Lane Community College Vol. 19 No. 19 March 1 - .ll 4000 E. 30th A venue • Eugene, Oregon 97405 Student Train blocked 3 hours Health (Editor's note: As well as being a TORCH reporter, Ed Bishop is active in the Disarmament Movement.) Services changing by Ed Bishop for the TORCH Police arrested 35 people in Portland last Friday on charges of trespassing, as they vigiled, prayed, and sang ''We Shall Overcome" during a nonviolent blockade of a white train they believed was carrying as many as 200 thermonuclear warheads to the Trident submarine base at Bangor, Wash. '' My conscience brought me here," said Betsy Reeves of Eugene Direct Action, one of the many anti-nuclear groups participating in the protest. "It gives me a positive way to deal with my despair,'' she added. The train got back under way about 3:30 p.m., ending a three-hour standoff involving more than 200 protesters, including 4 LCC students and nearly 50 others from the Eugene-Springfield area. The unscheduled stop was the first forced interruption in the train's journey from the Pantex weapons assembly plant in Amarillo, Texas, and the first in the 20 year history of the specially built white trains, so-named for the color of the heavily armed "safe-secure" rail cars that carry the weapons and weapons parts. The demonstrators said they hoped to go beyond the shortrange goal of stopping the train. "We communicated to the people on the train about why we have chosen to block the Death Train with our lives, appealing to them to recognize the ultimate crisis of life and Screening begins for new KLCC . music director by Jackie Barry TORCH Staff Writer KLCC began the screening process for a new music director this week. hours by Marjorie SobQI for the Torch I p. 0 -5; iii "O ~ >, .D 0 0 ..c: 0.. Nigil Griffith, SRC director, reflects on the nature of the "White Train's" cargo of thermonuclear warheads. Because of a sharp increase in patient visits to the Student Health Service (SHS), pushing its staff to '' almost reach the breaking point,'' the SHS will change its hours spring term. According to Sandra Ing, director of SHS, beginning next term the clinic will be closed 12:30 to 1:30 p.m., Monday through Thursday, but otherwise its schedule will remain unchanged. SHS is trying out the new hours on a trial basis says Ing. Spring term hours will be 8 a.m. to 12:30 and 1:30 to 4 p.m., Monday through Thursday, and 10:30 to 3 :30, Fridays. Currently, the staff's workload is so great that the nurses, for example, don't have a legitimate lunch break or much time to make entries on patient charts. The new hours are intended to remedy the situationt says Ing. 1 conscience which we all share,'' expressed David Oaks of Eugene. ''The people on the train belong to the same family as the people in front of it.'' ''If the people knew what was on this train, they wouldn't let it go through their state, " said vigiler Will Wingate of Eugene, adding ''This thing is carrying the equivelent of more than 1000 Hiroshimas ! '' The train inched along for about 30 minutes as protesters were pulled from its path. It finally stopped when Union Pacific officials, worried about possible injuries, called a truce. ''Thank you for stopping. You get the message," exclaimed Dorothy FisherSmith, 55, of Ashland. "We need some help," said director of operations Sgt. Gary E. Snowden as he called for reinforcments to help the police and railroad men who were by then huffing from the strain of pulling and shoving people off the tracks. The number of Portland police grew to 50, including six on horseback. A phalanx of 20 Oregon State Police troopers dressed in riot helmets and armed with batons marched in but did not take part in the arrests. And she says inefficiency isn't the reason why the staff isn't able to complete its workload. The reason is increased student use of the clinic: Her records show that the number of students using SHS per day climbed from approximately 72 in January of 1983 to approximately 93 in January 1984 -- but there was no increase in staff. Ing says the new hours are a "survival thing" for the staff.

Minimum qualifications are two years of involvement with a radio music operation and two years of post high school broadcast training or education. were attracted by the awardwinning programming KLCC is famous for, or possibly because applicants are looking for a change and, in some cases, are willing to make less money. According to Station Manager Jon Schwartz, many candidates more than qualify for the position, including some women, which he says is something new. Schwartz states that women in radio have made great strides for positions of greater responsibility since the last time KLCC screened for a music The starting salary for the music director position is bet$13,000-$15,000. ween Schwartz this salary is probably not one of the factors that attracted so many applicants, although this figure is somewhere around the average for National Public Radio music directors. He thinks it's more likely that applicants Departing Music Director Ken Croes took about a $3,000 annual cut in pay when he became music director two years ago. He is now leaving to operate a Eugene-area advertising firm with his wife, but will continue to work two days a week at the station until the new music director settles in. "I'm sorry to see him go," says Schwartz. I II, 1984 The type of work the staff does "can only go so fast and mistakes are unacceptable .... When we get busy and harassed, the students suffer because the staff has less energy.'' Sharon Kealoha, an SHS staff nurse who will be affected by the change in hours says, "I think patients are going to get the best deal with the new hours,'' citing the benefits of less stress (for the nurses), a shorter waiting period (for the students) and better efficiency (at the clinic.) Yet Anita Overton, the SHS administrative assistant who handles the front desk, sees . potential pitfalls in the new hours. She says ideally, th¢ nurses need a full hour to catch up on morning charting, clean the examining rooms, and eat lunch. But when SHS closes for lunch the nurses will still have to see those patients who arrived before 12:30 and haven't yet been taken care of. And Overton hopes students won't "bunch up" at SHS when the clinic re-opens at 1:30. The staff considered other alternatives. It told students which hours are the busiest and posted the ''WE'RE SW AMPED'' sign in the waiting room. Kealoha thinks the alternatives have helped somewhat -- yet haven't lowered the workload or eased student and staff frustration. SHS also considered not treating certain conditions, but the screening process would take too long, says Ing. Ing hopes the new hours are "not too inconvenient for students.'' She says if the new hours don't work SHS will try something different. On the Inside The works of the TORCH-ASLCC photo contest winners are displayed on page 7.

Apparently there are some not-so-riice people here as well, but Guatemala does a good·job of putting on a civilized facade. Even military people here will treat you with considerably more courtesy than their Mexican counterparts -- that is if they don't kill you. Two years ago, two tourists, one French and one Japanese, were pulled off a bus by the army in a remote part of Quiche province and shot to death, a fate usually reserved for Guatemalan Indians.

There are military roadblocks at each one, at which passengers must disembark from their respective cars and buses, and submit to being searched -- as if to punish the entire population for the guerrillas misdeeds. This seems to be a primary philosophy of the Guatemalan army. The large scale killings of civilians in the north is strategically intended to "destroy the base of popular support'' the guerrillas enjoy in that area.

At first, I was afraid with the bikers. They rented one whole campground. I took my daughter, also. There was quite a concern for her. Joyce, my friend, was scared for her. The bikers treated Kay, my daughter, as their own child. •They spoiled her rotten. There were no drugs that I saw. There were no fights and no shooting as you sometimes hear about. There were no rapes or any of that other junk you hear about. There were eight different groups of bikers there. It was so neat seeing everyone getting along. When things like this happen, you sure wish there were some news people there. We went to town just a few times. When any of the bikers got drunk, they were given beer at the campground so they wouldn't go out on the streets. To the Editor: In response to Larry Mann's forum last week I feel I must say: 1) Larry, do you think reactionary backlash is the proper way to ''force change''? Do you really think change can be forced? Change comes only from within, in the hearts of people. 2) as a recently appointed senator, I resent and refute your charge that the ASLCC is "unyielding and selfish." I have found the ASLCC to be quite reasonable.

The revolution seems a million miles away when you're in Panajachel. This "hip" tourist spot on volcanoringed Lake Atitlan has seen more prosperous times though. Fear of getting "blown away," and the tourist boycott of Guatemala, have dwindled the previous multitudes of backpack taters down to a skeleton crew. I saw the film ''Missing'' here, of all things, in an almost empty theatre. I met Arnold in Panajachel. He was a Dutch war correspondent returning to El Salvador after spending six months traveling with guerrillas in Afganistan. He spent • ,L, ~ ~~ J1&: ~~) ~ \ /{) ~\\\ \ /2 /1 'I ,/ '/ J I J i~)l a year in El Salvador covering the U.S. embassy there, but felt impelled to leave because "I started hating Deanne Hinton's (former US ambassador to El Salvador) guts too much." The four Dutch journalists supposedly killed in a "crossfire" by Salvadoran security forces two years ago, were personal friends of his. ''They were making proguerrilla films and the government wanted to put them out of business,'' he explained. Arnold could be a bit reckless when he was drunk. One night after he'd had a few too many, we exited a bar on the outskirts of Panajachel and encountered a group of gun-toting Guatemalan soldiers standing in the street. To my horror and dismay Arnold immediately started ver- ASLCC for personal reasons. Larry and I have spent many hours discussing government issues and have agreed and disagreed on a variety of these issues. I admired Larry's energy and drive for justice after the controversial ASLCC elections last May. Recently, Larry has consistently attacked the ASLCC at every opportunity. In my opinion, he has exhibited a negative attitude toward Senate members and he seems determined to try and undermine our current student government. I feel saddened that someone of Larry's caliber would be so pessimistic and refuse to acknowledge any of the positive ASLCC accomplishments this year. I feel the strong negative bias Larry has toward the ASLCC has clouded his objectivity and has heavily influenced his judgment and opinions concerning the Senate. I think TORCH readers should keep this in mind when reading his comments in the Forum last week. Larry, I personally believe you are an intelligent individual with tremendous energy and determination.

Walking down a dark, lonely road, being followed by a dozen Guatemalan soldiers carrying machine guns was not the most enjoyable experience I've ever had.

Mann & Chase present budget interpretations by Larry Mann and Tim Chase LCC Students Are M S ~ s spent wisely for student services? Two informed students say,"No." In Part I, Larry Mann examined student dollars spent on the MSFID (Mandatory Student Fee ID) and today I want to look at ASLCC spending policies to date for 1983-84. The decision to seek an election to reduce the MSF was made after various descussions with ASLCC Senate members. I have attended ASL CC Senate meetings and feel a petition is the only way to get the issue to the voters. The 1983-84 revenue to date (Feb. 6) is $54,546.18. This figure comes from the main computer at LCC. Of that amount ASLCC has spent $51,183.25. It is that spending policy we will review . Legal Services: The TORCH reported in the May 26 edition that legal services excluded summer term. Why did the account show activity of $1,038.40 in summer term? Cultural Events: This line item has been frozen by the ASLCC advisor because of a loan to the BSU ($850). This has not been paid back. ASLCC President's Salary: ASLCC finance policy states that the president may not be paid for nonwork days or off-campus activities. The account shows that the ASLCC president was paid for the time he was in Central America and during the Christmas break. LTD Subsidy: This account was stated to be $4,200 by our ASLCC VP but it is written as $3,750. Why she mis-stated ·herself is beyond me? Lounges: Starting with a balance of $4,400, this account was reduced by $2,900 and distributed to other accounts. That leaves less than $1,000 to provide for future improvements. Free Phones: The ASLCC has voted to close this account. Thus, rest in peace the free phones account. Student Resource Center: This account has $138.50 worth of pizza on its books. Travel: This account was used when the ASLCC President went to Detroit, Atlanta, and Washington, D.C. among other places. Our VP stated that only in-state expenses were included. This account is in the red for $1,287.91. The president plans to go to Washington, D.C. later this term. Inactive: For an inactive account, this one is surprisingly busy. The activity shows eveything from a TORCH ad to the payment of a legislative counsel. Copy/graphics charges range from $48 to $246.49. The inactive account does not show up in any other report other than -$32 on a trial balance sheet. Given the above spending choices, it is not surprising that right now the accounts are over-drawn. The overdrawn ones are as follows: Classified labor (legal/graphics) Payroll expense Pay-roll expense (legal/graphics) Travel Outside rental (cultural sub acct.) Photo ID capital Inactive Classified labor (Photo ID) Grand Total $ 485.75 181 .23 25.37 1,287.91 98.85 3,989.50 32.00 1,822.38 $7,922.99 The ASLCC has been spending about $7,500 a month. In order to come out even, they must reduce spending $5,500 a month until closing of the accounts next July. The monies to cover the current over-drawn ASLCC accounts can only come from Spring Term student fees. T.herefore student government services to Spring Term students will be much reduced. These budget items raise some interesting questions about who is served -- the students or the ASLCC executives? Why are Spring Term students penalized by Fall and Winter Term expenditures? Should unnecessary trips (i.e., to the East Coast), pizzas and loans be cut out so Spring Term students can be equally served. You, the student, should be able to voice your opinion through the election process. Beware of those who will attempt to distract your attention by name-calling and those who do not speak to the issues at hand. It is time ALL students had a chance to voice their opinions. Why must students wait until Spring Term to elect new ASLCC officers when the need to adjust is now? An election to reduce the MSF will enable all students to voice their agreement or opposition. Treasurer says budget info incorrect by Cristi Becker ASLCC Treasurer In response to Larry Mann's Forum of Feb. 23, 1984: First of all, I would like to say that much of the information Mr. Mann provided was incorrect. All the ASLCC student services that existed under last year's $1.30 Mandatory Student Fee (MSF) still exist with 1983-84's MSF. In fact, more has been spent this academic year on student services. A 20 hour per month Legal Services secretary has been hired, and the term pass bus subsidy costs $600 more than it did in 1982-83. The ASLCC did not implement the Photo ID (PID) program on a blind notion. It had been in the planning stage for five years before it was finally approved by the Board of Education. The PID program was expected to cost $17,180 for the 1983-84 year. So far it has cost $20,239 (PID equipment had to be doubled due to the large volume of students) which excludes Spring Term registration costs. The projected revenue from PID is $64,620. Excluding the revenue from Spring Term registration, PID has brought in $43,202. That leaves $21,418 which Spring Term registration must bring in to cover the 1983-84 budget. It is expected that Spring Term registration will bring in at least $23,000. These are conservative estimates. The library had been planning to make the bar code mandatory for years, regardless of who implemented it. At the same time the Athletics Department realized that some sort of funding would be necessary to keep the Athletic program functioning. It was the college's decision to retain vending revenue for other college programs. While it is true that the ASLCC had to give up the $15,000 revenue from vending machines when it initiated the PID program, the revenue from PID has proved people in this state, but students themselves have access to temporary employment and job training for future employment. Unfortunately, the future of community colleges and higher education entails some grim possibilities. Last year this measure was narrowly defeated and in the meantime there has been little done to provide property relief. Yes, there needs to be property tax relief, but Proposition 3 is not the answer! It is important that students take a leadership role in working against this measure. CCOSAC (Community Colleges of Oregon Student Association and Commisssions ), which is your state student association, has been involved in this process and will continue to be strong in this statewide lobbying effort. Critical student-related issues are not only happening on the state level, but national level as well. President Reagan recently submitted his budget for Fiscal Year 1985 to Congress, and the proposed .budget for education would mean eliminating approximately 800,000 awards to undergraduate and graduate students. The loss in Pell grants alone would mean 300,000 fewer awards. Here is a further break down of figures: to be a good choice. I must also point out that the $3 MSF was intended to maintain the existing programs that the $1.30 MSF provided. It was stated on the ballot that the additional revenue would maintain existing student programs. It did not, however, state for how long it could be done before inflation would force another _increase in MSF. We fully expect that an increase will not be necessary for at least three years. The ASLCC loaned $850 to the BSU for a fundraiser. Many headaches and much time was put into making sure it was legal to give them the loan. The proceeds from that activity were not spent for any political candidate or activity, so please, before you condemn the ASLCC as being unyielding and selfish, come and get the correct facts from the ASLCC office, Room 479 Center Bldg., or come to Student Activities, second floor Center Building. ASLCC promotes student interests on all levels by Bryan Moore ASLCC President March 1 and 2 have been proclaimed Community College Awareness Week in the state of Oregon. This is a time when we can recognize the important role that community colleges have in Oregon's economic structure. Education is one of the most efficient uses of tax revenue. Not only does it provide stable employment for tens of thousands of First of all, in next November's elections, people in Oregon will be voting on a tax limitation measure better known as Proposition 3. If this measure succeeds, it undoubtedly will be the downfall of community colleges and the overall quality of education in Oregon. Education is much too vital to be crippled in the way it will be if this measure succeeds. Just to demonstrate the loss of revenue at LCC -- if Proposition 3 passes, $5 million would be lost, which would be a 25 to 40 percent reduction of the overall budget. I hope that it is obvious what kinds of drastic program cuts would take place. It could very easily be • your program that is eliminated or your teacher who is laid off_ Fundlna SEOG SSIG NDSL Trio '14 Appropriation '85 Request Coopentln Ed. International Ed.

So you can see how important it is that students be active on the national level to ensure that everyone has equal educational opportunities. The U. S. Student Association (USSA) is the national organization that lobbies for student interests. ASLCC and CCOSAC (comprised of all Oregon community colleges) are proud members of this organization. It is through this kind of networking that stu_dent associations are able to be truly effective organizations in serving their students and securing the future for education. An effective student government is one that is capable of supporting programs for stu- dent services, dealing with campus concerns and being active in student associations that promote student interests on all levels. As President of the ASLCC, I am proud to be a part of a fine organization that achieves all of these goals stated above. The services that ASLCC provides the students of LCC are overwhelming when compared to other institutions, yet at the same time we maintain the lowest student fee in the state. I realize that a lot of work that various departments and individuals achieve can go by unnoticed. The beauty of working in an educational institution is seeing how we each carry out responsibilities in our own areas, yet at the same time we must see that we are • all contributing to the growth of each other, our school and essentially society as a whole. I am confident in saying that the ASLCC, being the student government of LCC, has been a part of this process and is an organization of which you can be proud. Page 4 March 1 - -¥, 1984 The TORCH Eugene struts its stuff to the world this summer of Oregon with the first US Olympic Scientific Congress is evidence that Eugene has already established a respectble reputation around the world. The U of O has a wide network of international contacts, and these contacts combined with what Ellis calls "a smooth sales job" are how Eugene ended up hosting this major international event. Ellis cites timing as another reason Eugene was chosen, since we were awarded the contract before San Fransisco and other cities had even made bids. Perfect timing, good planning and fast talking. The implications of hosting such an event are astronomical. Over 4,000 delegates will travel from around the world to spend one week in Eugene, Oregon.

New York became the melting pot for millions of immigrants searching for a new home. London, Paris, Los Angeles, Tokyo are all examples of cities which rose to prominence, because they had something to offer the world. The idea came when, through various international con tacts, Ellis learned UNESCO (United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization) had not found the site for the 1984 Olympic Scientific Congress. Immediately, the University of Oregon prepared a bid, and submitted it to UNESCO far in advance of other major cities. The hype, says Ellis, was convincing the organization that Eugene could handle an event of this size. Ultimately, UNESCO handed the bid to Eugene, and the stage was set for what will be the largest international "convention" in the history of this state, and possibly the beginning of many·good things for Eugene. The fact that UNESCO would entrust the University As we advance headlong into the 21st century, people like Michael Ellis, U of O professor and 1960 Olympian, believe Eugene, Oregon can gain world respect if we market information instead of lumber.

"Careers in Robotics" is a one-credit course offered May 15 - June 1, Tuesdays and Thursdays from 2 to 4 p.m. The sequence number and enrollment information can be found in the Spring Term Schedule under Industrial Technology programs. There is no pre-requisite. Another first-ever class is "Robotics: Special Studies," which is available through the Data Processing Department. The class has a pre-requisite of one year of machine language.

On very few occasions has he voted against financial aid." • Although the Democrat's financial policies won't be decided until August, Congressman Jim Weaver's (D) Public Relations Director Ron Eachus, does say that "Reagan is cutting (financial aid) too much ... He is pricing people out of a proper education." Senator Packwood's office could not be reached for comment by press time. The TORCH March 1 - Air Tech. program to host seminar Oyer 700 students enrolled each year Data Processing Dept. fulfilling goals by Frank Nearing TORCH Staff Writer Can a faculty of less than 5, backed by a support staff of 5, meet the academic needs of 700 students enrolled in computer courses each year at LCC, and provide support for the college, too? If you talk with a number of Data Processing students and the DP Director Jim Keizur, the answer appears to be an unqualified yes. "We have been doing it, and I think we've been doing a great job," says Keizur. "We have a pretty good reputation in the community." To provide opportunities for the "hands on" experience, the DP Department supervises 68 computers available to students in three locations: Two are located in Rooms 201 and 122B of the Health Building; a third is located in Room 423 of the Center Building and is identified as the Social Science Lab. All labs operate with open enrollment and a sign-up list to assure time is distributed equitably. Lab assistants are · on hand to keep the work flowing smoothly. At one computer lab, Marie Hinkle, a full-time student, says "I took a basic class just on a whim, loved it and I've been here ever since. It is an exciting challenge for somebody like me who always thought the machine could conquer her. Now I can conquer the machine." Mindful of the limited curriculum and the student's need to find a job the emphasis in instruction lands on ''concepts and computer languages best associated with the business field,'' says Keizur. '' ... Because of our limited market-place most of the students will find jobs in local industries where they will become money-managers,'' he says. This might mean computer work in the "bread and butter applications of accounts payable, accounts receivable and on towards payroll responsibility.'' But students come with various levels of interest and commitment. Some are business majors while others are from mathematics, science, music and health. And the DP courses are open on a first-come-firstserved basis -- the department makes no attempt to limit enrollment, except by its availabile resources and faculty. Keizur agrees, in a noncomplaining way, that the curriculum is limited. There is a certain lack of flexibility in offering some courses every term, and finally, "our night schedule is not as generous as we in the department would like it to be.'' The Data Processing Center, located on the first floor of the Business Building, also provides computer services for the college administrative departments as well as the college's instructional departments. • Serving the administration, DP takes care of such jobs as student registration, schedules, payroll and personnel. • Helping instruction, it is involved in constructing and correcting tests. • Data Processing is also tied-in with Career Information System which enables students to explore career options. • And the center is an ongoing lab affording computer students first hand experience in data processing problem solving and application. The LCC Air Technology Program will host a seminar for aviation maintenance students and professionals Friday, March 16.

The flight simulator, recently purchased by LCC Flight Technology Department, has been at the airport for just over two weeks. ''The utilization is better than anyone of us would have expected,'' states Terry Hagberg, department chair. The AST-300 Flight Simulator will replace the 1965 link GAT-1 simulator that is far behind today's technology. The AST-300 is far more realistic, says Hagberg. Its controls are set up to closely resemble those in the cockpits of late-model single and twin engine airplanes. Flight instructors can also program the AST-300 to simulate airport conditions which exist in any location, ·enabling students to receive better training. Hagberg has two major plans for the simulator. First, to get the simulator into use, not only for students, but also for residents of Lane County who would like to use it. Part of this plan has already come together with the program offering a package to the com- munity for $36 per hour for both simulator and instructor time. Second priority for the simulator, says Hagberg, is to improve the environment it is in. At this time the $70,000 unit is open to distractions from anyone that passes through the room. "You don't have people walking and carrying on casual conversation in the back of the airplane,'' says Hagberg. "We want to make it (the simulator) as close to the real airplane as possible." Hagberg finds AST-300 has many more features than he expected. He and his staff have found that the simulator can be programmed to memorize specific geographic locations as well as simulate any terrain in the world. Also, a "plotter" pinpoints on paper the exact path travelled by the simulator making a record available for students and instructors to review in assessing skills. Students in the Flight Tech Program find the simulator very cost efficient and beneficial in their training. Third year student Kumar Nadesan, who is working towards his commercial flying license, says, " The first time you get into it, it seems real touchy, but now it's comfortable.'' ,. . . . . . . . ,.-:-,~~?>. r~~~~ .turl .. 4740/MIN-747-7900 U of O library accessible with LCC photo 10·card by Sheri Feinstein for the TORCH Your LCC photo ID card is your passkey to the wealth of more than a million items available in the University of Oregon library system. A reciprocity agreement observed informally since last September provides students and faculty of both institutions free access to the U of O and LCC libraries. To obtain a U of 0 library card, valid forone term, the LCC student presents his/her photo ID card and fills out an application form at the U of 0 main library circulation desk. Previously, LCC students had to obtain a U of O "town patron" library card, which now costs $25. The University's main library at 15th and Kincaid streets is supplemented by branch libraries in law, architecture and allied arts, science/math and government information, as well as by an archives and map room. LCC Library Director Clifford Dawdy cites the U of O's extensive collection of periodicals and scientific abstracts as ex- amples of resources that can benefit users from LCC. LCC Biology Instructor Tom Wayne says that many LCC students enrolled in courses for science majors use the U of O Science Library, which subscribes to about 2700 scientific journals. Wayne says he checks the journals on a weekly basis to "stay current" in his field. Director Dawdy notes that the LCC library offers U of O students and staff ''technical items that an ordinary academic university doesn't have," including materials relating to law enforcement, forestry and aviation. Both Dawdy and Pat Silvernail, U of O assistant librarian for public service, observe that the informal reciprocity arrangement has worked well. Silvernail says she hopes to see the agreement formally adopted by the end of this academic year. The only obstacle to the finalizing process, she says, has been the time constraint imposed by other daily library business. LCC dispenses $350,000 SBA grants The Small Business Administration announced Feb. 23 the selection of Lane Community College to administer a $350,000 SBA business assistance grant. The money will be used to help set up an Oregon network of small business development centers modeled after LCC's Business Assistance Center. NEED TO FILL A SCIENCE REQUIREMENT? HOW ABOUT A GENERAL BIOLOGY CLASS WITH AN EMPHASIS OF FIELD BOTANY? Sandy Cutler, director of LCC's center, has been named to direct the statewide effort. Although the SBA has made similar grants to other states, the Oregon grant is the first to be administered by a community college, according to the SBA. The SBA money is intended to supplement $500,000 given by the 1983 Oregon Legislature to the Oregon Department of Education to create a statewide network of business assistance centers housed at Oregon's 15 community colleges.

Senate to review final draft Tuesday by Chris Gann TORCH Editor The By-laws committee will present the final draft of the revised student government election rules at the ASLCC Senate meeting Thursday, March 1, at 3 p.m. in the Board Room. A public hearing on the final By-laws changes will be held Tuesday, March 6, at 2:30 p.m. in PE 205. If approved, the revised By-laws are scheduled for a ratification vote at the Senate meeting March 8. According to ASLCC Vice President Fran Johnson, the major change proposed is the incorporation of all election guidelines, codes and rules into the By-laws. The committee also worked to eliminate ''loopholes, vague, ambigious language and contradictions" found in the rules she says. The committee also proposes moving the student government filing deadline and election up one week to ''allow more time to deal with any grievances'' that might result from the election Johnson says. An election earlier in Spring Term would allow for a repolling of the student body if necessary. If the changes in the election rules By-laws are ratified, the new deadlines will be effective immediately. The filing deadline for students interested in ASLCC positions will be noon, April 5. Interested students may pick up information packets at the ASLCC office 479 Center Bldg. or at the Student Activities office, second floor, Center Building.

Skagit Valley brought to Lane an eighth place NWAACC ranking, three sixfooters and some partisan fans, and left with a ticket to Ellensburg, Washington for the eight-team NW AACC playoffs. But the highly favored Cardinals were in a dogfight from the opening tipoff, which Lane controlled. points, 14 rebounds). Lane's compact 2-3 zone contained Swartz and her 6' 4" teammate Linda Anderson (0 points, 4 rebounds). The Titan offense was expertly controlled by Camee Pupke who, when she wasn't scoring her 10 points, found the open person and allowed LCC to get good shots. Unfortunately, the Titans hit only 36 percent of their field goals, but did hold the visiting Cardinals to 31 • per.cent from the floor. Lane hit only 19 of 30 free-throws (63 percent), but outrebounded the much taller Cardinals 57-50, as Shari Rose grabbed 10 and Pupke had seven. "I feel like we won in every way but the score,'' said Titan Coach Sue Thompson. ''We outrebounded them, played good defense and got good shots.

The Titans failed to score on their first possession and eventually fell behind, 8-2. They clawed their way back and trailed by only two at halftime, 32-30. The game stayed intense as both teams traded baskets early in the second half, but then Skagit Valley built up a comfortable 54-44 advantage. The Titans caught a brief second wind and stormed to within three, at 54-51, when Jayne Hoyle got the most critical two of her game-high 23 points as she nailed a 19-footer with two seconds remaining on the 30-second shot clock. As the clock wound down, the game seemed to get closer and closer. Lane got within two, but was forced to foul as 15 seconds showed. The Cardinals' Lisa Love stepped to the foul line and sank a pair to put Skagit Valley up, 61-57. Lane answered right back, but had to foul again, and again it was Love hitting two freethrows and making the final tally 63-59.

All four-year and community colleges from Oregon, and several teams from Washington will participate in the events at Hayward Field. Lyndell Wilken, Women's Track and Field coach, says the season is "just getting rolling.'' The pre-season meets "are a low-key approach that allows the team to ''try our new things and improve their techniques'' before the season begins. A high turn-out this spring boosted the team roster from 18 last year to 31 members, with several more athletes expected from the basketball teams when that season ends. Wilken says this depth will enable her to '' run three or four people in almost every event, and allow us to rest people for certain meets." During the regular season the team is limited to a 28 member squad at its meets. The coaching staff is also larger this spring, with the addition of Fred Spiekerman and Larry Callaway. LCC's five assistant coaches volunteer their time, and their efforts will ''round out the program nicely, and take the pressure off me," says Wilken. "I'll stay with the distance events and overall conditioning of the team." Wilken adds that she is "trying to find a coach for every event.'' Overall, Wilken assesses the team as ''much stronger in sprints and throws than ever before.'' She also predicts that Heptathelete, seven-event Vicki Spiekerman, who placed fourth in the region last year as a freshman, will better her score in the events this season. In the distance events two sophomores, Pan Vasey and Jeanie Higinbotham, are close to the school record in the 1500 meter run. This record was set last year by freshman Julie Zeller, who is now on the OSU track team. A large group of returning sophomores gives LCC strength in the sprint events. Debbie Daily, Dierde Thomas, Cathy Wright, and Angie Ross are LCC's fastest, and Wilken says that "many others will add depth.'' Pre-season meets end with the Oregon Open on March 10. The regular season begins March 31 at Roseburg in a meet with Mt. Hood and Umqua Community Colleges. Meets are scheduled every weekend in April and May. conference champions, faces this season without the five team members who helped to set 12 new school records last year. "It's tough to better that team's accomplishments," says Harland Yriarte, men's track and field coach. "We have people to match the quality of the last year, but not its depth." The first outdoor, preseason meet is the Linfield Icebreaker on Saturday, March 3, followed by the Oregon Open on March 17 at Hayward Field. Yriarte predicts Mt. Hood will be tough competition, "Mt. Hood has a lot of depth, they're the pre-season favorite based on who they recruited.'' The first meet of the season is March 31, in Roseburg, where LCC will compete with Umpqua CC and Mt. Hood CC.

START YOUR CAREER AT CORNISH software that I have been discussing during the last three weeks. Basically, a data-base is an organized collection of information related in one way or another, that can be referenced, retrieved and updated. For instance, a telephone book is a data-base with which everyone is familiar. It is a collection of names, addresses and phone numbers. When we wish to access this data-base ("access this data-base" is computer jargon for find a phone number) we look for the person's last name, which is listed alphabetically. In computer talk the name would be the KEY by which we find the information we are looking for. Another example • of a common data-base is the dictionary. This time our KEY would be the word which would lead us to its definition. On the home front, a data-base system could simplify your life and also make it more productive. Anything you do which involves lists of information of any kind would benefit. For instance, in my house I could really use a data-base system to keep track of the hundreds of books I own. I could break them down by author and by topic -- those would be my KEYS. That Thursday, March 8 • ART /DESIGN PORTFOLIO REVIEWS 3 - 7 pm. MUSIC/THEATER AUDITIONS 3 - 7 pm. DANCE AUDITIONS 5pm.

It might be that the pencil and paper you've been using is quite adequate. Of course if you're like me, you will do it just for the challenge, and because you're an efficiency freak. You will have to ask yourself a few questions before you go shopping for a data-base management system, such as: • How much information will I want to include on the data-base -- this is somewhat determined by the size of your computer memory or disk drive unit. • What kinds of data do I want to record (alphabetic, numeric) • What kind of user interface do I need -- if you are a beginner you'll want it to be menu driven. As I mentioned before, data-base management can be a complicated matter so you'll need to do a little more research on the topic before you are an expert. This article has been just the tip of the iceberg, just enough to pique your curiosity and to shed some light on what data-base management is and what is can do for you. Election March 27_ Candidates vie for board positions by Holly Halverson TORC H Staff Writer A businessman, a building contractor, and a postal worker are candidates in the LCC Board of Education election scheduled for March 27.

Jung, or what books I owned that were about symbolism. The manual alternative of climbing through boxes upon boxes buried deep in my garage makes me a little less eager to find these things out. Other uses would be cataloging recipes, or for that matter cataloging any hobby involving collections such as art, stamps, and coins. Bird watching is an area where hobbyists have benefited from data-base systems. They can enter the bird's name, where they saw it, what time of the year it was, what the weather was like, its sex, or whatever detail is important to them. My husband, who teaches filmmaking, could set up a system to keep track of the hundreds of films he has seen, using the film title, director and actors as KEYS. He could include a synopsis of each film plot and whether he liked it or not. Sports enthusiasts could keep track of statistics on their favorite teams. The list of ways to utilize a data-base system is endless and limited only by your imagination. As you may have guessed, setting up a data-base management system initially can be very time consuming. You really have to decide whether those lists make the difference.

Manley, a former LCC physical science teacher, is one of the owners of the Cookie Cottage and is president of the Valley River Center Merchants Asociation. He sees the Board position as an "opportunity to contribute something to the welfare of the community and LCC," and wants to see LCC ''continue making the impact it has on the community." Two candidates contend for the Zone 1, or western district. Barbara Doster, a Mapleton Post Master, currently holds the Zone 1 position. She replaced Edward Cooper in December. "All of my family have attended LCC at one time or another, so it (taking the Board position) was kind of like giving something back,'' Doster says. She wants to continue as a Board member because she ''loves it" and finds it "challenging and very interesting." George Oswald opposes Doster. Oswald is a retired Air Force officer and Viet Nam veteran who holds an LCC degree in Construction Technology. Oswald is running because he believes that ''if a person has the time, he should put out for the community,'' and right now he "can devote some time and can do a good job." Oswald also believes his experience with young people while in the service would add to his perspective as a Board member.

The reception, sponsored by LCC's student government, included a slide lecture by the artist on the history of her printmaking. Funkhouser, originally a painter in "abstract expressionism,'' says she abandoned painting and switched to prints after graduating from Portland's Museum Art School. Her first prints concentrated on "minimalism." Her latest works, however, are more baroque, displaying increased imagery and emphasizing her '' fascination with floating," the artist says. She has received numerous awards and grants for her work in prints, including a $2,000 grant from the Oregon Arts Commission fellowship in 1982. Funkhouser says most artists who are awarded this money use it for travel, but she chose instead to rent a studio and continue working. Funkhouser is one -of 15 artists who helped get Portland's Blackfish Gallery started in 1979. She says there are 28 members in this co-op gallery and each member is required to pay dues to show their work. Her prints will be on display in the LCC gallery through March 9,which is open to the public Monday through Thursday from 8 am to 10 pm, and Friday, 8 am to 5 pm. The TORCH March 1 - See the sites at a rock bottom • pnce by Melissa Sparks for the TORCH A six day geology field trip in June will offer students onsite experience in the study of minerals and rock formations. Mike Mitchell, an LCC science instructor, conducts the trip yearly, visiting as many as eight different sites -mostly of volcanic origin. Some sites include Smith Rocks, Hole-in-the-Ground, Ft. Rock, and the High Desert Museum in Bend. In addition to these stops, other places of study may include the head waters of the Metolius River, Newberry Crater and Paulina Lake, Cove Palisades and the "highlight," Crater Lake. Tentative plans have the student group leaving Eugene on the Thursday or Friday of Spring term firials, and returning five or six days later during the vacation week. Cost of the trip is tuition plus $8 for the four credit hours of science earned during the trip. The student can pay just for the hours of credit earned during the week, or for part of a full-time program during the summer term. There are no prerequisites for this outdoor program. by Joe Dixon for the TORCH A new 16-member French club has begun meeting at LCC. The idea of a French Club was suggested by French II student Dorcas Fromdahl, and French Class members were "quite receptive of the idea," she says. The club has no regular meeting schedule, since the personal schedules of the members make it difficult to find a time when all are free to attend. But members get together in the cafeteria at the "French Table" (designated by a French flag) from 11-12 Monday through Thursday to practice speaking French. The club is "quite unstructured." Members communicate in their classes, and attend meetings informally. Fromdahl notes that the club ''works better'' due to the informality of its structure. The club has no elected officers as of yet, but elections are scheduled to be held spring term. Club members have chosen not to accept funding from the ASLCC as do many other clubs on campus. In their case, says Fromdahl, the benefits don't outweigh the requirements.

''Even more important to vocational education, Mr. Riddle has put his corporate money where his mouth is and his company has hired a significant number of Lane graduates for his company's claim staff,'' says an instructor who nominated Riddle for the award. In nominating Ray Nott, a student cited the ''warmth, truth, and unselfish attitude Ray has for everyone he meets.'' Nott has been with LCC since 1965. He formerly owned Ray's Appliance Service. He also has helped with local competition for the Vocational Industrial Clubs of America. A student nominating Nott emphasized the instructor's accessibility, ability to find good in people and situations, and mentor role for students in LCC Appliance Repair Technician Program.

In nominating Harcleroad, a colleague said a major conbeen has tribution Harcleroad's direction in developing a curriculum that allows students to write the practical nurse exam at the end of their first year or continue with a second year to test for their registered nurse exam.
