SAC announces end of

discount bus token program
While bus tokens were being sold
Wednesday, the StudentAwareness
Center (SAC) notified students purchasing tokens that Wednesday's
sales would be the last.
Jerry Edgmon, SAC director,
told students, ''I'm out of money
and the Senate has refused to give
me any more funds."
But according to Dave Mahoney
ASLCC 'treasurer and chairman
of the Finance Committee, the
Senate did not "refuse'' to fund
SAC but were unable to deal with
it because Thursday's Senate
meeting was cancelled due to lack
of a quorum. He said that the
Finance Committee, in a special
meeting called Wednesday, was
planning on recommending to the
Senate that SAC be allocated$300
"to see them through the week."
It was also decided in the Wednesday meeting, according to Mahoney, that the Senate vote to raise
the price of bus tokens from the
present 15 cents to 20 cents, "so
we can break even until other
funding can be found.'' He added
that the Senate had been losing
$250 a week since the start of
Winter Term for losses incurred
on bus token sales.
Barry Hood, ASLCC president,
described the bus token problem
as '' a baby that has grown too big
for his britches." Hood told the
TORCH bus token sales had been
a pilot program from the start.
"The original idea was for tokens
to cost 20 cents apiece but the
Student Senate voted for · 15 cents
a token, and we've been losing too
much money,'' he explained.
Earlier, Edgmon expressed his
opinion on the Senate's action.
"I agree we're losing too damn
much money. For every 5,000
tokens sold, we lost $250," he
revealed. "However, I don't agree
that they should have cut off the
funds without a better idea to fill
in with. I don't feel the Senate
will approve a 20 cent token program," Edgmon speculated.
.. r..agmon spent all of the SAC
the
funds on transportation bus token program has been the
only thing that ShC has spent
money on,' ' commented DaveSimmons, ASLCC second vice president. Simmons went on to say
that housing and child care are
other areas of concern that SAC
should be dealing with.
When contacted later, Edgmon
said, "They told me earlier in
the term to go ahead and spend
my budget for tokens and that
they would reimburse me.'' He
further stated, "I don't feel the
service to the students has slipped either. There's no way those
people (Senate) can say we haven't
done our job - they never come
in here to see what we are doing ...

Refund pol.icy ruled ambigious
"Sure I'm happy - but there was really nothing else they could
do.'' This was the comment of LCC student Sandi Shaw, who learned
Monday she had won her case before the Academic Council regarding
her ski class fee which was withheld by the P.E. d~partment
Ms. Shaw had dropped the class offered by the P.E. Dept. earlier
this term, only to discover the enitre fee of $75 was non-refundable.
When contacted at that time, Ms. Shaw said the information sheet the
P.E. Dept. handed out led her to believe only $15 of the total sum could
not be refunded. She then took her case before the Academic Council.
The Academic Council met Mondav to deliberate the case and
ruled in Ms. Shaws favor. . According to Jay Marston, vice-president
of •the Council, it was decided the ski class syllabus was ambiguous.
"Hopefully this won't happen again," Marston said, "and to insure
that it doesn't, classes asking fees of this nature will be required to
be more explicit.''
In other business, the Academic Council ruled on a petition that
has been circulated which demanded a special election to ·ratify a
new ASLCC executive cabinet and documents. It also stated that the
petition would be presented to the Academic Council for approval.
In a memorandum issued by Marston, the Council said they would
not become involved in ASLCC matters because, "In keeping with
the opinion of the College attorney regarding the involvement of the
Academic Council in aSLCC matters, it is the decision of the Academic
Council that it would not be appropriate for this body to conduct
or supervise any ASLCC elections."

Grim News For GOP

But the greatest threat to the
GOP is the economic outlook. Food
costs shot up 19 per cent last
year. Fuel costs skyrocketed 20
per cent. Interest rates hit new .
heights, with banks charging 10 to
15 per cent. And prices are expected to continue to soar this year.
The oil shortage has forced
layoffs in th~ airline, automobile,
petrochemical and tourist industries. This has caused a chain re- .
action, which could boost unemployment to seven per cent this •
year. It also means less overtime for those who keep their jobs:

Review by Randy Chase
Way back in December of '68 the Beatles released what
was to be their last album - LET IT BE - amid daily rumors
that the Liverpool Foursome were finally going their separate
ways. And in February of '69 McCartney confirmed the rumors
by releasing MCCARTNEY, his first solo LP.
It's been a long time since we last had an album quite like
these "old" Beatie releases. That was a hell of a long time ago,
and things just haven't been the same since ...
Through five albums now I've followed McCartney. Through
homemade, and consequently sort of empty, MCCARTNEY.
Through the ambitiously over-produced RAM. Even through the
likes of "Some People Never Know" and "I Am Your Singer' '
I tried to notice only '' Bip Bop'' and thus managed to feel
gs
not quite so badly about shelling out the money for Win_
WILD LIFE. And yes, I even got through RED RC6E SPEEDWAY
the day it came out.
Fortunately, along the way, paul (small p) always manages
to offer us a few cuts that were good enough to remind us of
just how good Paul (Big P) was before ... but this did little
more than to wet our thirst for THE Paul McCartney that
consistently wrote things like "Hey Jude," "Get Back," "Yesterday," "Rocky Racoon" and I could keep going on and on for
pages.
At any rate, I'd always thought that there was enough
really good material lost among the first four albums to come
up with one really amazing LP. and, just as I was thinkin'
this, out comes BAND ON THE RUN ... undoubtably the best
thing Paul's done since he set out on his own (and maybe only
equalled by Lennon's first, PLASTIC ONO BAND, as far as
the collected works of the four solo artists go).
BAND ON THE RUN has to be THE Album of the Year ...
whether you consider it a '73 or a '74 release!
With BAND ON THE RUN, Paul has pulled together the
collected strengths from everything he's done on his own and
more than redeemed his mistakes of the past. It's all here:
the nice acoustic rythym; the always just perfectly present
bass· the unbelievably tight production that has long been
the 'trademark of .both John and Paul - except for Paul's
WILD LIFE and John's SOMETIME IN NEW YORK CITY -the piano comin' in beautifully, but not so much that it startf:

The title song '' Band on the Run,' ' serves as an excellent
opening track. McCartney communicates the frustration of the
Paul/The Beatie vs. Paul McCartney hassles through what are
probably his best lyrics of the last five years. "Well the night

McCartney a ·t his best
The frustration theme is found again, this time in '' Mrs.

and then there's "Let Me Roll It." An unbelievably fine

And then, as if that wasn't already more than most of us
pected, we still have the whole second side yet to enjoy.
"Mamunia'' comes across very well - a strong guiding
ass, good acoustic rythym, tight percussion used sparingly,
d a McCartney vocal that sounds better every time you hear
. "No Words" sounds a bit like an old .Beatles song, but I
an't quite decide just what. (Any ideas?) Anyway, it's nice.
A.nd then there's "Helen Wheels," the perfect AM cut;
oves nicely, and sounds familiar, which seems to be the main
riteria for the top forty hit. (Remember how "Get Back''
unded familiar even the first time you heard it?) "Helen
heels'' is a really good song to turn up loud while you're
rivin' along - if you happen to be one of the few still driving.
"Picasso's Last Words" (Drink to ·Me) again uses the bass
nd acoustic sound that brings back memories of those albums
om way back there. Again the really tight percussion. and
fcCartney again displays his ability to use tempo changes
o develop a simple song into a really beautiful work.
And, to bring BAND ON THE RUN to a close, we get a
aste of the Paul (Big P again) that could always rock with the

Review by Harold Hoy

(Editor's Note: Harold Hoy is the LCC Gallery Director and
an Assistant Professor in the Art and Applied Design Department at LCC ).
"National Secutity and other Legends'' is the title of the·
current exhibition at the Art and Applied Design Department of
LCC. The exhibition is of recent paintings and drawings by
Tom Cappuccio, an assistant professor of art at the University
of Oregon.
Cappuccio' s work presents interesting and peculiar situations
and feelings. His images, which are derived from televised
sequences and newspaper photographs of the Watergate Hearings, on one level provoke feelings of disgust, fear and repulsion. It is possible for one to view his paintings on the level
of television and newspapers which gives these paintings a
"mass media'' quality. At times this quality demands my .
attention and at other times it becomes unbearable and turns
me away. There are instances when the images in the work
perhaps due to constant repetition in the mass media, become
banal, devoid of meaning. This banality of the images is not
necessarily an undesirable aspect but can be a powerful tool
as shown in Andy Warhol's work.
His work in this respect bears a likeness to Warhol's
paintings of Campbell soup cans, electric chairs, Marilyn
Monroe, etc: Cappuccio's images are public, yet because,
of their context as painting or art, the images become personal
or private. as in Warhol, we can recognize the image but we
are puzzled by its presentation in the context of art. Cappuccio' s work seems to imply that in the future these images
of the Watergate personalities may become "Pop" images,
much like those in Warhol's work. We can perhaps in the future
perceive Richard Nixon, H.R. Haldemann, John Erlichman,
or John Mitchell as we might perceive Marilyn Monroe, and
the Campbell Soup can.
Although similar to Warhol's work on that level, Cappuccio's
work is to another extreme of Warhol's work in other qualities. Unlike Warhol's commercially produced art, Cappuccio
attempts to be very personal and perhaps traditional in his
approach. He attempts to state his presence, his actions,

his "handwriting'' onto the surface of the painting. The surface of his paintings have a "soft brushed' atmospheric
look although less so than his older work. This soft, tantalizing surface goes well with his sense of value and color.
The strongest painting in the show is the painting titled
"What's Going On'' or "Whatever Happened to John Mitchell?"
The quality of a work being inviting and tantalizing and at the
same time the image being repulsive and uninviting seems to
be strongest is this work. Cappuccio's use of color and surfaces
almost seduces your senses but you are rudely awakened and
jolted by the image.
The painting titled "And Now What'' has an interesting
snapshot quality. The figures in the painting seem to have an
intimate close-up of space that one finds in a snapshot. The
figures are treated as abstracted shapes ·which give the figures
an interesting relationship to the other shapes in the composition. The elusive figure on the left emerges out of the
background reminiscent of Eduard Vuillard's work. Unlike the
painting previously described, the color of this painting seems
to be based on close values as in some of Cappuccio's earlier
paintings.
Although dealing with serious political subject matter, Cappuccio seems to have retained a certain objective perspective
and a sense of humor. The painting titled, "I think, Therefore
I Am the President, I Think" or ''Will I ever Make It to Mt.
Rushmore" is a good example of his outlook towards the subject matter. This painting is a visual joke depicting President
Nixon as heads on Mt. Rushmore. Another painting showing
two suspicious appearing men shaking hands is titled ''Let's
Make a Deal.'" A painting titled "Obscure, Don't Clarify"
or "Let me l\fake It Perfectly Clear" is an attempt to develop
a painting from the words and calligraphy of a sentence. This
painting was the weakest work in the show,, although I think
his idea has potential. Cappuccio didn't resoi ve the problem
of developing an interesting composition from the use of the
words as abstracted shapes. The color of this particular
painting seems to lack the sense of belonging to the composition. Aside from these aspects, the idea was certainly interesting and humorous.
Cappuccio said that he arrived at the idea of developing
a show based on Watergate about a year ago. He said it has
taken approximately a year to realize the show, consisting
of five large paintings and fourteen drawings. He also said
that it was interesting for him to think of developing an entire
show based on a single theme or concept. The following excerpt was written by Cappuccio in reference to the exhibition:
The current events are such that they are not pertinent for today only. They have been in relationship to
our changing institutions and the effect of these changes
on the society in general and on the individual in particular which prompted me to create visual works (paintings-drawings) which reflect but not particularly mirror
the present atmosphere.
It is difficult to say visually what can be easily expressed, through verbal means. I haven't attempted to
translate in paint what is germaine to verbal communication. My paintings and drawings at this time are
purely experiments in an area which I haven't dealt
with before.
So it is with a sense of serious concern, as well as
irony and humor which I began the present work.

ong theater

not. An entire list of all the different
descriptive adjectives of both characters
is unnecessary. What is conveyed by the
play-wright and composer is enough. Fur-:
ther refining and elaborating by those
involved is largely superfluous, for the
characters are not really characters at
all but rather symbols.
Individually, I could find very little
fault with the cast's performance. The
larger-than -life roles of each of the
central figures was handled with both
expertise and finesse. Musically, their
efforts matched their acting. Voice projection and control was perfection itself.
Potempkin (Steve Boergadine) Angel (Roxy
Thomas) and Mr. Rich (Wayne Ballantine)
were consistently strong vocal entities.
Steve Boergadine handled his role as
Potempkin with a good sense of comic
balance and ingenuity. His timing and
stage presence were of the highest caliber
and were invaluable to the entire production.
Roxy Thomas (Angel) in her role
as the fallen Angel resurrected was also
very good. Her delivery was great theater,
strong and assertive throughout the entire
show and a delight to watch. Cast perfectly for her part, Roxy was Angel and
Angel was Roxy. No discrepancy existed
between the stage role and the portrayal,
in spite of the fact that Angel is a satirical character. As a stage person, accentuating the satire, Roxy Thomas lives up
to the part completely, breathing life

Community College (COCC) Saturday. The win was the (ifth in a row
of a 6 and 1 win-loss season.
Central Oregon won the first three matches to jump into a 12-0
lead. But, then Lane's Dan Nugent turned things around with a second
period default over COCC's Steve Greer in the 142 pound category.
From then on, Lane was only to lose two matches Steve Huffman
dropped an 8 to 3 decision, and Ben Jones lost by a fall in the second
round.
Arlen Rexious, at 150 pounds, and Murray Booth, in the Heavyweight class, were both awarded forfeits. It was Booth's win by forfeit
that broke a 21 to 21 deadlock and s~nt the Titans to victory.
Next weekend marks the windup of the conference wrestling season

Coach Dale Bates was pleased
with the performance of the Titans, saying, "I am real proud
of these guys. They met the challenge and hustled real hard. I
wish we could have shot better,
we had a good selection.''
The key to the game, according
to Bates, was the offensive rebounding of Chemeketa. He said,
'' The boards hurt us. When they
score off those boards like that
they're really tough."

Instructors give opinions of copyrigh t policy
Reactions from LCC instructors varied from "It's no trouble(

(CPS)--A man hired by a construction company was asked to fill
out the details of an accident that
put him in the hospital after less
•than an hour on the job.
His job was simply to carry an
excess of bricks from the top of
a two story house down to the
ground. This is his meticulous
report:
• "Thinking I could save time, I
rigged a beam with a pulley at
the top of the house, and a rope
leading to the ground. I tied an
empty barrel on one end of the
rope, pulled it to the top of the
house, and then fastened the other
end of the rope to a tree. Going
up to the top of the house, I
filled the barrel with bricks.
'' Then I went back down and Wlfastened the rope to let the barrel
down. Unfortunately the barrel of
bricks was now heavier than I,
and before I knew what was happening, the barrel jerked me up
in the air. I hung onto the rope,
and halfway up I met the barrel
coming down, receiving a severe
blow on the left shoulder.' '
'' I then continued on up to the
top, banging my head on the beam
and jamming my fingers in the
pulley.
'' When the barrel hit the ground,
the bottom burst, spilling the
bricks. As I was now heavier than
the barrel, I started down at high
speed. Halfway down I met the
empty barrel coming up, receiving severe lacerations to my shins.
When I hit the ground, I landed
on the bricks. At this point, I
must have become confused because I let go of the rope. The
barrel came down; striking me
on the head, and I woke up in
the hospital. I respectfully request
sick leave."
