From Attorney General:

Board seeks legal ruling
by Steve Myers
of The TORCH

Legal confusion reigned following a
closed session of the LCC Board of
Education during its meeting Nov. 8.
And, in the absence of the college's
attorney, Ed Harms (who had left the
meeting prior to the flosed session), the
board possibly committed a procedural
error after misunderstanding a question
raised by a local news reporter.
The board met in a one-hour closed
session during the meeting and when it
re-opened the meeting to the public, a
motion was quickly proposed by board
member Ed Cooper asking the board to
adopt LCC President Eldon Schafer's
evaluation and place it in his personnel file.
Cooper also requested that the board ask
for an Oregon attorney general's ruling on
whether the evaluation is public record or
a confidential personnel matter.
Mike Stahlberg, a Eugene RegisterGuard reporter, asked the board to read
the evaluation of the president since the
document was before the public in an open
meeting.
Board Chairman Larry Perry misunder-

stood Stahlberg's request, thinking that he
wanted Cooper's proposed motion reiterated. Perry repeated the motion and then
called for a vote on the proposal, which was
then unanimously passed by the board.
Stahlberg then repeated his question to
the board, this time pointing out that since
the evaluation was approved in an open
meeting it is now part of the public record.
Perry apologized for misunderstanding
Stahlberg' s original question and indicated
that it is the board's intent to request the
attorney general's opinion on the matter .
before releasing the context of the evaluation. ·
Cooper explained, "We are extending
the same courtesy to the president that we
would extend to any (college) staff member.''
Board member Charlene Curry added,
"We are not trying to suppress any
information. All this board is asking for is
an attorney general's ruling."
In other-business, the board:

• Accepted with regret the resignation of
Keith Harker, associate dean of instruction, and commended him for his signifi-:
gant contributions to the college.
• Appointed Judy Dresser as acting
associate dean of instruction for the period
of Nov. 6, 1978 through June 30, 1979.
• Applauded ASLCC President James
Cox's presentation of the student governments 1978-79 objectives. [See President's

'For the betterment of humankind'

column on The Second Page for details.]

The rebel surfaced again, and she
quit.
''Then I went to work driving a
school bus and I loved it. I loved the
kids. I loved the driving. And I loved
being outside.

• Saw a visual presentation, given by
Tony Birch, dean of administrative services, explaining the Oregon Information
Exchange Procedures (OIEP) program and
the progress being made on it. According
to Birch, OIEP is a data collecting and
computer processing project in which
information is collected from all of the
community colleges in the state.
The state legislature required th.is
project and LCC is serving as the site for
putting all the data together and running
the computer-produced reports.

Feature by Frank Babcock
of The TORCH
Donna Rubick is, by nature, a rebel.
At 16, that rebellion screamed
viciously out of a scowling face at the
law, her parents and the powers that
be.
But the events of the past ten years
have offered change and today, at 26,
Donna has displaced hate and bitterness with an intense set of wellingrained values and objectives that
she hopes can promote ''the betterment of humankind .. "
A tall order -- often attributed to the
idealistic.
But her steady blue eyes reveal no
idealisms or false illusions.
She speaks softly about the love, the
personal growth and her own happi:
ness that exist in the realities of her
life -- her love of art, her two children,
and her association with the main
motivating force in her life, the Baha'i
faith.
Last year, after a divorce, she came
face-to-face with the realities of being
a single mother. With no recent job
experience, she found it difficult to
crack the job market.
And when she finally did, she
wasn't happy .
"I took a position teaching nutrition
for the Oregon State University Extension Service. It was awful . They told
me to say that white bread was just as
good as whole wheat. I didn't believe
it and I felt like a hypocrite ."

~y Rockie Moch.
"While I was doing that, I took an
art class and a child development class
at LCC. Then a friend suggested that I
apply for a grant -- and approval of the
grant opened up the door.''
The door opened into the LCC Art
Department where she is now preparing for a career in commercial art.
"It is important for me to develop
my art work. Art is an important factor
in the growth of mankind . It is a piece
of culture that uplifts humanity . . . it
uplifts the soul. . . it makes people
happy .

"I don't think people realize the
enduring power of art."
Donna also holds a work-study
position with the TORCH as the
advertising design person, where she
has the opportunity to exercise her art
skills. More than once, after a full day
of classes, she has spent eight or more
hours on a Wednesday night perfecting a TORCH layout sheet.
At home, she puts the same
intensity into sharing with her children.
'' It is important to show children
how to love through loving them . .
.and showing them how to grow . . .and
how to be spiritual entities. The world
is suffering from a shortage of love and
the world's survival depends on creating more love. ·
And love is stressed by the Baha'i
faith that Donna has followed for eight
years.
''The Baha'i teaches you how to love
-- and how to channel your energy in a
positive direction . Without it, I could
not be doing all the things I'm doing
now.
"I'm under a lot of pressure and
there is a lot happening in my life. But
it's all positive and I'm growing. I'm
extremely happy -- happy about the
changes I'm going through.
"For a long time I was saying, 'I'm
trying to do this' or 'I'm trying to do
that.' Now I'm not trying -- I'm doing.
'' I have no time anymore to be
negative or unhappy.''

This week the ASLCC announced its objectives to the Board. These
objectives dealt with the five following areas: Understanding, communication,
atmosphere, reorganization ·and support of the other community colleges in
Oregon.
The ASLCC hopes to gain more understanding of LCC dasses and instructors
because informed students are essential to a fair and efficient educational
system.
Instructors and course booklets should enable students to obtain accurate
information about the quality and the content of the courses and to facilitate
value comparisons. We will attempt to accomplish this by publishing course
and faculty descriptions. This publication will be a combination of information
provided in course outlines and other information that the students feel is
needed for the selection of their courses. We feel it is possible that this
publication could replace the present department catalogs.

Confused by the results?

Pollsters never understand Oregon

Editorial by Sarah Jenkins
of The TORCH

Oregon is not strictly a Democratic state.
Nor is it strictly Republican.
Oregonians do not always vote according
to their pocketbooks. Nor do they always
let their conscience be their guide.
But more importantly, Oregonians are
not always swayed by majestic rhetoric -when they go to the polls they are not
representative of the "ignorant masses"
politicians sometimes believe them to be.
Confused? So are the pollsters and
prediction-makers who like all voters to fit
into nice, neat little catagories. Oregon
has once again proved to be a maverick.
The biggest surprise last Tuesday was
the defeat of both State Measures 6 and 11.
No one had really even considered that a
possibility. While candidates were trying
to explain what would happen if one or
another of the measures passes, no one
thought voters would be intelligent enough
to say "no" to both of them.
But they did. Although the margins of
defeat (four percent on 6 and 10 percent on
11) were not exactly overwhelming, they
still represent a large number of Oregon
voters who want tax relief -- but not in the
form of a ''Californicated'' limitation or a

hastily compiled tax shift.
For those who wanted to see incumbent
Democrat Bob Straub serve a second term
as governor, the easy win of Republican
Vic Atiyeh may have been a surprise. Even
veteran Oregon-watchers were a little
amazed by the almost 90,000 vote margin.
On state measures, the prize for the
widest vote margin goes to Measure S, the
denturists' bill. Slightly over 77 percent of
the voters said ''yes'' despite an expensive
campaign mounted against the bill by the
state's dentists. Apparently voters were
not conned into believing that licensed
denturists are being given a free rein to
make you ugly.
Measure 8, which reinstates the death
penalty in Oregon, also passed. The
surprise was not so much in the passage,
but in the 28 percent margin. Pollsters had
predicted that the "eye for an eye" and the
"two wrongs don't make a right" schools
of thought were about even in the state.
Another disappointing vote margin was
on Measure 7, which would have prohibit- •
ed state funding of abortions.
The
measure was barely defeated by a two
percent margin. A well-organized and
vocal anti-abortion campaign clearly had
some effect, but voters again reacted with
intelligence rather than emotion.
So what does this election say about the
voters of Oregon?
Not too much in
general, unfortunately. But, in specifics, it
does seem to imply that we look at the
issues and think before we vote.
And that boggles the minds of the
pollsters.

Objective number two is to increase communication of the ASLCC- with
administration, staff and students. As part of this we hope to become involved
in the collective bargaining process between the administration and staff.
During these negotiations, many items that directly affect the students are
discussed. Some of the areas are tuition, quality of education, the student's role
in institutional governance and strikes. A wide range of student participation
possibilities exists, from students seated at the table participating to formal
consultation of the students by the two parties prior to going to the table.
Hopefully one of these ways will be initiated when negotiations begin again this
March.
Another item is the establishment of an evaluative system which would be
negotiated as part of the faculty contract this spring. Evaluations will increase
information about required work performance and encourage communication
between employee, supervisor and student. The purpose of such an evaluation
is to identify strengths and weaknesses, provide a basis for and assist in
obtaining self-government and to assist the college in improving.
Another way of improving communications is by moving the ASLCC office
facilities to the cafeteria area. This would enable the ASLCC and the SRC to
combine. The move would facilitate more interaction and understanding of the
students' views and opinions about the college. This has been done by a
number of community colleges and has proven to be a most beneficial
undertaking.
Our third objective is to create a desirable atmosphere on campus that
promotes the image of the institution and makes the campus a desirable place
to be. These services include: Legal Services, lounges, housing, photo ID
program, recycling, child care and transportation referral. We will also be
providing cultural activities such as: Informative lectures, performances, film
programs, workshops, concerts and clubs-all geared especially toward the
students' interests, needs and wants.
The .fourth objective is reorganizing the student association. It is our feeling
that the governmental model by which we function is not appropriate for the
ASLCC. A better model for us would be that of the LCC Board of Education.
This type of student association would consist of an elected board of students
representing each department; they would appoint students to carry out
management and services.
Appointed students would consist of President and Directors of Administrative Services, Publicity, Finance, Cultural Events and Services. This reorganization would enable the students to participate more extensively in the affairs
of LCC.
Objective number five is participation in the administration of Community
Colleges of Oregon Student Associations and Commissions (CCOSAC) and
assistance in the exchange of ideas and experiences of the community colleges
of Oregon. CCOSAC is a state organization designed and developed to act as
the collective voice of the students in Oregon's community colleges. It
represents student associations of the 13 community colleges. A main objective
of CCOSAC is to share ideas and experiences of mutual concern.

Union leader says pay rateoutnioded
News Feature by Steve Myers
of The TORCH
"I would like to see more non-contracted
part-time teachers get part-time contracts," said the head of the LCC faculty
union last week.
Delta Sanderson, a language arts instructor holding the LCC Education Association presidency this year, says she
doesn't think the college is trying to cheat

• "The pay for teachers who are not
contracted is considerably lower than it
should be. I don't think that it's so much
that anyone (the college) is trying to cheat
someone. It's simply' that the pay scale on
which part-time people are paid their
hourly pay is one that was set up a number
of years ago, and it has not gone up with
the cost of living increases as the - other
(contracted) pay scale has gone up."

'The pay for teachers who are not ~ontracted
is considerably lower than it should be.'
part-time instructors, but she says the
part-timers may be underpaid and overworked because of the way the college
contract and pay scales were e:-itablished
years ago.
She feels that if the part-timers were to
receive contracts and be paid on a
pro-rated basis of what full-time instructors actually make today, these problems
may be reduced. . Sanderson commented on these two
basic inadequacies in the treatment of
part-time, non-contracted instructors:

Sanderson says that when the original
non-contracted pay scale was set up it was
around 85 percent of what contracted
faculty made. Now, she says they make
about 70 percent of the full-time hourly
wage, when pro-rated.
• The work load is the second inadequacy
she sees. She says it may be inequitable.

"In this department (Language Arts) we
have two part-time people teaching three
composition classes each. They have 30

people in each of those classes---that's 90
students. A full-time load in this department for a person teaching only composition is 100 students or four classes of 25
students.
"These people are teaching nine-tenths
of a full-time load and their pay is only
about 70 percent of a full-time instructor's.
It's almost inhuman to ask them to teach all
those classes---to come in here and spend
five or six additional hours counseling
students and even spending more time
reading composition papers. Therefore, at
times the part-time load is inequitable.''
In the Oct. 18 meeting of the Board of
Education, Sanderson objected to a profile
of instructional staffing that President
Eldon Schafer presented.
When analyzed, t~e profile indicates
that non-contracted part-time instructors
make up only 16. 7 percent of the teaching
staff when figured on a "Full Time
Equiv~lent" (FTE) basis. (One FTE in-

middle of her lane. There were other
joggers running in the other lane, several
feet behind her, according to Fjerkenstad.
There is an incline as Frontage Road
approaches 30th Avenue, and as she
neared the top, Fjerkenstad said, she saw a
car leave 30th Avenue and drive onto th.e
access road at a speed which she estimated
to be between SO and 60 m.p.h.
In her rear -mirror, she said she saw the
other car's brake lights go on as he neared
the joggers in his lane. According to
Fjerkenstad, the other driver skidded in
some gravel, due to the downgrade of the
road and his fast speed. She said she saw
his car go off the road and flip over. At that
point, Fjer~enstad said she stopped her car
and she and a jogger went to see if Hadjarizadeh was all right.
Fjerkenstad said she is concerned about
a possible hazard to the jogging classes
using Frontage Road, as well as drivers on
that road. ' ' I don't want to blame the
joggers, I just don't want to see them
hurt," said Fjerkenstad. She added, "I
saw a potential for a bad situation [which
was] prevented by luck and timing."
• Fjerkenstad said she talked to the
Athletic Director of LCC, Dale Bates, and
he said that jogging cla-sses had been using
the road for two or three years and no one
had ever been hurt on it.

Ca'r flips at entrance; joggers blamed
by Deborah Terrana
for The TORCH
A car flipped over an embankment at the
top of Frontage Road at approximately
11:40 a.m. on Wednesday, Oct. 25,
according to a witness who was traveling
on the same road.
Hamid Hadjarizadeh, a student at
LCC, was the driver of the overturned car.
According to Hadjarizadeh, he was driving
east on the access road off 30th Avenue
known as Frontage Road. He said he was
driving down the road when he saw a car
driving towards him, in his lane. Hadjarizadeh said the car crossed over into his
lane to pass a group of joggers that were in
the westbound lane. In order to avoid
hitting the other car head-on, Hadjarizadeh
said he swerved to his right and, because it
was "sandy or something,'·' his car flipped
and went over the embankment.
Although Hadjarizadeh was not injured,
he said that his car was totaled. As far as
his personal well being, he said, ''I was
lucky that time and really happy.'' The
other car never stopped, said Hadjarizadeh._
Susan Fjerkenstad, secretary in the
Mass Communications Department, said
she was driving west on the access road
when she witnessed the accident. She said
she was driving quite slowly because a
jogger was coming toward her in the

structor, or the total combination of
part-time instructors who are carrying the
work load equal to that of one full-time
instructor, is one FTE, Schafer later
explained.)
College administrators classify instructors in one of two ways. First, teachers may
be either part-time or full-time. A full-time
instructor must teach a minimum of 15
class hours or the equivalent; anything less
than that is considered part-time. Second,
contracted instructors are those who teach
more than half-time who have a contract
with the college. Non-contracted instructors teach less than half-time and generally
are hired on a term-by-term basis.

Al Tarpenning, jogging instructor, said
he has his classes use Frontage Road for
their hill work. According to Tarpenning,
the students are instructed to jog on the
side of the road , not in it.
Fjerkenstad said she had heard of an
LCC teacher who had a jogger dart out in
front of his car about two weeks prior to the
accident she had witnessed. She said she
felt that the other incident helped show
that there could be a danger with joggers
using Frontage Road.
The teacher referred to was Dan
Hodges, sociology instructor. Hodges said
about three weeks ago he was driving on
Frontage Road while three or four men
were jogging in the opposite lane, on his
left, facing traffic. As he drove by th~
joggers, Hodges said, one ran across the
road, in front of his car, to the opposite
side.
According to Hodges, there was , no
accident because he saw the jogger well
ahead of time. He feels it is safe for jogging
classes to use Frontage Road as long as
they are on the. left, facing traffic, and
follow precautions. His only suggestion
was that they might jog single file and just
be aware of traffic.

"If you deal with numbers you can come
up with this (profile)," exclaimed Sanderson in her statement to the board. " But, if
you deal with people it is entirely
different.. .you're talking about partpeople. "
In an interview with The TORCH
Sanderson elaborated on her objections to
the board and listed some inadequacies in
the present treatment of part-time noncontracted instructors .
Sanderson explained that one has to look
at the actual number of teachers in a
department before one can make a
comparison of any kind.
" This is where Dr. Schafer and I disagree
on the memo that he sent out at the board
meeting," she said. "What he was doing
was, in effect, a very managerial numbers
game: He was saying if you produce so
many FTE and you divide that FTE by the
number of teacher hours it takes to produce
it---then you've got that many teachers.
"What he was doing, in effect, was
requiring two or three people (instructors)
to be here in body to produce a numerical
FTE teacher.''
Sanderson indicates that she objected to
that "because I think it's much more
logical, in my mind, to look at the people
you're dealing with rather than a bunch of
artificial mathematical computations.''
She also added that the disagreement
"is nothing to get worried about. It's just
two different ways of looking at a situation.

ASLCC recognizes women's group

bJ Bob Waite
for The TORCH

Women for Equality (WE), a women's
support club at LCC, was officia])y recognized at last week's ASLCC meeting.
Kasse Daggett presented the club's
goals to the nine student senate members
who were present at the meeting. Daggett
said that the 11-member WE will work to
improve women's services, resources and
activities at LCC. She said that the group's
immediate goal is to bring a speaker or a
program on women's issues to LCC.
Brian Glendinning suggested investigating the need for more bicycle parking
facilities and storage space for students'
books and other belongings.
Other actions taken by the ASLCC were
ratifying a new Student Sen!tor, appoint-

•

ing a new Publicity Director and increasing
the ASLCC president's hourly wage.
,
• Student Publicity Director Bruce Asztalos resigned because he will be leaving

ASLCC Action:
• O.f.ficial recognition of
Women for Equality
• Approved a pay increase
.for president

Oregon. Former Housinj! Coordinator
Michael Murphy was appointed the new
publicity director.
.
• Brian Glendinning was ratified as Student Senator to fill one of the four vacant
seats. With the ratification of Glendinning,
there are now four senators and three
vacant seats.
• The final item on the agenda was a cost
of living wage increase for the president of
ASLCC. ASLCC President James Cox
explained that because of the responsibility
and difficulty of being president he felt that
an hourly wage increase to $3.70 would be
appropriate. Cox is paid for 15 hours per
week.
ASLCC meetings are held on Wednesdays at noon in the Board Room of the
Administration Building. The meetings are
open to the public and the ASLCC
welcomes anyone who wishes to attend.

Students dabble in market
with$20,000'funny money'
by Linda Davis

for The TORCH
Students in LCC's Investments class
wagered $20,000 of "funny money" into
the stock market this term as part of an
in-class simulatiop.
Ten thousand do])ars was invested in
student-selected securities and $10,000
was invested completely at random, according to Instructor Gary Rholl, but the
students are not graded on how their
investments turn out. It is possible, he
says, for a student to more than double the
value of holdings in selected securities but
the random investments don't usually do
as well.
•
A few years ago one student was so
stimulated by the class and some actual
investments that he made enough money
during the term to buy a new Porsche and
pay the rest of his college tuition, Rholl
says. He later graduated from the U of 0
and bought into a fast-food franchise.
Although Rholl says this is an exception,
many other students have also done well on
their own. He maintains that they have the
insight to assess how outside events will
influence the stock market.

Students in the class learn how current
events, such as President Carter's recent
policies on inflation, affect the stock
market. Students learn how to predict what
the stock market will do in such situations.
Rho]) says that the students are usua])y

According to 'Rholl, the class provides
students with general knowledg~ of various

as real estate, insurance, bonds, mutual
funds and the stock market. He also invites

• Norman Rockwell is dead at the age of 84. The internationa])y renowned illustrator
died in his Massachusetts home late Wednesday evening. Rockwell was best known for
designing some 360 covers for the "Saturday Evening Post" during his long career.
• Some opponents of the successful measure to reinstate the death penalty in Oregon
are asking the Attorney General's office ·if the measure might be in violation of the
state constitution. Republican Representative Dave Frohnmayer and Democratic
Senator Ted Kulongoski, both of Eugene, are questioning whether the law would violate
a section of the Oregon Constitution that says criminal sentencing should be based on
reform, rather than revenge. Since the measure· would become part of the Oregon
Revised Statutes and is not a constitutional amendment, it could possibly be overturned
by the courts.
• Oregon Governor-elect Victor Atiyeh is wasting little time adjusting to his future
office. Atiyeh says he will ask the 1979 Legislature to pass a property tax relief measure.
Atiyeh also claims that he will make appointments in his administration based on ability,
rather than party affiliation. Meanwhile, lame duck Governor Bob Straub is planning a
vacation in Arizona, and says he has no plans to re-enter public office.
• Philadelphia's balloting on Tuesday may have been marred by violations of the Civil
Rights Act. A federal attorney says that a grand jury is investigating reports of a
'' selective breakdown'' of voting machines in black areas of the city. City officials say
nearly 400 machines broke down during the elections.
• Lionel Hollins sank two free throws with 25 seconds left as the Portland Trailblazers
survived a fourth-quarter comeback and squeaked out a 112-109 victory over the Boston
Celtics last night. Tom Owens led the Blazer attack with 23 points, with Hollins and
Dave Twardzik hitting for 21 each. · Portland is now 7-5 for the year, while Boston
dropped to 2-9.
• Spurned by passage of Ballot Measure 5, the denturism bill, a local body and fender
shop owner has started a petition drive of his own. If the drive is successful, a measure
would be placed on the 1980 ballot asking Oregon voters to anow body and fender
workers to make and fit false noses, ears, and genitals. Hyman Buster, sponsor of the
petitions, says:"If a toothmaker without a high school education caf! be allowed to fit

Pregnaney deserves professional care
by Dr. Staywell
and the staff of Student Health Services

The ads are pretty. The ads are in all the
current magazines. The ads cost a lot of
money. What ads? The ones that advertise
Home Pregnancy Tests!
Our concern is that a lot of money can be
spent for those testing kits, which are
readily available in dru~ stores, for a test
which may or may not be completely
reliable.
The September newsletter of the
Planned Parenthood Association of Lane
County had an article with which we
readily concur. We have asked and
received their permission to copy the
article. We f~l it is dependable information.
HOME PREGNANCY TESTS
A question frequently asked of our
pregnancy testers is, "What, about those

new home pregnancy tests-are they any
good?" The question is legitimate, since
most of our clients have heard only about
the test's positive aspects, emanating from
the mass advertising for the products.
Warner/ Chilcott
manufactures the
"e.p.t." or Early Pregnancy Test, and it
currently se11s in many local drugstores for
$8.95 to $11.95. Our experience so far has
produced the following list of pros and cons
on the value of the test:

PROS
• An at-home test is definitely an advantage to a woman wishing to maintain her
privacy. Only the druggist n~ed know,
• A shy person would be more apt to test
herself than to call for a test at a clinic. At
the very least, this offers her the advantage of early detection of a pregnancy.

Federal, State financial aid
reaches 3,000 LCC students

by David Madeira for The TORCH

Three million dollars in financial aid has
been distributed to 3,000 students every
year for the past three years at LCC.
Francis Howard, director of Financial
Aid, explained that most of the financial
aid money comes from the federal government, with state contributions and guaranteed loans making up the difference.
Howard added that if the federal funds
were not exhausted by the end of the year,
then the following year they would be cut
back by the amount that wasn't spent.
For this reason the Financial Aid
Department, when figuring its budget for
the coming year, will overcommit itself 30
percent on loan commitments and 75
•percent on work study programs. The
student drop-out rate makes up the
difference for the overcommitted budget,
says Howard. Howard, who has been with
LCC for 13 years, says, ''We've had to
learn from experience," referring to the
drop-out rate and budgeting.
The Financial Aid Department operates
from three different funds, which are: loan
fund, grant monies and the work study
program. The loans and grants may be
state or federally insured or funded, but to
qualify for a State Need Grant or a bank
loan, a one-year residency is required.
Loan and grant monies are awarded
throughout the year. But for prime

consideration Howard recommends that
students file grant applications sometime
in February, when the new applications are
received, to apply for a grant for fall term. ,
Howard did say, however, the financial aid
office has been able to fund a11 eligible
applicants through July 1 for the past three
years.
The work study program is not available
on a year-round basis, but must be filed for
early in the year-February through Julyto be considered for work study in the fall.
Work study is usually a contributing
element in a student'-s total financial
assistance ''package.'' t.
There are other types of loans and grants
having various requirements. Marilyn
Bader, financial aid specialist, suggests
that students ask questions to fully
understand the financial aid program and
how it works. There is a "Financial Aid
Handbook" available at the counter of the
Financial Aid Office, located on the east
end of the second floor of the Center
Building. The booklet is a handy reference
to the types of financial aid offered, special
requirements and how financial aid is
determined.
Further information may be acquired at
the Financial Aid Office or by calling the .
school number, ext. 225.

Hopps, Darker, Case

Administrators leaving jobs
by Linda Davis
for The TORCH

equipment is used strictly for administrative purposes.

Three top administrators are leaving
their positions at LCC---two of them
permanently.
Joyce Hopps, associate dean of instruction, is taking a nine-month leave, while
Keith Harker, associate dean of the
Division of Instructional Services is going
into private business. Lewis Case, director
of campus facilities, is retiring.
Hopps has been accepted to participate
in a federally funded fellowship program at
Ohio State University, which covers effective training for coping with occupational
stress. She will also publish a monograph
covering the study. Her last day at LCC
was Nov. 2 and she will be back in August.
She taught psychology at LCC and has
been an associate dean for five years.
Harker plans to work in his photo-typesetting, word processing and printing
business in Coburg. He will leave Nov. 30.
One reason for his decision to leave is the
'' change in organizational structure at
LCC. Emphasis needs to remain on an
instructional basis," he says, and he cited
a change in the use of LCC typesetting and
word processing equipment as one example: Last year, says Harker, the classes
taught about 90 students but now the

''Working at LCC has been challenging
and exciting. I've had opportunities here I
wouldn't have had in other schools. It's the
neatest place I've ever worked," he says.
"But the rewards for administration at
LCC have been lacking in the last two
years, because of changes in myself and in
the college."
Harker has worked in education for 22
years and has been at LCC for the last 12½
years.
Case is retiring to start a coffee store and
jewelry wholesale business 'in Newport,
explaining that he wants to relax the pace
of his life.
Case has taught communication skills
and served as dean of instruction for six
years before accepting his present position, for a total of 12 years. He says, "I
have enjoyed having a part in starting the
college.'' He also taught at the University
of Pittsburg and was president and
vice-president of Ohio Valley College in
West Virginia.
Case will leave LCC at the end of March
and would like to do some opal mining in
Australia for his wholesale jewelry business.

CONS
• The test is approximately twice as
expensive as the test offered at Planned
Parenthood of Lane County [or the LCC
Student Health Services].
• If a woman receives a positive result, she
would probably want to contact either a
physician !or prenatal care or an abortion
facility. In either case, the medical staff
would want to repeat the test, resulting
in an extra expense.
• The e.p.t. involves a two-hour sedimentation process. Any slight movement
of the sample could possibly invalidate
the results.
• The at-home test is being conducted by
someone who is not experienced at
running such te~ts and has an emotional
investment in the result. Although both
of these factors are difficult to measure,
they influence the test's accuracy.
• • As a matter of practice we follow up our
testing by encouraging clients to seek a
gestational exam within 10 days. This
allows a clinician to check for many
conditions, including ectopic pregnancy.
This is a condition which can be fataland is undetected by the at-home test.

• The directions included in the kit do not
advise against the ingestion of a wide
variety of drugs and medications which
tend to invalidate the results.
• Lastly, some early statistics have indicated that the e.p.t. test is producing
about 20% false negative results. In
other words, even if a woman were to get
a negative result, there would stilt be
about one chance in five that she is
pregnant.
Pregnancy tests are available at the LCC
Student Health Services for $4. It must be
45 days from the first day of the patient's
last menstrual period for the test to be
valid. Testing is done on a specimen of
early morning urine. For people who are
anxious to know sooner whether they are
pregnant or not, a referral can be made to a
downtown lab for a blood test which is valid
10 days after conception. This test will cost
about $18.
Both the Planned Parenthood Association and the LCC Student Health Services
recommend to their clients that they save
money by consulting with them about a
pregnancy test.

Cyclo-cross is a cross-country bicycle race in which competitors
ride their bicycles over a rugged, all terrain course. In places it is
impossible for the cyclists to ride and they must carry their bikes
over or around obstacles.
This year's course had a gravel pile to run through, many waterfilled indentations, numerous steep uphill inclines, a section of
muddy ''logging type'' trail and a number of fallen logs to
maneuver around or climb over; the course even had a few level
concrete and asphalt sections to ride on.

LCC's Cyclo-C1

The course, which many called the most grueling ever, requires
senior competitors to complete 11 laps of the all-terrain, two-mile
circuit.
• This year's District 29 (Oregon-Idaho) Cyclo-Cross meet was won
by Eugene's Mark Schwyhart, his second in a row, with a time of
one hour, 13 minutes and 52 seconds (1:13:52).
Finishing second in the senior men's class was meet promoter
Trip Allen of the Eugene Cycling Club with a time of 1:17:44, and
crossing the tape third was John Platt of Corvallis with a 1 :18:03
time. In the junior men's class Myron Lind finished first with a
46:18:04. (The junior men's class only complete seven laps of the
course.)
During the race Lind led the pack for all of his required seven
laps. Many competitors were forced out of t~e race with bike
troubles. One rider had his seat post break and his seat fell off;
another bent the rim of his rear wheel while racing over a rough
part of the trail and was forced out of the race and one competitor
had to leave the race early with a flat tire.
"This course wasn't as wet as last year's (also held at LCC), but
it was far more grueling and difficult,'' said two-time winner
Sc hwy hart. ''Cyclo-cross is strange because one minute you can be
ahead, then if you have a spill or a bike break-down you can lose the
race. ' '
Schwyhart now qualifies for the nationals, representing Region
29. Last year he placed eighth at the nationals. The race will be held
in Austin, Texas, on Nov. 25.

Saturday Market benefits craftsmen;
helps .o ut Christmas shoppers too
by Philip J . Cunha
for The TORCH

"Saturday Market, " Eugene's local
crafts fair , is gearing up once again for
Christmas. Each Saturday as the
holiday approaches, more and more
crafts people are setting up booths,
bringing with them a great variety of
goods, foods and entertainment .
According to Stan Cram , community
relations manager, the basic idea of
the Market is to give people who
make , grow or collect goods or foods a
place to sell. Pottery, leather work,
clothing and a variety of exotic foods
and produce are always on display.

Entertainment is another aspect.
Clowns, mimes, musicians and magicians make frequent appearances at no
cost to the shoppers.
Now located at 7th and Oak Streets,
the Saturday Market originally started
in 1970. Then it was situated on a
grassy strip of city owned land. The
idea came from local craftsmen who
wanted an outlet for their goods
without the need of middle men. Lotta
Streisinger, in a handout about Market
history, states that they wanted an
easy, unstructured atmosphere. She
also says that at first, opposition from
local businessmen was great. They
feared that the activity around the
market place would draw their customers away. This proved untrue and
the market has been a boon to the
downtown area, according to a survey
of shoppers.
The market is open to any craftsmen
who wish to display their wares . Cram
says that even when it appears
overflowing near Christmas, the board
of directors will help a new vendor find
a space. The fees for a booth run from
three dollars to nine dollars based on
individual gross income.

Music Bulletin covers live scene,
benefits small - time performers
bu Paul Land

of The TORCH

Cramming 12 minutes of information onto a six-minute audio tape is
not exactly the preferred way of
making it in the music business.
For Forrest Faubion, however, it's
a daily routine-and he enjoys it.
Faubion is the owner/operator of
Music Bulletin, a tape-recorded information file which tries to cover the
live music scene in Eugene and, to a
lesser extent, the entire state. And,
according to Faubion, there isn't
much else quite like it-anywhere.
''The bulletin is pretty unique,''
Faubion said during a recent interview. '' I spend a lot of time in
Portland, and they have a lot of
concert lines-mostly through radio
stations- but none that are nearly as
comprehensive as ours.''
Comprehensive, indeed. On calling
the Music Bulletin (485-1411) one is
subjected to a rapid-fire onslaught of
players, groups, concert halls, taverns, ddnces, prices, locations and
ticket information, all tied together
with a little "BEEP" at the end.
The Bulletin in its original form
started as the KLCC Music Calendar
in 1975. Samantha Gastineaux, who
ws working for KLCC at the time, hit
upon the idea of having .a 24-hour-aday music calendar which would list·
all the musical events coming to the
area in the near future, and be
accessible to anyone with a telephone.
.
Samantha ran the Bulletin for two
years. Faced with rising costs, low
revenue and a job opportunity in
Denver, she turned the operation
over to Faubion, who assumed the
payments on the telephone equipment rented from Ma Bell. Faubion
moved the operation to a garage in a
West Eugene home and started his
own listing service.
When Samantha ran the Bulletin,
she attempted to solicit advertising
from music-related establishments,
which was placed in the recorded
message along with the regular
.concert information. This did not
prove to be profitable, so· Forrest has
abandoned the direct advertising
concept in favor of a cooperative
sponsorship system.
"We try to get support from the
clubs we publicize-the Eugene Hotel, Murphy's and other places which
benefit directly from our service.
We'd like to get $5 per listing. That's
not a hard and fast rule; it would
depend a lot on whether or not the
place served alcohol, or charges a
cover," Faubion explained.
The ad situation presents a dilemma for Faubion: He'd like to only
charge commercial businesses for
use of the Bulletin, yet he would
rather give priority on the tape to the
smaller, local acts that can't afford
large advertising budgets. So, lie
tries to include everything on the
tapes.
Tlie trouble is, there's only six
minutes of tape on the machines, and
inevitably something has to be cut. In

that situation, Faubion eliminates
information from the Portland area
first, then works his way down the
valley.
"Benefits hold a high priority,"
Faubion noted. "The less commercial
something is, the more I like to put it
on. I'm doing this service mainly for
the small performer, the guy who's
playing at the Home Fried Truck
Stop, for example, the guy who can't
afford to publicize his event.''
Another way Faubion tries to help
the small-time musician is through

by which local players can meet with
their own kind and schedule jams, or

All this activity would seem to be
too much for one person to handle.
Fortunately, Faubion has an LCC
student, Cynthia Denny, working
with him through the Supervised
Field Experience program.
"[Denny] gets a lot of experience;
she tapes the Bulletin every other
day, which is pretty difficult. You
might try ten times before you come
up with an acceptable tape ... and it
has to be absolutely perfect. We have
no room for mistakes," Faubion said.
In the interest of perfection Faubion is toying with the idea of
replacing the antiquated phone
equipment with a computerized system. He thinks the move would save
him money in the long run.
Obviously, Faubion is not in this to
make money.
He agrees. "I've always been a big
fan of live music ... Basically I do it
for the satisfaction-the knowledge
that we' re providing a service to the
local performer. ''
Faubion may find his talents in
demand someday, however. There
aren't that many people around who •
can cram a week of entertainment
into six minutes.

Volleyball team sweeps four,
ties Clackamas for 1st place
The LCC women's volleyball team swept
by four opponents to finish the season with
a 12-2 record.
The Nov. 3 and 4 wins gave the Titans a •
first-place tie with Clackamas in the
Oregon Community College Athletic Association (OCCAA) Women's Volleyball
League.
On Nov. 3, Lane defeated Southwestern
Community College 11-15, 15-8, 15-3 and
then swept by Chemeketa Community
College 15-9, 15-3. The team then travelled

the major factors that led to their victories
was strong net games from Sophomore
Randi Kay Reynolds and Deann Baltzer
who were continually frustrating the opposition with their blocking and spiking.
"I think that overall the team- plays
better on the road than we do at -home,"
said Coach McKellar-Smith. "The reason
is that while we travel the women have the
opportunity to get ready for the games
together."
According to McKellar-Smith the team

'I think that overall the team plays better
on the road than we do at home.'
north to take on Umpqua Community
College and Blue Mountain Community
College at Pendleton. On Nov. 4 LCC
outscored Umpqua 15-3, 15-10, and inched
by Blue Mountain C.C. 15-1, 14-16 and
15-13.
The Titans were paced with excellent
serving by Sophomore Kelly Smith who
during the Umpqua game served nine
points in a row. Lane's J eanna Garcia was
again a strong point in the team's offensive
attack turning in a consistent performance.
According to coach McKellar-Smith, one of

will work on their concentration this week.
"The team has the tendency to let down
over a period of time allowing our
opponents the chance to catch up or win,''
said McKellar-Smith.
The Titans travel to Ontario, Ore. ·on
Nov. 10 to participate in OCCAA regional
play. There will be two separate roundrobin tournaments with the top two teams
in both tournaments advancing into play
against each other on Saturday Nov. 11 to
determine the regional champion.
The Titans will play at 4:30, Friday Nov.

by Ed Peters
of The TORCH

LCC soccer team finished its league
schedule with a 1-5 loss to Portland
Community College (PCC). The Joss eliminated the Titans from the possibility of any
post-season play in the Oregon Intercollegiate Soccer Association (OISA) with, a
fifth-place finish.
According to Soccer Coach George
Gyorgyfalvy, the PCC team, this year's
OISA Southern Division ChaJl'!pS, had the
majority of its players return this year. This
made it a very experienced squa'd. In
contrast this year's Titan team had only
sophomore Rudi Herr returning and the
rest of the team consisted of freshmen.
For the first twenty minutes of the game
it looked as if LCC was going to be able to
contain the more powerful PCC team. Lane
and PCC exchanged goals in the -first ten
minutes of the game and then a defensive
miscue sent an LCC clearing play into their
own net. The letdown that followed allowed
PCC to score two more goals that half and
another the next half to rout LCC 5-1 .
Lane's goal was scored by Steve Ewing

at the 10-ininute mark of the game as he
outran two PCC defenders and sent a
25-yard shot past a surprised Portland
goaltender.
"Considering the strength of the PCC
team, I though we played very well and if
we could have played as we did during the
first 20 minutes we might have won,'' said
Gyorgyfalvy.
The OISA playoffs begin Saturday, Nov.
1 t in Salem.

Tarpenning voted 'Coach of the Year'

Runners capture first in Regionals,Conference

by Ed Peters
of The TORCH
The LCC Men's Cross Country Team is
once again the Oregon Community College
Atheletic Association (OCCAA) and Region
18 champion.
This year the OCCAA and Region 18
decided to run one race, (last year two
separate races were run), and declare
conference and champions from the
result. The region champ is determined
from the overall standings, while the
conference champ was named by dropping
non-conference runners from counting in
the standings.
The Titans finished first in a field of ten
teams for the region title and first in a field
of seven for the conference title in the five
mile meet held in Coos Bay on Nov. 4.
The top three finishers in the meet were:
Jairo Correa, Southern Idaho, 25:58; Dave
Magness, Lane, 26:06, an~ Scott Spruill,

Lane, 26:07.
The team scores for Region 18 were:
first place, Lane 33; second, North
Idaho, 98; third, Clackamas, 99; fourth
Ricks College, 105; fifth, College of
Southern Idaho, 106; sixth, Umpqua C.C.,
142; seventh, Central Oregon C.C., 151;
eighth, Linn-Benton C.C., 178; ninth,
Southwestern Oregon C.C., 214; tenth,
Chemeketa, 293.
For the OCCAA: first place, Lane with
23; second, Clackamas C.C. 62; third,
Umpqua C.C., 91; fourth, Central Oregon
C.C., 97; fifth, Linn-Benton C.C., 113;
sixth, Southwestern Oregon C.C., 139 and
seventh, Chemeketa C.C., 194.
The rest of the LCC runners were: fifth,
Steve Warrey, 26:14; ninth, Jerry Hammitt, 26:30; 14th Ken Cockran, 26:48; 25th,
Brian Muesslle, 27:24; 27th, Joel Gray,
27:29; 35th, Rich Totten, 27:40; 40th,
Kevin Galbraith, 27:56 and 46th, Bernie

Rice, 28:21.
'' I was very pleased with our performance," said coach Al Tarpenning. "Magness was beaten by Jairo Correa, an
all-American. This year's team is very
versatile and we have good depth."
Coach Tarpenning was named ''Coach of
the Year'' by OCCAA coaches and he was
given the same honor at the regional level
with LCC' s first place finish in the regional
meet.
"It's an honor to be voted OCCAA
"Coach of the Year"," said Tarpenning,
"and I have my runners to thank for my
Region 18 title. Without their abilities we
couldn't have swept the meet."
The LCC Women's Cross Country Team
sent three athletes to the OCCAA-Region
18 meet.
The women's team has been plagued
with injuries and because they lacked the
required number of runners for the team

scoring (5), the women ran for personal
times. The Lane women finished behind a
strong Clackamas C.C. and Central Oregon
C.C. attack.
The top runners in the three mile meet
were: first, Lisa Niebel, Clakamas C.C.,
18:00; second, Leandra Baringa, Clackamas C.C., 18:07 and third, Mary Guyer,
Central Oregon C.C., 18:16.
There were only two teams with enough
runners to qualify for team scoring--Clackamas C.C. and Central Oregon C.C .. These
will be the teams going to the nationals for
Region 18.
The Lane women's times were: 17th,
Cheryl Glasser, 21:28; 20th, Janet Wolfgram! 22:08; and 23rd Pat Hess 23:39.
This year LCC is going to the nationals
unranked because of their "unimpressive"
season. Last year they were number three
nationally. The Titans will have to be at
their best to overtake number one ranked
Southwestern Michigan.
According to Tarpenning, the Champaigne, Ill., course is five miles and is flat
and very fast. ''Our goal is to stay grouped
together as much as possible and we plan to
try to move forward during the race as a
team," said Tarpenning.
The top 25 finishers in the field of
approximately 250 runners will be named
All-Americans. (Lane has had nine AllAmericans since 1969.)
LCC will host the 10,000 meters AAUUSTFF Championship on Nov. 18 at noon.

So you want to he a champion athelete?

Just for kicks

by Jeff Patterson
of The TORCH
So you want to be a world's champion
athlete; invent your own sport. That's what
John Stalberger of Oregon City, Ore., did.
Stalberger, 27, is the inventor of a new
game called Hacky Sack. The game can be
played by one or more players by keeping a
soft, golf-ball-like bag fo the air, using only
the knees and feet. According to the rules
established by the National Hacky Sack

Association, of which Stalberger is the
president and founder, the Hacky Sack
bag, or Footbag as it is called, must not
touch the body of a player above the waist.
Stalberger and his NHSA teammates
visted LCC Monday to demonstrate the
new sport and attempt to set up a
tournament for the future. Last ear the

NHSA sponsored six tournaments on the
west coast and taught the game to
•youngsters in over 350 schools in the
Oregon, Washington and Los Angeles
areas. In Oregon, the Hacky Sackers have
won the endorsement of Verne Duncan ,
superintendent of public instruction.
Stalberger, who started the game seven
years ago as an exercise to strengthen his
knees after a football injury, now holds the
world's record for the most consecutive
kicks. His record of 1,518 kicks-lasting
about twenty-three minutes-will go into
the Guiness Book of World Records.

Health service
attacks sn1oking
This year the all-out efforts of the
American Cancer Society to reduce smoking will be coming to LCC via the Student
Health Services Apple Booth.
Watch for it! On Nov. 13 and 14 at the
Apple Booth in the cafeteria area of the
Center Building.
A prime chance to reduce your health
risks as well as your dollar lay-out in future
health care spending will be yours. A
recent study conducted by Blue Cross-Blue
Shield estimated the cost of removal of a
cancerous lung (without complications or
further spread of the disease) to be
$8251.60.
Statistically, it is shown that persons
smoking cigarettes get more lung cancer
than non-smokers. So, stopping smoking
can lessen your chances of having to spend
large sums of money fighting can~er of the
lungs.
Another disease in which cigarette
smoking is often identified is emphysema.
Other things may contribute to emphysema, but it is known that emphysema in a
smoker can be greatly influenced for the
better when cigarette smoking stops. Once
the changes in the lung tissue take place,
in emphysema there is no magic medicine
to reverse the process. Numerous studies
have shown that the disease process can be
arrested or delayed when cigarette smoking stops. In emphysema, the lung tissue
loses its elasticity and the exchange of
gases necessary to maintain life is affected.
Think about the times you need a deep
breath of air in order to climb that stair, jog
that mile, swim that lap, swing the club,
smash the racquet, or disco dance-then
think about abolishing t~e cigarette habit.
Watch for the Great American SmokeOut at the Apple Booth on Nov. 13 and 14.
