:editorial This week we find the Library in trouble--not able to meet the demand for new and replacement books. It's hard to conceive of an institution that is able to build , large auditoriums in a single year, rewrite budgets faster than a voter's opinion and stronger than the entire student body, cannot even buy books. LCC's priorities definitely seem out of order. There is usually some money to be "discovered" for construction projects- -but never enough for student support services. While the College "discovers'' $110,000 in interest-earnings from construction funds, in time to save the new Maintenance Building, it cannot find enough money to support the heart of the school--the Library. Three years ago the Library's capital outlay fund was cut on the eve of a federal grant, a grant that barely allowed the Library to replace the books stolen that year. Since grants are planned well in advance of implementation it seems more than a coincidence the budget was cut just before the grant was received. Possibly, College planning is effective--but selective.. The College doesn't know how many evening students are enrolled, nor what their needs are, but it does know how many buildings there will be in five years. The College is not developing long-range plans for transportation, but it is developing plans for salary schedules for the staff. With this sort of selective planning going on we, as students and as taxpayers, are in trouble. There is no agency, no union, no legislation to protect our interests. There are only increases in tuition, increases in taxes--and decreases in services. It is the TORCH's belief that the only solution Dear Editor: letters to our dilemna is to unionize the student body. We are over 10,000 strong--and can acheive a position of power and respect if we work together. Of course this is the same rhetoric we have heard for years without seeing any significant changes in ; our situation. So what is the answer ? We can start the search for an answer by analyzing our present form of student representation. Student government exists now as it has for nine years-with little change or improvement. Through the years the Student Government has done very little to help the student plight. For nine years we have seen hard-working, well-meaning people run around in circles trying to do good--but doing nothing. Yet these people do work hard, do mean well, and are intelligent and aggressive. It is obviou~ that it is the system, not the people that is at fault. A new form of student representation is needed at LCC. On Nov. 5 and 6 we will be asked to choose new student leaders--to serve in the same old way. The same old way that has never worked. Traditionally only about three per cent of the student body votes in these elections--yet we find almost 70 per cent of the students do not feel well represented by the student government, according to a survey conducted among 400 students during Spring Term. So, again, what is the answer? Wben you fill out your ballot on Nov. 5 and 6 simply write-in a demand for a new form of student government. If enough students make their feelings known, the student government, the College Administration and t he Board of Education will have to take action. And almost any action will break the bond of inertia that currently holds us back and keeps us meek and powerless. • · aa~c lane community college LCC library in trouble analysis by Killian & Loeber TOR CH Staff editor John Loeber the price of their beef you'll find this: news ed~tor Jan Brown You can buy a piece weighing about 1/4 feature ed~tor Mac McKelvey Mashed potatoes, grease and grime, pound.

Box lE Eugene, Oregon 97401 · photo by Jane Robertson A popular quote says, "The library is the university" --and LCC's library is in trouble. Inflation and budget cuts .,,. have hit hard at LCC this year, cutting the Library's capital outlay budget by over 50 per cent. The direct affect will be to cut book purchases by two-thirds. In recent years the Library has spent about $40,000 on capital outlay- -this year it will spend only $19,000. according to Del Matheson, head librarian, the Library spends $8,000 a year to update reference materials, and he says this comes "offthetop' ' of the capital outlay budget. Since books average $10 a piece this means the Library will only be able to purchase l, 100 books this year. The Library will also spend about $7,500 on magazine purchases, but Matheson explains magazines come out of the library's operating budget- -and it was capital ·outlay, not the operating budget that was cut. He says the State considers books capital outlay, and will not allow them to be purchased out of operating budgets. "This isn't the first year this has happened,' Matheson reveals. " Three •years ago we lost all of our capital outlay funds,' ' but were saved by a $27,000 Federal grant. Matheson feels this recent cut in capital outlay will "cause difficulties in obtaining future Federal grants. He explains the Federal government takes a dim view of agencies that rely on Federal funds, "They help those who help themselves," and must show a ' 'maintenance of effort' ' to be eligible for grants. Matheson claims the Library provides instructional support for the entire College, and says, "It's a small library but not a shabby one." But how long this will be true without an effort to purchase new books or make up for losses is questionable. In January of 1973 a book detection system, using a turnstile at the Librar y's exit, was installed to halt a high book theft rate--the same year the Librar y was (Continued on page l) October 22, 197 4 page 'Family planning, health planning' If each family in the United States decides to have two children, by the year 2030 the population of America will jump from 212 million to 264 If each family has three million. children, the population will skyrocket to 444 million, according to Time magazine. A probable world-wide famine could result, along with severe depletion of all natural resources, and a breakdown of society as we know it today. LCC has its own answer to this uncontrolled population growth. The LCC Family Planning Clinic was established to integrate family planning into everyday health care. The Clinic, part of the Student Health Service located in the Health Building on the northwest corner of campus, is open to all students. The Clinic's trained medical personnel give pelvic and breast exams, do lab tests, diagnose and treat minor gynecological problems such as v2.ginitis, urinary tract infections, and The primary lab test is a pap V.D. smear, useful in detecting cervical canContraceptives and information cer. on birth control methods are available. Diana Taylor, head of the Clinic, is a gynecologist nurse-practitioner; qualified to do pelvic and breast exams, prescribe drugs, fit diaphrams, a·nd insert IUD's. She graduated from the the University of Oregon with a BA in Nursing, and completed her education at the New Jersey College of Medicine in She is one of four nurse Newark. practitioners in the State of Orego1c1. '' The philosophy of the Clinic is that family planning is an integral part according health care,'' of total to Taylor. Taylor says that last year the "This Clinic saw 400 new patients: year we should see about 1,000 new patients,' she predicts. She attributes this to the fact that the Cli.nic will be Family planning aid provided daily Library . by Linda Cuyler open four afternoons per week rather than two. Some of the Clinic's objectives are to prevent unwanted pregnancies, and to help students plan pregnancies according to their own desires. Adequate counseling and education are provided so that the service is not merely for dispensing contraceptives. The initial $5 cost for the Clinic covers the pel vie and breast exams and If oral contraceptives the lab tests. are prescribed, a three-month supply is included in the initial charge. After that, however, the cost is ·$1 per packet. Foam is dispensed free of charge; diaphragms are $2 and contraceptive jelly is $1 per large tube. Condoms are dispensed free to both men and women. Men seeking counseling concerning vasectomies are referred to a local urologist because the Clinic is not equipped to do minor surgery, Taylor stated. Also free of charge is the IntraUterine Device. M present the Clinic "It uses the Cu-7 (Copper-7) IUD. is the newest and smallest IUD on the market and has been found very successful with women who have not had children. It causes relatively little cramping and almostnoexcessivebleeding. It is about 95-97 percent effective," according to Linda Paseman, one of the two part-time nurses workingwithDiane • Taylor. Pregnancy testing is conducted Monday through Friday from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. at the Student Health Service. There is a $1.50 charge for the initial Counseling is done by one of test. staff nurses or the doctor, the David Floyd. '' The Clinic is a good starting point for healthy people to learn preventive care so they can take more responsibility for their own well-being, and be informed and responsible consumers," Pase man said. Financing for the Family Planning Clinic comes from student body fees, which pay for the salaries of the nurse practitioner, the lab assistant, and the two part-time nurses. au operational costs are paid for by the $5 fee. "We are breaking even,'' Taylor commented. The two part-time nurses, Linda Paseman and Gail Williams, are recent graduates of the LCC Nursing Program. Lab. hssistant Bob Ivey is a second year LCC nursing student. Last year he was a volunteer counselor and lab assistant, and this year became a member of the staff. Peggy Graves, a community health educator from the University of Oregon, is on hand to answer questions about birth control and sexuality. Eight students from the nursing and social science programs volunteer their time at the Clinic. This year the Clinic will be held Monday through Thursday afternoons from 4 to 6 p. m. Students are urged to make appointments at least one week in advance either by calling 747-4501, Ext. 268, or by stopping in at the Student Health Service between 8 a.m. and 5 p.m. • • • (Continued from front page) saved by a $27,000 Federal grant the entire amount barely made up for the number of books stolen from the LibrSince then the $16,000 turnstile ary. has caused the theft rate to drop from 2300 books a year to less than 300, a savings of nearly $23,000 a year. The turnstile has also allowed the Library to make a daily headcount of users, leading to some surprising figures. The Library sees almost 2500 people a day go through the turnstile, with use increasing steadily. Library traffic has also increased since the Center Building remodeling moved the Social Science Department, with its high rate of traffic, Matheson attributes to another floor. this increased use to increased student space within the Library. But the current capital outlay cuts may change this trend. In order to purchase as many books as possible the Library is cutting back purchase of microforms, miniature storage of reading material. "We can wait until a better budget for these materials," according to ·Matheson. But the purpose of microforms, he admits, is to provide more space. So the loss in capital outlay funds is causing a loss in space--and a subsequent reduction in usage of the Library. "We have a space problem already," Matheson reveals, "book space costs student space.'' • 1 'Flaming Zucchini' cooks at LCC by Mac McKelvey "Gather round me brothers and sisters, and I use the term loosely, for I, the Flaming Zucchini, mere accolyte of Rev.

And so began one of the most unusual performance's ever to spark a sunny fall afternoon on the courtyards of Lane Community College, as tqe Flaming Zucchini, an honest-togoodness fire eater and "procrastinator extraordinaire of Rev.

His act consisted of five basic fire eating tricks: swallowing one, two, and three flaming torches, having a flame dance on his tongue, and spitting fire, Off stage the Flaming Zucchini is simply known as Michael, and his spirit is as quiet as it is aggressive when he performs.

This could all be true if Oregon colleges combine the resources of their academic, technical and administrative expertise to form a Statewide television consortium. The impact of a possible television consortium, as reported in last week's TORCH, may have been overlooked by many who could benefit from its inception. A Statewide alliance of educational resources, whether in media or other forms, deserves to be recognized. For many people the concept of a television consortium is hard to imagine. Our local educational stations, KOAC and PL-3, are as unlike the consortium approach as they are unlike each other. KOAC, as a national broadcasting affiliate, is too large to serve the classroom needs of Oregon's colleges; PL-3 a cooperative between the U of O and LCC's Broadcasting Departments, is too small. To help picture the possible consortium we can look at an instructional television coalition now operating in Several members of the California. California team led a discussion at a recent conference in San Francisco. They represent 34 colleges from 26 distracts transmitting 45 complete halfhour credit courses. Students receive by mail material supplementary and many are sponsored by their employers. As a successful forerunner, averaging 5,000 people per course every semester, they exemplified the academic and economic feasibility of such efforts. They discussed the rapid growth an acceptance of credit-by-television programming--and everybody listened.

He also n~ted that the new format would be of more value in training broadcasting students. "I feel that too much commercial air time is given to entertainment and not enough to community affairs," Lichty said. "We at KLCC hope to help remedy that situation.' ' Lichty went on to say that under the new format, the broadcast students will gain a better understanding of the operation of a radio station. A third reason listed had to do with funding. Being an ; educational station owned and operated by LCC, KLCC is subsidized by the federal government through grants.
