Respo nse to my Oct. 8, 1979 letter, in
which I expressed my concern due to a
lack of veteran representation at Lane
Community College , has been terrific.
There has been a stream of veterans
passing through my office since. They
have all verified my concern as real and
expressed a desire to organize and a
need for representation on campus.
Gary Wilson , ASLCC vice-president ,
and George Krantz, senator, have been
working with Mike Arens to reestablish the LCC Veterans Club. Last
week Mike presented the club for
recognition of the Senate and it was
unanimously approved. The club will
meet each Wednesday at 1 p.m. The
meeting place will be posted in the
ASL CC off ice area.
I encourage al I veterans and concerned folks to take advantage of th is
opportunity. Questions and problems
unique to veterans will be discussed
and answers sought. If you have any
questions or input please contact the
ASLCC, extension 2300.
I would like to rem ind you that I want
to represent the students and help
meet needs the best I can . If you have a
problem or concern thE;1 ASLCC may be
able to help. Please feel free to bring
your thoughts and ideas to us anytime.

Goose tha.t la_ys golden _e ggs rejected
Once upon a time, in a country called Wonderfuland, the
magicians invented a goose that laid golden eggs.
The magicians were very proud of the golden eggs. ''The
golden eggs," they said, "are made of pure golden energy.
They will turn the wheels, light the lights and toast the toast .
Everyone in Wonderfuland will henceforth be rich and never,
never have to labor hard again."
The people of Wonderfuland didn't have the faintest notion
of how the goose worked. But, needless to say , they were
delighted with the golden eggs. They performed exactly as
promised. And the people clamored for all the golden eggs
they could get.
"Golden eggs," said the people, " are the greatest boon to
mankind since Baggies.''
So there was no problem whatsoever with the golden eggs.
Unfortunately , however, there was a problem with the goose.
The goose was an unmitigated mess.

â€¢â€¢â€¢

First of all , it had bad breath. One whiff of the goose's
breath and a person would keel over -- kerplunk!
Permanently.
"Don't worry," said the magicians. "We' II put a lead sack
over the goose's head which will never, never leak." Never?
"Well," said the magicians, "hardly ever."
Secondly, the goose was very high-strung and looked as
though it might blow up at any minute. "Don't worry," said
the magicians. "We'll install magical safeguards to insure
that a goose explosion is absolutely impossible.'' Absolutely?
"Well," said the magicians, "almost positively."
And lastly, the goose's droppings were not only lethally
poisonous at a distance of six blocks, but would remain so for
250,000 years .
"Don't worry," said the magicians, "we'll think of
something." Soon? "Well," said the magicians, "sooner or
later.''
So while everyone wanted the wonderful golden eggs, no
one wanted the smelly, explosive goose anywhere in the
neighborhood. And above all, no one wanted anything to do

with the lethally poisonous droppings -- even though the
magicians encased each bucketful in a yard of lead and
concrete which was guaranteed never, never to crack. For
250,000 years? "Or 12 months," said the magicians.
"Whichever comes first."

Now as Nuclear Power Concern Week
concludes, everyone should be more
than normally aware of some of the
energy problems the nation, the world,
and the people are facing.
It seems like a good time to sit down
and write about your feelings -- what
should America's energy outlook be as
we start the 1980s?
No matter what your thoughts, opinions, strategies, or whimsical solutions,
write them down and submit then to the
TORCH before 5 p.m. Nov. 15.
The TORCH will award a $50 cash
prize for the best serious essay on
energy AND $50 for the best humorous
piece.
See me, or Darlene Gore, in The
TORCH office, Center 205, for further
details.

â€¢â€¢â€¢
While the people continued to enjoy the blessings of the
golden eggs, in no time the magicians were up to their elbows
in unwanted goose droopings. It was at this point that the
Wise King of Wonderfuland had a wonderfully wise idea:
Â· "Henceforth," he decreed, "anyone who speaks in favor
of the goose must agree to board that dangerous, odoriferous
creature in his back yard.
"And' anyone who accepts a golden egg must also accept a
bucket of goose droopings to store for the next 250,000 years
in his garage."
Oddly enough, the demand for golden eggs dropped
overnight to zilch. Nor did anyone have a kind word to say for
the now-useless goose. And so it was that the people of
Wonderfuland killed the goose that laid the golden eggs and
lived happily ever after.
Ever after? "Well," said the magicians. "back to the old
drawing board.''

Alvergue visits White House

to discuss SALT 11 with Â·Carter
by Sarah Jenkins
of The TORCH

"I thought I'd just won a Vega-matic," jokes George Alvergue, brandishing an
official-looking cablegram. '' I almost fell down the stairs when I read it.''
When an LCC social science instructor is invited to the White House for a briefing
with the president and the national's top national security advisor, it is no laughing
matter. The entire college community takes it very seriously. So does George
Alvergue, jokes aside. Last week Alvergue received the cablegram from
Washington, D.C. requesting his attendance at a briefing on the Strategic Arms
Limitation Treaty (SALT II) to be held Wednesday, Nov. 7.
Alvergue, a consumer affairs expert, was more than a little baffled by the
president's interest in his opinions on international relations. But, after a quick call to
Jeff Arnold, an ex-LCC student who is currently serving an internship with Oregon
Senator Mark Hatfield, the matter was explained.
The U.S. I USSR SALT 11 agreement is now being debated in the senate, and,
Alvergue believes, "(President) Carter is trying to drum up a little support for the
treaty.'' So, in what is basically a public relations move, Carter gave each of the Pacific
Northwest's six senators 50 invitations to a "personal" SALT II briefing.
Alvergue was invited by Hatfield, Oregon's senior senator, because he served as
Hatfield's Lane County chairman in the last election. All of the senator's other col.rnty
chairmen also received invitations.
"Yes,,Â·, admits Alvergue with almost a straight face, "politics does have its
rewards.''
Lest anyone be concerned that a consumer affairs instructor from LCC prove a total
innocent in discussing SALT 11, Alvergue quickly points out that he earned his
master's degree in international relations. But, he adds, "That was in the early '60s
and I need some brushing up.''
Like Hatfield, Alvergue is opposed to the treaty "in its present form." "I'd play a
little cautious." he exolains. "There are still too many unanswered questions. We
know already that a treaty with the Soviets cannot be predicated on trust - that just
won't work. "There has to be some other way to check on it.''
After several days of intensive personal "brushing up," Alvergue left Eugene
Tuesday night aboard a "red-eye special" flight to Washington.
The presidential briefing was scheduled for Wednesday morning in the East Room
of the White Huse. In addition to the 300 invited guests, Zbigniew Brzezinski, the
president's assistant for national security affairs, will also be present.
After the briefing, a buffet luncheon in the Senate Dining Room was also planned.
Alvergue is scheduled to return to Eugene Thursday afternoon.

America through an lranian~s eyes
Feature by Lucy White
of The TORCH

''We had a discussion in one of my
classes and the teacher told us Iranians
and Arabs are really rich. I said "No,
Iranians are NOT rich! Don't mix us
up.''
Eli, who declined to use her real
name, has often had her nationality
mistaken. She becomes incensed when
confused or categorized with Arabs.
We all make rash judgements -- form
stereotypes -- of people we don't really
know. And Eli is no exception. When we
asked Eli if she would be willing to share
her first impressions of American life
and Americans (LCC students and other
international students in particular) she
agreed. Her responses are candid, and
often contradictory and prejudicial.

On Arab students
Eli believes, for example, that many
Saudi Arabians are extremely wealthy
because of their ownership of oil, but she
insists that the average Iranian is not as
rich because the money is spread out
over a larger population in Iran.
She admits that petro-dollars do flow
into Iran, but, she says, "I don't know
what happens to our oi I money.''
She is resentful of Arab students
because her own government does not
subsidize her American education, while
the Arab governments are "sending
tuition money for Arab students,'' she
says.
"I see them in the cafeteria, just
sitting or chasing the girls. It makes me
angry! They think that they are handsome, and (that) they can get (buy)
anything th_at they want. They all have

cute Trans Ams." But Eli admits she has
not had any experiences with Arabian
men.

On American stereotypes
of international students
Eli, who has just turned 19, has only
lived in the U.S. for seven months. In
that time she has become aware of social
stereotyping and prejudice.
For example, a woman in one of her
classes gave a speech alleging that many
foreign students at LCC are considered
to be cheaters. '' My brother (who was
also taking the class) was really mad,
and I was mad, too, because I study a
lot! I don't want somebody tell me 'you
are cheater!" says Eli indigantly, her
large brown eyes widening.

On Americans
According to Eli, Arab men aren't the
only ones who are pre-occupied with
what money can buy. In a far reaching
generality, Eli says Arabs spend' money
to be noticeable, while Americans are
noticeably cheap.
''Whenever I get a Pepsi for myself I
treat all my friends. But here, Americans
say, "Oh, if I buy that stuff for
everybody it will cost (too much) and I
could save it for tomorrow!"
Eli feels that money is not that
important in Iran, and that Americans
over emphasize it. And, she says, this
self-centered attitude extends beyond
just money.
In Iran, "If you have a problem, ai'I the
people have that problem.'' But Americans won't go out of their way to help,
she believes.
Eli is especially critical of American

))

women, many of whom she feels are
catty and insincere.
They compliment her without meaning
a word of it, she explains, or they are too
casual to her -- saying "hi" but then just
walking away.
"I think that Americans are just like a
machine, a computer," she adds dramatically.
Eli has also formulated some generalized, stereotypical opinions concerning
American men and the way they treat
women.
"I think they are just kind of flirty,"
she says with annoyance. ''They ask me
out a lot, but I don't like to get dates."
She does not find this forwardness and
"flirtyness" with Iranian men, because
she says that in Iran, if a woman doesn't
show an interest, a man really doesn't
"push" her.

On American sex-mores
Social mores, expecially sexual mores,
are much more strict in Iran, and sex
outside of marriage is forbidden. Eli
went through some intense ''culture
shock" when she encountered so many
American couples living together out of
wedlock.
Eli has also found the U.S. to be far
more liberal in terms of drinking and
dancing. Eli says those activities were
common during the Shah Mohammad
Reza Pahlavi's reign, but that it has
changed since the Ayatollah Rhahroolah
Khomeini gained control of Iran's government.

On the Iranian government
As a Moslem, Eli believes in the
actions of the Ayatollah, but is vague

After controversy and questions, both
the men's and women's cross country
teams will compete this weekend at
the NJCAA National Meet in Wichita,
Kan.

))

about the political details.
She feels that, as well as being a much
more strict and religious leader,
Khomeini is "kind of against the
Americans right now, because he thinks
all the problems in Iran are the
American's fault.
''The Shah was much more in favor of
Americans, and was willing to sell oil to
the U.S. in exchange for weapons and
guns." But, Eli explains, "Khomeini is
not going to do that. He says, "We don't
need any weapons inside the country,
because we don't have any civil war. We
are human, we can't kill each other."
If this conflicts with reports of
numerous "politically motivated" executions since Khomeini's 1978 coup,
she denies it.
"I think (Khomeini's) doing the right
thing," she declares, "because that is
the right punishment according to Islam
religion.''
But Eli does not think he is "doing the
right thing" in urging Iranian students
to take over the American embassy in
Tehran." (The people in the embassy)
are just doing their jobs!" she says.
And though Eli considers Khomeini
her moral, political and spiritual leader,
and believes he is an improvement over
the Shah, in a sense, she owes her being
here to the Shah and his pro-American
views. She obtained her visa before the
Revolution which ousted the Shah.
In the past, students were usually
allowed more mobility than under the
new regime. But, considering the recent
developments to extradite the Shah, and
Iran's growing pugnacity with the U.S. it
will now (probably) be much more
difficult for ALL Iranians to get permission to visit the U.S.

The debate scheduled for Wednesday, Nov. 7, as part of Nuclear Power
Concern Week was cancelled. Representatives from both Portland General
Electric and Pacific Power and Light
refused to participate.
According to Pepi Stolt, Student
Resource Center director, PGE said it
was too far to send a representative to
Eugene for just an afternoon, and that
it would be "politically unsound" to
argue in a debate with EWEB Commissioner John Barte/ls.
Instead, a film concerning nuclear
plants and radioactive wastes was
shown . After the film Larry Spears,
from the Trojan Visitors' Center,
spoke.
Spears claimed nuclear power is the
cheapest form of evergy available. He
said solar power is not only more
expensive, but has not yet been proven
more effective than nuclear.
Spears admitted that nuclear power
plants aren't "perfect, " but claimed
that the"routine operation of a coal
plant is much more hazardous. "
Sandy Pitier, a member of the Trojan
Decommissioning Alliance, then took
the floor. He called nuclear industry
officials, like Spears, "technocrats. "
Pitier also challenged Spears' statement that nuclear power is inexpensive. Trojan cost "$468 million to build

Pitier claimed.

Three KLCC Radio employees are now
also teaching part-time in the Mass
Communications Department.
A vacancy caused by the resignation
last spring of radio instructor Jeff Young
has permitted Department Head Jim
Dunne to experiment with staffing for
the radio program. Dunne feels the
experiment has paid off.
Dunne, who is also General Manager
of KLCC radio, asked three KLCC
employees to teach one class each. Sam
Hochberg and Thurston Briscoe teach
audio production, while Gina Ing
handles CWE supervision. In addition to
Dunne teaching Fundamentals In Media, all three have bachelor's degrees
and professional experience in the field.
Dunne maintains that the quality of

vacancy created by Jeff Young 's departure. Dunne states that he ''prefers''
part-time people to fill the teaching
needs. "It gives us flexibility. For
example, there's not much point in
hiring someone to teach Audio Production full-time, because we don't have
enough work for a full-time audio
production person. So to (pay) some
people who can take-on a single class is a
really good deal ... I can bring in high
quality people to teach single classes,
which is fine."
Sam Hochberg, full-time program
director at KLCC and now a part-time
Audio Production teacher, thinks the
idea has merit, too. "The fact that we're
(KLCC employees) all working professionals is a very positive mark for the
students. We're all in the business and
we're regularly dealing with the things
we're teaching."
Hochberg says he's not teaching a
"radio class," when he teaches audio
Production: "It's not an announcing
class or a disc jockey class. It's a class for
teaching audio skills that can be applied
to radio, audio for television, audio for
film, audio for mixing music groups, and
public address mixing."

The artistic . importance of gettin9
maximum salad to minimum plate
Feature by Donna Mitchell
for The TORCH

No pai nter 's brush technique was ever
studied with more fervor or appreciation
than are the salad-building techniques
exhibited every day in the LCC Cafeteria.
Not a place for , the timid or fainthearted , the create-your-own-salad bar
offers many opportunities for serious
students to observe ski Iled practicioners
of the art.
Large bowls of salad greens, flanked
by dishes of garnishes and vegetables
with bright colors like the pigments on
an artist's palette, await the sure eye
and deft hands of a master arranger.
Since salad arrangers are usually
charged by the plate, highest accolades
are reserved for content , rather than
form .
The goal as expressed by master
bu ilders: " Maximum amount of salad on
a minimum amount of plate.'' Discovery
of a more efficient way to pack a plate is
akin to the thrill of developing a new art
form .
Unlike practicioners of other fine arts ,
salad builders are quite willing to pass
along their hard won secrets; a spirit of
camaraderie prevails along the line,
perhaps growing out of a shared sense of
beating the system.
As a fairly new observer on the line, I
have a lot to learn about the subtleties of
construction , but I do feel qualified to
pass along a few basic principles.
Although there are many approaches
to the construction of a superior salad,
the basic element seems to be the salad
dressing -- the arranger's "glue,"

The TORCH

binding the various elements into a
cohesive whole.
It is the dressing which keeps the
croutons from rolling off the sides and
prevents the kidney beans from winding
up underfoot.
Another point to bear in mind is that
tomatoes, cauliflower, mushrooms, and
cucumbers can be ringed around the
perimeter of the plate, leaving room for
other vegetables in the main body of the
salad.
Some artisans prefer to use the
"mountain peak " approach, piling as
they go -- esthetically pleasing, but not
very efficient. I find it more effective to
flatten as I go, preventing the loss of
bean sprouts and corn to gravity's
influence, and enabling me to get niore
on the plate.
There are those who feel it is more
tasteful to take less salad and devote
more attention to its visual impact.
These people can be seen deliberating
thoughtfully over the placement of every
cherry tomato and carrot stick.
Proud creators of a towering salad,
lovingly lavished with extras, face one
more challenge to their creativity when
the time comes to eat what they have
sculpted. Each tentative poke with a fork
dislodges great masses of green, depositing them on the f1oor, in the lap of
the artist , or across the table top.
The solution to this problem seems to
be either to regretfully let the vegetables
remain where they are, or to develop a
supreme indifference to the fact that you
are eating directly from your tap and the
top of your neighbor's math textbook.
Any salad sculptor worthy of the name
will probably opt for the latter choice.

Energy issues discussed
A lternat ive energy is a major topic of discussion now that the nation's gas,
food, and utilit y prices are skyroc,keting to an all-time high. So on Oct. 27, 75
peop le, paying a fee of $18 each, attended an all day statewide conference in
Eugene on energy, co-sponsored by the Cascadian Regional Library (CAREL)
and Oregon Self- Reliance.
'' W e are here (at the conference) to exchange ideas and to talk about
strategies fo r implimenting the energy transition," explains Nancy Cosper,
co-oroanizer of the conference from CAREL.
The Appropri ate t echnology (AT) Conference for Oregon gave alternative energy
groups throughout the state a chance to compare notes and re-evaluate their
goals before the next meeting of the legislature in 1981, adds Brian Livingston ,
secretary of CA REL. By combining the efforts of the individual groups, he
explains further, the movement will have a clearer sense of direction. '' Then when
the legislation is in session we can give testimony on various bills ," he says. The
groups wIII be much more influential as a whole, he claims.
The conferen ce was not only a success on a political level but on a busi ness
level as well.
" Well, one of the things that happens a lot is that we get very much involved
in our own perspectives and we don ' t realize how we duplicate one anothers
efforts, ' ' acknowledges Cosper. So a large emphasis was placed on determi ni ng
what areas were overlapping and what areas were lacking within the groups in
terms of commu nity action , workshops, supplying information, learning what
energy plans work and what energy plans don ' t work.
"'We can move faster if we're not re-discovering the wheel ," she says with a
smile.
â€¢
A two-ho ur rap session about AT was held at the close of the conference and
one of the controversial issues that arose during that discussion was the
"Jackson proposal." While most of the people present objected to the bill
because th ey believed it would centralize power, some suggested that the
alternative energy groups should be prepared for the money, $300 ,000, which
would be available for energy development.
In a separate conversation Livingston explained that the public utilities use
hyd ro-e lectric power , which is cheaper than thermal-electric power used by
private utilities which have to charge more. He says hydro-power is stable at this â€¢
poin t and there is no room to build more dams. The law, as it is now, states that
public ut i lities can sell their excess energy to private utilities and businesses .
But the bill would allow Bonneville Power Administration , which is funding the
bill, to poo~t he prices of private utilities (decreasing the cost) with that of pub lic
utilities (increasing the cost) so that the overall price would be the same .
Livingston argues t hat " if tax payers pay for public util ities they shou ld be
ent itled to the benefits. "
The bill has been passed by the U.S. Senate and is still bein g con sidered by
the House .
But the overall consensus of the group was that AT in Oregon was advancing
despi te any opposition or resistance from private utilities and people who don ' t
welcome the change.
Even th ough progress is being made many peoP,le don ' t know what to do once
the decision to actively conserve energy has been reached.
One man summed it up by making an analogy to war. '' You figh t so hard and
think the enemy is stronger. And you don't realize when you ' ve won. Then you
don ' t spend enough time thinking about what you're going to. do afterwards. "

For those women who can't tell a carburetor from a cranks.haft -- and would like to
remedy the situation -- take heart. LCC's Adult Education Mechanics Program may be
just what you're looking for.
Orin Demerist's "Auto Mechanics for the Novice" class was initially for women only.
Now it is open to men as well. but 12 of his 18 students are women.
They range in age from 16 to 65 years old and have equally varied occupations -- two
attorneys, a realtor, several . salespersons, housewives and students.
Demerist explains that the two major objectives of the class are to acquaint students
with their own vehicles, and to help them deal with any highway or roadside problems
that can occur. Students also get a practical knowledge of how a car works.
"Most women come to the class for one thing," Demerist explains. "They want to
know their own car, so that they can understand what the problem is and what they are
being told when they do take their car in to the shop.''
Wayne Workman teaches a similar class, "Basic Tune up.". In the six years that he
has taught the class, he estimates that, out of a 25-person class, six or eight will be
women.
Like Demerist he has had women students of all ages aÂ·nd all occupations.
Workman explains that his class is designed for the' 'average motorist" who wants to
learn basic skills, such as changing spark plugs or points.
He divides his students into two categories : Those people who are trying to beat the
cost of living and want to learn money saving techniques and those people who have
money but "just like to get out in the garage and find out what makes (vehicles) tick. "
Wtiile women at Lane have long had the opportunity to learn the ins and outs of
mechanics, women thoughollt the community now have that chance.
Starting Nov. 5, 15 independent Atlantic Richfield (ARCO) dealers will be holding
free "Car Care -- Not for Men Only" clinics in the Eugene/Springfield area.
Administered by the League of Women Voters of Central Lane County, the two and a
half hour clinics are designed principally for women, but anyone age 16 or over may
attend.
The clinic curriculum features an instructional slide show, plus "hands-on" practice
in such basic skills as operating a self-serv gas pump, changing a tire, jump-starting a
battery and .checking tire pressure and fluid levels. Tips on maintenance, trouble
shooting and safety are also included. And, all participants will receive complimentary
reference material kits and tire pressure gauges.
The League of Women Voters (LWV) and ARCO both emphasize that a well
maintained car not only conserves energy and reduces fuel costs, but also emits less
pollution.
But motorists are not the only ones benefitting from the car care clinics. ARCO
Marketing Representative John Sweeney agrees that the ARCO management ''felt this
would be good for PR.''
''The clinics (were created) because a need exists,'' explains Sweeney. In fact, the car
care clinic concept was originally suggested by a female ARCO employee.
"As far as I know," Sweeney continues "ARCO is the only one (providing this
service.)" But he points out that not all ARCO dealers are involved, "Only those who
want to be and who have the adequate space and facilities necessary.'' Roughly 50 per
cent, according to Sweeney.
The clinics, which originated two years ago in California, have been held in several
California and East Coast communities. Close to 10,000 women have already received
training.
Some vacancies still remain, according to LWV official Sharon Posner, but space is
limited.
To make reservations call 484-7268, between 10 a.m. and 5 p.m., Monday through
Friday or from 10 a.m. to noon on Saturday.

The TORCH

Nov. 8 - ~ 1979

Men's group breaks down'machoism'
.

by Megan O'Neill
for The TORCH

There are many other options for men besides being
"The Marlboro Man."
But, "so many men are being pulled along by the
stereotypes society has imposed, rather than putting on
the skids and saying, 'Wait a minute. Do I really want
to be doing this? Is this good for me?"' says Lon
Laughlin, coordinator of a new Men's Discussion Group
at LCC.
The small, informal group meets every Thursday in
room 219 in the Center Bldg. at 2:30 p.m. to explore the
limitations of being male in today's society. Historically, men have had to maintain such a rigidity, that the
exploration of new areas is hard for them, says
Laughlin.

Laughlin, in the TORCH interview last week, said the
biggest obstacle facing men is their feelings: "It's just
so hard to get men to reach out. To seek help. To
become friends. To open up and share their feelings
and to support each other. To feel good about being
together for other things besides talking about
baseball, footbaU and competition. And getting down to
a real personal level -- having a personal discussion
with just men,'' said Laughlin, a student who began the
group this Fall along with LCC counselor Tim Blood.
"Men that come to the discussion group and take
'their shoes off,' (become comfortable) and contribute
to the conversation are taking a big step in terms
of ... historical stereotypes," remarked Laughlin.
Advertisments and the portrayal of men in the
media reinforce male stereotypes and help pull men
along, into the status-quo American, says Laughlin.

"The Marlboro Man, the double-vested suit, competition and success" are all values TV commercials and
magazine ads stress, he says: Success is defined by
where a man ends up in life, rather than by the clean
expression of his personal feelings, Laughlin says to
illustrate his point.
To Laughlin, there are a lot of other things pulling
men along, but "a lot of the oppression is here (within
ourselves). So, we have to deal with that." And the
discussion group is a place to begin.
Laughlin and Tim Blood can talk to any man
personally about the group, but also invite men to
participate at the Thursday meetings in room 219
Center, across from the Women's Awareness Center.
Blood's office is in the counselling center, and
Laughlin works as a student service associate in the
Career lnformation Center near the library entrance.

Vets, colle<Je u'nder _fire from VA policy changes
If veterans cut classes at LCC, they
may put the college -- and themselves -in financial jeopardy, according to new
VA rules.

If â€¢the college fails to notify the
Veteran's Administration within 30 days
of a veteran's non-attendance in a class
or program, LCC could be liable for
veteran's overpayments.
And, if veterans neglect to notify their
instructors if they are absent due to
illness, or other valid reason, the vets
may find themselves without their
monthly checks.
Barbara Harmon, veteran's coordinator at LCC, reports that a change in
interpretation of regulations by the
central office in Washington, D.C., has
necessitated a major overhaul of the
Veteran's Office procedure for determining veteran's class attendance.
"Prior to this new interpretation, we
had to report absences 30 days after the
facts became known to us. So we could
wait til the end of the term and then we
had 30 days, because the facts don't
become known to us until grade time,"
she explains. Now, however, "They (the
VA) have asked the schools to notify
them 30 days after a student ceases

A form is sent to each instructor
during the fifth and eighth week of
classes, asking teh instructor to indicate
whether the veteran listed is still
attending class, says Harmon. After the
forms have been returned and the
results sent through data processing,
they are then sent to the regional VA
office in Portland. There, says Harmon,
"They look at the form we fill out -- they
look at the drop date and they l9ok at the
processing date, and if it's over thirty
days they throw it in a separate place.

over 30 days, then they look to the school
for liability."
Harmon stresses that this new procedure could result in problems for
veterans if they neglect to notify an
instructor of reasons for an absence from
class. Because of the time limitation, the
Veteran 's Office will not be able to check
with each veteran prior to reporting a
change of hours to the Veteran's
Administration, so she cautions, "If
you're going to be absent, be sure and
check with the instructor and let him/ her
know that you're not dropping out -- that
you're ill or for some special reasons will
be absent for a week or two."

American life, such as the conveniences
and efficient service, quite impressive.
And in spite of her initial pointed
opinions concerning Americans, Eli has
made several close friends. '' I love
them!'' She exclaims. '' I can talk to
them easily and I can trust them. And I
feel that they understand me.''
"If I didn't like it here," Eli sums up,
"I wouldn't have stayed." Eli has had
the opportunity to move back home but
has opted to stay until she has finished
her education.

by Sarah Jenkins
of The TORCH
A question over the eligibility of a
runner from Idaho left the results from
last weekend's Region 18 Cross Country
Championships in doubt.
But, according to Al Terpenning,
LCC's head coach, there is no doubt that
his team will compete in the National
Championships this weekend in Wichita,
Kan.
Officially, the Titan men finished
second in the regional meet, just three
points behind Ricks College of Idaho.
But LCC Athletics Department officials
have asked the National Junior College
Athletic Association (NJCAA) for a
ruling on the eligibility of Ricks' Derek
Shirley.
Shirley placed third behind LCC's
Steve Warrey and Jamin Aasum. According to Mike Arnold, Lane's sports
information director, Shirley has allegedly already competed for two years at
the junior college level. "Al (Tarpenning) figured he would be disqualified,''
Arnold explains.
But, when the meet team results were
tallied, Region 18 officials did not
disqualify Shirley and Ricks took first.
If he had been disqualified, the Titans
would have taken the team honors -- and
the automatic trip to the NJCAA meet -by just one point.
According to NJCAA rules, Lane's
second place finish qualified the team to
compete in the national meet. But

Association (OCCAA) guidelines, which

But the tension has been worth it,
Arnold adds. "Tarp wouldn't fight this
hard to take a team back there,'' he
speculates, '' if he didn't think thev
would finish in the top five. Or even,''
Arnold adds cautiously, "have a shot at
first."
The squad traveling to the nationals in
Wichita, Kan. includes Jeff Hildebrandt
(who did not compete in the regionals
because of illness), Jamin Aasum, Kelly
Hansen, Bob Shisler, Fred Sproul, and
Brian Muessle.

Titan men take

OCCAA honors
The OCCAA scoring of last Saturday's
men's race was much simpler -- the
Titans swept first through sixth place,
accumulating a team score of only 15
points. Mt. Hood Community College
was a distant second with 78 points.
Taking the conference championship
for the ninth straight time was an easy
feat for the Titans, as only 22 seconds
separated the first finisher (Steve
Warrey) and the sixth (Brian Muessle).

While controversy clouded the men's
meet, the Titan women cross country
runners dominated the field to win both
the OCCAA and Region 18 team crowns.
Lane's Trudi Kessler set the pace for
LCC's women as she placed fourth in
19:20 on the flat, 5,000-meter course at
the Sunriver Golf Course in Bend. Close
behind were her teammates Sandy

Gina Ing says money raised from
RADIOTHON will be used to purchase
needed equipment, and supplies -everything from pens, pencils, paper, to
desks for volunteers, as well as to pay
the costs for producing special programming such as women's and minority affairs programs. ''The station is

Listeners of KLCC radio will once
again be asked to put their money where
their ears are Nov. 12 through 19.
The" Make Friends With Your Radio"
Radiothon is the vehicle KLCC uses to
ask its 14,000 weekly I isteners for
financial support. KLCC is asking this
community for pled~c:s of $12,000. Last
March KLCC received $13,711 from its
''friends.''
A listener who pledges a basic
membership of $20 will receive the
monthly KLCC Program Guide, the new
KLCC bumper sticker and ''the undying
thanks of the KLCC Radio staff,"
according to Gina Ing, KLCC development director.
Listeners will be encouraged to pledge
more than the basic $20 membership. As
encouragement, businesses have donated services and goods that KLCC will
be able to offer for higher pledges. For
example, Storm Seafoods will donate a
seven pound salmon worth at least $35
and the University Theatre will donate a
pair of tickets for December per~ormances valued between $25 and
$30 dollars. The Larry Natwick Trio will
donate a performance to someone willing
to pledge $250. And, many other

Out of KLCC's total operating budget
of $135,987, the station hopes "friends"
will pledge $24,000 of support, which
also includes $2,093 already received
from businesses underwriting programming at KLCC. The Corporation for
Public Broadcasting provides $33,256
and the college adds the greatest figure
-- $78,731 -- to make KLCC 's budget
complete.
KLCC, a non-profit, public radio
station , ranks as the sixth most popular
station nationally among the National
Public Radio system. This figure is
based on a per capita listening audience
and does not include the fact that
Eugene has a total of 14 competing radio
stations.

Gill Coliseum endures big Knack attack
Feature by Carla Schwartz
of The TORCH

Corvallis will get Knacked Nov. 11
when those highly controversial recording artists appear at Gill Coliseum.
The Knack has been subject to
disapproval by many critics and musicians alike for its alleged attempts to
duplicate the Beatles in style, publicity
and success.
The music on its debut album is
reminiscent of the early Beatie era, but
The slower
features saucier lyrics.
songs, especially "Your Number or Your
Name" and "Lucinda" contain the
familiar quality of "I Wanna Hold Your
Hand" with one major exception: The
Knack obviously wants to hold more than
hands.
Many comparisons to the Beatles have
been inevitable. The titles of their first
albums, "Meet the Beatles" and "Get

the Knack, ' ' are similar. Both bands
have strictly enforced a no-interview
policy. Both have recorded on Capitol
Records and the Knack chose to use the
exact label design used by the Beatles in
the early '60s .
The label is "a multi-colored ring with
a black center," says Terry Atkinson, a
writer for Rolling Stone magazine.
"My Sharona," the Knack's first hit
was recorded in only one take and
spawned the following hits "She's So
Selfish," "Frustrated," "Good Girls
Don't," and "That's What the Little
Girls Do."
Several years ago a British band,
Klatuu, was hyped as the ''new Beatles,'' as was Badfinger in the late '60s
and early '70s. Dire Straits' Dylanesque
vocals helped the band rise to a number
one position on the charts last year.

Look-alike/sound-alikes have become
common place these days, but seldom
have they evoked as much hostility as
the Knack.
One Knack-hater, Hugh Brown of San
Fransisco, has devised a "Knuke the
Knack'' campaign in protest of the
His kit includes a
band's conduct.
t-shirt, button and a "Honk If You've
Slept with Sharona'' bumper sticker.
Brown, according to At'kinson, has
sold his kits to the likes of Bram
Tchaikovsky and Patti Smith, both new
wave artists. But so far, Brown's best
customers have been the Knack members themselves, who purchased half a
dozen kits.
Kristine McKenna of the Los Angeles
Times writes in her negative review of
the band, ''They package their mind rot
as cute teenage fun and target it at

malleable 14-year-olds." McKenna also
accused the band of being blatantly
sexist and of portraying women as mere
sex objects.
Lucy Richat, music director at a
college radio station in Palo Alto, Calif.
says, ''The Knack's ersatz pop and smug
PQSing'' would be all right if the band
"had one ounce of (the Beatles')
freshness and innocence." But, she
declares, '' Right now it's just offensive."
Still, Knack-lovers seem to outweigh
Knack-haters and several songs off the
album have made their way to the top of
the charts.
Tickets for the Knack's Corvallis
appearance can be obtained at Everybody's Records in Eugene and Corvallis
and through Meier & Frank in Salem.
Reserve seats are $6.50 and $7.

There are still seats available for "Don't Drink the Water," LCC's production of
Woody Allen's comedy. Performances are scheduled for Nov. 9 and 10 and 14 to 17.
"Good seats do remain," Dick Reid says, production coordinator for LCC's
Performing Arts Department.
But Reid is concerned that not enough people are aware of the "student rush"
policy. Students purchasing tickets one hour before the show can get in for half price.
However, Reid warns this policy applies only to unclaimed reserve seats.
"Ashland has a similar policy," he adds.
The play itself is about a family of typical American tourists who are accused of
spying while on vacation in a Communist European country. The plot also contains
"amorous escapades," according to Reid.
Tickets cost $4 in advance for "Don't Drink the Water", $2 at the door an hour
before showtime. Performances begin at 8 p.m.
