Hank Douda, LCC's director of employee relations, says that the women's pay is comparable to men's pay for similar work when the' HSC salary schedule is used to make comparisons. However, he claims that the women are comparing their wages with the wages earned by male employees who are is reluctant to comment on the · particulars of that suit because he does not know what became of it: "It may be viable and it may not.

He says the issues were different, ''but the same facts pertain." full-time contracted faculty members. This involves the use of another salary schedule -- the full-time credit salary schedule.

LCC's curriculum committee voted 4 to I at their April 27 meeting to add six lower division Military Science courses beginning next fall term. Their decision will ·be acted upon by the LCC Board of Education May 12. The classes would, if approved by the board, be offered through the Social Science department and taught by ROTC instructors from the University of Oregon using LCC classrooms. The ROTC proposal has raised questions from Mass Communication instructor Jack Robert as to the academic merit and need for an ROTC program at LCC. He cast the lone vote against the course offerings. "I don't want to get into a discussion of the old 60s antimilitarism nature," he says, "but I think the appropriateness of these programs for Lane with regard to their educational merit, com- • Women Take Back The Night plans a successful return to Eugene streets.

"If there is a demonstrated student interest then fine -- bring these classes to Lane.'' According to Robert and Assistant Dean of Instruction Joyce Hopps, student interest in ROTC at Lane was not determined prior to the curriculum committee's discussion and vote. Hopps, however, believes a resurgence of student interest in the military as a career option is taking place: "I've noticed many indications that young people are looking more and more at the military as a way ·to fulfill their ambitions." Robert counters, "I don't think everybody with interest in this matter has had a chance to be heard." He requested an opportunity to explain his dissenting vote before the LCC Board May 12. But when he asked to be placed on the agenda, Robert claims that LCC President Eldon Schafer tried to dissuade Robert from discussing the issue at that time. Schafer said it would be inappropriate.

Up to now, our hero (played by Ronald Reagan) has seemed to be a cold-hearted,-warmonger whose goals are to soak the poor and destroy the environment in order to enrich his wealthy circle of cronies. But now the real Ronald Reagan is slowly revealed. First, we have a flashback to the morning after his ipa uguration.

Listen to this speech I'm fdffi/f -Letters-------------Mental health To The Editor: My sincere gratitude goes out to Susan Crosman for writing the recent series of excellent articles on mental illness. The first story, February 4, concerned my own personal bout with this dreaded illness. Susan, working closely with me, created an accurate and sensitive story. I'd also- like to extend a special "thank you" to Pete Peterson, who, after hearing my speech on mental illness in his class last term, proposed the articles be written, then set things in motion. I'm happy to say that from these articles, and the one in the Register Guard (March 23), I have received a lot of positive feedback, with very little flak. This offers me, and others concerned for this cause, additional encouragement aµd hope in our struggle. I'd like to mention a new statewide organization, Oregon Alliance of Advocates for the Mentally Ill (OAAMI), which was born in Eugene on January 23. The organization's primary goals are: to work toward eradication of the effects of mental illness by promoting research, effective legislation and funding, and by eliminating the stigma of mental illness. If you're interested and willing to give of your time and talents to further this growing, worthwhile cause, please call Nancy at 345-1656, or Layton at 746-6667 for more information.

In closing, I truly believe if I had been told before my breakdown what I've learned since my illness would never have occurred. A supporter of preventive medicine, I am convinced that some simple, common-sense ploys could've averted four painful years for me. For instance, such tactics as: I) Maintaining a good nutritious diet; 2) 7-8 hours sleep each night; 3) D~aling with my stresses by regular aerobic exercise, practicing assertiveness, and leaning more on a healthy crutch, which is the Lord for me. Of course, I realize these are not the, total answers for every case of mental illness - that each individual is different but I would hope important aspects to consider. Regardless of who the victim of mental illness is, I'd like to think that we who are sane should at least always offer that person hope. I believe that with hope comes healing.

Since then, Take Back the Night marches have been appearing all over the country, in places like Washington D.C., New York City and Missoula, Montana, says Evalyn Anderton, an organizer of Eugene's third Take Back the Night march May 8. "I think we're going to have Staff photo a really good turnout,'' says Anderton. "We sent letters out to women's organizations all over the state." The march will protest sexual violence against women in conjunction with similar marches on the same evening in Roseburg and Salem, says Anderton. According to the leaflet, 46 reported rapes occurred in Eugene and 29 reported rapes occurred in Springfield during 1981. Those reports included the rape of a six-month-old girl and an 86-year-old woman, continues the leaflet. Furthermore, the pamphlet •cites 1980 FBI estimates showing that reported rapes repre- sent only five to ten percent of actual occurrences. It states that one out of every three women living in the United States will be raped in their lifetime. ''We believe that most men are as horrified as we are by sexual violence. But every man benefits from the existence of sexual violence ... some are aggressors and some are protectors," reads the leaflet. ''PLEASE FIGHT WITH US." Anderton encourages men to participate in a number of workshops preceding the march at Harris Hall on 8th and Oak Streets. The workshop schedule begins at 10 a.m. and includes sessions on awareness and prevention of rape, feminist erotica, psychiatric oppression of women, self defense, a men's panel on violence against women, and more. Following the workshops, organizers will hold a 7:30 p.m. rally at Harris Hall and a candlelight march at 8 p.m. The march wil proceed from Harris Hall to Charnelton Street on 8th Street, down Charnelton to 13th Street to the University area, and return to Harris Hall on 11th. The march itself symbolizes women's ability to go out at night without male escort, explains Anderton. But she invites men to stand along the sides in support. (She adds that a group of about forty male supporters held candles at the edge of the fall 1980 march.) After the march, there will be a 10 p.m. rock and roll dance at the Wesley Center, 12th and Kincaid Streets. Admission will be charged on a sliding scale. For more information, call Anderton at 344-5273. Kay Boyle comes to Eugene Noted expatriate to speak Kay Boyle of San Francisco, a noted author and contributor to the American expatriate movement of the 20s and 30s, will be speaking in Eugene May 9. Following publication of two books of short stories in Europe in 1929 and 1930, Boyle's work began appearing regularly and frequently in American magazines. The Friends of the University of Oregon Library have invited her to speak at their annual meeting and brunch at the Eugene Conference Center, 7th and Oak Streets. The event is open to the public. By 1941, her stories had won two 0. Henry first-place awards, plus three additional appearances in the O. Henry annual anthologies. She also received a Guggenheim fellowship in 1934. Boyle lived in France from 1923 to 1940, becoming a master of the short story. She was a member of the "Revolution of the Word" movement, a group of writers whose work appeared in Eugene Jolas's Transition magazine. Boyle's rirst four novels, published in the 30s, were the by "Plagued Nightingale," "Year Before Last," "Gentlemen, I Address You Privately" and "My Next Bride.'' They explore her experiences in the 20s as a newly married, young American woman thrust into the culture of her French husband's family. . The publication in 1951 of her last book, ''The Smoking Mountain Stories of Postwar Germany," was followed by accusations of communist sympathies during the McCarthy er~. In all her novels, Boyle reexamined fact through fictionalization. She has said that her writing is -- and always has been -- "political." She was writer-in-residence Eastern at recently Washington University, Cheney, and has been given readings in several Western cities.

Unemployment is at a high of 14 percent. And finding a job in the area is becoming a near impossibilty. In the midst of this economic upheaval Hoedads, a Eugene based treeplanting cooperative, offers a possible "long career in forest service,'' says company officer Janice Burton. It may be the type of work opportunity suitable for an unemployed LCC student. Hoedads is a workerowned, worker-controlled forestry business. The cooperative is legally defined as a small business (500 or fewer employees and grossing under $2 million annually). This status allows it to bid for government forest contracts which supply the bulk of its work. The co-op primarily works treeplanting contracts, but its work ranges into other forestry areas including trailwork, conepicking, timber stand exams, thinning, stocking surveys, firefighting, fence building and watershed rehabilitation. Membership_ stands at about 200, 50 percent men and 50 percent women. · By 1977 the co-op was grossing more than $1 million annually and planting more than 15 million trees per year. They now gross nearly $2 million per year. Burton says "stewardship: The whole concept of longterm relations," is the word that best describes the atmosphere of the co-op. She says that when people become members, Hoedads involves every aspect of their lives -social, political, cultural and working. Semi-autonomous crews make up Hoedads. The Council (governing body). of Hoedads as well as the colorfully painted ''crummies'' (large vehicles that usually have odd nicknames like "dumbo" or "tsunami"). The crummy at times serves as a home away from home. It offers solace from bullet rainstorms and a gathering place for wet, muddy lunches. they join Some members live in a Hoedad version of the yurt -an areodynamic dwelling structure used for centuries by Mongolian nomadic tribes.

The general membership elects officers and makes major coop decisions at quarterly general meetings. Hoedads' work is labor intensive and seasonal. Planting contracts begin in the fall, extend through the winter and pick up in the spring. Summer planting isn't possible because dry conditions prevent seedling survival. Walking into the Hoedads office is not the typical experience for a job-seeker. No boss will greet the prospective employee. In fact, no one in the office is authorized to hire. In fact, no one is hired period -- employees join. Each crew maintains its crew membership, a function which is autonomous from the MOM central workings of the company. The central office aids the crews in their membership drives by providing jobseekers with information about each crew. Hoedads has a $2,000 membership fee that is subtracted from the member's gross pay at an 8 percent rate. Administrative expenses are also taken out at a rate of 9 to 13 percent. In addition, each crew takes out a percentage to cover crew expenses.

Page 5 New student-built compute·r to present unique programming by Paul Hansen of the TORCH KLCC is broadcasting its own television news show every Tuesday and Thursday at 3:15 on Cable 24. The student-run program covers local and LCC news -- including its own on-the-scene (location) reporting. The show has been a part of LCC's mass communication program for the past 10 or 11 years, says Mike Hopkinson, T. V. news instructor. Nearly 30 students are involved with the project from two classes: News and Public Affairs and media production. The news students handle the writing for the show and the production class deals with the technical apsects. Is the program a success? "Oh yes, definitely," says Hopkinson. "Most students think it's the best thing they've had. They get the experience of working under tight deadlines and a realistic work situation." Joe Rawlings, an Electronics Department instructor, has an unusual problem in today's job market: "The trouble I have is keeping my students in school until they graduate becaus-e most of them are hired before they finish." Then, he says, they leave town. His statements came prior to a presentation by electronics students of their selfmade digital computer named Elsie, and the mock corporation in the Electronics Department which produced it. Rawlings says the "company" is one reason why electronics students find jobs in an otherwise tight job market. Rawlings founded the "business" three years ago to provide students with on-thejob training in a company since OJT just wasn't • available anywhere in Eugene or Springfield. He made himself the Chief Executive Officer. All other positions are to get that known." held by students. The Elsie organizational chart includes departments of finance, personnel, procurement, a chief engineer, and an advanced system officer, among others. ''The sudents are the lifeblood and the backbone of this company," he says. ''When students leave here they go to Hewlett-Packard or Chief Engineer of the Elsie Corporation, student Larry Davidson, describes Elsie as a ''Cooperative work experience.'' And he says the second year students actively recruit first-year students for the company. Davidson compares Elsie, "The students are the lifeblood and the backbone of this company" Tektronics, wherever there is the computer the student, workers· assembled this year, an electronics industry.''

We've just got May 12 meeting. Health Fair involves community, too by Jeff Keating of the TORCH This year's version of the Student Health Fair, entitled "Spring Into Health," is an opportunity for campus and community to become involved with health fields, says Vicky Glenzer, health educator. ''The purpose of the Fair is the same as it's always been: stimulate learn-ing about health in a fun manner,'' she says. "We're trying to build community support for one of LCC's biggest programs.'' The eighth annual fair, which will be held May 12 in the LCC gym foyer, features a wide variety of activities, including live entertainment in the form of two jazz bands, a puppet show about disabilities and music with Bart and Virginia. "We're trying to get the community involved, and we've gotten a lot of support from groups all over the area," says Julie Snider, another health educator. ''The idea behind the whole thing is to make an event that -is appealing to a lot of people -that's why we have the music and other non-health types of activity." The Health Fair includes more conventional forms of health information, too. A list of the activities includes: • Biorhythm charts made • American Cancer Society Booth ALL FOR ONLY $5. 00 f'rench Braiding styled individually and a FACIAL if you like • • • • • • Stress tests Health screening Nutrition Analysis Health Center information Wheelchair relay Massage clinic Clowns and jugglers will also thread their way through the fair as another form of entertainment a bit off health's beaten path. Admission is free. "We're hoping that through the fair and the civic involvement, we'll get a lot of individual response about our ::==.., . program," says Glenzer. She adds that the fair serves a double purpose. "It gives the community a chance to get involved, but it also allows students in the health fields a chance to use what they've learned.'' The fair organizers' only obstacles thus far have been "a lack of the best electricity arrangements," according to Glenzer, but otherwise the fair is running smoothly. "We're getting a lot of enthusiasm and support," says Snider. ) A Great place for DANCES, PARTIES, & PICNICS $200 per night, no additional charges Can comfortably accomodate , up to 300 people - For appointment, 484-5068 All proceeds from this FUNDRAISER will go to I.S.E.

After dropping two of their first three matches late in April, the Titan netters came on strong and completed a 5-2 OCCAA league record. "It's been a funny season," said tennis coach Don Wilson earlier this week. "We knew we'd be a good team, but we didn't show it at first. Things are starting to pick up though, and I think we'll be ready this weekend." Wilson says this weekend is the best time because the Titans travel to Chemeketa for the OCCAA league championships. The Chiefs and Mt. Hood were the two league opponents which pinned defeats on the Titans and they will be the biggest hurdles for LCC. ''They're the favorites no doubt about it,'' said Wilson. "But with an upset or two, we could be right there with them.'' Chemeketa pinned a 7-1 defeat on Lane a month ago while Mt. Hood slipped by the Titans 6-3 two weeks ago. "The Mt. Hood loss was really tough. A couple of players lost a chance to get a better seed (position) at state (OCCAA championship),'' said Wilson. Nevertheless, LCC won't To l seems tennis was no team a The1 three t of acai travel to Salem without a chance for placing among the top.

Janet Beaudry Women play wel I despite hardships To Don Wilson, LCC tennis coach, it seems that it's always hard to find women tennis players for a team. And this season was no exception, as he finally put together a team after a long search. Then he had to stand by and watch as three top players were forced to quit because of academic and financial conflicts. The result was a less than great year for the women netters as they won only two matches while losing seven. '' I think the girls did have a good year,'' says Wilson. "They didn't win a lot of team matches, but each player had a point during the season when I think they felt they played very good." In the OCCAA and Region 18 champion- . ships last week, only Kim Merlau advanced past the opening round, finally losing in the fourth singles semi-finals. LCC baseball coach Bob Foster didn't have to speak on the afternoon of April 29. The look on his face explained the situation completely. His Titans had just split a doubleheader with visiting Linn-Benton. But they needed a sweep to stay alive-in the OCCAA playoff race, and after the seventh-ranked Roadrunners won the second game, Foster realized his team's playoff hopes were dead. It was only a month ago that Foster and the Titans pronounced a run for the OCCAA title. They knew then that their two biggest hurdles would be Linn-Benton and 13th-ranked Umpqua (Roseburg). What they didn 't count on were defeats from the rest of the OCCAA. And now LCC's race is for third place against Mt. Hood. Where did the Titans fall off the track? "We played good when we got ahead, but when we were behind we couldn't do anything," says Foster.

It would also be an understatement. If You Could See What I Hear tells the story of Tom Sullivan (Marc Singer), a blind college student about to graduate who treats his lack of sight with good humor but never truly admits his negative feelings about his blindness to himself. He is aided in sidestepping his problem by schoolmate Sly (R.H. Thompson) -- who serves as his eyes -- and an assortment of young college nymphs whose sympathies toward his blindness take form in casual romps through the bedsheets. Tom also has a keen interest in music and a talent for the keyboards, but never takes his musical inclinations seriously enough to do anything about them. And taking nothing seriously best describes If You Could See What I Hear. This film devotes most of its time to explaining what Tom does rather than why he does it. What starts out as a promising -- albeit confusing -- plot turns out to be a mishmash of seemingly unrelated events leading to an undefined and uninformative conclusion. The story is confused by a glaring lack of character development and the needless introduction of first ''true love" into Tom's life in the form of Heather (Shari Belafonte Harper), a black coed who falls for Tom but can't overcome the sight and racial differences. Harper is wooden as Tom's first love interest, reciting traditionally emotion-laden lines with the fervor of a cigar store Indian. "I love you" has never before sounded so much like "pass the potatoes." Sarah Torgov as Patti captures Tom's heart for the second time. Her manner is cute, but one can't get over the impression that she has all the emotional depth of a fifthgrader. Her professed love for Tom seems to be nothing more than a plea for a second father, and a blind one at that. Three things save the movie from being a complete bomb. Marc Singer and D.H. Thompson are a wonderfully funny pair as Singer jogs behind Thompson's bicycle and experiences a series of miscues that are at once both hilarious and cruel. The music isn't bad, either. The real Tom Sullivan (the film is based on his life) finally became a songwriter and professional musician, and he wrote much of the background music for the film. Finally, a wonderful scene where Tom golfs with Patti's father and a friend -- and wins -- steals the show. It's one of the few well-written, wellperformed scenes in the movie, and unlike the other 100 minutes, director Eric Till manages to pull it off. Perhaps Tom Sullivan's experiences were gutsy and told the story of a born winner. If You Could See What I Hear failed to communicate those experiences in an appealing fashion. If You Could See What I Hear is currently playing at the McDonald Theatre on the Eugene Downtown Mall and is rated PG. Springfield's new album a rock 'n' roll winner by Jeff Keating of the TORCH Success Hasn't Spoiled Me Yet Rick Springfield When Rick Springfield made his first appearance as Dr. Noah Drake on daytime TV's highly-rated General Hospital, few, if any, of that show's viewers were familiar with his musical efforts. When the album Working Class Dog and its hit single "Jessie's Girl" were released -- Springfield's most acclaimed work to date -- those same viewers were slow to associate the face on the screen with the name on the album. When they did, RCA Records and Springfield saw double platinum and dollar signs. More kudos will be accorded Springfield and Co. as a result of his latest LP, Success Hasn't Spoiled Me Yet. Without varying from his usual straightforward sound, Springfield has put together a solid -- if unspectacular -- collection of rock 'n' roll. The Aussie rocker's latest effort is as strong if not stronger than Working Class Dog, as it repeats that LP's theme of teenage frustration, loss and disappointment. "Don't Talk To Strangers," the first single released from Success Hasn't Spoiled Me Yet, is a strong tune aimed at a pop audience. It's a catchy tune, but far from the strongest on the album. A second release, ''Calling All Girls," comes closer to the sound Springfield achieved on Working Class Dog. Both cuts symbolize a rejection of conventional teenage mores and the longing for something different. The need for change is perpetuated with ''How Do You Talk To Girls," a study in the cruising habits of ,... America's teens: Well I'm sick of hangin' out on the street/Every Saturday night with the boys/Listenin' to the radio's beat/We crank it just to hear the noise. If one thing stands out as different on Success Hasn't Spoiled Me Yet, it is Springfield's inclination toward slower pieces that gradually evolve into rockers, i.e., "What Kind Of Fool Am I" and "Still Crazy For You." But the mellow bits contrast nicely with the rest of the LP's driving sound, and Spr- Are you ready for 1 /2 lb.Hamburger w /Cheese served w /Fries & Salad ... $3.40 Available at: Elaine,s Cafe 41579 McKenzie Hwy.
