Proposed $1.8 million for low-cost abortion service

State looks at Aborti on aid

by Paul Yarnold

A special meeting of the Oregon
Legislative Emergency Board in Salem this
week will determine whether the state will
continue to fund abortions for lower income
women.
Thursday's meeting will center around a
proposal by Governor Bob Straub which
would allocate $1.8 million in state monies
to state health programs which provide
low-cost abortion service to those who are
eligible. Eligibility for state aid has always
been determined by the income level of the
woman seeking the abortion.
Though the Board's legislative decision
will be crucial to Oregon women who
choose to seek abortion referral through
the welfare system. it will also have great
impact on individual<; who are part of
federal Medicare and Medicaid programs,
because of a recent Supreme Court
decision.

That ruling determined that all tederal
aid for abortions is unconstitutional. At the
same time, the Court deliberat~ly left all
individual states with two constitutional
options: To provide limited statewide
abortion referral (without the benefit of
matching federal funds). or to -eliminate
entirely this aspect of state responsibility.
Straub's proposal, if passed, would
maintain Oregon's current policy of paying
for welfare abortions. but would drastically
increase state responsibility for the treatment of women who were previously
covered by federal health care programs.
Until the Supreme Court's ban on
federal abortion funding went into effect,
the federal government paid 90 per cent of
the abortion costs incurred by women in
•the Medicare and Medicaid programs;
Oregon's share was only 10 per cent. Last
year, the state of Oregon spent approximately $135,000 in state revenues to

Restaura nt premiere i,s
a smash:_ing success

continue its abortion programs. while the
federal government provided almost one
million dollars as their share of the burden.
Though the issue is state-oriented, all
the input has not been local. Sarah
Weddinton -- the former Texas legislator
who argued and won the 1973 Supreme
Court decision case which established
·'abortion rights' ' for women -- visited
Eugene last week, and gave endorsement
to Straub's state funding package. While
addressing the Women's Law Forum on
the U of O campus. the current Carterappointee proposed that state health
monies be distributed more equitably.
According to the Oregon Daily Emerald,
Weddington said that if a state pays for
medical treatment of a certain group of
people (whose treatment includes pregnancy expenses), the individuals who seek
abortions as an alternative to child-birth
should get comparable medical attention.

LCCEF returns to
the bargaining table
by Larry Magder
Although the state-appointed FactFinder has yet to submit his report on their
labor negotiations deadlock , the College
Board and the classified employee's union
suddenly announced Tuesday that they
were going back to the bargaining table.
The first session was held Tuesday
evening at the Black Angus Motel.
According to Hank Douda, a college
administrator and member of the Board's
negotiating team, spokespersons for the
two parties met on Tuesday and "the
consensus was that some issues could be
cleared up before the Fact-Finder submits
his report."
Earlier this year, the LCCEF declared
the negotiations at Impasse , in effect
saying that it felt negotiations would be
unproductive. A mediator called in shortly

LCC Food Service students may have launched a successful venture into the
restaurant business with a first class opening of ''The Renaissance Room,''
located in the President's Dining Room.
The food was excellent. Cream of tomato soup was followed by stuffed lake
trout, which looked as appetizing as it tasted. A fresh spinach salad coated with
vinaigrette dressing and lemon meringue pie topped off the meal.
"The Renaissance Room" is softly lit and the accent is on warm fall -colors.
Music · ranged from Buffett to Beethoven but unobtrusively faded into the
background. The familiar noon-hour cafeteria noise was diminished by a firmly
shut door.
The restaurant will be open approximately three days a week. Reservations
must be made 24 hours in advance. Groups will be accomodated with sufficient
prior notice.
Everyone who attended the "invitation only" premiere enjoyed the meal and
the atmosphere immensely. The'l. qave warm fl.po la use and enthusiastic
congratulations to the 18 first year Food Service students on their new effort.·
Make your reservations early and spend the extra money; the food and the
company are well worth your time.

It ....... tJh,es 011. te ASLCC
"Editorial by Sally Oljar

The majority of LCC students has
never been noted for its involveme1tt
or concern in student government
affairs. Last spring less than 300
staclents elected ASLCC officers. There
are over 7,000 aaclents at this campus.
Students should pay attention now, if
they ever will, for which the student
government is trying to get LCC Board
of Education approval.
•• Why? Because if the Board gives the
OK to the ASLCC, students will vote on·
whether or not they want 15 cents per
credit hour added to their tuitions. And,
of course, they should be aware of what
they're voting for.
But if the voter turnout is anything
like it has been in the past, a very small
minority of students will pass a
mandatory fee over 7,000 students.
There is nothing in the rules that says
the ASLCC must have a percentage of
the total head count of students before
they begin a program.
That's probably a blessing to them,
:considering the failure of the voluntary
fee program because of student disinterest, and the low voter turnout in
elections.
The important thing in this proposal
is that students have a choice. The
voluntary fee system failed through lack
of participation, which meant very little
money for the ASLCC coffers. It wasn't
possible to plan any long-range or
expensive programming, no matter how
useful it may have been.
. But before voluntary fees came into
existence a mandatory fee of $4.00 was
added to tuition. This money financed
not only the ASLCC. but the TORCH,

athletics, and student health services.
All of these programs, with the
exception of the ASLCC, have been
absorbed into the college's generat
budget.
In a way the fight over funding has
moved back and forth between two
extremes. The answer to it has finally

Auto Painting

for non-1najors

by Rich Totten
Beginning Winter Term the Automotive
Painting Department may be offering three
or four credit "mini-courses" for nonmajors that will specialize in preparation
and application of all types of automotive
paint finishes, according to Instructor John
Haurigan.
The Auto Painting Laboratory area,
which provides a possible 20 stations for
students to perform their assignment was
assessed by Haurigan as '' one of the best
facilities on the West Coast."
In recent years the Auto Painting
Program (which is essentially separate
from the Auto Mechanics Department) has
been known to do work on students' and
faculty members' cars, but Haurigan 1s
quick to point out that his classes only do so
as part of the program and that it won't be
offered as a regular service.
Any student who might be interested is
encouraged to contact Haurigan from 8
a.m. to 11 :30 a.m. Monday through
Thursday at ext. 369.

I sent them the list of those officials I
wished to see, the places I wished to go,
the industrial and military sites I wished to
view. They complied with every request
except to those in the vicinity of Kaohsiung
which had just been ravaged by Typhoon
Thelma a day before our arrival. After
going through Typhoon Vera just a few
days later and watching a wall of grey
water driven at our refuge by an 1.20 m.p.h.
gale for five hours I can well understand
why that request was refused.
However, our interviews ran the gamut
from Deputy Foreign Minister Chien to
Political Warfare Director General WangSheng, from Press czar Jimmie Wei to· the
Deputy Minister of Economics, and a host
of others. They provided interpreters, a
limousine and driver, and, when necessary, air transportation to the site we
requested. They even flew us very early
one morning by a troop-carryi 1g Flying
Boxcar to the island fortress of Kinmen,
just 1 ½ miles off one of the islands ruled
by the Peoples' Republic, from where ~lso
we could see the Chinese main land, its
people and its military installations through
strong glasses. There we were the guests
of General Sun for an entire day as he became our guide as we traversed the island.
and visited its military installations. There

We ranged freely over the island of Taiwan. We spoke freely. We asked probing
questions. We were constantly asked for
our observations. Private homes invited us
to dinner. One memorable meal was a Cantonese multi-course dinner provided by a
68 year old woman doctor who had studie'1
medicine in old China. She and her family
were delightful.
Honey and I felt a pervasive uneasiness

among all strata of people about the future
of the Republic. President Carter's pronouncements and Secretary Vance's speech
of June 29 concerning recog11ition of Red
China had filled the idand with apprehension about the U.S.'s possible ~olicy
change in the Far East. If the U.S. itcognizes the Peoples' Republic, and duecognizes the Republic (Taiwan) it wo'Jld mean
the end cf Taiwan as a sovereign state and
its eventual absorption into Reei China. The
people are appalled that the U.S. would
square with Carter's policy on .Huma11
Rights. The pall of uneasiness over the
little nation-1/6 the size of Oregon-was
the only thing that kept our second visit to
this magnificent nation and its admirable
people from being totally delightful.

thereafter came to the same opinion. Both
sides agreed that they were fairly far apart.
But according to Evelyn Tennis, - a
classified employee and union negotiator,
bargaining is "worth another try."
She said that the decision to return to
negotiations was initiated by the Board.
''This gives us an indication th.at they (the
Board) may possibly be willing to yield on
issues that they wouldn't yield on before.''
Darrel Allen, president of the LCCEF,
noted that since declaring Impasse, he has
said several times that the union is willing
to return to negotiations.
And Hank Douda said that the Board has
also been willing to return.
The negotiating sessions will be planned
one at a time. At each session plans for the
next will be set, although spokespersons
said the ground rules will probably be the
same as those for the original bargaining
sessions.

Gillman said he would like his sculpture

'The Runner Stumbles' opens the _

by Jan Brown
Photos by Keith Young and
Jeff Patterson
"It's good material, that's
why we're doing it," said
Stan Elberson about the play
''The Runner Stumbles.''
Elberson will direct the play
in LCC's Performing Arts
Theatre, opening Nov. 11.
LCC students who call for
tickets an hour - before the
performance can purchase
the tickets at half price.
"The Runner Stumbles"
played on Broadway in New
York, in 1976 and .according
to Elberson, ''It was successful, but not a splash." It
hasn't any intense sex scenes, and it isn't a musical,
the darling of Broadway.
The plot involves a, priest
who falls in love with a nun;
the nun is murdered and the
priest is accused of the
murder; there are some
stunning court room scenes
in this mysterious dramatic
piece.
''The Runner'' is the first
play by Milan Stitt, who has
done some theatrical directing but mainly has worked in
writers' workshops. He developed "The Runner," as a
matter of fact while with the
Anniversary
•Playwrights'
Workshop at the Berkshire
Theater Festival in Boston.
The play, reports Elberson, gives "a broad treatment of religion.'' It explores
the dilemma of the priest's
and the nun's varying faiths.
Critics have said it is not so
much a murder mystery as it
is a meditation on the nature
of God and the world and the
way people perceive their
relationships to both.
According to critic Clive
Barnes, ''The Runner'' is
"absolutely fascinating and
it does say something, through its transference, via the
structural rigors of Roman
Catholicism. It says I something about the relationship
of man and woman. It got to
me, and I cried."
Duffy Baker, an actor new
to Eugene, will play the
priest, and ··university of
Oregon student Aseneth J urgensen will portray the nun.
The play will be performed
at 8 p.m. on Nov. 11 and 12,
and at 5 p. m. on Sunday,
Nov. 13. It will run at 8 p.m.
Nov. 18 and 19. Tickets are

Barbara Myrick, the Performing 'Arts
music instructor who brought the Student
Segue idea to LCC, says she felt there
weren't enough opportunities for small,
non-conducted musical ensembles to gain
stage experience at Lane. However, since
its inception a year ago, the segue has
grown to include acts from theatre and
dance as well.
According to Chris Bauman, a student
who played in a flute quintet in segues last
year, the segues have brought forth "lots
of performers, but not a large audience."
Bauman and Woideck share the feeling
that watching other students perform is a
good way to get to know them. Woideck

Ken Martin captured his second individual conference cross country title Saturday as
he led the men's team to its seventh consecutive OCCAA conference championship.
Lane scored an amazing 21 points as it took six of the top 10 spots to easily outscore
Clackamas' 67 points, Umpqua's 76 points, Central Oregon's 105 points, Linn-Benton's
111 points and Chemeketa's 165 points (the lowest score wins).
Martin ran the five-mile, rain soaked course in a time of 24:54 to out-distance Kelly
Britz of Clackamas, who clocked-in at 25:04.
"We had Ken run a five-minute mile pace," commented coach, Al Tarpenning. "I put
the reins on him and told him not to run all out. We've got two tough.races CO!Jling up."
'rarpenning also said, "Dave Ma_gness _.gave Britz all he could handle anyway."
Magness battled the whole race with Britz, but was passed with a quarter mile to go.
Magness finished the race in third place with a time of 25:07.
Lynn Mayo followed in 25:20 to take fourth place. Mick Bailus and Bruce Arnold
rounded out Lane's scoring in sixth and seventh places, as they crossed the finish line
together in a time of 25:48. Jerry Hammit and Scott Spruill placed eighth and eleventh in
times of 25:52 and 26: 12, but they did not score since only the top five runners from a
team can score.

The women's volleyball team defeated
host Linn-Benton , in a three-way tournament Friday, but lost to Clackamas CC,
15-6-, 15-2 and Clark Junior College, 15-9,
15-3.
"We had just come off of a really tough
game against Oregon two days before the
tournament," said Coach Marci Woodruff.
The Titans lost to Oregon , 16-14 all three
matches. "We couldn't seem to get it
together at Linn-Benton, we were depressed and underconfident to win."
The Titans lost the first game of the
match to Linn-Benton 15-2, but clinched
the game with set wins of 15-10 and 15-9,
as Naomi Kamasaki served 11 points ,
including the final seven in the deciding
game. Gale Hammack assisted with 14
spikes.
Coach Woodruff also added that ''the
girls were playing rough, they weren't
playing well together, and if one person is
off the whole team is off.' '
The team also suffered an injury in a
game against Clark CC. Setter Kelly Smith
re~ched up to return a hit when the ball
struck her wrist, which resulted in a
primary fracture. It's unknown at this time
when Kelly will return to the court to plav.
The women play George Fox Nov. 3 at
home. "We have no idea what kind of a
team they have," said Woodruff, "each
person will just have to try to play their
best."

"The guys had a super effort_," boasted Tarpenning. "They ran in a group and did the
job."
Tarpenning will now be preparing his team for Saturday's Region 18 Championships, in
Coure d'Alene, Idaho which will feature all of the Oregon community colleges and three
Idaho schools. According to Tarpenning, his team• s toughest competition should come
from the College of South ern Idaho (CSI) , and the defending region champions Ricks
College, also in Idaho.
After the regional meet. Tarpenning and his team wifl be headed for the national meet
in Tucson , Arizona, where he hopes his team will be able to duplicate his 1972 team ' s
accomplishment.
"In 1972, we were national champions," said Tarpenning. "The team right now is as
strong as they were, but the competition is tougher."
Tarpenning feels the foreign athlete is the reason for the tougher national competition.
" Last year's national championship team had two South Africans on the team. They
walked off with it." He added, "We've got the philosophy this year not to be afraid, just
to go after them.''
