Lane Community College 'The Pacesetter of Oregon College Newspapers' Vol. 23, No. 9 November 18 - Be.ember -~ 1982 Criteria amassed for possible R1'7 by Dale Sinner TORCH Staff Writer Because of an expected budget shortfall of $600,000 for the 1983-84 ·school year and the possibility of greater shortfalls in the future, the Office of Instruction is constructing a plan for the systematic reduction of LCC programs and possible faculty and staff layoffs. The plan will enable the Office of Instruction to reduce specific programs (which the college defines as any "college course, instructional program, activity, function, or operation'') according to both quantitative and qualitative criteria · rather than "across-the-board" cuts that LCC has experienced in the past, according to Associate Dean of Instruction Jim Ellison. Ellison and Dean of Instruction Gerald Rasmussen presented an outline of the plan to faculty members and department heads Nov. 16. 'Comprehensive college' still the goal, but '83-84 cu~s could reduce programs What the plan means, according to Ellison, is that both objective and subjective criteria agreed upon by department heads will be used by the Office of Instruction to judge the value and importance of specific programs. When complete on Nov. 30, these lists of criteria will be used to reduce programs determined least important, instead of forcing all programs to receive equal cuts. According to Ellison, this is neccessary because ''across-the-board cuts will destroy the quality of instruction. You've got to have a plan for change and growth." Ellison and Rasmussen emphasized the need for this type of "planned change," that is, "growth or reduction within developed parameters.'' Ellison says that the college's mission is t_o remain "comprehensive," meanmg a· mix of vocational, college transfer, and community education programs. But he said the college will alter the sizes of some programs and possibly eliminate others. And he says that as some programs expand, there will be equal reductions in other areas. Ellison says that the plan evolved as an answer to the question of how to cut the budget and do the least amount of damage to a comprehensive educational program. In mid-October department heads and some other administrators compiled 60 items of program criteria submitted for a vote. That number has been narrowed to 30. (An item receiving less than a 45 percent vote is dropped.) According to Ellison, department heads and the Office of Instruction are reducing the criteria to those items considered most important and cla'rifying their meanings. At present, some of the quantitative criteria deemed most important are: • Cost per FTE (Full-time equivalent) • Cost of program • Number of FTE generated • Employment opportunities in program field • Student demand Some of the most important qualitative criteria include: • Relationship to the mission of the college • Community need for the program • Student support • Community support \ • • Relationship to st goals By heads tion administrators will assigned "weight" or valu each of the criteria, som ing given more import than others. Says Ellison, in ~the ev budget shortfalls instru low priority programs be notified in '' a reas and timely manner,'' if l ofts -- or "riffing" (reducting i force) -- becomes neccessary. When asked why there is such a push to get the reduction program in place, Ellison replied that the college needs the plan in order to reduce programs if budget shortfalls exist. He said the Board of Education may decide as early as February to place a request for additional funding on a May 17 ballot. If a tax levy fails, the program reduction plan would be used. KLCCfa/1 Radiothon reaches $25,000 goal by Cathy Benjamin TORCH Staff Writer KLCC reached its $25,000 fall Radiothon goal •Monday after seven days of soliciting listener support for the _sta_ tion. Kris Fox, KLCC continuity director, says the goal was reached earlier than expected. The last Radiothon ran 10 days before the $25,000 goal was met. Fox says she believes the Radiothon's early ,success could be due to the bad weather thaf kept more people inside listening to their radios. She also believes the translator in Florence which enables KLCC to reach people living on the coast and new programming that the station has add- ed since last spring helped in the drive. Of the new programming, Fox says that Prairie Home Companion on Saturdays and Mist Covered Mountain on Sundays brought in a lot of money. KLCC is funded by LCC, the Corporation for Public Broadcasting, local businesses and the community. The $25,000 raised in the Radiothon will go into the station's general operating budget, Fox says. The Radiothon was made possible by almost 100 volunteers and six staff members. Persons interested in volunteering at KLCC can contact Kris Fox at the KLCC office, ext. 2486. LCC Pres. Eldon Schafer (top row, fourth from right), returned to Eugene Nov. 12 after a six-week trip to the People's Republic of China. Schafer made the journey as part of a multinational group of educators helping the Chinese to implement a community college system.

Page 2 November 18 - Pe einl r l, 1982 The TORCH FREE FOR ALL ASLCC proving student government works by Jeff Keating TORCH Editor And now, just for a change of pace. Here's to the ASLCC! I hear you. You're saying, "'-"But Jeff, you as a newspaperperson-intraining know as -well as anyone that saluting -- much less liking -- the student government at your paper's school is tantamount to journalistic treason.'' After all, you say, student newspapers are supposed to acf as the student conscience with regard to student government, i.e., investigating ~& criticizing their actions with teclless abandon. It's like a proud tradition. Well, some traditions are best put to rest. And let the record show . .. I think the this year's student government is thus far deserving of praise. More than a few of us, I'm sure, remember the do-nothing, saynothing policies of last year's ASLCC. Granted, Ruben Robles and Company suffered at the hands of the dread "student apathy" -- which also served as a handy excuse for just about everything -- but that resulted almost entirely because of their ineffectiveness at communicating with their constituents, the students. Paquita Garatea and her corps have experienced no such problems, to the best of my knowledge. The record says they're trying harder: • Peace Week -- which ends tomorrow -- is an ASLCC-sponsored look at the hazards of nuclear war and what part we as individuals will play. • The ASLCC actively demonstrated in front of the Health building during the fumes scare and was instrumental in the administration's decision to move the Child Development Center to Dunn School. • Ballot Measure No. 3 fell to defeat in the Nov. 2 election, due in part, no doubt, to the ASLCC's campaign against the property tax cutting measure, which increased student/voter awareness. • The student government is suppor- ting -- on advisement from a concerned student -- an investigation into PE department fees and funding which the student claims are allegedly excessive and unaccountable monies. Let's keep it up In all of the above instances, the ASLCC has kept the student body informed as to their goings-on and how concerned parties can help. There are those who say student government -- ·especially on a community college level -- is a waste of time, with no serious project_s being undertaken and no real results. This year's ASLCC is proving those folks wrong.

The TORCH November 18 - D Editor's note: An avid student of history and government, TORCH Associate Editor Mike Sims has written a "letter" to John F. Kennedy as the anniversary of the late president's assasination approaches. Dear Jack, Martyrdom does funny things to a person's image. He or she immediately becomes bigger than life, almost a demigod. Such was the case in the days and weeks, the months and years after Dallas. The nostalgia, the remembrances of Camelot, of youth, "vigah" and innovation have diminished with time. Today, as we begin the 20th year since your administration ended, we have begun to remember it more objectively and analytically. And I think you'd be one of the first to agree that this is the best way to learn from history and those who made it. wbeird , 1982 Page 3 ''De ar Jac k'' That "ugly little war" Perhaps the biggest influence in the decade after your administration was the war in Viet Nam. In your day, it . was written as two words. Later it became one word, a word that meant a lot of trouble for your successor and the entire country. You, your predecessors all the way back to FDR, and your sucessor -President Johnson -- have all been blamed for getting us into that quagmire in the first place. The question of which leader got us into the Vietnam War is now a moot point. Last week a monument was dedicated in Washington, D.C. Inscribed upon it are the names of 57,000 men and women who went to Vietnam and never returned. Inscribed upon the memories of millions of Americans are images of a decade filled with violence, discord, and despair -- all stemming . from the issue of American forces in Southeast Asia. , You planned to remove all US personnel from Vietnam in 1965 following your almost certain reelection. You also believed that such a move would make you the most unpopular president in history. Perhaps such a withdrawal would have met with great disapprQval. A consensus of opinion in 1965 favored an American presence in Vietnam. Yet one can't help but feel that many problems now facing our country would be simpler or even nonexistent were it not f-or ''that ugly little war.'~ Weakenjng -- or facing reality? Public opinion both here and abroad following the fall of Vietnam to the Communists in 1975 was that America had lost a test of wills with the Communist world. Detractors of detente, as US diplomacy with the Soviets was called during the '70s , claimed that Presidents Richard Nixon (you heard right) and Gerald Ford had compromised US interests in negotiating arms limitation treaties and cutting the defense budget. Their successor, a Georgia peanut farmer, made further cuts which critics labeled near-suicidal. This peanut farmer, former Gov. Jimmy Carter, inherited three major problems which were interrelated in many ways and began back in '73. In retaliation for our support of Israel during their Yorn Kippur war with Egypt, the Arabs stopped sending us oil. An "energy crisis" ensued, which started us thinking about how limited our natural resources were and how dependent we were on imported oil. We were reminded again of our dependence on other folks' oil a few years later, this time thanks to a cataclysmic turn of events in another Middle Eastern country. Commentary by Mike Sims Photo by Andrew Hanhardr For many years Shah Mohammed Reza Pahlavi and Iran were numbered among America's greatest friends abroad. When the Shah visited you in the spring of '62, your pal Dave Powers greeted him by proclaiming grandly, "You 're my kind of Shah." Well, he may have been Dave's kind of Shah but he didn't exactly appeal to most of the people in his own land. These folks, upset 6y violations of human rights and the evildoings of the Shah's secret police, raised enough hell to drive the Shah off the Peacock Throne and out of Iran in February 1979. Waiting in the wings was a Moslem holy man, Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini. One of the first things he did upon seizing power was to halt Iranian oil exports to the US. Once again, the oil crunch was on. Not Imig thereafter, the ailing Shah was admitted to the US to receive cancer treatments. Iranian requests for his extradition to Tehran were refused. Iranian anger festered. And then, America again felt humiliation at the hands of a foreign land. In November 1979, an angry mob captured the American Embassy in Tehran and took 52 persons hostage. They remained Iranian prisoners for 444 days (we all kept track) while President Carter and others negotiated for their release. The death of the Shah in mid-1980 did little to expedite the matter. The hostages were finally set free on January 20, 1981: 20 years after you proclaimed the passing of the torch to a new generation, several hours after the torch was again passed -- to President Ronald Reagan. You remember Reagan as a movie star and host of TV's General Electric Theatre. He served two terms as governor of California and was elected presi- , dent in 1980. He inherited a nation whose strength was under some suspicion from both within and without. Despite your test-ban treaty of 1963, the arms race with the Soviets had intensified. This escalation began in 1964, when Nikita Khruschev, who had fallen into slight disfavor with the Central Committee after you stood him down in Cuba, was removed from his seat of power. He was replaced by Leonid Brezhnev, who began a massive Soviet arms buildup which has resulted in parity (and in some areas, superiority) with us . Brezhnev and President Nixon began arms reduction talks shortly after Nixon took office. At the same time the Soviets were increasing their sphere of influence all over the world, from Latin America to the Middle East. Brezhnev died last week and his successor, a former KGB chief named Yuri Andropov, quickly made it clear that he will take a hard-line stance in East-West relations. President Reagan implemented a similar "talk tough, get tough" policy with the USSR shortly after taRing office. And though some called it appeasement, I think you'd agree that the atmosphere of communication and negotiation which prevailed during the '70s was greatly preferable to the mistrust and nearly closed lines of communication which stand between us and the Soviet Union today. Your dealings with the USSR helped "thaw"the Cold War. The Washington-Moscow "hot line" has proved to be a boon in AmericanSoviet relations. Yet times have changed since the early '60s. The US no longer enjoys the strategic superiority it did in your day. And our leaders deal with different leadership in the Kremlin than your administration did. When you first took office, you observed that there were far more limitations on America's ability to produce favorable results in its role as defender of the free world. Those limitations have increased greatly in the last 21 years. A breach of confidence Your opponent in the 1960 election had a problem: Too much confidence in his ability (or power) to influence America's course. This overconfidence may have contributed to the downfall of Pres. Richard Nixon, elected in 1968. Nixon's downfall began during the 1972 election campaign when four men were caught burglarizing the Democratic National Committee headquarters at the Watergate complex in Washington. Watergate became a household word for the next two years, as investigations by the Washington Post revealed that involvement in the break-in extended all the way to the White House. Lengthy Senate hearings during the summer of '73 revealed that Nixon had not only known about the break-in but had knowledge of and approved a cover-up of the affair. Talk of im- peachment ran rampant, and Nixon's support gradually eroded in Congress. In August 1974, he became the first president to resign. He , was succeded by Vice-Pres. Gerald Ford, who ascended from Congress to the second highest office following the resignation of veep Spiro Agnew the previous fall. Agnew had been found guilty of income tax evasion and official misconduct while governor of Maryland. The fall of Nixon in disgrace overshadowed his remarkable foreign policy accomplishments. In renewing ties with Red China, Nixon achieved perhaps one of the greatest diplomatic feats in our history. Since Nixon, presidents and all public officials have been under intensive scrutiny, their honesty and integrity suspect merely because of their chosen path in life. In your day, the press was often obliging in overlooking misconduct on the part of government officials. In the post-Watergate era, political boo-boos in the boardroom and bedroom are heard of with increasing frequency. I didn't say they happen more often, just that now Joe and Jane Citizen get let in on the secret more often. Even you and your administration, Jack, have been subject to study and criticism in the last Si or seven years. Many people believe that Nixon and others of his ilk were no different than you, your predecessors, your successor. They simply got caught. A thousand-day legacy Your critics today charge that some of the legacies you left behind contributed to Vietnam, to Watergate . To our difficulties in the Middle East and in revolutionary Latin America. To our economic crisis. Today, the lustre of .the Kennedy years has faded a bit. Perhaps a thousand days isn't enough time to prepare a lasting legacy, one that endures beyond two decades. Yet many would agree I think, that judging from your performance during your nearly three years in office, your leadership during the rest of the 1960's could have produced results that would have caused the New Frontier to blossom into a more secure and prosperous America. Your friend, Mike Page 4 November 18 - Il@GiRlQif la, 1982 The TORCH SRC sponsoring recycling drive .,h__ :;..--·1"'....-~ ---~ ..) ' by Jeff Keating TORCH Editor LCC's Student Resource Center (SRC)-sponsored Recycling Program is well underway and looking for increased participation from all areas of campus, according to SRC staffer Ed Langston. The program, which has been in existence since 1973, encourages faculty, students and staff to become more conscientious about preservation of natural resources by recycling waste paper from different campus work areas. Langston and SRC and LCC staff members are actively campaigning to increase awareness about the program, which has "never had the continuity to get it really moving," says Langston. He adds that although former SRC directors were enthused about recycling and made significant contributions, the program never really "took off." Present SRC recycling efforts, says Langston, have taken form in increased advertising campaigns, general students awareness and, ·most notably, recycling bins set up at major points on campus to handle newsprint. Langston stresses that the recycling program is designed for the students' benefit. "This work will ultimately go into something that will be beneficial to students," he says. "The money from this project will be put back into student funds.'' A Recycling Advisory Committee comprised of representatives from different. departments and buildings on campus has been formed to coordinate the recycling activities and contribute a wide range of promotional ideas. The SRC is also tentatively planning some guest speakers during the winter months and recycling contests involving students and staff in the near future. "We've gotten a lot of support," says Langston, "and a lot of people have expressed interest in our efforts, but the bulk of our help still comes from faculty and staff. We need more Ht( students.'' .a Langston expresses his thanks to those who have been helping "" <l with the recycling program, and urges any and all interested to phone or stop by the SRC in the second floor lobby of the 0 Center building. -Z.

The Women's Clinic offers a complete health care exam for $10. Included is a breast and thyroid exam, a pelvic exam, pap smear, sexuality counseling, demonstration and counseling on birth control methods, VD tests and other necessary tests. Pregnancy tests, prescriptions for birth control pills and other birth control methods are extra. All enrolled LCC women are eligible for the service, but must make an appointment for the exam, which takes approximately one hour. Shermaine Swearingen performs the examination.

The TORCH November 18 · ..Oeeeme,r:::t, 1982 Page 5 Photo courtesy LCC Archi ves by Nancy Penman Like snow, the decision to close the campus during extreme weather conditions comes from on high. The college president decides. The president's assistant, Larry Warford, remembers last year's ice storm and LCC's two-day closure. "This doesn't happen often," he says, but "the primary co·n-· cern during extreme weather conditions is for the safety of the students and staff. . . The decision to close is made by the president." Warford says if "extreme" conditions com.e about during the winter months of 1982-83, closure would happen this way: • If after checking all areas of the campus; the "graveyard" shift security officer assesses weather conditions hazardous enough to warrant consideration of school closure, he contacts the ~ppropriate local agencies to determine the next several hours' weather forecast. He also checks road conditions with local and Oregon State Police. • .The officer contacts the grounds manager at about 3 a.m. because the sanding crew may need to be roused and readied. • He phones LCC Pres. Eldon Shafer no later than 5:30 a.m. If he is unable to contact the president he contacts the Dean of Instructional Operations, Gerald Rasmussen. With the above information the president decides whether to close school, keep it open, or delay opening the campus for several hours. • If the president decides to close the campus, the security officer makes some more important phone calls: The media are notified; certain campus service employees expected to "show'' even in snow, such as switchboard personnel and security officers, are contacted. "This does not include teachers under union contract, who do not need to report during closure,'' says Warford. If the college is to remain open, Security Officer Ron Hendrickson says the roads and walkways will be attended to. "We have a new Cushman sand-throwing truck and lots of sand. We are ready," he assures. He asks students and staff, for safety's sake, to stick to the sanded paths. Hendricks also suggests commuters not park too close to adjacent cars in the parking lots during ice and snow and to pull out slowly to avoid spinning. Motorists may save the fenders or the rear ends of cars parked in adjacent spaces by moving slowly. Groundskeepter Jo Stejskal suggests the word for snow is "slow." Stejskal cautions students to remember that even walking at normal speed across icy patches is difficult. A winter checklist for students and staff would include: • Rising earlier than usual during bad winter weather. • Turning on the radio -- KUGN and KPNW usually carry full reports of school closures or delays. • Checking the car and considering taking the bus.

An average teleco ference lasts around two hours and LCC could charge $100 to $200 an hour, depending on the attendance nd the facility . being used.

More than 1000 LCC students watch one or more of the 18 telecourses available through the Media Services Department, according Jo Cynde Leathers , LCC telecourse coordinator. Students explore holistic health concepts , upgrade office skills, examine foreign and historical societies, question career goals , investigate child development, scrutinize the solar system and experience night piloting while reclining at home in their favorite chairs . LCC cablecast its first credit classes in the spring of 1979 to an enrolled audience of 24. That number steadily increased as class selections became more comprehensive and the convenience of the program gained popularity, says Leathers. A survey of this Most classes require two or three 30-minute viewings each week during the term. The shows are repeated several times . For example , each of the 20 lessons for Making It Count : An Introduction to Computers are shown five times on various days and times including some weekend slots. Students without televisions can view telelessons in the library during regular library hours . (It is advised that students schedule this type of viewing for non -peak library hours -- either early or late in the day .) Data processing instructor Jerry Nehring says he's convinced that telecourses offer an effective learning experience for the 300 students in Making It Count. He uses the same tapes in four of his on-campus computer classes . All courses, developed· by media and educators specialists, are owned or leased by LCC. Courses are broadcast on OPB channels and cable channel 20. Most telecourses offer college transfer credits. Students recewing financial aid , however, can not earn credits for more than one-half of their total credit hours per term . Class lists are available in the Media Services Department, located 'in the basement of the Center Building. Tuition cost is $5 higher than the regular class Jee. Leathers says she expects the number of students in the telecourse program to continue to increase . She adds that many non-student viewers probably take advantage of the telecourses. I I f. ,I II r I term 's telecourse participants shows a wide variety of reasons for attendance growth. The audience ranges from students who are physically unable to attend on-campus classes to Jul/time sutdents who have tight schedules. Full-time workers and homemakers also participate .

Many surrounding area churches and organizations have planned dinners and activities. On Thanksgiving day from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. the Salvation Army will sponsor a dinner at the Senior Services Center, located at C and Water streets in Springfield. More than four hundred people were served last year. About the same number are expected this year. The Eugene Miss.ion ,will have a free meal on Nov. 25 at 12:30 p.m. directed mainly toward the homeless. The Mission is located at 1542 W. 1st, Eugene. Also on Thanksgiving Day, Our Redeemer Lutheran Church, 255 Maxwell Rd., Eugene, will have a dinner from noon to 2 p.m. For more information call 688-2027. On Wednesday Nov. 24, the First Baptist Church of Eugene, 868 High St., will be having a Thanksgiving dinner for $4 a plate. Tickets must be purchased in advance. On Saturday, Nov. 20, 700 Club Counseling Center will be having a full course dinner at the Eugene Hilton. This fund-raising event costs $7.50 and will also feature a fashion show and guest speakers. by Emanuel Okpere for the TORCH Do you know the reason why Lane County has a very high unemployment rate and what one LCC employment service is doing about it? According to Linda Kluver, the coordinator of LCC's Job Placement Office (JPO), area unemployment is caused by heavy reliance on jobs li~e lumberjacks , logging, millwork and carpentery. And there are over 17,000 people unemployed, UQlike Portland, where she says a greater diversity of jobs has resulted in a lower unemployment rate. However, the JPO is trying its best to help job-hungry LCC students. Kluver says the office filled about 60 to 70 percent of the job opportunities it received for the month of October. Kluver says, ''Our students compete with other. jobless people who have all day to go around looking for jobs, while the students go to school •and look for jobs. "But employers go for the most experienced candidates for the available positions. That is why we help the students have a well written resume from the Job Skills Lab when they go for inter- views," she quickly adds. She says the office is in competition with the student unemployment office of the University of Oregon and with newspapers. ''Whenever they (the employers) call us to tell us about the job opportunities they also call the 15th and Agate (U of 0) office and put advertisements in the papers, too," she says. The coordinator noted happily that they (JPO) have feedbacks that the students who were employed "are doing fine. I'm real proud because all the employers are pleased with the students." Inter natio nal work avai lable to LCC students by Lucy Hopkins tor 1hc TO K. C H Last year six LCC students left their homes to travel to foreign lands. All had gone through hours of preparation and hard work getting ready for a summer-long session of work experience and new cultures. International Cooperative Experience (ICE) has a limited number of ten-week long summer work stations available in Switzerland, Belgium, France and Germany. Two new prograrvs are also available in Greece and Turkey. Peggy Marston, ICE coordinator for LCC, says working in a foreign country is an ''educational experience'' that allows the student to grow and learn. Marston stressed the fact that foreign countries depend on students from all over the world to fill in the void that employees on vacation leave. The student must be determined and willing to put in the hours that it takes to qualify to go overseas. Marston says the student can get help in preparing for the inevitable ''culture shock'' that going to a foreign country can cause. Also pro- vided are counseling and budget planning assistance for the trip overseas. Qualifying for the program is tough, says Marston, but if students commit themselves and work hard, traveling overseas becomes a definite possibility. Students interested in international work are required to: • Be 18 years of age or older. • Fill out applications. • Have one year applicable foreign language. • Have one year work experience prior to departure. • Submit a current resume of education and work history. 1 _t!_~Nu.

There is a basic processing fee of $300 that covers the cost of locating a job for each student's particular needs. A total of $500 is recommended for extra cash and living costs until an initial paycheck is According to Marston, all jobs are paid and housing is either free, as a result of living with a family, or minimal if other types of living arrangements are made. ''Finding the student housing is our (ICE) responsibility," says Marston. Of the I00 job positions available only 31 were filled last year. According to Marston, 50 students have inquired about the program this year, but she expects that number will drop when the time and money commitment become a problem. The deadline to apply for ICE is Dec. 10. Students interested are encouraged to talk to Marston. Her office is located in the ASLCC offices, fourth floor Center building.

They introduce students to the use of tools, advertising concepts, and design and layout techniques which can be combined to communicate a specific idea. Students can choose to transfer to the bachelor of fine arts or bachelor of science degree programs in basic design at the University of Oregon and Oregon State University. Some students seek employment as graphic design or commercial art apprentices after completion of the oneyear program. These fields are highly competitive, says Cole. There are very few job openings even at the lowest entry skill levels, especially in the Eugene area. Yet ''everyone who wants a job'' can be placed, she says.

The TORCH November 18 - f)e:cmbet lf 1982 Page 9 'Unplugging the Christmas tree' by Will Doolittle for the TORCH The Christmas holiday season is supposed to be a time of joy and celebration. But for many people "depression and panic" are the dominant emotions, according to Linda Pompei, leader of an LCC workshop entitled ''Unplug the Christmas Machine.'' The three hour workshop is offered through the Home Economics Department. Participants examine their feelings about Christmas, how they celebrate it, and come up with specific goals to make the holiday meet their needs. Pompei explains that the ''commercialization'' of Christmas often promotes unrealistic expectations. These may turn into feelings of disappointment and guilt when peoples' hopes are unfulfilled. ''There was a time not too long ago," says Pompei, ''when people were satisfied with walnuts and an orange.'' Today, she asserts, Christmas has become a $10 billion a year industry. Pompei believes people should realize that ''money and happiness don't have to be equated," and suggests making holiday celebrations more compatable with ones' situation. Sylvia Hanley, who attended the workshop last year, says she went in curious, wondering what she could learn. She came out feeling she had ''been given permission not to have a superb celebration'' and that she could ''leave things out and still have a good time.'' She and her husband, Tim, shunning the "mad race" of having to "surpass the past (Christmases)," got together and prioritized their goals. .They realize they didn't have to entertain as much as they had in the past. Pompei notes that this year more than last, finances were a concern to workshop participants. And she has some suggestions for people who are feeling the pinch of tight pocketbooks: • Instead of each person giving a gift to everyone else in the family, draw names so individuals need only give one or two presents. Thinking of alternative gifts, such as time, to give • Make gifts instead of buy-:ing them. • Think of "alternative gifts," such as time, to give. Children, says Pompei, are particularly susceptible to Christmas commercialization. Television and advertizing lead children to expect a lot of Christmas does not have to be presents, she says. To a lonely time. Pompei suggests counteract this, she recom- that he/she invite someone to mends starting early and in- share dinner, or find a group cluding children in the holiday • or institution such as a nursing planning. And it is important home that needs help. to check their TV viewing and try to make sure that their expectations are realistic. Life After Christmas According to both Pompei and Hanley many workshop participants felt that in a traditional family situation, it is usuallly the woman of the house who does most of the work involved in preparing the Christmas celebration. Thus, it stands to reason that she would carry more of the stress of making it a success.

Dial M for Murder STARRING Grace Kelly in The film does have a few redeeming qualities. Phoebe Nichols, as Palin's fiance, has a pouty winsomeness which brings to mind General Hospital's Holly Sutton. We learn that while Palin ministered to natives in Africa for ten years, she filed and cross-filed her correspondence from him. This she continues throughout the film, and it's one running gag that isn't run into the ground. SECOND · NATURE USED BIKES Often there is a "letdown time" in January, after the festivities are over and the bills start arriving. Statistically, she says, there is an increase in visits to psychiatrists in this period. person running along the distant shore. The moment was genuinely funny, but weak and pathetic when you consider that it inspired the biggest laugh of the whole film. Yet Nichols' performance and some magnificent cinematography aren't enough to save The Missionary from being an unholy waste of $4. According to promoters, a person in Palin's situation "must not only pray for guidance but strength.'' I think that an answered prayer for guidance might well keep most people from squandering their money. And if that prayer goes unanswered, God give them strength. The aftermath of the holiday season also brings its share of problems, according to Pompei. Men should realize that "there is more to it than just paying the bills afterwards.'' By sharing more of the burdens, men can also share more of the joys, she says.

However, unlike the teams of the past, the Titans will not be heading for the NJCAA National Championships with a chance to reclaim the title they lost in 1981 but won in 1979 and 1980. The OCCAA schools are not participating in the National Championships as a result of the decision by Oregon community college presidents not to compete. The lack of opportunity to participate in nationals has not dampened the spirits of the runners, however. They demonstrated their spirit at the Region 18 championships. They were called ''the best team ever at this level and possibly the best in the nation'' by several coaches at the region meet. As a team, the top seven runners were under 19 minutes. The Titans will replace the national meet on their schedule with the Northwest Championships to be held at Tacoma Community College in Tacoma on Nov. 20. "We are really excited about this meet because the Washington schools have not participated in the nationals in the past and their teams have often been stronger than the national championship team,'' Coach Lyndell Wilken says.

"We're looking forward to a third or fourth place spot in the playoffs." He noted that the "teams to beat" in this year's Region 18 roundball championship race are Northern Idaho, Southern Idaho and Ricks College. Southern Idaho was last year's Region 18 champion.
