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

nyion. ~he added that the whole assembly
looked funny this morning with the basket
over on its side and the balloon filling with

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

by KathleE:n Monje
''I think I'm far more qualified than any of the other
candidates," said Independent contender for Congress, Tonie
Nathan in an Oct. 15 appearance at LCC.
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

There is currently a misunderstanding among veterans on campus
about Veterans Administration regulations, to which the TORCH unintentionally (and unfortunately) contributed in its last issue.
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

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.

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

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."

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,

material in still air such as a room. As the
chemical oxidizes, he added, there is a
transfer of he.a t which increases until the
combustible material starts to smoulder in
the center and eventually bursts into
flames. 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.
Chase speculates that negligence was
the cause of the accident. He also stated "I
didn't observe'' any damage to the room in
which the rags were found and added that
nothing of this sort had ever happened
before.

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.

Schorr defends CIA report 'leak'

Schorr's refusal opened up a nation-wide
debate over reporters' rights to keep their
sources confidential.
In his speech last Tuesday, Schorr
repeatedly referred to the press as an
important part of the government's
checks-and-balances mechanism. 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. "There are two impulses in
American life and they sometimes conflict," Schorr said.

of the wishes of Congress, as "the grossest
arrogance.''
"I'm sorry McCall said that,'' Schorr·
rebutted. "When you have information

For the past several months Schorr's
future has been in doubt; only within the

Marshall stated that in a state-wide
projection the State Veterans Administration had anticipated a drop of 26 per cent. •
For LCC this would have been a drop of 400
students. But, the LCC Veterans Office
has estimated that their loss is approximately 450.
According to Marshall one concept
suggested to raise enrollment is opening

reasons cited for these five-week courses
are assisting students who would rather

Stolen book rate drops
1\\ t~.·

_By Bruno Cohen

The magnetic detection system in use at
LCC's library is successfully doing its job.
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. If the tag, which is hidden in
the binding of the book, is active, it signals
an alarm and locks the turnstile. "We
assume they are honest mistakes,''
Matheson states.

(CPS)--With courses like "Raising Catfish

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.

Ballooning
Continued from page 1
common meeting time for people who are
interested in ballooning as a hobby. 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.

Rep. 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. Prints in both
categories must be at least ten inches on
the longest side. and mounted on a matt
board not to exceed 16 X 20 inches.

Weapons ban·n·e·d:'

bf Kathf Monie
A new policy prohibiting w.eapons on
campus was passed by LCC's Board of
Education at its Oct. 13 meeting.
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

explanation that the action was in

Former ·underground feminist
faces robbery trial in Boston
(CPS)--When Susan Saxe was nabbed by
Philadelphia police in March, 1975, she
identified herself as a ''lesbian, a feminist
and an amazon.'' 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

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. Further
information can be obtained by calling the
ALIRT office at 687-4478.

'' Many people don 't understand that the
law can be a tool as well as a barrier.'' said
Diana Wales, coordinator of classes for The
People's Law School.
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.
On October 6. students examined

Law Librarian, the only non-student
involved in the program, was a two-hour,
two-evening class, held on Oct. 13th and
14th. Information involving what materials
are available in a law library, what they
cover and how to use them was explained.
Last week the subject of the class was
Traffic Court, with discussion of the new
traffic code, changes in precedures,
penalties and the proof needed for
conviction.
Land Use Planning will be discussed
next Wednesday, October 27, Search and
Seizure on November 3, Landlord-Tenant
Relations on November 10, Divorce and
Thereafter on November 17, and Tax Law
on December 1. The tax class will require
two hours and will emphasize the basic
provisions of the capital gains treatment,
income averaging and the relevant forms.

came only 3 minutes into the first half.
They added one in the 29th minute of the
first half, and picked up their third and
final goal with 12 minutes remaining in the
game.
Lane's goals were scored by Larry
Sylvester, who tied the score with a shot 6
minutes into the game, and George Trano,
who booted-in two goals. George's goals
came 20 minutes into the first half, and 30
minutes into the second half.

The match played against Linfield at
McMinn ville was anything but a standoff.
The Titans dominated the game from
beginning to end as Linfield hardly touched
the ball.
Abdul Alsudairi led off Lane ' s scoring
with a magnificent shot from 30 yards out,
with 7 minutes played. Thirteen minutes
later, Jack Debrick scored LCC's second
goal on a fast break. Larry Sylvester
scored the Titan's next two goals--the first
one with 13 minutes remaining in the first
half, on a fast break, and the second one,
32 minutes into the second half. George
Trano added Lane's last goal with 10
minutes remaining.
Coach Gyorgyfalvy was extremely
pleased with LCC's aggressive play and
had this to say about Linfield, ''They had
good players but were a second behind in
getting into the ball.' '

"The only feedback requested of participants of the program," Wales stated, "is
the filling out of a questionnaire which
enables the instructors to improve the
quality of the classes.'' The most tangible
evidence of the school's success has been
'' ... the many phone calls from those who
have experienced successful litigation in
Small Claims Court," she added.
Anyone wishing more information about
these classes or the new schedule which
will start this winter can contact Diana

Common cold back again for many

Vol. 14 No. S October 21, 1976

by Student Health Services Staff

Inside:

We're seeing a lot of the "common cold" already tl\is fa11 - the most
recent is a nasty thing that starts
with sore throat and stuffy nose.
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?
We really ARE seeing more
patients this year than ever before,
and many of them come during the
middle of the day. You might be
seen more quickly during the early
morning hours - from 8:00 to about
9:30 a.m . - whC'n we're all fresher, or
in the later afternoon from 3:30 to
5:00 p.m.
