Most CETA jobs will be funded

by Sally Oljar

Forty-one LCC CETA employees held on
to their jobs Monday when the college
received word from Eugene CETA officials
that the positions would continue to be

funded.
Last \\t.'l'k the jnbs wne not

The college will sign a new agreement
with the county Comprehensive Employment and Training Act (CET A) program
"within a few days," according to LCC

Personnel Director Hank Douda.
Title II and Title VI employees continue
to be funded, although only 17 of the
o.riginal 31 Title VI positions were picked
up in the new contract. The other 14
employees in the Title VI program were
sent termination notices. The new contract
includes these employees and creates six
new positions in the Title II Add-On and
Title VI Add-On program. The college had
r~quested funding for 32 positions in the
latter two programs. The funded positions
were very low on the college's priority list,
says Dean of Business Operations Tony
Birch.
Two positions were funded in the Title II
Add-On program; jewelry and social
science lab assistants.
Four positions were funded in the Title
VI Add-On program. These are for KLCC
radio, the Women's Awareness Center,
Student Health Services, and Adult Basic
Education.
Both Birch and Douda were disappointed. They had hoped for funded positions
for the new Downtown Center. Douda says
that the college '' still wants the alternative
to choose the positions we want," in the
new contract with CETA officials. But he
did not say whether this would be possible.
The college has agreed to pick up the 10
positions from the defunct Willamette
Science and Technology Center (formerly
Southwestern Oregon Museum of Science
and Industry). These employees, who are
also CETA funded, will continue their jobs
through the LCC Adult Education Department. They will have positions in College
Community Relations, Performing Arts,
Media Production, Office of Instruction,
and Social Science.
The Comprehensive Employment and
Training Act was created by Congress to
combat nation-wide high unemployment.
The original CETA program, Title II
Basic, was created for ''public service
employees." The Emergency Unemployment Act, known as Title VI, created jobs
not based specifically on public service
employment. Title II Add-On and Title VI
Add-On are additions to the two original
programs.
Stevenson says that 400 Lane County
agencies have requested CETA funding
this year, but that only 120 of these
requests could be granted. If specific
positions under the program can't be filled,
the money may be reallocated to employable positions. Congress allocated $12
million nationally for the CETA program
and Stevenson believes that more will be
forthcoming should it be necessary.

The 14 member group goes by the name Student Service Associates (SSA's).
If a student needs an answer, a guide to resources, to find someone or
something, he/she can ask an SSA. If they don't know, they'll find out.
The Associate's are students of varying ages who have gone through detailed
training during the summer to provide a liaison between counselors and
students, says student Diana Gatchell, who participated in the program last

Contract negotiations between the LCC
Administration and the faculty and classified employees' unions are moving through
necessary legal steps. During a "mediation'' period neither the LCCEA (representing the faculty), nor the LCCEF
(representing the classified employees)
was able to reach a settlement with Mil1s
and Associates (representing LCC). An
"impasse" was then declared.
Both groups have now entered a period
of negotiations labelled "fact finding."
Both unions must agree separately with the
college on the choice of an individual fact
finder, chosen from a list of candidate~
provided by the State Employees Relations
Board. Then, after both sides have agree<
on a hearing date, they present their cast .
to the fact finder, and he or she submits tht

strike is taken, the employees arr·
prohibited from striking until 30 days havt
elapsed fo1lowing the rejection of the
report. Both the LCCEA and the LCCEF
must give 10 days notice before a strike is
actually called.
The LCCEA made known its list of
"unsettled issues" in last week's edition of
the TORCH. They are varied and include
topics from salaries and evaluation procedures, to the size of a teacher's work load.
Negotiations concerning the LCCEF are
at a similar standstill, although, according
to union President Darrel Allen, the issue
centers more directly around economic
bargaining points.
He was hopeful,
however, that agreements can be reached
before strike procedures are necessary.
Ruth Heuser, in representing the college
for Mills and Associates, was non-commital in deliniating the biggest stumbling
blocks on the Administration side. She was
reasonably confident that neither side of
the negotiation table prefers a strike, and
is waiting to see what is accomplished in
the fact finding stage before issuing any
further statements.

(CPS) -- Financial aid and campus
protest do not mix. In fact, they don't even
socialize according to federal regulations
on the books since 1966 which stipulate
that students receiving federal financial
assistance never participate in campus
disruptions.

Vice Chancellor Thomas Dutton at the
University of California at Davis announced in June that 18 students arrested in May
would not lose funds altough the arrests
would stand.
Dutton acknowledged the forms but
explained .that the federal statutes were

While there was never an actual
"anti-riot" statement form issued by the
federal government, colleges could require
students to sign such a statement. The
University of California at Berkeley used
the form until several weeks ago asking
students to state in writing that they had
never "directly participated" in a campus
demonstration nor exhibited '' extremely
aggressive behavior.''
After receiving several letters protesting
the procedure, Berkeley ended the practice
but only after more than 4,000 people had
signed this year's anti-riot forms. Frank
Mondrian, financial aid officer at Berkeley,
said that the forms were destroyed and that
no student who signed the statements
would be penalized.
The original regulation, part of the
Department of Health, Education and
Welfare and Department of Labor's'
1966-1967 higher education amendments,
stated that federal funds in the form of
loans, grants, salaries or other remuneration would not be paid to any students,
teachers or researchers who disrupted
normal university business or forcefully
seized university property.
A major section of the regulation was
ruled unconstitutional in January 1977 and
amended to apply to students convicted of
any crime on campus.
The regulation could have a disastrous
effect on students who participated in
campus disruptions last spring. Riots
occurred at Stanford, Berkeley, several
University of California schools, the
University of Massachusetts as Amherst,
the University of Wisconsin at Madison,
Hampshire College in Massachusetts, and
the University of Maryland. As many as
294 students were arrested at Stanford and
if convicted , could lose financial aid. The
protests centered around universities'
investment policies in South Africa.
Universities claim that the anti-riot
clause has no connection with the
demonstrations.
"We don't really care," said Dan
Fitzpatrick, financial aid director at the
University of Massachusetts at Amherst.
Maintaining that there has been •'no
significant demonstration at the university
since 1970," Fitzpatrick said that the
anti-riot oaths did not apply in any case in
Massachusetts.
At Hampshire College, the site of a
four-day sit-in at an administration building last May, Mary Murphy, financial aid
director, claimec;I she had never heard of
the forms and that using such a procedure
had "never been considered."

Suggestions for ASL CC
To the Editor:

Student Government at Lane Community
College (LCC) should not be allowed to die
at the hands of an overly zealous
Administration. An Administration that
seems to believe students should be led
around by the hand and have permission
slips to organize. Students should not have
to rely soley upon the Administration for
organization and activities (social and/or
•. political). This is, or should be, the
purpose of the Associated Students of Lane
Community ColJege (ASLCC).
The crux of the present conflict between
the Administration of LCC (and the Board
of Education) and the·ASLCC is funding of
the latter.
This past summer, the
Administration and the Board terminated
the ASLCC power base by eliminating . a
certain fee paid at registration towards
Student Government. The Administration
believes future monies for the ASLCC
should be ''voluntary student funding via
the election process." This statement
comes from Paul Y amold 's article in the
TORCH of Sept. 22, 1977.
This sounds very peculiar when one
considers the students were not the ones to
strip the ASLCC of power and money (via
the election process). It is also interesting
to note that if voluntary student funding of
student government were to come into
being •'an adequate measure of administrative supervision should be maintained."
This statement was attributed to Jay
Jones, Student Activities director, in Mr.
Yarnold's article m~ntioned above. It
sounds similar to conditions we read about
in_Eastern Europe.
The ASLCC can, and should be, used as
.an organizing and central body for students
on this campus. It should be student run
and maintain a working relationship with
the Administration.
The ASLCC should ~so have a degree of
autonomy in this relationship. It should be
student-funded and student-directed. To

Pot reform "leaders selected
The National Organization for the
Reform of Marijuana Laws (NORML) has
announced the appointment of Eugene

Oregon politics and currently serves as
Chairman of the Lane County Democratic

appointment of John Stewart as Associate
Director of the Oregon affiliate. Stewart,
also of Eugene, is a graduate of the
University of Oregon and former candidate
for the state legislature.
Gordon Brownell, NORML's West Coast
Coordinator in San Francisco, stated that a
principal goal of the revitalized Oregon
NORML affiliate will be enactment of
legislation in 1979 removing criminal
penalties for cultivation of small amount of
marijuana for personal use.
"In 1973 Oregon became the first state
to decriminalize marijuana possession and
the results have been overwhelmingly
positive," Brownell stated. "Since then,
nine other states -- comprising one-third of
the nation's population and land area -have adopted similar laws. The Oregon
experience has been so favorable that
President Carter has asked Congress to
enact new federal legislation, ·modeled
after the law in Oregon."
Brownell cited three surveys taken in
Oregon by ,..J>rug Abuse Council, an
independent, non-profit national foundation based in Washington, D.C., which
demonstrate .. no significant increase in
marijuana use in Oregon since the
decriminalization law was enacted in 1973.
According to these surveys, during the four
years of decriminalization the number of
Oregon adult~ who are current marijuana
users has .increased a mere 3 per cent,
which compares favorably to other states.
The most recent _survey, released earlier
this year, found increasing public support
for further liberalization of Oregon's
marijuana laws -- 58 per cent of all Oregon
adults support the current decriminalization approach or believe marijuana possession and/ or sale should • be legalized
altogether.
Besides Oregon, decriminalization laws
have been enacted in Alaska, Maine,
Colorado, California, Ohio, Minnesota,
Mississippi, New York and North Carolina.
In all ten states, criminal arrest and jail
pen3'ties for possession of smal_l amount of

marijuana have been eliminated, and
replaced by citation-enforced fines, similar
to traffic violations.
''The people of Oregon can be-proud that
our state has once again demonstrated its
leadership in an important area of public
policy,'' Dwyer stated upon his announcement as Oregon NORML C~rdinator.
"The ~uccess of our marijuana possession
law has been amply documented. Since
1973, it has saved millions of dollars in
valuable police and court costs needed to
combat serious crime and it has reduced
much of the hostility and disrespect
towards our legal system which harsh
marijuana laws breed among the young.''

Reform of the cultivation laws is
important, Dwyer explained, because
current laws inadvertently provide an
incentive for users to buy marijuana from

'A Man Called Intrepid'
has spiee and intrigue
by Paul Yarnold

Who can resist a good spy story, particularly one spiced with political intrigue,
assassination plots, enemy code breaking, and psychological sabotage. "A Man Called
Intrepid," by William Stevenson provides real life spy vs. spy; while also revealing some
of the unusual ways that Allied Intelligence obtained Hitler's modus operendi, from 1939
till 1945.
''Intrepid'' also probes deeply into the agonies of decision-making: in the early days of
World War II. It gives the reader a taste of the intoxicating powers shared by Roosevelt
and Churchill, and an empathetic look at these two men resolved to wage a ''secret war''
against Hitler, while most of the world "looked the other way" in favor of appeasement.
Sir William Stevenson -- code name "Intrepid" -- former World War I flying ace,
amateur boxing champion, inventor of radio-photograph_v, and self-made Canadian
millionaire, was chosen to coordinate clandestine Allied Intelligence Operations, by
Churchill and Roosevelt.
Stevenson would spearhead the ''secret war'' both in England and in the United States
(unofficially); at the same time, he shuffled dangerously between London and
Washington (in empty R.A.F. bombers) to allow a personal, verbal dialogue between
Churchill and Roosevelt. "Intrepid" set up shop in New York's Rockefeller Center under
the title of' 'British Security Coordination'' (BSC) with the personal but unofficial support
of Roosevelt.
From this base of operations in the US, and from another secret training ground in
northern Canada, agents were sent into German territory. Some stole documents, some
obtained code books, and the biggest prize of all turned out to be a German coding
machine, called "enigma," which was smuggled out of occupied Poland. One of the most
successful operati9ns planned and coordinated in Canada turned out to be the
assassination of Chief Nazi Executioner Heydrich, who had engineered the German's
launch into Poland, and arranged for the extermination of countless Jews there. The
"hit" was carried out successfully.
In England, while Hitler was ''blitzkrieging'' through Europe, Stevenson had a team of
cryptologists and technicians working in radio communications. By utilizing a network of
underground receivers in occupied territory and the coding tools that had been captured
from the Germans, they finalJy broke the German code. Thus, Hitler's secret orders to
his high command would be in Churchill's hands in a matter of hours, in Roosevelt's
hands in a matter of days. And though Hitler depended heavily on radio transmitted
orders for sucessful "blitzkrieg" raids, he never realized that his "enigma" code had
been broken.~:w:xxx» &L.1ii<><>EJ ,c,.
Fora time, from Stevenson's viewpoint,
German occupation of Great Britain was
inevitable. The British Intelligence was
then preparing to fight a guerilla war on
the homefront, and counting on support
from the New York base of operations.
Stevenson's attention was drawn to
1) delaying Hitler in an invasion attempt
and 2) gaining a U.S. military commitment
in England. (This did not happen till late in
1941 after the Japanese attacked Pearl
Harbor and the Germans declared war.)
Though the breaking of the enigma code
was a distinct advantage in the trands of
the Allies, it posed some moral dilemmas
for Churchill, Roosevelt, and Stevenson.
AND USING

Holograph medallions with depth perceptions that moved when turn·ed, showing
images of a sphinx, a rose, a nymph. They

in diameter, these tempting beauties sold
for $15.00.
Piles of magazines, with names like
"Outer Limits," and "Cinefantastque,"
the latter featuring a cover story about Ray
Harryhausen, the world's foremost purveyor of fantasy on the screen, (Harry
hausen created the monsters in the
"Sinbad" film series) and "Heavy Metal"
a magazine which is rapidly invading the
minds of the fantasy oriented Sci-Fi fans,
were admired and fondled by a thousand or
so "Trekkies."
Hundreds of posters were on display
featuring everything from a photo of C3PO
of "Star Wars." to Giant globules of
light-form energies that attacked and
devoured whole galaxies, from a "Star
Trek" episode.
All were housed in a large room in the
center of the building where dealers
hawked the colorful memorabilia from
"Star Trek," "Star Wars," and "Wizards."
Hordes of people gathered at the Lane
County Fairgrounds at 8:30 a.m., Saturday, Oct. 1, unmindful of the nippy fall
weather.
The anxious youths stood
patiently in line for a chance to view the
spacey activities inside the large building
that usually houses the Picadilly Flea
Market.
The question can be asked, why are so
many attracted to this type of festival?
When asked if he would pay $6.00 for a
blueprint of the cosmos, a young Sci-Fi
fanatic said. "Well, maybe, a freaked-out
Trekkie addict : might buy· anything.''
Snace Con Five, arnved at the Fairgrounds after much media hyp•e, including
press conference at the Valley River Inn,
Sept. 30. The man locally responsible for
bringing the festival to Eugene is LCC
student, Charlie Halbrook.
Present at the festival to sign autographs, and talk to fans, were George Takei, who played "Lt. Sulu" in the "Star
Trek" series, and Grace Lee Whitney
("Yeoman Rand").
Whitney spoke to the ''Trekkies" from a
stage in a huge room that was not quite
half filled. She urged the fans to write to

Paramount Studios and request that the
part of Mr. Spock played by Leonard
Nimoy, be included in the coming "Star
Trek 11" series, which is slated to have its
TV debut in April of 1978.
Nimoy's part was excluded from the new
series because money for the part of Spock
was not alloted due to hassles between
Nimov and Paramount officials.
Whitney said that she hoped the scripts
for the new series would expand her part
and the part of Lt. Sulu. She answered
random questions from the audience about
her favorite "Star Trek" episodes. She
favors the episodes in which her two
children and William Shatner's ("Captain
Kirk") children had parts. Whitney added
somewhat jokingly that Nimoy wouldn't
allow his children to appear for fear that
they might be corrupted.
The future of sex looks good outside the
Earth's atmosphere, thanks partly to
Whitney. As a child she was influenced by
the sexy cJothing of the ladies in the "Buck
Rogers" film serial. Initially the "Star
Trek" series had intended that the ladies
aboard the star shipship Enterprise would
wear long pants.
But Whitney, who
referred to herself as a feminist, encouraged the use of short skirts for the female
members of the crew. She said, "What the
hell, you have to have a little sex appeal on
the ship. The guys are up there for five
years, you have to give them something to
look at.''
Is there room for violence in the future?
Man has always yearned for adventure.
Where can one go that has not already
'been tread upon?
"Space the final
frontier" offers unlimited opportunity.
The words "Star Wars" conjures up
visions of battles in outer space, and
Science and Science Fiction go hand in
hand to manifest a future reality. "May
the Force be with you."
The "Jedi
Knight" thrusts his sword forward to
defend his idea of good. . It is the
adolescent within us that toys with the
future.
The sword of the "Jedi Knight" used in
'' Star Wars'' was on exhibit in the room
where the commercial space-age artifacts
were on display and for sale by companies
with names like. "Intergalactic Trading
Co. "
Space Con Five was held as a primer for
other space festivals.
According to
Halbrook, the purpose of the festival was
"to shake the bugs out."
The festival had the potential of offering
something of value to our culture. The
building that housed the event, was totally
unaesthetic and the acoustics were inaudible. With more funding, and a suitable
environment, future space festivals will

There was a time, not too long ago, when
recorded music was simpler than it is
today. Whole albums were recorded in one
forty-five minute session, with little
orchestration included. Stereo was confined to those preoccupied with ''woofets and
tweeters." Nobody had a tape deck in
their car, although small 45rpm record
players flourished briefly in the late Fifties.
Record albums ("LPs") cost about $2.50.
And, most of the music sounded about the
same.
But dis is da Sebenties, mon, and things
have Diversified.
Music is now a
bil1ion-dollar-a-year industry. Everythings
in stereo (there once was something
called quad, which sounded good- but
unfortunately appeared during the '74
Nixon recession when folks didn't have the
money for two speakers, let alone four).
Auto tape decks are as common as lung
cancer. Over 1,500 albums are released
each calendar year, and it's common for a
record store to have 10,000 titles on hand.
And with the new copyright laws raising
the amount of royalties paid to the
songwriters, a new album can easily set
you back six bucks.
Six dollars an album! the enraged reader

no. You see, there are alternatives to
buying new records.
Some of these
alternatives (such as theft) are not safe or
convenient, some are. Which is where I
come in. You see, music is my heroin.
Sometimes I buy a new record every two
days on the average. _ This antisocial
behavior is punching holes in my checkbook, but it's also given me a good eye, ear
and nose for music. It's also forced me to
shop around for those albums that, for one
reason or another, were overlooked and are
now lurking around in supermarkets and
some record stores waiting to be picked up.
In fact. they're so hard up for cish they'll
let you take them home for about three
-dollars. Which means that, if you're like
me, you can have two for the price of one.
But how do you know which one to buy?
Very seldom will you hear any of these
records on the radio, FM or AM, since
they're not Current Releases. Some are so
obscure your favorite DJ hasn't heard of
them. Now, I don't profess to have a
golden ear, at least as far as American Top
40 goes (which isn't very far), but I can
probably steer you in the right direction.
So as not to offend my audience I'll try to
cover all types of music, with an emphasis

LCC grad wants eo..-bat assignment

by Ed Evans

"We got to fire T.O.D.'s and Dragons
and had a good old time. T.O.D. is a type
of anti-tank weapon, (I don't remember
what the letters stand for). A Dragon is a
missile that you guide with wires. It's also
an anti-tank weapon."
Virginia Burr, an LCC graduate, was
speaking about one of her experiences at
an Army summer camp, where she earned
enough merit points to become the first ·
female Cadet Battalion Commander in
University of Oregon ROTC history. Her
goal is to earn a commission in a combat
branch -- and she's already had airborne·
(parachute) training on a voluntary basis.
Cadet Battalion Commander is equal in
rank to a commissioned second lieutenant.
It is the highest cadet position on the U of
0 campus. Cadet Burr is responsible for
everything '' good or bad whether I know ,
about it or not,'' that happens in the cadet
ranks below her.
So far, she has only been on the job for
one week, but ''loves it. There is a lot of
work, and a lot responsibility, but I know
I'm doing something important."
Basically her job is to see that requests
and orders from mllltary instructors are
carried out. She has a staff of eleven under
her direct command, mostly men.
"New cadets [men] are used to the idea
and don't mind being led by a woman.
Some of the older-regular army types are
still trying to get used to it though."
Cadet positions are awarded by merit
points earned in a summer camp -- Burr
spent five weeks at Ft. Lewis near Tacoma,
Washington.
The camp gave cadets
practical, on-the-spot training. In addition
to a wide range of equipment training
(everything from machine guns to anti-tank
missles), they were also given leadership
tests. Getting her squad and a gasoline
drum across a ten foot gap with three small
planks was one problem Burr drew. She
accomplished the goal in what an instructor
called excellent time by placing two boards
(one wouldn't fit of course) end-to-end,
then moving everyone across. She said it
wasn't hard getting the heavy gas drum
across, but there was some difficulty in

moving the people : "Some of them didn't
think the boards would hold up.''
When she received her current cadet
rank after summer camp, she moved into a
more administrative role. "We're still in
training. When we get a request we fill it
as quickly as we can. (First) ... we give
the instructors our plan.
They either
approve it or tell us to do it again. They
always evaluate the way we handle the
request."
But not all of Burr's training has been
done on the ground. She is one of the few
women to go through parachute training at
ft; Benning, Georgia.
"I loved it. You just float down, it's so
quiet you can't even hear the wind."
Of the five jumps she's made, she says
the night jump was the most dangerous.
They had lights marking where to steer
away from and where the pick-up zone
was. You can't see the ground, all you can
do is get in a landing position and wait for
the ground to hit you . ... A lot of people .
got hurt on the night jump. Many of them
tried to anticipate when the ground was
going to be there; a lot of them guessed
wrong."
Burr says the three-week course was full
of intensive training, most of it endless
"The
repetition of the same things.
training is important. · If you make a
mistake, that's it. After a while it comes to
you automatic and you don't even have to
think about it. On my jump the four second
count was automatic.''
"Jumpers count four seconds, while
expecting the main chute to open. If it
hasn't opened by then, they pull their
reserve chute. "There've been a lot of
improvements in chutes. It's rare if a
chute doesn't open, and there's a new kind
that has never failed in the three years it's
been used.
"They told us that if our chutes don't
work, we're to bring them back so they
could see what was wrong with them."
She smiles at this bit of military humor.

Jimi Hendrix. Any album on a label you

Before Hendrix made it big in the States
he was a studio musician in Europe,
playing rhythm guitar for various jazz and
pop artists. When he died somebody
thought it would be a good idea to resurrect
his material from this period, ostensibly to
''preserve his legacy.'' The only things
preserved, however, were the profits for
the record companies. Most of this junk
bears no relation whatever to his groundbreaking late Sixties work with the
Experience, and probably would never
have been released if he were still around.
In short, these albums are merely

Instructor rescues LCC student
Student Terry Adey recouping from mountain fall

by Michael Riley
graphics by Judy Jordan

One cannot

live by wood
pulp alone
(CPS/ZNS) -- It was bound to happen.
Fierce competition does strange things to
the minds of marketing people.
When high-fiber diets became the health
rage of the year, a volley of high-roughage
products streamed into the stores.
ITI-owned Continental Baking Company
jumped on the bandwagon with a new loaf
of bread called "Fresh Horizons." It's
fiber content - sawdust.
They call it ''finely powdered food grade
cellulose.'' The bread wrappers boast a
fiber content higher, ounce-for-ounce, than
almost any food and a lower calorie count
than most breads.
The Canadian government has banned
the product because of its wood-pulp
ingredients. Here, the Federal Trade
Commission has suggested that it not be
legally called bread, and is investigating
the company for possible deceptive advertising. _Seems as how the label on the
Fresh Horizons package contains the word
"wheat'' displayed prominently across a
wheat field that is being harvested.
While many other breads _use bran, the
outside portion of a wheat kernel, for fiber,
Fresh Horizons uses a non-nutritive plant
fiber.
The Food and Drug Administration is on
their case, too.
They forced the
Continental Baking Company to drop its
medical claims that Fresh Horizons would
prevent such illnesses as diabetes, varicose
veins, · and cancer of the colon. These
unsubstantiated medical claims, printed on
the wrappers, on leaflets distributed in
stores, and in advertising in medical
journals, would make the bread an
unapproved new drug.
After threat of bread seizure from the
FDA, Continental has agreed to change its
tune.
Powdered cellulose is an accepted
ingredient, according to the FDA.
However, nutritionists suggest that Fresh
Horizon's relatively . high price for an .
empty-caloried ingredient could be bypass, ed in favor of a product made with more
nutritional whole wheat and bran.

It's a small world. Sometimes LCC can
even extend to the Rocky Mountains.
Milt Madden, LCC history instructor,
experienced this concept during the
summer.
Madden worked as a ranger in the Rocky
Mountain National Park. "It's located
north and west of Denver,•' Madden
explains, "I've done this for the last 15
summers. With the 'Smokey the bear' hat,
the whole thing."
Part of Madden's job involves rescuing
people who are injured in the park.
Usually the park handles over 40 emergencies during the summer, only 15 occured
this last year. Rescue operations require
as many people as are available. Last
August, Madden was asked to participate
in the rescue of Terry Adey, a former LCC
student.
Adey had been rock climbing near Ouzel
Falls in the park when she slipped and fell
40 feet, suffering serious back injuries
requiring her to be carried out of the
accident site on a stretcher.
Word of the accident was received by
Madden and other park employees in the
early evening. "It's about 20 miles away
from where I was living," he explains,
pointing to a map -of the area. 18 people
were involved with the rescue, Madden
was part of the the '' carry-out crew,'' three
teams of six people who would carry the
stretcher from the accident site down the
trail.

Native American woman
now awaiting trial in
forced sterilization case
An Opinion Piece Prepared By
College Press Service
(CPS) -- Steeltown USA. There is a
landmark case occuring in Pittsburgh, but
don't tell anyone there that. ''You mean
that Indian Thing," commented a woman
from the editorial office of the Pittsburgh
Press. Their court reporter didn't think the
Serena case merited much attention.
But women around the country are
following the odyssey of Norma Jean
Serena, who was sterilized after delivering
her third child. At the same time, he·r
children, including the new baby, were
seized and placed in foster homes.
Serena is charging health and weltare
officials of Armstrong County, Pennsylvania, with a systematic conspiracy to steal her
children and forcibly sterilize her without
consent. If she wins, it will be the first
time forced sterilization has been defined
as a violation of civil rights.
"We've got a really strong case," said
Richard Levine, Serena's lawyer. Through
numerous pretrial battles, he has obtained
memos and depositions which purportedly
document an extensive conspiracy among
health and welfare officials.
Like most conspiracies in bureaucratic
America, the one against Norma Jean
Serena owes more to insensitive ignorance
than actual malice. Serena came to the
attention of the Child Welfare Services
when neighbors complained that she WILS
living with a black man and consequently.it
was dangerous for their children to.play in
the vicinity of her apartment. C~seworkers
investigated and it was their report wt,ich
influenced the doctors to sterilize Serena.
In their '' Statement for Need for Therapeutic Sterilization," only one reason was
listed: 'Socioeconomic.' She was sterilized
because she was poor, Native American
and living with a black man_.
It was August 1970, when Serena
entered the hospital expecting a routine
delivery. It took 3 years of litigation to win
her children back. And now, seven years
later, she is still waiting for Judge Barron
P. McCune to set a court date.

Before Adey could be carried, a "back
board'' had to be placed behind her. '' We
made her comfortable and warm and were
about to roll her on her side to stuff this
board under her when one of the
permanent rangers mentioned that maybe
we shouldn't do it that way,'' Madden
continues. '' So we all got around her and
lifted her up, placing the board under her
instead of rolling her." Later on, after
Adey had been carried out, the doctors told
Madden and some of the other crew
members that if they had done anything
else she probably would never be able to
walk again.

middle of the night, carrying down a
student."
Adey really doesn't remember too much
of the events given above because she was
in shock most of the time. She and
Madden did talk, however, while they
"bounced down the trail."
She was hospitalized for seven and a half
weeks and is now up and walking around.
As far as future plans go, she hopes to
attend Portland Community College next
year.
Over the last few days, according to
Adey, she attended a concert and an art
show. Adey has to move carefully when
she walks since there is a possibility of a
spinal disc severing the spinal cord and
causing paralysis. Additional surgery is a
possibility, a Hherring rod operation," so
she can go horseback riding, skiing and
•mountain climbing again.

Adey and Madden didn't officially meet
until they were going down the trail with
the stretcher. Someone mentioned to him
that the woman was from Oregon and a
student at LCC. "It's quite a coincidence,

Western Baptist to
• 2-2 tie in OISA opener
by John Healy
LCC's men's soccer team battled
Western Baptist to a 2-2 tie Friday
afternoon in the Titans' opening game of
their 1977 Oregon Intercollegiate Soccer
Assoc. (OISA) season.
The Titans looked like they had the game
won as they led 2-1 late in the second half,
but a rebound shot be a Western Baptist
forward knotted the game at 2-2 and ended
the game in a tie.
The visitors from Western Baptist scored
first, at 2: 12 of the first half, but the Titans
came back to tie the game on Forward
Larry Sylwester' s ten yard shot from the left
side of the Western Baptist goal, following
a beautiful assist from Abdul Al-Sudairi.
Sylwester scored again early in the second half to give the Titan 's a 2-1 lead.
Wing George Trano's perfectly executed
corner kick sailed in front of WB's goal and
Sylwester leaped high to-head the ball into
the net for his second goal of the match.
Sylwester's fine performance was tarnished, though, when Western Baptist
scored following a Titan mix-up in front of
their net.
"We were surprised som.e what by
Western Baptist's good play,'' said coach
George G~•prgyfalvy. "although I expected
them to be improved from last year, as all
of their starters from last season are
back. "
According to Gyorgyfalvy, WB came into

Right wing George Trano [in the light-colored jersey] of the men's soccer team was

Martin leads Titans in
Carrie Franklin cc-classic

the game extremely well prepared physically as well as tactically.
"They studied our team's style of play
last year and devised specific tactics to stop
our offense and penetrate our defense."
Western Baptist, playing what the .
Titans' coach call the "kick and go" or long
passing game, was unable to push through
LCC' s defense with any degree of
. authority, as the Titans limited WB to only
seven shots at Lane's goal.
Unfortunately, the Titans' efforts at the
other end of the field on offense were being
stymied by a physically stifling Western
Baptist defense.
George Trano, LCC' s premier forward
and the league's top scorer a year ago, was
never able to really breakaway from WB's
coverage, and the outstanding play of the
visitor's goalie repeatedly thwarted Titan
drives.
''They were bigger than us physically
and they played an extremely aggressive
style of defense," said Gyorgyfalvy.
"We'll just have to improve our physical
condition with more endurance and speed
work.''
The men's soccer team faced Mt. Hood
in an exhibition match on Wednesday
(results were unavailable at press time),
and will go against a team from northern

The women's opening year will be
largely a ''building'' process, according to
assistant coach Bill Theriault.
Only two other commu~ity colleges will
be fielding full women's cross-country
teams this fall -- Clackamas and Central
Oregon -- and Theriault sees Clackamas as
being the toughest opposition.
