Lane Commun ity College Vol. 19 No. 2 September 29 - Q I L 'The Pacesetter of Oregon College Newspapers' f, 1983 Mann says he'll sue colleQe over election dispute by Chris Gann TORCH E.ditor "I'm taking the Board to court," says Larry Mann, unsuccessful presidential candidate in last spring's ASLCC elections. His comment on Sept. 14 came after the LCC Board of Education reviewed and confirmed the College Hearings Committees' findings and recommendations on last spring' s student body election procedures. The official Board review was the result of controversy over student elections held last May. After the election, a group of students filed I 0 complaints with the ASLCC Elections Commission. The ASLCC Judiciary Committee ruled that two of the ten grievances were valid, but recommended no repolling of the student body or other punitive action -- action that had been requested by the complainants. In June, Mann, former treasurer candidate Bob Baldwin, and other complainants took their case to the College Complaint Hearings Committee. That committee found that ''violations occurred on both sides of the issue. No evidence was presented, however, which established that any or all of the violations did, in fact, change the final outcome of the election.'' The Complaint Hearings Committee also declined to recommend a repolling of the student body. In August, unsatisfied with the findings and recommendations of both committees, Mann filed an appeal for • Board of Education review. After the Board action Mann said he was still unsatisfied with the results of the case. He says he will pursue the case: "I'm taking the Board to court.'' • All financial aid recipients must now comply with Selective Service regulations. See story, page 3.

Ford Motor Company' s 'Better Idea' sends engines, parts, tools to LCC shops by Chris Gann TORCH E.ditor When he attended a 7 a.m. meeting in St. Louis, all LCC Associate Dean Jim Piercy expected was a free breakfast and an inexpensive water pitcher decorated with the Ford l\1otor Company insignia. Instead, Piercy' s attendance at the Ford breakfast has resulted in LCC being named a Ford Motor Company training site. And ''Christmas packages" of Ford engines, training manuals, technical data on microfiche, a microfiche reader and tools that total well over $10,000 have arrived at the college over the summer. Piercy, says the Fordsponsored breakfast meeting was part of the American Vocational Association conference he attended last December. During the meal Counseling • The department offers a variety of services to students. Page 4 has a complete listing. Ford Motor Company executives talked about their company's interest in expanding their parts and service training programs by selecting community colleges as training sites. According to Piercy, the Ford plan was to rent a college classroom on Saturdays and send their local Ford parts and service personnel to training sessions at the regional sites. After the meeting, Piercy says he told the Ford executives that LCC would be interested in becoming a training site, and that he would send them information on the college. In March, Piercy received a call from a Ford training executive who informed him LCC had been chosen as a training site. Although Piercy says he was pleased, all he and the ~chanics Department staff On The Inside • KLCC is preparing its second annual Jazz Fun Run.

But in June, ''We got an engine just out of the clear blue sky," says Piercy. A few weeks later, another engine arrived. Paul Wellborn, lead instructor of the second year auto mechanics program, says that each engine is worth $15 00 or more. During the summer weeks, Piercy says the mechanics staff began to look for the Ford donations, not knowing what to expect next. One week it was books: Complete courses and training manuals. Another time microfiche .arrived, followed by a microfiche reader the next week. According to Piercy, one • LCC's teams promise an exciting fall season.

But along with the tool catalog were instructions for department personnel to order any tool LCC didn't already own. Wellborn says that the catalog contains "every specialized tool the dealership would use to work on a Ford." He says he ordered "a page full" of the Ford tools, and the six other department instructors went through the catalog and ordered what they wanted for their areas. The Ford training sessions will begin on Saturdays during Winter Term. LCC students and staff, however, will begin using the new equipment, course work, and tools this term.

Pa/g e 2 September 29 9e+eher i, 1983 The TORCH L Free For All - ASLCC shoul,d-now look at I appearance of ~leclion ' conduct by Chris Gann TORCH Editor The elections are finally over. I The Sept. 14 formal LCC Board of Education review of the College Complaint Committee's findings and recommendations on last spring's student election procedures marked the last legal step (at the college level) for students who had charged violations of the election guidelines. Back in June, during the grievance and hearing proceedings, the special committee produced a list of recommendations to the ASLCC to "clean up" the language in its Bylaws and Election Guidelines. The committee also made suggestions for better regulation of ballots and poll books. And, Jay Jones, director of student activities, reports · that over the · summer ASLCC officers began reviewing the guidelines. He says the redrafted election rules should be written to be clear, concise, and therefore prevent fraud. Yet, he says, rules should not be so ''restrictive'' that violations occur every time there is a shift change at a voting booth. It's encouraging to know that ASLCC is taking the committees' recommendations seriously. But one problem associated with the elections was not addressed in the recommendations and in the summer work efforts. We can trace much of the suspicion and controversy Editorials, letters, commentary over the election to the ASLCC president's public endorsement of one of the presidential candidates, and the fact that a member of the presdident's cabinet -the vice president -- was in charge of running the election. By student government constitution neither action is illegal. But that close connection gave the appearance to some people of a conflict of interest. It was threatening to many candidates. We believe that the ASLCC should look at options for making the elections commissioner post a less partisan position. Destroyi ng airlines is nothing new In a geopolitic al chess game by Arthur Hoppe Syndicated Columnist It was night. In the darkened interior of the Boeing airliner, the passengers slept uncomfortably, chatted over the hum of the engines or read in their solitary little worlds of light. Due to navigational errors, the plane was far off course. It had entered hostile territory and had wandered unintentionally over a series of secret military bases. The pilot was unaware of this. He thought himself in safe air space. When he spotted the fighters outside his window, he saw no danger in them. He either misunderstood or ignored their signals to land. The fighter pilots said later they waggled their wings and even fired warning bursts across the airliner's nose to force it to land. They said the blinds of its passenger windows were drawn, increasing their suspicion that it was a spy plane. They said at one point it lowered its landing gear as though to descend, but then attempted to speed to safety.

The TORCH September 29 - Getel1er 5, 1983 Page 3 Students oppose Solomon draft amendment by Will Doolittle TORCH Associate Editor The issue of draft registration is once again on the minds of college students at LCC -and at every other college campus where students receive financial aid. The Solomon Amendment, which denies federal aid to students who have not registered for the draft, was killed and then revived in court cases within thre_e days of each other in June of this year. Now financial aid offices must handle extra paperwork, and student organizations around the country are again trying to bury the amendment for good. As it stands now, the Solomon Amendment requires all students, regardless of age or sex, who apply for any Title IV federal funds to sign a compliance form. They must state that they have registered with the Selective Service, or, if they have not registered, to explain why they have not. Financial Aid offices must keep the form on file where it is subject to audit by the Department of Education at any time. At the University of Oregon, the ASUO has voted to oppose the Solomon Amendment, and at LCC, the ASLCC is set to discuss the matter at its Sept. 29 meeting. Meanwhile, activities are planned on both the U of O and LCC campuses to inform students and to encourage opposition to the Solomon Amendment. Headaches, paperwork Frances Howard, director of LCC's Office of Financial Aid, says that it means collecting an extra piece of paper from each . student, but, in general, ''we are already col- lecting paper'' so at this point it is not affecting the operation of her office. But it was "very much of a headache'' to financial .aid workers during the week of registration, according to Steve Shinn, a clerk in the Financial Aid office. Before financial aid students could register it was necessary to verify that each one had filled out a compliance form. This took three days of one person's work, and meant that many in Shinn's office had to work overtime. Shinn observed that many students are ''visibly upset'' by having to sign the form. He cited the case of one young man who took a week to think about it before signing. Women Complaining Most Ron Phillips, of Coalition Opposing Registration and the Draft (CORD), says that his office is getting more calls from women than men on this Two Eugene residents participate in "Fast for Life" protest by Will Doolittle TORCH Associate Editor On Aug. 6, eleven people -two of them former Eugene residents -- began a ''Fast for Life." They vowed to eat no food, and drink only water, until significant steps had been taken toward ending the nuclear arms race and feeding the world's hungry. Forty days later, on Sept. 15, the fast was ended. The fasters, considerably weakened by their ordeal, but in good spirits, were again eating nutrients. Although none of the nuclear nations has yet relinquished any warheads, the fast participants and their supporters are convinced that this effort has brought their goal closer to reality. Cynthia Kokis, a staffmember of Clergy and Laity Concerned (CALC), spent a month with four of the fasters where they were based in Oakland, CA. The fasters, she says, "took the ultimate risk because of the ultimate danger" of nuclear annihilation. Seeing these individuals taking that personal risk, she believes, made people examine the issues from a very personal perspective. ''The medium of the fast made them accept that this is an acute problem," she says, and people became "seriously engaged with the idea that we are destroying the earth." 'ElJora's Collatibles 1321 IV 'Eleventh 'Eugene Pottery Silver 342 • 4091 Books Brass China · In her past work on the issues of disarmament and ending world hunger, Kokis says, it has been difficult to get people to make a commitment for the long term. However, the experience of the Fast for Life was the "first time for a lot of folks to pick something up and not lay it down again.'' In many cities in this country, including Eugene, people engaged in nonviolent actions and "support fasts" to focus attention on the issues of nuclear weapons and hunger. In Eugene, seven people were arrested at the Army recruiting office on Sept. 13, as a result of a nonviolent protest against deployment of missiles in Europe. The Army sergeant who filed the charges dropped them this week. _ The ASLCC sponsored a benefit for the fasters on Aug. 5, raising $300 for the Fast for Life. According to Communications Director Cathy Benjamin, it was the first time in a long time that an ASLCC event made money. Fast for Life participants in Bonn, West Germany, met with various German government officials to discuss the impact of US missiles in Europe.

In East Germany, 21 people reportedly began fasting Aug. 6, appealing to the Soviet Union to dismantle its SS-20 missiles. It was this evidence of worldwide personal commitment that led the Fast for Life participants to their decision to end their effort and, as they said in their statement, ''place their trust in the force of truth which is nonviolent and which will continue to bear fruit.'' According to Kokis, Fast participants are hoping people will "turn their attention to congressional action on the issues of disarmament and hunger.'' Andre Lariviere, one of the Fast for Life participants, will speak in Eugene on Oct. 6, as part of the CALC Forum to be held at St. Mary's Episcopal Church, at 13th and Pearl Streets. A dinner will be served at 6 pm, and Lariviere will speak at 7 p.m. Child care will be provided for preschoolers, and there will be a special program for children in grades one through eight. r---~---~---.(f.) ~\l.lt-~ ~e ~\x\Ca.\tt OF- ~ht3. nt=.1=1'1-15 Hemming Special $4.00 a pair Good tbru Oct.

CELEBRATION / This weekend the talents of Eugene's cooks, musicians, ar. tists and others -- not to mention the eaters, listeners and appreciaters -- will be concentrated in the downtown area to celebrate the city's cultural diversity. Entitled the Eugene Celebration, the festivities begin on Friday, Sep. 30, at 4 pm, and end at midnight Sunday, Oct. 2. Some highlights of the weekend's events include: a fireworks display from Skinner's Butte, Friday evening; a parade starting from the Lane County Fairgrounds, Saturday morning; and continuous entertainment at the Mall Fountain from noon onward, on Saturday and Sunday. The Saturday Market will present the group Shumba on Saturday, and on Sunday the revered and reviled Reverend Chumleigh will make a special appearance. Also, a logging competition, with novice categories, will take place in the Eighth and Olive parking lot. For those of us who live to eat, food of all kinds will be in abundance from the kitchens of numerous home and restaurant chefs. Various nonprofit organizations will be represented in booths on the mall, including some together under the title of Let Them Eat Cake Sale. Offering such delicacies as Strawberry Short Recovery Cake, Upside Down Budget Cake, and Breadline Pudding, these groups intend to raise money -- for local crisis relief, and to further their own activities -- as well as raise economic issues they feel are important. The Eugene Celebration promises to have something for everyone, so head on down there this weekend. Whitetones rock the Hult Center by Chris Gann TORCH Editor Picture four teenage boys singing "Duke, Duke, Duke, Duke of Earl. .. '' in harmony on a street corner in New York City in the 1950s. Well, no, they aren't teenagers anymore. But Paul Friedlander, Performing Arts Department instructor, says the a cape/la rock and roll his group, The Whitetones, sings is music he learned as a teen in New York City. "It's like it's our roots music," he reflects. The Whitetones will perform at the Hult Center Sunday during the Eugene Celebration. At 7:30 p.m. they open thesecond show of" 12 straight hours of rock" in Studio One. The group also performs at 5 p.m. on the Eugene Mall. Both shows are free. And when Friedlander isn't singing rock and roll, he's teaching it at LCC. He says his classes, History of Rock Music I and II, "help people become educated listen~rs by knowing the insides of rock as well as feeling the outsides/' There are still openings in both classes for interested students.

Markings have been painted over the sensing wires in the left lanes of three Eugene intersections. Cyclists will be able to put their tires on these markings and trigger the sensing wires to change the signal. Diane Bishop, Traffic Division spokesperson for the Eugene Public Works Department, says, "We are _trying to make the streets more accessible for cyclists (who) were unable to reach the push buttons from the left lane. That makes it unsafe when you have cyclists darting out against traffic." Since bicycles don't have enough mass to trigger the sensing wires unless touched in the right place, these markings will show the cyclists where those places are. According to Bishop, the project will cost the city of Eugene very little; only the cost of paint and labor. The intersections that are marked are: 29th Ave. at Amazon Parkway, and Hilyard at 33rd Ave. and 34th Ave. This is a trial project, but, ''If the cyclists understand the markings and use them,'' says Bishop, "we will see more markings at all inersections that have sensing wires and are not pre-timed."

The money was collected from entry fees and donations. Fifty-six players participated in the event. "Unfortunately, nobody won the $10,000 gift of the hole-inone," said Pat Williams, Special Gifts Coordinator. Such a prize would have been divided evenly between the player and LCC. This is the first time in five years that LCC has been the event's sole beneficiary. In the past Umpqua and Rogue Community Colleges have shared benefits of the tournament with LCC. Williams said that this year, since LCC was alone, the proceeds to the Development Fund were higher. The money will benefit student and staff projects selected by Development Fund Trustees, including awards, grants, loans, and designated scholarships at LCC. The Development Fund is composed of 30 volunteers who raise funds above and beyond the tax dollar from the private sectors to assist programs and projects in the college. World recor d kite attem pt ends in death of flyer The president of Edmonds Community College, Edmonds, WA, upset over the freak death of a team member during the school's attempt to fly the world's largest kite last weekend, said he does not know if the school will permit another attempt at the record. Steve Edeiken, 30, of Venice, CA, became tangled in the kite lines and was carried more than 100 feet into the air before he fell to his death Saturday. Edeiken was the launch director for the college kite team's attempt to fly the ll5foot-by-124 foot, 1,600-pound parafoil kite. "His ankle got tangled in the line. It was a freak accident. It pulled him up in the air.'' said Darlene Smolen, a college spokeswoman, who witnessed the accident. "He pulled himself up and got free and held on to the line, but he couldn't hold on,'' she said. The kite flew for about 45 seconds after Edeiken fell, then it collapsed, said freelance photographer Rob Crandall, who was shooting pictures of the kite. Edeiken was dead on arrival at Ocean Beach Hospital at Long Beach. Smolen said he died of multiple injuries. College President Tom Nielsen said Saturday night that Edeiken apparently wasn't enrolled at the college, but had traveled from California to serve as launch director for the record-breaking attempt. Nielsen said members of his staff had told him Edeiken "had been a long-time kite flyer and a hobby-type person and he came up especially for this launch." Nielsen, who spoke twice Saturday with college people at Long Beach, said he didn't know how hard the wind was blowing when the kite was airborne. Winds over 10 mph are considered too dangerous to launch a kite that size. Now every body gets 50% off. Students question hiring process by Will Doolittle TORCH Associate Editor A number of LCC's minority students are concerned about the way their cultural center is being handled by the school administration. Pat Creole, the last Multicultural Center director, left her job in July, and a replacement has yet to be hired.

"It seems highly unlikely that we would," he said. The 26-member flight team had been trying to launch the kite since 9 a.m. on the wide beach on the Washington coast, Smolen said. The accident occurred about 5 p.m. In August, kite team leader Harry Osborne and kite designer Domina Jalbert, an 84-year-old Florida man, told a reporter their goal was to launch a kite so large that no one would ever break the record again.

The Very Little Theatre and Dr. Royce Saltzman, founder and executive director of the Oregon Bach Festival, were the other recipients. The awards, established by Lee. and Hester Bishop through a Eugene Arts Foundation trust, each year recognize "Persons past and present who have contributed to the enrichment of Eugene's cultural life through their involvement in the arts and letters." Mayor Gus Keller presented Ragozzino with the award. "From 1956 to 1968 the people of Eugene-Springfield became accustomed to the unusually fine productions of musicals which Ed Ragozzino developed with student talent at South Eugene High School," said Keller. "And from 1968 to the present he has carried on that tradition in direction of plays at Lane Community College where he is head of the Performing Arts Department.'' Then Keller emphasized Ragozzino's special role in developing the concept of the Eugene Performing Arts Center. "Anyone who has been interested in the realization of this Performing Arts Center, in which we gather tonight, will remember the exceptional job which Mr. Ragozzino did as the artistic director of the Lane County Auditorium Association from 1964 to 1974 when he produced 10 summer musicals that included My Fair Lady, The King and I, Fiddler on the Roof, Hello Dolly, Westside Story, and others which drew large and appreciative audiences. ''These benefit performances were instrumental in contributing funds and spirit and dirive in keeping the Lane County Auditorium Association project alive. " Keller reminded the audience that in addition to the feat of directing 110 full-length plays and musicals in the community, Ragozzino has served well as teacher and adviser to drama students at both the high school and college levels. Some of his credits include service on the Board of Directors of the Eugene Junior Symphony and the Northwest Drama Conference, and chair of the Oregon College Music Administrators for the past five years. "To many, Ed is known as an actor's director," said Keller. "He knows in advance of that first rehearsal what •he wants a play to be in terms of its theme, action and component parts. At the same time, he gives his actors freedom to create and interpret a character who will dominate or blend with the whole ensemble of players in the best tradition of the theatre, and the Theatre has many traditions. In Eugene, Ed Ragozzino is a tradition.'' Accepting the award, Ragozzino said he asked the people of Eugene not to make the Hult Center a "political football," that a performance center is a necessity in a civilized city. In an interview this week, Ragozzino was asked whether he had ever given up hope for a new arts center in Eugene, after several ballot measure requests failed. "Ten years is not too long a time. If it happens too fast it bypasses the democratic process." DE ARTS PAR IS LCC's season of concert and theater offerings "is a communi1 resource, but is primarily a resource for students," says Dick Reii operations manager for the Performing Arts department. But Reid doesn't think enough students take advantage of LCC ente tainment -- the three plays plus summer theater, and ''about a dozen free musical concerts that the department puts on each year. Reid suggests three options students can take advantage of to see LC theater productions: • Buy a season ticket. At the discounted rate of $15 -- "just slight more than three movies" -- Reid says that students can see "terrific, wel done, live theater." Students have five days (not counting Sunday) fro the date they order to pay for their tickets. Box office hours are 10 a.11 to 4 p.m., Monday through Friday. Currently on sale to LCC staff a students, season tickets go on sale to the general public on October 3 • Take advantage of the LCC Theatre's "student rush" policy. Re says the theater box office will sell unsold tickets for half price students with valid ID one hour before each performance. • Sign up to be an usher.

April's offering is the 1930s comedy_My Sister Eileen. The situational story is "a chestnut, a classic American play that goes on being done, and people go on enjoying it," says Reid. Director Stan Elberson says, "There's no message to this thing -- it's just a fun evening of laughs and entertainment.'' The comedy is about the bizarre things that happen to two sisters from Columbus, Ohio when they move to a Greenwich Village apartment in New York City and try to begin their careers. The Joseph Fields and Jerome Chodorov play is based on the New Yorker magazine stories by Ruth Mc Kenney. Elberson says Eileen will give LCC students "a good chance" for parts in the show. He encourages students to audition for parts. Reid says that children will enjoy Eileen and the material is appropriate for them. The LCC Theatre presents My Sister Eileen on April 27, 28, and May 2, 3, 4, and 5. Stan Elberson Page 8 September 29 -Oclel.Mr §, 1983 Board increa ses pledg e to $14,0 00 for muse um by Chris Gann TORCH Editor The LCC Board of Educa14 voted tion Sept. unanimously to change its the to commitment Cooperative Museum Commission from $3,000 to $14,000. Board member Mary Unruh appealed to the other board members and urged them to ''make a commitment to the quality of life'' in the county. After discussion, the group agreed to fulfill the college's original commitment of $14,000 for the commission. Board members also listened to Vice President of Finan- cial Services Bill Berry's assessment of the impact each of the three property tax relief proposals now in the Special Session of the Legislature will have on the college. The proposals include a tax rate and assessment freeze, an expenditure limitation plan, and the Oregon Community College Association's spending limitation plan. ''Under any of these three measures, we lose,'' said Berry. President Schafer called the cuts of $1.6 million in the past three years a possible ''rehearsal for what we will face under systems.

In June the state legislature abolished the State Public Contract Review Board and empowered local governmental bodies to establish their own review boards. Public contract review boards establish rules governing public contracts in their district. Berry says the LCC Board of Education will use the same regulations the state review board used to review contracts that come up for bid. GET THRO UGH THE TERM WITH AN EASY PASS. {)<) the Of Inter est ••• During LCC's annual all-staff meeting, held on Wednesday, Sept. 21, a Language Arts instructor and two LCC staffers received awards of merit, and ASLCC Pres. Bryan Moore addressed the faculty and staff concerning • · his hopes and fears for the future of LCC. Spanish Instructor Arden Woods received an "Innovator of the Year" award from the League for Innovation in the Community College, a nationwide association of community colleges. Woods was recognized for her work in developing a computer program which enables her to grade up to 100 papers a day and to present each student v··.· Arden Woods ">'·u4;_,. Jerry Sirois Nancy Fausone with a computer print-out showing the errors and their necessary corrections. In teaching Spanish, Woods almost completely avoids the use of English, while encouraging students to begin speaking and writing simple Spanish on the first day of class. Also recieving plaques were Nancy Fausone and Jerry Sirois, who were each presented with the 1983 Outstanding Classified and Support Staff Award. The annual award is intended to recognize classified and support staff who provide outstanding service to the college. Fausone joined LCC's staff in 1976 as a department secretary, and is now the administrative assistant in the Industrial Technology Department. Sirois is a counseling information specialist in the Counseling Department. Beginning employment at LCC in 1968, he has worked as courier, security guard, clerk in the business office, and tour guide. He has been in the Counseling Department since 1978. Moore's Speech to the College Staff In his address to the faculty and staff ASLCC Pres. Bryan Moore noted that LCC is ''patt of a productive and positive process'' in the cycle of fulfilling community needs. The college, he said, provides an environment where students can "enhance their abilities and keep learning." He cited the diversity of people and curriculum as particular strengths. Moore warned, however, that these advantages are threatened by the reemergence of another Proposition 3, the property tax limitation measure that -- if passed -- would put a 1 1/2 percent ceiling on property taxes in Oregon. Proposition 3, Moore asserted, "is an issue that affects our lives and our livelihoods in the future," and its passage would "undoubtedly mean the downfall of community colleges in Oregon." Moore urged the audience to maintain hope for the future of the college and the world as a whole, which he described as inextricably linked. It would be easy, he said, to despair over the ''madness of military spending,'' and the enormous poverty that exists. But, he stated, as long as people maintain hope for the future, then there is a possibility for conditions to improve. ?~V,~~-;,v::·:·:7···:zc:;;:rrf1:::1z;wrr:w-•.•:-:; :,. .:·:·.:r :;=»::;1'1tr:i;;:r~;1 COMMODORE 64 (The Personal Computer that can ~1··4 do it all!)
