Board favors UFW, debates tuition hike

The LCC Board of Education's
decision to buy only UFW lettuce
and grapes was greeted by a round
of applause from the audience
at its April IO meeting. also
discussed but with less excitement, was a possible tuition hike
of approximately five per cent.
Eduardo hlanis, president of
the Chicano Student Union (CSU)
asked the Board to support the
United Farm Workers (UFW) and
the Chicano Students in the community "in their efforts to organize for better working and
fair hiring
living conditions,
practices.'' His proposal was for
the college to "agree not to purchase anything but UFW lettuce
and grapes except when this produce is not available." When
UFW lettuce is not available

Alanis asked the college to buy
only romaine or butterhead lettuce.
The Board's support was unanimous and the agreement becomes effective immediately and
applies only to grapes and iceberg (head) lettuce picked by nonUFW workers. Produce picked by
UFW workers, and other types
of lettuce including romaine and
butterhead, will continue to be
purchased.
Board member Catherine
Lauris said that "romaine or
butterhead is the only kind of
lettuce I ever buy,'' and that
LCC was "built to aid working
people. I have no objection at
all. This is a humane kind of effort.''
Bo a rd member Dr. Albert

Brauer questioned A.SLCC President Roger Leasure about whether the boycott had student support. Leasure stated. "We support it in every way."
While the boycott supporters
at LCC have been successful,
the U of O supporters have been
trying -- thus far unsuccessfully -- to get U of O President Robert Clark to approve a
similar ban on that campus.
Clark has said that limiting
grape and lettuce purchases to
VFW-picked produce would have
the effect of forcing all at the university to support the boycott
whether they wished to or not.
Charlene Curry, Board member stated, "I've been boycotting lettuce a hell of along time.

lightened people have followed
for years. I find it difficult to
not support it wholeheartedly.''
In other business, the Board
discussed various ways of raising tuition, looking primarily at
three different concepts. At last
month's meeting t h e Board agreed by concensus to a five per
cent tuition increase, while it
discussed a projected increased
tax base request of Lane County
voters.
The first alternative presented
to the Board from Dean of Students Jack Carter entails continuing the present tuition rate
for students enrolled for 10 or
fewer credit hours, and charging an additional $2 for each
credit hour over 10. He said that
this plan would affect about 60
per cent of the students enrolled
in credit programs and would
represent about an $8 per term
tuition increase for the average
full-time student (average fulltime load is 14 hours).
Another plan is to change the

definition of a full-time student
from 10 to 12 hours. This would
mean changing in-district tuition
to $8.50 per credit or $102 for
full time; out-of-district to $16
per credit or $192 for full-time.
Out-of-state and foreign rates
would stay the same. b.ccording
•to Carter, this plan would decrease tuition rates slightly for
the part-time student. The average part-time student would realize a decrease of approximately
$2.50 per term, but it would increase tuition rates for the average full-time student approximately $12 per term.
The third alternative would
increase the present in-district
rates to $9.50 per credit hour or
$95 for full-time. This concept
would represent an increase for
all in-district students (about
95 per cent of the student body),
and would increase the average
part-time tuition by about $2.50
per term.
Dean Carter commented that

Julia Pommert, LCC student and pre-med major, who encountered considerable red tape before being allowed to enroll in the
Men's Body Building class Winter Term, is having similar problems
with the class she is currently enrolled in -- Men's Soccer.
Ms. Pommert said that Dick Newell, P.E. Department head,
told her that he had told George Gyorgyfalvy, the soccer instructor
to drop her from the class.
She said that he explained that since it was listed as a men only
class, it should be men only; and told her that the school could possibly be liable for any injury she might incur while in the class.,
According to Ms. Pommert, the question he said that the insurance
companies might raise is: why was she allowed in the class if it
was listed in the catalog as men only?
But according to Johathon West, LCC minorities specialist,
"The catalog is not the law -- it's our (LCC's) own instrument.''
Ms. Pommert also said that Newell had told her that the soccer
class was oriented around men and would require a different orientation for women. She added that the Men's Body Building
. class was also male oriented, and it suited her needs.
West pointed out that the "problem" is that Newell has not been

West also commented on Title IX of the Higher Education i-..ct
of 1972, which states, "No person in the United States shall on the

program or activity receiving federal financial assistance." He

Student plans legal action
by John Loeber and Norma Van
An LCC nursing student was denied a term ination greivance hearing by the Board last Wednesday night, and is now planning to bring legal
action against the college.
The request for a hearing came after Vicki
Mchnulty, a second year Associate Degree Nursing (ADN) student, was unsuccessful in attempts
to be reinstated in the LCC nursing program
after being terminated in February for alleged
deficiencies in her clinical studies and performancPs.
Ms. Mch.nulty claims that the records on which
the Department based the termination have been
denied to her, she stated. She also said, "They
haven't given me any criteria on which they made
decisions.'' She also said that the policies of
the Department do not provide due process for
students. At this time her case is being handled
by the Eugene branch of the American Civil
Liberties Union (hCLU).
LCC Presient Eldon Schafer told the TORCH
that the Board did not feel Ms. McAnulty's right
to due process had been violated.
The main concern at this time, according to
Bob Peter"" of the ACLU, is the issue of due process

heads over who will control the

As evidence, they have cited the
new cultural revolution sweeping
through Communist China. This
has sparked a campaign against all
things foreign. Even Henry Kissinger's friend, Premier Chou Enlai, has spoken out against alleged

Everything I have seen, however,

The secret cable traffic and intelligence reports indicate that
Chinese~American relations not

will improve.

pleased over their reception in
China.
Intelligence reports, furthermore, indicate that the new cultural
revolution is completely controlled
by the Communist party; this was
not true in the last political upheaval. Party officials have issued
strict orders, for example, that
propaganda posters are to be put
up only after working hours.
The "revolution,' ' in short, is
not going to be conducted at the
expense of production. Chou Enlai's critical comments can be
attributed to the fact that he is
a wily leader with a survival instinct which rivals Richard Nixon's. And as far as the wheat
rot incident is concerned, the
simple fact is that the Chinese refused to pay good money for tainted
grain.
The China-watching press tends
to put too much emphasis on trivial
incidents. They sometimes see a
calamity in a simple sneeze. This
time, it appears they are reading
the signs wrong.

House line, are trying frantically
to narrow that definition.
A key element of today's impeachment debate centers on the

The Republicans have ordered a

years ago Ford said" no such right

In fact, Ford wrote to then Judiciary chairman Emanuel Celler
lhat the participation of Justice
Douglas' attorney would result" in
a sweeping whitewash of every
allegation as it appears."
The committee's senior Republican, Rep. Ed Hutchinson of Michigan, served on the special investigation of Douglas. ht that time
he insisted it should "include an
investigation into improper conduct."
Now, Hutchinson is singing a
different tune. He now tells me
the President's offenses must be
impeachable, not merely improper.
But the past statements hang
heavily over the Republican's head.

The innocent bystander

Heigh-Ho, another crisis
. by Art Hoppe
Now that the price of gasoline, utilities and
everything else has gone up, we seem to have
plenty of gasoline, utilities and everything else-everything else but the money to pay for them.
This has led inevitably to a new shortage,
one that the noted economist Warren Sugarman
refers to as, "The Cash Crisis.''
In a letter to the Consumer Service Division
of the Standard Oil Company, Mr. Sugarman noted
that there was only so much untapped cash in
the bank accounts of consumers throughout the
world.
Unfortunately, he said, the increasing demands
of oil companies, utilities magnates and everything-else manufacturers, have now far outstripped
the supply. t\.nd, therefore, until new sources of
cash can be developed by consumers, the Nation's
corporations will be in the grip of an evergrowing Cash Shortage.
In his letter, Mr. Sugarman assured Standard
Oil that he was doing everything possible in this
emergency to conserve ·cash. and he wished to
apoligize deeply for any inconvenience the corporation might suffer.
Steps taken by Mr. Sugarman -- a -model
for every consumer - - include:
I -- His home will be open to creditors from
0900 to 0903 daily, but will remain closed on Sundays as a cash conservation measure.
2 --: Creditors with odd-numbered accounts
will be eligible for cash on odd-numbered days,
and those with even-numbered accounts on evennumbered days. Those without numbers will be
considered odd .
3 -- a green flag flying above his home
indicates a limited supply of cash available.
A red flag will be raised when the monthly allotment has been exhausted. A yellow flag means

cash exists only for emergencies.
Mr. Sugarman closes by expressing his sincere
regrets for the long lines of creditors in front of
his home. But he is confident, he says, that the
corporation will understand.
i\nother example of how consumers should
deal with The Cash Crisis has been offered by
a distinguished author Theodore Roszak. He encloses the following printed message with the payment of his monthly utilities bill to the Pacific
Gas & Electricity Company:
IMPORTaNT NOTICE

We regret to inform you that, due to the extraordinary rise in our costs of necessary supplies and services over the past 24 months, we
will be forced at this time to decrease our monthly
payments to PG&E by 10 per cent ...
as we are sure you realize, the consuming
public is a vital sector of our free enterprise
economy. Its capacity to survive and spend is
of the greatest importance to our national interest. We know, therefore, that you will bear
with us during this difficult period, in the full
knowledge that we intend to continue our loyal
patronage of PG&E and to make prompt payment
of your bills at our new lower rates. THANK YOU.
By following such patriotic examples, we should
be able to survive the immediate Cash Crisis.
Moreover, if we can somehow discover and develop
new sources of cash, we -consumers may even
be able to achieve economic independence by 1980.
Meanwhile, let us hope the corporations will
cooperate wholeheartedly and cheerfully. Mter
all, this time it's their cirsis too.

Ells berg v1s1ts UofO
by John Loeber

Daniel Ellsberg, who, in 1971, gave the New York Times
classified information now known as the "Pentagon Papers,"
spoke before a crowd of over 1,000 people last Tuesday at the U of o.
During the speech he said he usually focuses on Watergate, but
felt that he would rather develop the context of Viet Nam(as it
pertains to US policies) in this speech.
He said that the US had a definite strategy -- not just a series
of ad hoc actions -- of terrorism and blackmail towards the population of North Viet Nam, equating this strategy with the recent
Symbionese Liberation army kidnapping of Patricia Hearst, the
daughter of newspaper magnate William Randolph Hearst.
He went on to say that during the Viet Nam War the US dropped
480,000 tons of bombs on Cambodia · and Laos, and that this was
equivalent to the total air war in Asia during World War II. He
said the American people had no more control over foreign policy
than the Russian people had over the invasion of Czechoslovakia
and doubted if a republic could survive a generation of such '' secrecy
and lack of control.''
Ellsberg noted that after he leaked the "Pentagon Papers "
he was tried under the Espionage Act, and wondered that since he
disclosed this information to the US public, if that meant that "the
A.dministration regarded the hmerican people as the enemy."
He then read to his audience from a secret document dated
two days after his indictment, that concerned a conversation between Watergate defendants Hunt and Colson: Hunt said, '' I want
to see the guy hung," referring to Ellsberg, "if it can be done to
the advantage of the administration,'' and that Ellsberg was a
lone-wolf, with the exception of the Eastern establishment. To this
the crowd gave laughter and applause.
In summation, Ellsberg felt there was no individual who would
rtot be subverted by the trappings of power in the White House.
He noted that it took the combined secrecy of tens of thousands
of people to allow Viet Nam to happen.
He suggested that there was a way of keeping a secret war
going in Cambodia, a secret objective in bombing North Vietnam,
and that his Pentagon Papers proved that since 1945 the role of the
US in Asia was not to permit elections or the will of self-determination.
In a question and answer period following the speech, Ellsberg
made the following observations:
• There are more '' Pentagon Papers'' the public needs to see.
Citizens should demand that Congress get the information. He
said that presently we are relying on leaks for information, and
spoke of a bill that the Administration has before Congress (Senate
Bill 1400) that would make actions such as his leaking of the "Pentagon Papers'' an offense punishable by death.
• He was dissappointed by the almost total failure of the broadcast media to cover the "Pentagon Papers." He suggested that
citizen pressure needs to be directed towards the television industry.
• He thought Clair Booth Luce's (wife of the founder of Time
magazine) discredit of Time because of their '' obsession" with
Nixon is a credit to Time's coverage of Watergate, but felt that it
is newspapers that conduct Administrative investigations and put
pressure on Congress to develop information.

LCC Vets Club gives support to benefit increase
Among the variety of topics
discussed at the weekly meeting
of the LCC Vet's Club last Wednesday were continued support of
Senate Bill 2784, a mailing list
for the proposed LCC Vets Newsletter, and the decision to choose
a campus Vet to represent the
LCC group in Salem.
The group received letters
from several sources in Washingto~, co~mending the group and
, thankmg 1t for support of S.B.
2784. Senator Mark Hatfield explained to the office of Veteran's Mfairs at LCC by letter,
that the House of Representatives
has passed a bill (H.B. 12628)
which recommends a 13 .6 per
cent increase in education benefits for Vets. House action also
extends the educational rights of
pre-Vietnam era Vets from eight
to ten years. Hatfield's letter
said.
The increase agreed upon by

Anderson...

both Houses of Congress would
take effect upon passage of the
bill. The increase would not be
retroactive, however, the letter said. Hatfield informed the
group that action would be reached on these bills by the Veteran's committee in early May.
The LCC Vets also hear from
Senator Vance Harke (the sponsor
of the bill) and Senator Bob
Packwood. Both Senators urged
the group to support the bills
and commended them for their
efforts.
The LCC Vet's Club then passed a motion to set up a table
this week in the cafeteria to solicit signatures on a petition to
send to President Nixon to show
support for S.B. 2784.
The proposed Newsletter is

Sending a lobbyist to Salem
to represent the group would benefit all Vets in the state said Nina
Paige, president of the LCC club.
The concept was approved to
choose a member to act as lobbyist, but no choice was made
at that meeting. At the present
time, Oregon Vets can receive
an additional $50 per month from
the state toward their education,
in addition to their federal benefits, only if they are enrolled
for 24 credit hours per term.
Norris said a Vet's car pool
is still in the works and the
office of Veterans Mfairs is still
collecting names, addresses and
departure times for LCC Vets
who want to share rides to the
campus . Norris said anyone interested can fill out a form available in the Veteran's Affairs Office on the 2nd floor
of the Center Building.

Selection of the TORCH editor for the 1974-75
school year will be the main topic at the Media
Commission meeting on Wednesday. Three applicants have filed for the post that will be open
at the end of the term with the graduation of
current TORCH editor Carol Newman.
The three applicants are John Loeber, Norma
Van, and Dennis Myers, all of whom have been
associated with the TORCH for at least two terms.
Loeber, currently TORCH associate editor, said
that his concerns for communication problems on
this campus lead him to apply for th~ editorship.
Loeber said, "lthinkthatone of the most crucial
issues we are currently facing in the world community is that of communication. hll too often
we allow others to direct or control our lives,
without ever knowing the issues . . . I see the
same thing happening on our campus.
"I wni' try to put a newsmagazine in the hand
of every person on campus. a paper that will have
the relevant, usable news of the campus. News about
the events and people who make and make-up
environment -- Students, classified, staff and
administration. No one group can exist without
the other."
Ms. Van calls for organizing the TORCH to
"provide . . . better over-all communication
to student readers.' ' Ms. Van's current job as
Advertising Manager has given her ' ' insight into
the profit and growth potential of the TORCH,"
she said.
She favors more special services by the paper,
such as larger issues, more frequent issues, and
special issues for special occassions, providing

LCC Forum Theater
"Facade' ' the latest theatrical
production by the Performing
Arts Department, is a departure
from traditional concepts of dramatic or musical presentations,
according to director DaveSherman (who is usually the scene
designer for Performing Arts
productions).
Sherman considers "Facade"
"A series of word rhythms chosen for rhythmic sense rather
than meaning to the plot, accompanyed by music rhythms.'· His
version will rely on acting, dancing and facial expressions to provide a unique and inventive staging of the work, he said.
When originally asked how
"Facade' came to be written,
Ms. Sitwell (the authoress) replied. "It was kind of a dare.
Willie (William Walton, composer of the music) gave me certain rhythms and said, 'There
you are Edith, see what you can
do with that! So I went away
and did it. I wanted to prove
that I could.''
'' Facade' consists of 21 short
pieces which will be recited by
LCC students Rebekah albert,
Virginia Blake, Nicholas Breeden
and Rick Huston, with original

"more free space to students to publicize their
meetings and events' ' as well as "regular entertainment features and community notices of events.' '
She commented, "The TORCH has been instrumental in promoting changes in areas of
policies which benefit students and I would like
to see that continue. I think student readers
should be proud of the consistency of the TORCH
and its coverage of student news.''
Dennis Myers, currently sports editor of the
TORCH, feels that, "the objective reporting of
news relevant to the LCC community should
be the goal of a student newspaper. I would
attempt to make the paper even more self-sufficient than it now is. Only when this goal is accomplished can the TORCH become an objective,
reliable and fair news source ... "
He continued, "Anything that involves the students or will affect them in any way should
be covered. . . even if it rubs some people
the wrong way."
The Media Commission meets at 3 p.m. in
the Library Conference room to interview each
applicant. The commission is composed of four
students, three staff members appointed by the
president of the college, one voting member appointed by the administration, a staff secretary
who is non.:.voting, the chairman of the Mass
Communication Department, and the editors and
advisors of the college publications.
The Media Commission is organized for the
purpose of developing, administering and reviewing policies for the operations of student publications.

"If it wasn't for the fact that

Tom Lichty, KLCC-FM radio
program director, was referring
to Norma Van and Jan Wostmann.
Lichty will be editor, Van will
be general manager, and Wostman n will be art director, while
other students will make up the
production staff.
Advertising revenue, primarily from local businesses, is expected to permit the Guide to

Lichty stressed that KLCC
wants to be a community-oriented
station. He feels the Guide will
facilitate communication in the

community. It's a non-profit publication and is furnished monthly,
free of charge, to anyone who
requests it. Interested persons
should write to KLCC.
Currently 900 KLCC listeners

emphasized that the staff keeps

But the exact stipulation on the same evaluation form read, "Passed to next quarter on probation in clinical, with the stipualation that a minimum of C be attained in the next course and a
2.00 GPa be maintained by the end of the quarter."
Peters says these two probationary clauses conflict.

I don't think we should lock
ourselves into any kind of figures until we get more information. He added, "!think we should
simplify it as much as possible
to make the administration of it

a flat rate (to be charged) per

favorably toward "no-reimbursement for 'hobby' classes, ,

The topic of the tuition increase
