Fall enrollment
steady for LCC

by Jeff Keating
and Mike Sims

of the TORCH

LCC's fall term enrollment
held steady at last year's level,
according to preliminary
figures released Tuesday.
And LCC Dean of Student
Services Jack Carter says the
enrollment numbers could be
even larger if LCC could handle the new student influx.
''The reason we're holding
steady is because we don't
have the resources to serve
more students,'' says Carter.
He added that the final fall
term enrollment tally would
not be computed until later
next week.
LCC's steady enrollment
mark coincides with a

dramatic estimated 9 percent
drop in fall enrollment at the
University of Oregon, according to preliminary statistics
released by UO officials Tuesday. And Oregon State
University's preliminary
figures show a 5 percent drop
from last fall.
With enrollment at many
state schools down, LCC's
enrollment fortunes may seem
like a surprising occurrence,
but Carter believes "many
community colleges across the
state have experienced an increase."
He went on to say that
winter and spring term
enrollments would probably
decrease from the fall term
high-water mark, as they do
traditionally.

Two relatively familiar faces were part of a protest line which marched in front of the
Administration Building last week. Those in line are members of the LCC Employees
Federation, whose members voted Tuesday whether or not to ratify a new contract.
The results of the vote were n~t available at press time.

Opposition to No. 3 runs strong
Analysis by Mike Sims

TORCH Associate Editor

Two campus organizations
are working to organize opposition to Ballot Measure
No. 3, which will appear
before Oregon voters on the
Nov. 2 general election ballot.
The LCCEA and ASLCC
have organized Eugene-area
door-to-door campaigns
against Measure 3 during October. At least 800 persons are
needed
to
canvass
Eugene/Spring field-area
voting precincts by knocking
on doors and handing out
literature Saturday, Oct. 16.
Another 800 volunteers will be
needed on Oct. 30 (also a
Saturday) to drop literature on
area doorsteps.
Dramatic funding cuts

Measure 3 would, if passed,
limit property taxes to one and
one-half percent of true cash
value ($15 per $1000) as assesed July 1, 1979. It would provide for funding of 'essential'

services (law enforcement, fire
protection and ambulance service) at 100 percent of their
1979 levels. The remainder of
available public monies would
be used to fund education,
human services and similar
services.
The measure would also require that any new taxes levied
in Oregon be approved by a
two-thirds majority vote of the
Legislature. Constitutionally,
the Legislature would become
the sole revenue-raising body
in the state.
According to Dean of Administrative Services Bill
Berry, passage of Measure 3
would have a serious impact
on LCC beginning with the
1983-84 school year.
LCC's current budget is
based upon a full-time
equivalency (FTE) of 9000
students. Budget cuts and
subsequent staff reductions
would result in a 22 percent
FTE loss, causing the elimination of 27 percent of the LCC
budget.
Consequently, 175 full-time

story, page 3.

faculty and staff and all parttime personnel would be
eliminated. This 'cost-cutting'
measure would cost LCC approximately $800,000 _-in
unemployment benefits for
laid-off personnel.
Nearly $500,000 in contingency funds and monies for
capital outlay would also be
eliminated.
''The figures speak for
themselves," says Berry. "If it
(the measure) passes, we're
obviously in deep financial
trouble."
Measure 3 was modeled
after California's Proposition
13, approved by popular vote
in 1978. However, LCCEA
president Mike Rose points
out glaring discrepancies between the economic situation in
California at the time of Proposition 13's passage and the
current state of affairs in
Oregon:
• California at that time had
a revenue surplus. Oregon is
currently deep in the hole.
• California has a state sales

tax. Oregon has none.
In 1978, a healthier
economy made California's
income tax revenues a reliable
source of state income.
Because of the current deep
recession, Oregon's income
tax is not a stable source of
revenue.
Rose states that passage of
Measure 3 would create further economic hardship for
Oregon by putting the brakes
on bonding programs which
fund economic development.
Bonding for such programs
as elderly housing, pollution
control, energy programs and
facilities for higher education
would be restricted by the provision requiring two-thirds
majority approval of the
Legislature. Veterans homes
and farm loan programs
would be eliminated.
Rose also states that passage
of the measure would cause
LCC to lose nearly 42 percent
of its 1981-82 property tax
revenues.

new film, is a brutal exercise in wasted time. See
review, page 8.

Student help requested

ASLCC President Paquita
Garatea emphasizes the need
for student help in educating
taxpayers about the ramifications of approval for Measure
3. "I can sympathize with (the
taxpayers) -- they are being
'zapped' tax-wise -- but their
children are using public
educational facilities such as
LCC. The voters and taxpayers need to be educated to
the fact that their tax dollars
are best invested in education."
- Garatea said that the
ASLCC will be distributing information about Measure 3 in
the cafeteria beginning Monday, Oct. 11.
_Canvassers will meet on
Oct. 16 and· Oct. 30 at 9 a.m.
at South Eugene High School, •

Individualism declines as America shdnks

by Jeff Keating

_TORCH Editor

In a world that is constantly
finding new ways to decrease
the amount of time needed for
long distance communication
and transportation, a depersonalization of each and every
one of us seems inevitable.
The closer we are to our
neighbors, be they in Springfield, Akron or Indochina,
the more we know about
them. And the more we begin
to act like them.
Now this in itself is not an
inherently bad thing. Every individual has redeeming
qualities that many others
might be well-advised to
adopt. In fact, many times it is
through our neighbors and
friends that we begin to see
some of the weaknesses in
ourselves and endeavor to improve upon them.
But when we begin to adopt
the attitudes and actions of
others for their sheer novelty -and nothing else -- individual
personality is placed in jeopardy. Be it Valspeak, punk haircuts or sororities and frats,
following someone else's
preference seems to be in
vogue.
What it breaks down to is
that the world is getting
smaller.
And it's a smallness we can
probably do better without.

Dragging the Main
I drove through much of the
Midwest this summer, visiting
relatives in Kansas. Although
this in itself does not seem like
anything extraordinary, I
discovered, through a variety
of remarkably similar incidents, that my summer probably wouldn't have been
much different if I hadn't left
home.
Having never been to Colorado before, I couldn't really
say much about its people or
its customs. I drove away from
that state feeling both surprised and dismayed.
If you've never been to
Burlington -- most folks
haven't -- it's a small town
about 30 miles from Colorado's eastern border. The
tallest building is perhaps
three stories tall, the lowest
partially underground, and the
people are, as in most small
towns, appropriately smalltownish. A nice place to visit,
but. ..
In any event, I hit Burlington at about 1 a.m. on a
Saturday. But I wasn't exactly
alone. At least 40 cars were
slowly cruising down Burlington's biggest street -- which
is about four blocks long -and turning around and doing
it all over again.
In Eugene -- a city of
104,000 -- I could see it: The

Camaros, Firebirds and other
muscle cars lined up at the
29th and Willamette stoplight,
cruising what is affectionately
called 'The Gut.' But in a
town one-twentieth the size? It
scared me.

Maybe
somewhat more creative Friday night hadn't occured to
anyone west of Kansas City, I
thought. My spirits lifted as I
continued eastward. Things
would get better. I foresaw a
pox on social duplication in
America's heartland.
I was wrong.
Cruising the Fe
Overland Park, Kansas, is a
pleasant Kansas City suburb

of about 80,000. In all ways, it
is an ideal town in which to
raise children, drink milk and
do other things associated with
living in Middle America.
Some of my cousins live in
the Overland Park area. And,
having nothing better to do on
a Friday night, we ended up
driving on Santa Fe
Boulevard. And Santa Fe
known in
Boulevard
Overland Park cruising circles
as simply 'the Fe' -- is a latenight haven for every bored
group of young motorists for
miles around.
And, true to form, all of the
cars and the people in them
looked alike. I sort of expected
they would.

Being real people
If it seems like I have a
vendetta against cruising, let
me dispel that misconception.
I don't. It is simply a
microcosm of a larger problem, not a personal idiosyncrasy.
The world is getting smaller.
Lacey,
from
People
Washington to Overland Park
are doing the same things in
the same way. It's part of
everyday life, not just boring
Friday nights. It's in our
television programs, our radio
shows, our reading matter,
almost telling us to be this
way, be that way, but for
heaven's sake don't be what
you are.
We must deal with it on a
personal level. That's what
makes us individuals. It's like
the old line that asked '' If
your best friend jumped off
the Golden Gate Bridge,
would you?" It would be nice
to think that most of us would
still have our feet -- and they
are ours, not somebody else's planted firmly in our own
ways of thinking.

This is the first in a three-part
series of observations about
"smallness. " Part Two will
explore why Eugene gets
smaller every day. Part Three
will address the shrinkage of
the LCC community.

Renters: You have rights
Editor's note: This article was
written by Stanley Cram, a
lawyer for the ASL CC Legal
Services Program. The program, sponsored by the
Associated Students of Lane
College
Community
(ASLCC), is designed to assist
students in coping with
various legal problems. Any
student who has a legal problem and is currently
registered for credit may see
an attorney at no cost by making an appointment at the
ASLCC Legal Services office
in the _Center Building or by
phoning extension 2340 for an
appointment.
Many students are now renting apartments and houses,
some for their first time.
Landlord-tenant problems are
some of the most common
legal problems for students
and many are easily avoidable.
Here are eight pointers you
will want to remember in your
search for housing:
1) This is a tenant's market.
The vacancy rate in Eugene
and Springfield is higher than

it has been in recent memory.
This gives you bargaining
power when dealing with a
potential landlord. In addition
to offering the landlord less
rent than he/she is asking for
the unit, you may be able to
rent the unit without paying
last month's rent and/or a
security deposit. There is no
need to rush into a housing
situation -- if you don't rent it,
it will probably remain vacant
while you ponder your decision.
2) Before renting, check out
the landlord. Talk with other
tenants in the same building
or, if possible, the tenants who
had been living in the unit in
' which you are interested. If
previous tenants have had problems with the landlord, there
is a good chance that you will
have problems with him or her
too.
3) Who pays for utilities? This
is a cost many tenants don't
consider when comparing
rent. Phone the utility company to see what previous
tenants have paid.
4) Try to rent the unit on a

month-to-month basis; avoid
long-term leases. In poor real
estate markets such as the one
that exists now, landlords will
try to get you to commit
yourself for as long as a year.
But your plans or living situation might change and rent
may continue to decline.
Leases tie up your options.
Month-to-month agreements
are better.
5) If a landlord makes you a
promise, get it in writing. If
the landlord is not willing to
do so, it probably means the
promise will be broken.
Printed rental agreements are
usually one-sided -- in favor of
the landlord -- so make sure
you read it carefully before
signing it. Promises made by
the landlord should be contained in any written rental
agreement.
6) Inspect the premises
carefully. Obtain an Inventory_
and Condition Report from
our office, fill it out, send a
copy to the landlord and keep
the original. When you move
out, the landlord will not be
able to charge you for damage

that existed before you moved
in because you will have
recorded all such damage in
the Report.
7) Consider rental insurance.
If you have many valuable
possessions, you would be
well-advised to get rental insurance in case your property
is damaged or destroyed by
fire or other causes.
8) Know your rights. The
Oregon Residential Landlord
Tenant Act was first enacted
nine years ago and has been
amended several times since
then. It isn't perfect, but it
does provide for some protection from unscrupulous
landlords. The Oregon Student Public Interest Research
Group (OSPIRG) publishes an
excellent Renter's Handbook,
which is available at our office
for no charge. If you have
more questions about a particular problem you are experiencing, make an appointment to see an attorney in our
office. There is no charge for
our services -- our program is
_sponsored by your student
government.

Verteams solving college snafus
by Mike Sims

TORCH Associate Editor

"It's here to stay -- a speedy
method of tackling issues of
concern and coming out with
concrete suggestions and solutions.''
Thus Julie AspinwallLamberts su-m s up the
Verteam concept, initiated at
LCC by the Productivity
Center last spring as a variation of the quality circle
method of problem solving.
The name "Verteam" is
short for "vertical team" and
refers to a "ladder" beginning
with classified staff members
and working its way up
through administrators. All
work together on solving a
problem plaguing some facet
of LCC life.
Verteams differ slightly

of a quality circle will identify

their own work area, while a
Verteam is made up of persons
from both within and outside
the area who will solve a problem that has already been
identified.
In creating the Verteam concept, Aspinwall-Lamberts and
Productivity Center director
Casey Fast retained several
positive aspects of the quality
circle method, among them
voluntary participation by personnel, management presentation of hard data, and a spirit
of trust and cooperation
among group members.
"Verteam members from
the area of interest provide inside knowledge of how that
area operates, thus giving the
group a clear understanding of
the problem to be faced," says

Big Brother /Sister program seeks help
by Paul Hansen

for the TORCH

"Big Brother" wants you -the college student.
Not because your mind is
more susceptible to Orwellian
logic, but because of the fine
tradition college students have
of being a warm, positive influence on many of the area's
young people.
"Big Brother" is not from
George Orwell's 1984. It's the
Big Brother-Sister program of
Eugene, which is looking for
college-age particpants to help
in a community-based service
that matches single-parent
children ages 5 to 14 with an
adult volunteer.
Carolyn Higgins, executive
director of the BB/BS Program, says she has two major
goals.
''Our first goal is to provide
a program of friendship for
children from single-parent
families . residing in the 4-J
School District who are identified by·school counselors as
needing a supportive and
positive one-to-one relationship. Secondly, to provide a
program of friendship for the
adult volunteer."
In its fifteenth year of providing companionship, the
program currently has about
160 matches. At • this time,
there is a much greater need
for Big Brothers than Big
Sisters.
The college-age volunteer
has always been an asset to the
program. "One thing about
college students is that they
don't put up with any bull.
They don't try and work out
all the problems. They just
have fun with the kids, are loving, enthusiastic and make
great volunteers," Higgins

said. '' About seven people
from LCC are in the program
~nd they are just fantastic."
Unlike the UO program,
there is no staffed BB/BS office on the LCC campus.
Anyone interested should contact Higgins at BB/BS office
on N. Monroe St. in Eugene or
call 687-3320.
Higgins stresses that
qualifications for becoming a
Big Brother or Big Sister are
stringent for good reason.
Along with the desire to

establish an open friendship
with a child, an adult must be
consistent and responsible.
''These kids have had one
disappointment ~fter another.
If a person cannot be dependable, then I don't want
·them,'' Higgins says.
Time is another essential
element. If the adult companion is a student, he or she
must be able to serve over a
three term period and spend a
minimum of three. hours per
week with a child.

Denali editor resigns post
by Cynthia Whitfield

TORCH Staff Writer

• Denali, LCC's literary magazine, is again in need of an
editor for the 1982-83 school year.
Cynthia Hansen, chosen last year by the Media Commission to head the magazine, has resigned after accepting a
full time position at the University of Oregon's Daily
Emerald.
Denali features poetry, short stories, essays and
photography along with other selected creative efforts by
LCC students and faculty.
"We're sorry to lose Cynthia," says Peggy Marston,
Cooperative Work Experience (CWE) adviser. "She was
highly skilled in production, photography and art.''
At press time, Hansen could not be reached for comment on her decision.
•
Denali is now accepting applications for the vacated
position, says Marston. "We're looking for someone with
management skills, a background in language arts and
hopefully some of the other arts. They should be able to
supervise others and be willing to be underpaid, overworked and enjoy every minute of it.''
The editorship is not a salaried position, but it can fulfill
work/study requirements. The editor should expect to
work an average of 20 hours a week with some weeks requiring longer hours.
The Denali staff is also in need of a literary editor and
arts editor, but these positions cannot be filled until an
editor is selected. The editor, in association with Language
Arts advisers, will be expected to put together the rest of
the staff.
"We're not anxious (to fill the position)," Marston said.
"We want to find the right person for the job."

This week's issue of the TORCH marks the
debut of a new feature section called Faces on
File. In keeping with the TORCH's efforts to
keep LCC students abreast of the important
names, faces and places on campus, this new
feature will spotlight a student, staff or faculty
member who is for some reason "in the news. "
Appearing in the TORCH weekly, Faces on
File will explain who this week's "face" is, their
relationship with the LCC community and the
reason behind their sudden push into the LCC or
general community limelight.
Faces on File has been designed into the paper
in such a way that it can actually be filed. The
TORCH has endeavored to design this section so
that LCC.students, staff and faculty will want to
keep a record of the people who are making news
on their campus.

Ragozzino is this week's "face" as a result of

his efforts on behalf of the new Hult Center and
for the quality of his LCC theater productions.
As well as being the head of LCC's Performing Arts department, Ragozzino has directed and
produced many of LCC Theater's stage productions, among them last winter's Hello, Dolly!
and the summer show, Cole.
As a South Eugene High School theater instructor, Ragozzino's summ~r shows were a

Bates brings B&B to Eugene
by Jeff Keating

TORCH Editor

She isn't in it just for the
money.
"It's funny," says Ursula
Bates. "I never really thought
about the money involved in it
until recently. I was just so
busy doing it.''
"It," for Bates, is the Campus Cottage Bed and
Breakfast Inn, an hotel/motel
alternative modeled after the
inns of the Victorian age.
Through LCC and UO classes,
design experience and "a lot
of learning on the job," Bates
has become the sole proprietor
of Eugene's first such
establishment.
Her new business is only
another part of a past and
future filled with similar efforts, ranging from house
building projects to wallpaperhanging jobs. And only
through a love for interior
design and construction could
the owner of a type of business
well-noted for its monetary
success "forget" about the
money.
The artistic child

Bates has always had a love
for things visual and structural. As a child in
Youngstown, Ohio -- her birthplace -- and Medford, she
had a preference for school art
classes and for helping choose
designs and color schemes
around the home.
''There was this one time,''
she recalls, ''when Mom had
the bathroom done in red,
black, white. . .oh, it was
something. But we worked it
out."
Her artistic interests lasted
well into high school and college, but ''women were not encouraged in the field of art
then." So Bates ended up taking the accepted regimen of
secretarial courses for women
and, curiously, geography
courses.
Geography?

"I love to travel," she says,
revealing another one of her
interests for which there has
been little or no time in recent
years. "I love to just be going
someplace, knowing there are
different people there.''
Her desire to travel -- after
attending colleges ranging ,
from the University of Col. orado at Boulder to Foothills
College in Los Altos, Calif., to
the University of Oregon -was partially fulfilled when
she married Ed Cripe, a high
school friend who was at that
time an officer in the US
Navy.
As with many Navy families
-- Bates and Cripe have two
children, Andy, a freshman at
Pepperdine University in
Malibu, California and Bryce,
a sophomore at Churchill
High -- the Cripes moved a
great deal. And with each new
move, whether it be to
Florida, California or
Washington State, came a different challenge: A new house.
"It seemed like every time I
turned around I was
decorating houses,'' says
Bates. "I guess that's a good
thing. I have states of grumpiness when I don't get my
creative fix.''
After Cripe left the Navy in
1969, the family moved to
Eugene. Bates' creative
tendencies then began to be exercised in earnest.
A gradual progression
toB&B

As her children attended
school in those early days of
the 1970s and her husband
established himself in
Eugene's
metropolitan
workplace, Bates did her own
thing: Making clothes for the
family and household accoutrements for their first
Eugene home. She also served
as a parent volunteer at
Magladry Elementary School
on a weekly basis and as a
community volunteer for Art
in the Schools.

_Ursula Bates stands by the sign that tells it all

•

It was all leading to
something a little bit bigger:
Her first decorating job.
'' A friend of mine had $100
and a lime-green carpet,''
Bates_ remembers. "We (she
had an associate at that time)
took that $100 and bought
wallpaper and paint and did
the living room, the bedroom,
the entry hall and the hallway.
And we still had some money
left over to pay ourselves."
She laughs. "Of course, it
figured out to about 30 cents
an hour ... "
Her first decorating effort
escalated into a series of jobs
that gained her some recognition in Eugene's interior
design community. Her success in that area is made all the
more interesting by the fact
that Bates does not have a
degree of any kind, with the
exception of ''the wallpaperhanging school of hard
knocks," she says.
"I think I've paid my dues
the hard way," she reasons. "I
spent more than four years
.hanging wallpaper and doing

remodels. You learn a lot just
doing it.''
But she felt she needed
more. Taking action on a
desire to become a general
building contractor, she
enrolled in LCC's drafting and
construction technology
classes and a UO interior
design class.
"I wanted -- and still want -to build small, well-designed
houses,'' she says. ''Too many
homes have lots of wasted
space and aren't efficient."
Bates' knowledge has been
put to use in the design of a
house she is building for
herself in Eugene. Work will
commence on the compact
structure as soon as a permit
goes through the city government.
And there's still the bed and
breakfast.
The Campus Cottage

"This was something I
always wanted to do,'' she
says, gesturing around her
well-appointed cottage living
room. "I just never got
around to it before."
The key to Bates' decision
to "get around to it" came in
May 1981, when she made a
trip with some friends to the
Victorian House Tour in Port
Townsend, Washington. She
quickly fell in love with the
houses and the attitudes of
their proprietors and came
back to Eugene ready to
remake an old house.
Unfortunately, Eugene
wasn't ready to be remade.
"Do you know there aren't
any old Victorian houses in
Eugene?" she queries.
"Believe me, I looked."
Not wanting to give up too
easily, Bates traveled to
Ashland, to look at the
numerous bed and breakfast
establishments in that area and
ask questions of their owners.
She came away feeling more
positive and with a differen t
type of house in mind.
A 1920s California-style
bungalow had caught her eye
while in Ashland, and upon
talking to the proprietor she

realized a B & B didn't have to
be big or necessarily Victorian.
"So I went from old to interesting,'' she confides.
Her final selection -- and the
result of work which has lasted
from January 1982 to the present -- rests at 1136 E. 19th,
between University and Potter
streets.
An attractive sign announcing the business sits on the
front lawn. Stone steps lead to
a facade that looks straight
out of Hansel and Gretel. Inside, a fire crackles in the
fireplace, and refurbished furniture and a variety of antiques occupy the living room.
All in all, it's just the way
Bates had it planned.
"It's not so much the house
as the people," she says.
"That's what makes or breaks
this kind of place. But the
house helps.''
Not slowing down

Ursula Bates isn't exactly at
a standstill these days.
Although her bed and
breakfast nears final completion and has been doing
business since August, she still
spends virtually every part of
every day selling the B & B
idea to individuals ranging
from University officials -, 'they have lots of guest
speakers" -- to people just
passing through Eugene.
"Open houses, a lot of
walking and talking, that kind
of thing,'' she says in explaining her advertising methods.
"I went into this (the business)
really optimistic and very
naive. I should have known
better. Anybody who puts a
house together learns how
long it takes and how hard it
is."
Will all of her effort turn into success?
"Of course," she says confidently. Then she adds, with a
smile, "I'm planning on
becoming the queen of the
small house market."
Hmmm. What was - that
about money?

1982 The TORCH

ENTERT AINMEN T
The Wall: Overexpens ive nihilism
by Dale Sinner

TORCH Staff Writer

When Pink Floyd's Roger
Waters set out to write the
screenplay for The Wall, the
group's cinema counterpart to
the album, he must have had
something definite to say,
judging by the serious tone of
the film. But like a student
who's forgotten the thesis
statement for his essay, that
"something" can seem pretty
nebulous.
The themes that do emerge
in The Wall are those of
violence, fear and frustration
as reactions to repression, all
seen through the memories
and impressions of a single
character, ''Pink,'' played by

Bob Geldof of rock's Boomtown Rats. Since the dialogue
of this movie is limited to just
a line or two, the viewers' impressions are formed through
the music and visual images
alone.
The Wall doesn't follow a
regular story sequence or time
line, but rather switches back
and forth between past and
present, reality and fantasy,
much like a stream of consciousness novel.
The film opens with scenes
of WWII, where Pink's father
is seen experiencing the
senselessness of violence and
death juxtaposed with scenes
of sensless violence from the
present; youthful concertgoers
rushing the stage, trampling

each other. These opening up being negative.

·realities: Frustration at the in- wife, who in turn becomes unability to change the human faithful to him. Pink's
condition and the violence that discovery of this spurs a

emerges from that frustration.
These dark feelings are seen where a pair of gendered

Neil Simon to open theater season
by Francy Bozarth

TORCH Staff Writer

Three productions will be
offered to the public by the
Lane Community College Performing Arts Department for
. the 1982-83 season.
"I'm looking forward to
this year,'' said Stan Elberson,
of the .Performing Arts
Department, ''The coming
year has a lot of variety, and it
is good for many levels of people."
Elberson refers to the three
productions planned for the
year, God's Favorite, a Neil
Simon comedy; Ondine, a
romance by Jean Giraudoux,
adapted by Maurice Valency;
and the classic Rogers and
Hammerstein musical, The
Sound of Music. Elberson will
be the director for God's
Favorite; to be performed
November 11-13 and 18-20,
1982, and The Sound of
Music, to be performed April

28-30 and May 5-7, 1983.
Ondine, to be performed
January 27-29 and February
3-5, 1983 will have a guest
director whose name has yet to
be announced. "Ondine is
probably least known of all
these plays,'' says Dick Reid
of the Performing Arts
Department. "Yet it promises
to be a really beautiful and
entertaining production."
Bruce Bibby, a recent
graduate of the University of
Portland, replaces David Sherman as Set Designer for the
productions. Sherman left the
position to join the LCC
Language Arts Department,
stating "I am looking forward
to the chance to do things I
haven't been able to do
elsewhere.''
Season tickets for these productions can be purchased at
the LCC box office, located in
the Performing Arts Building
between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m.,
Monday through Friday, or by

As with all publications -- and much as we hate to admit
it -- the TORCH does make mistakes.
The first issue of the newspaper, which went on the

identity of the director of another service. We also
misspelled the name of one of our story subjects.
Our apologies to the workers in Student Employment
Services, which is located on the second floor of the Center
Building next to Financial Aid. We also regret the error we
made concerning the Career Information Center, which is
located in Room 203 of the Center Building.

TORCH Staff Writer

Looking ahead to the
1982-83 LCC sports year,
Athletic Director Sue Thompson sees ''a super year of
athletic ability in both the
coaching staff and our student
athletes."
Thompson announced the
addition this fall of two new
coaches: Cheryl Brown,
volleyball, and Dave Poggi,
soccer. "Both are energetic
and enthusiastic individuals,"

Volleyball

Brown, a 1981 graduate of

According to Brown, prospects look bright with three
returning players, two of
whom are starters. She cited
Kathy Metzler and Camee
Pupke, former District 5AAA
all-stars from Thurston High
and Cottage Grove High,
respectively, as potential Titan
standouts.
The volleyballers opened the
1982 campaign by winning the
OCCAA pre-season jamboree
at Pendleton. They then took
second place at the Umpqua
C.C. tournament in Roseburg,
winning 11 of 12 matches.
They open conference play
Friday, Oct. 1 at home against
Umpqua. All home matches
begin at 7 p.m.

Poggi says that the majority ,
of his team members are
freshmen but two players
return from last year. "We're
still holding tryouts but hope
to learn more about who our
team leaders are soon." The
team has been tested once, in a
pre-season match against the
U of O which ended in a 3-3
tie. Sola Adjendi tallied twice
for the Titans, with Daniel
Corona's 30-foot goal rounding out the scoring.
One pre-season match -- a
Sept. 29 affair against
Willamette -- remained with
results unavailable at press
time. The team opens OCCAA
competition Saturday, Oct. 9
at home against Portland C.C.
