Economic recovery is goal

Analysis by Mike Sims

TORCH Associate Editor

Alleviating
Oregon's
economic woes will be, in the
long run, the biggest concern
of the 1983 Legislature.
But the 62nd assemblage of
Oregon's lawmakers may first
have to wait for the Senate to
organize itself -- something its
Democrats have been unable
to do in the three caucuses
since Election Day, Nov. 2.
Senate Democrats (who
hold a 21-9 majority) will
caucus today in Salem and
hope to elect a president
before the Legislature convenes Jan. 10. So far none of
the announced contenders
has garnered the 16 votes
necessary for election.
Liberal factions in the
Legislature fear that if the
question is decided on the
Senate floor, a coalition of
Republicans and conservative
Democrats could seize control.
Conversely, rural and conser-

A major new income tax
and reduction in state property
tax relief highlight the
legislative package Gov. Vic
Atiyeh will present to the
legislature.
Atiyeh has proposed a one
percent gross income tax on
personal income and corporate net receipts -- funds remaining after expenses are
deducted on corporate income
tax returns.

vative elements have expressed
disdain for the liberal
Portland/Eugene bloc which
controlled the Senate in 1981
and the possibility of a repeat
performance this session.
Across the Capitol Building,
the House of Representatives
is organized and ready for
business with Lane County
well represented in the lower
chamber's leadership cadre.
Ten-year incumbent Rep.
Grattan Kerans (D-Eugene)
was elected House Speaker
Nov. 7 in an eight-hour caucus
of the 36 House Democrats.
Kerans won the 31 necessary
votes for election on the 52nd
ballot of the caucus.
Kerans was questioned as a
candidate by some House
members because of his
outspoken liberal stance on
many issues. However, he
believes that he has reassured
all factions concerned of his
desire to run the chamber with
a fair hand. Indeed, one goal
of Kerans' is to bring some

semblance of unity to the
House Democratic caucus
after several sessions of
discord within its ranks.
Achieving Kerans' goal
should be aided by the selection of Rep. Peggy Jolin
(D-Cottage Grove) as majority
whip. Part of Jolin's job in
this capacity will be to muster
votes for partisan Democratic
issues.
Jolin' s selection came as a
surprise to political experts
who recalled her lack of support for liberal Democratic
stances on most issues facing
the 1981 House. Indeed, Jolin
was named "Best Freshman
Republican'' during a
legislative gag awards
ceremony at session's end.
Kerans also foresees an
amicable and productive rapport with the House
Republican caucus, headed by
another Eugenean -- Rep.
Larry Campbell.

highlights Atiyeh 's 1983-85 budget
tion requires a balanced
budget.
The package contains a proposal for property tax relief
combining two existing relief
programs and basing relief
eligibility on income rather
than property value.
Atiyeh's tax package is considered by many experts to be
among the fairest of the proposed
revenue-raising
measures. It would enable the
state to return to state agencies
most of the $600 million lost
as the result of budget cuts
during the past two years.
Legislators reacted to
Atiyeh's proposals with a
''wait-and-see'' attitude.
House Speaker-elect Grattan
Kerans (D-Eugene) called the
tax package "simple (and)
straightforward" but also said

that it would come up against
more progressive ideas in the
legislature.
House Republican leaderelect Larry Campbell of
Eugene commented on the
"ingenuity" of the governor's
proposals but said he wanted
more information from
revenue experts before making
any judgements. He also
reiterated Kerans' statement
that other plans of action
would also come under consideration.
Kerans and Senate Majority
Leader Dell Isham (D-Lincoln
City) have expressed concern
that Atiyeh's tax package will
most negatively affect middle
and upper-middle income taxpayers. Homeowners earning
more than $30,000 annually
would pay more income taxes

Atiyeh also stated that
about $20 million would be
added to the state's higher
education budget under his
budget proposal. This should
result in a "tuition freeze" at
Oregon's state colleges and
universities, he said.
Atiyeh's proposed budget
also allocates $103.8 million
for state support of community colleges. According to the
Department of Education, this
is $6 million over the 1981-83
budget but falls $19 million
short of the state Board of
Education request for
1983-85.

Department of Education
reimburses community colleges on the basis of how many
FTE each school serves.
According to LCC Dean of
Administrative Services Bill
Berry, the college should continue to serve approximately
1000 unreimbursed FTE per
term as it has in recent years.
"The governor's budget
recommendations wouldn't
have much impact on LCC as
we've been overserving FTE
for several years,'' Berry
stated. He also explained that
LCC's 1982-83 FTE of 8700
falls short of last year's projections by about 300. ''This is
a fairly common occurrence,''
Berry said.

1983 -- A new year _vvith nevv goals
by Jeff Keating

TORCH Editor

Welcome
back to the
land of the
living, the
(gasp!) real
world, LCCstyle. Once
again, we face the advent of
another term in these hallowed
halls of learning, where we
never let our schooling interfere with our education.
With the new year and the
new term come new respon-

sibilities, new challenges, new
goals. Many of you have undoubtedly made resolutions,
vows, or whatever you want to
call them, for 1983.
That seems like a good idea.
Didn't it seem like there were a
lot of things that just didn't
seem to get done last term and
last year?
On a national level, wasn't
the recession/ depression supposed to bottom out? Wasn't
unemployment supposed to
peak, and then fall off? And
what about that oh-sostrangely-increasing deficit?
Hmmm.

Along slightly more local
lines, wasn't the Kulongoski Atiyeh showdown supposed to
be a trifle closer at the ol'
ballot box? Shouldn't we have
a county administrator? And
how many times was the state
budget ''balanced?''
And to bring it really close
to home, what will LCC do
about the impending 1983-84
budget disaster? Will a serial
levy be proposed by the college, and will it pass? Will the
fumes controversy ever be truly resolved? And will Florence
Hedden find true happiness in
retirement?

In last year's final issue
(Dec. 2) I asked some questions along the same lines and
mentioned that they wouldn't
be answered tomorrow on
your favorite soap opera. Too
true. But there is something we
can do to supply answers to
some of the questions regarding LCC.

Atiyeh's proposal is just
that -- a proposal. It must go
through the House and Senate
before it becomes law. And
that's where we come in: Our

$1 billion American tradition
by Arthur Hoppe

for Chronicle Features Syndicate

Mr. Reagan has a good idea: "Let's buy five MX missiles for
$1 billion now," he's told Congress, "and we'll decide next year
where to put them."
Buying something and then deciding where to put it is in the
great American tradition. True, sometimes it doesn't work out
too well. My friend Stanleigh bought a car in New York back in
1977 without first renting a garage and, as far as I know, he's
still circling Washington Square.
But what usually happens in such cases is what happened
when my dear wife, Glynda, wanted to buy a grandfather clock.
"You want to buy a WHAT?" I inquired calmly. "Do you
know what those things cost? There goes the old budget.
Besides, we've got two wristwatches and four clocks around here
already. We need another like a moose needs a hat rack."
"The Willi fords have one," said Glynda. "And if they can afford it on his salary ... "
'' And where, pray tell, '' I said looking around our cluttered
apartment before asking that age-old question, "are we going to
put it?"
Glynda merely smiled. "Don't worry," she said. "I just know
we'll find a place for it."
So the clock arrived and was uncrated. And Glynda said what
purchasers usually say in such situations: "It didn't look that big
in the store," she said. "Well, let's try it where your chair is."
That was the first of at least 30 grandfather-clock ~asing
modes, Glynda enjoys many pursuits in life but none more than

To the Editor:

I was intrigued by the letters

fallacies of logic that are all
too common.
Ms. Ritzman was justifiably
angered by the additional expense incurred by shoplifters,
and yet "aided and abetted" a

is the responsibility of
everyone to report immediately any illegal act they witness.

By the time we had exhausted the floor-based options in the
living room, I was, of course). beginning to enjoy myself. "Have
you thought of hanging it on the wall over the sofa?" I suggested helpfully. That earned me a look.
''We may have to put it in the garage until some spot turns
up,'' Glynda said with a frown.
''Then we wouldn't have room for the bikes,'' I said, ''which
we have to keep in the garage so that we won't have room for the
car. What about the kitchen? There'd be plenty of space there if
we got rid of the refrigerator.''
That earned me another look. "Well, just that corner cabinet
then," I said. "We could keep the canned tuna in the clock."
But Glynda: was surveying the dining room. ''What if we put it
over there,'' she said, nodding to one end of the table.
"Why not?" I agreed. "We could still have dinner parties for
three. That's more intimate than inviting a whole couple over all
at one time."
Fortunately, Glynda had already headed for the bedroom,
tape measure in hand. I thought of proposing a horizontal basing method which would consist of sticking the clock under the
bed and dragging it out when we wanted to know the time. I
thought better of that when Glynda emerged shaking her head.
"The chimes," she said. "I forgot about the chimes."
In the end, needless to say, Glynda did find a place. So there's
a chance that Mr. Reagan's plan could work out too.

James Lawson

Construction tech instructor dies

James E. Lawson, an LCC
instructor and Cooperative
Work Experience coordinator
in Construction Technology
and Energy Management, died
of a heart attack Dec. 10 at his
Eugene home. He was 59.
In addition to his role in
education, his friends and coworkers remember Lawson as
a human rights advocate, a
civic leader, and a family man.
Lawson moved from Yellow
Springs, Ohio to join the LCC
faculty in 1975. Long-time
friend and LCC colleague Dixie Maurer-Clemons says that
at the age of 51, after raising a
family, succeeding in the construction business, local
government, and public service, Lawson and his wife
wanted to enjoy the beauty
and recreational opportunities
of the Pacific Northwest and
experience the new challenge
that vocational teaching would
bring.
In Ohio he was vice president of the Hooper Construction Company and specialized
in the building of unique
homes and buildings. One
unusual challenge was the construction of a memorial

building in a nature preserve:
Lawson supervised the work,
which required using native
stone in three circular structures, and building without the
loss of any surrounding trees.
At LCC he fostered a construction technology curriculum that gave students the
opportunity to build homes
and other structures on campus and in the community.
The first home featured active
solar collectors and passive
solar storage and ventilation
systems. Others emphasized
energy efficiency and low cost.
On campus he supervised
student construction and
refurbishing of the high school
completion,
jewelry
laboratory and CET A
buildings located to the rear of
the Apprenticeship Building,
and the small solar demonstration units on the south side
and on the roof of the Science
Building.
Before his appointment to
the LCC faculty Lawson was a
civic leader in the Yellow Springs, Ohio, and Antioch College communities. He served
for 18 years on the Yellow Springs Village Council, and as

Sexist oppression
topic of new class
by Jason Anderson

and Mike Sims
of the TORCH

''One in three women will
encounter some form of sexual
abuse during their lifetime ...
Many of these problems are
caused by society's attitudes
towards women, shaped partially through propaganda
such as pornography.''
Thus instructor Margo
Belden explains how Man's
World, Women's Place: Issues
Of Power, a new non-credit
Adult Education course, can
help solve these problems
through community education.
The course is being introduced this term through
LCC's Outreach program by
the Rape Crisis Network.
Belden, a network caseworker,
teaches the class Wednesdays
from 7 to 10 p.m. at the LCC
Downtown Center. An enrollment fee of $30 helps subsidize
the Network, a non-profit
public service.
According to the course
outline, Man's World,
Women's Place studies sexual
harassment, rape, pornography, domestic violence
and other problems. These
have been blamed for hindering women's efforts to function as equal, contributing
members of society.
Belden says, "Women's
roles in society are changing,
bringing repercussions which
seem to be geared towards
frightening women into re-

maining in their previous
social order.
''These problems must be
dealt with on a community
level.''

Review by Karla Sharr

TORCH Staff Writer

If you're looking for a good movie to spend $4 on, don't waste
it on Airplane II: The Sequel.
The screenplays for Airplane!and Airplane II were written by
two different people. No doubt those who see Airplane II will expect it to be as good or better than Airplane!
Many will be disappointed. Although some of the actors in
Airplane! were brought back to star in Airplane II , including
Robert Hayes, Peter Graves, and Julie Hagerty, the film is not as
good.
The humor is not as on-target. How many of us can relate to a
stewardess commenting that she needs a "short breather" as the
camera pans down at Fantasy Island's Herve Villechaize? Or the
captain asking for a screwdriver and in turn being handed a glass
of vodka and orange juice? Repetition was prevalent -- many of
the same joke themes were reused in Airplane II . Only the subject
was changed.
The film lacks continuity. In Airplane! the scenes flowed rather
smo~thly and the timing was great, but Airplane II is full of
episodic bits and pieces of humor that just don't fit together. One
viewer said, 'The jokes are more 'stupid' than 'funny'."
Although an honest attempt is made, the foundation of "dry
humor" achieved in Airplane is not repeated. All the jokes, plays
on words, puns, and innuendoes seem awkwardly staged. The
audience is rarely caught off guard and surprised.
In essence, the main problem of Airplane II stems from the fact
that it is following Airplane! , which is a tough act to follow.
Airplane! was funnier simply because it was a take off on Airport, and the audience weighed the humor in Airplane! against
the serious drama in Airport. Airplane II is not only a bad movie,
it's a bad idea .

It's amazing, in film, how many initially strange
character pairings turn into successful teams.
Walter Matthau and Jack Lemmon in The Odd
Couple immediately spring to mind, as do Blair
Brown and John Belushi in last year's Continental
Divide.
Eddie Murphy and Nick Nolte are no less of a
strange pair in the new film 48 HRS.

searching for escaped convicts-turned cop killers.
He enlists the help of Reggie Hammond (Murphy)
a member of the old gang to which the cop killers
belonged.
There's a catch, though: Hammond is a convict, and Cates can only spring him for 48 hours,
hence the title.
The relationship is not exactly one made in
heaven. The two are instantly at one another's
throats and never let up throughout the entire
film. Conversations like these are regular:
Cates: "Get this. We ain't partners, we ain't
brothers, we ain't friends. I'm puttin' you down
and keepin' you down until Ganz is locked up or
dead. And if Ganz gets away, you're gonna be
sorry you ever met me."
Hammond: "I'm already sorry."
And so it goes.
Murphy gives an inspired performance in his
first film role. The "Saturday Night Live" veteran,
famous for his characterizations of Velvet Jones,
Buckwheat Thomas and "Little Richard" Simmons, comes across as a tough, street-wise crook
with an inherent sense of honor and a penchant
for fine clothing and attractive women.
Murphy also injects his normally caustic demeanor into the film, subtly -- and sometimes
blatantly -- insulting Nolte, the police, authority
and society in general. "Hey, Luther," he says to
an informant after slamming a car door into his
gut, "sorry about the door, man. Did that hurt? It
looked really paint ul."
Nolte also gives a strong performance, abandoning the pretty boy/muscle man looks of The
Deep and Rich Man, Poor Man for a more aging,
realistic , portrayal. He looks, for a change,
unretouched, and plays the part of a tough yet
weary cop to the hilt.
Two things about 48 HRS. disturbed me. The
film is extraordinarily condescending and
chauvinistic toward women, relegating them to incidental, trivial, undeveloped roles. Granted,
there are no real roles in the film for women --Annette O'Toole makes a cameo as Nolte's girlfriend
-- but the dialogue and the overwhelming attitude
here toward women is one of objectivisim.
The second disturbing point is violence. A film
of this kind is nothing without a fair amount of
bloodshed, but 48 HRS. periodically spills over
into the excessive.
Like most films about strange couples, 48 HRS.
doesn't even attempt to make any kind of social
commentary. It's entertainment for entertainment's sake. And the "odd couple" of Nick Nolte
and Eddie Murphy make it work.

The Verdict is a film which deals with the reinstatement of a man into society. This
reinstatement is not the type one ordinarily expects from a film -- instead of being
from prison or exile, it is a return from the depths of depresion, from degradation.
Paul Newman portrays Frank Galvin, an alcoholic attorney who, since a fall from
grace which almost resulted in his disbarment, tries desperately to hold on to the
values that accompany the title of attorney at law.
The opening scenes volley between Galvin's drinking binges and his forays into
funeral homes trying to offer his legal services and continually being re.fused . He is
given one more crack at legitimacy by a friend and ex-associate, Mickey Morrissey
(Jack Warden), who reminds Galvin that a case Morrissey gave him almost 18 months previous is finally coming to trial.
The case is a malpractice suit involving a woman who was put into a coma by apparent medical negligence. The woman, unable to communicate because of her
condition, is being represented by her sister and brother-in-law. The hospital and
doctors named in the suit offer Galvin and his clients a generous settlement, which
he refuses. It is at this point , when everyone including his own clients want to settle,

that Frank Galvin sees the error of his ways and takes action , bringing the case to
trial.
Instead of the macho image to which we have become accustomed , director
Sidney Lumet shapes a Newman character who is weak. In a scene where Galvin is
confronted by his angry clients and is physically harassed , he backs down . Not the
Newman that we have grown accustomed to.
The film deals with how the character tries to regain his self-respect and respect
from his peers in the legal world , peers who refer to him as a slightly less than
reputable ambulance chaser who , as defense attorney Ed Concannon (James
Mason) puts it, "drinks."
The film on the whole moves a bit slowly at times, but somehow this adds to the
suspense. Paul Newman does an excellent in a role that is obviously a difficult one .
This film graphically depicts the frighting strenth of alcohol and what it can do to the
'human psyche.
The film also questions legal ethics: Just how far will attorneys go to keep intact
their reputations and the reputations of their clients?
It is this very question which spurns Galvin on in his pursuit of the truth and his
staunch refusal to settle , and causes the audience to put themselves in Galvin 's
place.
See it.

Women Titans begin season
by Lucy Hopkins
TORCH Staff Writer

The LCC women's basketball team finished its preseason games with a 6-2 won-loss
record and is now preparing for a tough
league season beginning Jan. 8 against
Chemeketa Community College in Salem.
What the women lack in height (the tallest
is 5-11) they make up in talent and team
depth, claims Head Coach Sue Thompson.
The women are balanced scorers and work
well together, she emphasizes: In a game
against Umpqua two weeks ago the leading
scorer totaled 14 points, while three bagged
10 each and two others finished with 8
apiece.
Lane's most exciting victory was over
Linn-Benton, defending league champion. It
was Coach Thompson's third victory over
the Corvallis team in her seven years of Titan
coaching.
Guard Dawn Bredesen, the only returning

The balance of the starting line-up includes former outstanding AAA high school

scorer and a good ball-handler, notes
Thompson. And Denk is the tallest of the
Lane women at 5-11 who shows great potential in playing college ball, says the coach.
Thompson rotates the fifth starter each
week from her strong roster of Sandy Rose
(5-9, freshman from The Dalles), DeAnn
Duval (5-7 freshman from Mapleton), Kelly
Franklin (5-5 sophomore from Cave Junction), and Lisa Burkhart (5-10 sophomore
from Pleasant Hill); Cheryl Timeus (Gold
Beach) and Ruth Fritz (Boise, ID) are both
injured, but expect to play this Saturday; Val
Robbins (Portlanq) will be ineligible to play
until Jan. 17.

Join the Army for two years. Because not only is
the Army one place where you'll mature in a hurry, it's a
great place to get a lot of money for college fast, too.
You see, if you participate in the Army's college
financial assistance program, the money you save for college
is matched two-for-one by the government. Then, if you
qualify, the Army will add up to $8,000 on top of that.
That's $15,200 in just two years. For more information
call your college recruiter.

Once the work of the
Legislature begins in earnest,
the hundred lawmakers in

liberal Rep. Mary McCauley
