Lane Community College Vol. 22, No. 16 February 18, 1982 F 4000 E. 30th Ave. Eugene, OR 97405 L "We of the lower class are going to start playing rough" Human services cuts cause outcry by Jeff Keating of the TORCH Over 75 people witnessed several fiery, emotional speeches at Harris Hall in Eugene Feb. 11 during a forum on Reagan Administration cutbacks affecting human services. Entitled "How Much Does It Hurt?" the forum gave lowincome individuals representing themselves or groups a chance to voice their opposition to cuts in welfare, child care and education programs. A six-member panel listened and spoke individually about the federal budget reductions. Moderated by Julie AspinwallLamberts, associate director of LCC' s productivity center, the panel interspersed comments on Lane County's economic situation with observations about the effects of federal cuts. " The plain fact of the matter," said local labor market economist Margaret Hallock, " is that there just aren't . enough jobs here or in the country to live." Lane County Commissioner Scott Lieuallen, another panel member, concurred: "We are in miserable economic shape. There is nothing but bad news every day.'' He also added that he had never before seen a Lane County budget as lacking as this year's and "I've never even heard of one as bad since the Great Depression.'' Pat Giles, assistant manager of regional services for Dolton Family Services, noted that even those services that have money aren't able to help the number of people that need assistance. "Funds have been drastically reduced," she said. "We can help fewer and fewer people less and less." But the crux of the evening's activity was the public point of view. An open microphone gave way to a torrent of individual outcry against federal budget cuts. "We have nowhere to go," said Coralee Washington, a local NAACP member, "We've got to help each other. Nobody else is going to help us." ,. Eugene stockbroker announces candidacy for LCC Board position Mary Unruh, a 29-year old Foster & Marshall stockbroker from Eugene, has announced her candidacy for the Zone 5 LCC Board seat to be filled March 30. Unruh, who has been a Eugene resident for three years, called a news conference Tuesday at 8:30 a.m. in Harris Hall to announce her intention to run for Les Hendrickson's vacated board post. Hendrickson, in a letter to the Eugene RegisterGuard, said he would not run for a second four-year term. He said he wants to spend more time with his family, his work and his church. Unruh was recently appointed to the LCC budget committee and has been working for foster & Marshall for the past year. She is a 1972 home economics graduate from Colorado State University with a major in textiles and clothing, and worked as an administrative assistant for Sterns-Roger, a construction engineeri.ng firm in Denver, Colo., before coming to Eugene. She cites her work experience, financial principles and educational background as qualifications for the board. She stated that she will apply her experience toward balancing the school's budget. Margaret Hallock and Corinne Poorman were panel members at Feb. 11 forum Clark Cox, a Eugene resident, echoed Washington's statement. "The syst em ._-¥is problem-laden, and people will suffer," he said, "I find myself temporarily adrift in the boat, wondering where I'm going." After drawing some raised eyebrows from the audience by identifying himself as a moderate Republican, Cox explained, "I think the government can work. But," he added, "right now the great actor in the White House had better look in a mirror and con- template his spiritual evolution." Marshall Peter, a member of the Eugene City Council's Commission on t he Han d'1capped, revealed another concern of those who need human services funds. Turn to OUTCRY, page 5 Flight Tech providing transportation Administrators 'winging it' by Scottie Bryant for the TORCH LCC's Flight Technology Program sometimes integrates service to the college staff and local communities with flight training for students, says department head Terry Hagberg. College administrators often must attend meetings hundreds of miles from campus and return immediately to stay within their schedules. By paying one half of the cost incurred for a flight, staff members may be flown to a meeting by a qualified LCC Flight Technology student using LCC aircraft. This allows administrators to remain on top of their schedules while flight students apply these 'flight hours towards the 33 hours required each term. Among those who have taken advantage of this service are Dean of Instruction Gerald Rasmussen, his assistant Larry Worford, and. Casey Fast, director of productivity. Worford has taken two flights to Seattle and finds the flight in a small aircraft "non-threatening. I was a beginning pilot once and if I couldn't scare myself, nobody else can," he says. Worford feels that while a certain amount is saved on the actual flight cost, the convenience of scheduling is the biggest advantage. The Flight Technology Department also serves other school and community areas. For example, a department aircraft was used to survey and photograph the parking area shortage at Lane this fall. Air safety seminars, cosponsored by the department and the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), are held in the Flight Technology Facilities, located at Mahlon Sweet Airport west of Eugene. The Civil Air Patrol also conducts search and rescue training in the building. ;···--I·-··-,--,·-·-·--··-····-··:::·_:_::=:=::~:~:::::;...~__:~:~~---· :.,,,_,::::::I---::• . • A union's look at collective b~rgaining is the topic If ft of this week's Forum on [@l .....·.•.•...... :!:i:ili:i:i:i:i • The Human Life Amendment. could pass a senate committee as early as • Even as the budget ax falls, winter ~er~. enrollment at LCC 1s r1smg.

The TORCH has a policy to reject Letters to the Editor that are sexist, racist or gratuitously violent. At the same time this newspaper wants the pages to be open to readers' opinions. However, many recent letters submitted have been sexist and one has been racist. A good question would be, "Where do you draw the line?" We are caught between the two contrary goals stated above. What we have chosen to do up to this point is to publish all letters we receive -- and print a disclaimer in the masthead on this page explaining that we do not edit the content of any letter submitted. Our hope is that readers will respond with their differing points of view. But when the content of a letter is illconceived, we feel we must respond. Take the one by Mark Clements published in this issue. We're sure that Clements is a nice person. We're also sure that he is, whether intentionally or not, objectifying women with comments like, "A guy may agree to try out a car, and never feel he was agreeing to buy it." How blatantly sexist can you get? A woman is like a car, something to try out. This idea says there is no shared responsibility between two people who choose to engage in intercourse. And to say that the woman controls her fertility cycles ( " ... it is her decision alone as to whether she will or will no! be ferlile on any given day . .. '1 displays an ignorance about the human anatomy, of the options of birth control devices, and again places the entire "blame" or responsibility of procreation onto the female. Last week we ran a letter by Matthew West putting down the performance of the Negro National Anthem . which was sung in the cafeteria at 8:30 each morning during the first week of February as part of LCC's celebration of Black History Month. The critic incorrectly referred to the song as Lift Every Voice and Sing. But, other than that, no names and certainly no skin color were mentioned. We had the impression someone with a guitar was singing in the back corner and, thereby, irritating West. We thought it to be an odd criticism, but we published the letter. The letter cloaked patriotic, gooey glorifications of the flag, this country and proud-to-be-an-American epithets around veiled racial slurs: " ... people of this country need to hear what our fore Fathers created and fought for to acheive freedom and independence in this country. This is the reason for our. . .National Anthem, and no song or tune is going to replace this." So who said the song was meant to? The meaning of the terms sexism and racism goes far beyond an individual or group's prejudices. These prejudices are magnified many fold when rein- forced or fueled by the force of institutions. These authors may have no idea that what they write is sexist and/ or racist. Their ideas are born and nurtured with the prejudices of society and reinforced by their schools, churches, government . bodies, clubs and workplaces, to name a few. A useful yard stick to measure the presence of these "isms" is to see if the result or essence of the argument furthers the dominance of one sex over another, or of one race over another. Deny a woman comparable pay with a man, or deny her comparable rights in a relationship and you have furthered sexism. Deny black people equal access to education or employment or deny them their rights to honor their heritage equally with white people and you have furthered racism. We will continue to print the letters we receive. Many will not match our policies exactly. We hope that reader feedback will keep these in check. -Foro01---------------- Labor relations vital to ·' Norkers ,:,,·, •• Editor's no1e: This week's forum was submitted by LCC Employees Federation President Gail Currin.

Since there has been little information in public schools regarding the history of the labor movement and the reasons for its existence, many of you have had little or no contact with the labor movements or unions. I would like to bring you my perspective in terms of public employees. And, I will use LCC as the employer and the classified employees (support staff) represented by the LCC Employees Federation as the employees. Collective bargaining is bringing two separate perspectives (LCC and the employees) together into mutual agreement on such issues as wages, hours, working conditions and EDITOR: Ron Kelley ASSOCIATE EDITOR: Larry Swanson FEATURES EDITOR: Jeff Keating INFORMATION EDITOR: Paula Case PHOTO EDITOR: Bonnie Nicholas STAFF REPORTERS: Connie Boggs, David Bowers, Vickie Crill, Susan Crosman, Diane Davis, Belinda Gomez, Terry Rhoads, Marty Schwarzbauer.

That is what primarily makes up a working agreement or a contract. The need for an agreement is to ensure the rights of the worker and the rights of management. Both sides will state what they see as their rights. And even though both sides may agree at times, there are times when both sides view the issues differently. But bargaining brings about compromises that both parties can live with, at least until they can make more changes. In 1973 collective bargaining for public employees in Oregon became a reality. This was brought about by legislation in the form of ORS 243.650 - 7.82. This law gives public employees the right to self-organize, to form, join or assist labor organizations and to bargain collectively through representatives of their own choosing. But there are definitely two sides in collective bargaining. The college is not just an employer. It is also accountable to taxpayers, partially funded by state monies and committed to the education of students. And to keep all of these things in perspective cannot be easy. Especially in light of the funding problems now facing the College, the threat felt by students and employees on the impact of these economic woes brings further complications. To be assured that the employee-employer part of the picture does not get laid aside when financial crunches arise, the Federation enters into the picture. That is our purpose. To be the voice for the employees we represent and to protect their jobs and rights. That does not mean that the College does not care about its employees. That would not be a fair or true statement. ·· 4,j - ·,,1--t-, •,.i,.j~ .,,, workers as a reward for years of service and with that comes job security. The longer you work someplace, the more valuable you become to the employer and, therefore, you should be rewarded for that service. The reward is viewed as a commitment by the employer that you will have stronger rights in terms of pro- 'At some point you will enter or re-enter the work force and may enter into the realm of collective bargaining' However, representation is · necessary to keep the employee-employer relationship in the foreground. Employees represent dollars, and when dollars are hard to get, priorities have to be made. In no way do we view ourselves as more important than any other group, including students, but we do view ourselves as equally important. The college is here as your place of learning and it is here as a work place for us. Again, two different perspectives. One key issue is Job security. Seniority is viewed by. motions, transfers, layoffs, or any reductions that must occur. It seems only fair that if seniority is regarded the same by the employer, the end result will be workers who feel appreciated and have job security. However, at times employers do not view seniority as important. It sometimes can put a fly in the ointment of their "management rights." Employees have "worker rights" and employers have "management rights" and sometimes disagreements arise. Turn to FORUM, page 3 The TORCH February 18, 1982 - ! -Letters Forked tongue To The Editor: I can restrain myself no longer. The letter by the infamous Bonnie Nicholas concerning the responsibilities of resultant pregnancies of agreed intercourse. The choice of relations, of course, lies with both parties. However, the issue of fertility lies with the lady only; it is her decision alone as to whether she will or will not be fertile on any given day. And the hapless male is without knowledge or say as to her fertility on that day. He can become an impending father at the whim of this lady. This letter in the TORCH held in the ladies domain any choice as to termination of the pregnancy. If the writer were serious as to the co-culpability of the male she would have to accede the co-responsibility and right of the male to have some legal say as to the termination of the life he created, although he may have not known or desired offspring. Where there is responsbility there must be rights and the lady gave the man the responsibility in one sentence and took the right to abort as hers alone in a later sentence. A bit of the forked tongue, aye? The ladies can't have all the rights and give the men all the responsibilities. The Bible alludes to the female being created with a craving for the male. And the truth can't be too far from that. A guy may agree to try out a · car, and never feel he was agreeing to buy it. Mark Clements Leapfrog logic To· The Editor: Not previously having read the TORCH, I noted with interest Paula Case's article, '' Anti-Abortionists Defy Right to Choose," in the December 3, 1981 edition of your paper. I read it with interest because I am the coordinator of pro-life activities for the (Catholic) Archdiocese of Portland in Oregon, and I am somewhat conversant with the Hatch-Ashbrook Amendment that Paula Case writes about. Here are few instances where I disagree with her analysis: In the article she wrote, "The Human Life Amendment (HLA), if passed by the US congress in 1982, will make abortions a first-degree murder offense." Not true. She leapfrogged quite a few years and a lot of legislative steps in writing that. The Human Life Amendment lays the legislative ground- work for the possibility of reversing the U.S. Supreme Court's decision which.permitted nationwide abortion; if not does it passed, automatically make abortion a first-degree murder offense by itself. Secondly, her article did not accurately detail the legislative path -- federal and state -- that the Human Life Amendment will have to travel. Third, none of the arguments in the analysis pointed out the rights of the other person involved in all abortions: the unborn child. Finally, toward the end of the analysis she says, ''The real issue is not a moral one -it is a constitutional one." Yet it ends up with "The tables are turned: who really are the blasphemous and presumptuous ones?'' I would say that with that last sentence she has used moral -- not legal -- terms to make a moral -- not legal -judgment. I am available for any further dialog or questions. Thank you. Rev. Bernard W. Rinehart Archdiocese/Portland Respect for life To The Editor: The following personal statement of conscience is in the to response '' Anti-abortionists defy right to choose" analysis by Paula Case, Dec. 3, 1981 TORCH issue and in the same publication, the letter to the editor from Ms. Modesitt of the Los Angeles Abortion Clinic, "What price, abortion?" Understanding the difficult passion and pain some women face in carrying a burden too heavy, the harassment and scathing remarks that advocates of these women daily face, the horrors and risks some women face in unprofessional abortions, the terrifying population explosion on this planet and our lack of resources to meet a continued dynamic propagation of humans and the blatant injustice that the "haves" always can professionally get abortions without incident and the "have nots" cannot, I, with sadness towards the suffering of such women, am not able to find any justice under the laws of our nation nor any justice in my conscience for any legal or moral sanction of abortion. As a citizen of the United States, I demand all living persons to have the right to live in freedom and integrity without incident. I demand this right for the mother, for the father and for the child. Whether the child is within the womb or not makes no difference; for if . there is any reasonable doubt as to the beginning of life in the womb, then we must, by our life-giving nature, assume the side of life over the possibility of death . . I realize this rationale to be the penultimate to impossible. Especially so, when we consider present human conditions. Nonetheless, I demand this respect for life with great belief in the ever enduting human spirit and in hope for 4 more kind tomorrow. Furthermore, I find abortion guilty of destroying the respect of mothers, denying the rightful responsibility of fathers and of thieving a beauty and love for life · in those who advocate and participate in an abortion act. I find abortion grieviously denying the need of mere children to live and love life to the fullest. • And so, how can I allow the laws of this nation to rob the very souls of so many women, men and children so easily and so casually. I, too, am guilty of abortion, if I permit this wrong to continue without my own voice crying out against this injustice. However, to my brothers and sisters who choose this way, I cannot personally condemn you nor fully comfort you than to say that I .feel pain and sadness from the event of this choice. My conscience speaks and reasons that we can endure and face our burdens as they come upon us and that in some mysterious way we are rewarded with life, happiness and peace when we accept our burdens. I believe this as I have witnessed it in my own life. Sincerely, Andrew A. Laue FORUM continued from page 2 a J 3 1, 1982 Page 3 i' 0~ the Wire Compiled by Diane Davis of the TORCH from AP wire service reports Labor opposes Reagonomics :BAL HARBOR, Fla. -- Lane Kirkland, head of the AFL-CIO, called Reagan's economic policies "Jonestown economics," that will prove disastrous to the nation. At a Feb. 16 private labor leadership meeting with Vice-President George Bush in Florida, the labor chief said the tax and spending policies will "administer koolaid to the poor and deprived." Kirkland was referring to the 1978 mass murder-suicide in Jonestown, Guyana, where hundreds of Peoples Temple cult members drank cyanide'-laced fruit punch. Bush says that the labor leaders have not given Reagan's policies a chance, and"are wrong to oppose us at every turn." But Kirkland's sharp criticism reflects . the executive council's collective decision to take a hardline stand of opposition. Celebrities speak out on foreign policy WASHINGTON, D.C.-- •Three actors publicly announced opposition to US foreign policy in El Salvador this week. Lee Grant and Ed Asner accused the US of harboring a military dictatorship in El Salvador like the Soviet Union in Poland, Grant stated. Ralph Waite, who played the father on the long running TV show The Waltons said the Reagan administration has been "lying" about events in El Salvador. PORTLAND -- Television newsman Walter Cronkite told a Portland audience that US foreign policy is on the wrong course. He urged the US to stop ignoring the aspirations of the common people in El Salvador and start helping them achieve their goals, even if that means socialism or communism. He said the US should be less belligerent towards the Soviet Union. Florida enforces gambling LARGO, Fla. -- Eight retired men in their 60s and 70s were convicted of gambling earlier this month after being arrested for playing afternoon poker in their Largo mobile home park. After a two hour surveillance, undercover sheriff's deputies arrested the elderly men and confiscated the cards and $24 pot (bets limited to 40 cents), from the nickel-and-dime game. "It's not a crackdown," says the Largo vice squad, who used shotguns to arrest eight youths also playing poker (with a $106 kitty) in a pool hall last weekend. The eight were released from jail on $50 bond and now face gambling charges. The Largo 8 are being flown to Atlantic City by a New Jersey casino, which will donate $75--the amount If management exercises its rights, the employees feel their rights have been overlooked, and if the employees exercise • their rights, the employer feels as if we are trying to tell them what to do. It is a genuine dilemma. How to keep both parties' rights protected is the heart of collective bargaining. Some issues are mandatory and some are permissive. Mandatory issues deal with wages, hours, working conditions, benefits, etc. But even something as simple as working conditions can be interpreted differently. ~:~~:~~:~:;:~: _~=:=:1 However, the disputes within the collective bargaining process are small compared to the lack of rights and lack of employee input prior to collective bargaining. You must always remember that collective bargaining is needed more by employees than employers. Employers already have been granted the authority to make decisions that affect their workers. Collective bargaining is the only way the employees can balance the scale at their workplace. So even though it is two different perspectives, employees need representation and that representation can best be served through unions. Without employee representation, our • work environments would be much like they were in the past. Collective bargaining is necessary and should be protected, and even held in regard. When we read about the problems that workers have in other countries, it becomes clear tht collective bargaining is one part of the freedom that we are all afforded by living in this country. It is just another aspect of protection. At some point in time, you will most likely enter the work force. It is to your advantage if collective bargaining is on solid ground. You as • workers will reap the benefits of collective bargaining, whether you end up on the employee side or the employer side. Collective bargaining is two perspectives. Page 4 February 18, 1982 - Fcl 1 l4, 1982 The TORCH Human Life Amendment February vote looms over Senate by Paula Case of the TORCH Planned Parenthood is concerned that the Human Life Ammendment (HLA), submitted by Sen. Orrin Hatch, R-Utah, may pass the Senate Judiciary Committee as early as Feb. 23. to ov e rturn the 19 73 Supreme Court decision that said states could not prohibit women's abortion rights. legally begins at conception, and that the fetus is consequently entitled to all legal rights . In the opinion of Planned Parenthood, this concept could and would be used to write laws that would outlaw abortion. They claim that mothers physically in danger from giving birth could not obtain abortions if the bill were passed into law. Nor could incest or rape victims legally abort fetuses. The Judiciary Committee has a membership of 18 senators, five of whom were on the subcommittee that passed the bill by a 4-0 vote. , Hatch, in a highly unusal The Hatch Amendment move, called for an imwould give both Congress mediate vote one hour after and the individual states the the subcommittee hearings constitutional means to pass ended.

This is the first organized letter-writing effort encouraging Lane County residents to oppose the recent round of anti-abortion legislation attempts. Mary Widoff, Planned Parenthood health educator, says her group "hopes that the letter-writing campaign will help inform the public and make them aware of what the issue is." She urges citizens to write their senators because "it can be real influential. They (the senators) are not going t o kno w unl ess peopl e write." Widoff says if the HLA passses the full Senate -- and then the House of Representatives -- it would be easy for Congress and the states to pass amendments making abortion a first degree murder offense.

New electrical plan to save college $4,000 by Debbie Kleppen for the TORCH Darrell Allyn, operations manager of college facilities, won approval -at the Feb. 10 Board of Education meeting for a plan to reduce annual LCC electrical costs by approximately $4,000. His plan calls for the installation of a power factor corrections capacitor, an automated device that regulates the power factor . Allyn said purchasing the capacitor is just one measure to help offset the Eugene Water and Electric Board (EWEB) scheduled rate increases. As an example of the increases' effect on the college, he noted that although LCC electrical consumption for the 1980-81 fiscal year was down 15.5 percent as compared to the 1979-80 fiscal year, the cost for that period actually increased 11. 7 percent.

The demand rate is now regulated between 4,000 and 4,400 kilowatts. Last November, however, the computer was malfunctioning and the demand rate increased to 5,400 kilowatts. -More L e t t e r s - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Blind politics To The Editor: In eight paragraphs (TORCH, Jan. 29), Ron Munion demonstrated several ways to be blind about El Salvador. I'd like to address four of them. • He assumes that because the conflict is military, it isn't political. This notion is contrary to El Salvador's history. The bloody suppression of serious parliamentary opposition has forced most reform groups to take up arms or to give up. • Munion states that ''we,' all have a common interest in El Salvador. Thus, he writes of El Salvador's importance "for us" and the protection of "our security."

Several national unions have opposed US aid to El Salvador and the national AFL-CIO's policies there. These unions with major affiliates in Lane County include the Service Employee's International Union; American Federation of State, County, and Municipal Employees; International Association of Machinists; International Woodworkers of America; and International Longersh or em en's and Warehousemen's Union. 2787 Olympic Blvd. I Springfield 1 I 747-2340 I I IBM Specialists I I All BRANDS repaired I I On Sept. 17, 1981, the I offer expires 2 / 28 / 82 1 Oregon State Federation of 1 2045 Franklin Blvd .

Rather, the corporate interests like Texas Instruments operate tax-free and pay 50 cents an hour wages in San Salvador for work paying more than $4 per hour in the US. And US bankers and corporate owners face stiff economic competition from Japan, Western Europe and the Soviet Union throughout the Carribean basin.. a----•clip - - - - 1 Labor became the first state AFL-CIO body to oppose aid to El Salvador. from worldwide sources, including the US. • Munion observes that "the guerrillas are defeated time and time again, but the foreign help enables them to regroup, rearm, and launch new assaults elsewhere.'' He mistakes the protracted course of guerrilla warfare. Instead of being defeated, the rebels are using a strategy of people's war to gain increasing control over their country. Second, the military forces of El Salvador can't be viewed accurately as only a domestic entity. These forces receive large amounts of aid and training from the US govern, ment -- vastly more than the rebels receive from outside El Salvador. In addition, the right-wing military governments of Guatemala, Honduras, Argentina and Chile aid the junta with money, advisors and joint-military operations. • Former Ambassador to El Salvador Robert White observed, "Even if it were not for Cuba and the Soviet Union, we'd have a revolution here." Munion claims "the armed forces of the Salvadoran government would be folly capable of defeating the guerrillas if not for the help they receive from the ·Soviet Union and Cuba • through Nicaragua." He gives no proof and his claim is based on misconception. First, it isn't just the Soviet bloc that aids the rebels. The governments of Mexico, France and West Germany have given significant political support. So have some members of the US Congress. And financial help originates A key question is not just Soviet help -- but Soviet control. Munion ignores the fact that the Marxist-Leninist rebels in El Salvador developed in opposition to the Moscow-oriented communists in El Salvador. Most rebel leaders are strongly •. against Soviet domination. •What drives the rebels to seek aid from the Soviet bloc and elsewhere is massive US support .for the military dictatorship there. The Reagan administration uses Soviet involvement as an excuse to send even more aid to El Salvador. But that's all it is -- an excuse. I, for one, am not about to fall for it.

More students are attending LCC full-time, and class sizes are larger this term. In the past, says Marshall, part-time registration increased at a higher rate than fullti me registration. But a fourth-week winter term analysis, comparing figures to the same week last year, shows the full-time student "head count" up 313, from 4812 to ·5125; and part-time "head count" down 108, from 2735 to 263 7. The analysis also shows that evening class enrollment is down 115, from 1046 to 931, putting the burden of the increase on day classes. And there has been no significant increase in the drop-out rate for the growing population. Marshall says the additional students did not flood the registration session last December. But when the class registration board turns red with closed class markers, everything slows down. And later, in the first week of classes, some students add or drop classes, trying to mend their schedules. That may be why part-time registration is off, says Marshall. Part-time students are more likely than full-time students to look at closed classes and walk out the door. Will the increased full-time registration trend at LCC continue? "Yes, for sure," predicts Marshall. And he expects LCC students will have fewer problems than students registering at other community colleges in Oregon. Marshall says five colleges have proposed reducing or freezing budgets; nine have proposed lay-offs, hiring freezes or not filling faculty vacancies; nine have proposed tuition increases ranging from 7 percent to 26 percent; eight have proposed reductions in course offerings, classes or programs; and four have proposed stopping or reducing spending on equipment. Normally, registration goes up during recessionary times, but that holds true only while students have money, says Marshall. In a two-income family, for instance, if one student loses a job, he or she is likely to go to school for retraining while the other works, says Mitchell. Furthermore, laid-off office workers from public agencies are very likely to retrain for private sector office work. Enrollment in business classes has increased at a greater than usual rate. According to a fourth-week analysis which compares figures with the same week last year, the full-time equivalent (a term of measurement that translates student population into units of 15 credits per term) has risen in business by 29.5, from 271.3 to 300.8; in data processing by 22.1, from 46. 7 to 68.8; and in mathematics by 19.5, from 190.8 to 210.3 But the course offerings at LCC remain the same -- for a reason. Every time the college increases the number of courses offered for a given population, it decreases the number of students in any given class. And that increases costs, says LCC Curriculum Specialist Mildred Holly. "We're not developing many , new courses," she says. "As student population increases, classes will probably become more crowded. We already have the basic courses on deck." Holly's records show that in October, November and January of the 1980-81 school year, 18 new courses and 1 new option were approved. But for the same months of the 1981-82 school year only 11 new courses were approved. The money from increased full-time registration will probably go towards maintaining fixed costs such as teacher salaries rather than towards opening new classes, says Marshall. $833,000 sliced from 1981-82 budget Budget cutting woes affecting SWOCC, too by Michael Sims for the TORCH Southwestern Oregon Community College (SWOCC) has been forced to trim its 1981-82 operating budget by $833,000 as a result of Oregon's economic woes. SWOCC, with an estimated enrollment of 10,500 (roughly one-third that of LCC), is located in Coos Bay, a logging town bearing the full brunt of the current downturn in Oregon's timber industry. The economy of the Coos Bay-North Bend area relies heavily on the processing and export of wood products. According to Jim Love, administrative assistant to SWOCC president Jack Brookins, one area greatly affected by last fall's budget cuts was the school's outreach program in communities outside of the Coos BayNorth Bend area. Of some 300 classes cut from the SWOCC curriculum last fall, a vast majority were "adult enrichment" courses offered at SWOCC satellite centers in Bandon, Coquille, Reedsport and other neighboring localities. On-campus instruction in German and journalism were also dropped from the 1981-82 budget. And the student newspaper has shifted from weekly to bi-weekly publication. The massive budget cuts at SWOCC have meant a "change of hats" for many administrators and faculty members. Many have volunteered to take on academic advising in addition to their official and classroom teaching duties. The additional advising respon- OUTCRY continued from page I "There is a real concern that federal monies aren't spent on buildings and highways and are spent on human needs,'' he said. He also added that a "cooperative spirit" between state and county agencies is a must if any human services are to weather the federal budgetslashing storm. Each speaker's comments were recorded as testimony concerning human services cuts and were compiled into a document to be sent to federal and state agencies. Audienc,~ members were also encouraged to submit written testimonies if they were suffering from cutback woes. The panel was also questioned by a three-member media board which included Barbara Matt of KV AL-TV, Maggie O'Grady of KLCC and Ken Doctor of the Willamette Valley Observer. The media group initiated discussion regarding "New Federalism" and tighter controls on federal monies given into state hands. They also touched a nerve when the issue of volunteers arose. Many human service agencies rely on volunteer help as a primary staff source, and the need for volunteers has drastically increased since federal and state budget cuts went into effect. Speakers representing groups ranging from Lane Family Day Care to Lane County Mental Health stressed that, although volunteers are important, they cannot replace trained staffs. They also urged a state reevaluation of the present condition of human services staffs statewide. The forum was broadcast live over KLCC, and the panel fielded questions from radio audience members and sibility, according to Love, has worked • out well. Administrators and faculty also gave up half of a scheduled 1981-82 pay raise so that SWOCC could afford to hire some additional part-time instructors. As a result, Love says, '' In our remaining departments we're programming as many classes as in 80-81 . '' But the SWOCC athletic program was dealt a major financial blow by elimination of funding for men's and women's cross country and track, women's basketball, men's wrestling and men's and women's tennis. Yet, with the exception of tennis, the Lakers have and will field teams in all sports this year. "We've been operating these sports on a volunteer coaching basis, and it's turning out real well," says Love. presented possible solutions for both those affected by human services reductions and for beleaguered Lane County in general. "We need to work in a coalition,'' said panel member Janet Hawkins, Special Projects Coordinator for Kids & Kin/Headstart. "We need to write our legislators because all they hear is special interests. Lower income people have input and need to be heard." He also observed that SWOCC's student government remained, by and large, untouched by the budget crisis. What does the future hold financially for SWOCC? "We're facing the same problem next fall," says Love. "It's not over yet." State support for community colleges is one item which may fall victim to the Legislature's budget-cutting axe, and SWOCC is planning its 1982-83 budget based on a five percent cut by the Legislature, according to Love. A salary freeze for all but classified staff members has been proposed, but otherwise, Love hopes for a 1982-83 budget on par with that of the last school year. "We won't be sure about next year until the special session is over,'' he concluded.

Zack is Claire's husband, a sensitive and caring physician fresh out of residency and new to private medical practice. Zack and Claire are very much in love, even after eight years of marriage. But their almost picture-perfect relationship takes a turn for the worse: Zack has fallen in love with someone else, and from his actions, Claire thinks it's another woman. It isn't. Making Love, a new film from Twentieth-Century Fox, is a daring attempt at making a controversial subject palatable to the general public. Homosexuality has attached to it a stigma greater than almost any other supposedly "taboo" topic in today's society. Even in theoretically liberal circles, homosexuality is rarely discussed or debated without some degree of selfconsciousness or unease. Making Love handles this subject realistically, honestly and without platitudes or judgmental cinematic statements. It seems Zack discovers his homosexuality almost by accident. Even he isn't entirely sure: "I don't know if it's something new, or if it's always been there, or what," he tells Claire. "I only know it is.'' Feeling betrayed and unwanted, both as a woman and as a companion, Claire has difficulty accepting the facts. She wonders where she went wrong, and turns everywhere she can for solace. But eventually she turns to the only person who can help -- herself. Adding to Claire and Zack's conflict is the third character in their drama, Burt, a gay writer with a fear of permanent relationships and a resulting penchant for onenight stands. He's Zack's Sculpture display nixed CAMBRIDGE, Mass. (CPS) -- For the second time in three years, a college has refused to display the work of "the most significant American sculptor alive today." In the most recent incident, Harvard has refused work by sculptor George Segal, whose sculpture is valued at several hundred thousand dollars. Though Harvard officials have yet to explain their rejection of the sculpture, which was earlier turned down by New York Mayor Ed Koch, others charge the work's subject -- "Gay Liberation" -made Harvard worry about the "effect on alumni funding and other things." In 1979 Kent State University rejected a Segal sculpture commemorating the four students killed there during the protest against the American invasion of Cambodia in 1970. The sculpture depicted a man holding a knife to a kneeling youth in an approximation of the biblical story of Abraham and Issac. University officials said the work, also valued in excess of $100,000 1 was "inappropriate" for display on campus. Princeton University eventually took the Kent State sculpture. Both the Kent State and "Gay Liberation" pieces were commissioned by the Mildred Andrews Fund, a philanthropic sponsor of art projects. The fund tried to give ''Gay Liberation," which consists of two men and two women conversing in front of two park benches, to New York, but the art's theme attracted an enormous amount of controversy. Koch said he was delaying accepting the sculpture for "five to ten years" while the community opposition dissipated. The fund then offered the work to Harvard. "Harvard never formally refused the gift," says Peter Putnam, spokesman for the Andrews Fund, "but it was very clear they didn't want it. I think it's obviously the controversial nature of the work." Harvard's delay in responding prompted the Fund to withdraw the offer last rponth. "It's " pretty clear ·that politics played a role,'' says J. French Hall, president of the Harvard Gay Students Association. "It certainly can't be because he's (Segal) not a well-known sculptor." Putnam agrees, calling Segal -- who could not be reached for comment ''probably the most significant American sculptor alive today." Putnam says the sculpture will be "held in orbit until we find a place to place it." A cast of the work will be donated to the city of San Francisco later this year, he adds. lover and friend, but won't live in a world that must be shared with another. Saying that Making Love is, essentially, a film with three happy endings doesn't give the story away: The crux of this work is not the three resolutions, but how they come about. Director Arthur Hiller has crafted a well-paced, wellacted movie. Not only does he handle a difficult subject -complete with lovemaking scenes -- in a strong and convincing fashion, but he also employs effective cinematic • artistry. From the opening moments -- Claire and Burt speaking of Zack from two different points of view, individually framed by a soft white background that reveals every wrinkle in their faces -- to the closing narrations by the same pair, Making Love uses film at its finest to capture the emotions. Michael Ontkean (TV's The Rookies and Slapshot with , Paul Newman) gives a compelling performance as Zack. He is at once torn and troubled, and also strong and certain. It is his mind that offers the only possible solution to his dilemma, and his mind is inaccesible, frequently even to him. Equally laudable are Kate Jackson and Harry Hamlin. Jackson, who's only real claims to fame are Charlie's A nge/s, The Rookies and some bad TV movies, is an excellent actress who finally gets an opportunity to show it. Claire evokes so much emotion that her tears trigger like reactions from the audience, her puzzlement and anger the same responses. Hamlin, who gave an excellent performance in I 979's Studs Lanigan on television, is an enigma as Burt. Hateful of his father -- "I didn't get to tell the old man that his 'All-American' son was gay before he died'' -- and loving of his craft, Burt is an emotional paradox, never sure of what he's feeling. These three are real people dealing with something real and immediate. From the com pa ri son-and-contrast scenes in the movie -- Claire and Zack's night out at a western hangout as a prelude to Bert's cruising at a gay bar -- to the frank confrontation between husband and wife, Making Love is nothing if not realistic. And this film's message isn't simply for those people going through a similar experience. It's not an accusing finger pointing, or a voice saying "this you must do." It does say that perhaps the hardest thing about love is knowing that love itself is not always enough. Making Love says that's all • right. "" I Project Space honors art by Robert Smith for the TORCH When Project Space completed the exhibit "Outside & Inside" last week -- featuring the oil creations on masonite by Janet O'Doherty and a mixed media presentation by Mike E. Walsh --it was the 25th show since the gallery's opening in 1980. And this week's show -photo collages by Carol Westlake and Light Sculptures by Frank Fox -continues the regular series booked through June at the Qld but spacious building on East 10th Street. LCC art instructor Harold Hoy originally developed Project Space in a cooperative effort with other artists to provide more exhibit opportunities for artists in Lane County. He now has 11 fellow art enthusiasts to keep the exhibit hall operating. Although the gallery has no ties to the LCC Art Department, since its openning on Halloween of 1980, several LCC artists have displayed their art at Project Space with other area creators. A non-profit organization partly funded by the 12 members, it also receives money from grants and from renting space to other groups for dances and poetry readings. The City of Eugene owns the building at 39 E. 10th St. and recently completed negotiations with the artist group for a new lease. Members do not foresee any problems keeping the facility open. Many of the 12 members display their artwork at the gallery, and each shares in the gallery's operation. Each takes turns, for example, at '' gallery sitting'' to supervise the exhibits, provide security, and give the public a chance to meet with the creators of the art work on display.

And that's what a lot of Titan opponents this season must be thinking. The Lane duo has become the brightest spot in a rather disappointing season for the Titans. A lack of height on the front line mixed in with seasonending injuries to two probable starters early in the year has resulted in a 4-8 league record and 4-13 overall mark for Lane. But thanks to the excellent play of Allen and Bredesen the season has been saved from complete ruin. Improvement has become the goal, and if the season was to start today, things just might be a little different up at the top of the OCCAA league standings, say the Titans. But that isn't the story. What has been is the clone-like play of Allen and Bredesen But let the two 5'7" players' statistics tell the story. Allen, a sophomore, leads the squad in scoring, averaging 12.2 points per game. Bredesen, a freshman, isn't far behind at 11.5 Both are averaging four rebounds, two assists, and three turnovers a game. If there is a difference, Allen is shooting 57 percent from the field compared to Bredesen's 43 percent, but the latter is making five steals to Allen's "only" three per game. ''They play so well together,'' says Lane Coach Sue Thompson. ''They're the best fast break combination I've ever had." And what a fastbreak combination. Without the height to collect rebounds and throw outlet passes, the key to the Titan's attack has been a hounding defense mixed with a lot of full-court pressure. The results have been many turnovers, and that's when the "Allen an_d Bredesen" show starts. When one steals the ball, then wheels it down court with her outstanding speed, the other works into an open position, looks for the pass, takes it and scores. ''They're uncanny about finding each other on the break,'' lauds Thompson. "They're both very fast, and many of their assists have been to each other.'' attitude, and intelligence of the game," says Thompson. "Both can also ·shoot from as far out as the 20-foot range." If they've got a handicap, the coach says it might be their height. ''If I could do anything,'' says Thompson, "I'd give them a couple of inches. But then they've been playing taller than their height all season.'' How the pair found themselves on the Lane· campus is one of their few differences. For Allen, Lane was her last choice. For Bredesen it was number one. Both had outstanding prep careers. Allen collected allleague honors four year~ in volleyball, basketball and track at Gilchrist High School. Bredeson was no slouch herself, being All-State in soccer, track (mile relay and 1500-meters) and first-team all-district in basketball at South Eugene High School.

Although Lane lost, Allen's 29 points ·were a big highlight for her and the team and something she'll never forget. "That's kinda funny," says Allen about the Umpqua game. "It's a joke on the team to remember that whenever we play them" Bredesen was headed to Lane all the way out of high school. In fact, she attended summer school classes in chemistry and math to get a head start. I really like Sue and the school,'' says Bredesen, who plans to stay for next season though she might have to turn down a few colleges. "She's an excellent coach and I think she can help make me a good basketball player." As for each other, Allen and Bredesen have only compliments. "We complement each other on the court," says Allen. "Where I might be a little weak, Dawn isn't, and it's the same for her." Good friends off the court as well as on, both players are taking the disappointments of the win-loss column in stride. "I'm disappointed in the record, but not in our progress," says Bredesen. "We're a lot better than our record shows." Just like these two guards are a lot tougher than they might look. Just ask anybody in the OCCAA.
