@ne CommuJptg College Balloonclassunable to get off ground oy Michael Riley A blast of hot air, a slight feeling of motion and I found myself rising off the ground last Wednesday in the KUGN hot air balloon. The balloon was on and over the campus to promote a class to be offered at LCC on ballooning. Free rides and information were being given on the class in the hope that more students would sign up. The TORCH learned of the balloon's appearance at varying times of the morning and its presence was announced on KUGN radio. One of the TORCH staff members was overheard saying the balloon looked like a giant mushroom in the morning fog. John Brooks, reporter for the TORCH, and I saw the balloon as we drove toward campus that morning. Brooks was not quite awake and mumbled a few words about its appearance that are not printable in this paper. Pulling in.to the north parking lot, we dashed over to the balloon's landing area. Closer inspection showed that the balloon rose only a few feet above the ground because of a tether that was held by volunteers. The balloon cannot be used to give rides to groups of people unless it is tethered. While I stood there staring at the lighter-than-air craft, Brooks began to take pictures of the balloon and ask questions of Carol Bernot, the woman who held the tether most of the time we were there. Bernot is a ballooning enthusiast herself and informed Brooks that the balloon takes an hour to inflate and is made from ripstop by Sherri Nelson nyion. ~he added that the whole assembly looked funny this morning with the basket over on its side and the balloon filling with air. The owner and pilot of the balloon is Richard Callicrate, who goes by the nickname of "Captain Crate." From the time I arrived the balloon rose and lowered itself under the skillful control of Captain Crate, giving rides to those who asked. John Canfield. one of the instructors for the course. told the TORCH that the new class is designed to help interested persons prepare for the balloon pilot license written test.

Nathan pointed out that incumbent Fourth District Congressman Jim Weaver has served only one term and during that time "has alienated almost everyone in the Fourth District except Eugene residents." She said that Republican candidate Jerry Lausrnan is unfit for the post because his lumber business connections create a conflict of interest; and she called Jim Howard, the other independent in the race, "a victim of over-education. He doesn't say anything about the issues." She cites her own BA degree in journalism, the ownership of three businesses, and special training in political philosophy, economics, gerontology, and business law as her qualifications. A member of the Libertarian National Party, Nathan said she subscribes to ·its political philosophy, that of non-initiation of force and defense of individual rights by government. Nathan ran as the Libertarian vice-presidential candidate in 1972. Nathan, when asked by the TORCH about her stand on the new tax base levy requested by LCC on the Nov. 2 ba1lot, said she would vote no: "Educational institutions across the nation have not delivered,'' she said, ''though this is not true of LCC. •• Nathan is a former LCC student.

Regulations have not changed, but they are being more strictly enforced, according to Barbara Harmon, director of LCC's Veterans Office. Harmon's office serves as a liaison between the state and federal VA headquarters and with students attending LCC under the GI Bill. Though not a part of the federal agency, Harmon i~ responsible for college record-keeping for all student/ veterans. Students in LCC's Aviation Technology program are complaining that the VA has reduced the time allowable for completing their program from 36 to 28 hours, thus reducing the amount of benefits it will pay students. Not so, said Harmon; the college is responsible for estimating the length of time and number of credits necessary for students to graduate from the program, (those students taking 36 credit hours to complete it may need the extra time, but must pay for it themselves), and the VA accepts the •--- -- / ••• •, ,"' •••• , t • ·~. ·: . . . . •••••• f b R t H· --· ..... college's estimation. However, the VA is now enforcing more stringently the 28-credit completion of the program, and students who have taken longer to finish their projects will find themselves receiving notification that their benefits will not be paid. Aviation Tech students in this status maintain that it takes longer than 28 credit hours to f"mish the program. Dean of Students Jack Carter says that the problem seems to be traceable to record-keeping; instructors in the program have been recording credit on the basis of hours spent in class, rather than projects completed. He said this is currently being corrected. He also pointed out that many students are able to complete the program in the time the college says they can. Both Harmon and Carter emphasized that they are working with the VA and the Aviation Technology Department in an effort to help students stay in the program and retain their benefits if they have not finished the program but have more than the allowable credits. So far, says Harmon, no student has been forced to leave the program because of the stricter enforcement of VA regulations. , · by Sally Oljar Jerry Rust, Frank Elliott, and Andy Maxon, candidates for Position Three on the Lane County Commission, debated commissioner's salaries and the proposed county jail Oct. 12. The debate, which lasted half an hour at Harris Hall, was moderated by representatives from the Eugene Register-Guard and KUGN radio, co-sponsors of the event. Elliott, a Democrat, has been a county commissioner for 14 un-conse_cutive years. He defended his record and emphasized his experience. Although he was ''reluctant" this year to raise commissioner's salaries, and "embarrassed" that it was the commission's responsibility to set the present salary, he feels the '' current salary is appropriate," he said. Rust, running as an independent candidate, is the 32 year old co-founder of Hoedads, a million dollar per year treeplanting collective. He charged that Elliott had "been at the trough long enough." Republican candidate Maxon said he would refuse the recent $2,000 raise (and another one slated for 1978) and return it to the general county fund, or if that is impossible, give it to charity. One of his basic goals, he said, was to save the county money. Rust and Maxon both thought the present salary was too high: "I think Mr. Admin Building saved from fire by John Brooks Elliott should return to the private sector if he wants to make that kind of money,'· Rust said. Elliott has been on the commissions that have raised the salary from $12,000 to the current $30,000 per year. Maxon said he would serve on an expanded five person commission for $20,000 per year. Rust said "$9,000 would be ideal" for him. or $4. 700 for part-time service. Both Elliott and Maxon would like to see the commissioner's salaries set by an outside agency, instead of the commission itself. which is the present policy. Rust stressed public service: "We need people who are dedicated," he said. The candidates all said they will vote against a measure on the Nov. 2 ballot calling for the building of a new county jail, but disagreed with each other on the correct reasons for rejecting the measure. Elliott said he wanted to see a jail built on the site now occupied by the Eugene Armory. Maxon opposes the measure because it includes a wing for short-term emergency handling of mentally disturbed persons. He is opposed to building a "county hospital" that would "cost millions of dollars in the next 15 years," he said. Although he sees a need for the new facility. the proposed $9 million price tag is "too high." Rust is against using the present jail facility in addition to the proposed new one on the ballot. He said the old jail can't be rebuilt to meet present fire and building codes. He called the measure a "rotten compromise. Rust said he wanted to see a more progressive jail than the one that will be voted on. He called for the building of a jail facility that will include work and psychotherapy programs, and an "honor farm" for non-violent first offenders and "young persua~ables." unofficially busy by Rachel Gille Jim Easley including one, according to the ~ecumy report, that was wrapped in a painting tarp.

Commi~Sion candidates debate on two issues Security office~s remove smouldering rags A serious fire in the Administration Building was prevented last week when security officers removed smouldering rags from the construction area on the first floor. According to Security records, the rags were found on Sept. 29 at 7:45 p.m. by Randall Hart and Jim Easley. Hart says he had just finished a half hour at the switchboard, to relieve the regular switchboard operator who had gone to dinner, and was met by his partner Easley. As they left the switchboard area he says they thought they smelled smoke coming from the ceiling although it was because of the ventilation in the building. He added that when he had first entered the switchboard area he had not smelled any smoke. He and Easley, Hart continued, searched the building and soon spotted the smoking rags on a spatter tarp. They put the rags in a box which they took outside, but, Hart said that since he did not know exactly what chemical was in the rags he took no action to extinguish the smouldering rags. He explained that water would just spread a fire feeding on a petrolium base thinner and no harm would be done if the rags and box burned on the concrete walkway. According to Hart , the Goshen fire department "responded very quickly" to his call. Chief Dick Nice took custody of the rags in the box and some other rags found in the building that were warm, .

According to Nice. if the rags had not been found and removed five minutes after they were ''there could have been a fire.'· Paul Chase of Security who investigated the incident the next morning stated that the "center of the rags were burnt ." Although Chase could not disclose the name of the responsible party he did stress that it was "not campus people." He added that the next morning he and Nice contacted the responsible party and Nice advised precautions. According to Tony Birch. dean of business operations, Eldon Schafer sent a letter to the responsible party although what the letter said was not disclosed.

The LCC Women's Center won't officially open for a couple of weeks. yet unofficially a lot is happening. Several services are being provided by the Center now. A parent file is available. Parents can leave their schedule at the Center so that if someone needs to contact them about their children they can be found. Visitors are also welcome to use books and materials from the Center's lending library and resource file. According to Anne Stewart. the Women ' s Program coordinator, the problem with all of the unofficial services is ''there won ' t always be people there to answer questions. But people are welcome to come in.'' When the Center is officially open, staff will be available to assist the visitors. The Center isn't open yet because the staff -- composed of Stewart and 10 workstudy students--is in the process of defining the objectives for ~he Women's Program. The program is keeping a pretty '' low profile" until the women decide what's really necessary to fulfill basic obligations. "That's why we haven't done any advertising for the Center," says Stewart. The problem the women face is deciding which direction to go. "It's just that there are so many things that we could do,'' states Stewart. "We are trying to do our homework. We want to address something we can accomplish this year." While the·staff grapples with determining priorities, it is also making changes in the Center's physical appearance--giving the room a "face-lift" and attempting to make the room more "comfortable" and ''warm·' by adding lamps, a colored carpet and other decor.

He said the Nixon and Ford Administrations have both tried to limit the press' power. He said that Nixon deliberately portrayed the press as secret-tellers who are often detrimental to national security. Schorr said that Nixon, in particular, tried to exploit the citizen's natural desire for security.

Statistics kept by LCC head librarian Del Matheson demonstrate that since the system's installation in 1972, the •number of lost, missing, or stolen volumes has dropped precipitously. A comparison with library records for fiscal 1974- 75, the last year for which complete statistics are available, reveals that net book loss had dropped to 148 books compared to 1,251 in 1971-72. Matheson claims that in the full year prior to the introduction of the detection system (1971) he lost almost nine per cent of his collection. Today that figure is down to less than one per cent. A third of a million users go through the • library turnstiles each year, and each one is electronically searched for a book with a magnetic tag.

Kansas . • passports -:~ (CPS)--With courses like "Raising Catfish in a Barrel" and "Be Good to Your Back .." the nation's 200 free universities provide classes that most colleges wouldn't dream of offering. Every year hundreds of thousands of people enroll at free universities, which offer classes without the burden of grades or credit. These alternative schools specialize in unorthodox subjects that traditional univesities ignore. What we're doing is getting back to the oldest, most basic type of education, where instructors are people who want to teach and students are people who want to learn," explained a spokeswoman for the Experimental College in Seattle, Washington. "We're trying to get away from the preoccupation with teaching certificates and degrees and move towards learning for enjoyment." Free university courses are usually taught in the homes of teachers, who are paid little or nothing for their work. The instructors generally aren't required to have a teaching certificate or even a college degree. an&, C: ~ , Ore~n .. • = ! !

According to Canfield, a club has developed from the class called the Oregon Lighter Than Air Society. After talking with Canfield. I ·ran towards the balloon as it was landing. Visions of having to beg. plead, and cry for a chance to go up went through my mind. My request was met with a simple, "0.K., after these people." I was genuinely excited about this little journey. Sure, the thing only rose a few feet above the ground and there were people holding onto a rope so the balloon wouldn't go anywhere. Still there was that feeling, the feeling of trying something new for the first time. (And I might add, for free.) After what seemed like an eternity, the balloon landed again. I climbed into the basket and was greeted by Captain Crate. The name fits him. I was reminded of the stereotype balloonists of the late 19th century as Callicrate explained the hot air system to the other passenger and ine. With the explanations over. the good captain pulled a lever and we were off the ground. The balloon rose almost effortlessly and came to a gentle halt about 70 feet above the ground. My first reaction was to check the cables that held the basket to the balloon. My fears were restrained when I noticed Callicrate doing just that. The ride ended all too quickly and the descent gave me a depressed feeling. We were leaving the atmosphere and returning to earth. I left the basket in a daze that was broken by a "Watch your step." • I was speechless. and a little envious of the people who can afford to fly in balloons. ( l was told that a balloon similar to Callicrate's costs around $5.000.) Ballooning is a popular sport. One of the reasons many people become enthusiasts is the challenge of getting to a planned destination. Canfield explained that, "It depends on the wind, you go where it goes and as fast as it goes.'' He added that the wind moves in different directions at different altitudes and it is possible to travel in one direction as long as the wind holds. Unfortunately. the balloon did not create enough interest to fill the class and the scheduled classes were cancelled. Canfield is certain that the class will be offered Winter Term, however. The thrill of balloonin~ is a definite "high" for many people. My short experience with the sport was interesting and (excuse the pun) uplifting. r - Women's Studies i- i country Living c - The Northwest 'c - L For free information , write to: DRUNK DRIVER.

James Weaver was honored as the "Taxpayer's Friend" by Taxation with Representation. a public interest taxpayers' lobby. "He was chosen because he consistently voted for tax reform and against wasteful tax subsidies,'' said Thomas J. Reese. legislative director of Taxation with Representation. The taxpayers' lobby. founded in 1970, works to make the tax code fairer, simpler, and more efficient. During the 94th Congress it measured congressional concern for tax reform by studying votes on tax issues. Those who scored htgn on - tax reform, were recipients of the taxpayer's award. The first annual photography contest at Lane Community College will begin accepting entries November 1, 1976. An entrance fee of $1 will be taken for each print, and both students and faculty are eligible for the contest. There will be two categories in the contest: Color Pri~ts, and Black and White Prints.

The carrying of weapons on campus had not been previously excluded by law, said Dean of Business Operations Tony Birch. He gave as an example that a student could wear a revolver in a belt holster to classes, provided it was not loaded. He said that several incidents that occurred in which staff and faculty had been concerned about disciplining persons carrying legal but threatening devices. Dean of Students Jack Carter, Director of Campus Services Mark Rocchio, and Security Manager Hap Stanley recommended that the new policy be put in effect on campus. The policy reads: No person may be in possession of a firearm. destructive device, or other dangerous weapon as defined by law, or give the appearance of being in said possession on College owned or controlled property. Permitted exceptions include use in conjunction with approved instructional demonstrations or by peace officers, persons summoned by peace officers, or members of the armed forces under orders for campus safety. Other deviations such as for caretakers, must be approved by the President. The Board decided, in a six to one vote, to pass the resolution. Chairman Jim Martin cast the dissenting vote, saying he felt the question could be dealt with by existing Board policy which upholds existing laws. In other action the Board approved a contingency fund transfer of $4,808 to complete the Women's Program budget; decided to spend $5,000 on a mailing explaining to boters the LCC tax base proposal on the Nov. 2 ballot (Jim Martin made the only "no" vote, with the explanation that the action was in opposition to the Board's policy of no action on an issue the same night it is presented to the Board; and gave approval to the hiring of a half-time secretary, at $3,000 for the school year for the ASLCC ';enate.

Now, 17 months later, she may be forced to add "convict" to that list if the government gets its way in a Boston courtroom. Saxe. 26, a magna cum Iaude graduate from Brandeis University, is charged with bank robbery and felony murder for her alleged role in a 1970 Brighton, Massachusetts bank heist in which a police officer was killed. The Boston trial, which has caused an ideological rift in some feminist circles, is actually Saxe's second court appearance · since her surprise removal from the American underground after nearly five successful years running from the law. cop, are the sources of the trouble that has surfaced among many feminists, especially those in the East. Some questioned Saxe's true commitment to the lesbian-feminist cause and hinted she was guilty of taking the "violent-male-left" road. The shooting and robbery particularly turned off many women. "Initially, some women were a little bit leery of supporting her because it took place with men and because of the violence involved," explained Donna Rothenberg, an assistant on the legal team which has set out an alibi defense as the trial opens. Feminist author Karen Lindsey, writing in Boston's Real Paper, said, "Many feminists. including some who were emphatically opposed to the kinds of actions Saxe was implicated in as well as those who support them, were alarmed at the politics reflected by the repudiation of Saxe. Sisterhood was being reduced to the level of a club for respectable, law-abiding feminists." ~hortly after her capture, Saxe pleaded "guilty under the context of your laws" to another bank-robbing charge as well as the robbery of a Massachusetts armory where the targets were secret government files. The files, entitled "Operation Geronimo Although some ideological rumbles Bravo,'' detailed plans for a military takeover of Boston in the event of a civil continue, it appears many feminists have disorder. Saxe supporters claim such plans pulled together as Saxe's trial opened before a young, largely male, under exist for all major U.S. cities. 30-year-old jury. "We've got very solid For her action in those two incidents, support in the women's community now," Saxe faces at least seven years in jail said Rothenberg. before she is eligible for parole.

Education key to prevention Rape Tearn offers info By Nancy Hale lnformation packets on rape prevention are now available to Lane County teachers. Compiled by the Associated Lane Interagency Rape Team (ALIRT) as a federally funded program begun in April, • 1975, the packet outlines a 15 step program that includes information on rape history, myths, prevention, statistics, and legislation. Marcia Morgan, community liaison for the Rape Team, spoke a week ago Wednesday at LCC as part of a law enforcement seminar for Co-Operative Work Experience students in that field. Following a short film, "Rape: A Preventive Inquiry," Morgan and a CW E coordinator Mike Hoggan led a discussion on the difficulties the four-woman team encounters while on the job. The team collaborates with the Lane County Sheriff's Department, Eugene Police Department, and the District Attorney's Office. ''Rape is a serious crime and must be discussed seriously,'' stated Morgan. "Our goal is to minimize trauma for the victim through the legal system and to increase public awareness regarding all sexual assaults.'' Morgan further explained that the need for the newly-printed teacher's packets came from the tremendous demand in the community for talks and educational exhibits. Believing that mass education is a key to rape prevention, the team has given more than 300 such presentations in the past 14 months. The 20 page information guide is available, free of charge~ at the Lane County Courthouse, room 100.

The classes are free and open to the public each Wednesday night from 7 to 9 p.m. at the Central Presbyterian Church in Eugene at 15th and Ferry Streets. The public may still join the remaining sessions. According to Wales, the main purpose of the classes, which range in size from 20 to 40 students, are to "de-mystify the law, help people to identify their legal problems, to help them recognize when they do or don't need an attorney, to teach the layman how to use an attorney, and to help people understand the law. The Eugene chapter of The People's Law School, which opened here 4 years ago, is one of a loose national chain of such schools. Classes are sponsored and funded by a U of O Law School student group. Instruction is provided by older law students, explained Wales. who is herself a third year law student and has taught the Landlord-Tenant class. ''The classes are strictly educational,'' she said. "We are prohibited by the Oregon Bar Association from giving any legal advice." The first class was held on September 29, and concentrated on Small Claims Court; what a person can do if sued, and how to win in Sma11 Claims Court.

There's often a day or two of mild fever, and it goes on to a dry hacking cough. The most important treatment for this and any other viral illness is REST. Modern medicine ! 1s no good cures for viral diseases - you need to let your body's defenses ha vc the energy to work for themselves to defeat the virus and heal body damage. The Student Health Center has a pamphlet with good home treatments and more information about colds and flus. When to sec the doctor: If your sore throat lasts longer than a day or two, or hurts a lot, come have a THROAT CULTURE done. If you have a STREP throat, you need antibiotks to prevent possible rheumatic fever or kidney disease. Other secondary infections include sinus infections, tonsillitis, or pneumonia. If you have a high fever, chi11s, yucky cough or severe pain, come see us. WHY DO I HAVE TO WAIT SO LONG AT THE STUDENT HEALTH CENTER?
