ane C mmu11..Jtg Colleg e • Draft rein tateme n blame d on nee f r by Steve Myers of The TORCH "A war for oil is coming," exclaimed Russ Linebarge, a former LCC student and now with the University of Oregon Vet's Club. ''That's the only reason for bringing back the draft." Linebarger and six other people concerned with draft legislation held a pro/con panel discussion in the Performing Arts Theater April 11. The informal debate was sponsored by the ASLCC and attracted only an estimated 75-100 people. In addition to Linebarger, the panelist against the draft proposals included Dave Fidanque. spokesperson for Congressman Jim Weaver; Kurt Hoeltine, represemative of the Coalition Opposing Registration and the Draft; and Marion Malcolm, representative of the Clergy and Laity Concerned. Pro-draft panelists included Major General Richard Miller, Military Department of the State of Oregon (National Guard and Army Reserves); Colonel Lenard Hicks of the St ate Selective Service Department; and James Powell , junior vice-commander of the Veterans Foreign Wars. Each panelist began with a five- to ten-minute statement listing why he/ she supports or opposes the draft. Powell, of the VFW, indicated that he supported the draft and a waiver of the Privacy Act so the ~elective Service could gain access to information about an individual's draft status through school transcripts, work records and medical records. He said access to previously unattainable information would help in classifying possible draftees. "The waiver of the Privacy Act is a very small price to pay for the safety of our homes and families," he explained. "We have to give up these rights to protect more important rights - like freedom." 97405 • I Col. Hick· said he supported the draft. but not through a centralized computer system as one bill proposes; he reasoned that the draft needs to be reinstated to upgrade the intellectual level of the average army soldier· and when questioned by a member of the audience at a later time, Hicks said he supported drafting women - "It's fair," he said. Gen. Miller said the army is on the brink of disaster. He feels there aren't enough reservists or National Guardsmen to p otect ''our interests" if a violent war were to brea out and e "ere to sufier heavy casualties, as predicted, in the firs few months of combat. Fidanque, Weaver's spokesperson, aid there are currently eight bill _before a house committee and Weaver opposes the reinstatement of the draft or registration in any form. He said one of the bills before the committee, HR 2500, would probably be made law by mid-summer. ccording to Fidanque, HR 2500 calls for registration to start by the first of next year. He added that the bill also calls for the President to make a recommendation within 90 days of the bill 's passage on whether the Privacy Act should be waived and women should be drafted. Fidanque said Weaver strongly believes ''the only capability the draft would give the army that it doesn't already have is the capability to involve t he country in an unpopular war.'' "Our nation is weak," continued Fidanque, "not because of the lack of an active army, but because of this country's dependence on foreign oil." Other panelists concurred with Fidanque in his statements that reinstatement of the draft only means this country was preparing for a war. "We see the draft for what it is," concluded Linebarger, " - a vehicle to a war." Major General Richard MIUer was only one of seven people who came to LCC this week to debate possible draft reinstatement. Photo by E. Samson Nfsser. SLCC seek candid ate With no official candidates at present, time is running short for 1979-1980 school year ASLCC hopefuls to place themselves on the ballot. On May 9-10 LCC students will vote for next year's ASLCC president, vice president, treasurer, cultural director and seven student senators. To qualify candidates must be full-time students with a minimum 2 point GPA and must submit an application to ASLCC by April 27 (second floor of C~nter Building). In addition ASLCC Vice President Sally Sterns adds, "They're (candidates) allowed to spend up to $80 on their campaign and they must submit to the election commission - me - a complete account of campaign expenditures no later than May 15 - .actual receipts, not just a piece of paper." ''The president and vice president must run as a team," continues Sterns, "because they must work together.'' Election winners will begin serving summer term and there will be a training session at the end of spring term.

Editorial by Frank Babcock of The TORCH I Thpugh battle lines are clearly drawn between opponents and proponents of military draft legislation, the issue is muddy . The military is taking the position that its manpower levels are in a dangerous decline with dependency on a volunteer army and should the US become involved in a conventional war, a ready source of capable manpower should be immediately available. Draft opponents are paranoid about the intentions of the military. They feel that a higher availability of manpower might make war a more attractive instrument of foreign relations - that military persuasion might be used to assure a continuing flow of foreign oil. And they feel that ammendmen ts to the Privacy Act that are accompanying the draft legislation threaten to undermine individual freedoms. Despite the fact that the government recently released a report that the volunteer army is alive and doing well, the military is now disputing its own claims. Defense experts are saying that manpower levels are becoming inadequate for some types of warfare, and reincarnaMA DENMARK. I I tion of the draft is justified. In the military way of thinking, 4--rz-1, national defense is a concern that must take precedent over all else. After all, they say, what need is there to support domestic programs if the military is so weak that it cannot ensure the continued existence of the nation? the throughout Unfortunately, course of American history, the military has enjoyed the luxury of having most anything it desires. Costefficiency is a foreign term. Consequently, blank checks signed by the Department of Defense have left a door wide open for profiteering by numerous corporations and political corruption of government officials and leaders. In the past decade, the military/ industrial complex has become embarrassingly visible to the public along with the lies that have, in the past, protected it . And the government has yet to come completely clean on the Viet Nam fiasco. So the credibility of the military never terrific - is at rock bottom . Today, asking for a return of the draft, justified or not, might be asking for the moon. If draft opponents are successful, the military may be forced to do some brainstorming about how it will involve itself in the next war, should there be one. The American public ·has passively subsidized an incredibly large arsenal of sophisticated weaponry. If forced to defend itself without the availability of. a large supply of human bodies, the US might have to violate some war rules and employ those fancy weapons. Let's hope not. Such a war might end quickly but be costlier in terms of human life than historically typical of a conventional war. The extremes - defenselessn ess vs. all-out annihalation capacity - are both ugly. To maintain a proper national defense posture may very well require the use of a draft system. But the military - as well as the government in general - should make every effort to restore genuine integrity and candor. Until there is some reasonable assurance that that is happening, the public has every right - and a responsibility - to be actively suspicious. i Le tte rs CARES needs help To the Editor: It has been recommende d to the county budget committee that $96,000 of County General fund monies be saved by the proposed elimination of the entire CARES Information and Referral program. This is a program that serves over 20,000 citizens annually throughout the county by helping them to locate and obtain assistance from over six hundred different providers of services. There is a need for further documentation of the overall effectiveness of CARES and the level of community support for the continued existence of its information and referr al program.

They say they fear that the FBI or some other agency will supply their names to Israeli police for speaking publicly against the Israeli establishment. They say that such public dissent could lead to harassment of their families in Palestine, and that they themselves could be arrested and detained indefinitely, possibly without trial, should they ever return to Palestine. This climate of repression, say the students, is one of the reasons they have left their homes on the West Bank. '' I would return now if it were a free country," says Mohammed, who has been in the United States for just eight months. ''There is freedom here (in America)," says Mohammed, "but for us it is very limited. We don't know how what we say will be used against us in the future.'' Ezzedine and Mohammed grew up in different towns-on the West Bank, some 70 kilometers apart. Ezzedine isn't certain of his family's welfare. But he says that life is probably difficult for them because of recent demonstrations, killings and the continued confiscation of land for Israeli settlements. Mohammed's father was a farmer in Palestine and his family lived on land that was owned by his grandfather. But the land has been confiscated by Israel and Mohammed claims that his family was not compensated for the loss. The news media in Palestine is controlled by government censors, says Mohammed. Opposing views to the official government line are not ·permitted. Uncensored news comes through underground PLO radio broadcasts. The truth probably falls somewhere between the Israeli rhetoric and the PLO rhetoric. According to Mohammed, the Arabs in Palestine have no real _access to objective news. Mohammed says that many Arabs have left Palestine, preferring to seek work in Kuwait or Saudi Arabia. Other Palestinians, he says, are too poor to leave or simply won't leave their homeland. When Ezzedine first came to the United States five-and-a-half years ago, he spoke only a few words of English. With the help of his brother, who lives in Eugene, Ezzedine was able to find work in a mill. He worked there tor three years. Ezzedine then decided to try school, working in the mill at night and studying geography and geology at LCC by day. Ezzedine says he would like to return to Palestine someday to teach school. "Both Jews and Arabs tan live in a peaceful, democratic state without outside interference,'' he says of Palestine. ''The way to accomplish this is to abolish Zionism." "Zionism," Ezzedine continues, "is a political ideology which was intended to create a Jewish homeland in Palestine ... but now has developed to include imperialism.'' ''The State of Israel,'' says Ezzedine, "does not really represent the Jewish people - it represents the Israelis who are living there. The Zionist laws, ideology, •ethics and political scheme ... have to go. He says that acts which·are labeled "terrorism by the establishment are actually acts of~ 'resistance_and revolution by people seeking self-determination. Ezzedine also says that the whole of Palestine should be "for·.Arabs and Jews to live equally under the law .. ·. without discrimination because of religious differences.'' The prospects of going back to Palestine are not good. Yet it's a hope both students carry with them. '' I would like to share in the development of that part of the world, says Ezzedi_ne, "and enjoy equality and justice with people of the same language I grew up with." 11 II II 11 A "No Spray Day" rally will be held Monday, April 16 o·n the steps of the Federal Building , 7th and Pearl, Eugene, at noon.

News Feature by Ron Robbins of The TORCH "I have an aunt and uncle, and mother and father, three sisters, and some nieces and nephews within about seven miles of the reactor (at Three Mile Island)." Arden Snyder suddenly found himself with a personal interest in national events March 28. By the time Snyder could get a phone call through to his parents' house they had left. ''I called back there and was unable to reach them because they weren't there. They had evacuated. They were gone before the weekend." The nuclear reactor accident occurred at Three Mile Island at about 4 a.m. Wednesday morning. By Thursday morning more than 1,200 millirems had been measured on the plant site. Alarm filled nearby towns. Many area residents left even before Governor Thornburg's announcement advising people to stay indoors. In the early stages of the accident the governor considered evacuating those within a three-mile radius of the plant because the radiation levels reached 25 millirems. According to a spokesperson for Sacred Heart Hospital in Eugene, a rem is the measure for a radiation emitted dose and is the measure of low-level radiation exposure. Workers in the nuclear industry German AUTO SERVICE 0 Graphic by Katheryn Albrecht are not allowed more than five rems annually. The general public, however, can be subjected to no more than half a rem, or 500 millirems annually. How much risk does low-level radiation offer? And what are the effects of lengthy exposure to very small amounts of radiation? One aspect is the risk of cancer or the rise in the number of cancers in groups of WW lli~W ~[t~~[?[D[ ?Q CDAU~W~ U©~©U:.\ • EXPERT WORKMANSHIP 2045 Franklin Blvd. Eugene, Oregon 97403 342-2912 5 2 E EEE ZiSS'SSSS:S 2 2 =~sss 22 5 EE SE :SSSiSSiSS 2 E ES 2E SEE CS EE EE' an1p us Mini str)I atLC C people exposed to increased amounts of radiation. A rise in cancer rates caused by radiation exposure is very difficult to document, for one thing, because the cancer may take as long as 10 to 15 years to develop. Even so, as more radiation is produced by American industries (such as from medical and dental X-rays) the amount of radiation to which we are all exposed increases. So does the average incidence of cancer among the general populace. Arden Snyder says of his parents' experience, "They said there were a lot of conflicting reports. The electric company was saying one thing - that there wasn't 'Reactors in flight path' any problem - and then later they had the bullhorns going through the streets telling people to stay indoors and encouraging people within a five-mile radius to evacuate. My uncle and aunt live within about four miles of there." Nationally, nuclear energy provides 12 percent of the electric power generated in this country. On the East Coast several states generate more than half of their power through reactors. For example, 80 percent of Vermont's electricity comes from reactor-driven generators; Maine and Connecticut receive over half their power from nuclear power plants. In the face of these figures there are those who say we simply have no choice - there are no alternatives which can replace the 300 billion kilowatt-hours of nuclear energy produced last year. The weighing or possible benefits against long-term risk of harm sometimes ASLCC debate s tuition hike for student ehildeo re funds by Bob Waite -Contact through Student _Activitie s, Center Bldg. or LCC Restaura nt near the elevator. Chaplains James Dieringer S Norm Metzler "We're here for you." reaches into the bizarre. When billions of dollars are spent to build a nuclear generating facility and it's payrolls bring millions of dollars to the surrounding communities, not to mention the megawatts of power - when all these are weighed against an indistinct chance of radiation damage, soinetimes the decisions are hard to understand. For example, Arden Snyder learned while talking to his father that Three Mile Island is in the flight path of a nearby airport. ''The airport was entirely closed down because the airplanes come in over the reactors. They (the reactors) were built against a National Aeronautics Board recommendation because the planes have to come in right over the reactors, which is another hazard I wasn't even aware of." Reporters in Harrisburg and other towns around the reactor site say the people are somewhat fatalistic about the accident and the possible harm. Perhaps they have no choice. Perhaps economic necessity and a lifetime in those towns make them hostages in the battle surrounding nuclear reactors. When asked if his relatives will return home, Snyder said, "I assume they will. What are the choices economically? As long as the area is still there you don't just pack up and leave unless you're independently wealthy - and they're not. I'm sure they'll go back." "The federal government hasn't put much money into developing other alternatives - wind, geothermal or solar • power," he lamented. As reports say the homes and towns around Three Mile Island are again safe, .most people are returning to their homes, as long as the area is still there. " As long as the area is still there." of The TORCH Heated discussion erupted during Wednesday's ASLCC meeting over a proposal to raise student tuition by one dollar per student. The proposal was made by student senator Joseph Stockett for the creation of an emergency child-care fund for LCC students. The discussion intensified when James Cox, ASLCC president, asked Stockett to submit a written proposal. Stockett argued that ASLCC had enough information because he had suggested it during last ' week's meeting, adding that he couldn't take his proposal to the Board of Education without the ASLCC's support. "We're not here to sink your ship," Cox replied. "What I'm saying is, get the facts ... let's get the proposal written down." Other student government members agreed with Cox, arguing the need for more than a ''vague proposal'' that could amount to $25,000 of student money. "I'm not going to proceed with this issue any further," shouted Stockett. "I'm not going to be involved with it anymore." The proposed tuition increase is still pending. In other action ASLCC voted to support LCC student Arthur Scott, member of the Coalition Opposing Registration and the Draft. Scott and the Coalition intend to print a newsletter to get military draft information to the public, particularly area high school .students. ------------April 12 - lS; 1 9 7 9 - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - T Q R C H - - - - - page 5 • Ups et mov iego ers rea ct to 'Ch ina Syn dro me' EDITOR'S NOTE: After a recent showing of "The China Syndrome," TORCH reporter Ron Robbins talked to several moviegoers. Those wa1tmg to see ''The China Syndrome" have suddenly and frighteningly come upon the newest additions to popular language. As they leave the theatre the talk is of "melt down, "radiation risks," and "millirems." As I talked to people I found most of them concerned with the effect of those millirems. Brenda Kelly, from Salem, says, "I just don't think we've clearly defined how we 're going to store the waste. And until we've done that - found a safe way to do it - I'm not convinced we have a right to go ahead with the whole process.'' Kelly, interested in the issues surrounding nuclear energy for some time, describes herself as an anti-nuclear activist. "I've been interested in the issues since the early sixties." Kelly seriously follows the issue. ''I've gone to debates. For example, at Willamette University, Portland General Elec.tric (PGE) put on a debate with an antinuclear group from Portland. " ... they've never convinced me. It's just a feeling. I might want to have a child someday; I · don:t want to be,,exposed to that kind of environment . . . There are really no arguments that Kelly would find persuasive althrough she is willing to listen. It seems to come to a matter of faith. Whom do you believe whom can you believe? Kelly's fears of risks to an unborn child and being forced to leave her home became grotesque realities to those living in Middletown and Royalton, Pa., Thursday, March 29, as red fire trucks drove slowly through Middletown advising people to stay indoors. Greg Rose expresses a certain fatalism about nuclear energy. "I think we ' ll have to have nuclear energy sooner or later but I think there should be a lot more safety precautions. I think we're moving too fast." John Temple is more specific. "I don't believe geothermal will work on a large scale. Solar energy has possibilities. But most every source of energy has its drawbacks. Nuclear energy is fundamental to our future." In the short run, Temple suggests we may need to conserve what energy we now produce. As the demand for power grows Mile Island are so closely paralleled by "The China Syndrome" that the movie was swamped the first weekend after th~ accident. Moynell Flood is the assistant manager at Valley River Cinema. "That Friday we sold out long before the show started and Saturday was the same thing. All the shows were sold out.'' Flood said members of the Trojan Decommissioning Alliance came to hand out leaflets both before the showings and afterwards . Everyone was interested in a copy of the leaflet. Stephen Wells said, as he passed out ' I'm finding more people who ... don't want to ·h ear any more.' over the next SO years only nuclear power has the potential to meet that demand, he feels. Temple cites economic need and an increasing demand for energy as the two main reasons he supports the construction of more nuclear power plants. "Economically we need it. Society is becoming more dependent on electricity; everything we do depends on it. Nuclear energy is the only alternative. It has the potential that solar and geothermal and the rest don't have." Asking people to decide on the future of nuclear energy, however, is a difficult or perhaps even an impossible task. Most people I spoke with claimed to know little or nothing about nuclear reactors and their only source of information '' comes from what I hear and see in the media.'' This lack of information about the risks and benefits may have some bearing on the attendance at the theatre. Events at Three leaflets after one of the showings, "I feel this is a real and important thing to do. The way in which I can help is to pass out leaflets when people are really hot for it.'' Wells thinks the response has been very positive because the movie makes people think, but that lately the response has been changing. "I'm finding more people who seem like they don't want to hear- anymore," explains Wells, "who seem like they don't want to think about it anymore, like maybe it's become too unsettling." More ominously, I talked with someone who did know something about the dangers of low-level radiation. Rick Rollins served a four-month Department of Energy internship at the Hanford reactor in Richland, Washington. "I did a biological field study on radioactive uptake (absorption) by the plants in a radiation zone,'' says Rollins, now a local resident. • 'They had a contaminated pond which they buried.

I don't have a child now, but before I have one, I need some questions answered. D.H. Dear D.H.: Glad you asked. More people need to do this before deciding to be a parent. As you know, genes carry a determination of various traits that you give your child in combination with the other parent. These determine the color of eyes, hair and skin; whether hair is curly or straight, certain diseases or tendencies toward them, etc. Dr. Neil Buist, a professor of pediatrics . ano medical genetics at the U of O Health Sciences Center, has a personal goal that is to bring a message to Oregon's teenagers and young adults, which is: _ What you do and what you are has a direct bearing upon the health of your child. His , special challenge is to alert this age group (in which there were a million pregnancies last year) to assume a greater responsibility for their unborn children's futures. Dr. Buist warns that even though you look perfectly normal, you may have a birth defect or carry a trait that can be passed on - be it baldness, Tay-Sachs disease, sickle cell anemia, diabetes, six fingers or ' whatever. Locally, for genetic counseling, you may call 686-3575 at the U of O to arrange an appointment at the Clinical Services Building on East 18th with Jan Steinmark. There is a fee. Usually health insurance will pay, or other arrangements may be made. Or you can make an appointment in Portland at the U of O Health Sciences Center with the Crippled Children's Division. Your foresight will help you and your child.

A friend told m~ I'm crazy not to wear a helmet. What do you think? H.Y. Dear H.Y.: Motorcycle accident traffic deaths in 1977 rose to 4,082, an increase of 700 over the previous year. According to the National Highway Traffic and Safety Administration, this increase is related to the 1976 Highway Safety Act which took away the power of the federal government to require motorcyclists to wear helmets.

" In ''The China Syndrome'' the chief danger is from a reactor melt down. Rollins thinks the real danger is from lqw levels of radiation and the long-term effects of that radiation on the rising cancer rate. "If the country can afford to see the cancer rates rise then possibly the risks are O.K. "To me it's an obvious balancing of the risk of cancer rates rising, against the possibility of getting a few more years out of nuclear energy.'' The occupational safety standards for the nuclear power industry operate on the theory that there is a threshold level below which the body can repair itself. Rollins says, "There is controversy. I think most of the medical people who have looked at the data in a critical way do not believe there is any safe dose of radiation.'' The whole issue of safe limits is, perhaps, the wrong way to think about radiation exposure. Rather than a hard line below which you are safe, Brookhaven Radiophysicist Victor Bond suggests that "standards are like speed limits. They are put there to decrease the chance of injury and accident - but there is always an irreducible minimum of harm. All you can do is weigh that harm against the benefit derived.'' Rollins admits, with a twisted grin, that he left his internship at Hanford and is now a wine maker. 249.50 18.50 Man's wedding band '29.50 •• • n ra "Safety check A-OK." "Roger. Let's go for it.

Review by Michael Tenn of The TORCH " Get Out Your Handkerch iefs," showing at the Waco Twin Cinema, was chosen "Best Foreign Film" at this year's Academy Awards. I never would have guessed it. I know that French films have a tendency to resemble home movies, but "Handkerc hiefs" is not even a good home movie. The plot is reminiscen t of something you would expect to see on a reel of 8mm pornograp hy. But, alas, we are not even rewarded with any porno for sitting through this turkey with its terribly flimsy and poorly executed script . By way of giving the movie every possible benefit of a doubt, maybe the translation (which appears in subtitles) was partly responsibl e for the film's inexcusabl e lameness. If it was a good movie in French, then I'd have to say it loses quite a bit in the translation . The story is about a man whose wife has become melancholy. In an attempt to put the spice back into their relationship, he invites a stranger in a restaurant to take her home. The three become friends and the woman has both men as lovers though only one at a time, which is Read the TORCH!!!!!!!!!! . '~ • .. f & ·: . Your..prescription.. . .. .. ROBERTSON S • •.

She and the boy live happily ever after in the mansion of the boy's wealthy father. End of film. This is a whimperin g, simpering movie and the popcorn was terrible. The only redeeming feature was the boy, whose facial expression and acting were wonderful and who is much too good to be in a movie this bad. 'Murder by Decree' slow flic Review by Michael Tenn , of The TORCH "Murder by Decree," playing at the West 11th Walk-in, is a so-so murder mystery. The plot revolves around a theory that the infamous Jack the Ripper, who terrorized London in the late 1800's, was actually several persons involved in a conspiracy to eliminate witnesses to an indiscretion of the royal family. Christophe r Plummer is a mediocre Sherlock Holmes. The Holmes in the movie is not nearly as intriguing or calculating as the famous Holmes of literature . James Mason as Dr. Watson, on the other hand, turns in a far more creditable performan ce. The Scotland Yard Police are apparently unable to solve the case, yet they refuse to call in the services of Holmes and even try to discourage him when he arrives at a murder scene after being asked to take up the case by a group of London merchants . The movie, directed by Bob Clark, leads us through a series of clandestine meetings, gruesomel y murdered witnesses and a few spots of comic relief. Holmes is finally put on the trail of the murderer by Robert Lees (Donald Sutherland ), a psychic who has been haunted by his involuntar y visions of the killer. Sutherland is quite good as the fragile and fearful space-cade t who can't help what he sees. This is a wonderfully forgettable movie. To insure the proper atmosphere for viewing, I suggest watching it late at night on black-and-white television with poor reception and lots of commercia ls. -- 1----1 •• --- of St.- " Hoots .... family"" Restaurant .~ COMPUTE DINNERS - s1m11a ITEAIS DELECTABLE SEAFOOD - HDME IIADE PIEi I IIOLLI • SOUP .

"I want to see it again!" • "As unresolved as America's position on Viet Nam is today, and in the mm," said Susan Bennett, "this mm does an excellent job of portraying war and its effects on both those who go and those who come home." These are two reactions to the Academy Award winning film of 1979, "The Deer Bunter." It appears that the people who go to see this film do not leave the theater feeling they have seen "just another war film." The movie made definite impressions on the audience. • "I cried during the film in the Viet Nam sequences - I felt emotionally drained and battered afterwards,'' said student Keri Young. ''The film made our group silent, ready for reflection and (feeling) slightly guilty.'' • June Heisler admitted, "I had bad dreams of the scenes of Viet Nam, the POW stockage, etc." • ''I was up all night thinking about the film and crying," said Ronda Robles. "I thought a lot about my uncle who went over to Nam and how, when he came back, he has never really been the same. He fought on the front lines and his best buddy was shot in front of him and things like this happened to him. I never really understood any of these things until I saw the movie .. . This movie really opened my eyes. " Did those who saw the film learn about the war itself? The general answer was no. But for those who were not involved in the war, the film seemed to give an insight into the pressures experienced by the men and women who had gone to Viet Nam. They felt • "Guilty," said Lynda Brown. • "Anguish, empathy, sympathy, love, fear,'' said Karen Zucker. • ''I really feel we owe them (veterans) a lot and that those people who fought in the war went through so much,'' said Theresa Fecker. "I couldn't even imagine it. I also think that the vets must retain some scars ." The vets have retained scars. The film seemed to have brought back old, buried experienced. • "It brought back a lot of bad memorits. I think it's sad what this film will do to some people." (Nameless vet) • "For three nights my wife tells me I've woken up screaming. All I remember is having a bad dream. I guess I had it all st\lffed away, but the movie brought it back." (Nameless vet) • ''The film almost gave the feeling of the fear we had. But it was all the time, day and night, that you spent wondering if you were going to die. It was almost a relief to get shot and sent back home." (Nameless vet) ''The Deer Hunter'' makes no obvious political statement. But the emotional reaction to the film has been very powerful. And very personal. "Stunningly brilliant and beautiful," says Keri Young. Yr~C'4 YrA iJWQ W(J)~ ~~C9Q~WJ Qucoa If it aint, I wanna tell ya dot ya can win some bucks. Fast cash.

Branchfield's wins came in the 100 meters with a time of 11.1, the 400 meter intermediate hurdles at 55 seconds flat, and he ran the first leg of the 400 meter relay, which Lane won with a 3:30.1. "We are coming along well, and eventhough the competition wasn't great, our guys turned in excellent efforts," said track coach Al Tarpenning. According to Tarpenning the Titans are still a iittle weak in the short sprints (100,200) and don't have very much depth in the high jump.triple jump, long jump c • pole vault. The Lane distance team had a good day with firsts in the 5000,10000 and the 1600 meter relays. In the 5000 the Titans finished one-two with Steve Warrey turning in a 15:28.0 for first and Kevin Galbraith running a 16:15.0 for second. Sophomore Joe Cook crossed the tape first in the 800 meters in his first meet of the year, with a 1:58.7. Cook had been out with an injury the first part of the season and was unable to compete. The Titans next action pits them against strong Clackamas a,;td Linn-Benton squads on April 14 in Albany at 1:00 pm.

Magness finishes first in mini IDeet In the U of O Mini Meet Dave Magness finished first in the 1,500 meters with a 3:53.S and Bill Bailey placed third in the shot put (49-3) and discus (144-10). The mini meet is an event in which athletes from LCC, U of O and the Oregon Track Club (OTC) are able to compete in a limited event track and field meet. According to track and field coach Al Tarpenning the meet gives ath~etes a chance to compete in a competitive situation when they might not otherwise have a chance. Tarpenning said he usually sends athletes to the mini meet when their particular event is not offered at regular OCCAA meets or when the Titans already have a number of people competing in the same event.

Men's doubles action highlighted the overall match with Jason Metz and Ken Newman easing by their doubles opponents 6-3, 6-3. "It was basically a one-sided match. Metz and Newman did a really good job in doubles,'' said Wilson. The women fared almost as well, losing only one doubles match. In women's singles, number one ranked Judi Stack breezed through her match 6-1, 6-2. ~[P @[ 9L( ~-- ---- ---- - "Judi just out-classed her opponent in accuracy and strength," commented Wilson.

Lane came back page 11 Jason Metz helped the men's tennis team shutout Warner Paciflc by teaming with Ken PhotobyDennisTachibana Newman in doubles play.

But it's also proved to be LCC's downfall In a number of recent LCC losses, according to Photo by Fred Sieveking baseball coach Bob Foster. from a 3-2 loss in the first game against Chemeketa to win 5-3 in the second game on April 7 in Salem. On April 10 in Pendleton, the Titans clobbered Blue Mtn. in the opener 10-0 before falling in extra innings 10-9 in the nightcap. Eric Stack limited Blue Mtn. to seven hits in the Titans' shutout, while Dave Rusin hit a homerun. his team's problems are a combination of things. "One game we have decent hitting, but our fielding and pitching will be poor. We can't seem to play to our potential," t:xplains Foster. "We have as much or more talent than any team in the league. But we haven't put it all together yet this year," offered Foster. J.D. Whetham, with an outstanding season record, was awarded the most outstanding wrestler by his teammates. According to Coach Bob Creed, this award is the most important in relation to Lane. The most inspirational wrestler award goes to the wrestler who shows the most inititative and support of and among the team. Scott Lingo was awarded this honor because of his constant support at practices and games. The most improved wrestler award went to Kerry Clark. Starting out the season poorly, he came back and placed during the regionals. Season ending statistics show that J.D. Whetham and Ken Bledsoe tied for the most takedowns, with 23 each. DeWayne McDonald won most fall during the season with 4.
