by Laura Oswalt

Most states are known by their state
flower, state animal, or state tree. In
Oregon, we are rapidly becoming known by
our state disease--HEPATITIS-A.
Large numbers of people who made
contact during the summer with Crater
Lake or who ate in two popular Portland
restaurants have added to the usual rate of
hepatitis-A in Oregon.
There is no specific treatment for
hepatitis-A, such as a magic medicine.
Resting and eating properly are the usual
directions given. The illness can leave one
feeling washed out for weeks, and with
liver damage. So -- if tired, if you have
yellow eyeballs, come in to the Student
Health Service for diagnosis and advice.
The disease can be prevented with good
hygiene. It is transmitted via the fecal-oral
route. In other words, if people handling
food always wash their hands scrupulously
after toileting, there is less chance food will
be the contaminant source. If you live with
someone who has hepatitis, handle their
dishes, glasses and tableware with lots of
sud·s and-hot water before you use them. If
your water or milk source is contaminated,
it is necessary to find where the organisms
are entering the supply so you can
eliminate the source of contamination.
Hepatitis-A is a contagious disease·. Be
aware and practice good hand washing
; techniques, lest you become a statistic
Iadded to the glory of Oregon's state
l disease.

"Humans in Universe."
.
Geodesic means designating the shortest
line between two points on a surface,
especially a curved surface. He has used
this concept along with the tetrahedron, a
solid figure with four triangular faces, in
developing the design used for building
geodesic structures, some of which are
used on polar outposts. Fuller claims the
tetrahedron to be the most stable minimum
structure and that there has been a
geodesic developed that is light enough to
fly.
Fuller, the scientist, got very involved in
his defense of the tetrahedron, claiming it
to be ''the minimum structure of the

any different!''

With a chalkboard at this disposal,
Fuller, also used visual aids made of wood
and cardboard to illustrate some basic
points.
At one stage, the aging inventor after
gaining assistance to put together a
cardboard and bobby pin model said
quietly, ''the children like this very
much."
After a lengthy introduction followed by
a rousing cheer, he humbly responded
with, "I love you all, it's true." At the
end of two and a half hours, an hour longer

book, then emphatically thanked his
audience for their attention. They, in turn,
gave their thanks in the form of a standing
ovation.

Ruiz fails in bid for Veep position
By Scott Stuart

After heated debate last Thursday, the Student Senate failed to ratify Ed Ruiz as the
ASLCC vice president.
In a Sept. 17 memorandum, ASLCC President Len Wassom had appointed Ruiz as
Vice-President, subject fo Senate ratification, "because of this involvement in
community affairs, his awareness and understanding of student problems, and because of
his positive personality." Ruiz was also a candidate for ASLCC president last spring,
until he withdrew because of a change of plan by his v_ice presidential running mate
Laurito DeGuarmo.
In a memo to Len Wassam, Ruiz stated that although he is not presently involved with
any other organization other than the fire department, in the past he was involved with
the Elections Department, Eugene Police Department, Lane County Sheriff's
Department, Big Brother/Big Sister Program, Department of Environmental Program
and the Boy Scouts, all of which are aimed to help the community.
The argument on the Senate floor began with the_question of whether or not community
involvement was the same as college involvement.
Len Wassam pointed out that Ruiz' experience in community organizations shows he
can work with people. Wassam was then asked how he chose his vice president. Wassam
said he had six people to choose from, but in a phone conversation with Ruiz, he was
convinced that he was the best choice.
Ed Ruiz, called on to speak for himself, told the Senate that in his memo, he tried to
state his experience and that he also had three goals he would like to work toward: He
said those goals were: To change the image of LCC from what he said was ''Last Chance
College," to keep the Senate unified, and to form a better rapport with the people to
whom the Senate is responsible. He ended by saying, "I think we can put this place on
the map."
Wassam then queried the Senate what they expected of a vice president: ''I think you
turned down Ed because he hasn't worked with the Senate before," he added.
But Jim Frank, representative from Interdisciplinary Studies, claimed Ruiz was
not familiar with student problems, and that the Senate needed someone who was
familiar with the problems encountered in the past. Frank went on to say he also voted
against Ruiz because he had not compiled the agenda for the Senate meeting as was his
responsibility.
Wassom asked once again what they expected of a vice president, and what criteria
they thought he should use in choosing one. More than one senator pointed out that the
criteria for choosing a vice president was in the Bylaws and Constitution.
Manny Vasquez, representative from Flight Technology, ended the discussion by •
urging everyone to submit their ideas in writing and .(cont. on page JJ

Heceta comment
ED
The Innocent Bystander
7

A number of things have happened as a
result of the shooting incident at Heceta
House. Some good and some bad. But
definitely more bad than good.
Harry Tammen, the caretaker, has been
placed on probation and he now has a very
black mark on his personnel record. That's
good. He could, and many think he should,
have been fired. It wouldn't have been·an
unreasonable outcome. But many people
and groups have come to Tammen's
defense, saying he had been more than
cooperative during their stays at the
LCC-leased coast facility.
Harry Tammen needed to have his hands
slapped, ~nd slapped hard. So they were.
Barry Hood could have handled himself in a much more civilized manner than he did.
It's strange that Tammen gets all the official heat for the incident and that Barry Hood
gets none. Both he and Tammen were at fault for losing control of their tempers. And
that's still granting that Tammen overreacted in a muc·h more serious manner than did
Hood.
There has been a revision in the regulation about bringing dogs to JHeceta. Now the
county regulation, requiring leash control, is in effect, eliminating the old rule banning
•
dogs altogether. That is good.
But the. regulation against bringing family members, including spouses, is still in
effect. That's bad. It's understandable that children shouldn't be allowed at Heceta -it's not a family vacation retreat, it's for campus groups. But group members should be
able to bring the person they have agreed to spend their life with.
But the worst and potentially the most dangerous outcome, is the administrative
directive to enforce the Board of Education ruling against alcohol at Heceta. Harry
Tammen decided to make an issue of this following the shooting incident and has
succeeded.
Many of the groups which have utilized the Heceta facility for several years have had a
moderate amount of beer and wine drinking even members of the Board of Education
have participated in this casual, normal social custom. There has never been any
incidents reported where drinking has been a problem and there has never been any
official action taken to curtail the moderate social beer drinking that has taken place, until
now.
Drinking had nothing to do with the shooting incident, but Harry Tammen brought up
the drinking policy in his report and like a rider on a congressional bill, the drinking
regulation has been given a higher priority as a result.
Drinking beer at a retreat facility where people are meant to relax should not be ruled
out. The college administration has established that someone other than Tammen must
be responsible for the group and that person should also be responsible for ensuring that
beer drinking doesn't get out of hand.
I would hate to read a headline in another newspaper this year that someone who was
staying at Heceta had died as a result of leaving Heceta to travel on th winding coast
roads the 15 miles to the nearest town just to get a beer or two.
That would be very bad.

Ah Apology to Landis

We want to apologize to Leonard Landis for the very short article on the front page of
last weeks TORCH.
The TORCH blew it.
We had, at Landis' request, a story that Leonard had been reinstated, prepared to run
in Tuesday's paper. We do our production on Mondays and on Monday at about 3 p.m.
we found that Leonard had resigned. In the rush to get the revised story ready for
Tuesday's paper we failed to get all the facts. Many people, including Leonard, were
unavailable. We should have held the story unti we could get all the facts. For this we
apologize.
Leonard resigned regretfully. He feels it is an honor to serve on the student
government, an outlook that is sometimes sadly lacking. But Leonard has had one heart
attack and his doctor is concerned about the possibility of another. He may have to
undergo open heart-exploratory surgery in the near future, and it would be hazardous for
him to continue in his office.
Some of the reasons other people give for resigning similar positions are frivilous
compared to Leonard's. The pressure of the job could endanger his life.
So we sincerely apologize to Leonard Landis.

Mrs. Reagan, wife of the former movie
actor, has come out with a stinging rebuttal
to Mrs. Ford, wife of the former
Congressman from Michigan.
In her first public speech ever, Mrs.
Reagan boldly declared that she was
definitely against people living together
before marriage. And you could tell she
didn't care how many votes this stand
would cost her husband.
Unfortunately, neither lady has yet
provided us with any guidance on the even
more hotly controversial question of our
times, one that affects not only the young
but every adult in America:
Should people live together after marriage?
Needless to say, the issue arouses widely
different opinions. International trendsetter Heather (Muffle) Brathwaite takes a
dim view of the concept. "Marriage is
such a beautiful thing,'' she says, ''why
ruin it?"

•LETTERS•

'' All my first five worked wonderfully -except for the third when Ricky arrived at
the church three hours late dead drunk. I
sometimes think the only thing that saves
my present marriage to Biffy is that I
haven't seen him in six years."
Stern moralists, on the other hand, have
generally adopted a surprisingly tolerant
attitude regarding the subject. "If people
want to live together after marriage,'' says
Reverend Billy (name withheld), I think
that's their business."
One noted prelate, however, is not so
sure. There can be no question that
constant proximity of the sexes leads to
temptation, contraception and recreation,''
he says. ''These are issues that should
gravely concern all Christians."
The experts appear deeply divided.
Psychiatrist albert Fitz-Fenster, author of
"Live Alone and Lose Fifty Pounds," feels
strongly that "It is living together, not
marriage, that causes, in emotional1y
unstable individuals, deep psychological
traumas, not to mention fist fights.''

Anthropologist Margaret Maud advoc.. tes a trial-living-together after marriage.

In other business the Senate passed a

Credit classes and degree programs parity

Jones, director of Student Activities,
pointed out that although the Stuent
Senate did not have the power to make the
final decision in Credit Parity, it could

Richard Weber submitted a motion
which was passed as a statement of the

that without a list of priorities the Senate

ASLCC President
fills vacancies
In order to follow student government
constitutional outlines, ASLCC President
Len WassP.n has aooointed himself Student
Senate Board of Education Liaison in place
of .Judy Weller.
The Constitution states that the ASLCC
President shall serve as the official
representative of the Senate and the
Associated Students of Lane Community
College ASLCC. It also states that the Vice
President shall assume the duties of the
President in the President's absence.
It is Wassen' s own interpretation of the
Constitution that the President should be
the one person to speak for the students at
the Baord meetings, and in the event of an
unavoidable absence, the Vice Prsident
should take over.
Wassen told the TORCH he would like to
make it clear that his decision is not based
on any personal considerations or conflicts
of personalities, and that since Judy Weller
resigned her position in the Student Senate
to assume the Liaison position, she may, if
she chooses, be reinstated as Department
Senator representing the students of the
Social Science Department.
Len Wassen has also appointed .Francie •
Killian, ASLCC activities coordinator, to
the .temporary position of Director of
Student Resource Center (SRC).
A
permenant director will be appointed when
the Senate is able to conduct interviews
and discuss the various alternatives for
running the Center. Killian worked
withthe SRC last year, and is familiar with
its operaton. However, due to her position
as ASLCC activities coordinator, she will
be unable to maintain the SRC position all
year.

chases it's tail and can't get anything done.
"I didn't sit in on all those committee
meetings for nothing" objected Manny
Vasquaz. But Weber maintained the
Senate is ineffective without clear-cut
goals. He said the Board thinks the Senate
plays kids' games. Weber suggested the
Senate make it clear that it is not against
the Board, but for the students.
After debate, the list of priorities was
passed. The priorities are:
1. Developing of student support for the
ASLCC.
2. Obtaining parity (or equality of
student opportunity) for evening students.
3. Gaining collective bargaining rights
for students.
4. Gaining recognization of the Student
Senate by the Board of Educaton and the
Administration as equals.
5. Decreasing financial difficulties
connected with ASLCC funds.
6. Establishing a good schedule of class
offerings.
Also passed were a new ASLCC budget,
a new set of Rules of Order for the Senate,
and the formation of an Interclub Council,
which will provide for cross-communication
between campus clubs in d~fferent matters,
especially those concerning funding.
The Senate also entertained a motion by
an evening student, James Banks, that the
Senate formally apologize for the spitting/
shooting incident at Heceta house to Mr. &
Mrs. Harry Tammen. The motion died on
the floor.
A motion by Phi Theta Kappa (PTK)
concerning a William Faulkner film festival
was tabled for at least a month pending
further information, and another PTK
motion for a Halloween Carnival was
withdrawn.

Food stamps
·get licked
Most college students who now receive
food stamps would be cut off from this
program under a Food Stamp Reform Act
proposed by Rep. Robert H. Michel (R-Ill.)
and co-sponsored by several others. The
bill disqualifies persons who are voluntarily unemployed from receiving the stamps.
Among specific classifications that would
be ineligible is '' any household ... that
includes an able bodied adult between the
ages of 18 and 65 ... who is enrolled in an
institution of post-secondary education and
such enrollment is a substitute for full time
employment, as determined by the Secretary ... "
Committee hearings on the bill ar·e

Optometry .students get visual aids
Pacific University, Forest Grove, Ore. -Students considering the optometry profession will be interested to know of the new
Visual Evoked Response (VER) unit at the
Pacific University College of Optometry.
Pacific now has a VER clinic, the first in
the Northwest. The VER will also be used
to instruct Pacific's optometry students in
the appplications and procedures of VER
examination, for basic researach, and for
post-graduate ~ontinuing education courses. The Pacific VER unit is the heart of a
new electrodiagnostic and treatment center
at the Pacific College of Optometry, one of
13 in the nation.
VER is a minute electrical discharge of
the brain associated with vision, whic
occurs when the eye is stimulated with
light or pattern. Amplification and
summation of these 5-millionths-of-a-volt
discharges enable the specific characteristics of their waveform to be evaluated for
any given patient.
For example, a VER examination can tell
if a baby has amblyopia (lazy eye). If
amblyopia is detectd, the examination can
determine if it is treatable, explains Dr.
William M. Ludlam of the Pacific optometry faculty who has developed the VER
unit.
The method is easy, painless, and quick ..
An infant may be held on his mother's lap
in an examining chair in a black walled
room except for a silver-colored screen
covering one wall. An electrode is placed
on the back of the baby's head and another
on his ear.

Then the lights go out and the screen is
filled with pulses of light in differing
patterns of lines and squares. An attendant
places a cover over one eye of the patient
and then over the other. In an adjacent
room Dr. Ludlam is watching a computerized instrument that is linked to the

electrodes on the baby's head.
The instrument records brain wave
patterns stimulated by the baby's visual
response to the flashing lights. Dr. Ludlam
can tell how clearly and sharply the baby
can see the images. The whole examinatioq takes 50 to 60 minutes usually.

What is fear?

Do we sometimes fear

The meeting room was spacious and
warm with a soft yellow carpet, tinted
windows and a high arched ceiling.
Enright and Pransky were low-key, humorous and friendly men. Both were obviously
buoyed by the enthusiastic response they ,
received from an audience that seemed '
evenly divided between the sexes and
largely of college age.
No alternatives to fear were offered.
Rather, there was an emphasis on the
nature of fear and its value.

At a Fear Symposium- specialists
discuss the psychological phenomenon
we all experience.

George Pransky defined fear as an
''early warning system,'' set up as a
defense after a frightening incident in
one's early life and triggered by a stimulus
similar to that which was originally
present. It i,_ a vital warning system,
Pransky said '' after all, it is better to have
a warning ot aanger which doesn't come,
than to have no warning of a danger which

overcompensate in our fear.'' The system
isn't perfect in that the amount of fear we
feel isn't proportional to the likelihood and
immensity of the danger.
The two psychologists offered their
theory and a method by which an
can find the origin of his or her fear. No
amount of rational analysis will bring the
original incident into mind as well as
concentrating on the body and imagery.
It works like a juke-box, they claim, you
put the body sensation and imagery in the
coin slot, then they push the button and out
comes the childhood incident.

Locks.
During a three-year period, 1969-71, a
total of eight mountain goats from
Washington were released in the same
area. Unfortunately, only two of the eight
were males or "billys". One of these was
shot and killed by a poacher shortly after
release. The other was an immature
animal which apparently did not live long.
At least, no offspring have ever been seen
in the area and only three of this original
~roup are still known to be living.
Many people have reported seeing
mountain goats on the cliffs near Multnomah Falls but these are actually domestic

in the Olympic National Park in Washington by a crew from the Washington Department of Game. Fortunately, the group
includes two billys, both in excellent condition. With any luck, the Columbia
Gorge goat population can now begin to

Outld.

The goats were transported by helicopter
from the park to a waiting truck at Port
Angeles on the north edge of the Olympic
Peninsula. The six-hour truck ride from
Washington was made during the night
and the animals were met at daybreak at
Troutdale Aiq,ort by a jet-powered National Guard helicopter which completed the
final leg of the transplant. The whole
operation from trapping to release at the
new site took less than 24 hours and the
animals entered their new environment in
excellent condition.
The mountain goat is native to both
Washington and Idaho but, as far as is
known, the Columbia and Snake rivers
formed an impassable barrier which goats
never crossed. In addition to the Columbia
Gorge introduction, mountain goats were
introduced in the Eagle Cap Wilderness in
1950. That herd expanded and some
limited hunting seasons were held, but the
herd has stabilized at about two dozen
animals, which is apparently the carrying
capacity of the area. No hunting seasons
have been held in recent years for
mountain goats.

define the physical sensation as a bloated
feeling in my lungs and lower chest
accompanied by a sense of weakness in my
legs. The situation I placed myself in to
dramatize my fear was a roof and the
imagery which came to my mind included
some green tree tops at the level of my feet
11nd a vision of the ground below me, its
soft surfaces and hard concrete ones.

These are the coins which operate the
juke-box, and the psychologists had me
going back, recalling a time in my life when
1 had the same physical feeling, or perhaps
the same imagery, or both.
As a participant, I didn't think about it
until Pransky and Enright "pushed a
button" and the new picture disk dropped
onto the turntuable of my mind. The idea
is that the event to which my fear is linked
in my mind might never be discovered by
re-constructing falls from trees in my
childhood. The connection is probably
more vague. It could be a kite flying in the
sky or a pair of red shoes instead. Or a
bloated feeling in my chest.
That the "body and imagery are the
bridge'' was one of the key principles
expounded. A great many of the audience
members seemed to agree.
This information, if it is actually
discovered, is of value to the individaul. If
his or her present fear is uselessly tied to
this dimly remembered stimulus it may be
causing a greater degree of fear then the
stimulus actually deserves.
Fritz Perls, the late renowed Gestalt
psychologist, described fear as "mi,understood excitement." Biologically, fear is a
form of excitement: The rush of adrenalin
comes as a great bubble of energy to which
the individual can choose either to react
expansively (excitement) or by drawing
back (fear).
When the fear can be analyzed perceptively in terms of the relation of the
fear-provoking stimulus to the probability
of the feared event occurring, a person will
find himself acting more and more
expansively and without a loss of personal
safety.
Although psychologists Pransky and
Enright are active mainly in the San
Francisco Bay area, they have been active
in the community for about two years
offering preventative counseling at the
Family Counseling Center. They are
available to conduct workshops and
seminars for local groups. They can be
reached at 342-3051 for further information.

' If we didn't have it, we wouldn't
rvive."
''The body has to have some way to
gnal that danger is near,'' continued
ttrick Fraleigh, an LCC councelor with
perience in · advising people who have
ar and anxiety problems. "And so every
e, from the time they are dropped (born)
d even in utero, has evidences of fear.
Fraleigh described clinical experiments
which pregnant mothers were startled in
rne way and that the fetus was observed
react with symptoms that could be
nslated as fear.
[t would seem, therefore, that humans
born with the capacity to react to fear or

• page• ?-

'' danger signals.''
The way these
reactions are dealt with is then influenced
by the enrvironment that a person is
brought up in.
"Obviously, as a youngster ~evelops,
some people are more explorers, they feel
good about their environment and some
people are not explorers. They're fearful,
they're clinging. They've attached more
negative values to changing environment,
changing things, and look more fearful.
They exhibit more fear behavior."
Fear can be learned at any age, according to Fraleigh. "You don't learn all your
fears as an infant growing up. You learn to
be fearful as an adult just .as readily. Traditionally, people have said, "well what
do is go back into the past and unravel all
that (childhood fears and I think it's
unnecessary to do all that, in most cases."
"My point is that people who are looking
to the past as the only way to change or to
learn are missing the boat. You could
spend eons trying to recollect the birth
trauma, and, from my point of view, you'd
be throwing money down the tube. There
are some situations where going back to
the critical event (one causing anxiety) is
significant, but it's an over-rated thing to
say it's absolutely critical, absolutely
necessary, to unwind the past in order to
deal with the oresent."
''The number one fear among adults is
the fear of failure,'' according to Fraleigh.
He then broke this into three categories:
"The fear of failure to make it
academically or with your work, to make it
with your peers, and to make it sexually.
''There are a lot of people who are
motivated to produce so that they can get
in there and make it. And it may be that
they don't. So there's a lot of that fear of
failure."
When asked if this fear of failure is being
coped with successfully Fraleigh responded with "Apparently, I mean people aren't
falling apart in grand numbers, society
goes on. We manage it."
"I think that when fear is managed, so
that it isn't bizzare and out of proportion to
a point where it's crippling you, I don't find
fear totally negative.
'' y·ou iook at music, the anxieties
involved, that's what puts the first class
performance in balance. You're up, but
you are not so up that you are out of
control. and you're not flat. You've
managed your anxieties. So what I've been
saying is that fear and anxiety, when
managed and within a good range, is
productive."

a phys ician 's vi~
by~ Cris Clarke

"The thing that frightens me the most is that I see people afraid, and they dont know
what they're afraid of," says Doctor Larry Glass, of LCC's Health Services.
A general practitoner, and having worked for the White Bird clinic, Glass find that
more and more people have irrational fears and anxieties: "I feel there are very real
reasons behind everyone's fears, even though many people can't put their finger on
them"
In his everyday encounters with patients, both at LCC and elsewhere Glass sees that
people are having trouble facing their anxieties long before they turn to him for help.·
"By the time they get to me they are already failing to deal with their fears," Glass
says.
Glass attributes much of our society's fears to our bureaucratic-style economic and
governmental systems. He says they tend to alienate the bulk of our society from the
central, or controlling body.
"Depersonalization breeds fear and anxiety," says Glass. "fear is a s,ign of the times
We're in a depression, and people are naturally afraid and depressed
He explained that in this tumultuous time some Americans have seen their economy
draw ever-close to crumbling. Some think their government is more of a vehicle for
certain corrupt political figures to use to manipulate people. Some citizens have
undergone a massive loss of personal identity.
Another fear Americans ·h ave developed is the fear of getting involved. Glass refers to
recent low election turnouts as proof -- perhaps for some people apprehension about
national affairs is a real fear.
"We (Americans) have an apathetic national attitude, and a low motivation level," says
Glass. "There is a real question in people's minds. They're not sure whom or what to
believe in.''
In other words, he says, many Americans have lost faith in their leaders, their system
of government, and have lost the feeling that they can shape their own destiny.
"People have become jaded and cynical over the events of the last five years."
The bleak job market is another fear-arousing fource of the psychological stability of
our culture. "People who have families and other responsibilities are faced with the
prospect of be1ng out of work, and·they are afraid of what's going to happen to them in the
next five years," says Glass.
But jobs themselves have negative aspects which can crate apprehension. Dr. Glass
says that many people today are into really d~ing what _they feel comfortable _doing.
"Not many jobs today will stroke you emotionally," he says, "and you rarely hear of
anyone being praised for waht one has accomplished on the job."
It seems that in these days people are having difficulty in findng professions which are
rewarding. And if one chooses not to work, one is faced with the possibility of having no
income whatsoever: "The system does not allow for people who don't have a job, or for
people who don't qualify for welfare," says Glass.
"Being the most negative of all emotions," Glass says, "our major weakness is fear."
How do we learn to cope with and overcome this weakness?
A 1973 graduate of the Philadelphia College of Osteopathic Medicine, Doctor Glass
feels that a sense of unity among individuals would help.
''During the 1960's I saw a certain unity among groups of people, but in the 1970's I see
people pulling apart.''
But, he says, people can work on coping with their anxieties on an indiyidual basis, too.
"I think people should be as high as possible, and stay high," Glass says, "and if they
would only realize their own potential, they could accomplish what they want in life.
Part of the escape from fear is being personified by people's use and abuse of various
drugs. But Doctor Glass sees this attempt -to reach a higher .stae of consciousness as a
postive aspect of dealing with anxiety, in one sense.
'Tm not advocating or recommending the use of drugs," he says. "Drug users are
trying to get high, and even though they may be ultimately harming themselves, their
drug use is at least an attempt to overcome their fears.''
There are other means, though, to alter consciousness.
"There are many forms of being high," says Glass, "through religion, education and
awareness.''
Glass feels that a better understanding of our bodies and minds will eventually lead to
the defeat of personal fears.
"lt's a matter of challenging our energies in the right directions," Glass says. "I feel
everyone has the ability to overcome fear.''

Health, P.E., recreation instructors
trade new ideas at conference confab

by Don Sinclair
''The conference was a success. Some
people said it was the best ever held. And
they loved our campus ... they thought
LCC was beautiful,'' answered Dr. Susan
Cooley, chairperson for the Oregon Association of Health, Physical Education &
Recreation's 58th annual conference at
LCC last weekend. It was the second time
in five years that the conclave met at LCC.
Over 1,000 school teachers from ail over
Oregon were in attendance in a program
geared to acquaint teachers with new ideas
in sports, physical education and health.
Dr. Cooley explained, "We tried to cover
all the bases with special emphasis in
elementary school physical education,
which is an up-and-coming and long
. 1erdue aspect of PE. There is no reason
why children should get to junior high
before they are taught how to use their
bodies with grace and efficiency.''
All teachers in the state had Friday off as
a professional day in order to attend
seminars of continuing education. The
attendance was not as high as had been
initially expected because of some teacher
strikes which are imminent around the
state, Cooley said.
Dr. Dooley, who holds a doctorate in
Corrective Therapy from the U of 0,

explained that the material presented by
guest speakers was both pertinent and
timely. She was responsible for organizing
the state-wide event.
Registration fees and exhibit fees, paid

by 22 different companies and organizations, netted 'the Association about $7,000
before expenses. This money is to be used
to pay for speakers and program$ in the
future.

after all they are the roots of us all, music•vise. I mean, where would Frank Zapp ...
Well, gulping the last of the beer my
loving editor had paid for, I left the warmth
and security of the College Side Inn and
drove slowly to the LCC performing Arts
Theater.
Maybe I would catch some sleep (don't
tell my editor) during the performance.
I was definitely mistaken.
To begin with, having arrived a bit early,
I persuaded the lady at the door to let me
enter the theater before it was officially
open. The light crew was still making the
final adjustments, but it was nice to
watch--a sort of 'call of the stage' feeling
shivered through me, triggering my
imagination.
I was beginning to appreciate this tie
that binds all music, the state, when with
the first shuffles behind me, the audience
began to filter through the door marked
exit.
A few minute later the last had taken
their seat.
The lights began to fade. Barbara
Myrick, a teacher in the Performing Arts
Department walked out on state. She
seemed a little startled by the opening
applause as she sat down at the baby grand
piano. However, any anxieties she felt
only seemed to add the final flourish to a
well played Sonata in F Minor, Beethovan' s Opus 57. The unanimous applause
marked the finish of her portion of the
evening. Not bad, for a rainy October
night.

following the talented Myrick, Pamela
West-Mann thoroughly trounced my musical biases with Brahms' Intermezzo in A
Minor, Opus 118, no. 1 & 2. This was,
however, only the beginning.
I was caught totally off-guard by
"Harmonies du soir," by Franz Liszt, and
when the ending I felt had to happen did
happen, I was still surprised. Subtle,
subtle.
As if somehow still uncertain of the
victory over my soul, after a brief
intermission, the next performers of the
evening, Frances Ragozzino and Patricia
Nash opened up with both barrels by
playing a duet.
Their ammunition
consisted of Jeux d' enfants, Opus 22,
which boils down to a musical interpretation of a lot of kid's toys--tops, dolls, a
merry-go-round, to name a few. Bizet, the
composer, either had a lot of kids, or was
one himself, for it wasn't hard to picture
the various musical definitions.
As Ragozzino and Nash closed the
concert with a Mozart Sonata and three
Gershwin Preludes, and one of the most
enjoyable music performances I've seen in
this area, I tried to find where my weak
points had been in my feelings toward
classical styled music. Though I hadn't
been too upset about the prospect of an
evening spent as it has been, I certainly
hadn't looked forward to it.
Maybe I had just forgotten that many
things can become exciting if you just open
up and drop the mental blocks.
And although I'm by no means any less
into jazz, I think I might not mind a few
other programs such as this benefit concert
held for the music school scholarship fund.

Wheatfield re-forms

Wheatfield, probably the most popular
Eugene based musical group is once again
at full strength and actively working
toward their opening engagement in about
two weeks.
John Powell, the keyboard player who left
the group in early summer, has returned.

Will Hobbs singing lead in Sam Cooke's

these men have been doing to create their

Titans run for v~ctory
Miller regains winning form

Women's field hockey
team to host O.C.E.

A weekend warrior

Saturdays are busy days for sportswriters--especially in October. I'm no exception.
I'm Don Sinclair, the sports editor of the TORCH. This is my introduction so you'll know
my philosophy, my world, and my column.
This is my first newspaper writing experience. My other world has been radio-I'm the Sports Director for KZEL-FM here in Eugene. I have two sons, a college degree
(pharmacy) and a strong desire to make the TORCH a leader in sports news.
My Saturday started early, reading the morning sports in the 8 a.m. Register-Guard.
Then at the radio station, I listened to the start of the World Series while going over the
final rehearsal for "Sorting Out Sports" at 10:30. At noon I was munching a sandwich to
the tune of six Red Sox runs in the seventh inning and ultimately a Boston, first-game
victory.
From 1:30 'till 4 p.m., I was em boweled in the Autzen Stadium Press Box covering the
Oregon-Cal game which was mentally distressing.
Then came LCC soccer coverage and I arrived just after the Titans had handed
Clackamas another defeat in their first home game.
Then came "Wide World of Sports' on·Tv, coupled with dinner and followed by a
shower and off to cover a social event for Myke Qlemmins. Here endeth the first weekend
day.
This is the intensity with which I cover sports. The theme of this column will be to
cover the LCC Titans, but not exclusively. No sport with possible interest to LCC students
will be allowed to red-shirt. The underlying goal of the sports page of the TORCH is to
help LCC athletics achieve its rightful place of Number Two in the Eugene sports
community. Bigger-time U of O is rightly Number One.
In addition•I offer the sports page to you. I'll publish letters that are responsible and
timely comments, and answer questions publicly that you might have. Mail or drop them
in at the TORCH Office, 206 Center Building, LCC.

LOSS IS THE CAUSE
Winning seems to be everything in sports,but nothing in Oregon football. The Ducks
are much like the New York Mets in their early years: Coach Don Read could easily
replace Marvelous Marv Thronberry in character since Marv could always somehow seem
to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory. And Ralph Petty, ''The Voice of the Ducks'' for
KUGN, could easily take the place of the late Casey Stengel when he semi-describes the
game action in Petty-Patter, definitely an evolvement of Casey's confusing '' Stengelese.''
And the cheering, wine-drinking hippies at Autzen resemble those of Shea Stadium.
Fans seem to cheer a loss with ever-inebriating vigor and wouldn't know what to do with a
win. Ignored like the cross-town Yankees, are our LCC Super Soccer Strikers as they win
again and again. Loss is the cause.
Some out-of-place advocates of winning will soon be calling for the resignation of
Coach Don Read. But it cannot be. How could we have the beauty of the Mets without
our own Marvelous Marv and his ineptness (Marv once hit a home run with 2 out in the
bottom of the 9th which would have tied the score. Unfortunately he missed second base
and beca·me the final out).
And like Marv, Don Read is a fine man, a hellava nice guy to be around. He communicates with you. His philosophy of teamwork is commendable. However, his capabilities
as a gridiron tactician are at best, questionable.
Don Read could rewrite TV history if he were in charge of the Air Force Promo Spot
called, "The Big Play." He designs his plays to mesh with the upcoming defensive
alignment. He'll never take 3 points when he could get none.
But that's alright. Alabama has the football team and we have the environment. More
importantly, you now have an alternative: You can watch the losing battle at the Duck
Pond or you can watch our winning Titans at the aeration lagoons.

Carol Miller got the LCC Women's Field
Hockey team off to a good start last Wednesday with the first goal of the game, but
a stiff zone defense by the U of O confused
the Titania offense, holding them scoreless
for the rest of the way, Oregon winning
3 to 1.
Coach Debbie Daggett's team, with only
3 veterans from last year, is inexperienced.
Many of the women are playing the sport
for the first time. This week's practices
have been geared to eliminate existing
mistakes in the fundamentals. Games this
week will show how well they've done.
The women host Oregon College of
Education today (Oct. 14) at 4 p.m. and
then travel to Willamette University on
Friday. The games will be tough because
both teams represent four-year schools
with experienced players that have been
working together for a long time. It will be
an aggressive challenge for Lane's young,
inexperienced team.

Titans break one

scoring record and tie

John Miller, running like he did last
year, was a scant second behind Gary
Schoeder of Central Oregon and led the
Titans to a convincing victory in the
seven-way Mt. Hood Invitational Cross
Country meet last Saturday.
The Titans eased in with five of tbe first
ten places for a winning low score of 28
while Central Oregon was second with 70.
Besides Miller, Titan scorers were Jerry
Rea (4th), Glenn Owen (5th), Rich Harter
(8th) and Bill Sharp (9th). Young Mike
McGriff finished 11th.
Lane's undefeated team goes to Albany
this Saturday for a triangular meet with
Linn-Benton and Central Oregon, which
will provide some excitement as the
rejuvenated John Miller will again get his
chance to beat Cary Schroeder of Central
Oregon. Miller was nipped by just one
second over the four mile course Saturday,
but at Albany he will cover five miles. The
meet starts at 11 a.m.

Bobby Henderson, combined for 7 goals
and 6 assists between them as they baffled
Clackamas 11 to 1. The 11 goals scored ties
a school record set in 1969, also against
Clackamas and the point spread of 10 goals
is a new school record.
The offensive teamwork of the Titans
was devistating as they set up well and
then passed the ball around, over and
through the more experienced but weakly
unified CCC club.
Jack De brick had a pair of goals for the
Titans and Paul McCoy scored one and set
up Lea with a beautiful assist from the
right side.
LCC Super Soccer Strikes again today,;
Tuesday afternoon, against Judson Bap- .
tist. The match is billed as one of the best
games of the year. LCC is now 2-0 on the
year and Cort Lea has a chance at the
season scoring record. He has scored 7
goals in his first two games.
