Board ponders tax referral plan

Cooper resigns
by Chris Gann
TORCH Editor

Board of Education
member Edward Cooper
resigned from board duty
Wednesday night.
LCC Pres. Eldon Schafer
read the letter of resignation in
which Cooper cited ill health
as his reason for vacating the
post.
Cooper was elected in 1976
to represent Zone 1. In the
past few months Cooper had
only been able to attend board
meetings by telephone conference call.
After accepting Cooper's
resignation with regret, the
board agreed to appoint a
Zone 1 resident to fill the
vacancy.
Oregon Community College
Association (OCCA) Executive Secretary Roger
Bassett reported to the board
on the property tax relief plan
developed by the legislature in
special session. (For details on
the proposed tax plan, see a
related story on page 3.)
Bassett told the board ''You
are a player in this process."
The tax plan includes the

unusual provmon that the
sales tax and expenditure limit
will only be placed on the
ballot if local government
units -- representing a majority
of the population and a majority of each local government type -- request the place. ment.
In another report, Leslie
Rasor, associate department
head • for the Industrial
Technology Department, told
the board that the Classroom
Training Program generated
$300,000 in grants and contracts for the college in
1982-83. Rasor projects that
the program will receive
$550,000 in contracts in
1983-84.
The contracts come from
local, state and federal agencies. She described the contracts as ''performance based" with a 70 percent job
placement requirement.
In describing the program's
success, Associate Dean of
Community Education Larry
Murray said "typically we've
been over the 70 percent requirement" placing as many
as 91 percent of program participants.

Too late for Fall HSC registration

"We will attempt to accommodate anyone sent to us,'' he

said, but there are no plans to
open up additional sections.
Students in the HSC program must be referred by their
local school district, and complete a certain number of
credits before obtaining a high
school diploma.
Noting that it is too late for
students to enter the program
this term, Earl said that next
term (which begins on Nov. 7
for HSC students) "if they
send us sixty people ... we'll
take them on a space available
basis.''

Oregon's less-populated
areas could decide the
future of the proposed
sales tax. See page 3 for
details.

Students wanting protection against campus
mishaps must buy their
own insurance. See story,
page 4.

Junction City's school levy
went down in defeat Tuesday,
and schools there will close on
Friday. But LCC is not
preparing for an influx of
students into its High School
Completion (HSC) program.
According to Richard Earl,
director of HSC, his office has
"no plans" to deal with a
possible increase in students,
resulting from Junction City's
school closures.

Nevv bills became law October 15th
Hundreds of bills passed by the Oregon
Legislature became state law Oct. 15.
The new laws include a tougher drunken
driving bill, as well as measures that affect
everything from the environment and crime,
to taxes and health (see pages 4 and 5 for
details of the new driving laws). Some of the
new laws:
• Oregon's wine tax rises by 2 cents per
gallon on wines produced out of state.
• The sale of wood stoves that don't meet
new state standards will be banned beginning
in 1986.

• Waldo Lake and the North Fork of the
Willamette River are protected as part of the
scenic waterway system. Much of the North •
Santiam River east of Salem is now off-limits
to any new hydroelectric dams also.
• Under another new law garbage collectors
and landfill operators will be required to provide Oregonians with a chance to recycle
household trashing beginning in 1986. Recycling depots will have to be established at landfills, and garbage haulers will have to collect
recyclable materials at least once a month.

We've received two notes of appreciation from
LCC administrators, and one letter from an

This apparent lack of involvement of the LCC

Rally

continued from cover

ASLCC President Moore
attacked the Solomon amendment as a discriminatory law
that primarily affects students
from low income families,
who depend on federal loans
and grants. Moore noted that
Rep. Gerald Solomon,
(R-NY), the author of the
amendment, has attached
similar legislation to the Job
Training Partnership Act, a
vocational training program
for disadvantaged youths.
Solomon was quoted in
U.S. News and World Report
as saying that, in his opinion,
no one who failed to register
for the draft should be entitled
to any federal benefit, including Social Security.
SRC Director Griffith said
at the rally, "We've got to get
ready -- because they are."
Griffith quoted an Associated
Press story in which General
Thomas Turnage Director of
the Selective Service, claimed
that his agency could have
100,000 people in basic training within 30 days from
reinstatement of the draft.
Craig Smith of Students Opposed to Registration and the
Draft (SORD), a U of O student draft counseling group,
said that many students he
talks to agree to register
because the draft is not now in
operation, and feel it is unlikely that an individual will be
called up.
''Things could get real hot
real fast," warned Vietnam
veteran Ron Phillips, Coordinator of the Coalition Opposed to Registration and the

Draft (CORD). Phillips said in
an interview that the Solomon
amendment probably is forcing a large number of people
to register who might otherwise resist the draft.
"Right now the choice is to
'go to school or go to jail,' "
Phillips said. More people
would resist, he suspects, "if
the choice were to 'go to war
or go to jail.' "
The Solomon amendment
applies to both men and
women, although women are
not required to register for the
draft. ASUO Vice Pres. Kevin
Kouns announced that a fund
was being created to assist U
of O graduate student Melissa
Barker, who lost her work
study job and student loans
when she refused to sign a
Statement of Registration
Compliance this fall.
Barker, interviewed after
the rally, said that she could
not accept money from such a
fund, because financial gifts
would jeopardize any legal action she might take in the
future. Dave Fidanque,
Associate Director of the
American Civil Liberties
Union (ACLU) in Eugene,
said that an ACLU lawyers'
committee will decide in
November whether or not to
take Barker's case to the
courts.
Barker said she would like
to see a fund established that
would provide loans (not
grants) to students who lose
their financial aid by refusing
to sign Statements of Registration.

Plan consists of four parts

Sales tax bill will be determ ined by local govern ments
The smaller cities, counties
and school boards around the
state may • hold the key to
whether Oregonians will eventually vote on a sales tax plan,
a state election official says.
That's because the sales tax
plan won't go on the ballot
next year unless a majority of
governing boards of the 603
local governments around
Oregon vote to submit the
. sales tax to Oregonians in an
election next March or May.
And under a plan approved
by the Oregon Legislature, the
vote of a school board in a
small town will hold the same
weight as that of a board in an
urban area, said Greg McMurdo, deputy secretary of state.
The plan consists of four
bills:
• SJR 30 contains the Constitutional features of a sales
tax, expenditure limitation, a
local government ratification
process, and a ban on taxing
Social Security.
• HB 3026 implements the
sales tax and expenditure
limits.
• HB 3027 contains special
election provisions for referral
of SJR 30.
• SB 792 freezes property tax

rates, with some exceptions,
-until 1987.
The sales tax enacts a broadbased four percent general
sales tax dedicated to general
property tax relief.
Families under $17,500 annual income receive a credit
per dependent to offset the
sales tax.
Renters receive property tax
to
equivalent
relief
homeowners.
Retailers receive a two percent discount for the cost of
collecting the tax.
The election would be
March 27 or at the May 15
primary election, depending
on how soon local governments endorse the referrendum.
If the voters approve both
the expenditure limit and sales
tax at a March 27 election, the
sales tax would begin July 1,
1984. If both measures are approved in the May 15 primary
election the tax would be
levied starting Sept. 1, 1984.
Assuming- a seven percent
per year growth, property tax
levies will be about $1,762
million in 1984-85. If $629
million is used to reduce property taxes on all classes of

property it will result in a 35
percent reduction.
SJR 30 amends the Constitution to exempt Social
Security income and Tier I
railroad retirement income
from state and and local taxation.
''What fascinates me is that
the little city of Echo will have
the same vote as the city of
Portland," McMurdo said,
adding that such a referral
process has never been used •
before in Oregon.
As part of the property-taxrelief package approved by the
Legislature's special session,
lawmakers decided that a four
percent retail sales tax should
go to voters only if a majority
of cities, counties and school
districts endorse the idea.
Although critics say the plan
amounts to passing the buck
to local governments, it was
included at the insistence of
Senate President Ed Fadeley
of Eugene, a staunch opponent of the sales tax.
In addition to requiring a
majority of local governments
to endorse the idea, the
measure also says that those
governments must also represent a majority of the state's

population, McMurdo said.
"But 51 percent of the
population is easy to achieve,''
he said. "If we get local
governments in the Portland
area and Marion and Lane
counties (to endorse the idea),
we've got the population thing
tackled.''
Getting more than half of
the 603 cities, counties and
school boards to endorse the
sales-tax referral is another
matter, he said.
''The 51 percent population
provision was added to make
sure we have a proportional,
one-man, one-vote process,"
he said. ''What's interesting is
that it's going to be the first
time that we'll have Eastern
Oregon and the Coast calling
the shots."
''The often-ignored parts of
our state will have considerable clout in deciding
whether we're going to have a
sales tax on the ballot,'' he added.
McMurdo said the secretary
of state's office has worked
out a procedure aimed at easing the concerns of local officials who have called wanting to know how the ratifica-

tion process will work.
Under the plan, standardized forms will be sent to each of
the 603 local governments.
Governments that want to put
the sales tax on the ballot will
only need to fill out the form
saying that a majority of the
governing board members
support the referral. No
resolutions or other formal
declarations will be needed,
McMurdo said.
Local governments also will
be required to hold public
hearings on the sales tax, but
will not be bound by the
results of those hearings.
''They can have 100 people
at the hearing opposed to the
sales tax, and they still can
sign the form to ratify a
statewide vote on the sales
tax," he said.
Once a local government endorses the proposed election,
it isn't allowed to reverse itself
and withdraw its approval.
Barring a successful court
challenge of the procedure,
McMurdo said his office will
set the process in motion as
soon as Gov. Vic Atiyeh signs
the enacting bills sent to him
by the Legislature.

Page 4 October 20 -liA, 1983 The TORCH

Oregon Departm ent of Motor Vehicles stn
The Department of Motor Vehicles is cracking
down again.
In the past year the legislature passed a number of
measures relating to driving safety and fees. Most of
those new laws took effect on Oct. 15, 1983.
Proof of address

The DMV now requires an applicant for a driver's
license or ID card to provide at least one document as
proof his or her current address. This requirement
applies to all first-time applicants, as well as to
anyone who renews or gets a duplicate license or ID
card which includes a change of address.
Documents accepted by the DMV as proof of identity and address will be:
• A utility company billing .statement dated within
30 days of the application;
• A utility' hook-up order;
• A current voter registration;
• A mortgage document or account statement;
• A property tax statement;
• A rent receipt showing an applicant's name and
address and signed by the building owner or
manager,
• Or, for applicants under 18, a written statement
from a parent or guardian attesting to the applicant's

resident address. The applicant's address must be the
same as the parent who signs.
Tamper-resistant licenses

The appearance of all driver's licenses and ID
cards issued to persons between 16 and 21 years old
will change also. The change will be a new, more
tamper-proof laminate. It is designed to make it
more difficult to alter a license, and easier for law enforcement officials and bartenders to detect when someone has tried to alter it.
Higher fees and fines

It now costs more to get a first driver's license or to
renew an old one. The new fees will generate about
$4.S,million in revenue. Officials for the DMV say
the fees are needed to help offset the cost to provide
driver services.
Drivers may also find themselves paying higher
fines for certain violations of traffic laws. For example, the minimum bail and fine for parking in a
disabled parking zone has been set at $25 by one law
change.
Another bill makes failure to stop for a school or
worker bus, which has stopped to load or unload
children and which is displaying its flashing red
lights, a class A traffic infraction instead of a class B
infraction. That means that the maximum penalty

for ignoring the school bus stop law could go from
$250 to $500.
Still another bill will make it more costly to ignore
a traffic ticket. It imposes a $15 reinstatement fee to
be collected by courts when a driver's license has
been suspended for failure to appear when cited on a
traffic violation. This fee is in addition to a $25
reinstatement fee paid to the Motor Vehicles Division
before any license which has been suspended for any
reason can be reinstated.
One fee went down. The amount of money collected for the Motorcycle Safety Education Fund
(paid when a license is endorsed to ride a motorcycle)
dropped from $3 to $2 for the original endorsement.
That means an original motorcycle endorsement will
cost $12 instead of $13.
Before you drink and drive, beware of new laws set
down by the legislature. Tougher laws now face people who drink and then drive, although anti-drinking
driver legislation passed by the 1983 legislature is
nearly nine months away from taking effect. According to Oregon's Motor Vehicles Division, other
changes that have taken effect since October 15 involve: Rules of the road, police authority to cite and
arrest drivers, grounds for license suspension, and
action required against uninsured drivers.

,

LCC students are not insured by the
college for classroom related accidents
(or other related instances) except
when the college has been proven
negligent in such instances.
According to Bill Mansell, assistant
to the vice president of financial services, that kind of coverage would ''be
nice to have, but the premium would
be devasting (to the college)."
However, students enrolled at LCC
can buy a major medical plan of group
insurance for day by day coverage.
"LCC provides a student service that
students should take advantage of,,,
says Anita Overton, of the Student
Health Services Department.
"Students can purchase insurance at a
•
much cheaper rate.''
Students enrolled in one or more college credit classes are eligible to purchase the insurance. The major
medical plan of the policy covers accidents and illnesses, nervous and mental disorders.
Students have three weeks to purchase the insurance at the beginning of
each term. It is too late for students to
buy yearly insurance this .year, so it
must be purchased quarterly. The
deadline to purchase yearly insurance
was October 14.
Anyone interested in purchasing the
insurance or with questions should
contact Anita Overton in the Student
Health Services Department, on the
first floor of the Center Building. Pamphlets are also available, and the actual
insurance contract is on file in the Student Health Services Department for
anyone wishing to see it.

The following list is some of the changes drivers
need to know if they expect to stay out of trouble
behind the wheel.
Drinking Drivers

The level at which a driver is considered ''under
the influence of alcohol" drops from 0.10 percent to
0.08 percent. In other words, it will take fewer drinks
for most drivers to get to the unsafe level for driving:
Another change allows for a chemical test to be
taken without a person's consent if a police officer
has probable cause to believe the person was driving
under the influence of alcohol and that the tests will
reveal that fact. This law applies when the person is
unconscious, or otherwise in a condition that makes
him/her incapable of expressing consent to the tests
requested.
Police may also obtain a test of the blood, urine,
or both to determine alcohol content or to determine
if drugs are present. Drivers who refuse a breath test
in certain off-highway locations, such as shopping
center parking lots, will face a 120-day license
suspension under the new law. In the past, this law
applied only to public highways.
Another change tightens provisions on who may
avoid a DUii (driving under the influence of intoxicants) on their record by agreeing with a court to

the aid of a white cane or accompanied by a dog
guide.
Drivers who hold up traffic also may get a traffic
ticket. A change in the law eliminates reference to
"slow speed" in the impeding traffic law. That
means a driver may be found to be impeding traffic
by driving in any way that impedes or blocks traffic
in a normal and reasonable movement of traffic. The
only exception is when safe operation requires the
driver to drive in that manner.

divert to an alcohol education or treatment center or
program. It is aimed at closing what some officials
have considered loopholes in the 1981 law.
One new law· is aimed squarely at trying to convince young people to stay away from alcohol and
drugs. It allows a court to order the Motor Vehicles
Division to deny driving privileges for periods of time
ranging from 90 days up to several years. This happens if anyone between the ages of 13 and 17 is con- ,
victed or determined by a court to have committed
any crime, violation or infraction involving possession, use or abuse , of alcohol or controlled
substances. Driving a motor vehicle may not be even
involved in the offense.

Police Authority

Police now will have authority to cite "any person'' at the scene of an accident if an officer has
reasonable grounds to believe the person has committed a traffic offense in connection with the accident.
Previously, this ~uthority was limited to citing only a
driver. Now, it could apply to a passenger, pedestrian
or bicyclist.
A~other amended law makes it clear that drivers
lawfully stopped or detained when driving or when
the person was involved in an accident must show
and deliver a driver's license to a police officer who
requests to see it.
This law also says that you must have a valid
driver's license when driving on premises open to the
public, such as shopping centers and parking lots.

Rules of the Road

The state now can require use of traction devices,
not just traction tires, on parts of 15 roads when
winter storms make driving without studded tires or
chains unsafe to other traffic. Previously, traction
devices could be required only on four roads going to
winter ski areas.
Another change eliminates the need for blind or
blind and deaf pedestrians to carry a white cane in a
raised and extended position as a signal to drivers to
stop for the blind pedestrian. Now, a driver is required to yield right of way to anyone walking with

Student's current recourse

Currently, when a student thinks an instructor uses
unethical or questionable methods, the student's
ultimate recourse (after a person-to-person contact
with the instructor) is the grievance procedure.
But Johnson says this poses a serious threat to the
student who is depending upon his/her instructor for
information, support, and grades.
Johnson hopes to bring the student instructor
evaluation policy into effect through a student petition drive which would ask the administration to examine the issue.

Her voice was powerful as she

Those who enjoy modern
jazz got a special treat when
Swingshift came to town last
week. This five-piece, all
woman band delivered its
blend of traditional, fusion
and contemporary jazz at
LCC on Tuesday and at the
EMU on Wednesday.
Originally from the Bay
area, the band has been on
tour since mid-September.
They went as far north as
British Columbia and will
wind down near home in
Mendocino, California. Swingshift has been playing as a
band for roughly four years.
They have gone on four tours
during that time.
Each member of Swingshift
has had formal musical training and each has been playing
her instrument for "years."
Each member also has her own
varied listening interests which
contribute a certain depth and
fullness to the music they play.
Black influences are noticeable
in the gutsy quality that their
music emanates.
Swingshift is very political --

The Community Center for
the Performing Arts -- the
WOW Hall -- was host Saturday night to a very special
American heroine, folk singer
Elizabeth Cotten. At 90 years
old, this lady is still touring the
states and sharinj;!; her magic.
Opening for Ms. Cotten was
another folk artist, Mike
Seeger.

The audience ranged from
very young to very 019.

Strumming her guitar, Cotten encouraged the audience to
sing along with .her. She
played mainly gospel tunes, including traditional hymns such
as ''What A Friend We Have
in Jesus" and "I'm Glad
Salvation is Free." Blues
weren't part of her repertoire,
due to the fact that her church
doesn't allow "worldly"
songs.
Cotten sang her famous
"Freight Train" song. Then
she taught the audience a song
about an old woman who had
done her wrong, called ''Oh

Babe, It Ain't No Lie."
My favorite of all was a
beautiful instrumental called
"New Year's Eve."
The atmosphere was
tremendously warm. The
crowd joined enthusiastically
in the singing. One had the
feeling of shared compassion
and warmth. Ms. Cotten may
have had a cold which made
her voice a little weaker, but
her charm and charisma were
powerful. It was a memorable
evening and she is a wonderful
lady.

democratic process locked her
in her room.

And the times were so
tolerant that only a few
eyebrows were raised when it
was Carol's coveted turn to
stay home from the PTA
meeting.

Parental discipline was a
cinch with three parents to tell
Alice to keep her elbows off
the table, stop biting her
fingernails and refrain from
bringing home strange plants
as who knows where they had
been growing.

Best of all was the general
absence of parental quarrels
over Alice's upbringing. Such
matters were settled by a simple majority vote. For example, when Alice at age 3 attempted to tie-dye the
neighbor's cat _in a bowl of
pancake batter, Ted felt she
should be rewarded for her
precocious creative ingenuity
in order to reinforce her .
superego. Instead, the

There was also a proportional increase in parental
delaying tactics. When Alice,
aged 7, asked if she could
enter the belly dancing contest
for the benefit of The
February 29th Movement,
Bob said he would have to find
out if that was a worthy
Republican group; Ted said he
would have to locate the pro-

per size finger cymbals; and
Carol said she would have to
determine whether Alice could
get home before dark.
That was when Alice rebelled. "It has been an interesting
relationship, Daddy, Mommy
and Daddy,'' she said, shaking
hands with each. "And I'm
sorry it didn't work out. But
three parents is one more than
any child deserves."
It has, of course,- been this
negative reaction by children
that has caused triple parenting to fail to achieve the
popularity it deserves. I'm
sure no parent would ever object to such a reasonable
method of easing the incredible burdens of raising a child.
