Lane Community College Vol. 22, No. 7 November 5 - Ne oc:nhti H:, 1981 4000 E. 30th Ave. Eugene, OR 97405 Students alerted to hepatitis case Analysis by Larry Swanson of the TORCH Two weeks ago the TORCH learned that an instructor in LCC's Health Occupations Department had contracted hepatitis. Hepatitis, a communicable disease affecting liver functions, can be contracted several ways depending on the type of hepatitis involved. Steve Modesitt, a communtiy health nurse at the Lane County Health Division, says there are three varieties of the disease caused by viruses. He says Type A, or infec.;, tious hepatitis, is often transmitted by food-handlers who don't wash thoroughly after using the rest room; Type or serum hepatitis, is transmitted several ways including through sex realtions, and contaminated devices used in blood transfusions~ drug injections, dialysis treatment and ear piercing; and Type non-A, non-B hepatitis is mainly transmitted through blood transfusions. He also says that Type B can be transmitted by exposure to . an affected person's saliva. He says dental workers, because they work in the mouth, are especially susceptible to this mode of transmission. However, they are unlikely to transmit the disease by working in people's mouths. The ill instructor, who is B, New games" Newreven es •....Y: Ne~. \ ·, .-'{ presently on a leave of absence, worked in the LCC dental hygiene area and is often exposed to peoples' saliva. All three types of hepatitis cause similar symptoms -fever, fatigue, weight loss, nausea and abdominal discomfort followed by jaundice -- and receive similar treatment. The TORCH contacted the Lane County Health Division, Douglas White, head of the Health Occupations Department, and several other college administrators in an effort to determine whether this incident presents any health hazards to LCC students or staff. The Lane County Health Division would not confirm that an LCC employee had contracted the disease, but Jeannette Bobst, a clinic supervisor in the division's communicable disease branch, said, "If there was a health hazard, we would be the first one to ring the bell.'' Hank Douda, LCC's director of employee relations, told the TORCH that students in the instructor's classes had been informed that the instructor had hepatitis. But Douda could not specify in what manner the classes were informed or what type of hepatitis was involved. At this point, the TORCH determined since students had by Dale Sinner for the TORCH machines -- for the student government's budget, and 10 percent for the administrative costs incurred with the machines. Last year the ASLCC earned over $20,000 from these sources, using the money to pay for on-campus performances by bands and other entertainers, and to sup.. port student clubs and ASLCC activities. In fact it was the ASLCC which suggested bringing video games to campus last year as another source of income to supplement vending revenues and pay for a proposed campus recreation room, ,according to ASLCC President Ruben Robles. But that plan was temporarily shelved because of difficulties- in finding a suitable space for a recreation room that would not interfere with the activities of other departments, reports Robles. This summer, the suggestion for video games came up again when the Department of Athletics demonstrated the need for some source of funds to support athlete travel to intercollegate competitions. An ad hoc committee under the Dean of Students' jurisdiction then approved the installation of the video games on a trial basis. A new policy providing for the allocation of these new A quarter may riot seem like a lot .of money. But quarters add up -- especially if they're pumped into one of LCC's four video games in the foyer of the Health and Physical E_ducation Building. These four newly-installed machines brought-in $1,075.50 for LCC during a two-month period between August and Oct. 12. But instead of being allocated to the Associated Students of LCC as is the policy with all other campus vending machine revenues, this money is being deposited into a new and specialized account. Initially earmarked for the Athletic and Performing Arts Departments, LCC's share of video game receipts will be used to pay for travel expenses when students compete or perform as individuals or in teams or groups associated with LCC. LCC staff members will . not ordinarily qualify to use this travel fund, according to Dean of Students Jack Carter. Distinction This new policy separates. "amusement machines" from a 16-year old policy that reserves 90 percent of all ''vending machine'' income -from the campus juke box, candy, cigarette and pop Photo by Bonnie Nicholas been notified that the matter was in the public domain. And , there were no guarantees that students were thoroughly informed. We stated earlier that it was difficult for someone working in the mouth to transmit Type B. But dental workers are susceptible to contracting the disease from their subjects. This factor points to a possible serious oversight by health and college officials and leads directly to our primary reason for pursuing this matter. The following questions need to be answered: • Has the college determined Turn to HEP A TITIS, page S funds, drawn up by the Office of Student Services, reads as follows: '' Amustment machines may be used only to generate travel monies for groups, individuals, or competitive teams involved in colJegesports or a ppr o v ed instruction-related extracurricular performances or competitions, when provisions for such funds do not otherwise exist. " Not Limited to Athletes Although this special travel account was originally ear.: marked for students in the Athletics and Performing Arts, Carter says students from all departments can qualify as long as the terms of the policy are met. Carter's office is now developing application procedures. Carter adds that the video games are at LCC on a trial basis through an informal agreement with a local vending company, Amusement Unlimited, Inc., which submitted the best current ''bid'' -- which means the best split of the total receipts, in this case, 50-50. A formal contract is pending upon the completion of the bidding process, says Carter. According to Bert Dotson, assistant to the college president, LCC has ''no policy for or against electronic games."

Northcote Parkinson gave us many practical laws; e.g., "Work expands so as to fill the time available for its completion." Were he a community college employee, he could probably create aditional axioms directly relevant to us. Here are a few possibilities: • Staff members think they are running the school. Administrators believe they are in control. Students do not listen to either group. • Students never ask questions for fear of being thought ignorant. Instructors never ask questions for fear of being told "no.,, The only thing administrators know how to ao is ask questions. • Most "real" learning takes place outside of the classroom, yet classroom lectures are still the most heavily emphasized form of collegiate instruction. • The first comment made to any suggestion: It will never work.

Some teachers have .not read a scholarly book in the past month. The list could go on, but what would be the point? Pessimism hardly ever cures illness, fixes flat tires or wins football games. It never improves educational institutions. Besides, Lane Community College is a darn good school with fewer problems than most. Praise rather than criticism is more appropriate. Do we really need a Productivity Center? The answer is yes and no. The Productivity Center's mission (as directed by President Schafer and the Productivity Steering Committee) is ''to optimize the use of resources that enable growth for students, community and staff in a quality work environment.,, This is certainly a task which has always concerned our staff, but several factors make its achievement increasingly difficult. , First, our financial base is rapidly eroding. State funds for the next fiscal year are presently set at the same level as this year with no allowance for the inflating economy. There is a possibility that a special session of the Legislature may reduce funding even further. Either of these situations will force us to economize. Second, technology is advancing faster than it can be assimilated into the educational environment. It has been said that if our thousand year old ancestors were to return from the dead, they would be totally dazed by world-wide changes, but feel right at home in our schools. LCC is a national leader in video instruction, computing and other alternative instructional techniques, but voice synthesizers, satellite communication systems and enormous data banks already make us obsolete. The human element of education must never be replaced; however, if machines can make some instruction more effective and efficient, it is our responsibility to change. Third, education is not immune to the new cultural and societal values of our staff and students. Participative management with more employee input is a way of life in the world,s most productive businesses/industries. LCC should follow suit. The LCC Productivity Center will provide active support for our staff and students in coping with these three challenges. We will soon be announcing a Productivity Suggestion Program to solicit cost cutting and instruction improving ideas. Our Quality Circle Program is already functioning in six areas --Downtown Center Adult Education Secretaries, Mechanics Aviation l Maintenance, Women,s Programs, Data Processing Programmers, Study Skills and Social Science. The result is more staff participation in quality of work life improvement. We will also be helping administrators more carefully define and measure the school,s educational outcomes so productivity can be recognized and rewarded. , These all take time, and space here restricts explanation of all the details; however, staff and students are already feeling pos1t1ve results from our efforts. And now back to the question of whether LCC needs a Productivity Center. Yes, right now we do. But once our productivity is defined and measurable, once everyone totally understands their roles in solving our problems, and once we have a stronger, more supporting and trusting staff team, it will no longer need to exist. Good-by Productivity 1 Center! In the meantime, I am humbled by my role in developing the Center. President Schafer certainly supports our efforts. The Deans, Quality Circle Facilitators and Steering Committee regularly provide me with guidance. Julie Aspinwall-Lamberts, the Center,s Associate Director, is assisting with excellent background in program evaluation and research. Our center is a national first, our entire college staff is the greatest and it's exciting to be a part! Your help and advice is necessary and appreciated. Don't hesitate to call us at extension 2803. Letters DoUars fo·r blood To The Editor; It is a sad state of affairs when the TORCH can glorify the role of a plasma center during an economic depression. When folks are working, it is not uncommon for them to sweat for a dollar; · when you're poor and unemployed, you can bleed for a dollar. True, if the recipient is lucky that plasma could save their life -- but at what cost? Although the machines that spin the blood and the staff who run the center cost a lot to maintain, the end price for that pint of plasma is often $50 to $i00, and more! Those who have their lives saved can now look forward to spending the rest of their lives in debt -paying for inflated medical bills whose cost is increased by similar methods in all areas --from plasma to drugs, to doctors, to hospitals. Can,t you balance your view with a nice article about the Red Cross? Although they are also imperfect, they ask you to donate your blood for free. (And please note that freely given blood is a donation, while those who are paid are actually selling their blood and allowing those who re-sell it to make a profit from it.) Those who truly donate their blood often will receive it for free, should they ever need a transfusion. Sounds like a better trade-off; rn save your life if you,ll save mine. Personally, when my brother or sister lays dying, regardless of sex-race-creedcolor-or whatever, I'd rather give them a chance to live. Otherwise, at $10 a pint, you put a very cheap price on that person,s life . . . and your own. ly examine the issue enough to realize the absurdity of their stand. For instance, from the genetic perspective, nobody can seriously propose a child is non-human prior to birth, only to miraculously turn human afterwards. If one believed birth was the point we turn human, they'd have to justify the position by proposing I) geographical location determines whether an infant is human (deserving legal protection or not), or 2) air contains a magic element, which doesn't enter the child's circulatory system until it pops out the birth canal. Actually, the factor which makes us human, as opposed to non-human, is our genetic endowment. Remember--all living creatures possess genes, but our particular genes give us our unique human characteristics. A biopsy (tissue sample examination) from an unborn child yields genes human in every respect, yet the Supreme Court ignores its rights just as it did when it labeled Negroes three-fifths persons before the Civil War. Also, unlike an organ within a woman's body, an unborn child isn,t just a "growth.,, Its biochemical and genetic characteristics are human, yet its genetic composition isn,t identical to the mother. It also possesses all the differentiated cells required for individual survival long before birth, responds to physiological and psychological stimuli, and above all has a functioning brain. All things considered, can we possibly label an unborn child anything but human? Michael Cross Kevin A. Hayden Genetic make-up key to life?

Th~ TORCH No.vernber. 5: ~ls umtse( ti 198.1 Pag~ 3 350 attend Lane Forum meeting by Randall Layton of the TORCH Nearly 350 people turned out to propose solutions for Lane County's economic problems Oct. 28 during the first meeting of the United Lane Forum. The United Lane Forum is part of an economic development effort launched by business and government leaders patterned after a similiar program in San Antonio, Texas. The other arm of that effort is the Lane Economic Foundation, a business organization that hopes to collect $500,000 from the business community to finance its first year of operations. The focus of discussions continued in a vein similar to the first open meeting last month at the Valley River Inn, as panel members continued to talk about economic diversification, centering on Lane County's dependence on the lumber industry. After the panel discussion, moderator Don Murray opened the floor for comments. Suggestions varied, but one frequently expressed theme was that one goal of the economic development program should be to help existing businesses survive. Among those who spoke was Jim Williams of Springfield. He voiced concern that Forum sponsors have concentrated on attracting new industry to Lane County prior to obtaining community agreement about what should be done. Christine Taylor of Pleasant Hill called for an expansion of the area's agricultural market. She said Lane County farmers should develop foreign markets. Jim Trayhern of Eugene said that this area is faced with an ''image problem'' because outsiders think the community will not welcome new residents or businesses. Trayhern proposed that area newspapers and radio and televison stations contribute to a fund to buy advertising to promote this area in national magazines such as Time and Fortune. Michael Coan of Santa Clara said government should provide incentives for small existing businesses rather than channel efforts to attract new industry to the community. Fast introduces "Quality" by Larry Swanson of the TORCH and other problem solving skills. He says similar programs have been used in Japan with great success since the late 1950s. Seventeen campus groups wanted to participate in the program, but Fast says only six could be supported because a limited number of trained people were available to organize the circles. He says more quality circles will be formed in January or February. Kathy Ging of Eugene encouraged more development of solar energy industry here, noting that solar rooftop heating, solar remodeling and other solar energy applications have a large job potential. Fred Simmons of Springfield said the area should be looking for businesses that don't require a large amount of capital and for marketing assistance for local product manufacturers to establish sales outside the community. have two hours, bro." He received applause when referring to the Sunday ban. After the meeting, panel members said they were pleased with the turnout and the input given. It was also announced that a series of workshops entitled "Lane County's Economy: The 80's and Beyond" will ' be held at the Lane County Fairground's Convention Center Nov. 19 and 20. The workshops are cosponsored by the Lane County Board of Commissioners, Lane County Chamber of Commerce and the Lane County Department of Employment and Training. Topics will cover the role of tourism in Lane County, expanding sales in foreign markets, domestic expansion and capital formation and financial packaging for small business.

But that's exactly what Casey Fast is doing.

Page 4, November 5 - cintb 1-i, The TORCH ''We give the children a lot of choices, a lot of freedom, but it's within a framework." LCC's Development Center Learning to be a teacher can be a difficult experience. ·Learning to be a student isn't easy, either. At LCC' s Child Development Center, both children learning to be students and students learning to be teachers try to find out what they need to know while functioning in the same schoolroom atmosphere. The campus center, licensed for 30 kids (it has a waiting list of 40 more) has been a haven for 3 to 5 year old children since the college opened in 1964-65. The college also runs a similar center at Dunn Elementary School. Working at the center fulfills one of the requirements for an associate's degree in Early Childhood Education (ECE). This term 44 ECE students work in the center for two, four, and sometimes up to six hours a day. Story by Jeff Keating Photos by . Lisa· Jones "Lavonne" holds a captivated audience with her storytime tale. Activities at the center range from storytelling to outdoor play. "We have a developmental philosophy here,'' says Marci Temple, the Center's head teacher. "We give the children a lot of choices, a lot of freedom, but it's within a framework." Since children develop at certain ages, and in different stages, it's important to have a program with "few limits, but very strong limits," Temple • adds. The schedule is devised to keep the children intellectually stimulated throughout the day. Since the attention span of a young child is very short and increases with age, one half-hour per activity is alloted. Activities are diverse, ranging from painting to free outdoor play. Besides scheduled activities, '' discovery centers'' are located in different places around the room. The centers contain books, music and other resources. They also lend credence to another part of the developmental philosophy -- active times should be balanced with quiet activities. Planning fieldtrips is another of the center's attempts to expand the horizons of its preschool members. The trips are usually to local downtown areas or to the surrounding countryside. "Kids have a better feel for things when they can see them and touch them," says Temple. "The fieldtrips allow them to experience firsthand what they're learning about here." All of the activities, worked into a weekly theme, help the kids to concentrate on one thing at a time while leaving room for changes. Another important function of the center is to care for the children psychologically by helping them to say what they feel. For example, a class com- • IS 0 child's place posed of 25 girls and just 5 boys may lead to a number of disagreements and squabbles. Temple says these fights are typical for 3-to-5-year-olds, are not serious and are solved fairly simply. "If a child is out of control, we try to get him to redirect his energies," Temple says. "We want the kids to express their feelings. They leave the group until they're under control, then they can come back. It works pretty well.'' Temple noted that the center is a place for positive direction, and that "we're trying to tell the kids the things they can do, and not the things they can't. We're here for 'do's,' not 'don't's.' " She added that the center is a consistent environment for both the children and the ECE students, because ''they both need something like that. They shouldn't have to walk into a completely different setting every day. As it is, the kids know the students and the students know the kids." As for future goals, Temple feels that the center is doing pretty well right now. ''This is going to be remodeled sometime ... maybe,'' she says, gesturing with her hands to encompass the classroom. "The only other thing I can think of is an infant/toddler center -we've been trying to get one of those for a long time, though, and nothing's been happening. But we're really okay here." This being her first year as head teacher (she has worked at the center for five years) Marci Temple finds herself with a lot of responsibility. But it's evident her job is not a problem for her. '' I love it,'' she says with a smile. . o_Lsr I~, 1981 Page 5 H E P A T I T I S - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - . ; . . __ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ __ . . . The TORCH November 5 - N Continued from page 1 whether the instructor contracted the disease from one of his students? • What s.teps have been taken to guarantee that students will be adequately informed and properly treated? • Will students involved be reimbursed by the college for incurred medical expenses? By Nov. 4, the TORCH obtained only one of the answers to these questions: Douda told the TORCH that the school's insurance would cover any medical costs incurred by affected students who consult medical authorities, "subject to a look by the college's insurance carriers.'' White refused to answer any of the questions. He says the issue is a personnel problem not under his jurisdiction and continually referred the TORCH to Douda. Finally, on Nov. 4, LCC President Eldon Schafer, after being queried on the subject by the TORCH, said he thought the information should be released, and that he would meet with White and other officials. when the However, TORCH attempted to contact White at the time of publication, we were informed that he was out of town for the evening. Since the issue was too crucial to pass by another week, we decided to publish the information we have gathered to date. Hepatitis Killed One Student Conversations with health officials don't point to an immediate health threat on campus. But this incident may recall memories of the 1976 death of a former LCC student. 1 Terry Chronister had dropped out of LCC two to three weeks before she was diagnosed as having Type B hepatitis. How Chronister contracted the disease was never deter- mined. But an LCC Food Services employee had contracted Type B hepatitis approximate1y five weeks before Chronister was diagnosed as having the disease. Several other cases of the disease involving the LCC community were reported at about the same time. No links among any of these cases were ever identified. "Dirty Image" The TORCH's 1976 coverage of the Chronister case pointed out what Bobst calls hepatitis' "dirty image." her department is trying to dispell this image.

She says cases of Type A, if they pose a threat to the community, are announced to the media. She says cases of Type B are rarely made public because of their limited modes of transmission. AUTO SERVICE Do you really want to spend Thanksgiving, Christmas, New Years Eve, and Day Valentines alone? Now is the time to begin looking for that special someone. same person may be unaware of his or her condition, and may be a health threat to others. But the nature of the work conditions in this case are unique. And it is possible that the instructor contracted the disease from an unknown person in the performance of his job. In that story, two of Chronister' s friends said their doctors' first question when they sought medical advice was, "Was she a junkie?" Bobst says the use of contaminated hypodermic needles is indeed one way to transmit the disease, but stresses that the disease can be transmitted in several other ways. She says 746-0564 This eventuality means that that the form of hepatitis contracted by the instructor is Type B.

Looking at pieces at the ell that beau, ime and effive plete the nt,'' one of Three of those five years were spent slaving over the drawings, and the remaining two years spent in constructing the window. Stained glass tends to be an expensive medium. His "Panels of the Flamingos," another object at the current exhibit, cost $14,000 to create, according to Peterson. The climate for sales of stained glass has been good until recently. In Peterson's case, private individuals purchase his work more than do businesses. Peterson is critical of some of what passes for st~ined glass art. "Most of it is pretty bad in general," he says. "A lot of it is treated as a craft and con sequently it doesn't have the impact of an art form.'~ In each of Peterson's works several different types of glass are used. In the Winged Elephant alone he used five or six types. He purchased some in Portland, some in Eastern United States and some in Europe. "You can go to a glass store and they will carry five or six different manufacturers, so you don't have to always travel great distances,'' he says. Tenold Peterson is a man of many facets, just like the glass with which he works. Peterson has been an instructor at LCC for seven years now because, he says, "I felt I had a debt to pay and I didn't want to be a full-time instructor, so I decided to teach one class." Peterson resides in Junction City where he has two studios approximately the size of the LCC Gallery. One is for cutting glass, and the other for machines he uses in his work. To view more of Peterson's work, a trip to the Mill Camp Restaurant in Springfield where his work is a permanent fixture is bound to be a delightful experience. ~ f_.,,,'-" fr ~ ' -f ·• , r .· ' ,•·"". r· ~· .~/ l / . .•• . - • • . ··1 ., ' I I I ll.·• fi.

Inspired by the teachings of Anna Halprin and her Movement Ritual, Betty Edwards' book Drawing from the Right Side of the Brain, and Ruth Zapora's exploration of sound and movement, instructor Liz Jeans hopes to help people "have a better understanding of themselves." Jeans' workshop will focus on the "Movement Ritual." The ritual includes moving yoga positions and breathing. With a partner's aid, workshop participants will be guided through the ritual. After becoming physically familiar with it, additional layers are added to that foundation. Participants will be adding on such layers as voice, experiments with sounds and verbal images, and a clearer perception of ones movement through space. Drawing will also be incorporated in the workshop by using Betty Edwards' book "Drawing From the Right Side of the Brain." Edwards emphasizes methods for tuning in to the intuitive side of the brain. Jeans explains that the right side of the brain is the creative side and the left side is analytical. She says assumptions that use of the creative part of the brain is a gift -something you're born with -are false: "It's not just a little gift. It can be trained." Jeans emphasizes that her --;m work_sho\', help in everyday hfe. It 11 show where you hold tension and how to release it," she says, "It's nice for people to see something they thought they couldn't do and bring it within their reach.'' Jeans, a dance instructor at the Community Center for Performing Arts (CCP A), has been teaching for five years. The inspiration for her new workshop came from experimentations with Anna Halprin 's movement ritual while recently visiting San Francisco. Jeans hopes to make the workshop a regular event. "I can't imagine expression not being important to anyone.'' The workshop will be held Nov. 9-12 from 7-9 p.m. at the WOW Hall (8th and Lincoln). The cost for the entire workshop is $25. KLCC schedules fund-rais er by Lee Evans for the TORCH Won't you put your money where your ears are? KLCC will "radiothon" through the week of Nov. 9-16, broadcasting for a goal of $25,000. Faced with cutbacks in federal and local support, '' KLCC is more dependent on listener support than ever before," according to KLCC Development Director Paula Chan-Gallagher. She says the average pledge from supporters of past radiothons is $20, which works out to be a nickle a day for steady listeners. Supporters will receive a program guide for a year, a bumper sticker, and "quality programming throughout the year," says Gallagher. KLCC is depending on radiothon pledges to pay a remaining match of $15,000 to the National Telecommunica- tions Information Act (NTIA) equipment grant. As a result of the NTIA grant, KLCC: • Has tripled its power to 30,000 watts. • Has installed translators in Oak Ridge and Cottage Grove. A third translator is currently being installed in Florence. • Will rebuild antiquated studios with state-of-the-art equipment. As a community service to Lane Community College, KLCC receives about 50 percent of its budget from the college's general fund, 25 percent from the Corporation of Public Broadcasting and 25 percent from semi-annual radiothons. Businesses from Lane County will donate premiums to be given away to pledgers. Premiums vary including a haircut at Creative Id, a case of wine at Amity Vineyards and a $25 gift certificate at Films on Childbirth "Daughters of Time" A look at nurse-midwives in the U.S. today, shown recently on OEPBS "Birth Center Choices" A film made locally by Charles Norgaard showing a variety of birth experiences at a Birth Center.

Gallagher says that besides providing needed funding for KLCC operations, the radiothon also lets the station's producers prepare special programming that exhibits the variety and capability of community radio. Some of these efforts include: • Monday 11 p.m. -- Live electronic music performed by Peter Nothnagle and Devarahi. Nothnagle will also feature previously unaired work from Eugene area electronic music composers. • Tuesday 3:30 p.m. -- Interviews with the 1981 Monterey Jazz Festival artists. • Wednesday noon -- A special observation on Veteran's Day on the Blue Plate Special. • Thursday, 7:30 p.m. -Songs of work, struggle, and change. spea k at by Jeff Keating of the TORCH Robert Anton Wilson, author of the trilogy Illuminatus, and several awardwinning Eugene area science fiction writers will gather in Eugene Nov. 7 at Uni-Con, a day of workshops ahd readings.

Born in Hood River, Damon Knight, a local resident, is one of science fiction's most important figures. His novels include Hell's Pavement and A For Anything,. He is also the editor of the award-winning ORBIT sdence fiction anthology series, and with his wife~ Kate Wilhelm, is active in science fiction workshops around the country. Wilhelm, a native of Kentucky, has been writing since 1956. Best-known for Where Late The Sweet Birds Sang, un CO n ·1 - ,8 l her 1976 Nebula and Hugo award-winning book, Wilhelm has published many novels and short story collections, including Juniper Time (1979) and A Sense of Shadow (1981), both novels set in Oregon. Also featured in the UniCon workshops are John Varley, a Eugene resident who has published the Nebula award-winning The Persistence of Vision, a short story, as well as four novels and many collections, anci Geoffrey - Simmons, a local author who has published three novels, including The Z Papers and The Adam Experiment. The day's activities will open with a -new writer's panel, a showcase of emerging talent, and will work their way through author's readings and question and answer sessions. The day will close with an evening talk by visionary futurist Dr. Robert Anton Wilson. Uni-Con is being held at the Grand Illusions building, 412 Pearl St., Eugene.

The TORCH November 5 - l>iJ8¾iiiiiL SPORTS Harris leads LCC women spikers to '81 championship -Sports Notes by Connie Boggs of the TORCH 17-15. They were down 14-5 before starting their comeback in that game. Athlete of the Week Freshman goalie Joe Wright caught a penalty kick last Wednesday as the LCC men's soccer team defeated the University of Oregon 2-0. Joe Wright Photo by Bonnie Nicholas '' I was pleasantly surprised," said Wright of his catch. "It was a good, hard kick. I : just anticipated that it would come to the right side of the goal." "Joe is a young and new player,'' said Coach George Gyorgfalvy. ''He is at his peak in performance right now. He made a catch that most goalies have never done.'' Soccer The men's soccer team scored two victories this past week, defeating the University of Oregon 2-0 and Lewis and Clark Community College 4-0. The wins evened the Titans' record at 3-3. The Titans will travel to Clackamas this Saturday to face the undefeated Cougar team. Coach George Gyorgfalvy says the game is an important one to the team. A victory would put the men into the play-offs, a defeat would kill the team's playoff hopes. "Things do not look good for us right now. If we lose to Clackamas, we will fall to 3-4 in league play, • and OSU (currently in fifth place) has an easy match this week. If they win, they will pass us in the league standings." Clackamas defeated Lane last year 1-0. Cross Country The Titan cross country teams will compete in the OCCAA and Region 18 cham- by Terry Rhoads of the TORCH At first glance this season, Karren Harris with her fivefoot six, 135 pound stature hardly gave opponents a surge of fear in their hearts. But once her opponents stepped onto the opposite side of the court, and allowed the Lane sophomore to demonstrate her stinging variety of spikes, dinks and kill shots, they quickly got the message: Don't judge Titans by their size. With Harris controlling the Titan's power attack and teammate Angel Humphrey see The Great Films Photo by Michael Bailey providing her with accurate sets, the women's volleyball team has captured its first OCAAA league championship. It wasn't easy, but they made it look that way, sweeping to an undefeated conference mark (14-0). The Titans head for Idaho next week to play the winner of the Idaho conference to Turn to HARRIS, page 10 The women's volleyball, team, now 13-0 in conference action, won the consolation bracket by defeating Pacific Lutheran University 15-3, 15-10 and Whitman College 15-9, 15-4. The Titans were forced into the consolation bracket by losing to Pacific University and the University of Puget Sound in action Friday. The team performed well against the four-year schools and did manage to win the first game against Pacific, The men's team, currently ranked 12th in the nation, will run against the number one and two ranked teams -- College of Southern Idaho and Clackamas. If the Titans are to vie for the national title, they must beat these two strong teams. Only the first place team and the top ten individuals from the region will make the trip to the nationals. The men will race at 10:30, the women at 11:15. That 20-year retirement may still be within your grasp! Special reinlistment programs for veterans.

"Yeah, I like to hit the ball at the net," says Harris . " But you can't do that unless there's a good pass and set and we've been getting those.'' Titans finished a 23-5-4 overall season record. A major reason for the Titans' success, says their coach Ed Jacobsen, has been the dominating play of Harris: "Although she's short," says Jacobsen, " Karen is an adequate jumper, and has super hitting ability at the net.' ' If statistics can mirror a player' s ability, then Harris could find herself on the AllLeague, All-Region, and possibly All-American squad. According to the team statistics, Harris is slicing and sparkling 11-3 record. Harris, who prepped at Thurston High Scj;iool in Springfield where she was an All-District volleyball player, set for last year's team . "It was to ugh," says Harris of not making the playoffs. " We played good all season. But competition was excellent, and we just missed out." But that finish reversed itself this year as Harris took over the front line. Another big addition to the Titans' success story was Angel Humphrey, a transfer This year's success didn't develop overnight for either Harris or the team .

Humphrey's outstanding setting ability usually climaxes with Harris drilling away at the opposition. But things could have been different fo r LCC's volleyball team . When Harris and her teammate Carla Johnson were both fresh out of high school two years ago, Umpqua Community College in Roseburg had offered both athletes scholarships to play volleyball and basketball. "Carla and I were planning to go there,' ' says Harris of Umpqua. "But we couldn't find an apartment, so we came back. I'm glad we did, Eugene is a little bit livelier,'' she laughs. As for her chances of moving onto a four-year college to play volleyball, Harris' situation appears bright. Jacobsen says, "She and Carrie Davidson are the two players that major colleges have talked to us about. She can make it at that level of play because of her special talent to communicate and control the flow of the action on the court.'' Harris says she's first looking for a JV program and then to work her way onto the varsity team. "I wouldn't mind OSU or Oregon,'' she says, "but I'm only 5-6 and that's not too tall for that level of competition." Looking towards the regional and possible national battles that loom ahead, Harris is excited and says, "I don't know if I'm nervous. I've never been to a state playoff or anything like it so I know I can't wait to see it." Chances are the short but loud hitter from Lane will make quite an impact on her opponents -- once they meet her across the net.
