Seeking holiday employment?
You're encouraged to apply now
by Chris Gann
TORCH Editor

'' A lot of students come in a
month before Christmas break
and start looking for work,
but it's too late."
Students who want winter
holiday work sh~uld start
looking now, asserts Student
Employment Service Coordinator Linda Kluver. In fact,
Kluver says, it's not too early
for students to begin exploring
summer employment options
and deadlines.
She says students can begin
their search by registering with
the Student Employment Service (SES) located on the second floor of the Center
Building near the Financial
Aid office. When they
register, students complete
about a dozen lines on
"application for employment" cards which SES provides. Each card asks for the

come up. Kluver says students
should check at SES each term
to update and keep their cards
active.
According to Kluver, most
employers will fill winter holiday openings by Thanksgiving. She lists these suggestions
for winter holiday work:
• Holly Farms -- the season
begins after Thanksgiving.
• Tree Farms -- trimmers
and cutters work from midNovember up to the first week
of December.
• Food Service Industries -larger hotels and facilities handle group and holiday conventions.
• Retail Sales Outlets -department, clothing, mail
order stores and inventory
businesses.

The 14-member group flew
to Nicaragua as guests of the
National Women's Association of Nicaragua (AMNLAE)
to spend 10 days touring the
country and meeting with
government leaders, the opposition press, and the people
in general.
Bebe Crouse, former KLCC
radio volunteer and now a

• Cottage Industries -- self

• Shopping Services -- buying gifts for seniors.
• Letter Writing Services -answering letters to Santa for

Kluver adds that some
employers, such as United
Parcel Service, "beef up"
their holiday work crew by hiring students through the SES.
Many employers who want
summer workers (for summer
camps or the national parks)
begin interviewing candidates
in mid-February and hire
workers by early April. She

Although she has "very fundamental concerns'' about the
directions of the Nicaraguan
government, Gill says what
she saw convinced her that
"US government policy is contrary to our interests and
Nicaragua's interests."
That policy, Gill asserts,
means: People are dying in
US-sponsored attacks on
villages; food and materials
are in short supply because of
a trade embargo; and there is a
general disruption of the
economy.
"Wall of ignorance"
US citizens, Gill says, "have
no idea why (the US) is down

after their return, the women
often "run smack into a wall

Colleagues remember Newell

Adult Education Coordinator Dick Newell died
Saturday, Oct. 1, after a fiveyear battle with cancer. He
was 47 years old.
He was born April 14, 1936
in Utica, NY. He and Shirley
Dziedzic were married in 1959.
The have three sons: Craig,
Christopher, and Richard.
Newell began working at
LCC in 1967 as an assistant
professor. Later he served as
chairperson of the Health and
Physical Education Department and as Athletic director.
In 1978 he became an Adult
Education coordinator, and
remained in that position until
September of 1983 when he requested a leave of absence.
From 1956 to 1958 Newell
saw active duty with the US
Army in Korea.
In 1962 he received his
bachelor's degree from the
University of Illinois, where he
was awarded the George Huff
Award for Proficiency,
Scholarship and Athletics.
While at Illinois he played
football for the Fighting Illin1,
and received Honorable Mention in the All-Big 10 Team his
senior year.

. Dick Newell
In 1966 he received the Experienced Teacher Fellowship
Award for study at the University of Oregon. He earned his
master of science degree in
1967.
Within the community,
Newell served on the Health
Education Advisory Committee to the State Department of
Education, the board of Pearl
Buck School, and the Lane
County
Council
on
Alcoholism. Newell also acted
as the chairperson of the Lane
County Health Department
Committee.

Counselor Buck Bailey
describes Newell as a "caring
family man, (who) had a firm,
life-long commitment to mentally retarded kids'' -- one of
Newell's children is mentally
retarded.
And Bailey says, ''The thing
that runs through his life is his
tenacity, he just would not
quit.'' But he also had a
''terrific sense of humor, a
sense of the ironic, the
sublime, the ridiculous -- he
put things into perspective.''
Mass Communications Instructors Mary Forestieri and
Virginia DeChaine say this
about Newell:
"Commitment to ideals and
philosophies of education can
be demonstrated in a variety
of ways. Dick Newell was a
man of varied interests and accomplishments. His dedication to education and his excellence as a teacher carried
through every aspect of his
life.
"As a coach, a classroom
teacher, and as an administrator, Dick's primary
concern was that students,
whether in the classroom or on
the field, learn the values of

physical education and
athletics as they can be incorporated into one's entire life.
The same philosophy held true
when he was with friends and
family. One could not watch
or discuss a sporting event
with Dick without discussing
the role of athletics and the
perspective it should be given
in education.

"As teachers of speech,
many of our students wrote
evaluative papers of Dick's
guest lectures on mental retardation. His enthusiasm,
knowledge, commitment and
his hope were always evident
to the students who heard him
share his personal involvement
and experiences. And they left
those classrooms being moved
and inspired.
"If any of you, or members
of your family, ever stepped
onto a golf course, onto a
boat, or into a bar with Dick
Newell, you know that he was
a patient teacher. He could
help you to better what you
wanted to do, and he could
make it enjoyable -- he could
make you laugh. Whether you
were his colleague on a committee, in need of a confidante

We can control our own destinies
by Will Doolittle
TORCH Associate Editor

What is important to you? Undoubtedly your education and career, or
you wouldn't be here. Your partnership
(or lack thereof) is probably pretty important. If you are a parent, or ever plan
to be one, children hold a special place
in your life.
But what about other people?
Is it important !~ you that they get an
education, and decent jobs; that they
have strong relationships and healthy
children?
These are questions that we, as
students, workers, partners, and parents
must begin to address. We are in an era
of history previously unknown, and only
dreamed of, when decisions and actions
have effects far beyond the personal
sphere of the individual decider/ actor.

Do you know, for example, whether the
company that makes that new Glop
you're buying is poisoning a community
such as Love Canal, New York?
Furthermore, some decisions and actions are now carried out with virtually
no human involvement at all, and in our
name. The Pentagon's nuclear defense
system has, a number of times, been put
on alert by a computer malfunction, bringing Armegeddon to our front door.
In this era of depersonalized communication through electronic media,
we are largely insulated from the results
of our decisions, and those made in our
name. We see and hear the electronically
produced images, but they usually seem
removed from reality. And even if we
don't like what we see and hear, that artificial distance fortifies the false idea
that we have no power to change it
beyond switching the channel.

But the paradox is the fact that the instruments that are depersonalizing our
lives, are also bringing to us people and
ideas in a way that was impossible fifty
years ago.
The world is literally at our fingertips.
We have the informational tools to
make informed decisions about what we
see happening.
We have the tools and we must use
them.
We must educate ourselves about
what is going on in the world. It is no
longer enough to see the world only as
students, parents, or any other narrow
category. Rather, we must begin to think
and act as members of the world community. No longer can we simply accept
what we are told is the way of things. Instead we should question every decision
and action that is carried out in our
name, from student policy to foreign
policy.

The heartbreak of sports--'A Texas tragedy'

Texas officials are considering regulations banning
parents from "red shirting"
their sons in junior high school
in order to gain them additional years of eligibility for
football.

"I' 11 get the Dallas
Cowhawks on the phone!"
cried the joyous father. And,
sure enough, an agent from
that respected professional
footballl team was on hand
that afternoon to sign the unborn tyke to a lifetime contract.

This coup, of course, entitled little Biff, Jr., to enter the

prestigious Dallas Day Care
Center and Brokenfield
Crawling School where his
potential was readily apparent
to one and all.
'' Look at that kid throw a
block!" whispered the center's
awed offensive line coach as
six-month-old Biff tossed one
clean out of his playpen.
Needless to say, such prowess made young Biff one of
the most sought-after pro-

spects in Texas football
history. His parents finally settled on Tom Landry Elementary School, being persuaded
by
its
offer
of
a
$100,000-a-year scholarship
and its excellent educational
facilities, which included a
75,000-seat stadium with artificial turf and a twelve-coach
faculty.

Protesting nuclear arms
by Jean Fero

Two and a half weeks ago a rally was held at the U.S. Army recruiting office
on W. 11th Street in Eugene. One hundred fifty protestors took part in a
peaceful demonstration against the deployment of Cruise and Pershing II
missiles to Europe planned for early December, and in support of the Fast for
Life.
The rally began at 9 a.m. At 10 a.m., eight people, myself included, sat in
front of the two doorways of the recruiting office. When one door was shut and
locked, the eight of us went into the recruiting office to speak to the recruiters
about their support of the deployment of the missiles. We sat in a circle and
engaged in conversation with recruiters, recruitees and each other.
Let me say that all of this was done with sensitivity and courteousness; not
only were we standing up for our rights as citizens of the world, but we also
cared, and still do, about humankind in general, even those in uniform.
After 10 minutes or so the city police were called in and Sergeant Peterson of
the US Army asked a member of our group to leave. When he was told no,
Sergeant Peterson made a citizen's arrest. The police did not have to force
anyone at anytime to co-operate. As the arrests were made, one at a time, we
each took our turn standing up to be hand-cuffed, escorted out of the office
through the reporters and cameras, and through the 150 supporters whose
cheering and singing let us know that we were doing something that day.
As the police lead me down Willamette Street to be detained and booked in a
parking lot, I couldn't help but feel how unjust it is that we were the ones being
treated as criminals when everything we did was in a peaceful manner and was
done in the name of peace! I question where the consciousness of our society lies
when murder and the endangering of lives is accepted as long as the crimes are
backed by government dollars.
Heartbreak continued from page 2

As is the Texas custom,
Young Biff naturally
"red-shirted" as much as
possible, repeating the second
grade six times. Thus by the
time he reached the fifth
grade, he was a six-foot one,
195-pound 17-year old and the
terror of the tough West Texas
Elementary School League.
The Eyes of Texas Are
Upon You High School in Ft.
Worth outbid all its rivals for
Biff's services with a scholarship reputedly in the seven
figures. But he was well worth
it, building an impressive
academic record over his four
brilliant years there of 122
touchdowns.
When Biff graduated from
high school at age 24, there
was some question of whether
he should attend college at all.
But the Dallas Cowh~w~~
finally decided he should attend Texas State Normal Football University, one of their
farm clubs, for a season in
order to hone academic skills.
There, he majored in playcalling with a minor in rollingout and was elected to the elite
Bum Phillips Honor Society
before the season was half
over.
It was on the day of the Big
Game with Siwash University
that tragedy stuck. Biff was on
his way to the locker room
when Big Mac Machiavelli, the
sinister agent of Siwash, tugged at his sleeve. "Psst, kid,"
whispered Machiavelli. "Just
take a look at this here book."
"What's a book?" asked
Biff.
"Oh,
wow!"
said
Machiavelli, slipping him a
copy of Annals of Oceanic
Macrobiology, Volume XIII.
'' Are you ever in for a bundle
of fun."
Poor Biff. He innocently
opened the work to a drawing
of a Nudibranch antilles

magnificat or Greater Antilles
sea slug. And he was hooked.
Not only did he miss the Big
Game, but his new addiction
to reading destroyed his exceptionally promising career.
While all normal Texas gogetters were out tossing footballs and charging tackling
dummies year around, Biff
would now be curled up with
some illicit book, his eyesight
dimming, his once fine passing
arm turning to flab.
Today Biffington Bashford
Jr., a wreck of his former self,
is the world's leading authority on the jogging habits of the
baiegated chiton and a professor of macrobiology at
Harvard University, far from
his native Texas -- just another
tragic example of the heart
break of sports.

In the Nuremberg Principles of 1946

So, on Monday, Sept. 26, 1983 our
group stood before a judge in Eugene
Municipal court to be arraigned on the
charge of trespassing. As it turned out,
Sergeant Peterson refused to sign a formal complaint against us so·we were free
to go.
The real story here is not only what occurred on W. 11th and in the courtroom, but in what is obviously a crime about to take place that will endanger
not just Europe and the USSR, but the entire world.
The Pershing II missile can reach the Soviet Union in five to eight minutes.
This has the Soviet government ready to launch their missiles "on warning."
When their computers tell them we have launched, they won't hesitate to do the
same. Result: Mutual annihilation.
But who says that money and position are the onlywaysto right a big wrong?
We can do something and we can make a difference. It's been done before and I
believe that the will to survive can supercede the negative forces whose only will
is to gain power. Many things are possible with good energy and.this will take a
lot of it but there are a lot of groups to put it all together.

Page 4 October 6 - -tll, 1983 The TORCH

Gatlin inspires Phi Theta Kappa fund raiser
by Chris Gann

TORCH Editor

When Kristen Clark and
Johnna Harms read that country western star Rudy Gatlin
was to perform at the the Lane
County Fair this summer, they
just had to meet him.
They did. And as a result
Gatlin has inspired them to
start a fundraising effort for
Phi Theta Kappa.
Clark is a membei; of Sigma
Zeta, LCC's chapter of Phi
Theta Kappa -- the national
junior college honor society.
Harms acts as the group's
president. And Rudy Gatlin
was Phi Theta Kappa national
alumnus of the year in 1981.
A volley of phone calls to
the Hult Center and letters to
Gatlin followed the two
women's plan to meet with
Gatlin during fair week. Clark
finally arranged a meeting,
and spent an entire afternoon
during fair week talking with
him about the value of Phi
Theta Kappa. Clark also
presented Gatlin with an LCC
Phi Theta Kappa t-shirt.

Clark says she and Harms
hope to get Gatlin to help
Sigma Zeta in its effort to start
a community service fund -possibly with a benefit performance by the Gatlins for
Sigma Zeta.
As well as being an honor
society, Phi Theta Kappa is a
community service organiza-

tion. Currently LCC's chapter
helps at LCC functions by
ushering, checking hats and
coats, and parkings cars. The
group wants more community
service projects that would
help people in need, perhaps
by assisting Campus Ministries
prepare holiday food baskets.
Although a Gatlin benefit
concert is still a dream, Gatlin

has already responded to the
the idea. Last month Clark
received a packet from Gatlin
that contained some of his
group's albums, autographed
pictures and posters. Clark
says her group may raffle the
items and donate the proceeds
to Campus ministries. This,
says Clark, is the first step
towards Sigma Zeta's goal of

an on-going community service project.
Students who achieve a 3. 5
grade point average while carrying 12 credits of graded
credits are eligible to become
members of Phi Theta Kappa.
New members must obtain a
faculty endorsement on their
invitation to join Phi Theta
Kappa, and pay a one-time,
lifetime membership fee.

The computer program
Woods designed is capable of
correcting over 100 papers per
day.
'' I had to do something!''
Woods says. "I was ready to
scream or pull out my hair
from grading all those papers
over the years. I wanted to
devise a system of grading
papers, other than by hand."
Woods started writing and
programming the paper
grading method approximately three years ago. The outcome of the grading system,
along with her teaching
method, has gained so much
respect that she has been cited
as an Innovator of the Year by
the League for Innovation at
Community Colleges.
A conference by the League
is scheduled for Oct. 9 - 12, in
Newport Beach, Caiifornia,
where Woods will demonstrate
and share her successes with
other innovators whq have
been selected from 15 district
community colleges.
Woods says the computer
program works very well. The
only problem now is that other
departments have adopted it,

which sometimes means a long
wait before the computer is
available.
The instruction method
Woods uses to teach Spanish is
not necessarily new, nor did
she design it, but she admits
that she is a faithful follower
of the genius who did .
- Woods teaches language
with colored wooden rods,
and alphabet charts called
fide/s. Fidel means "faithful"
in Spanish, and "alphabet" in
Ethiopian. By using the rods
to represent objects, and the
fidels to aid in pronunciation,
students under Woods' direction begin speaking simple
Spanish in the first days of
class.
Dr.
Frenchman,
A
Cuisinair, developed the
teaching method with the
rods, and Dr. Gatagno, a
Spaniard, derived a relationship between the use of the
rods and the fidel.
Woods states that since she
learned of the method and
started using it in her teaching
some five years ago, she has
had the rewarding experience
of seeing the results through
her students.

Childcare
centers
need
space and
sensitivity
by Karen Martin

TORCH Staff Writer

Some of the students attending LCC are also parents,
and they may face the problem
of finding quality daycare.
Childrens Services Division
(CSD) Day Care Specialists Jo
Tour

Manske and Susan Trotter
suggest visiting several different childcare programs, and
bringing the child along. This
way a parent may observe
their child's reactions to the
environment and staff. Manske and Trotter say it is a good
idea to make contact with the
program's director before
visiting a daycare center. It
could save a trip if you find
that the program doesn't meet
your particular needs in terms
of hours, age groups accommodated, or cost.
It's important to know what
to look for in a daycare center.
Linda Riepe, LCC Child
Development Center coordinator, claims that the overall
atmosphere should be one in
which the staff members
cooperate well, and the
caretakers show sensitivity to
the children's individual

needs. A guide for choosing
childcare that Riepe has
available reminds parents that:
• Children need -an adequate
amount of space to run about
freely in their active play. At
least 35 square feet of free
space per child indoors, and 75
square feet of space outdoors
should be provided.
• Teachers need to be
available to guide the group,
and to meet every child on the
personal level as well. According to Riepe, a state law requires there be one staff
member for every four infants, and one for each 10
children ages 3-5.
Discipline measures should
be investigated. Riepe advocates the redirection of
encouraging
behavior;
children to solve their problems verbally rather than
physically.

building an enormous army,
suppressing the people, and
are preparing to export the
revolution into the rest of Central America.
Crouse says she saw many
of the soldiers (increasing in
number toward the border),
but they were, for the most
part, neighborhood defense
units. She said she and her
cameraperson were stopped at
times, but courteously,
"almost apologetically," asked their purpose. They were
free to take any pictures and
go anywhere they wanted,
aside from military installations.
Wooddell explains, "When
you say a million people in the
army, it really means obsolete
weapons and peasants working in the field with a machete
in one hand and a rifle in the
other to defend against the
contra raiders." The Sandinista government, she says,
trusts the people enough to
arm them.
Crouse says she saw Sandinista leader Daniel Ortega
walking down the street one
day, an activity, she comments, that President Reagan
would never engage in. There
is a lot of talk about repression
in Nicaragua, she says, "but

it's hard to believe that these
people are duped by the
government.''
Crouse is concerned about
the censorship of the opposition press, but says she found
the extent of government
repression a lot less than she
had expected.

shacks that eight people live
in, the broken-down cars with
no replacement parts, the
overcrowded buses .... " But,
as Crouse notes, the poverty
was not depressing to the people engaged in the revolution
because they are clearly ''high
on the changes" taking place.
''They are real hopeful
(because) they are controlling
their destiny," she says,
''They've never felt that
before."
The Nicaraguans, according
to Crouse, have made great
advances in providing food
and health care to the population, and have virtually wiped
out illiteracy.
That impression · is echoed
by Gill, who observes that
although in the USA the idea
of "revolution" has a lot of
fearful connotations, to the
Nicaraguans revolution is a
"unifying vision." It is one
that "brings forth national
pride, educational improvements, and hope for the
future."

Back in Oregon

The women are back in
Oregon at their normal
routines, but Wooddell
believes they came out saying
the US should stop making
Nicaragua justify its actions.
Instead "it's time to make our
government defend its foreign
policy."
Most of the women "came
away with an incredible warm
feeling toward the people,''
says Crouse. "They saw they
are just people like you and
me."

From the ASLCC

by Cathy Benjamin

ASLCC Communications Director

• At our September 29 meeting, the ASLCC voted to endorse and sponsor
four scholarships for the upcoming Future for Justice Conference. This is a
national conference concerning alternatives to imprisonment. It will be held
at the U of 0, October 19 - 21. Nationally known speakers and workshops
will be featured. The four scholarships will be available to interested LCC
students who are financially unable to afford admission. If interested, contact Susan Thompson at 344-4015.
• ASLCC, in conjunction with the ASUO, has scheduled a rallv at the U of
O on Friday, October 14 to voice our common opposition to draft registration and the linkage to financial aid. President Bryan Moore and SRC Director Nigel Griffith are among the speakers. We voted 10-1 that ASLCC,
representing the students of LCC, oppose the Soloman amendment , and support efforts in Congress to appeal this law. A letter will be sent to Jim
Weaver.
• A Student Resource Center newsletter is in the works . ASLCC approved
the purchase of plexiglass holders which will go on the tables of the cafeteria
containing our information on one side, and the cafeteria menu on the other.
Keep an eye out. We feel this will better inform you of activities that are in
the works.
• ASLCC wants to thank the photo ID crew that worked during registration. These people put in top quality work. ASLCC purchased seven pizzas
from Tino's and treated the staff on Friday, September 30 to say thanks. ,,
• There will be a tlemonstration by the Society for Creative Anachronism
on Friday, October 7 from noon to 4 p.m. in Bristol Square (the lawn .north
of the cafeteria). The demonstration will feature "Mid-evil" dueling .
• An all women's jazz band from San Francisco will perform at LCC on
Tuesday, October 11, outside, weather permitting. Swingshift is one of the
better Bay area jazz bands, and ASLCC is excited about their performance.
• Free films for LCC students are in the works. Cultural Director Stephen
Wysong has reserved Center Building (basement) Room 9 on Wednesdays.
Stay tuned for more details .
• ASLCC is implementing a student evaluation of instructors on campus.
If you are interested in this, or have input, please see us in our office, Center
479.

• The Downtown Center has expressed concern about some representation in ASLCC. A committee was formed to investigate the possibility of the
OTC having a rep join ASLCC, and to insure that OTC students receive the
same benefits as those of us who attend the main campus.
• The next ASLCC meeting will be Thursday, October 6 at 3 p.m. in the
LCC Boardroom. You are welcome to attend any and all of ou~ meetings.

CASIO NOW OFFERS
STUDENT AID.
We at Casio figured you could use a
little help this semester (not to mention a
few extra bucks). So we're offering a $5
rebate on our FX-98 and FX-910 solar powered scientific calculators, which regularly
sell for $29. 95.
The FX-910 is a wallet sized unit with
48 scientific functions. The FX-98 is credit
card size with 42 scientific functions.
Both feature an 8 digit mantissa with 2
digit ~xponent.

Both feature fractional calculations (a
function not found on many comparable
units). So now you can work with fractions
without having to convert to decimals.
And since both units incorporate a
powerful solar cell that can operate in very
low light, they'll not only save you time and
energy, they'll save you from ever having
to buy batteries.
The FX-98 and FX-91 Oalso come with
a free application manual, "Strategies for
Scientific Calculating,'' which will save you
work by showing you shortcuts for using
your calculator.
So if you think you could use a little
student aid this semester, take advantage of
our $5 rebate offer. And bring a Casio to
class.

our major tasks: supplying information on
pesticide issues to individuals and organizations

Non-traditional career
training
The Industrial Orientation Program is designed to offer people an opportunity to sample a
variety of non-traditional careers by using the
typical work skills necessary to complete handson projects. All work is done in a nonthreatening environment and does not require a
great investment of either time or money. This is
an ideal situation for those exploring career options or desiring to learn basic "how-to" skills.
Fall term mini-courses include machine shop,
electronics, woodshop, industrial careers, and
meet-a-micro(computer). All are either one or
two credits and last 2-4 weeks. Fall openings are
staggered throughout the term. Consult the fall
schedule for specific information or call Renee
LoPilato, ext. 2802.
