring institution representative, with the
purpose of keeping the student .1 tenants
and the sponsoring institution ''involved
and informed'' although the operational responsiblity rests on ASH alone. According to the by-laws, the administrative council is to meet "no less than annually."
Jonathon West, who has been LCC's liaison
with A.SH, said, "I haven't been to any
meetings; they haven't called any."
ASH representatives did meet with the
LCC Board of Education in January of last
year, when they discussed possible rent
increases, giving priority to low-income
students, and determining the number of
tenants who were not LCC students.
According to Baker and EI'Merick, however, information and communication will
soon be improving between LCC, ASH officials, and Asblane tenants.

''Celebration'' is the winter production of the LCC Performing
Arts Department. The Forum Theatre will be transformed into a
field of ideological battle as the play is presented Feb. 1, 2, and 6
through 9 at 8 p.m. Tickets cost $3.00 and may be obtained at the

According to Performing Arts Chairman, also the director, Ed
Ragazzino, the play pits Wint~r against summer and good against bad.
''It is hard to explain,'' he said. "Just watch the play and it will explain itself,' he added.
The play involves an Orphan (Matt Pearl) who is attempting to
get back the garden of his ex-orphanage from Mr. Rich (Wayne Ballentyne) Mr. Rich, having felt nothing for the past 25 years, hires
the exuberant young orphan to teach him to feel. The orphan is aided
in his quest by an experienced sage by the name of Potemkin (Dale
Brabb). Rich contends that the world is cold and dark with nothing to
offer to a prooucer of artificial flowers and the richest man in the
Western World. The orphan sees the world as full of hope and is as
naive as Rich is cruel. Rich's girl firend, (Roxy Thomas) becomes the
prize fort he victor in the battle of beliefs. The strange lighting, delightful music and colorful costumes of the play and eerie effects

according to Ragazzino, the play entails a lot of social significance.

Titans grab five -firsts at Indoor
In what amounted to a tune-up
for the otitdoor season, Lane Com munity College's track team captured five first places in the Portland Indoor Invitational Saturday.
Lane's runners, paced by Tim Williams' 4:09.8 clocking in the mile,
showed promise of being a team
to be reckoned with in the future.
Williams' time in the mile, a
new meet and school record, broke
his old mark at Lane of 4:11.1
set in 1973. Williams' time, coming
so early in the year, placed him
far ahead of schedule in training
for the outdoor season later this
year.
Williams withstood a challenge
by Kim Taylor of Linn-Benton
CC and posted a 61 second third
quarter to move into a 5Q yard
lead. Williams then sprinted the
last 440 in :64, finishing nearly
80 yards ahead of his nearest
competitor.
•
Rod Cooper, freshman distance
man from North Douglas, achieved
his lifetime best in the mile as
he finished third in 4:20.9.
In what was probably the closest
finish of the meet, Lane's mile
relay team, composed of Dana
tims, Tim Williams, Rick Nickell,
and Dan Seymour, held on to take
a photo finish win over Linfield
and Oregon College of Education.
Lanes time of 3:28.47 just nipped
Linfield, who finished in 3:28.49.
OCE came in with a time of
3:28.7.
The Titan sprinters, led by Rick
Eatmon's strong showing, came
through with a series of sparkling
performances. Eatmon, a transfer
from Oregon State, finished close
on the heels of Dr. Delano Meriwether, owner of a 9.0 clocking
in the 100 yard dash, and Al
Hearvey, former sprint star atthe
University of Oregon, as he raced

to a 6.23 time for the 60 yard
dash.
Dale Warren, freshman from
Adams of Portland, easily won his
heat of the 60 with a time of 6.34.
Mark Burt,
sophomore from
Beaverton, finished third in his
race with a time of 6.59. Jerry
Zybach, freshman from Thurston,
led with 25 yards to go before
pulling a muscle and limping home
third in 6. 71.
Bruce Clark, a first year man
from Grants Pass, won his running
of the 60 yard hurdles in a time
of 7. 79. His time bettered that
posted by three runners from the
U of o.
Vince Woods, entered in the long
jump for the first time this season, won the event with a leap
of 22-9 1/2. Fred Long, a returner

from last year's team, continued
in his specialty with a third place
finish at 21-8 1/2.
Dennis Myers, freshman distance runner from Sheldon, chopped 11 seconds off his personal
best in the two mile, coming in
with a 9:33.37, bringing him a tie
for sixth.
Cheryl Bates, the only women's
competitor entered from Lane,
took third in the women's mile
run with a time of 5:16.03.
In all, 17 members of the '74
edition of the Titan track team
placed in the meet. This showing,
at such an early stage in the season and against the quality of competition at the Indoor, shows great
promise of power when the outdoor season starts later in the
Spring.

Murray Booth won the heavy
weight division and Dan Nugent
placed second in the 150 lb. weightclass to lead the Titan wrestling
team to a third place finish in
the LCC Invitational Saturday.
Oregon State JV's won the meet
with a team score of 63 while
the University of Oregon JV's,
Lane and the University of California amassed 59, 33 and 10
points respectively.
Lane coach, Bob Creed, cited
Booth, Nugent and Steve Huffman
as the outstanding performers in
the meet. '' an of them did a fine

Booth extended his win streak
to six in a row with three pins
out of three matches while capturing first in the heavy weight
division. "Murray has yet to have
a point scored on him this year,' '
stated Creed. Booth pinned his first
two opponents in the first round
while the third survived until the
second round.
In the 150 lb. division, Dan Nugent lost his first match to the
.Oregon State entry then bounced
back to win his next two matches.
He gained second place for his
efforts.
The Titans swing into action next
Feb. 2 when they challenge Central
Oregqn at Bend. Creed cites this
match as important to Lane's title
hopes. They stand 4-1 in the conference now. "We have a few injuries and if the injured wrestlers
are able to compete then we should
win the meet,' said Creed.

Tim Williams was delighted. '' Can you believe this, a
chick asked me for my autograph,'' he said.
It was perhaps a foreshadowing event in Tim's career.
His autograph may will become as valuable as a gallon
of gas or a wmter peach m the years to come.
Having just blasted a field of premier college runners
with a personal best 4:09 mile at the Portland indoor he
promised much better.
"I could have run 4:05 today. I know I will break four
minutes before May,' ' Williams said. Lest listeners think
Tim over optomistic with only a 4:09 mile to his credit
the manner in which he ran that time should be disclosed.
His first quarter mile was 60 seconds, followed by a
63.5 lap. Tim's excellent conditioning was revealed as he
ran the third lap, usually the slowest of the four in amile
race, in 61.4 seconds. "I thought I heard someone on my
tail with one-half mile to go. I debated on whether to move
out or relax and let Taylor, (Kim Taylor, fourth place
finisher) go by. Seeing only 880 yards to go I took off,"
Williams said.
..,.
Williams lead from the starting gun and increased his
lead over the field from the outset. The race was between
him and the clock as the second place finisher, Ken Woodard, ran 4:16.4.
Rod Cooper, third place finisher and an LCC runner
said, "I looked up and Tim was a little way in front,
then the next thing I knew he was out of sight around the
turn, way out in front.'' Cooper ran 4:20.9, a personal
best. "His legs (William's) were moving like a rototiller and he just chewed everyone up,'' added Cooper.
Tim has lost only one indoor race out of the seven of
his career. To.at was during his first race while running
as a junior at West Albany High School in 1971. He placed
third in the 1000 yard dash.
As for the future, Tim plans to attend the University of Oregon. "If they don't stand up and look now then
they ne,rer will," Williams said of the U of O track coaches.
He is anticipating the possibility of a track scholarship.
"I felt great. I was ready to challenge Pre, (Steve
Prefontaine, winner of the open two mile run in an american indoor record of 8:22) in that two mile," said Williams.
In the near future, Williams may realize that ambition.

Davy Ohmer, a starter early in the
year but a valuable sixth man lately, accounted for 13 first half points to combine
with Smith's 14 and give Lane a 40 to 27

The second half was of the type termed
"physical' by the more tactful observers.
At times the defense developed into a shoving
contest with 45 fouls called during the game,
20 on Clackamas and 25 on the Titans.
More went by unnoticed.
Mike Reinhart maintained 'his reputation

when he and· reserve Mike George each
tossed in 10 counters to keep Lane ahead

Coach Dale Bates directed most of his
praise to the play of the bench, saying,
'' the substitutes have been complementing
the starters very well. We've cut down our
turnovers and are keeping our composure
when the game is rough."
The weekend series raises Lane's season record to 8 wins and 10 losses, and
4 wins against 5 losses in league play.

first time this year that the Titans have
