Boa rd may disb and dep artm ent

by Mike McLain

The Interdisciplinary Studies Department will be disbanded tonight if the LCC
Board of Education accepts a recommendation to that effect from Dean of Instruction,
Gerald Rassmussen.
Rasmussen is concurring with the
recommendation of Associate Dean Joyce
Hopps, who has just completed an ''indepth study'' of the need for a separate
department. The study concluded that the
courses currently offered in the department could ''be supported more
adequately within larger departments and
can be well served by being placed within

the main dialogue existing within those
disciplines."
Hopps will tell the Board fhat it is not
"contemplated that any courses presently
offered through the Interdisciplina ry
Studies Department will be discontinued,''
and it is her recommendation that the
classes be assigned to either Social Science
or Language Arts.
Hopps also says that "As a result of this
decision, no personnel will be forced out of
their existing teaching position,'' and the
college . will provide a "center" for
students to share common interests among

themselves if they so desire.
Hopps' study and the recommendation
from Rasmussen grew out of the December
10 meeting of the Board when it was
decided to postpone a recommendation by
Rasmussen ·to disband the department
until a comprehensive evaluation could be
done Spring Term.
Also included in the recommendation is
the plan to assign the current department
chairman, Bill Powell to a full time
teaching position as well as give presently
existing part-time staff priority in teaching
courses they now instruct.
One of the rationals for the recommendation is that none of the other 13 community
colleges in Oregci"'n have a separate
department for ethnic study classes
although they do offer the courses. In the
other schools, according to Hopps, these
classes are contained within other disciplines.

"Does a program which appears to be
segregated and gives the appearance of
serving mainly minorities," Hopps also
questioned, ''really meet the goals and
objectives of the courses involved?"
Another reason Hopps gives for the
recommendation is the comparably high
cost in staff expenditure per Full Time
Equivalency (FfE) student in the department. The total staff expenditure per FTE
for the Interdisciplinary Studies Department was $723.31 in 1974-75 while in the
Social Science Department it was $441.12
for the same period.
Rasmussen stated earlier that because
"Women's Studies classes are contained
within the Interdisciplinary Studies Department, any discussion about the
department will include a discussion about
the future of Women's Studies."
The Board will meet to discuss the
matter at 7:30 p.m. in the Board Room.

Some 375 students who resided at ASH
Lane facilities in Springfield from July 1974
through September 1975 and received rent
rebates are currently heing asked to return
those rebates, plus interest, and the
TORCH has learned they may be charged a
penalty if they don't.
OSPIRG has requested that the Department of Revenue waive the interest
charges on the grounds that neither did the
students know of the change at the time it
occurred, nor do they now have the money
to pay it back, in most cases.
•
OSPIRG also claimed that the revenue
department disregarded the students'
interests, by not notifying them of the
exempt status until they sent them
deficiency assessment notices.
But Department of Revenue Director
John ·Lobdell responded to the request as
such: "The students have erroneously
received renter refunds. They have been
assured that they may pay under the
friendliest of circumstances. Repayment
under an installment plan will not subject
them to the penalties that are imposed by
law, and we will--if individual circumstances warrant--conside r the problem of
interest, but place a condition on that
consideration that a reasonable payment
program has not only been agreed upon
but is also timely executed. In no case
where the student ignores the problem and
the responsibility will I waiver either
interest or penalty.''
According to Deputy Director of the
Department of Revenue Robyn Godwin,
the department is required by law to collect
interest ort money owed the stace. ''The
average return has been about $75 per
student," says Godwin, "with interest of
about $6.'' If a penalty would have to be
assessed, it would be charged on top of the
return, plus interest, at a rate of 5 per cent
per month up to a maximum of 25 per cent,
says Godwin.
But no penalties have been assessed yet,
according to Godwin, and according to
Judith Armatta, of OSPIRG.
"We'll waive the penalties _if they
(former ASH residents) respond to us and
offer to pay so much a month," Godwin
says. "If they ignore it, they will be
penalized."
Although the students have filed for and
received rebates they did not have coming
to them, "I'ni sure the students did not

even know about· the refund--they'II be
penalized only if they fail to respond."
OSPIRG, however, is still trying to get
the interest and possible penalties waived.
"We're working through Governor
Straub's office to get it worked out," says
Armatta. But the initial response from
Straub's office is in support of the
Department of Revenue's response.
OSPIRG is trying again, according to
Armatta.
OSPIRG has also called for an investigation of Oregon's A SH organization to
determine what happened to some
$100,000 in tax exemptions saved by ASH
from July 1, 1974 to September, 1975.
In a letter dated April 21, 1976, OSPIRG
a~ke·d Federal Department of Housing and
Urban Development Director Russell Dawson to investigate the matter. But HUD
responded to OSPIRG, saying that they
• cannot release any information concerning
the case presently. _
"We told them (OSPIRG) that as long as
the case (Bender-McLen nan fraud case
which was uncovered by a 1972 OSPIRG
investigation) is tied up in litigation we will
look at it on a regular basis along with all
other nationwide ASH facilities," says
Deputy Director of Oregon's HUD office,
Lynn Stowell.

Senate Seled Committee says CIA involved with colleges
(CPS)--The CIA currently has "clandestine relationships'' with thousands of
college administrators, professors, graduate students and academic foundations,
according to the recently-released report of
the Senate Select Committee on Intelligence.
The committee, chaired by Frank Church
(D-Idaho), has shown that the CIA has long
maintained intimate ties with academicians
at hundreds of universities, using them on
a "massive" scale. The names of specific
individuals and institutions were deleted
from the report.
All covert connections between universities and the CIA which were established
after l 96 7 are in direct violation of a
presidential order handed down by Lyndon
Johnson.
Most of the contacts are limited to asking
professors about their travels. But
professors are also used to consult on areas
of expertise, to provide data while
traveling abroad and to write books used
for propaganda in foreign countries. Since
1969. said the Senate report, the CIA has
produced about 250 books abroad, dealing
with everything from wildlife to T.S. Eliot
to capitalism.
In at least one case, at Washington
University in St. Louis, a faculty member
was used by the CIA to provide information
on his colleagues.
The CIA also exerted heavy influence in
funding academic projects, funnelling
money through philanthropic organizations. Between 1963 and 1966, the CIA
helped fund nearly half of 164 grants in the
field of international affairs. Only the
three • biggest foundations--Rockefeller,
Carnegie and Ford--did not participate.
The CIA has connected itself to
universities almost since the agency's
inception in the late forties. In 1951, for
example, the CIA helped establish a
research institute at a major American
university. The institute was set up to
study world-wide political, economic and
social changes.
During the fifties and sixties, the CIA
turned increasingly to covert action in
student, cultural and labor matters,
according to the Senate report. The CIA's
view was, said the report, that "the
struggle with communism was seen to be,
at center, a struggle between our institutions and theirs.''
Covert links between the CIA and the
American academic community first came
1to the public eye in 1967, when Ramparts
magazine proved that the intelligence
agency was connected to the National
Student Association (NSA).
Besides providing the NSA with secret
funding, the CIA used students in the

Organization for
students over 25
in plan.ning
Plans are currently underway to form
a statewide organization for college and
university students over the age of 25.
The proposed organization grew out of
the First Annual Oregon Conference on
Lifelong Learning, held at Southern
Oregon State College in April.
The purpose of the organization will be
to "raise the consciousness level" of
school administrators to the special needs
of "older" students, according to Jane
Farrand, University of Oregon coordinator
of lifelong learning services.
A steering committee of representatives
from · Portland State University, Oregon

Education and Southern Oregon State

the philosophy and direction of the planned
organization .

organization who were traveling overseas
to report on communist or third world
personalities, and to observe Soviet
security practices.
In the wake of the Ramparts expose,
President Johnson set up a committee to
investigate CIA connections with the
academic world, headed by Nicholas
Katzenbach, Under Secretary of State at
the time.
Katzenbach, however, recently admitted
that his committee's purpose was not only
to investigate CIA-university ties, but to
head off a full-scale congressional investigation. The real intention, said Katzenbach, w~.s to shield the CIA. AlJ covert
relationships were to be excluded from the
committee's report. Katzenbach also
testified that he wanted his investigation to
specifically exclude all relationships between the CIA and American businesses
abroad.

Even before the 1967 revelations, CIA said the Church committee.
Although the Senate committee warned
covert activities through student and
cultural groups were being curtailed. The • academics that covert activities with the
CIA felt, said the recent report, that the CIA_may "undermine public confidence"

Dennis Banks predicts

AIM leader's trial
I

delayed by politics
by Mike_McLain
American Indian Movement (AIM)
founder Dennis Banks predi'cted Monday
that federal firearms and explosives
charges against him will be dismissed
when the case goes to trial in Portland
today.
"But, don't be fooled," Banks warned
his audience at Lane Community College.
·"They just want to _postpone the trial.
When they dismiss the charges they will
re-indict us for a trial in November.''
Banks, his wife and several companions
were arrested last fall following an incident
in Ontario, Oregon in which they allegedly
transported guns and explosives across the
state border from Idaho.
• Speaking to a crowd of approximately
300 people in LCC's Forum Building,
Banks said that although the prosecution·
will claim they' 'don't have full evidence ..
the rear reason (for the delay) is that on
May 25 there will be a lot of politicians in
t_own for the primary and they don't want
this issue raised.'' He said they <lop 't want
to deal with the fact that ''the American
Indian Movement is also in town."
Banks was at LCC to build support for
his effort to fight extradition to South
Dakota where he is wanted for sentencing
on a July 1975 convietion of "riot where
arson is committed." Banks said_he "fears
for his life'' if he is forced to return to
South Dakota because of a statenfent
allegedly made by South Dakota Attorney
General WiHiam Janklow that the best way
to stop militant AIM members is to, ''put a
bullet in the guy's head, he won't bother
you any more."
Dennis Roberts, an attorney for Banks
and co-speaker, told the audience it is
''impossible for an Indian to get a fair trial
in South Dakota because racism permeates
the entire government.''
"I am here seeking sanctuary," said the
44 year old Chippewa. ''I am here seeking
the same kind of sanctuary that the people
of Jamestown got from the Indians.'
Whiie Banks explained what he termed
misunderstandings about AIM and their
actions at "Wounded Knee," South
Dakota in 1973, his companions obtained
signatures from most of the audience on a
petition to Governor Straub of Oregon, and
Governor Brown •of California urging the

il,r

two men to refuse extradition. They also
managed to fill two coffee cans with dollar
bills and change in donations to help Banks

scheduled to make a decision on Banks'
extradition in May.
''There has been a great misunderstanding about the American Indian
Movement,'' he said, and he blames the
news media for, "failing fo get the truth
about why Wounded Knee came down in
1973, about why it became violent." His
contact with the media at Wounded Knee
convinced him that "SO per cent of the
media works for the FBI " because some of
the newsmen that he had considered
''friends'' ended up as witnesses for the
prosection.
"Wounded Knee had to happen," said
Banks. He explained that the deplorable
conditions on the Pine Ridge reservation in
1973 got to the point where two of the tribaf
women finally said ''no inore. M
"The Indian women have watc~ed their
children commit suicide, and their sons
and husbands turn into drunks,'' he said.
''So they challenged the Tribal Headsmen;
'You men must do something about
yourselves; where is the spjrit of Crazy
Horse?' "
Banks told the audience that during a
1973 tribal council, Oglala Medicine Man
Fools Crow told the other headsmen, "We,
must listen to the women; we are no longer
men. We must put down the peace pipe
u_ntil there is real peace for the Indian. We
must call upon the Dog Soldiers and the
Chiefs and people from across the nation
and tell them to come to Wounded Knee."·
In 1890, Wounded Knee, South Dakota
was the site of the last major altercation
between Indians and the American .army
where Banks said, "200 women and
children were massacred.''
Banks said Black Elk, an Oglala
Medicine Man who witnessed the 1890
battle, told the tribe before his death that
the Wounded Knee battle had ''broken the
Hoop of the Indian Nation and killed the
Tree of Life.'' These are symbolic
references to the unity and strength of the
Indian nations.
"Fools Crow told the 1973 council,. 'We
must go back to Wounded Knee and mend

qf
~,v .

tfi

the Hoop of Nations and water the Tree of
Life.' That was our dream," Banks said.
"It's hard to be an Indian when you are the
landlord in this country and the tenants
have taken over.''
Banks blamed the Bureau of Indian
Affairs (BIA) for much of the Indian's
plight. "In 1849 the BIA was given 155
million acres of Indian land in trust. Since
then they have given away over 100 million
of those acres.'• Banks likened this to
someone placing 155 acres of land into the
hands of a lawyer and after a year finding
out the lawyer had donated 100 acres of the
land to '' Standard Oil, Minnesota Mining,
etc." "Well, you could fire the lawyer, but
we can't fire the BIA. I don't know why."
Banks felt many people have the
misconception that AIM engages in
nothing but militant actions. "Much of
our work is in the area of education and

Housing and Urban Development grants,
and we're trying to build 141 more."

photo by Jeff Hayden
AIM has also been instrumental. according to Banks, in establishing 15 urban
Indian schools across the country. '' In July
the AIM survival school in Minnesota will
be used as a model for future urban Indian
schools." He said there needs to be
"major changes in the field of Indian
education."
''I would like to see corrections in history
textbooks that make reference to Indians
only as murderers of white women and
children."
Once, when he was asked to _give a talk
on busing, Banks said, "You should take
the busses, back them up to the schools
and load all the curricula into them and
take the books to the local dump.''
Following his explaination of som_e of
AIM's projects, Banks said he didn't know
what Straub would do about his extradition, but he told listeners that, "I
throw my case before you. You are my
jury; you can say 'send him back,' or you
can say 'keep him here.' I would like to
know that non-Indians would dare to stand
and deliver the message."

Work: The foundation of modern society?
By Bill McGraw
(CPS)--"Work," boomed author Studs
Terkel, whose very name has become
synonymous with drudgery, boredom and
sweat, "gives the modern American a
feeling of "anonymity and wondering."
The Chicagoan told an audience of
Berkeley students early this year that
working people today are asking themselves " what am I doing? " as they -perform
their " daily humiliations , " as Terkel put it
in his best-selling book, Working.
'' What am I doing,'' wonders Anna
Shapiro as she licks an envelope addressed
to, of all people, Studs Terkel, an envelope
containing a royalty check for that very
book, Working. "I wanted to send it in
with a letter,' ' Shapiro wrote recently in
Seven Days magazine. "Dear S.T.: The
irony of the situation overwhelms me. My
yearly salary for stuffing envelopes is less
than one-fifth of this check which represents one-half of your yearly profits from a
book about people who stuff envelopes."
Work. It's still the foundation of modern
society and the thing that so turned on the
Puritans, but today, work is probably the
biggest losers around. As the nature of
modern industrial society changes, the
work ethic is changing as well, experts are
saying, even disappearing, according to
some. The long range leaders talking in
chilling, desperate terms about the future
of work and its consequences for the world.
One thing everyone agrees on: Students
and other young Americans stand to lose

''The irony of the situation
overwhelms me."
what one insurance industry research
group catled a "somewhat different
culture."
Unemployment is currently the biggest
bug~boo in nearly every Western nation .
In the U.S. , the rate hovers about the 7.5
percent mark, 13.7 for blacks. 19.2 percent
for young people and a whopping 35.2
percent for young blacks. These dismal
rates ~on 't soon improve, experts warn.
" Even with recovery," says cautious
Business Week magazine, "unemployment will stick at a very high level; at least
five percent through 1980." But even that
five percent prediction hinges on whether
the country can generate 12 million jobs by
1980, a tricky proposition when one looks at
the work situation closely. Conjuring up 12
million jobs in 14 years, admits Bbsiness
Week, "is more than have ever been
generated before."
The task of creating all those jobs goes
on top of a changing work force situation.
The nation's jobs are slowly changing from
a manufacturing character to a service ·and
information-oriented nature. Today, the
fastest growing jobs are in managerial,
professional , technical and clerical fields,
which already account for 40 percent of the
labor force. The work force is changing in
human makeup as well. Plunging into the
job market for the first time in large
numbers are young women; three times as
many women as men entered the work
force last year and one Temple University
economist predicts they'll reach parity with

men by 1980.
Since the economy is unable to generate
enough jobs for the population , women,
teens, minorities and the usual number of
men are scrambling after the meager
offerings. This vicious circle is called an
economic "structural problem" by experts
and it is nagging the people who think
about such things because ' ' structural
problems" don't respond to the usual
market manipulations. "In the western
world , something has changed radically in
political economics," Business Week announces. "Our economy suffers from a
serious mismatch between available jobs
and available workers,'' says Northwestern
University economist Robert J. Gordon.
Moreover, the expected tight economy
for the next 15 years is creating a massive
pool of "underemployed" people, a polite
way of saying many former students with
doctoral degrees in hand are emptying
trash for a living. A recent University of
Michigan study found that as much as 27
per cent of the U.S. work force is
performing a job for which they have been
overtrained or overeducated. The Wall
Street Jou,nal says "underemployment"
will soon become a chronic problem.
"Indeed, some analysts believe that many
of today's underemployed will probably
spend the rest of their careers in jobs that
don't match their qualifications,'' warns
the Journal. "That," it adds, "has
ominous implications for industry and
society.'' Says urban economist Charles
Holt, "it's a smoldering problem."
Students should expect the worse for the
writing seems to be on the wall. The U.S.
Bureau of Labor Statistics reports rapidly
rising numbers of college graduates--both
men and iwomen--are being forced to take
jobs unrelated to their majors and
unrelated to college at all. "The golden
age is over for higher education," says
Harvard economist Richard Freeman. '' A
college degree no longer guarantees a
good, high-paying job, so graduates are
taking the best they can get.'' George
Rieder, president of the American Society

"The golden age is over for

higher education."
for Personnel Adm inistration, agrees.
"The simple fact is we've educated people
too much for the wrong types of careers.'•
On top of all these facts and statistics,
the future stockholder might also consider
the more philosophical bugaboo creeping
into the work force--the growing refusal
among many people to work at all.
Philip Mason, achivist at the Walter
Reuther Labor Archives at Wayne State
University in Detroit, writes in a long essay
in a recent National Observer that "many
observers view with deep alarm the
apparently changing attitudes of American
workers to their jobs and the existing free'
enterprise system.'' Mason adds that
many workers--especiallf the young-"have little committment to their job.
They view with equal suspicion the
business for which they work and the labor
union which represents them," he says.

2 Million become lousy per year
by Amy Parker

There is an epidemic crawling across
America that most people don't know
about.
We are being invaded, or rather
infested, by the Pediculosis--lice.
This epidemic has been kept fairly quiet
despite the fact that over two million
people become lousy each year. Many are
horrified at the thought that a louse would
even dare consider residing on their body
or on the body of a family member. After
all, "nice, clean" people don't become

Head lice, reasonably enough, live on
the head. They prefrr to live. breed, and
fe~ed in the hairline behind the"ears and at
the i:iape of the neck. They are transmitted
from person to person via such articles as
infested brushes, hats, or anything in
contact with the head.
Body lice inhabit clothing, preferably the
seams of those garments worn closest to
the warm skin. Body lice are especially a
problem when clothes are not often
changed or washed. Miners, who used to
sew their underwear on for the winter,
didn't call their long-johns "itchiescratchies" for nothing. Body lice are
transmitted through direct contact with an
infested person or with a lousy piece of
clothing.
Crab lice are most commonly found
living in pubic hairs, although infestations
of the eyebrows, eyelashes, and hairy
areas of the chest and armpits are also
possible.

unnecessary itching.
It is true that lice thrive in overcrowded
and unsanitary conditions, such as those
always accompanying war or natural
disasters. But anyone can become infested

Lice are blood-sucking insects and don't

The gift of crabs may be received from
infested toilet seats and bedding as well as
from physical contact.
Generally, each race of lice remains in its
own area and mates with its own kind.
Occassionally, though, an adventurous
body louse happens upon a head louse
somewhere near the collar level and the
two form an alliance producing fertile little
lice. The crab louse absolutely refuses to
develop a meaningful relationship with
anything other than another crab, taking a
stand for ethnic purity.

to another they can crawl pretty damed

If you suspect lice infestation, look for
such symptoms as intense itching and tiny
bugs (less than 1 mm long) and/or eggs at
the base of hairs or in the seams of
clothing. If they are there, do something
appropriate to get rid of them soon.
The lice have it very good where they are
living, and will not leave unless forcibly
evicted.

fast, that's part of the reason for the
epidemic. School children, having even
limited contact with an infested person, are
very likely to get lousy and then spread it
on. One person can easily infest his/her
entire family and all those having close
contact with them.
Once the lice have been detected it is not
a difficult matter to get rid of them,
provided one gets all o( them. This means
that each person who might be infested
must be treated and any personal
belonging that might be infested must be
either washed in very hot water and dried
in a hot commercial dryer or dry cleaned.

Activities begin at 9:30 a.m. in the
cafeteria, will be followed by panel
discussions and special interest sessions
from 11 a.m. to noon, and will conclude at 3

on SAT

(CPS)--Armed with statistics showing
slumping SAT scores, parents have turned
on "permissive education" and television,
blaming both for the comparative mental
rut their children find themselves in.
A University of Michigan professor has
another explanation. The reason for
lowered scores, according to Dr. Robert
Zajonc. is that there are more stupid
children running around these days.
Zajonc reports that a 12 year study of
the scores has shown first born children·
usually fare best on the tests. Zajonc
concluded that the last child born into a
family, as well as an only child, are at an
automatic disadvantage in taking SAT
tests.
But there's hope for the future. A high
percentage of children born between 1947
and 1962--the students now taking the
SA Ts--were born into disadvantageously
sized families. Zajonc predicts that the
trend should continue until 1980 before
reversing itself.

China hit by

(CPS)--ln China not even meteorites
remain apolitical for Jong. When a
meteorite weighing nearly 4,000 pounds
crashed to earth in northeast China
recently, scientists conducted their research in the spirit of the revolution.
The survey by a scientific team,
according to the official report at least,
''was conducted in the excellent situation
in which the people of the whole country
are intensifying the criticism of TengHsiao-ping's counter-revolutionary crimes
and deepening the struggling against the
right deviationist attempt to reverse
correct verdicts."

in China between moderates and radicals,

Oregon:
Habitat
with a
future?
by Sherri Shaffer
"Oregon ... A Habitat with a Future,"
a day long forum concerning population
growth, intergenerational activities, power
resources, and land use, was presented to
the public on Saturday, May 8, in the
Forum Building.
The forum, which hosted five guest
speakers and a panel of eight, was
moderated by Gerald Rasmussen, dean of
Instructional Operations at LCC, and
sponsored by The National Endowment for
the Humanities and the Oregon Commission for the Humanities. Counting the
panel, about 30 people attended the
conference.

Gerald Rasmussen, dean of Instructional Operations at LCC moderated, and John Alcock,
supervisor of the Willamette National Forest, gave the keyno!e speech at the con!er~nce
on habitat attended by about 30 people, May 8, m the Forum Bu1ldmg.
"We in Oregon should be optimistic,"
emphasized J_o hn Alcock, supervisor of the
Willamette National Forest in his keynote
speech. "We have tremendous resources
here that are still largely unspoiled," he
added.
Alcock said the clean up of the
Willamette River and work on the
Willamette Greenway have been a '' great
start.'' He said his main concern was to
inform the people of the problems at hand
and tci get them involved.
Betsy Moen, assistant professor of
sociology at the University of Oregon

discussed ' '. Population Planning and Projections." Moen presented a b~ief
background of existing methods of proJecting population growth.
"Can we dictate fertility laws and tell
people where to live? We say no, but it's
done in subtle, subconscious ways." Moen
explained that through zoning ·1aws (what
type of house, the size, the cost) cities can
effectively control the age, social status
and size of their populations.
Dulcinia Elliot, from the Emerald
Empire Council on Aging spoke on
intergenerational activities. "Some of the
youngest people I know are crowding 80,"
she said.
Comparing life in her youth to young
people's lives today, Elliot said students
are at a disadvantage. "We grew up
believing we should be self-sustaining and
would starve before we'd ask for help.
Someone who gets food stamps without
really needing them wouldn't understand
that.'' Students--even students of gerentology--can't understand this ethic.

phOto by ~cott Muart
Panel Members discussed population growth, intergenerational activities, power
resources and land use during the day long conference.

But Ron Wyden, who works with the
Gray Panthers, said, ''What is important is
your own particular uniqueness to the
community, not what age level yo-u've
reached." He said his main concern is
with nursing homes and the quality of care
patients receive there. "Most of the work

is done by nurses aides. We want to
improve the quality of the aides so we can
improve the quality of the· care.'' Wyden
hopes to do this by passing a la~ for
mandatory requirements for nurses aides.
James E. Mayes, customer and technical
service representative from Pacific Power
and Light Company, spoke on present and
future power sources. "The demand for
electric energy is doubling every decade ,:•
he said. "Since each area of power 1s
related to another, all must be labeled
crisis to get ~ttention."
Mayes said there is a problem in getting
people to realize that alternative energy
sources may not be available for a long
time. "Just because a Texan uses solar
energy for 50 per cent of his heat does not
mean we can do it here. Not too many
people would go to the trouble and energy
to put in a solar energy plant that would
save them only $36 a year."
There are presently 240 powerproducing windmills operating in the, US
according to Mayes. "We have applied for
one of the governments mills to put in
Wyoming. A problem with this source is
that you must have wind. "
Concerning alternative sources Mayes
says we cannot expect any major contributions until 1985 or the year 2000.
"A saying around P P and L is 'Use all
you need , but save all you can!' he addeo.

Afternoon conference session deals with land use issue
by Tom Carlson

Lane Transit District Director of Planning, David Rynerson spoke on the
relationship between land use and transportation planning. He took issue with an
argument that patterns of population
growth are determined primarily by
transportation planning, maintaining
instead that residential and employment
sites determine the means and routes of
transportation, and that all three in
conjunction determine the pattern of
growth.
Citing the importance of citizen participation in land use planning, particularly in
the initial stages when goals are set,
Dorothy Anderson, member of the Land
Conservation and Development Commission said , ''Each community is different.
Each community has specific goals in
addition to statewide goals.''
She added that citizens must be involved
in the resolving of conflicts, such as the
conflict between "development" and
"conservation" in land use planning, and
for diversity of input.
An explanation of the "1990 Plan," as
part of the data base for land use planning
in Eugene, Springfield and surrounding
urbanizing area was given by Jim Miller of
the Lane Council of Governments.
Miller described how the plan began 10
to 15 years ago in conditions of agricultural
land being yielded to urban land needs,
new requirements for delivering services to
population centers at reasonable prices,
and growing conflicts over how available
land was to be used.
There is a major re-evaluation an<l

"We in Oregon should be optimists," says updating of the plan currently going on, he
Alcock.

The afternoon session of the conference
dealt entirely with the issue of land use,
which was accorded a panel of six speakers
and two "humanist" commentators.
The first speaker of the afternoon,
Maggie Collins, of the University of oregon
Department of Urban and Regional Planning, discussed ''Citizen Involvement in an
Expanding Environment.''
She spoke of the "drastic" social and
functional adjustments that must be made
to accommodate population growth and
land use requirem~nts. ·

said. Though preparation of a new plan
will begin in July of this year, he said it will
take a year of information gathering to
produce. He emphasized t~e importance
of citizen involvement and mput through
the Metropolitan Area Planning Advisory
Committee.
Joseph Meyers, Assistant Pr?fess?r of
landscape architecture at the Umvers1ty of
Oregon, spoke on !he_ importance_ of
geological data gathermg m the determmation of land use.
Sally Weston of the League of Wome~
Voters told of the activities of the
"Observer Program" of the League,
through which members become informed
of governmental actions, and in turn, seek
to inform the public of the pros. ~nd cons of
issues that should be of public concern.
One of the two "humanists" on the
panel, Dr. Edwin Bingham, professor of
history at the University of Oregon, said
that there ought to be a way of open·ing up
questions of transcendental values.
The role of a humanist, Bingham said, is
to attempt to define values that transcend
practical, economic and statistical values values that go back to times of "nonaccumulated knowledge.''
He said there ought to be community
participation in decisions on land use, that
there ought to be a definition of the '' good
life" for the community as well as for the
individual, and that problems might _be
reconciled by a "concensus, not unanimity' ' of the community.
The other participant in a humanist role,
Dr. M. George Zaninovich , professor of
political science at the University of

Oregon , stated that a humanist informs not
through clarity of purpose, but through
ambiguity and doubts. He expressed the
feeling that mobility had a dehumanizing
effect as it detracted from man's traditional
relationship with the land. He also said
that in a humanist's view, man is asserting
too much control over nature.
According to Paul Ackerman, coordinator of the grant from 'ae Oregon
Commission for the Humauities, LCC is
one of four Oregon community colleges
which have agreed to be sites for habitat
forums. The others are Treasure Valley,
Portland, and Chemeketa community
colleges.
Says Ackerman , " Community colleges
are most eager to do the forward-looking
things, and they are by far the most
flexible." By flexible, Ackerman explains
they "tailor programs to needs" and have
offered "the most complete cooperation."
The entire conference was taperecorded, and according to Ackerman, the
tapes will be given to the Oregon Museum
of Science and Industry to be "pro.grammed and indexed for researchers to
use."
Ackerman tied the local habitat conference to a United Nations Conference on
Habitat to be held in Montreal May 31 to
June 11.
•'Persons participating in the LCC
conference may be invited to participate in
the U.N. conference, " he said. In any
event. he indicated, the input and dialogue
of the LCC conference would be useful to
the U. N. conference~

subdivided the old hills with a glance or a
gesture.
"We had to pull the milk cans from the .
road to our place on ·a horse-drawn sled,''
he reminisced. "That was in the winter,
but also in the spring ... since the mud
would be hip deep ... horses were the only
way to get around then. Trucks didn't have
any pull out here in the winter."
His family raised wheat and vetch, and

burned to the ground well after the Haskell
family left the area to move to Yoncalla.
But, besides, he hadn't .ever wandered
quite this far from his own farm.
Walking home the group studied maps
and aerial photographs of the area. It's all

of forests and the red and pink of roads and
towns.
And the cars on Thirtieth interrupted the
quiet.

Managers resign

by Max Gano
Work is at a standstill and both
managers have resigned effective May 15.
The Community Center for the Performing
Arts is having its share of growth pains.
Resigning managers Daniel Einbender
and Steve Cohan seem to agree that a
major problem has been that no one will
organize and inspire volunteer labor.
'' If volunteer labor had been coordinated
properly," says Einbender, " . . . that
would have made things a lot better around
here. The fact that it wasn't (organized) is
the main reason for my lea','.ing." Cohan

lnstrudor employs meditation
by James Osgood
Jerry Garg er, English Composition
instructor at LCC, has been experimenting
with a new class procedure ... meditation.
Garger said he got the idea of having a
class meditate before they write about a
year ago when a political discussion in one
of his classes became too heated. Garger,
who has had training in breathing and
centering at Esalen Institute·at Big Sur, in
California, had the class do a simple
breathing meditation for about five
minutes with a favorable result. Tempers

cooled down and the issues under
discussion came into focus, whereas they
had been getting lost in the emotional
agitation before.
Garger has had his classes meditate only
a few times but reaction had been good.
Occassionally he has the students
meditate on a candle in a darkened room.
When the brief meditation is over, most
students report writing with a clearer mind
and greater ease.
Only one person complained that he felt
it was out of place.
Garger feels that the techniques he
learned from Rich Price at Esalen and from
massage teacher Pamela Mitchell are
excellent for clearing the person of
tensions and mental "chatter" accumulated during the day. The co~sequent
result on the class work has shown 1t to be a
fine tool for use in any class, he believes.

According to jeweler Robin Knox, "Due to the lack of proper organization, the LCC
crafts faire was a crock of s--t!" The advertising left something to be desired for the
annual event. "Not even the craftsment knew about it," said Avi and Suki, two other
jewelers. "You can't have any kind of crafts show when the craftsmen don't know about
it. It's the excitement of having alot of folks around that makes a faire."

Barnes back, wins a pair

Titans team up
by Don Sinclair

ifs all for the kids
I imagine you're reading this column to find out about the sports news at LCC. Well,
I've got some bad news and I've got two good newses ... actually three good newses.
First, the bad news. Bob Radcliff is re::;igning as Lane's Athletic Director after se,ving
six years in that capacity. "It's time for a change," Radcliff pondered, "time to let
somebody else try it.''
One might suspect political upheaval in the department, but Radcliff says the job just·
consumed too much time.
''I've had to spend a lot of time away from home--this next week for example, I'll be at
·Linn-Benton on Monday, Thursday and Friday nights for OCCAA and Regional athletic
directors meetings. My oldest boy and girl are in a church activity and they'd like to have
me drive them but I can't. another boy will be iri the Cub Scout Fair and I can't help him
because of the track meet here this weekend. The job (AD) takes a lot of extra time."
The Athletic Director doesn't get paid any more money than an instructor who's been
here the same amount of time. The only 'benefit' is 'release time,' which means that
athletic directors, coaches, and special ·advisors carry only partial work loads during
which they direct, coach, or advise. In the PE department, Radcliff carries four activities
classes instead of the usual seven, just as the athletic coaches do.
Health and PE Department Chairman Dick Newe11 said Radcliff's replacement will
come from "within the department. We have no one retiring or quitting, and we cannot
search elsewhere (to hire another person) because of the budget."
Shall we hypothesize on who might (1) schedule athletic events, (2) create the budget
for athletics (a fearsome job for any mortal these days) (3) attend a lot of meetings that
take you away from your family, and (4) officiate LCC athletic events?
Well, Dale Bates has been an AD for SWOCC, Dwayne Miller has been Sheldon High
School's AD. Both the guys are pretty active -coaches in basketball and baseball,
respectively, and frankly I don't know whether they'd go for this thankless job.
Newell said he's just begun working on the selection process and how the choice will be
made ... and, of course, he's accepting applications from the staff.
"Radcliff's resignation becomes effective at the end of this term and we will have made
our selection by May 28th. This'll allow for a two week transition period before Bob
leaves office."

Gary Barnes, the long legged sophomore
from Eagle Point, eased back into winning
form to lead the Titan Track and Field
squad to their fifth straight OCCAA
championship last Friday and Saturday
here at LCC.
/
Barnes, who has only been whipped once
this season, had taken last week off to relax
an·irritated left knee. ".The 49.1 (in the
440) I ran wasn't too hot, but then there
was really no competition. There hasn't
been any in this conference this year."
While his 440 time was a full second
slower than his PR (personal record), along

Bill Sharp puiled out a dramatic victory
in the 3000 metre steeplechase to lead off
Saturdays action . Trailing Gary Logsdon '
of Clackamas by the thickness of a jersey
going over the last water jump, Sharp
"slowed because we were both going for
the same spot on the hurdle. That cut my
stride just enough so that on the jump, I
just barely got my toes onto the bar, and I
had to just power my way straight up and
over. ' '
When Sharp emerged from the water, he
was nearly 10 yards behind with but 110 to

The good news is that Radcliff will remai~ at LCC as an instructor teaching a full
schedule of classes next fall. But just as important for LCC he will be here to pass on and
AD experience he has accumulated. He will also be an instructor this summer in the LCC
Youth Sports Program.
The Youth Sports Program (YSP) is the second good news I promised. YSP is offered to
kids between the ages of 9 and 15 and includes "extensive instruction in basketball,
baseball, track and field, and weight training,'' according to the sign-up brochure. YSP is
a four week program from 8:50 to 11 :40 every weekday morning except Friday beginning
June 14 in which either boys or girls may participate. Skill level of the participant is not a
factor.
•
The big difference that I c·a n the good news, is that ¥SP is NOT like the big name
basketball camps or football camps put on by professional players. YSP is a total sports
program in that each of the young p~ople must participate in all four training areas and
others that are ''thrown in to break the monotony'' said Dick Newell, ''like raquetball,
tennis or badminton. ''
This is the type of program that brings the community college next to its community.
This program develops the young_ athlete in positive ways that promotes the entire
athlete and the appreciation of what it takes to become a skilled athlete. This allows the
kids the opportunity to make up their minds early in life as to choices they might have for
their futures.
It is also a self-supporting program that costs the taxpayers nothing unless they enroll
their children for the four week course.
This is the third year for YSP, 46 youngsters were enrolled last year. The kids work in
each sport each day for three hours total. The busses run during the summer so if you're
got a kid or two that likes sports, and you could afford to spend a couple of bucks on them,
or they could cut some lawns to pay for it, you might look into YSP at the Health and PE
Office. The deadline is June 14th.
Thirdly, the Titan Track Team has lots of guts ... and spirit. Congratulations guys on
the conference win

Tom Younker rapped a dramatic
seventh inning two run homer to give
the Titans a 6-4 win and a sweep of the
double header over Blue Mountain
Tuesday afternoon on the LCC diamond. The win, coupled with the
opening 3-0 effort for LCC, lifted them
into second place, one full game ahead
of Umpqua Community College who
split with Blue Mountain Community
College on Monday in Roseburg.
Rick Brummette, who had pitched a
perfect game earlier in the season, had
early arm problems and hindered by
Titan error, gave up three runs on three
hits in one plus innings. Pete Twyman
pitched six innings of great relief,
allowing the Mountaineers but one run
the rest of the way, and the Titan
offense battled back. Down 3-0 going
into the bottom of the second, they tied
the game on three hits that inning. An
unearned run in the fourth put them
ahead 'til the fifth, when Blue Mountain
knotted the score at four.
With one out in the bottom of the
seventh, Montgomery singled and
