Very sincerely, Caroline (Mother) Mahoney To the Editor: We, Eugene Gay Peoples Alliance, would like to share our feelings about the death of House Bi'lls 2637 and 2288 After legislative hearings which demonstrated to anyone with eyes to see and ears to hear, that homosexuality is a reality in the lives of many Oregonians posing no impediment to their capacity for full and constructive participation in the life and work of society, the Eugene Gay Peoples Alli: ance views with disbelief the defeat of HB 2288 regarding the prohibition of discrimination on the basis of sexual : orientation in state employment practices and, through parliamentary sidestepping, the apparent loss of HB 2637 regarding the extension of the civil rights protective umbrella to sexual orientation and marital status. Character defamation and moralizing vitriol have again succeeded in making falsehoods sound like truisms. Failing to acknowledge that regardless of their decisions, Gay people have historically held and shall continue to hold positions of responsibility in education and government, business and industry, arts and sciences; they have and shall continue to be persons next door, in the office, the classroom, and on the-assembly line they have and shall continue to picl< up - their earnings, pay their bills, mortgages and taxes; the legislature has condemned the Gay citizens of Oregon to another year of jeopardy in employment, housing and accommodation--in jeopardy lest someone discover their sexual orient~tion and concl\,lde from that single aspect of their character that they are not fit employees, tenants or clients. The legislature has condemned the Gay citizens of Oregon to another year of silence--denying to them, their neighbors, and co-workers the chance to know each other as they • really are. The legislature has failed to acknowledge that heterosexual persons are responsible for the sexual abuse of children to a degree so far exceeding that by homosexual persons to make the latter inconsiderable. The legislature has failed to realize that in this heterosexual society people have nonetheless managed to grow up without the taint of heterosexuality, ' i.e. to grow up Gay, and that children who have been and will be taught and counsel led by Gay people honestly • about sexuality, have grown and shall continue to grow to sexual maturity without suffering any misdirection. The legislature has failed to listen to the truth and act with courage, satisfied instead to wallow in the maledictions of the ignorant. Gay Eugene the Undaunted, Peoples Alliance urges all thoughtful people to let the legislature know of their displeasure with its lack of vision and applaud al I those who have worked to advance the bi Ils th is session. The Eugene Gay Peoples Alliance is determined to redouble its • own efforts to the eradication of the shibboleths which plague us to the end that in the next legislative session the Gay Civil Rights Bill will be passed.

They are Adrienne Hull, a data processing major, Kevin Karth, an electronics major, John Payne, a mass communications major, and Mary Thompson, a business major. According to Connie Hood, ASLCC secretary and chairperson of the Media Commission, the 400 dollars was originally intended to be awarded to one person from one of the four departments, but because each of the nominees was "so outstanding," members of the Commission decided to divide it among the four. Lyle Swetland, director of the college Development Office, said the Register-Guard was interested in helping students studying in these areas rather than simply those concentrating on print journalism because of ''the changing nature of newspaper production and the increased mechanization involved." He predicted that next year the full grant will be awarded to one person and more extensive advertising will be conducted to recruit applicants. Hull plans to use her money to "pay off some school loans." After graduating, she intends to obtain employment in the business programming field. Karth's 100 dollars will be used to help him "keep on going to school." He plans to work as an engineer in a radio or television station after finishing at LCC. Payne will use his grant to pay for tuition. He is unsure as to whether he will seek employment directly after finishing at LCC or continue his studies at a four year institution. His goal is to become involved in broadcast photo--journalism, such as producing documentaries for television. Thompson also will use her grant to pay for tuition, and plans to work in the accounting field after graduating.

Department Chairman John Howard,·on the status of the now det'unct student literary and art publication of the same name. , Howard went on to add that he had _contacted Jay ·Jones, director of student activities, and Associate Dean of Instruction Joyce Hops and informed them that -the Language Arts Department would have no further participation in the Literary Arts magazine (now published under the name of Currents, after rejection for a copyright under The Concrete Statement due to a technicality). "Publication costs nearly ran us out of business," said Howard. He also cited "lack of interest or support from the Student Senate" and "student resistance to sales"-due to "their lack of money" as additional factors. ''The Concrete Statement is dead. If some other department wants to pick it up, they can take it. We have no staff member willing to assume the role of advisor to the program," Howard explained that instructors only get one class credit for it and "they put much more time than that into it."' The current advisor to the student publication, Ruby Vonderheit, says simply "Budg·et requests forms were sent to us by SPAF, as they were to all activities funded by SPAF. Business Manager Ed Ruiz, submitted the completed forms to the office of Jay Jones, director of student activities.'' Rod Mack, currently the student editor of "Currents," had this to say on the possible total elimination of the publication: "It's a shame; I like the idea of a student magazine, but it's not selling.'' Questioned on his feelings about the possibility of another department assuming the advisorship of the magazine, he replied "I don't think that it would be a bad idea. We've certainly had trouble with the magazine."

Athletics don't make you look bad. They make you look better.'' So spoke a pretty, feminine, healthy lady, her own living proof. And Cheryl Bates is younger living proof. She's a long-distance runner for Dr. Cooley's team, who describes\ her position as a female among males on the training track. "I'm not 'one of • the guys'; I am, but I'm not, because they take me for who I am, and I think they respect me for what I do ... I'm not out there to compete with them; I train with them because Al Tarpenning, (LCC, PE instructor and cross country coach) is my coach, and there is no cross-country program at LCC for women . . . . I think sometimes maybe I help them, because if they're really hurting or something and I'm running well, they have the incentive to keep going.

On a nice day, there are few things more exciting than to surround yourself with the color of a dozen teams-and the hope, determination and pain that competition bears. But it is a perplexing experience at the same time. Especially when you watch the distance runner. For instance, it's impressive to see the sprinters dig out of their blocks, straining and pulling every muscle in their body to the highest peak possible, flying down 100 yards of asphalt lined with red, green, blue and white flags to a glorious 9.7 second finish. But then it's odd, and bewildering, to see a group of athletes -voluntarily pour their guts out for t4 minutes while hoping to endure 12 laps around the track. The pace is faster than most people could survive for even two laps, or for a good many, just one time around.

The women haven't been involved in athletics too much until recently, but it's like a . mutation type of thing that you go It takes through, like in genetics. awhile for the body to adjust, and each generation gets stronger.'' Cooley gives further credit to elementary school special training programs which have been in effect since the early sixties. "It's called Movement Exploration. They teach all the • basic skills of running and jumping to both boys and girls, before they go into any particular sport. In the past they didn't have specialists in the elementary school in physical education, and now it's very prevalent, for everybody. "Little boys used to play after school, but little girls didn't.

''It's a matter of success,'' says Rod Cooper, LCC's star distance runner who just won the Oregon Community College Athletic Association Track finals in the three-mile. "I tried baseball, and basketball, but I was always in the lower bracket. When I started running around the track I found something that I excelled in. People I used to look up to in other sports I could now look down at in track. They didn't have a choice but to respect me then.'' Jeff Boak and John Miller, fellow three-milers with Cooper and third and fifth place finishers in the OCCAA, said their motivations in running distance originally were similar. "Whenever I played basketball," Miller said, "and threw the ball away, everyone would say 'Oh, Miller ... , " but they couldn't say that in track. "With running, you get what you put into it," Boak added. "In team sports, you get rooked.'' But the other end, the sprinters, are very often pure and natural athletes. LCC's top sprinters--Gary Garnes, Vince Woods, Oscar Casey and Lloyd Hafer--all played first team football in high school as well as many other sports, and knew from the time they were little guys that they were athletes. "You've either got it or you don't," Woods said, inferring that speed is By their • innate and not attained. junior high school years, they all had.· excelled well in most everything they did. "A sprinter will open up the faucet of all his strength and even then won't run out," Cooper said. "There's the difference. We turn on our faucet real slow, and do everything we can to have some left." An ordinary day for Cooper; Miller and Boak will begin with four to six 1 miles in the morning before breakfast. Later in the day they will have their regular work-out, and at least match the miles they ran in the morning by either track work or running trails in the hills around LCC. By the week's end, they have covered 60 miles. When they are in the initial training program, they will run 80 miles a week, or even more. The goal is to develop the cardio-vascular system to its highest peak of efficiency, and to train the mind to the point of endurThis, too, is a separation ance. between the athletes requiring less commitment. It builds a sort of bond between fellow distance men, who share countless miles together, often endless pain, agony, and in the end, satisfaction. "Distance runners don't cut each other down," Cooper said. "It's really like no one wins, or loses; if a guy runs a personal record in the mile, even if it is a minute slower than the winning time, we're happy for him." The distance runner must raise his will above the agonies of the flesh, as most any of them will tell you. And it is here that the finest line of all sets him away from the others: To win he must cross the line where the will is stronger than the body. '' I think my six-mile run at the Twilight Meet was an example of that," Cooper said. "When I first started the race I was nervous because I wanted to stay up with the Oregon runners. And· my legs never did give up, because my mind was programmed not to give up. I refused to say, 'no, don't run anymore,' and I set two school records that day." The sprinter, on the other hand, wields his behavior to his immediate health, and the state of his body at that time. To him, a pulled muscle could be a disaster. A torn ligament could mean a season's end. "Psychological ly, it's an advantage to feel good," Hafer said. They admit to the constant precautions of their ability to perform. Casey said when he used to run in Portland he had to sit in the front seat of a taxi-cab to feel ready before the meet. He wouldn't even listen to music for fear of its effects. "You have to run on the border line of pain,·~ Cooper said of a distance race, ''until the last few laps are in sight." Then, he said, the distance runner has to cross over the line and run on desire. "If I say I can do it, then, I can do it," he said. -~ :_ ~ay 13~ 1 9 7 5 - - - - - - - - - - - - - : : : - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - page5 - \ in Track City, they're running strong· _made the national cross-country team •to travel abroad to England for the International Championships where she placed fourteenth in the mile, out of scores of runners from all over the -- • -world.

Roth did interrupt her program with her coach for a brief stint last summer with Eugene's track claim-to-fame, Steve Prefontaine. He worked with her and another girl, and gave them workouts, but her preference for companionship during those workouts (with Prefontaine she did them alone) sent her back to her first coach, who also used to run for the U of O track . team.

Beside the river, in the parks, even dodging automobiles and billboards along Franklin Boulevard. And many of these same joggers are enrolled in one of LCC's five jogging classes. There are many jog·gers at LCC, however, who are not enrolled in jogging classes at all. Twenty~ year old home economics major Nancy Hepner is one. "I jog because it'just makes me feel better," she explains. "It helps me relax and get my mind off things.'' Hepner said she has been jogging for approximately one year; last summer she ran nearly everyday and during the school year she has succeeded in jogging every other day. "I usually ''that's 8 times do about 2 miles,'' she said, around the track." She explained that she wasn't "all that concerned about speed--just doing it is what counts to me.'' She said during the morining • she will jog through her neighborhood but at other . times feels "more comfortable" jogging at LCC. '' People look at you funny, kids tease you and dogs chase you when you run through the streets,'' she explained. Another veteran jogger at LCC is Evan Alford-:The 62 year old English composition and communi.cation skills instructor has been jogging off and on since 1957, and has been involved fairly continuously since 1970. '' I run two or three times a week, usually from 5 to 10 miles. But I'm not very fast at it," he laughs, "and although that first five isn't too hard I'm pretty ti red after 10." Alford doesn't confine himself to the track--he jogs in the countryside surrounding LCC and along the ftTghway. "Jogging can be boring," Alford said,· but he agrees with Hepner that it Is relaxing. "It also helps me from getting overweight,'' he adds."But what I really like about jogging is that I'm my own master.

"It feels kind of strange thqugh .. l try to· come down when there are only a few people here. I'm slow and people are always passing me." . Walker said her husband jogs and she would like to be able to join him. She said the last time she attempted jogging her dog accompanied her. This proved unsuccessful, though. "I just couldn't keep .! up with him/' she said. and I 'm doing it just for me." Some of those circling the LCC track are quite inexperienced at jogging, though.

I -_.., ~ - '~ . :May13,1975 ·c ha_mpions for the fourth straight year by Kelly Fenley , Al Tarpenning was plenty pleased, but you might have expected him to say something a little different after his Titan track team ran away with the Oregon Community College Athletic Association Track and Field Championships here Friday and Saturday. "I felt personally that we were a little flat today," he said. Tarpenning felt the Titans got off to a slow start Saturday in the finals, and that cost them points they should have had. But LCC still scored 189 points, demolishing all the other nine,colleges competing for the OCCAA crown. Clackamas Community College took second place, and they only scored 102 112 points. It was the fourth s,traight OCCAA victory for Tarpenning in the last seven years. Basically, the Titans troubles centered around a dropped baton in the final exchange of the 440-yard relay. At the time Vince Woods attempted to make the hand-off to Gary Barnes., the Titans were well ahead of the other colleges - a cinch for first - but the two fumbled the exchange and couldn't finish the race. Also, the Titans had two runners drop out of races because And Larry of muscle problems. Goheen abandoned the triple jump when his bruised heel was more than he could bear. But the Titans claimed some outstanding performances despite the flat points. Al Shibley won both the shot put and the discus, and his throw in the shot sailed 50 feet 5 inches for a personal Vince record by nearly two feet. Woods was also a double winner in the ·. 100-yard dash and 220-yard dash, and he also placed fourth in the long jump: After all his total points earned were tallied up, Woods was declared the meet's high scorer with 24 points and went home with the .extra troph_y.

WTLC staff members said the House has been funded and operated for three years largely because volunteers and donors have believed in the concepts of the House as a meaningful alternative to prison. They said the WTLC Board members and its staff have expended great efforts to keep Eugene's only Womem 's Halfway House in operation by continually requesting grants from the state and federal governments, and often by holding garage and bake sales in orde_ r to pay the bills which the House incurs. Because of the many hardships in raising ~nough money to keep staff and to pay bills, WTLC made a contract with the Division of Correc-· The tions on November 27, 1972. contract enabled the House to receive women from Corrections institutions, and guaranteed WTLC $10 per day per woman inmate. The WTLC staff said they only received $3.50 per day per woman, and even with this aid, the House struggled for its existance. Because of the contract, the Division of Corrections believes that the House should be run by Corrections standards and guidelines. The major difference between Corrections guidelines and WTLC guidelines is described by WTLC as whether or not WTLC ought to ''trust and respect the residents of the House.'' The House staff believes it had good lines of communication wi~h the women in- 7~13 °' ~16 Christian Science Club, Mth 214, 1000 Campus Crusade, Hea 202, 1200 OSPIRG, SAC, 1300 Rock Concert, Lane County Fair Grounds Rhododendron Festival, Florence (thru weekend) VVAW, 1850 Emerald, 1930 Gay Peoples Alliance, 1236 Kincaid, 2000 S~17 mates, but that , the Corrections officers criticized this as being too involved with the inmates.

Portland Women's Corrections Cen.ter (under the supervision of Peggy' Benson), and the other two women, who were originally from Multnomah County, are now in the Clair-Argow Detention Center in Portland. The WTLC staff and board members are now trying to negotiate with the Division of Corrections to clear up misunderstandings in the contract. Negotiations were begun last Thursday, May 8 when Corrections representatives, WTLC Board members and staff (and a lawyer representing friendly and very informative. ''We make the tour every two years so each student has the opportunity to make the trip before he graduates," said Bob Ferrand, chief pilot of the LCC primary flight school. Two of the • ·planes flew IFR which means they 1 . were monitored by the Center during .the entire flight. The third plane flew VFR (visual flight rules) and did not use the controlling facility. The t rip, , then, also served as a training flight for the students. Curt Brisbane, a graduate of the ·· LCC flight tech program and son of an airline pilot, visited the Center two years ago as a student. " There have been a lot of changes. Two years ago they were just beginning to install the computer. It was especially interesting to see how wel I they keep track of you--it gives a pilot a great sense of security, especially if you have a transponder.'' The transponder is an electronic device in the aircraft that aids the controller in identifying and tracking each aircraft. Without it, Brisbane said, the pilot must make several turns off course while the controller tracks him to assure proper identification . "It cuts down on human error in aircraft identification,'' Brisbane emphasized . WTLC), along with an ex-con and a Sister of the First Congressional Church gathered to discuss alternati'{eS and objectives of Halfway Houses. There was no mention of the April 22 incident that sent the women inmates back to prison and detention centers. Instead, the meeting was aimed at trying to define what a community-based rehabilitation program intended to do for ex-cons. One Board member stated that the House hoped to help ex-cons make It in the community and to try to give -them a better sense of self-worth .wheo they · come out of prison. They also hope to educate the community on the problems that ex-cons face when they come out of prison. 1(/~14 7~15 Handicapped Students, Art 105, 1400 Softball Follies, LCC Ballfield, 1500 Vets Club, Apr 222, 1500 The Search, Apr 219, 1130 AERO Club, Air Tech, 1200 Teatro Campesino, Villard Hall, UO, 1900 SIIM""', II Shrine Circus, Mac Court UO, afternoon Indian Jewelry Show, Eugene Hotel David Winter·, Guitar and Mandolin, UO Fishbowl Follies Simulcast, KLCC* 2000 ~19 Hal Lindsey tape on Israel, Apr 219, 1130 Herb Class (Eckankar) Whiteaker Community School, 1900
