Vol. 18, No. January 20 - .J•nna, J J6 1 1983 NIOSH studies partial ly completed by Mike Sims TORCH Associate Editor Partial results of National Institute of Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH) studies on environmental hazards -- to?(ic fumes in particular -- in LCC's Health Building have been released. According to Dean of Instruction Gerald Rasmussen, NIOSH has completed an environmental study of the Health Building, but medical studies and a full official report are not due until late February. "We have a massive amount of health records to study," says Associate Dean of Instruction Bill Porter, referring to individual health records of persons lodging medical complaints related to fumes and odors. These records must be reviewed and complainants interviewed, he says, and correlations between reported symptoms and environmental factors tied together. Rasmussen says that according to the NIOSH study -- on the basis of the tests that have been run -- ''there is no reason to believe that there is any • health hazard in the Health Building.'' But Rasmussen himself says, "That's not to say that there isn't any problem with fumes or odors.'' Copies of the NIOSH report are available to the public at the following locations: Health Occupations department office, Home Economics department office, Dunn School, 3411 Willamette St., Student Health Service and Office of Instruction. NIOSH officials and the Health Building task force made several recommendations for specific structural and procedural modifications for th~ building. Several of these have already been implemented and action on others is in the planning stages. The height of a vent stack atop the north side of the Health Building roof near LCC's laundry facilities was extended to 10 feet in December. The stack had previously extended horizontally from the roof, but in April it was modified to extend upward, per NIOSH recommendations. NIOSH has also recommended removal of an outside air intake from its current location near the laundry to a site near the tennis courts. This .. Proposal, currently in a design phase, would reduce the possibility airborne cont am in ants entering the building's vent system. Rasmussen says that an administrative recommendation on whether or not to proceed with the project will be made later this month. If the administration approves the project, the LCC Board of Education will take action on the proposal Feb. 9. Meanwhile, all gasoline and diesel motor vehicles have been prohibited from the laundry area save for a garbage truck which arrives at around 7:30 a.m. daily. The use of a liquid laundry detergent which contained a "considerable" amount of kerosene has been discontinued and a non-kerosenebased detergent substituted. Some persons had claimed a kerosene odor was present in the breezeway and outside the building. Per NIOSH recommendations, oily rags and mops are now being laundered off campus. It was speculated that the laundering of these items contributed to the fume and odor problem. With the NIOSH studies partially complete, former occupants of the Health Building who left last fall because of the potential health hazards have begun to consider returning. According to Child Development Center (CDC) head teacher Marci Temple, the CDC will probably return to the LCC main campus at the end of February. The CDC was moved to the former Dunn School building late in October after staff, parents and the children themselves complained of physical maladies possibly related to the presence of fumes and odors. Temple and other CDC personnel will meet with parents of CDC students in an information and discussion session about the move Jan. 26 at noon in the Administration Building boardroom. Meanwhile, Health Occupations and Home Economics staff members who had been using temporary work facilities in the Administration Building on a rotating basis since October have gradually begun returning to the Health Building. -C onflict continues over ROTC on _ LCC campus by Mike Sims TORCH Associate Editor ''We've in effect decided to start over,'' said LCC Dean of Instruction Gerald Rasmussen, referring to administrative handling of the ongoing controversy centered around the proposed teaching of six lower division Military Science courses at LCC. The Military Science course proposal, made last spring by ,, the University of Oregon Reserve Officer Training Corps (ROTC) program is currently in limbo. The LCC Board of Education voted in July to table it. _Speculation that it may soon be untabled has caused several concerned campus groups to begin reorganizing, either in support of or against the proposal. '' Rather than separate activities, we'd like to pool (LCC) resources into a consortium of opinion,'' Rasmussen . • Can LCC's night classes meet the needs of associatedegree seeking students? See story, page 4. told the TORCH Jan. 18 when he announced formation of an ''ROTC committee'' consisting of student, faculty and management representatives. According to Rasmussen, the committee will be charged with ''creating a process for useful discussion of whether or not ROTC should be brought to the LCC campus.'' Members will discuss the ROTC issue and make decisions regarding any possible open forum or series of information sessions. The committee will hold an initial formative meeting at an undetermined date and time in the near future, according to Rasmussen. Rasmussen has asked ASLCC Pres.

Page 2 January 20 -•, 1983 The TORCH FREE FOR ALL ROTC: Student input is imperative by Jeff Keating TORCH Edltor It's time once again to confront an issue over which there seems to be an astonishing amount of cont rover sy at LCC: The Reserve Officers Training Corps, or ROTC, course offerings. "Ah hah!" say you. "I have indeed heard of this issue, and of the ASLCC's opposition to ROTC courses on this campus.,, You may have also gleaned, from information presented during board meetings, at ASLCC Senate meetings and in this newspaper, that the ROTC issue was of concern last year and was tabled as a proposal by the board last summer. Well, that proposal might be back. And now's the time to look at the pros and cons of the issue and weigh what antiROTC forces call ''military intrusion into the schools" versus what pro-ROTC minions call "academic freedom." There's two valid sides First the anti-ROTC look. There are those, including our own student government, who say that ROTC at Lane would not be a good thing. ROTC clas~es are available at the University of Oregon for those who want to take them, they say, so why have them here? They also cite an ''unnecessary presence of the military on campus" as a negative factor in the issue. Those opposed to ROTC also note that insufficient interest in a ROTC program Letters FICA woes will affect us all To the Editor If you think the problems with Social Security are going to disappear then you had better think again. Current fiscal problems are just the beginning. According to U.S. News and World Report, "lower birth rates are expected to shrink the number of workers under Social Security, forcing them to pay astronomically high taxes if the system is to remain self-financed." (Nov. 8, 1982). Those currrently receiving checks have little to worry about (except those healthy enough to last until the turn of the century) but people my age (I'm now 20) certainly do. When those now in their early thirties start . retiririg there will be one recipient for every two workers! When the· system was established there were sixteen workers to every one, recipient. Oh well, perhaps the national birth rate will irtcrease but since it' s now at a low level of 1. 7 it will take a lot of doing to make up fpr the past decade of sub-replacement levels . Of course those who raise families at least will have so- . meone to rely upon if worse comes to worse but \\'ho is going to care for those who want to retire yet have nobody to rely upon except the government? Think about it because that's a major question my generation will be faced with in just a matter of years. Eric A. Stillwell 1151 W. 27th Place Eugene, OR 97405 For-death penalty To the Editor: A lot of ~yths exist concerning the death penalty, and since Governor Atiyeh favors its reinstatement in Orego~, I'd like to cover several points: Myth number 1: Capital punishment doesn't prevent crime. · : Faco There is a high rate of recidivism (return to violent makes such a program invalid. There are many classes that are not offered here, they say, because probable low enrollment would not make the establishment of such classes worthwhile. Their question: Why make ROTC an exception to that unwritten rule? And then there is the proROTC side, which makes at least as many valid points. Those in favor of ROTC say a proposal rejected out of hand without sufficient study is not a proposal at all. Rather, they claim, it is a mockery of the accessibility to classes to which a student is supposedly _entitled. Pro-ROTCers also note the single-mindedness with which anti-ROTC forces reject course offerings. How, they say, can a truly liberal-minded person claim that they support an open curriculum yet come down so hard on a ROTC pro- crime) among paroled murderers. If these convicted murderers were given the death penalty there would be no chance for them to hurt anyone else. For instance, Gary Gillmore, after being executed several years ago, certainly hasn't killed anybody else. Myth 2: The death penalty is cruel and unusual punishment and therefore unconstitutional. Fact: Before, during and after the Eighth Amendment was adopted in 1791, execution for murder was common. In Gregg vs. Georgia, 428v .5 153 (1976) the Supreme Court, through Justice Stewart, wrote, "We now hold that the punishment of death does not invariably violate the Con-stitution. . . '' He further stated, "The impositon of the -death penalty for the crime of murder has a long history of acceptance .both in the United States and in England. .. . '' Myth 3: The death penalty is a ritual which merely serves to satisfy •"barbaric" lusts for vengeance. Fact: The primary purpose posal which might open more doors for students? A wishy-washy mess? I can find at least one argument on both sides which outshines the others. The antiROTC argument which claims sufficient student interest has not been shown is valid. There are many classes that are not offered here because of probable low enrollment, yet many people wish to take these classes. ROTC shouldn't be an exception. The most valid pro-ROTC argument falls along the same lines: How can a proposal rejected out of hand be considered a proposal that underwent fair treatment by the student government and the Board of Education? There were no studies made on campus -- other than informal ef- the death penalty served throughout history was to eliminate murderous elements and to protect .innocent citizens. Isn't it better to execute 100 murderers if there is even the slightest chance it could protect just one innocent person's life in the future? That's certainly more than sufficient justification in my opinion. Let's stop freeing murderers and, instead, give them the punishment they deserve. It's more civilized to maintain capital punishment than to allow murderers the chance to prey on society again.

On these grounds, an ROTC program shouldn't be immediately rejected. So where do we stand? '' Ah, we know where you stand, Keating,'' you say. "You're as wishy-washy as all get-out." And, partially, you'd be right. But what I think of the ROTC issue personally is of no relevance whatsoever. What is important is how the issue affects this campus. Input, input, input And so, once again, it's the entire student population that figures into this thing.

The TORCH January 20 - Ji,, 1983 Page 3 Forum ASLCC takes wrong stand on ROTC Editor's note: Mr. Munion 's forum reflects only his opinions and do not necessarily reflect the opinions of the TORCH staff, editorial board or advisers. by Ron Munion ASLCC Treasurer Lane Community College is at a' crossroads. Will we repeat the mistakes of the past, or will we proceed into the future? This is the question surrounding the establishment of a Reserve Officer Training Corps (ROTC) program on the campus of LCC. Instruction would be provided without charge to the college by members of the Army ROTC faculty at the University of Oregon. Lt. Col. Steven Wolfgram had asked that LCC add the military science package (Land Navigation, Preventative Medicine, First Aid, Military Skills, Rifle Company and Dunn Kempf) so that LCC students interested in ROTC could transfer into the U of O's program. All of these classes would be open to any member of LCC without a commitment to join ROTC. When the student government (ASLCC) heard the ROTC question was to be raised at LCC, the ASLCC Senate formed a committee to oppo~e it. '' A motion was made by Mike Sussman and seconded by Laura Powell that the ASLCC reaffirm its position against the establishment of an ROTC program on the campus of LCC. That a committee be formed comprised of students, faculty and Senate members to coordinate activites necessary to stop the establishment of ROTC on campus. And that $250 be allocated to that committee for expenses as needed." 1/10/83 ASLCC Senate Meeting Minutes. With this action, the ASLCC Senate made what I consider to be a major mistake: It gave $250 to a group of students whose goal is depriving other students of academic freedom. Monies that are taken from students through student fees should not be used for blatant political objectives, especially when these objectives will deprive some students of financial support. Student government should serve all the. students, while at the same time helping those who are in need now. Public monies (student fees) shouldn't be used for selfcentered political ends. This is an improper use of student fees. Also, it may be in violation of the law. At this point, it is important to know who I am and where I'm coming from. My name is Ron Munion, and I'm your student body treasurer. This is my second year on the ASLCC Senate. I'm strongly for the ROTC program, but my reasoning is not pro-military; my reasoning for support is based on academic freedom. The ROTC protesters are trying to restrict the freedom of choice of students who believe in an alternate life style. People who suposedly believe strongly in minority rights and freedom of choice want to restrict the right of a minority to choose ROTC. People who are against ROTC say they are for academic freedom, but their actions show they are for academic freedom for themselves but not for others who disagree with them. This is wrong. It is very hard to believe that anyone who believes in freedom and the right to choose would restrict the rights of others. Any liberal-minded person who strongly disagrees with the military would hold their nose about ROTC but allow others to choose as they wish without interference. LCC is a learning community where a diverse group of thoughts exist. LCC is not a place to restrict the academic freedom of any thought including military teachings. It looks like the ROTC protesters are trying to Capitol Hill decision -making is as simple as ABC. . . • by Arthur Hoppe for Chronicle Features Syndicate I have been asked to illustrate how the decision-making process works in the present administration. I would be glad to. Architect of the ingenious system is Ruben J. (Rube) Goldberg, whose top-secret nerve center is located deep within the bowels of the White House. . Mr. Goldberg initiates the operation by opening valve (A) which causes leak to sober up reporter (B) who writes story (C) headlined: "President Unalterably Opposed to Tax (D) on Elderly Orphans." Newspaper (E) lands with thud on doorstep of Presidential Adviser Ed Meese (F), who stubs toe .(G) retrieving it. Meese calls ambulance (H) which is chased by White House aide_s James Baker (I), who is a lawyer, and Michael Deaver (J), who just enjoys chasing ambulances (Hs). All three (F, H, and I) agree (1) that Meese's toe (G) will recover; (2) that the tax (D) is a great idea because elderly orphans are the forgotten Americans, taxwise; (3) that proposing it to the president would sound disloyal; and (4) it would be better to go behind his back instead and send it to Capitol Hill be elderly messenger (K) on bicycle (L). At the Senate, messenger (K) rides bicycle (L) over tail of cat (M), which leaps to chandelier (N), causing chandelier to fall on Senator Helms' cigar (0), thus setting Senate on fire.

'' Needless to say, the president (Z) gladly signs and immediately goes back to work (ZZZZZZ). And that's how the present administration decided to support the Golden Years Enhancement User Fee Bill (D).

Instead, he is devoting full time to devising a basing system for the MX missile. dictate according to their own beliefs what can and cannot be taught at LCC. I feel these actions are highly improper. It is outrageous that such a philosophy can fester and grow in a climate of free thought and learning. If only 20 percent of students answered a questi.unnaire saying they supported establishment of ROTC on campus, I would still suport ROTC. As long as there are students who wish to enroll in ROTC, I feel they should have that right. They shouldn't be harassed by a perceived majority (which I doubt exists). This question was best summarized by George Alvergue, a social science instructor, who said at the June 9 Board of Education meeting that it is an issue of academic freedom. "If we deny ROTC today, what will we deny tomorrow?'' he asked the Board. In the coming weeks, we will be saturated by statements to the effect that the cost to the college would be fifty to seventy thousand dollars. These figures will not hold up under close scrutiny by impartial parties. These arguments can only be described as a smoke-screen. The center of the argument is anti-military in nature. This fact was admitted by Paquita Garatea, ASLCC President. When asked if the committee to stop ROTC was using the economical argument to hide its true reason for opposition (anti-military), Paquita stated her reason was anti-military. ASLCC should not have taken a stand on an issue that will divide the student body and the ASLCC can't justify spending student fees to support an oppressive philosophy. The freedom of thought and the right to learn is a right the majority not the minority can restrict.

Page 4 January 20 - •, 1983 The TORCH c-lass limitations irk night students by Jeff Keating TORCH Editor (Editor's note: This is the first in a three-part series of stories on LCC at night.) They are the oft-forgotten members of the LCC community. Working, caring for .children or attending even more classes at Lane or the U of O through the day, they are the reasons behind extended cafeteria, library and counseling hours. They comprise roughly one-third of the total LCC enrollment each term. They are the night students. And many of them have a complaint they want the administration to hear: They can't complete two-year programs going to school only at night, as they were promised. A matter of courses . .. The issue turns on course availability. Almost all of the students who have complaints say the classes they need aren't offered at night or have been discontinued altogether. Mike Pattie, an LCC night student since 1981, says it comes down to fairness. ''You should be able to finish a program in two years here at night,'' he says. Working to support his wife and four children through the day, Pattie says his interest in the criminal justice program originally brought him to Lane but ''the courses I need just aren't he;e anymore at night and haven't been for the last few terms. I don't know if it's the budget or whatever," he adds, "but I'm spinning my wheels now.'' When he originally enrolled, Pattie says, enough different courses were offered at night to allow him to earn an associate degree in criminal justice after two years of night work. Now he finds himself facing some disturbing realities. "I had hoped to do the two years and finish up at the U of 0, save myself some money," he says. "Now I don't know what's going to happen. I had always thought this school was designed for people like me, people with families,'' he says pensively. "Now I'm not as sure as I was." Karen and Beth -- a pair of students who have asked not to be identified by their real names for personal reasons -- concur with Pattie. Both claim that LCC doesn't have enough night classes, and although both recognize that instructors and funds are limited, "they should have a sequence (of classes) in the programs so people can finish or catch up," says Beth. Both are attempting to work their way through school and obtain degrees in health-related fields. And though both can plan their part-time work schedules around major daytime classes, they say more diverse courses should be offered at night . justice program and other ''incomplete'' night programs, echo . his feelings, and most add that Lane's initial attractiveness is its low cost compared to the U of 0. Most of them can't afford the hike in tuition a move to the university would bring, and face changing their majors or not attending school at all. And so the story goes Is there a significant lack of LCC nighttime course offerings for complete programs? If so, how many students, in real numbers, are affected? Are there viable alternatives to night classes that can be exercised with a minimum number of sacrifices on both sides, or is a reevaulation of the entire night program in order? . . .and money, too Another major factor in the night school issue is money. Working people are attracted to LCC not only for its two-year programs but because of its financial accessibility. Mike Pattie attends school on the GI Bill of Rights, and says that the lack of course offerings is not only causing him to debate a change in his major but is also ''taking money from my GI funds," he says. "If they (programs) are unattainable or lengthy, my money's reduced." Other students, in Pattie's criminal The second installment in this series will explore the administrative and instructional points of view on all of these questions. The second part will also allow those determining night courses to give their side of what seems to be a growing problem on LCC's nighttime campus. Retarded adults ·working at Downtown Center Deli by Emmanuel Okpere TORCH Staff Writer Mentally retarded adults help take customer orders and prepare food at the LCC Downtown Center Delicatessen. ''Our aim is to get things done very well, even better than what other restaurants do," says Work Activity Center aide Evelyn Anderton. Anderton is in charge of training the 28 retarded persons who work in the deli. "It takes about four people to do what a normal person would do,'' says Anderton. ''But we stress that they do everything very well. People are always surprised with what they get." Initially it took the clients three to four minutes to take an order and eight to ten minutes to make a sandwich. But their work speed has increased. The deli serves coffee and donuts between 9:30 and 10:30 a.m. and lunch -- soup, salad and sandwiches -- between 11:30 a.m. and 1:30 p.m. Deli employees also serve coffee and donuts at faculty, department and group meetings. "In the beginning it was difficult for people to come in and eat,'' Anderton says. ''They never expected us to produce a high quality of food.'' Anderton says the Work Activity Center applied for a grant three years ago through the LCC Special Training Department in hopes of helping students learn to make money for themselves. Special Training students also operate a day care center, recycle newspapers, affix labels for the Neighboring News (45,000 last month) and perform some chores for the Hult Center for the Performing Arts.

Included is a scheduled Feb. 10 presentation to the LCC Instructional Senate by Lt. Col. Steve Wolfgram, University of Oregon Reserve Officer Training Corps (ROTC) instructor. Wolfgram was to repeat an April 1982 presentation of the Military Science course proposal which he made to the LCC Curriculum Committee. An ASLCC-sponsored com- mittee dedicated to fighting the ROTC proposal went ahead with a planned Jan. 19 public meeting. ASLCC Communications Director Laura Powell explained, ''The ROTC issue has been given priority within the ASLCC. We do not intend to drop our involvement with the issue." Powell said that a primary goal of the committee will be to convince the Instructional Senate to vote ''no endorsement" on the ROTC proposal. She also stated that this goal is not shared by all members of the ASLCC Senate. ''This (ROTC) issue is causing much polarization within the Senate which is unfortunate," Powell said. "But the Senate, like LCC itself, is made up of students representing totally different viewpoints.''

She further asserts that this lack of knowledge hinders former prison inmates on their path back into society. Paulson is vice-chairperson of the board of directors of Sponsors, Inc., a Eugene-based non-profit organization. Formed a decade ago, Sponsors helps former prisoners make the sometimes rocky adjustment from prison life to life in society. Sponsors was founded in the fall of 1973 by Sr. Janis Jackson, a Roman Catholic nun with an interest in assisting prisoners making such a transition. Jackson's method: Training Lane County residents to be sponsors for persons emerging from prison. Sponsors Inc. focuses on helping men without families from the Oregon State Correctional Institution in Salem. However, women and inmates from the State Penitentiary have also been aided. Paulson says that "hundreds" have volunteered their services. Sponsors program participants begin their part in the adjustment process before the inmate's release date. They visit the inmate in prison to give moral, social and emotional support. This support continues after the inmate's release for as long as necessary. Individual sponsors do not provide housing or financial support to newly-released prisoners. Sponsors Inc. does try to assist in these areas as well as with securing employment, clothing, counseling, etc. Paulson's official duties as a Sponsors, Inc., executive include helping to make policy decisions regarding finances and other aspects of the organization. But she, along with Sponsors' many other volunteers, also works with former inmates on a more down-to-earth level. She finds this interaction rewarding. ''The needs of these people are great," she explains. '' And although not all of these needs can be met, you can do something for them and find it extremely worthwhile.'' Paulson asserts that public education and participation in programs such as Sponsors, Inc., are essential to aid in the metamorphosis from prisoner to citizen. Toward this end, Sponsors Inc. holds a Thursday evening series of public information sessions on the justice and penal systems. All sessions are held at the Central Presbyterian Church, 1475 Ferry St., at 7:30 p.m. For more information call Evelyn Gerardo at 485-8341 or 345-9964. An excerpt from a recent Paulson magazine article summarizes, '' ... understanding the problems a released prisoner faces .. .is an expertise you can use· to help preserve (the exprisoner's pride and dignity) ...

Hood by Emmanuel Okpere TORCH Staff Writer Playing as they never had before, LCC's men's basketball team dropped a 67-66 decision to 1982 OCCAA co-champion Mt. Hood at the LCC gym Satur, day night. _ Up until a controversial call by one of the officials in the final seconds of the decisive second half, the men were ahead with two points and on their way to an upset. The Titans, who led with by as many as four points in the second half, also led 30-29 at the end of the first stanza. The team shot 53 percent from the floor and 73 percent from the foul line. They were outrebounded 29 to 24 and turned the ball over 11 times versus 16 Saint miscues. Matt Bodine, who came out hot in the second stanza, scored a total of 23 points for the night. Other high scorers for the Titans were Darren Rice with 18 points, Stanley Walker with_ 11, and co-captain Michael Cooper with 10. Marc Canter, in foul trouble all night, also managed four points. Darren Rice and Mike Cooper put in remarkable performances, scoring 18 and 14 points respectively in a 51-49 win over the Timberwolves of Blue Mountain CC last Friday evening. Mark Ganter also had a strong outing, scoring 14 points, 12 from the floor. Though the Titans shot just 43 percent from the floor and 68 percent from the foul line, they proved too much for the Timberwolves~ who had a hard time checking the Titans' zone play. It was another double-header treat last night when the men and women Titans took the court against their counterparts from Umpqua CC. Results were not available before presstime. Women vvin one, lose one by Lucy Hopkins TORCH Staff Writer ''We dominated Blue Mountain early,'' says Coach Sue Thompson of Friday night's (Jan. 14) contest between the LCC and Blue Mountain Community College women cagers. Dawn Bredesen led the scoring with a hefty 21 point contribution that helped bring the final score to 65-55, with Lane the victor. But on Saturday night it was a different story. LCC fell behind early in the game and was down by 13 points at the half. . The Titans surged after the break, outscoring Mt. Hood 15 to 6 in the first seven minutes. Still, it wasn't enough to pull-off the victory as Lane and Mt. Hood traded buckets for the balance of the clocktime -- with PHOTOS by GARY BREEDLOVE MHCC taking the Titans by a 60-55 final edge. Coach Thompson said she was ''really pleased with the come-back effort" the women demonstrated. Yet she cites two problems that held the team back. Fouls: Two LCC players fouled out. Free-throws: The team shot 36 percent of its charity shots against Mt. Hood, although it had completed 46 percent against Blue Mountain the night before. Thompson applauds Sam Prentice's 11 rebounds in Friday's contest, and her 13 Saturday. She mentions Cheryl Timeus' efforts on Saturday evening as well Leading scorers against Mt. Hood were Camee Pupke with 14, and Dawn Bredesen with 13. Timeus . finished with 8, Kelly Franklin and Prentice each with 6. Lane will go head-to-head with Southwestern Oregon Community College in Coos Bay Jan. 29. _,,,./ Page 8 January 20 -•, 1983 The TORCH ENTERTAINMENT Tootsie: A comedy extraordinaire Review by Jeff Keating TORCH Editor A refreshing -- albeit somewhat offbeat -- look at emotional growth, acting success and the world of daytime soap operas is present in the form of a film playing in Eugene/Springfield area theaters. And if a combination of the three subjects above seems like an exercise in confusion, that's a misconception: Tootsie is actually an exercise in good taste, good comedy, and good fun. Tootsie stars Dustin Hoffman as Michael Dorsey, a demanding, out-of-work actor training a young actress. When his pupil tries out for a soap opera and is turned down before she auditions, Dorsey decks himself out as a woman, auditions for the part -- as "Dorothy Michaels" -- and lands the part. And so tlie out-of-work, noname actor finally lands a job and gets a name -- only it's not his own. The whole scenario is complicated by Dorsey's roommate (Bill Murray), close friend (Teri Garr) and love interest, the soap's leading lady (Jessica Lange). To add to his problems, Dorsey must perpetually be in costume, wary of close looks, tight camera shots, and horny producers and directors who know ''him'' only as a woman. Although the plot may seem somewhat farfetched, the writers -- Larry Gelbart (MASH) and Murray Schisgal -- make it believable enough to get their point across: People, no matter how you dress them up or what you call them, are, in the final analysis, just people. And they all have different points 'of view. Tootsie attempts to thoroughly explore a modern woman's point of view. A social commentary But the film goes far beyond simple empathy for, and recognition of, the female perspective. Rather, it becomes a' study of society through the eyes of a rare commodity: Man turned woman, but only to the extent that man must look like woman and act like woman. With that task at hand and his career at stake, Michael Dorsey must make some radical changes to avoid giving himself away. And that's where Tootsie makes its first point about accepted societal attitudes. Even with the comparatively great strides we have made in the last decade with regard to equal rights, Tootsie says, we -- and especially men -- are still perpetuating the division of the sexes with our sometimes inbred, often acquired attitudes and beliefs. For example, Michael Dorsey could never get a job as himself -- he was too brazen, too rude, too demanding. But brazen, rude and demanding are traits that are still too often expected of STUDENT HEALTH SERVICES 'Help For What Ails You' No charge for: Office visit with nurse or doctor Health counseling Allergy shots Vision and hearing screening Nutrition counseling First aid Emergency dental care Sma II fee for: Women ·s an'nua1 gyn exam ($10) Athletic physical ($15) Pre-employment physical ($15) Lab·work (cost varies) Located oft snack bar end of cafeteria Open 8-4 M-H, 8~ 12 F All LCC credit, ABE and HSC students eligible ''Try Us! -You'll Like Us'' Photo courtesy Columbia Pictures Inc. Dustin Hoffman (out of drag) and director Sydney Pollack confer on the Tootsie set inen, the film says. Had Dorsey attempted to land the soap opera role as himself dressed as a woman -- without going through a very basic, yet radical, personal change -- he could never had landed the part. Even if he had been a convincing-looking woman, he couldn't have pulled it off: A woman wouldn't be as rude or demanding. It's what our society's dictated to us, right? And what Tootsie tells us is that the change from what our society "dictates" has been, and still is, much too slow in coming. Tootsie also illustrates a more personal and equally common problem -- sexual harassment. From the male star of "Southwest General" (George Gaynes) to the leading lady's father (Charles Durn- ing), Dorothy Michaels must perpetually stave off sexual advances in and away from the workplace. Even her repeated denials of interest are to no avail, and although the film treats such incidents with a lighthearted flair, the underlying social commentary cannot be ignored in favor of the surface amusement. The performances What really puts Tootsie's many messages across are the sterling performances. Even if one glosses over the social statements the film makes, Dustin Hoffman must be seen to be believed. He's that good. It would have been easy for Hoffman, the 1979 Best Actor recipient for Kramer vs. Kramer, to simply accept roles CAMPUS MINISTRY Bible Discussion: Kathy Weiderholt Math/Art 240, wed. 12-1 Prayer Group: John Kellog Apr. 212, Tues. 11 :30 - 12:30 Faith Center: Dan Johnson Health 276, Tues. 12 - 1pm. :· ======~::::::::::~::::::~:::::. ·:s:;:::::;:~~;~t>iiw~::--=:- ~:~~::~=====~A·::=~~::r:;~: ;;JW4>:•:: %)\~::::::::::::::::::~~~=:::::::::-:N~::: •.::-\~:;:~:?\t½:<0/SX>:~~;:~~~'<'f\r: 1:'t : ;=~=~~~..f=: .:•:t\ THOUGHT FOR THE WEEK: "You will do foolish things, but do them with enthusiasm.

He grabbed a role that would either be an astonishing success or a miserable flop and guaranteed a box-office and critical hit with his efforts. Jessica Larige, an underrated actress whose previous roles have established her as a comedienne (How to Beat the High Cost of Living), a "heavy" (All That Jazz) and a desperate, love-starved woman ( The Postman A !ways Rings Twice), is quite good as Julie Nichols, the soap's leading lady. She blends strong comedic timing with a sort of wistfulness usually reserved for more recognizable actresses._ . Kudos to the director, too. Sydney Pollack has taken a barely believable plot, a recognized superstar and a stagnant social problem and shaped them into the finest film of the year and one of the best in the last decade.

The TORCH January 20 - 41: ,1983 Page 9 Art students finalists in logo contest by Karla Sharr TORCH Staff Writer LCC Graphic Design students Deb Melhase and Hirofumi Yanamoto have had their work chosen as finalists in the Oregon Nutrition Council logo design contest. According to art instructor Bets Cole, the contest included only students in her Graphic Design class. The winning design will be accepted by the Oregon Nutrition Council as their advertising logo for brochures and other types of literature. Health instructor Beth Naylor is involved with the Nutrition Council and will assist in making the final decision of which logo to employ. Yanamoto, a native of Japan, is a second-year LCC student. He previously visited the US in 1970 as a high scnool exchange student and graduated from the State University of New York with a Bachelor's Degree in Studio Art. While at SUNY he also completed the school's premedicine curriculum. Yanamoto finds, however, that he prefers living on the West Coast rather than the eastern US. Yanamoto commented that he liked the "fast busy pace" • •• Runner-up Deb Melhase and her artwork in Cole's class, explaining, "I tend to be lazy unless working under pressure.'' Yanamoto's interests in medicine and his talents in art and visual design have induced him to pursue a career in medical illustration -- texts, advertising, etc. At LCC he is enrolled in classes in airbrush, watercolor and publication design. He also works in the Lane County Courthouse print shop through the Supervised Field Experience program. During fall term Yanamoto worked at KVAL-TV and designed station identification illustrations for the Christmas season .. by Will Doolittle It may seem like a long way to come: From Japan to the United States to star in a play by a Frenchman that takes place in medieval Em-ope. But in the last six months Haruko Azuma has merely come full circle -- in two ways. She has returned to see her "homeland," America, which she last saw at the age of three, when her parents were studying at the University of Illinois. Azuma is also fulfilling a dream -- once postponed -- of pursuing a career on the stage. Azuma plays the title role in the romantic fantasy Ondine, by Jean Giraudoux, to be staged January 27, 28, 29 and February 3, 4, and 5 at LCC. She is an ondine, a .mythical water spirit who, says Azuma, "can exist but can't survive" in world of humans because of her pure, courageous, straightforward nature. Tragically, though, th~ lure of love forces her to attempt the impossible. She falls in love with Hans, a fickle young knight, played by Brian McCarthy; they both suffer the consequences. Through her high school years Azuma wanted to be an actress, and after graduating she entered professional acting school. But three years ago a back injury threw her plans off course. From two years of difficult rehabilitation she Melhase, the co-runner up in the logo design contest, is a second-year student from Redmond. Her career plans include working for an advertising agency and then going into freelance design work. Yanamoto's hobbies include drawing and painting. He said, "I enjoy my work Unlike Yanamoto, Melhase is fairly new at what she is doing. Melhase said, "I was very emerged a changed person. "I became more adult," Azuma said, and recognized what she calls the conservative nature of acting in Japan. Along with her maturing viewpoint, though, came a loss of self-confidence in her ability as an actress. When she came to LCC six months ago Azuma had little expectation that she would even be in a play, much less carry a major role. But the day she saw the notice for auditions for Ondine she ''was quite free. Today,'' she told herself, "that's my excitement!" Although she noted that Ondine was "supposed to .be blond (in the) Middle Ages of Europe,'' she asked director David Johnston if there might be a role for an Asian woman. Johnston encouraged her to audition, and she was pleasantly surprised when he offered her the title role. Johnston says he chose Azuma for the role because .poetic , her "intrinsic. qualities'' seemed to match the character. He warned her that it would be hard work, as she would not only have an intense rehearsal schedule, but also need extra language practice. " 'I know it sounds presumptuous,' '' he remembers her saying, '' 'But yes.' '' And hard work it has been. The cast of Ondine has been averaging 24 hours a week in rehearsal to bring to life this romantic, magical drama. because it has the 'quality of play','' explaining that his work was so closely related to his play. Yanamoto also finds time in his busy schedule to see movies and play chess. Dr. Gary M. Stewart, an ophthalmologist at Sacred Heart Hospital, is legal sponsor for Yanamoto's schooling. On occasion Yanamoto works for Dr. Stewart, doing graphic work. Star comes 'full circle' to act in LCC's Ondine TORCH Staff Writer Hirofumi Yanamoto and his co-nominated logo design surprised to hear that I made the finals in the logo contest.'' She added that "everyone in the class did a wonderful job." . Melhase admits to being very busy in the Graphic Design department and rarely has time to pursue her many hobbies. In her spare time she enjoys basket weaving and training her two dogs. Melhase is unsure of where she will obtain her bachelor's degree, but is · considering Eastern Oregon State College in La Grande. Disabled to tour Africa by Emmanuel Okpere TORCH Staff Writer A group of disabled people will ·leave the United States on a tour of African countries in August. April Carney, a disabled LCC student who works _as a resource specialist with Mobility International USA, is coordinating the trip. Mobility International, a non-profit organization headquartered in London, promotes travel for the disabled. It is the only mobility organization in the US. According to Carney, the organization was founded last year by · Susan Sygall. ''Sygall was in London on an international educational exchange when she visited the (Mobility International) office in London," says Carney. "She decided there and then to set up an office here.'' Carney says Mobility International has offices in 25 countries worldwide. These offices exchange information to help the disabled traveling in and out of their countries. "We also get information from the American Field Service, the US Information Department and the International Christian Youth Exchange offices," Carney says. She disclosed that the organization is trying to organize an international work camp for this coming summer. "If we succeed, it will be either held at Cottage Grove or Coos Bay and it will consist of 20 people from 20 countries." The Eugene office of Mobility International USA is located at 132 E. Broadway.

Page 10 January 20 - 8; 1983 The TORCH SPO RT S -Track team may be 'best yet' by Kevin Morris TORCH Staff Writer Coach Harland Yriarte believes the 1983 LCC men's track team migh~ be his best yet. However enthusiastic Yriarte may be, he isn't ''totally convinced'' and adds, ''On paper we're tough as hell, but paper is one thing -- tartan's another." Yriarte will get a glimpse of the team's strength Jan. 29 at the Eugene Indoor Track Meet. The meet will be held in the Arena Building at the Lane County Fairgrounds. Best Recruits Ever To complement returnee Nate Morris, defending Region 18 champion in the steeplechase, Yriarte has added what he calls "good balance in all events." LCC's roster thus far reads like a Who's Who in Oregon high school track, not to mention some out-of-state talent as well. To name a few: Bob George was a three-time state AA champ in the javelin while at Pleasant Hill HS. Marty Beauchamp was a two-time New York state cross-country champion. Craig Loper was Indiana's prep state champ in the high hurdles with a time of 13.9, and Tyler McAllister (Bend) was Oregon's 1982 AAA high jump champion with a personal best of 7'00". Yriarte feels LCC has "one of the better (junior college teams) in the nation." But while he won't be able to prove it (due to the new Oregon community college policy to forego post season national competition), Yriarte plans on proving the Titans' superiority to the teams he will face this season. Topping the list is Clackamas CC.
