Schafer freezes spending
Tuition increases, salary decreases possible

by Larry Swanson
of the TORCH

LCC President Eldon
Schafer has ordered a hiring
freeze and has frozen the
school's capital outlay funds
in response to Gov. Vic
Atiyeh's recommended cuts to
the state budget.
Schafer also says the school
may face measures ''as drastic
as tuition increases and salary
decreases" if Atiyeh's recommendation is approved.
The governor, at a press
conference in Salem Nov. 27,
recommended budgeLcuts and
called for a special session of
the state legislature beginning
Jan. 11 to deal with an anticipated $250 million income
shortfall.
LCC will lose over $4
million over the next 18 months if the legislature goes along
with the governor's proposal
to slash 20 percent from the
state's budget, according to
Bill Berry, LCC's dean of administrative serivces.
Atiyeh said he won't recommend tax increases, cuts in
property tax relief or cuts in
basic (kindergarten through
grade 12) school support. And
the governor admits acceptance of this recommendation
would leave higher education
(colleges and universities) and
human services agencies to absorb most of the cuts.
However, some legislators
say cuts in all programs, including those excluded by
Atiyeh, should be considered
at the special session.
Senate President Fred
Heard, D-Klamath Falls, said
the property tax relief and
basic school support programs
might be affected by further
reductions in the budget.
Heard said across-the-board
budget cuts would jeapordize
the state's quality of life. He
added that one alternative to
reduced spending might be a

Classified union opposes
summer closure proposal
by Larry Swanson
of the TORCH

One hundred members of LCC' s classified
union at an emergency membership meeting
Nov. 24 unanimously opposed an LCC administrative proposal to close the campus next
summer.
Union members prepared a statement to be
read to the LCC Board of Education ''urging
the college to cease consideration of closure
for Summer, 1982."
The meeting was scheduled by the LCC
Employees Federation's (LCCEF) executive
board when it received a letter from Gerald
Rasmussen, dean of instruction, requesting
opinions "concerning the impact of a summer
closure."
Rasmussen, at the meeting, said the letter
was not a "panic reaction" to Gov. Vic
Atiyeh's proposed budget cuts, but was the
result of a request from LCC President Eldon
Schafer last May to study the idea.
After receiving Rasmussen's letter, the
union sent questionnaires on the projected effects of a summer closure to all union
members when it sent out the Nov. 24
emergency meeting notice.
Gail Currin, LCCEF president, said 63 percent of the questionnaires were returned
despite the fact that union members had only
two days to prepare for the meeting.

Department heads and the school's other
union representatives also received copies of
the letter. However, no departments or other
unions scheduled similar meetings.
Steve Lange, LCCEF's first vice president,
said the union scheduled the meeting to ''keep
people informed" and to gather information
on how a summer closure would affect the
LCCEF's 360 members.
LCCEF members would be hit hardest by a
summer closure, said Lange, since they are the
lowest paid workers at LCC. He also said,
unlike other employees classified personnel
work through the summer months.
"Just under one-third of our members are
under the $10,000 per year income level," said
Lange. He said it would be impossible for
union members to save enough for even a onemonth layoff next summer.
At the meeting, Rasmussen explained the
college's position. He said Schafer asked him
last May to perform a study this term on the
possible savings the school could realize by
shutting down for the summer.
"It's absolutely essential," Rasmussen
said, "for the college to answer (to the public)
the question: 'Would we save money by closing down in the summer?' ''
He said the study on a summer closure ''is
only one prong of a multi-pronged approach"
to finding ways the school can save money
and that ''no decision has been made.''

Roy Lieuallen, the state
chancellor of _ higher education, and LCC President
Eldon Schafer said alternatives would be welcomed by
the state's colleges and universities.

Schafer of the $4.2 million
-LCC could lose.
He has imposed freezes on
hiring new employees and on
the school's capital outlay
fund in response to the anticipated cuts. He said the
school will "hold all expenditures that are not essential''
until the results of the special
legislative session are in.
Though the school receives
only about 35 percent of its
operating budget •from the
state, Schafer says a 20 percent
cut could result in actions "as
drastic as tuition increases and
salary cuts.''
Other options the school
might consider, said Schafer,
include closing the school for
the summer or eliminating
some programs.
"Prioritizing programs is
inevitable,'' said Schafer. He
said because some programs
operate more effectively than
others he wouldn't predict
which programs might be
eliminated first.
At the LCC Board of
Education meeting Nov. 25,
Bill Berry projected the effects
of budget cuts ranging from 5
to 20 percent.
The bottom line, said Berry,
is that the school would lose
$1.4 million with a 5 percent
cut, $2.3 million at 10 percent,
$3.2 million at 15 percent and
$4.2 million at 20 percent.
He said these projections
were based on the assumption
that cuts would come from the
remaining one-third of the
1981-83 biennial budget.

-letter ~s----- What price ,abortion?
To the Editor:

Oct. 1, 1981
Los Angeles Abortion Clinic
We lay in our overcrowded,
understaffed rooms, conversing with one another. Some of
us got pregnant while wearing
diaphragms and IUD's, some
of us would get fired from bur
jobs or beaten by our lovers if
discovered pregnant, many of
us could not afford to feed the
kids we had now.
Nearly all of us were black
and brown MediCal recipients.
We ask ourselves, what
would we do if MediCal was
cut off? Home remedies fill
the air. Turpentine, rat
poison, kitchen utensils, all
remedies our grandmothers,
our mothers, and some of us
had used, leaving many of us
maimed, many dead.
We hear the clamor outside
the clinic. White, well-dressed
men and women march , carrying signs which read, "Every
One Has The Right To Life"
and ''To Outlaw Abortion Is
To Outlaw Murder."
Many of those marching
have neighbors who also get
abortions. But their abortions
take place in private doctor's
offices, efficiently, expensively, and most important, quietly. No signs outside, no protest.
At the clinic, the Right-To-

Lifers try to stop the women
from entering the clinic. They
preach from the Bible while
shoving . anti-abortion
literature into the women's
hands.
Some of the women entering
the clinic yell back, others do
their best to ignore them.
Some turn away from the
clinic altogether.
These turnaways are what
the Right-To-Lifers call their
"victories." These women,
along with other women
deprived of safe, legal abortions due to cutbacks in state
and federally funded abortions, are forced to find other
ways to abort their unwanted
fetuses. Some will try a particular form of "home
remedy," others will end up in
the hands of quack abortionists.
I know of such a woman.
She was found dead in her
apartment, a knitting needle in
her vagina, her bed soaked
with blood.
Senator Barry Goldwater
said in a 1981 interview, "I
don't care how many l~ws we
pass, how we amend the Constitution, if a woman wants to
get an abortion, she's going to
get an abortion."
Yes, she will, and at what a
price. A price the Right-ToLifers seem willing to pay.

Wendy: On the phone, at the helm
by Diane Davis
of the TORCH

Whether students call LCC
Security to report a fender
bender in the parking lot or to
inquire about a lost or stolen
watch, they will probably
reach Wendy West fall at the
"helm" of security operations.
She's not a security officer,
but her 13 years with LCC in a
variety of public contact positions have given her a special
vantage point in LCC's
"community." She knows
practically everyone on campus.
Wendy Westfall started with
LCC as a switch board
operator/information clerk in
May 1968 and over the years
has been "fortunate to watch
this campus grow from a pile
of bricks.''
She loved the fact that the
variety of her original position

she took that campus
"information" knowledge
with her.
''People still call me for
references, 'where do I go for

whose title gives little indication of the extent of what she
actually does.
In just two hours -- and

The most frequently committed LCC campus crime,
and the most difficult to solve
-- opportunity theft -- is committed by students themselves.
Car stereo units, books,
motorcycle helmets, purses,

calculators -- any valuable
possession not properly
secured becomes instantly attractive to someone looking
for just the right opportunity,
according to security sources.
Students must protect their
property against increasing
opportunity theft by "being
conscious of belongings,'' advises Chase. He says that
anything left lying in the open
takes only seconds to pick up.
Because people don't want
to get involved, says Chase,
theft prevention is extremely
difficult. Either there are no

She notes that some days are
spent entirely on the radio
while other days are spent with
nothing happening. "We
never know what will be on the
phone, so it's important to

adds.
Wendy's job seems routine
to her, despite the fact that
"every day is different. A lot
of people say I'm organized to
a fault; it's just easy for me to
shift gears.''
It's that unique ability to
shift gears and organize, combined with years of amassed
information, that enable Wendy Westfall to handle any
situation professionally.

Schafer cautions board
to review bui.lding plans
by Larry Swanson
of the TORCH
Despite the threat of a drastically reduced operating
budget, the LCC Board of Education, Nov. 25, unanimously
gave approval to a local architectural firm to begin the next
phase of plans for LCC's new classroom building.
But LCC President Eldon Schafer cautioned the board to
review the need for the project before accepting bids for construction of the building.
The school faces cuts in its operating budget of more than
20 percent when the Oregon Legislature meets in a special session Jan. 11.
Although funds for the 7-classroom building come from a
different source than the school's operating budget, Schafer
questioned the need for new classrooms when the school may
have to turn away students.
However, he did not rule out construction of the new
building when he said, the school's "long range plans perhaps
should not be affected by . . .a momentary recessionary
period." The school may even benefit from a competitive bidding atmosphere and "a lower cost of construction" next spring when building is slated to begin, said Schafer.
Schafer reminded board members that the intention for
proposing the new building is to "remove students and
teachers from facilities that are inadequate. The classrooms
are not being constructed for growth, but to provide more
adequate teaching space."
The board authorized Balzhiser, Longwood, Smith, Paul
and Associates to proceed to working drawings for the
7-classroom building which would be located between the
Science and Forum Buildings.
The board's next meeting will be Dec. 9 in the LCC Board
Room.

witnesses on the scene, or people who do not realize a theft
is occurring may not be willing
to stick their necks out to
make a report, says Chase.
Chase suggests some common sense preventative habits
which may act as deterrents.
He says locking cars,
eliminiating visibility by placing auto valuables inside the
car's trunk and always using a
combination lock on gym
lockers reduce accessibility
and help deter potential thiefs.
Studies comparing 1981
specific crime patterns with

the previous two years are being conducted by LCC's
security team, whose steppedup efforts include the use of 25
work-study students to patrol
the campus both night and
day.

Other campus crimes so far

Prevention varies from case to
case, but Chase says the only
long-range cure is human
kindness.

The shuttle proposal was
also discarded. "We couldn't
subsidize both the fastpass and
shuttle," said Dove. The shuttle discount would have pushed the total price of the proposals over the amount
ASLCC had budgeted for the
project.
Since the fate of the discounted fare won't be decided
until Dec. 15, Dove recommends that students contact
LTD or ASLCC offices before
buying their January fares.

of the TORCH

Liz was raped. Eight to 10
weeks later she discovered she
was pregnant. She was
15-years-old when she had an
abortion.
"It being a rape, the father
is someone you hate. It wasn't

'' I would have an illegal
abortion,'' says Liz if it were
to happen again. "It's our

right! Either way, whether you
decide to have the unwanted
child or to have an abortion,
you pay a price. We should be

Jill found out she was pregnant two months after her
boyfriend joined the Navy and
left the state for basic training.
She decided to keep the baby.
"It is part of me and the
man I care about." she says.
'' I can understand an abortion
for people who are teenagers
or who were raped but I
couldn't destroy something I
created. I felt I should take
responsibility for my actions.''
Although Jill kept her baby
she still believes that having

These women, who have
been given fictitious names,
have three choices today: Getting an abortion, giving the
baby to another family or
keeping the child.
The Human Life Amendment (HLA), if passed by the
US congress in 1982, will make
abortions a first-degree
.
murder offense.
The amendment states that
legal life begins at conception
and that the fetus is conse-

quently entitled to all legal
rights.
Abortions that will save the
life and preserve the health of
a woman will be prevented by
the amendment. And incest
and rape victims will not be
allowed to rid their bodies of
the fetus created in those acts
of violence.
In addition HLA will
outlaw any form of birth control that interferes with the implantation of a fertilized egg.
This restriction prohibits the
use of common forms of birth
control including the 1.U.D.
According to Diane Nye of
the National Abortion Rights
League
Action
(NARAL-Oregon Affiliate),
''there is reason to be quite
frightened that it (HLA) could
pass."
Mary Widoff, Planned
Parenthood's community
health educator, says if the
amendment is passed, it
wouldn't prevent abortions; it
will .only make them unsafe.
Widoff contends that the
issue goes beyond women's
rights: "Choice is a fundamental constitutional
right.'' And NARAL member
Nye says the issue ''is not proabortion, but pro-choice."
Two pro-life organizations
contacted by the TORCH, Birthright and Young Americans
for Freedom (YAF), are uninformed about the amendment
and are not involved with
political campaigns to pass it.
Member Susie Stones explains that Birthright, a nonprofit organization run completely by volunteers, is not a
politically motivated group.
Stones says the only thing
Birthright wants to do is to
''be friends to the women. We
are very pro-life. We believe
that ~ife is very precious and
special."
Y AF had even less of a
definite stand.
Chairman Jerry Payton says
the organization didn't want
to take a stand on the issue
because the national chapter

The anti-abortion supporters in Congress are divided into two disputing factions
-- the absolutists and the
gradualists.
The absolutists are demanding an immediate and total
ban on all abortions in the US.
With Sen. Jesse Helms,
R-N.C., author of HLA at the
helm, they support the idea
that life begins at conception.
The gradualists are not opposed to the contents of
Helm's bill, but they are convinced that Congress is unlikely to pass it because of its
moral nature.
To circumvent possible
defeat an alternative amendment was tactically introduced
by Sen. Orrin Hatch, R-Utah.
Experts say Congress may approve Hatch's amendment
which will allow the 50 states
to set abortion policy -- thus
superseding the original 1973
Supreme Court decision that
legalized abortion.
Another boomerang in this
already complicated affair is
that Oregon can pass a law
that is more severe than
federal law.
And Oregon legislators have
recently introduced a state
amendment with the same
contents as the HLA.
By passing the buck to the
state governments, US
gradualists will avoid the need
to jell national support for an
unpopular amendment.
NARAL Washington D.C.
lobbyist, Sue Ellen Lowry, is
worried that both Helms and
Hatch' s bill will reach the
Senate floor at the same time.
According to Lowry, politicians try to please both sides.
If they voted for the Hatch

amendment and against the
Helms bill, the vote would give
the illusion that opposing
camps gained. However, the
two sides involved in this
trade-off are categorically opposed to abortion.
It is accepted knowledge
that a politician labeled
''pro-abortionist'' is taking a
political risk. Lowry and
NARAL are out to prove that
the reverse is true.
A survey taken by a Detroitbased research firm showed
that 7 out of l O voters oppose
enactment that would outlaw
abortions. It also showed that
one-third of voters would not
elect someone whose opinion
differed from their own.
The National Organization
for Women (NOW), which opposes the HLA, says supporters of the amendment
claim to have the backing of
210 representatives and 38
senators. Also, for the first
time voters elected a president
who campaigned on a platform calling for a constitu-

..

tional amendment banning
abortion.
Nye says NARAL's motto is
to "Inform, alarm and activate." She says it's the only
way to beat the antiabortionists. It holds house
meetings to organize lobbying
efforts and conducts political
skills workshops.

The real issue is not a moral
one -- it is a constitutional one.
Constitutional in the sense
that inalienable rights are
violated.
"Our bodies; Our selves,"
has long been expressive of
women's inalienable right to
govern their bodies. Women
have the right to decide issues
that solely effect their wellbeing. For an arbitrary outside
moral force to decide the very
beginnings of life is to step into the shoes of God.

The white-clad figures moved back and forth across the
floor, their shrouded faces adding mystery to an already
mysterious form of dance, a
dance performed with foils
and footwork.
Fencing is a quick and
graceful sport, a combination
of fast thinking and skilled
swordplay. Twenty LCC P.E.
students are learning fencing
skills this term in a class taught
by Kurt Schultz.
''Fencing is more like chess
than boxing,'' says Schultz.
''Deception is more important
than physical strength."
Schultz, who has been
LCC's fencing instructor for
the last four years, has studied
under Ed Ragozzino, Performing Arts Department head
and former LCC fencing
teacher, and with Olympic
fencing coach Alex Beguinet
of Portland. He has also attended American Fencing
Association clinics to polish
his talents.
"People have a misconception about fencing," he says.
''They think that you have to
know something special, speak
French or something. You
don't really have to know
anything at all."

LCC offers only beginning
classes, which focus on simple
moves, footwork, simple attacks and defensive work.
Intermediate work would be
more involved, encompassing
compound attacks -- a series
of moves -- advanced footwork, and bout strategy. And
Schultz is hoping that someday there will be enough returning students to comprise such
an intermediate class.
He noted that only about 5
percent of his students "know
anything at all about fencing"
when they come into his class,
"and you don't have to be a
certain weight or build,
either.''
Fencers use three different
types of "weapons": The foil,
the epee, and the sabre.
Schultz's class uses only the
lighter swords -- the foil and
the epee -- since sabres are less
widely used in competition.
In competiton, fencers are
required to 'duel' for eight
minutes or five electrically
scored "touches." A sensitive
electronic device is built into
the swords to record touches
on a scoring machine. Only
one such machine exists in
Eugene, at the University of
Oregon. Schultz simply scores
matches by observation.

Schultz feels that fencing is
an exciting sport "because it's
fast and it happens in a small
area. You don't have to use
brute strength; an attack can
be moved to one side instead
of having to be pushed off."
In the US fencing has a
reputation as an "exotic"
sport. Although it has been
widely accepted in Europe as a
club sport for many years, it
has had a hard time developing a following in this country.
It ·is slowly getting off the
ground, however, and classes
like those at LCC and the U of
0 are popping up in more and
more schools across the country.
Coupled with local fencing
teams -- like the Eugene Fencing Club -- these classes "will
get us some exposure,''
Schultz says. "That's one of
our biggest problems. Nobody
knows that they can just come
out and do it.''
Schultz recommends fencing to anyone -- short, tall,
male, female -- anyone.
''There are levels of competition for everybody," he
concludes. "If you want a
good, strenuous workout and
want to develop some
eye/hand coordination, this is
the place to be.'',

Sneakers play Music from -t he Sole
by Marty Schwarzbauer
of the TORCH

Sneakers, one of the area's
most popular rock groups, is
currently in the studio putting
finishing touches on their second album.
The band went into Triad
Recording studio two weeks
ago with the intention of
recording and releasing a foursong E.P .(Extended Play
?"single). However, the sessions went so smoothly that
they had time to do twelve
songs -- enough for an entire
album. Tentatively titled
Music From The Sole, the
album is now set for release
around the first of the year.
The Sneakers' first album,
Ear Cartoons, was released on

City Lights Records a year
ago. The band has since split
with City Lights and will
release the new album qn their
own label, Sole Records.
Featured on this new album
will be the sax work of Todd
Duncan, the newest Sneaker.
Duncan joined early this year
when Cletis Carr, one of the
original members, left to pursue his own interests.
Carr assisted the group with
production of its new album,
adding piano, guitar and synthesizer parts to several cuts.
Mos.t of the twelve cuts were
co-written by lead singer Dee
Willy, guitarist Billy Rich and
bassist Johnny Zipgun. Duncan and drummer Mark Olsen
also contributed to the credits.
On record, as on stage,
Sneakers is a total group effort

Willy, who with his tousled

"the first time since we started

worked without the pressure
of the record label and without
the expertise of Roger Atkins,
who produced their first
album.
Instead, they relied on their

"We're not ones for spending
a lot of time on one song. We

other.

areas, in Hartford, Connecticut, and in Carson City,

The songs on Music From
The Sole will be, according to
Lorincz, "typical Sneakers
music'' -- power-pop songs,
generally with catchy lyrics,
easy-to-remember choruses
and short, if any, lead breaks.
The tunes, generally up-tempo
-- almost frantic -- are propelled by Olsen's powerful but
simple drum rhythms and
Zipgun's driving, booming
bass lines and are aimed at a
young, dancing audience.
Duncan's (according to Willy "we're trying to decide if
it's like in 'Duncan yo-yo' or
in 'Duncan donut' ") sax adds
a nice early 60s flavor to the
sound, and Willy's singing and
Rich's guitar lines are vintage
Sneakers.
They have seen hard times
lately that could have made
less determined players quit
and move on to other bands.
But they continue to attack
each performance, each recording session and each song
with the same exuberance that
they started with. And, now,
with Music From The Sole,
Sneakers are ready to do it all
over again -- from the sole.

Denali sponsors reception, author
by Susan Crosman
of the TORCH

Ken Babbs, a local literary
figure and author, will read
at a reception sponsored by
Denali, an LCC literature and
art student organiaztion, Friday, Dec. 4, at the Project
Space Gallery in Eugene.
Babbs will also speak at
LCC in the Forum Building;
Room 309, that afternoon at 1
p.m. The narrative will also be
accompanied by a slide presentation.
The Denali student art show
and short story contest reception will begin at 8 p.m. with a
reading from Babb's recent
publication No. 6 -- The

Cassady Issue.

At 9:00 he will present first,
second and third place awards
of $25, $15 and $10 to the win-

ners of the Denali short story
contest.

Other events at the reception will include the presentation of a $25 juror's award to
the winner of the Denali art
show. Art work submitted to
the art show will be on display
at the reception.
From 9:30 p.m. to 11 p.m.,
a local new wave band,
Pedestrian_s, will play ..
Refreshments
will
be
available. The public is invited
at a $1 charge.
Babbs is scheduled to speak
at LCC Friday afternoon to
present a reading from No. 6 -The Cassady Issue. The
publication is a collection of
works from different authors
based on the life of Neal
Cassady, fictitiously known as
Dean Moriarity in Jack

Kerouac's novel On the Road.
Ken Kesey published the new
publication.
"I'm glad to be able to bring Babbs to the LCC campus
to show students the kind of
local literary figures that
reside in our community,''
says Lee Evans, editor of
Denali magazine.
The effort to bring Babbs to
LCC was spearheaded by
Denali and funded by the the
student government, ASLCC.
Denali has been involved with
much of the footwork to
schedule visits by literary guest
speakers
on
campus.
Language Arts Department instructors, including Joyce
Salisbury, Karen Locke and
Linda Danielson, have been
working together with Denali
on efforts to bring both locally
and nationally prominent

literary figures to the LCC
campus.

Several organizations that
might be capable of matching
the funds at LCC would be
ASLCC, the Language Arts
Department
or
the
Developmental
Fund.
However, Denali and the supporting instructors in the
Language Arts Department
would still have to raise the remaining monies for the matching grant.

Funding poses problems
when attempting to schedule
major events such as a series
of lectures by prominent
poets. "That's why we may
opt to go for just local people," says Evans, "but we'd
like to be able to do both."
The funding for major
events would have to be provided by humanities or arts institutions through matching
grants. LCC would have to
match a certain portion of
money provided by the institutions in order to meet the total
cost needed for the event.

What do Wilfred's Window, Circular Confusion and

They are all exhibits of
hologram art from the
Lightscapes exhibit on display
in the Centre Court Building
on the Downtown Mall
through January 3.
A hologram is a three
dimensional image on a glass
plate. When illuminated with
light, rainbow colored images
appear to float above the glass
plate. The floating effect provides the depth dimension that
conventional two dimensional
photography lacks.
Holography uses a laser
beam in place of optical lenses
to illuminate the subject and
to impress the captured image
on a photographic plate.

The laser beam is split into
two by mirrors. One beam illuminates the subject to be
photographed. The other
beam is reflected by a mirror
to the film plate and reflected
by the film plate to the subject. The interference of these
beams impress the image on
the glass film plate.
3-D art is only one application of the holography process. Applications have been
found in the medical field for
the detection of diseases including cancer. And the television industry may revolutionize its field by marketing

T-he game relies totally on
teamwork. Players are continously on the move for two
thirty-minute periods (with no
substitutions).
Korfball is a skillful blend
of intricate offensive passes
and non-stop defensive dodging. The movement is fluid,
rhythmic and graceful.
Korfball was born in
Holland in 1903 where it is the
second largest team sport. It
has spread from its home
across Europe to Germany,
England, Belgium and Spain.
European Korfball clubs,
which encourage US involvement, sponsored the 1978
World Cup (where the US Na-

tional Team placed 5th out of
8), the 1980 Youth Korfball
Tournament in Holland and
will sponsor this year's lnvitati o nal Tournament in
Belgium. The next World Cup
is scheduled for 1983 in Germany.

needs players. Presently,
Portland State and the University of Oregon have established teams. LCC and Oregon

to attend the 2 p.m. Sunday
