The enrollment declines, measured from 1975-1979, are most severe in Social Science (27 per cent decline), Art and Applied Design (25 per cent decline) and Science (17 per cent decline) departments. Instructors in those departments with the least seniority in their specialties were the recipients of Schafer's memorandum. The RIF letters, says Rasmussen, are an effort by the administration to inform affected departments and staff of possible layoffs or reassignments should enrollment continue to decline in those departments. Hodges says, "but I'm very glad - very grateful - that the college was willing to reassign me.

Hodges was, in fact, reassigned at the beginning of winter term. As the least senior of five sociology instructors in the social science department teaching shrinking classes, he faced an uncertain future until the college reassigned him to the Counseling Department where he is now head of testing.

The "kid fat" is gone, though he still wonders about his identity. Sixteen years later, after much thinking and searching, Romano can now look up at the stars and ask that question with more certainty though the change did not come easy. Fresh out of high school, Romano joined the Navy. "It was a mistake. I hated it - tried to quit three times and they threw me in the brig." While in the Navy, he took a battery of tests and did so well that they wanted him to work in the fields of electronics and nuclear research. But Romano had other plans. "I hated the structure and authority, but I was stuck and ended up serving four years as a medic." Later he got married, then divorced. He traveled - Europe and Asia and over the entire U.S. He became a street musician, then a recluse. In the process, he went broke. Twice during this time he 'began school but quickly dropped out, unable to handle the "rigid structure system of education.'' continued on page 4 Perry re-elec ted in small turnou t by Steve Myers of The TORCH Lane County Election Office officials report that only eight per cent of the county's registered voters showed up to cast their ballots in the April 2 general election. A spokesperson for the election office said that only 11,920 people voted in the election which covered several district tax levies and two positions for the LCC Board of Education. Current Board of Education Chairperson Larry Perry was easily re-elected receiving 4,415 votes. Perry's closest finisher was Bob Lyford who collected 2,467 votes, while "Mac" Campbell and John Flynn received 1,489 and 1,094 votes, respectively. In Zone Two - Junction City, Jim Pitney was re-elected to a four-year term on the LCC board. Pitney ran unopposed and captured 8,014 votes. A spokesperson for the president's office said LCC pays a share of each county election in which it participates. Although figures for Tuesday's election are not yet available, the charges usually run between $1_0,000 and $14,000 each.

Most of these claims are not supported by scientific evidence, yet it is difficult for us who are members of the Great American Public to evaluate fact from fancy - especially in regard to the term ''natural,'' which is used for everything from whole grain cereals to potato chips! The First Amendment to the Constitution, through its protection of free contain pesticide residues as some chemical residues remain in the soil for years after the last application and fresh residues can be deposited by drifting spra~•s or dusts or rainfall runoff from nearby areas. The possibility for fraud exists (sinc;e chemically and organically grown foods look alike) when the consumer doesn't know if the storekeeper is honest, the distributor doesn't know if his suppliers are honest or the supplier doesn't know what the winds or rains have done to his crops. Vitamin claims are perhaps the largest area subject to fraud. New vitamins can be proclaimed. But for a legitimate vitamin to be established, it anced diet, from a wide variety of foods, and practice moderation in eating any single food.

One thing some health foods seem to have in common is that they cost more than conventional foods. The U.S. Department of Agriculture conducted a survey which indicated that supermarket costs can run twice as much for health foods as for regular foods. · Organically grown foods, once removed from the field, cannot be told from commercially fertilized plants. Plant roots absorb nutrients in inorganic form, regardless of the source. Scientists tell us there is no basis for claiming organic foods are more nutritious than conventionally grown foods. Differences in the nutrient content of plants of the same species will vary depending upon the genetic nature, the climate, the soil nutrients and the stage of maturity at which the plant was harvested. For example, the vitamin A content of carrots and oranges has been found to differ depending upon where grown and when harvested. Even organically grown foods can must ·be tested under controlled conditions to prove that absence of that vitamin in the diet causes abnormal body functioning; e.g., the lack of vitamin C causes scurvy. All animals need some vitamins, but not all known vitamins are needed by all animals. Therefore, testing must establish that a vitamin is essential in a human diet before it can be said to be essential to human nutrition. Many people, wishing the best in health and safety, turn to "health" foods believing that because they are "natural" they are safe, or safer than conventional foods. That is a fallacy. Many poisonous substances occur naturally in foods. Oxalic acid is present in spinach. Carrots, lettuce and celery leaves contain nitrate and nitrite compounds. Sassafras root contains safrole which produces liver cancer in rats. For that reason, the sale of sassfras tea was banned in 1976. Some bone meal has been found to have high levels of lead. Normally, under some conditions, aflatoxin grows naturally on corn, peanuts and other grains. Because it is a powerful cancer-causing substance, peanut butter and milk are monitored for aflatoxin levels. Kelp tablets may contain high levels of arsenic. Be safe, and be kind to yourself and your pocketbook! We do not need to fear foods so much as we need to exercise common sense.

I've been a homemaker but now I'd like to do something else.'' Terri , 23: " I originally learned secretarial work to have a job to fall back on, but it's all I've done. I get bored with a job once I've learned it." Dawn, 18: "I want to own my own business. I'd like to train animals but I'm also interested in interior decorating.'' Each is a very different person but has one thing in common with the others - an interest in learning to choose and change careers. Gene Sorenson is teaching the class, Mid-Life Career Changes, which offers Ellen, Terri, Dawn and 27 other LCC students a process for making career/ life decisions. On the first day, after a preliminary course description, Sorenson tells the class of a 42-year-old career woman who has been working at her job for 10 years. She is eyeing a promotion but doesn't think she will get it. Filled with doubt, she contemplates a job change. What should she do? "She'll have to think about a drop in pay,'' offers a student. ''Many people make lateral changes with no cut in pay,'' counters another. "I was ready to leave my job," confesses one student, "but I talked with my boss and he offered me a raise. I still want to leave because I'm bored .'' Sorenson stresses the importance of this kind of shared experience as a means of problem-solving. He tells class members they must r--1 \ i ll I consider both internal and external factors when making a change. "Will taking a new job mean a longer drive and a bigger gas bill?" he asks. "And how much will this change cost in emotional energy? So many people never consider the psychological price. " The three-credit class, whieh meets every Tuesday evening from 6-9 p.m. in Center 220, will cover three main areas - Assessment of Self, The Study of Occupations and Decision Making and Implementation.

Sorenson says that his own mid-life career change (from teacher to counselor) would have been easier had he previously taken this class, and he sees the class as a means of helping others make a similar change. "It isn't unusual these days," he tells the class, ''for a person to change occupations eight or nine times in a lifetime. That is why it's important to learn this process - you'll always have it with you. "My job is not to find you jobs - it is to teach you a decisien-making process." ir~,r~!illj~i![I):!~1j[;::'illJJ-<!?!!tlO!f:!t~ti:1;::11:'.:;:;1::;rt:1 ,~ 'i;;ili~t~l1!!!'.::1:~1 \ \ \ \ tions as, "What are my goals?" "Who do I want to be?" "How do others see me?" "What are my tentative plans?" "Know yourself," he says, "and then tell others about yourself - don't be afraid to do this. In this class you will become accustomed to talking and writing about yourself.'' He maintains that our culture discourages this "unloading" but rather he sees it as a healthy expression . "Don't be afraid to talk to your boss, for instance - explain who you are." But can't people learn these skills from life (instead of in a classroom)? ~OQJ ~00~@~(!)00 U~ Also on sale--drawing paper and other supplies on our special sale table in the supplies area.

[L~ ~COCOG'!~U©~~ ij[BCD cra.cocolll ctce~,ice~ To listen to the now thin, slightly balding 26-year-old as he praises particular classes and teachers is to know that he isn't finished - he does belong here. Romano can be seen hustling to classes, dashing lightfooted across campus lawns, decked out in casually disheveled archaic attire and sporting, atop his head, the home-made leather cap which gives him the look of a modern-day Robin Hood , But despite his renewed interest in school, Romano is not as appeased as he might first appear. Given time to talk, the rebel - the Robin Hood soon comes pouring out , '' I know that for myself, and for many others, school can be frustrating because it is not set up for the individual to develop at his of her own pace. '' Students are expected to fit a mold, a preconceived standard of what and how they should learn. There is no room for emotion, deviation or spontaneity; this is unnatural.'' Romano believes that as long as students are expected to adhere to the rigid structure system of education , a high degree of failure is inevitable. And , he points out, "Failure is not well accepted in school. If you don't understand something you are called a dumb student; you are a failure . "I wish half the school were set up like the Math Resource Center, where students are allowed to develop at their own pace , where learning is geared toward the individual 's needs ." As Romano sees it , education is too often a process where the student is forced and pushed . "Education , in the true sense , is an activity of leading the student to knowledge ," he says. Since Romano knows what it 's like to be frustrated in school, he hopes to help others avoid what he's gone through. He wants to become an educator . His major is English, but he 's incorporating a rich background in math , anthropology , mythoiogy and music . He explains, "I want to be a well-rounded person, scientific as well as religious . I've always been fascinated by myths and fairy tales, but math and science are necessary structures also, " he adds . After LCC Romano will move on to the U of O to finish his formal education. Following graduation , it will then be up to him to continue his pursuit of knowledge and to pass that knowledge on to others. He grins slightly and chuckles when he speaks so seriously of his future . But he may well do it - Romano 's modern-day Robin Hood look is a far cry from the fat boy of his past .

The movie is three hours long with a 15-minute intermissio n . At times, the scenes seemed too long and drawn out . Yet , somehow at the end of the movie I couldn't think of a scene to cut . The movie plot and acting gave the film its gripping suspense and its powerful and, at many times, symbolic meaning. I became so enthralled with the characters joy and pain·that I had to see it again to review it. The movie is a nutshell look at the war in Viet Nam and how it entwined average American men in the prime of their youth and changed those lives forever. The major theme of the story is life is sacred - no matter what - and the deer hunter survives the war to discover that. Technically, the movie is superb and is a quality production. The cinematography of Vilmos Zsigmond will probably win him an academy award. All of the acting is phenomen al. Several nomination s for academy awards are pending because of it, including De Niro for Best Actor; Cazale for Best Supporting Actor. Probably the biggest contribut-ion to the movie was made by Michael Cimino. He co-authore d the story, co-produced the film and directed. Cimino has been nominated for the "Oscar" as director. Other academy award nominations include: Best Screen Play, Best Supporting Actress , Best Film Editing and Best Costume Design.

The trio becomes reunited (after a separation of some kind the audience isn't informed) in wl\at seems to be a minor encounter with the Viet Cong. It turns out to be a little bit larger confrontation with the enemy than they expected. They are captured and forced to play a lethal version of Russian Roulette as the Viet Cong gamble on the outcome. Luckily they escape. But, not unscathed. At this point, the message of the movie begins to leave other contemporary Viet Nam flies behind in the dust. The audience is shocked with the realization of the effects of the war on average human beings. Some of the effects can't be corrected - some can, but aren't.

Early in the second inning, shortstop Dave Frizzell nailed a homerun over left field bringing Lane within two. During the sixth inning, Kurt Tarpen-~ ning provided a bright sport for Lane saving an Umpqua fly ball to left field. This save retired the Umpqua bench. Relief pitcher Keith Livesay knocked out three Umpqua batters consecutively leaving the final score 10-3. The second game of the doubleheader was relatively slow, with Lane making only three hits and two runs. Umpqua dominated most of the game with solid hitting and consistent pitching. Lane was unable to put anything together and Umpqua came out ahead, 5-2. LCC pitcher Marty Max was given the loss leaving his pitching record at 1-1.

S -Atlld:l records two with Woinen run away . I' by Beverly Daugherty The TORCH of The LCC women's track team got its season off to a good start at the Oregon Open on Saturday, March 24, as Jill Lanham set two new LCC records in the l 00 and 200 meters. Lanham won both her heats with times of 12.3 for 100 meters and 25.2 for 200 meters, as opposed to the previous records by former Titan Kathy Downey of 12.6 and 27.2, respectively. . Although coach Mike Manley hasn't seen the competition elsewhere in the conference, he feels confident that several of the Lane women will do well this season. " We also have a good chance of breaking several more Lane records. We've got talent and people willing to work. Many of our girls are not only full-time students but are employed full time too. They come out at the end of the day and train into the mght. •• Manley stresses the willingness of the team to work hard as a point in their favor. He always tries to encourage people. "Tt's not too late in the season to start,'' points out Manley. Several members of the team were not present at the Oregon Open due to work "·1 ,· -,•.

She did equally well in the discus, throwing 109.8. The national standard is 105. Liz Jones, high jumper from Sheldon, placed first in that category with a 5'0" jump. The standard for that event is 4'8". Coach Mike Manley was satisfied with his team's performance. "We had some really good times. I'm pleased with the women's work.

She is a full-time student and has a full-time job in the counseling department. She will compete in the 400 meters, 800 meters and possibly the relays. Manley says she is "one of our stabilizers." Her best time is 61.2 for the 400 and her goal is to go under 60. Jill Lanham also is a full-time student and has a full-time job. This is her first year at LCC.

She h as area . t ers m sprm a number of national standards, works hard and, according to Manley, will go as far as she wants to. Kim Zambito is new to the team. She competed in high school but hasn't competed for some time. Liz Grzelewski is out for her first year. She is capable of competing in a number of events, but has been working with the 400-meter hurdles. Manley feels certain that she will qualify for nationals in the area she chooses. Cheryl Glasser was a valuable cross country runner this past fall, acc;ording to Manley. She competed at North Douglas High School previously. She will shift between the mile, 800, 1,500 and 5,000. She will be helpful in the distances, says Manley. Pat Hess is a sophomore. This is her second and last year with the team. She is now leaning towards marathon training. She competed in her first marathon at Seaside in February, where she hurt her knee. She's still recovering from the injury. Nadine Lindsey is with the Titans for her last season. Manley sees her as his number one distance runner. She will alternate between the 1,500, 800, 3,000, 5,000 and will help on the mile relay. Emily Cockeram has not competed in several years. She is a full-time nursing student. Cockeram is coming along we]] and will compete in the 3,000, 5,000 meters, according to Manley. Randi Reynolds is an excellent talent. A late starter coming out after basketball , season, she needs some strength building but will probably qualify for nationals, says Manley. Liz Jones is a high jumper from Sheldon. This is her first year at Lane and she has already broken the Lane record with a jump of 5-4¾. She is having back problems right now but will be helpful when she returns to her injury-free form, predicts Manley. University of Oregon 686-3102 It's not too late to add ROTC to your schedule. Separating his teams into "A" and "B" squads, Wilson plans to use the A team for a majority of the league games, while the B group wi11 back up and play mostly non-league games. ''This way, both teams have a chance at competitive opportunities.'' said Wilson. Steve Bolstad, a former University of Oregon player, and Scott Cohn (Wilson) head the men's line-up. Jason Metz (Churchill), Rich Farmer (South Eugene) and Don Smith (Springfield) all provide strong support among the Titan netmen. The women's team has two returning players and newcomer Kathy Berry to head its line-up. Berry is a new recruit from Roseburg joining returning veterans Judi Stack (Roseburg) and Peggy Gangle (Willamette). Just this past year, the women were admitted to the women's division of the OCCAA - the same conference in which the men have participated for some time. Previously, the women competed in the National Junior College Athletics Association (NJCAA). Because of the increased interest in women's tennis, an assistant was hired for Wilson , instead of the season-to-season coach which was previously used. Wilson's new assistant is Anne Carter, a former Sheldon coach. Wilson and Carter plan to make some changes with the facilities. They say some sort of spectator seating will be arranged and a large scoreboard might be constructed to keep track of individual and team scores. Wilson thinks Lane's toughest competition may come from former conference champion Chemeketa and Clackamas Community Co11ege. Wilson said that the Titans are not sure what they're up against, but feels very confident about his team's chances. see related story page 11 • Apr. 5 -~---------1N_)~[j{) page 11 Titans edge out Linn-Benton in season opene:1~ 102-99 by Ed Peters of The TORCH The LCC track and field team narrowly edged out Linn-Benton 102-99 to capture a victory in the Oregon Community College Athletic Association (OCCAA) relay meet held in Roseburg March 31. According to Head ~oach Al Tarpenning the meet, the first since the spring break, was just a warm-up event. Tarpenning stated that he used the meet to experiment with a few of his runners in different distances to find the team's strengths. " I am pleased with our overall performance at the meet," stated Tarpenning. •'At this point in time I think the team is very adequate. We really didn 't have any outstanding efforts in the Roseburg meet." 'We really didn't have any outstanding efforts in the Roseburg ~eet.'
