Jack Krietz, current chairer of LCC's
Business Department, will soon take on the
additional role of Chairer of the Flight
Technology Department.
The new position in Flight Tech, replacing retired Chairer Ron Byers, is an
. interim move for Krietz, ending June 30,
1975. At that time a decision will be
made by the LCC Board of Education
on whether he is capable of handling both
jobs. Krietz had no comment when asked
why he is the chairer of two unrelated
departments--the only situation of its
kind at LCC.
But he attributes his ability to handle
both positions to the efficiency and professionalism of his staff, although he
admits his time has been stretched very
thin and he is reaching the point where
he will no longer be able to handle both
jobs competently without making changes
in his schedule.
•
Krietz sees as the solution the necessity to give up his teaching responsibilities and devote all of his time to
heading the departments.
During his term as Chairer of the
Business Department Kreitz has been instrumental in the adoption of the OpenEntry/Open-Exit program. When the Open
Entry concept of education was first introduced four years ago to LCC's Business

OEA goes into action at LCC
_Faculty negotiations falter-- factfinder called in dispute

analysis by John Loeber

'' Bargaining between the LCC Board
of Education and College faculty has broken down,'' according to Rick Romanek,
president of the LCC Oregon Education
Association (OEA).
Romanek was quoted in an OEA news
release last Friday as saying, '' An order
for 'factfinding' has been declared by
State mediator Ken Brown.'· Factfinding
means identification of the major issues
in a labor dispute by an impartial individual.
After positions of both parties
are reviewed, the factfinder makes recommendations for settlement of the dispute,
although these recommendations are not
binding on either party.
Romanek has stated that negotiations
have been ''shaky from the beginning'
and the LCC Board "has consistently
defied the basic principles of good faith
bargaining'' as required by law.
Contracted yesterday for comment, Administrative spokesman, Jim Piercey,
associate dean of instruction, could not
speak to the issue for fear of hurting
negotiations. He was able to say, "The
Board has encouraged the College negotiation team to continue meeting with the
OEA and attempt to resolve the issues.'
At press time Piercey told the TORCH ,
there will be another negotiation meeting
tomorrow at 4 p. m. in the Board Room
O~-dmin 207)
He explained that basic disagreements
include salary policies and fringe benefits. While recognizing the seriousness
of the dispute, Romanek says the LCCEA
is "prepared to meet at any time in an
effort to reconcile differences" with the
LCC Board.

Mail

boosts enrollment

CPS--Harford Community College in
Maryland is trying a direct attack on
decreasing enrollments: A 16 page brochure mailed to all 42,000 postal patrons
brought 80 applications. Design, layout
and printing cost $2,000.

~ccording to rules and laws established
in 1973 by Oregon House Bill 2263, public
employers (LCC) and employees (OEA
faculty) will attempt to settle grievances
through negotiation.
If negotiations break down the Public
Employee Relations Board ( PERB) assigns
a mediator to assist. If the dispute is
still unsettled within 15 days, factfinding
is started.
Factfinding means identification of major issues in a labor dispute by an impartial person who reviews the positions
of both parties. The factfinder then makes
recommendations.
If within five days of notice of factfinding the parties don't choose a factfinder, PERB will give them a list of five

names. The parties then alternately eliminate names until one is left. This is
the factfinder.
The factfinder schedules and holds
hearings to determine the facts involved
in the dispute.
The factfinder has 30
d'ays from the end of hearings to make
recommendations to end the dispute.
The two parties have five days to accept or reject the findings. If rejected,
the facts are made public after five more
days.
If factfinding is not successful, the
union may give notice of strike after a
30-day "cooling off' period. Ten days
after notice of intent, the union may go
on strike.

Department, 40 students signed up for the
program. Last year the program grew to
a capacity of 500-600 students.
With Open Entry, " There are 260
registration and 260 graduation days each ·
year.' according to Kreitz, " That's how
often we will register or graduate students~ -its up to each person.'
11.nticipating equal success with Open
Entry in the Flight Tech Department,
Kreitz says the idea is now being put
into use in several classes. He claims
the student-teacher relationship in the
Department is more on a one-to-one
basis than in any other department, enforcing his feeling that Open Entry will
be successful.

Traffic hazard .
A new pitfall is being added to the
problems of those who drive to school.
Beginning Monday Oct. 14, dump trucks
will cross the west access road at right
angles to the flow of traffic. The earth
moving operation is a result of the excavation being carried out for the new
maintenance building. Truck traffic can
be expected between 8 a.m. and 4:30 p.m.
daily through Monday Oct. 21.

Trucks will be moving from the construction site behind the LCC diesel shop,
past the rear of the physical education
building, across the parking lot, and over
the median strip in the access road to
the dump site located inside the first
curve of the Gonyea Road.
Students and staff are advised by Walt

drivers should take extreme caution in
the vicinity of the trucks.

Titan kickers blitzed

The Lane soccer team found itself outmatched but not outmanned against an experienced Eugene Blitzer team Sunday at
LCC.
In the 6-2 loss, Frank Rodriguez scored
both Titan goals and came within inches
of a third. His second was a 40 yard
loft placed perfectly over the goalie and
below the crossbar.
A defensive lapse in the first two minutes
of the second half put the Blitzers ahead
4-1. Just minutes before the half Rodriguez had tied the score for Lane at
1 each: with a power burst up the middle and a high bounce over the goalie's
head.
The Blitzers countered immediatelybut
missed an open shot after four good passes.
after an exchange, Blitzer Dick Eigenramm scored from 20 yards out on a
two on one situation seconds before the
half for a 2-1 lead.
The Blitzers capitalized quickly in the
second half on long kicks and effective
inside passes when the Titans were out
of position.
By that time the Blitzers experienced
team began to show excellent inside ball
control and execution to put it out of
reach at 6-1. Rodriguez's 40 yarder
was too little too late.
Coach Gyorgyfalvy credited the Blitzers' experience and 10 game summer
season for their discipline while Titan
miscues were attributed to a mere four
days practice.

Rights amendm ent question ed
CPS--Almost two years after the signing
of Title IX of the Education Amendments
of 1972, which banned sex discrimination
in federally funded educational institutions, the Department ofHealth, Education
and Welfare (HEW) last June issued proposed regulations for the law's implementation and enforcement.
The guidelines address three major
areas: admissions. treatment of students
and employment. They are intended to insure equal access, equal bE:!nefits, nondiscrimination and equal opportunitywith certain exceptions specified by Congress.
While the regulations seem weak to
most feminist organizations, educational
and athletic institutions have been campaigning to water down the guidelines
and limit enforcement prc;>cedures.

The most heated disputes have erupted
over Title !X's application to school
The regulations require that
athletics.
"no person on the basis of sex be excluded from participation in, be denied
the benefits, or be treated differently
. . . or otherwise be discriminated
against in any physical education or athletic program operated by a recipient
(of federal funds) . . . . ''
HEW, however, emphasized that the
regulations should not be interpreted to
"require equal aggregate expenditures for
athletics for members of each sex.' According to HEW the proposed guidelines
are directed at ' equal opportunities not
equal expenditures.' Under these regulations coed physical education courses
are mandatory and schools must inform
students of the new opportunities available.

Sleuth opens VL T season
review by Lyn Bowan

Eugene's Very Little Theater (VLT)
opened its 46th season las t week with
Anthony Shaffer's sophisticated whodunit.
"Slueth' ' which played to full houses on
Friday and Saturday nights and which will
continue to run October 9 through 12,
might more aptly be described a" what did
he do' ' as the plot, winding its way
through many unusual twists, keeps the
audience asking ''what will happen next?' ·
And the answers are guaranteed to surprise even the most artful amatuer detective.
''Slueth' takes place in the country home
of a middle-aged, British mystery novelist who is obsessed with game playing.
It is a story about what ca.n happen when
the line between game and reality becomes
obscured;
"Slueth' is very literary and very
well-written. On the surface it appears
overly wordy, but the complexity of the
language matches the complexity of the
plot, and listening attentively you find
there are not many wasted words. Andrea
first greets Milo by offering him a drink
saying, "I'm one up on you.'' A casual
comment but one that sets the mood for
the games to begin.
The play is a very difficult one to
Throughout most of the play
perform.
there are only two actors on stage at
any one time and the energy they generate is crucial to audience involvement.
Andrew Wyke's part is a particular challThe novelist who is on stage
enge.
every minute of the play is a gamesman.

To him life is a game. His ego is large.
He delights in the mazes he constructs for
himself and he speaks, much as he writes,
in lengthy strings of paranthetical phrases.
Like the plot-lines ofa good mystery novel,

they come together in the end. To be
completely effective, the part must be
played with a certain snap, a certain
controlled excitement, and vigour.
Tom Engle, who plays the English
country gentleman with a nice charm,
does not quite have that extra edge of
energy which would raise his performance

from adequate to exciting. And the first
act, with Ron Wright playing a stiff Milo
Tindle, is slow.
While the second act picks up the pace
and is more involving than the first-especially the scenes with Inspector Doppler (Anthony Creighton)--it never quite
reaches the energy level required to bring
out all of the excitement that is in' ' Slueth' ' .
.o'\.nd "Slueth" is an exciting play. Its
thoughtfulness, wit, interesting character-.
izations and clever plot give it enough
inherent entertainment value to carry it
past performances which do not quite meet
the play's demands.

Fee policy

Policies affecting student fee refunds
and credit for work experience dominated
the Oct. 3 meeting of the Instructional
Council, with staff development policy
debate tabled to a later meeting.
The Instr. Council is made up of all
department chairers and makes recommendations to the College President on
matters of policy.
The fees-refund discussion opened up
with a published policy statement from the
Office of Instruction which alleged, '' The
College refund for special fees has been
discriminatory against certain students.'
The rest of the statement outlined a
proposal for a refined policy on refunds,

set

including the following:
Department chairers will be the
authority for refund of special fees assessed by that department.
Fees are non-refundable where the
department has made off-campus contracts with the fee monies.
Fees are refunded at a rate of
100 per cent the first week; 50 percent
the second week; 25 per cent the third
week; no money will be refunded in the
fourth week.
Materials that are reusable may be
returned and students will be reimbursed
for them.
In addition, departments are required

Theater schedules

Theatrically Eugene will be a busy little
town this term. Presently ·at the Very
Theater, is Anthony Shaffer's
Little
"Slueth.' ' It runs this Wednesday through
Saturday. Peter Ustinov's "Halfway Up
The Tree,' is the VLT's next production
and is scheduled for Nov. 20-23 and 2630. Meanwhile the Eugene Theater Company's series of four Chekov one acts
continues its run at the Scarborough Faire,
Oct. 11-12; and 18-19.
This weekend the University Theater at
1
the UO opens its new fall season with
"The Real Inspector Hound," Tom Stoppard's spoof of mystery dramas. Play
dates are Oct. 10-12 and 17-19. Later
this month UT will bring "Our Town'
to its main stage for five performances;
Oct. 25, 26, 31 and Nov. I and 2. UT's

through channels to the Business Office.
In other business the council discussed
student credit for work experience. The
Council agreed that, "The lack ofuniform
institutional
procedures,
guidelines,
forms has resulted in departments treating credit by experience in a variety of
different methods.'
The Council finally decided '' h maximum of 48 hours may be gained through
related work experiences.'
Requests for credit must be submitted on the proper form to the department for approval on a pass/no-pass
basis.

Editors Note: Last week the TORCH
ran a letter critical of the ASLCC
Senate. Regretfully the writers name,
Jerry Paulsen, was omitte.d as a result
of difficulties in printing. The letter
is not reprinted due to space restrictions.
Editor:
Recently, · Julie Elliott, ASLCC
Second Vice-president, resigned from
office. Realizing the importance of
this position, I felt it was in the best
interests of the student body to fill
the Second Vice-president position.

The person appointed to the position,
pending ratification by the Senate, is
Peter Hale, former ASLCC Student
Rights Coordinator. Mr. Hale has
both the qualifications and the ability
to carry out the duties of the A.SLCC
Second Vice-president. The appointment of Peter Hale (as I see it) was
for the sole reason of getting a job
_
done and no other.
I am well aware of the amount of
concern of certain individuals pertaining to this appointment. I am glad
to see that at least a few students are
watching what's going on. Hopefully
in the future people will take the time
to get all of the facts surrounding an
issue before supporting or condemn-

lnstrutor seeks alternativ
interview by Char/ps M. Potts

(Writer's Note: Jerry Garger teaches English Literature and Composition in the LCC Language Arts
Department, but I met him tromping
through the woods in search of edible foods. A naturalist in the best
sense of the word, his views and opinions reflect concern for necessary
change. His utilization of a bicycle

for tra1isportation to and frorp campus
is typical of his concern for the environment.)

Potts: Why do you ride your bicycle
to school?
Garger: A variety of reasons really.
One, so that Standard Oil and Rockefeller don't get any more of

money than necessary. I'm also
trying to clean up my own act as
s ecology is concerned. Befar a_
sides, it's a rush coming down the
other side.
Potts: How do you feel fighting the
traffic on the hill?
Garger: While inhaling the fumes,
I usually wonder how $580,000 was
spent to add an extra and unnecessary lane but that no provision
was made for a decent bicycle path.
In a _place as advanced as Oregon,
we should be exploring all transportation alternatives to prevent the
Willamette Valley from becoming
another Los Angeles. If we don't,
the choke' will be on us.
Potts: Do you think the people want
this area to turn into a Los Angeles.?
Garger: I don't think the people do,
but the greed-freaks who control
this community want bigger profits
through growth and expansion.
Potts: How does LCC fit in?
Garger: I would say that the school
reflects the views and attitudes that
are ruining the valley. What we
should be doing rather than supporting and feeding the present system
is educating people for necessary
change,
Instead of quibbling with one another
whether kids will go to ·kindergarten in Eugene, we should demand
that we get to vote on whether or
not we want more bombers, aircraft carriers, or nerve gas.
If our views aren't represented,
we should get together an Oregon
taxpayers revolution by 1976 and
withhold our tax money from the
homocidal paranoids pretending to
be our leaders.
Potts: Does Lane have a role here?
Garger: Lane could be a center for
people to combine their education
and solve the practical problems of
our community. We could imitate
an interdisciplinery curriculum using Ralph Nader's methods of idencontinued on page 3 •
