This came about following the last NSA Congress in August 1975. The officers in the NSA could not give the delegates to the lobbying conference any formal voting power without the approval of the The Oregon Rea] Estate Commissioncongress. er recently (February 22) adopted new The formal, binding voting in the organization is reserved for the NSA regulations for rental-referral agencies, incorporating many suggestions made by the Oregon Student Public Interest Research Group (OSPIRG) after one of its research teams found widespread abuse in the industry. Utilization of solar and wind enegy became a possibility at Lane Community College as a result of a board meeting Wednesday night. Following the presentation of a proposal from the Springfield firm of Marquess .Engineering Co. aimed at reducing energy cost but not l!nergy consumption at the school, board members Jim Martin of Springfield and Catherine Lauris of Eugene urged the college to "look at .a broader scope" including alternative energy sources. While the board gave no official approval to the Marquess "energy management" proposal it did ask the engineering company to firm up its estimated costs after receiving assurance from Marquess Engineer Joel Goss that the system would be compatible with alternative energy sources such as wind and solar that "may be down the road." LCC President Eldon Schafer urged the board "not to rush into this (proposal) right now,'' until it can explore outside resources, such as federal funding to cover the estimated $250,000 cost of the system which Goss says will result in an annual energy bill reduction of $107,011. The proposal from Marquess includes heat storing water tanks, piping and controls that would store heat produced by boilers operated during the night when other areas of energy demand are low. This heated water would be used in place of the energy consuming boilers during the daytime thus lowering the average demand rate by which the power company determines the cost. A similar system is being installed in the County Public Services Building in Eugene. The system would also incorporate a "demand limiting" computer system that would turn off some energy systems when other areas need the power, according to a predetermined priority system. This would have the same effect as the "heat storage" system although on a more limited basis. Also the system would eliminate the waste 4 1/2 million BTU's of heat--or enough to heat. the college's four stoi:y Cen_ter Byi]ding according to Darr.el A11y~, LCC electrician--from the college's wafer chiller" air conditioning . Goss explained that the college is presently being charged at a demand rate of close to 7,500 KW per month, which is figured by the peak usage during any 15 minute period. He says the proposed 5ystem would reduce this demand rate to approxitllate]y 3,000 KW and result in an annual savings of $107,011. Goss emphasized that the system would not result in a reduction of energy usage but would simply lower the rate by which the !>ill is figured by smoothing out the peak consumption. '' Any alternative energy system I see in the future is compatible with this system," Goss assured the board. "And this is not necessarily just solar as the Willamette Balley has a considerable period of time when it's cloudy." Lauris said that since LCC is considered to be innovative that the school should pursue the use of wind and sun and "involve the students" in developing alternative energy sources. The entire board agreed that this seemed the best way to go but delayed the action pending further cost and funding information. The board also gave the okay for the expenditure of $5,000 to complete the construction and remodeling plans for the Center Building where the Student Health Services will move by fall term of 1976. This action will move Health Services out of the Nursing, Home Economics and ·Paradental area where it's presently ;housed to allow for expansion of these programs. The next board meeting is scheduled for April 14, 1976. March 1 ruling limits rental fees The rules, effective March 1, place limits on the fees agencies may collect and the contractual obligations of customers, and require the agencies to provide customers with more information about rental listings. Rent referral agencies usually sell contracts which allow customers to look at lists of housing for rent. Contract prices range from $10 to $30, and customers are usually allowed to look at the lists only after paying the fee, according to OSPIRG staff member Roger Auerbach. The Real Estate Commissioner adopted OSPIRG's proposal to allow a customer to opt out of a contract after 30 days, permitting her/him to apply for a refund at that time. Under the rules originally proposed by the commissioner, a customer had to wait until the end of the contract period. Since rent referral contracts may run for as long as two years, some The NSA headquarters in Washington customers would have had to wait an unreasonably long time before requesting D.C. photo by Mike McLain . a refund. OSPIRG also recommended the Real Estate Commissioner limit the service charge an agency can collect. In the event the customer does not find a house through the agency, the rules proposed by the commissioner a11owed the customer to ask for a refund of the contract fee, minus the agency's service charge, but did not limit the amount of this charge. The adopted rules limit the service charge to $5, or one-third of the agency's fu]l fee, whichever is greater. The commissioner also adopted OSPIRG 's proposal to greatly expand the list of information the rental agency provides customers about each house. The list now includes information on all deposits or pre-payments required by the landlord, whether leases are offered or required, and restrictions on pets, children, occupants or activities. Development Fund drive underway The we~k-Iong Lane Community College Development 'fund Community Support Campaign to help replenish money for scholarships and emergency student loans began Monday, March 29. The campaign, scheduled for March 29 through April 4, began with a kick-off breakfast on Monday at the Eugene Hotel. Volunteers, led by honorary co-director Deina Jones of Pacific Northwest Bell and Les Anderson, Mayor of Eugene, hope to raise about $15,000. Some $12,000 was !raised during last years effort. Funds fro:n the Development Fund fill numerous needs on campus, from providing travel money for athletes to attend national competitions to purchasing a ballet bar for the gymnasium. Development monies buy automotive and appliance repair training equipment, help to fund curriculum writing projects in instr1:1ctional areas, buy library books, and provided equipment and materials for locating a donated sculpture on campus. During the campaign, some 100 volunteers hope to make personal visits to nearly 500 people throughout the college district. In addition, some 1,500 requests will be mailed to various people in local communities. AH donations are tax-deductible and may be designated for a particular activity. To make a contribution, simply write a check to the Lane Community Colleee Development Fund and mail it to that office ~~c. • ,,, ------------ v..,"TCIZ·-----------------March 31, 1976 page 2 - - - - - - - If you ask a stupid question, do you get a stupid question? Salmon fishing restricted Faced with a federal court order and ·the prospects for continued weak runs of chinook salmon and summer steelhead in the Columbia River, the Fish and Wildlife Commission at its March 19 hearing imposed restrictions that will affect both commercial and sport fishermen. Biologists expect returns of salmon and steelhead destined for the upper Columbia River and its tributaries to be as weak or weaker than the poor runs last year. In view of this the Commission adopted a closure on chinook salmon angling in the Columbia, Deschutes, and Snake rivers which will go into effect on April 1. On the Columbia the closure will extend until July 31 below Bonneville Dam and August 7 above that point. The Deschutes will • remain closed through July 31 and the Snake River and its tributaries will be closed through December 31. The closure includes jack chinook salmon (those 12 to 20 inches in length) as well as adult chinook salmon. Summer steelhead angling will also close in the main stem Columbia, Snake, and Snake River tributaries on April 1. That closure will continue through September 30 below Bonneville Dam and through the end of 1976 above that point. The Willamette and Deschutes river are not closed to summer steelhead angling. Restrictions on ocean fishing were also adopted in order to comply with Federal Circuit Court Judge Belloni's decision which requires agencies to provide Columbia River treaty Indians with an opportunity to fish for at least SO per cent of the salmon and steelhead destined for the upper river. Ocean sport salmon angling will begin NSA by An Hoppe on May 1 instead of the April to date listed in the 19'/6 regulations synopsis: In addition, ·1:ht! minimum size limits for _sport-caught salmon nortft of TillamoQJc Head were changed and are now the same as· those set by Washington. Chinook salmon must be at least 24 inches and coho salmon 16 inches. The minimum for both species previously was 20 inches. No minimum size restrictions are in effect south of Tillamook Head. North of Tillamook Head the commercial ocean troll salmon season will open on May 1 for chinook salmon and extend through May 31. After a full-month June closure the season will reopen on July 1 and extend through September 15 for both chinook and coho salmon. The seasons amount to a three-month reduction in the chinook season and a coho season two months shorter than last year. South of Tillamook Head the comtnercial trout season for chinook salmon will begin on May 1 and extend through October 31. The commercial coho season will begin on June 15, the same as last year, and extend through October 31. Minimum sizes for commercially caught salmon off the Oregon coast were set at 26 inches for chinook and 16 inches for coho. The Commission also redefined the method by which commercially caught salmon . must be measured. The Commission set the regulations following a public hearing which lasted more than 12 hours last Friday. More than 500 persons packed the hearing hall at the Western Forestry Center, many standing because of the crowded conditions. Commercial fishermen from California and Washington, as well as Oregon, were present. mean in En~dish? Q---Do you expect the Government to provide all the answers?

After the first class, I was approached by a TORCH rep0rter who asked, among other questions, why I was breaking the boycott of women's studies classes. I felt rather foolish because, although I was aware of controversy existing at Lane, I had not taken the time to become familar with the details and had not even thought of it when I agreed to do the presentations. I • returned to the second class feeling highly uneasy. I brought up the issue of the boycott in the second class, but at such a late point in the session that discussion was impossible. Since that time, I have read the article about Women's Studies in " Women ' s Press" and I regret my participation in the classes. Although much of the controversy seems cloudy, certain facts do stand out: a feminist instructor was edged out of her job with at least the tacit approval of another feminist, who then took over her teaching duties.

Approxirn<!,tely 15 minutes of women dancing, using skill and chain saws, cooking, knitting, and other activities documented th·e lives of many identified women. Hayfeild, (self chosen name) a University of Oregon broadcasting major, produced the tape in attempts to "demystify" lesbianism. "It's important to see women leading strong determined lives," she said, "and to validate any misconceptions that others have of Jesbians." After planning and making "What Lesbians Do," for a year and a half, Hayfeild, who will graduate from the U of O in June, used the deadline of a local film and video tape festival for releasing her completed tape. Hayfeild has shown the tape locally since February, and would like as many people as possible to see the tape. She can be contacted through the Division of Broadcasting Services at the Uni:rersity of Oregon. Leah Hess, a part-time gardener and an office worker at the University of Oregon, lead the panel discussion. Hess, who has openly expressed her sexuality for the past three years, frequently conducts local panel discussions. "Lesbianism is a positive thing,'' says Hess, who does not want to be defined by society's definition of a lesbian.

The April 6 meeting will be at 12:00 in room _2 13, Apprenticeship; the April 7 meeting at 3:00 in room 215, Apprenticeship. Topics for discussion will be: *the Oregon home loan bill for veteran~ *tuition increases *upcoming legislation that will affect veterans, including the proposed Oregon bonus bill and the removal of delimitation dates for u~ing VA benefits. (Note: Of LCC's 2,000 veterans, some 23 per cent will lose their entitlements as of May 31 this year under· provisions of the present law. * an upgrading of bad discharges. Plans will also be made at the meetings for the Veterans Association's spring kegger. New and returning students should be aware of the Book Exchange operated by the Veterans. Located in the Veterans Affairs Office, the Book Exchange is a file of used books for sale and books sought by students who don't want to pay the prices in the Bookstore. Students se11ing their books through the exchange may get a greater return on their used texts than by reselling them to the Bookstore.

Hess said she ''felt strange at crossing the boycott,'' and admitted she was naive to the issues involved. Hayfeild, vaguely aware of the issues, felt by denying others the exposure to realistic lesbian concepts, was justifying nothing.

Conflicting views over the Women's Studies Department have made attempts to bring women from within the community on campus difficult. An earlier attempt by Women Studies instructors to organize a lesbian panel discussion failed when community women refused to come on campus in support of the existing boycott. Dissention over the Women's Studies 'has placed women in two catagories; those choosing to support the boycott and those in opposition. SWING INTO SPRING WITH LCC'S FOOD SERVICE FE.STIVAL.

Hess also stressed .that women need to rely on self more, with the help of other women as opposed to being so dependent on a man. She feels lesbianism is seen by many women under male values as something negative, making a lesbian seem less of a woman. '' A way men keep lesbian women down is by calling them dyke," said Hess, ex.plaining the_ importance for women to see lesbianism as a total healthy aspect of life. Hess says she hopes to change opinions, misconceptions, and stereotypes often attributed to lesbians. Stu.d ents in both classes responded favorably to the tape and discussion, asking questions they previously had no place to direct. The panel answered these question as well as exploring both myth and fact concerning lesbian issues.

Freeman is the director of the Cottage Grove Outreach Center, which has experienced tremendous growth in the last four or five years. The Oakridge and Junction City centers, run by Ross Lemen and Max Strauss respectively, are beginning to grow like the Cottage Grove Center did four years ago, she said. The key to the growth process, feels Freeman, is the interest people in these communities have shown for learning more, whether in credit or Adult Continuing Education courses. All of the centers offer some credit courses, with locally talented instructors. Thus, the communities have input into both the learning and the teaching process. "Whenever there is enough interest to hold a class, we' offer it," said Max Strauss, Junction City coordinator. None of the coordinators felt that there was any Siuslaw Skills Center dedicated by Cindy Tyndall The Siuslaw Skills Center, LCC's Outreach Center in Florence, was dedicated Sunday in a ceremon'y conducted by Al Owens, co-ordinator. The ceremony included speeches by Florence Mayor Don Bowman, outgoing tCC Board of Education Chairman Dr. Albert Brauer and LCC President Dr. Eldon Schafer. The center is the result of a "vision of a number of people 10 years ago," said Dr. Brauer. Its purpose is to bring education to people who don't live within commuting distance of the Central Campus, he continued. Dr. Schafer called the center a '' prototype" of community college Adult EducaIt is an "innovative tion centers. experience," he said, "to build a center where the people are." Dr. Schafer commented on the innovative programs at the center that allow students to "learn at their own pace." He stated that eventually students will be able to pick their own fime and their'own course upon registration. "The center's curriculum is designed to suit the needs of the students," he continued. There are 500 students registered for classes at the center this quarter, representing 100 percent growth over tne last four years, according to Dr. Schafer. Students request and ~ake courses ''because they want them,'' he said. Dr. Schafer pointed out that there are 5,000 to 6,000 people in Lane County who can't even read or write. "Adults needing help won't go away," he said. And "learning doesn't stop at the age of 22," said Dr. Schafer. "In 10 years the average adult in the United States will be 50." The planners for the Siuslaw Skills Center hope that it will be part of the national vision of a better life, according to Dr. Schafer. "Our purpose is to be of use to you," he ended. A plaque was presented to the center, featuring a statement made to the college in May 1966 that the City of Florence would donate 10 acres of land for a skills center. Dr. Brauer also received a plaque of recognition for the time he donatec to the center and for his service on the Original College Board of Education from 1964 to 1976. Open admission.

He would like to see more of an athletic program at the LCC Junction City Outreach Center, but "doesn't like to step on anyone's toes" when he offers classes. The city already has a recreation program. Max's b•gest dream is "to offer swimming and handle it for the college." To this date, however, the only available facility is an open-air swimming pool. Some of the non-credit courses are popular everywhere such as Swedish Massage, Slimnastics, Bookeeping and Accounting, Oil Painting and Pottery. Ross Lemen is relatively new to his job as Oakridge coordinator. He is a high school counselor and brings his advising experience to the job of introducing classes to the community. He is anxious to see more development in the Oakridge program, but can only go as far as the sign-ups allow. This term is the first time college-credit classes have been offered in Oakridge, indicating growth in that direction. Lemen is continuing to look for requests for classes from members of the community. The school systems in all of the towns have been co-operative in supplying rooms for the evening courses, according to the coordinators. Dartime classes make use of rooms in churches or other community buildings. A great many of the students are senior citizens~ taking advantage of the free tuition and their '' artistic ability,'' said Max Strauss. Others are businessmen trying to learn new skills or women who "start in one fun class and end up continuing into college-level classes," saii Pat Freeman. And Max Strauss reveakc' that the two most popular courses in Junction City, Shape-Up and Belly Dancing, are those attended exclusively by \\Omen. Pat Freeman is a former librarian from Cottage Grove High School. She feels that a librarian is similar to a coordinator because both have to ''be able to serve individualized needs.'' Before taking over as full-time coordinattor for LCC, Freeman worked part-time in public relations for the Cottage Grove school system. She now handles public relations for all three Outreach Centers and works at the Main Camµus every afternoon coordinating all the programs. Since she has been involved with the program the longest, she serves in an advisory capacity for the other tw(, coordinators . All three directors feel that the Main Campus has shown that the support the idea of educating the ~ommunity by providing teachers, assisting coordinators and giving financial support to the program5. ''The college has to move in to meet the needs of society and not just these in the 18 to 22 age group,'' said Freeman. The •concept of Lifelong Learning is catching on in Lane County, with the help of LCC's staff and facilities, she said. Strauss has been workin_g as coordinator for one year and ''really enjoys it because he gets to meet a lot of people." He likes to be able to keep up with education "one way or another." things community college students like about Summer Term at Oregon State University 1 Strauss has .conducted a gym class for businessmen since he came to Junction City in 1941. He became a caretaker for the schools and opened them each evening for the gym periods. Thus, he familiarized himself with the facilities available for LCC's programs and is prepared to co-ordinate classes. difficulty in finding competent instructors. Non-credit courses on the three centers differ according to the needs of the community. Junction City has courses in Danish Baking, Mending and Darning, Communication with the Deaf and Cake Decorating. Oakridge offers Yoga, Self Defense, Creative Stitchery and Weight Liftin_g. The Cottage Grove Center offers Piano, Marriage Communication, Astrology, Leathercraft, Floral Arrangements, Shape-Up and Winemak!n_g. Courses in Folk Dance, Folk Guitar, Slimnastics and Rock Polishing are offered in Creswell through the Cottage Grove Outreach Center. . . - hon~~--- . . • on tap 6 •lb. oney~ 3 Our free Summer Bulletin.

A Coliseum spokesman said the shakedown procedures had to be that thorough in order to preyent danger from bottles or cans, presumably filled with intoxicating beverages. Cigarette packages and related paraphernalia were apparently not part of the management's concern. We arrived on time and were delayed enough at the door so that we didn't hear the introduction of the "Warm Up Band" and the crowd wasn't impressed enough to remember. It was Wednesday night, March 24. About 9:15, when Roger Daltrey led The WHO on stage, the place didn't quiet down for the next two hours. We had the advantage of sitting behind the stage and observing between shows the immense amount of work and production that goes into staging a high-intensity show like The WHO in concert. At least a dozen people were involved in staging. A minimum of 12 more were directly involved in stage lighting. A half dozen others were involved in the specialized ''laser beam light shows," two.of which highlighted WHO hits, "Won't Get Fooled Again" and "We Aren't Gonna Take It." The excitement increased as we watched the stage hands prepare the stage for the Great Britain based group. Floors were waxed, mike cords polished, (that's right, even the cords), fresh cups of apparently different liquid refreshment for the performers strategically placed, and finally, four hydraulic platforms lifted from the corners of the stage to high overhead positions, each platform holding a huge spotlight with colored lenses and· a man to operate them. Hawkers were selling WHO tee shirts, posters and official programs, hundreds of 'ushers, security police and misceUaneous officials, aU to be paid from the admission fees, must have totaled over 500. And the production was impressive, although for many repetitious to the point of boredom. Following Daltry to the stage was the semi-gymnast Peter Townshend (pronounced Townsend), who did a tumbling roll onto the stage, his guitar never touching the floor, but instead tucked ~eat!Y inside t~e roll. Hig~ energy ~eith Moon climbed over th~ top of his drums and bassist John Entwistle; the pdlar of stillness, wandered over to his mike, which was specially equipped with two plastic squeeze bottles of liquid to be consumed • during the performance. Daltrey started singing along with his characteristic circling, always counter-clockwise and dancing gait from back to front stage. And the crowd was ready. Screams of crowd reminiscent of the Beatles' crowds of the sixties made song lyrics incomprehensible unless you already knew them. The first two songs were of that variety, WHO classics, "Can't Explain" and "Substitute," and the crowd was firmly with The WHO. The laser beam light shows on the two numbers mentioned earlier were the only different events throughout the remainder of the concert. Daltrey slung his mike around by the cord and arced it high out over the crowd of about 15,000 and Townshend did everything possible to a guitar that could be done on a public stage and the drums kept rocking out high intensity music until both the group and the crowd was exhausted. Entwistle simply played the bass·and sang and looked as though he didn't understand what everybody else was doing there. At the end, I wondered why I had paid that much money to see The WHO, but I was glad I had gone. I would rate the concert six on the sliding scale of ten, the pulses being the high energy, great production, imaginative music and instrumentation. But I never have thought the Coliseum was a temple of great acoustic reverence. The sound system was entirely too loud. The crowd detracted from itself by indescrimate screaming, two hours of extreme intensity without some softening detracts from the overall acceptance. And there was no change in instruments or style, which grew old after awhile, even with all the energy. The WHO played "Pinball Wizard" from the movie "Tommy" which is an exhilirating piece of music and was complimented by the laser light show which followed. The band left without considering an encore and I went out to buy a two dollar program, to my own amazement. The 48th Annual Oscar Awards have once more come and gone. On Monday night, March 29, "One Flew Over The Cuckoo's Nest" won best director, best actress, best actor, and best motion picture of the year. Quite a performance, even in this day of high cost, low budget films. The humble "thankyous" have been uttered and recorded for future reference, and the people have all gone home, or wherever it is that actors and actresses and directors and film crews and everyone involved go between jobs. But did someone forget a line of their script? Except for a brief mention of ''Oregon'' by co-director of Cuckoo's Nest, Michael Douglas, no one seemed to thankyou the person who made those fleeting moments of pride and passion possif>Ie for the cast of Cuckoo's Nest, on Monday night. No one thankyou'd Ken Kesey, the man who wrote the novel which begat the screenplay which begat the ·paychecks which prolonged the existence of those who are noted for the movie, "Cuckoo's Nest," on Monday night. You'd think that in an industry as large and grand as theirs, someone could have spared the measured breath, the modulated tones it required to thank a man who did write the novel, though he might not be quite the superman that some (maybt even Kesey) think him to be at times. Of course there is a present feud over rights and royalties and all that which Kesey maintains he has coming to him, but then both Metro and Columbia have been known to have their little arguments at times too, and nobody forgets to thank them when the , opportunity arises. This man from Oregon, however, this Kesey character, is possibly past his literary prime anyway? No need to sow for the future, to heap those superlatives, to thankyou him in the hopes of future remembrance, future favor. So go, ride with the big and forget the small and watch out for yourself; ride the Great Motion Picture Industry, our acetate "ambassador" to many nations (God help our image). And smile, plastic smile, smile.

Lane collected but 11 hits total in the doubleheader but scored 20 runs, winning 9-0 and 11-1. Pete Twyman drew the pitching assignment for this first league game and cooled off the Cavaliers with a one hitter, walking four and hitting three others. The afternoon got colder and Donnie Lee came onto the pitching mound for the second game. He hung a fat pitch that cost him a run scoring double in the second but froze the door shut at the end, striking out six of the last seven batters. Randy Guimond and Dave Gambino, Titan outfielders batting one-two in that order, characterized the LCC attack in the third inning of the second game. Guimond walked, stole second and then raced home on Gambino's ground single to right . . . right through the hole left by the second baseman who was trying to keep Guimond close to second. On the throw to the plate from right field to try to get the sliding Guimond, Gambino went into scoring position at second base. Titan baseball started in Ontario, Oregon last week and though they lost all four games to Treasure Valley, TVCC has already played 14 ball games before LCC heard, "Play Ball!" Miller said of the trip to eastern Oregon, ''they have very little rain and can start a lot earlier than we. It's kind of like the problem Duck baseball has, having to go against USC and UCLA. But they weren't league counters. Today is the day we began.!' Mil.ler says his team is in shape. They have four good pitchers, are two deep in all the infield positions, three good catchers, and some hitters who are running a little belfind. But he thinks they will be first place competitors and improve on their 24-19, second place tie in the league last year. Wednesday, March 31, Lane will host OCE's JV's in double header, starting at 1 p:m. If you get the paper by 4 p.m. and have read this, you can still pick up on some of the ball game. The field is out beyond the Performing Arts Building, out past the soccer field.

The baseball season starts in a cloud of controversy because of ·? dispute between labor and management--for the second straight year. The reserve clause, written into each player's contract, i~ the inticing reason for the disputes. The players object to the clause because it allo"is the club owners the right to determine the length of the player's contract. In other words, in most cases right now, the owner can term,nate the contract by either trading or placing the player on waivers [firing him], but the player cannot move to another team if he so desires. Even after a specified length of time, as in the case of the five-year by Don Sinclair contract Larry Bawa signed with the Phillies, a player still can't play for anyone Tne Lane Community College gymnaelse without permission.

Two hundred years in fact. Johann Birkenstock., master cobbler started it all back in 1774. His small shop developed over the years _(we could say centuries!) into one of Europe's finest and most respected shoe design centers. The "Footprint" concept of proper weight distribution and natural foot movement was pioneered by us twenty years ago. Years of research on posture, toe and ankle movement, circulation and balance went into perfecting our unique shoes. Birkenstock Footprints are carefully made in a small, nodern and friendly factory along the Rhine river in West Germany, where Cad Birkenstock personally supervises all phases of production. We are not surprised that Birkenstock Footprints are popuJar all over the world. WHY BIRKENSTOCK FOOTPRINTS FEEL SO GOOD [AND WHY THEY ARE SO GOOD FOR 'YOU[ Birkenstock Footprints are different than other shoes. They are shaped exactly like your feet. They allow your feet the freedom to move as if you were barefoot on soft earch. They are open to allow the hygenic benefits of sun and fresh air. The cupped hee!seat lets the heel carry most of the weight. Your toes are free to balance your body for an easier, more natural and more graceful walk. Your entire body feels better when circulation and posture is improved. Your foot rests on a soft, feather-light and flexible footbed. This unique footbed molds to your feet and cushions your body against the impact of hard surfaces. Birkenstock Footprints are light and gentle on your feet. They are easy to get used to and a pleasure to wear year round--Birkenstock makes walking fun again. SCARBOROUGH FAIRE OON-6:00P.M.,MON.
