Board ponders
by Sarah Brown
of The TORCH
In a surprise move at Wednesday night's Board of Education
meeting, former faculty union
president Art Tegger asked the
board to reconsider its previous
denial of a merger between the
full-time faculty union and the
High School Completion/ Adult
Basic Education faculties.
The merger, in effect, could
produce similar contracts for the
faculty units, which have always
bargained separately with the
board over pay scales and work
load policies, among other
issues.

Board members Catherine
Lauris and Larry Perry moved and
seconded a motion to reopen
discussion of the topic. After
unanimous approval by the six
board members present, discussion focused mainly on the practicality of such a merger.
Board member Stephen Reid
said there is a collective bargaining process available to the
unions and that he felt the unions
should let the petition go through
that process.

says because in most cases the

"Actually, there is no indication that the title changes had any
major effect on enrollment. Other
departments have in the past, for
various reasons, changed the
titles of courses and experienced
little difficulty.''
Ragozzino does believe the

tonk in the world . . . and the
place was huge ... had a massive
dance floor ... three mechanical
bulls . . . and the owner,
Gilley, sold his own brand of beer
with his picture on the label.

''There were plenty of cowboys
in the place, but I saw no fights
between them. I've seen more
fights in Eugene than I saw in the
whole state of Texas. For the
most part everyone I met were
damn nice folks."
The unlimited landscape he
saw, the country music he heard
and the dances he learned in the
honky tonks made Texas great -a whole show. It was the quality
of the people that attracted his
attention most.

'The folks I met in
Texas were gener~
ally warmer and
less defensive.'
Underneath the down-to-earth
form is genuine substance, he
says. The people work hard, play
hard, enjoy their Lone Star beer.
They also hold strong values
toward their lifestyle. When asked to cite some prose that might
best reflect this frame of mind,
Art refers to Larry McMurrty' s
description of the Texan spirit:
''Cowboys could perform terrible hard labor, bone grinding
hardships, then consider
themselves the chosen ones of
the earth . ... they were riders
first and last. I've known
cowboys broken in body, twisted
in spirit, bruised in debt, failure,
/onliness, disease, and most
other afflictions of man, but I've
seldom known one who has not
considered himself phenomenally
blessed to be a cowboy, or one
who could not cancel half the
miseries of his existence by
dwelling on the horses he'd ridden, and comrades he's had. ...
''Things seemed distinctly
more open and friendly down
there. The folks I met in Texas
were generally warmer and less
defensive, More time and effort
was put into the friendships that I
made.

''What I saw in the honky
tonks that I visited was simply
people having a good time -laughing at everything around
them, including themselves. You
know, you can enjoy the hell out
of Texas, even without putting on
the boots. The culture is so charming, so appealing, that you want
to become a part of it.
"Yet, you can pick up on the
style, and still ignore the
substance .
In Eugene, you might see a
big fellow wearing a cowboy hat,
meaning he's supposed to be
tough; down there, it's more of a
sign of openness, of being selfassured while still being open to
other people and friendships,
without necessarily meaning
tough."
11

A person's apparel -- be it a
Brooks' Brothers three-piece or
faded denims -- is not always an
indication of what kind of human
being he or she might be. The
wearer of Gucci loafers may. be
just as genuine and sincere as the
wearer of a pair of cowboy boots.
It wasn •t the dress code that
made an impression on Art Tegger. He didn't bring back the
trappings so he could be a
counterfeit cowpoke.
It was the idea behind the
Western form that he picked-up
and brought back: The idea of being as open and receptive to other
people as the Texas landscape is
wide and open.
''When you leave someone ,''
Art adds, ''they say 'Y'all come
back and see us real soon,' and
you get the feeling they really
mean it."
After a trip to the Southwest the
LCC literature and composition instructor continues to show the
same enthusiasm for his subjects
-- but he's added a folksier edge
on his style.
He wears cowboy boots.
" They' re comfortable," he
says. For in-class wear. For
riding his Honda.
And if you hear him roll by in
his Porsche 914 it' II be to the
tune of Mac Davis singing ''Texas
in my Rear View Mirror."

Dance club forrned at LCC
····.

I
··,'@..UM
.

Arms and legs moving in all directions. Slowly, then
swiftly. High and low. Graceful movements. Abrupt.
'' Dancing is an expressive art,·' says Ann Ki pert, a performer of the Lane Dance Theatre (LDT), a club formed this
term at LCC. ''When we dance, we try to put ourselves in
certain situations. Sometimes we're told to dance like a
feeling, to express the feeling the way we would want the
audience to interpret it.''
LDT currently boasts 10 dancers. They rehearse 10 to
15 hours per week and receive Cooperative Work Experience credit for their efforts.
The main objectives of the group, as listed in the constitution, '' are to encourage an appreciation for the art of
dance at LCC; to give students interested in dance the opportunity to be involved with the creative process of
choreographing dances; and to design a dance company
atmosphere that offers specific experiences of what is involved in such a commitment."
"I love to dance," says Kipert. "I channel all my
energy into it. It's a release for me."
Beth Huston, another LDT performer, finds dancing an
excellent way to keep in shape. '' I have fun doing that by
dancing," she says. "As your muscles tone up, and you
get more flexible, you become more aware of your body.
You can see your progress."
And, Kipert adds, "The group works together really
well. Everybody's so enthusiastic.''
LCC instuctor Mary Seereiter, advisor and
choreographer for the group, focuses mainly on four basic
styles of dance: Ballet, improvization, jazz and modern. "I
choreograph the dances by listening to the music and then
watching the way people react to the pieces," she explains. '' Being a dance instructor is really beneficial
because some pieces evolve from phrases I use in other
classes. Then I can combine them together. I get ideas,
expand on them and manipulate those ideas.
·'I hope to keep experimenting and working with people
on dances,'' adds Seereiter. ·'Everyone in the LDT is so
enthusiastic and motivated . In the future we hope to expend the group to 20 dancers and to see a growth in the
dance department.''
LDT is funded through the lntramurals Department,
which covers part of the cost of costumes, advertisements, graphics, and props.
The dancers will present free studio performances
March 5 and 12 at 4 p.m. in the Auxiliary gym. They will
also dance at the WOW Hall on March 8, at 7 p.m. ·, and at
8 p.m. March 20, 21 and 22.

REVIEWS

Literature------------ M u s i c - - - - - - - Observations
Russell Baker
Reading Russell Baker's latest
collection of columns, So This is
Depravity, I tried to mark all the
places where I laughed out loud,
the quotable quotes and the most
thought provoking of the serious
passages. But by page 218 -, 'The papers keep saying that the
dollar is very weak. This is
nonsense. The truth is that the
dollar is absolutely powerless. I
sent one out for a pound of
cheese the other day and it was
thrown out of the shop for giving
itself airs." -- I had 817
bookmarks, and they kept falling
out of the book and littering the
floor, so I'll quote only a few of
the highlights of this fine collection of political satire and
analysis.
As befits a New York Times columnist, Baker has an excellent
vocabulary expressed in elegant
syntax. He also has a rich inventive sense of humor which we are
fortunate to have him share with
us. "Internal Revenue Eve is
always a joyous time at our
house. Grandmother always
comes over early in the day to
take charge of the kitchen and
soon the air is rich with the good
smell of roasting checkbook and
Grandmother's delicious minced

pay voucher. Mother will have
been up since dawn scrubbing
and polishing J.K. Lasser's tax
guide ... In the fireplace we have
a blazing copy of the tax code and
stockings are hung by the
chimney with care in hope that
H&R Block soon will be there.''

the Vietnam war or with various
presidencies now over, and
though slightly outdated, these
pieces are stlll worth reading.
"Cultivated Killing," "Bomb
Math," and "The Moods of
Washington," for instance, are
as informative and revealing as
any straight history of the times.
Perhaps no distinction should be
made between the ''serious'' and
"humorous" pieces. The humor
is often serious at heart, telling us
something we need to know about
ourselves and our society, as
Baker deftly deflates snobbery,
New Yorkerism, New Age New
Speak, neuroticism, racism, sexism, media manipulation, etc.

Or consider Baker's tale of the
plight of Dr. Irving Slezak, the
brilliant genetics researcher attempting to cross a truck driver
and a state policeman. He hopes
to produce a '' brand new form of
life -- a truck driver who, immediately upon exceeding the
speed limit, would pull himself
over and give h.imself a ticket.''
Alas, when poor Slezak tried to
quit smoking by crossing himself
The book's only flaw is its

Movies-------------The Competition
Valley River Twin
After a long absence from the
screen, Richard Dreyfuss has
returned.
It is a leaner, tauter Dreyfuss
than appeared in former films. He
has miraculously transformed
himself into someone ten years
younger for the part of Paul in The
Competition.
What could have been a real
washed-out-battle-of-the-sexes
flick develops instead into a sensitive, believable commentary on
people being people together.
In the cut-throat world of
classical piano competition, Paul
has reached the end of his
youthful edge. Once hailed as the
most gifted and powerful pianist
"for his age," he now comes in
second or third; never first.
His parents have put every
dime they have into his musical
career. Every year, he comes
within a hair's breadth of winning, only to lose.
He decides to try one last time.
His father's health is failing,
funds are running out. And by
next year, he will be too old to
qualify.
Then there is Heidi, (Amy Irving) who is 22 and has studied
piano for the past four years with
Greta (Lee Remick). After months
of pushing, Greta feels that Heidi
is ready to compete and sends off
a tape recorded by her (Greta) but
has Heidi's name on it. Heidi is
accepted as a finalist.
Most of the focus is on aspects
of the competition itself. There

Monty Python
Contractual Obligation
British humor. Silly and
frivolous, often nonsensical, utterly ridiculous, ludicrous,
satirical and overdone. Muddy
knees have got me all aquiver ...
Monty Pythons' s Contractual
Obligation album is a compilation
of 24 short skits shot out in rapid
order. There are few noticable
strings attaching the gags to form
any kind or recognizable theme.
Assorted attacks upon British
authors, religion ethnic groups,
and celebrities mark the
assemblage. It's more of a
shotgun approach, firing away
blindly at most anything worthy of
insult.
At one point after the albums
release a few months ago, the LP
was allegedly jerked off the
market. It seems somebody found
the sound of John Denver being
strangled a trifle too offensive.
However, the album is currently
being sold in local record stores
with the Farewell to John Denver
piece included. Possibly by
popular demand?
Of course ·Mr. Rocky Mountain
Moneybags is only one of many to
be cut down by the Pythons.
Other sketches of biting satire
and social commentary include
Henry Kissenger, Never be Rude
to an Arab, I like Chinese, Bishop
Doing Beer Commercials,
Finland, and some things that
might be considered equally as
offensive to many individuals.
From the Martyrdom of St Victor:
St. Victor was lain upon pillows
of silk and stoketh there was he
by maidens of the Orient. And his
hair they rubbeth and the soles of
his feet they did licketh, and with
the tips of their teeth did they nibblith at the tips of his ears and the
tongues of their mouths did
become aquainted with his most
private places. . .St. Victor
withstood this treatment until
upon the 15th day he did cry out
"This is fantastic, 0, this is terrific. '' And the Lord heard his cry
and verily came down he and
slew the maidens, laying their .
Kleenex to waste utterly. . .And
St. Victor cried out '' The Lord is a
rotten Bastard. ''
The group takes several potshots at religion in general on the
album. Another segment has
residents of a flat near a church

*

being continually anr )yed by the
bloody racket of churchbells, ending with the church moving
down the lane towards them until ·
they finally utilize a bomb from
their attic to stop the rampaging

Historical and contemporary
events receive equal ribbing between the woeful tale of Decomposing Com posers (Bach,
Beethoven, etc.) and the history
of a rock group named the Dead
Monkeys, also known as the
Dead Salmon, Trout, Fried Trout,
Poached Salmon, Poached
Salmon and the White Wine
Sauce, Dead Herring, Lead Her-ring and Helen Shapiro(a difficult
time for the group since their
drummer was thought dead. It
turned out to be just a rumor.)
Within the rather illogical
framework of the Pythons' communication, lie statements of
varying significance and/ or importance. One that epitimizes the
groups humor /message sending
is in Crocodiles.
The scene is at the Olympic
games where British athletes are
awaiting the race to become
crocodile feed. The object of the
sport is to be the first man on the
field to get eaten by the
crocodiles. While the outstanding
coaches discuss with the announcer the debate over unlimited
body garnishing (to be more appetizing for the gators) versus the
standard Olympic mayonnaise,
the annoucer himself sums up the
reality of the games: "Where today's champion becomes tomorrows crocodile shit.'' By Jeff

Women's Studies examines issues

This week's Forum was submitted by Women's Studies instructor Kate Barry.

This brief contribution to the
Forum is offered both to clear up
some confusions about the
Women's Studies classes and to
extend an invitation to participate
in them.
Women's lives and experience
in this country are changing.
Women are in the labor force and
higher education in ever increasing numbers. For example,
women students are now in the
majority at LCC. Sex role
stereotyping and discrimination in

the_job market are public issues
that most people are aware of and
institutions are expected to address. Women's studies offers
you an understanding of these
changes and their relevance to
your life.
Sex is one of the basic
reference points around which
societies are organized. As such,
being female or male aff~cts what
you will be expected to do, the
way you relate to others, how you
define your individual identity and
how you are defined culturally.
Women's Studies examines these
issues, sorts out myths from
realities and looks at how these

have changed over time.
Reevaluating women and men's
roles in this way Is not just
academical.ly relevant, it can help
you understand the events which
confront people daily in school, in
their jobs, in the media, in personal life.
One source of confusion about
the classes lies in their numbering. A "WS" credit may look like
an unlikely candidate to usefully
fill anyone's transcript whatever
their interest in the subject. To
make the nature of the claS$eS
more visible the numbering has
been changed as of Spring term
so that all class_es except In-

=======Letters to the Editor==
EPUD wins
To the Editor
The Feb. 17 ballot measure on
the Emerald PU D produced the
largest voter turnout in a Lane
County special election in 20
years. Such a result speaks well
for our concerned and informed
electorate and for our process of
decision making.
The solid yes vote on EPUD's
bonds (56 percent) also speaks
well for the ability of those local
voters to search out the facts
within a complex issue.
My personal thanks go out to
each of you who took time to at- .
tend one of the 50 Emerald public
information meetings (or to read
our information pamphlets), to
the local news for fairly and adequately covering this issue, and
to all who gave their time and participated in this successful bond
measure campaign. Each of t~ese
activities is necessary for intelligent decisions on public
policies.
Now, with or without PP&L's
cooperation, the Emerald PU Dhas
both the mandate and the means
to pursue lower rates and local
control for our consumers. I
believe our board is committed to
those directions.
Down the road, I'm sure the
residents of Cottage Grove,
Creswell, Coburg and Junction

qty will see the benefit of locally
owning their electric utility. At the
appropriate time I will welcome
the opportunity to renew that
discussion. In the meantime, the
Emerald People's Utility District
will proceed towards energizing.
My thanks again.

SPAM notes

To the Editor:
,
Some notes on SPAM ...
SPAM is NOT, as you suggest,
an exclusively "punk" concept.
It is at once a symbol and a symptom of the disease calle.d
American Society, and, as such,
is utilized by ·a much wider range
of people.
Several local Xerox artists have
had their art destroyed and their
very lives threatened by religious
fanatics and similarly damaged
sorts seeking "revenge" for
SPAM. This display of aggression
is as misplaced as it is sick, as
most Xerox artists regard SPAM
as a rather feeble joke, and would
not risk spray painting it
themselves.
SPAM vandalism was introduced to Eugene by an extreme avant
garde underground artists society
called the Chronic Youth. They
are responsible for the majority of
really bizarre and/or creative
graffiti, such as "WHO IS LIPS

Save flovvers

A severe epidemic of spring
fever is raging at LCC, resulting
in the loss of more than half the
daffodils on campus.
Grounds Manager David
Wienecke says the flowers were
planted because, come spring, "I
wanted everybody to enjoy the
color.'' The campus is green
enough, he adds, "but all that
green gets boring sometimes.,.,_
But people just need to be
aware of the problem, says
Wienecke. "One person takes a
couple and · thinks it's OK. But
when ten people do that. . . ''
"The tulips will be out next,"
says Wienecke. '' If we could
save those, it would be nice."
Otherwise, he says, ''We'll have

NOT responsible for the common
"SPAM"code, which started out
as ''Support Punk Amatuer Musicians," and blossomed at the
same time as Chronic spraying.
The graffiti on the WOW hall was
done by members of a Portland
New Wave band and has nothing
to do with Spam or Chronic
Youth.
The Willamette Valley
Observer's policy of deleting
SPAM ads will only serve to increase the flood of vandalism, as
'' Operation Abspam ·' was
originally CREATED as a reaction
to over zealous censorship by
local publications. SPAM is a
social comment which has proven
its own cynical point by having
become popular. It now exists only because Eugene neo-patriots
continue to fight it.

answers, the two are not identical. The Women's Movement is
a social movement with the broad
aim of equality for women;
Women's Studies is a growing
body of knowledge which researches · and discusses the experience of over half of humanity.
Whatever your specific educational goals, whether these lie in a
vocational program, pursuing an
academic degree or in greater
social awareness, exploring your
relation to the other half of the
population is central to
understanding experience. It will
raise ·new issues, new questions
and some new answers.

Perhaps you have never
thought of these issues, or feel
that the classes are irrelevant to
your particular program or have
confused Women's Studies with
the Women's Movement. While

ASLCC news

On Feb. 17, the ASLCC ratified a change in Bylaws which increased the number of Senators-atlarge from seven to nine. Several rationale were cited
for the increase.
First, the full-time enrollment was projected to increase somewhat ( 1.6 percent) from 1980 to 1981.
Hence, the need for added numerical and
demographically diverserepresentationwas apparent .
Secondly , the work load of both Executive Cabinet and
Senators-at -large steadily on the increase (i .e. commhte assignments) , ASLCC felt that a numerical increase would allow Senate members to focus their
energies and higher quality work would result. Finally. ASLCC has noticed a significant increase in the
number of quality students interested in participating
in the student government process . Your Student
Senate felt a few more of these interested people
should have the opportunity to contribute their talents
to ASLCC , the result of this input has been the creation of two added Senate positions .
Any student who is interested in participating in the
Student Senate for the remainder of the 1980-81
school year should contact ASLCC at ext. 2330 or
Center 479 Criteria for qualification for these two
positions along with a complete job description are
available at our office . We urge you to participate , as
these positions must be filled as soon as possible. To
ensure LCC the finest student representation possible, your input and interest are a must.
