TORCH Editor Next September a student from LCC and a student from a junior college in Japan may trade places and live and study at each other's school. LCC and Nagasaki Wesleyan Junior College (NW JC) officials have completed an agreement that will allow one student from each college to attend the other college for one year, says Vice President for Instruction Gerald Rasmussen. Each institution will provide tuition scholarships to the exchange students, and assistance with housing: The NWJC scholarship will cover dormitory costs, while LCC's commitment is to arrange for a host family which will provide housing for the Japanese student. The exchange student will be responsible for his/her own transportation costs, books, food, and miscellaneous expenses. NWJC is located in the town of Isahaya, 15 miles outside of Nagasaki on the southern island of Kyushu. Isahaya's population is 80,000. NWJC was founded by Christian missionaries in 1881. The college is small -- about 150 students -- 80 percent of them women. The faculty is composed of 12 full-time and about 30 part-time instructors, Rasmussen says. NW- i~~- ~l,\ : // /,0\ 1 establish exchange program by Chris Gann ~ ~ 1, 6 \: At NW JC, the LCC student will be expected to complete 10 required courses (taught mostly in English) and five electives (taught in . Japanese). Requirements include Japanese language courses in grammar, vocabulary, conversation and writing as well as ''culture'' courses; the cultural courses include flower arrangement, tea ceremony,and calligraphy. The LCC exchange student will also be expected to work a maximum of 10 hours a week as an English instructional assistant, Rasmussen says. Rasmussen has appointed a selection committee that will choose LCC's exchange student. He describes the new program as "a neat opportunity" for _LCC students. Knowledge of the Japanese language would be "an advantage, but not a requirement" for a student to be selected for the program. "As a matter of fact, it would certainly be useful,'' he says. Rasmussen has scheduled a public meeting at 2:30 p.m on April 10 in the Board Room of the Administration Building to explain the program and answer questions interested students may have about it. Application forms will be available at that time. ... ) •' t.::Jt~ ) if 2 -~~ ·~ \ • ! ,-/. ~· \ ,., j • • .. /fi~ ;,~~ } *illt ·.,. · ~·····. < , / · .,, ~ It's academics, not activities, at LCC Commentary by Mike Green TORCH Staff Writer From all walks of life, people attend Lane Community College with hopes of obtaining an education and forging a better life. Housewives, construction workers, yes, everyone from beekeepers to undertakers are all part of what is known as the "Student Body." In all, 25,000 people will attend LCC this year, and in some way will have been a part of campus life at LCC. Psychologist Eric Berne, who's studied group dynamics, would have a field day analyzing the LCC social atmosphere. At first glance, LCC appears to be a maze of social structures with little common ground. I wondered, "Does anyone around here have anything in common?" But after some study, I suggest this theory: Place MWF people in a separate category from UH people, then divide them further into 11 separate catgories according to specific majors. At that point the social structure can be broken down by determining how many people are in each building throughout the day. And there we have LCC' s social structure, according to who is where at what time. For example, there is the MWF 11 a.m. cafeteria crowd, the UH noon PE building crowd, neither of which should be confused with the 10 a.m. computer science crowd, or the noon mechanics crowd, which usually goes to the cafeteria at 1 p.m. Of course those are a lot of crowds, and they seem very different than those found on other college campuses. Carla Barton, a 20 year old second year performing arts major, transferred here from the University of Oregon. She says people are younger there, and more into ·the social scene. "People care more about what other people think at the U of 0. LCC has a lot of older people who are just here to go to school, and that's it." She insists LCC needs more activities for the younger crowd, and that these would lead to a better campus life. OK, disregard the preceding social theory. Let's put campus life into terms of age, involvement outside of school, and interest in activites. Chris Chisholm a 30 year old broadcast major, is currently a mill worker who's supporting two kids. "If an activity was during the time I'm here, I'd take part. But after I leave I go to work and don't have time for activities." So this may be some substantiation for the age/involvement theory, but how can that be tied in with people's interest in activities? "There's no way to have activities everyone will like,'' claims 21 year old business major Carla Grandahl, "most people I know want to go to class and go home. All the social interaction is done outside of school. LCC is strictly an academic atmosphere." What, for heaven's sake, can be done for campus life at LCC? "Have more activities," she suggests, "with much more publicity. That's a start.'' Then let's put it this way: The campus life at LCC includes many groups -- people under 30 who don't like to dance, people over 30 who do like to dance, people who have jobs or families and are unable to attend outside activities, people who couldn't care less, people who voted for George McGovern, people, people, and people. Now that's a lot of different people. Perhaps 18 year old business major Cindy Payne says it best. "People come from so many different backgrounds that it's hard to get everyone together. It's like no one wants to acknowledge anyone else's interests. Maybe if everyone would just stop and take the time to take an interest in someone else our campus life would be a lot closer knit, and we wouldn't have to work to create one." Page 2 April 5 - Ap:il 11, 1984 The TORCH Free For -All Editorials, letters, commentary What's so great about LCC? Quality instruction is the major factor by Chris Gann TORCH Editor Why all the Love Letters? Each month the college prepares an information packet for the seven members of the Board of Education and the press. It's usually a stapled, half-inch thick collection of staff reports, communications from the community, and back-up material for the monthly board meeting agenda. And it always contains at least a half dozen letters of appreciation to LCC. Many of the letters, from business prof es si o nal s and educators, Letters What is a Gene Maudlin ? To the Editor: In response to the March 27, Register-Guard editorial on "Why A CUB?" Do Oregon consumers -- people who are busy in their daily lives just trying to get by -- have the time to understand or question why their utility bills are skyrocketing? Do one in five people know who Gene Maudlin is? Or that he's appointed by the governor to ensure that regulated utilities provide consumers with adequate service at reasonable rates while allowing companies the opportunity to earn a fair return on their investments? : Oregon's system of utility regulation is unique. Where other states have three- and five-member commissions elected by those consumers they represent, Oregon has a single commissioner appointed by the governor, who ' is given broad authority to regulate public utilities and transportation industries in the state. However, the Eugene RegisterGuard thinks it ironic to see such support for a Citizen's Utility Board (CUB) in Lane County, where the voters chose to have direct control over someone appointed by the governor. We find ourselves in a difficult situation with the recent divestiture and subsequent phone rate increases under a recent PUC Order No. 83-835 (Dec. 21, 1983) by then-PUC Commissioner John Lobdell. In this order, he instituted measured business service and only after calling and writing Senator Hatfield was I able to obtain this and one other order, but who am I? Just your average ratepaying consumer -- who is stuck as of Jan. 1, 1984 paying a $23.7 million revenue increase to Pacific Northwest Bell! I have some interesting questions about PUC Order No. 83-835 that I do thank LCC staff members for sponsoring a "well-run" or "outstanding" seminar or conference. Often, a handwritten note from a former student is included in the mailing that says something like this excerpt from a November letter: "It is comforting and a big help to many people to have a resource like you around.'' What is it about LCC that elicits so many words of praise? Is it the members of the board and administrators who carefully direct the college? Is it the high-tech, stateof-the-art equipment available for students to train on? Is °it the broad curriculum and range of services LCC offers to students and community members? Or is it just a knack for putting together a good conference? I imagine these are all important factors in LCC's positive public image. But the most important ingredient for this image is the instruction LCC students receive. Instruction -- you know, from teachers. think need to be answered before the implementation of a Business Measured Service as of July 1, 1984: How many millions of dollars will be passed on to voters through increased phone rates for those public institutions (schools, libraries, police, fire-rescue) whose community-based interaction is a necessity? PNB, a natural monopoly, is the only phone company allowed to operate in this LATA (geographical area). How is this a competitive environment? If a business doesn't want BMS, what other choices besides disconnection does it have? What is meant by business in Oregon? Why are decisions made that affect ratepayers and then public hearings scheduled? In this order, page 13 (next to last paragraph), Lobdell states: "No exemption should be made for nonprofit associations. These associations are organized for many purposes, some of them for profit-making motives. Virtually all of these organizations may be worthy of an exemption, but the Legislature should be the one to determine whether there should be an exemption and just which organizations should be exempted." What are the names of those nonprofit organizations with profitmaking motives he refers to? What proof did he offer to support his statements? Who was he representing in this order? Why did he resign right after making these orders? Why do we need a CUB in Oregon? Why don't we just elect a public utility commission to represent us instead? Who is Gene Maudlin and what will he do in the name of those he's supposed to represent? the people at Lane. To those of you who have not left your belongings around places on this campus, I'd like to congratulate your for being responsible with you valuables. You've missed the heartaches and frustrations that "forgetful" folks like myself, have experienced. To you who could relate to the theft experience, I sympathize with you. To the minority of you who are not sensitive to other's needs by taking their belongings to satisfy your own needs or pleasures, you've been causing a lot of pain and problems. As a theft victim, I've experienced anger, anxiety and disappointment. Last year, a pair of my school pants were taken from my unlocked locker. I had no idea that someone would actually steal them. Last term, I left my umbrella in one of the cubby holes in the book store. When I came back, it was gone ... Richard Gold Thefts cause heartache, frustration To the Editor: I'd like to address this letter to all of Teachers are rarely described as "high tech" or "state-of-the-art." Rarely do they make million dollar decisions. But their product, quali- By now, you'd think I would have learned to be more careful. Unfortunately, I found myself in similar situation again. On the first day of school, I left my wallet in the women's restroom on the 2nd floor of the Center Building. The wallet mysteriously disappeared, then reappeared two days later. I thank the unknown thief for having some consideration to return part of the wallet. I had hoped she would have the heart to return the wallet and everything in it, but much was taken out. The stolen articles were money, a bus pass and pictures. I had approximately $40 in cash. All of it was stolen. This really hurts becasue it was to be used for groceries for my family of 16 people .. The people who steal obviously do not have respect for other folks nor do they care about the damages they could cause ... Please think twice before you commit theft. Most of the students at LCC are not well off. They have needs like yourself. Many students have to pay for their own education, therefore money is a scarcity ... In some cases, it may not just affect the owner of the item. Finally, you respon~ible people can help prevent theft problems by returning lost items to Security or to a closeby department. We, the victims can use some simple c~ , / ·)J ~ ½ ~i I {; A) 1--.. ,,. ~ C1(~j Blackbird OR.F f/!@,, rules of thumb to save ourselves from thefts: • Never leave our things unattended. • Get lockers and lock them up. • Never carry valuable items such as money (a large amount), jewelry to school. • Follow signs such as "lock your lockers" or "take your things to stall" • Respect others by returning found items. Little kids steal because they don't know any better. They think of themselves and don't realize their stealing could hurt someone else. You, the thieves, are adults, you should know better. As we grow up, we need to give up our childish ways. Come on "kids", grow up. Jennifer Rasmussen Special Ed/Physical therapy Piled higher and deeper To the Editor: Hello, my name is Paul Nevin. I graduated from LCC in 1978, I would like to suggest a political problem for all community college graduates. Employers don't care what someone knows, employers just want a paper saying four, six or eight years of college. I have been attending college for 11 years, yet I don't qualify for a piece of paper that says that I have gone more than two years. The reason companies in the "system" want more than a two year paper? For knowledge? No. They want the paper so they are justified when they charge more for their products and services to their customers-you. This separates the haves from the have-nots. Look at your own city, county, and state governments. Years ago, they started to copy the federal government in "hoodwinking" the public into thinking government employees are better than the rest of us. '1\ A- {:2 ty instruction, is the major factor in LCC's having a good reputation. This month students have a chance to nominate instructors for the LCC ''Outstanding Instructor of Year'' award. If you believe one of your instructors ''exhibits teaching excellence'' give her or him a nomination. In the past eight years those selected as Outstanding In~ structors were Sheila Juba (Language Arts), Lealand Halberg (Mathematics), Jay Marston (Science), Freeman Rowe (Science), Jim Evans (Business), Allan Gubrud (Science), Nita Bunn"ell (Study ,;S~ ~ .f'i \~ ~ -~ ~ )= _ %: - l .. .:; Skills) and John Loughlin (Mathematics). So reward some of the quality that special instructor gives to you each day -- pick up a green form from any instructional department office and nominate that instructor by April 14. As you recall most of our past "great" leaders never went to any college. Many hardly went to school. Many of our present House and Senate leaders never went to college for a legitimate college degree. They paid their home town college to "honor" them with a Phd. (piled higher and deeper) degree. Look at the Eugene City Council; many do not hold legitimate degrees, yet their own rules expect that all new city employees have degrees. I want to ask you current students a LCC to fight the insane requirement continued on page 3 The TORCH EDITOR: Chris Gann ASSOC/A TE EDITORS: Jackie Barry, Ellen Platt PHOTO EDITOR: Mike Newby SPORTS EDITOR: Dennis Monen STAFF WRJTERS:Frank Nearing, Holly Halverson, Ed Bishop, Mike Green, Nick Garman, Paul Mc:Farlane RESEARCH: Ed Bishop STAFF PHOTOGRAPHERS: Dennis Monen, Michael Wallace, Troy Humes, Gary Kutcher, Gary Breedlove, James Hi Sheng, Donna Hill PRODUCTION AD VISER: Dorothy Wearne PRODUCTION COORDINATOR: Chris Woods GRAPHICS: Scott Sonek PRODUCTION: Judith S.

Student government means you ASLCC is a joke if you want it that way by Cindy Weeldryer ASLCC Senator "Student government is a joke, it's a waste of time to vote." During last year's ASLCC election I heard this comment voiced many times in many different ways. "Why bother, I'm not going to be here next year so I don't care who wins." This was another frequent response when I asked students to vote. Student apathy is nothing new to LCC, being a commuter school there are many students interested only in going to classes and going home. Often LCC students have families and/or jobs which prevent them from getting involved in extracurricular activites. The ASLCC fills the gap and provides student representation, services, and programs for all LCC students. The Associated Students of Lane Community College is you -- the student who pays the $3 mandatory student fee (MSF) each term to fund ASLCC programs and services. The ASLCC Senate is a group of students elected by the student body to administer the funds generated by the MSF. To some people this is the only function of the Senate, to others it is a major responsibility but not the sole function, and to a majority of students, the Senate is only a lesson in "sandbox politics" and has little influence or power to change things at LCC. Student government does have the potential to be influential at Lane. The Senate is an elected legislative body that represents the entire student population, regardless if every student votes or not, the numbers alone indicate a certain degree of power. The ASLCC budget of $75,000 also gives student government a substantial amount of influence. Money is not the key issue needed to create a representative body; student needs and concerns should be the main focus in the upcoming spring elections. The Senate should continue to strive for sound fiscal handling of its budget and should make it a priority to give LCC students the best buy for their investment. In addition, the Senate needs to continue to voice student concerns to the Administration. While the ASLCC cannot create sweeping changes in administrative policy, it can let its influence be know.n in such areas as curriculum design, teacher evaluations, textbook prices, and food services' quality and cost. The Senate should improve the flow of information between the Administration and the students. If changes cannot be made, at least an understanding of why things are the way they are can be effectively communicated. The ASLCC is influential because it represents LCC students -- the very reason for the college's existence.

Elections can be an enjoyable learning experience in the democratic process, past ASLCC elections have proved this. Recently, however, poorly run ASLCC elections have created distrust and paranoia among many students. This year's Senate has strived to improve its election methods by rewriting the ambiguous election By-Laws, numbering the ballots, holding earlier elections to allow more time to utilize the improved grievance procedure should violations occur. It's now up to you -- the LCC student -- to read the TORCH and Voter's Pamphlet and talk to the candidates about these issues. Avoid voting blindly and, worse yet, asking a student poll worker who's the best candidate. One other area of student government influence is in the local, state, and national elections. The ASLCC has the ability to provide vital information about candidates and issues by providing literature in the Student Resource Center and by inviting candidates to speak at LCC. The potential influence of the ASLCC next year depends largely on LCC students enrolled this term. Many students are graduating this spring and have a good idea of what the student needs are at Lane. They can leave behind a legacy of effective student government, should they elect to vote this month. The students who will be here next year owe it to themselves to determine what issues are important, read candidate's platforms and ask- questions. Student government is only a joke when LCC students make it a joke. If you care about your financial aid, and rising college costs it would be wise to create a student government that will utilize its potential to be a strong, decisive, and influential voice at LCC. Ultimately, student government is the student body. Beware of candidates who are quick to criticize current ASLCC programs and services without offering / easible solutions to the problems.

Edward Nevin Riverside, CA Bikers get bad press To the Editor: In response to Mary Lemon's letter of March 1, I'd like to say I'm glad she had a good time at the Rhody Run last year, and thank you for the message about us, uh, "bikers." But why do you suppose that she and her friend were afraid at just the thought of, uh, "bikers"? They had "heard" bad things about them, but did not really know if any of these things were true. Well, it's not hard to understand where these ideas might have come from . There have been small groups of people who have caused trouble, and displayed behavior that others found repugnant. The main source of transportation for most of these people was by motorcycle. Media stories, splashed with sensationialism, gave the accounts more press than they deserved, but then what's new? I doubt if these people were ever even one percent of the motorcycling population in this country. So why do people continue to be frightened of the, uh, "biker"? Villans are frequently needed for the exciting worlds created in Hollywood for our entertainment. But how are we to identify villans of the rape, rob, and pillage variety, if they look like you or me? Give them black leather jackets and motorcycles, and we spot them right away. So frequent is this picture, that I get the feeling viewers must be in agreement with it, for there are certainly not many complaining against it. But just think of the outcry if the typical negative image was a black, Jewish, lesbian, capitalist, business executive. So what we are seeing is a bigoted distortion of a minority within a minority.

But the extraordinary feats of these four young men, with their kidnext-door looks and nice personalities, were overlooked, for our news was, instead, filled with the scandalous reports of other athletes, whose upper lips it seems were dusted with cocaine. These few examples should serve to remind us of distinguishing responsible, objective reporting, and stories biased with emotional appeal and sensationialism. Our thoughts should also be so tempered. Motorcyclists are friends, neighbors, relatives. Someone you know rides a motorcycle. Now if I could only convince my mother I am not a neophyte Hell's Angel.

By May 1, KZEL will be moved into a newly remodelled facility at 2100 West 11th (the old Medical Service~ Building) -- creating what Pappas claims will be the largest radio facility in the country (12,000 square feet). Two production rooms and the broadcast booth will be visible to passing motorists who will be able to wave to their favorite DJ's. According to Pappas, radio stations KBOS in Visalia/Fresno and KJOY in Stockton use this type of promotions technique with great success and no pro- blems. This is one of several promotional "improvements" which will make KZEL more "visible" according to Promotions Manager John Pappas, who is Mike's son. "Eugene will be proud of the new, modern KZEL facility,'' adds the father. Mike Pappas began his communications career 30 years ago at the age of 16 as a co-host, with his twin brother, of a San Joaquin Valley radio show called "Pete and Mike's Dance Time.'' After a four year break for college and the Marine Corp, Pappas became sales manager, station manager and, subsequently, general manager of numerous radio stations in the Western United States and Hawaii. At the age of 27, he became president of Pappas Electronics, a family business that built five radio and two television stations and had ''numerous other investments.'' Pappas sold some of his California interests and took a four and a half year vacation. He then began researching for new markets and learned of KZEL's availability. KBDF still broadcasts at 1280 on the AM dial but the call letters have been changed to KYKN and the format is now country music instead of all news. Constant Communication moved KYKN's studios to the historic Mathews House in Coburg, which also houses KDUK. KYKN will broadcast the remainder of the Portland Trail Blazer games. I'\ )\ illy .

The TORCH April 5 - 1 p ·1-n, 1984 Page 5 Nobel Laureate keynotes Fair by Ed Bishop TORCH Staff Writer The value of global sharing will be a recurring theme at this year's Earth Fair '84. Several speakers of international distinction will be featured at LCC during the April 16-20 Earth Week ac- tivities. Topping the list is the recipient of two Nobel prizes, Linus Pauling, a native Oregonian who rose to prominence in the field of chemistry at an early age by making several essential discoveries about the nature of matter. Dr. Pauling will speak at noon Wednes- Students and faculty are concert perfect Groups of individual musical performances entitled "Segues" will be presented by LCC performing arts students again this term. "Segues," which were started in 1975 by music instructor Dr. Barbara Myrick, are so named because each separate performer is immediately followed by another. The performances vary from classical piano solos to jazz rock fusion ensembles with upcoming events including Julie Larsen playing a piano piece entitled "Reverie" and Robin Murphy performing Dan Fogelberg's song, "Looking for a Lady." Performing Arts students as well as instructors are encouraged to attend and provide feedback for the performers. Performers acquire stage deportment and the audience learns how to be perceptive and respectful, as well. The next progression on the performance ladder for the student might be as a member of the Symphonic Band, the Chamber Choir or the Jazz Band. "Segues" has a different faculty supervisor each year with this year's supervisor being Wayte Kirchner. Performances will be held on Wednesdays April 11, May 9, and May 23 at 4 p.m. There is no admission charge. The LCC music faculty will present the last in a series of three concerts this season on Thursday, April 5, at 8 p.m. The concert -- free of charge -will be held in the Blue Door theatre downstairs in the LCC Performing Arts building. Saxophonist Tom Bergeron will ·open the concert with a performance of the Sonata by Bernhard Heiden. Marybeth Wilde, pianist, will then play Chopin's Nocturne, op. 27, no. 2, in D-flat Major, said by Schumann to be "one of the most heartfelt and · transfigured creations'' in music. A celebrated piece by Michio Miyagi, founder .of the New Japanese Music movement, will foliow. Written for koto (a zither-like instrument) and shakuhachi flue (end-blown, bamboo), "Spring Sea" will be performed by John Jarvie on guitar and Barbara Myrick on baroque flute. They will also play Leonard Handler's 1982 Suite. Next, pianist Joyce Cameron will play the Sonata in B-flat Major, composed in Paris by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart when he was in his early twenties. The concert will conclude with a performance of J .S. Bach's Cantata "Non sa che sia do lore," sung by soprano Diana Jackson. A secular piece, this cantata expresses the contrasting sorrow and joy of his friends when a university student must leave school to return home. Jackson is accompanied by an ensemble of flute, strings, and harpsichord. Mon. • Thur. 6:15 & 8:45 Fri., Sat. & Sun. 7:15 & 9:45 Sat. & Sun.

Page 6 April 5 - A p1 ril 11, 1984 The TORCH S~o rts Former semi-pro could add punch to LCC baseball Feature by Mike Green TORCH Staff Writer Combine athletic talent with dedication, and most likely the result will be a successful athlete. Add humility, subtract arrogance and behold a successful human being. LCC baseball player Tim Riles is a mixture of all the right ingredients, and an allegory of dreams, responsibility, and changing priorities. Before graduating from Springfield High School in 1982, Riles compiled awards and honors in three sports. Among those: 5AAA 1st team all_-league defensive back (football), 5AAA 2nd team quarterback all-league (football), 5AAA 3rd team allleague (basketball), 5AAA 1st team second base (baseball), 1st team all-leaj!;ue golden glove (baseball), and second base all-state Shrine game. '' At that time I really wanted to make a career of either basketball or baseball,'' he admits. "My dad played semi-pro for the White Sox, and he was always there to encourage me. I guess it was kind of a dream we both shared." As time for summer league baseball grew near, Riles was contacted by two scouts, Bill Harper from the Philadelphia Phillies, and Norm King from the Milwaukee Brewers. "I eventually decided to attend the Milwaukee camp,'' says Riles. "We played every day, so we got a lot of practice.'' During the summer, Riles was placed on one of the Brewers' Canadian farmclubs. He spent the entire summer in Canada, while Oregon colleges were giving scholarships to players from the sum- [A8LCC LEGAL &EQVIC~ IT Free legal services ll for registered LCC students ll IT rr H (1.'.1 Services include ·;?, .: -J. !• rrll ] -' , •Routine Legal matters ~ ~ \~ :· - _• ~ (uncontested divorce, name changes, wills, etc.) t: / ·.. • -:... ~ f • Advocacy (tenants nghts, c;;,7 ~~ welfare, etc.) t-~· Student ~\'y .~- ~1•Advice and referral f.

"I was playing semi-pro, but when the league ended its season in the fall I would still have to go to college.'' Because he wasn't around, Riles missed out on major college scholarships, and elected to follow his farm-club coach ! .. ~ ! ~ 0 £ ~ f Tim Riles to Umpqua Community College, where the Brewer coach also taught and eoached. "I decided that it was the best place to be at the time. I played basketball as well as baseball, but by the end of the year I was ready to make the switch to Lane.'' In an age when athletes are quick to emphasize their own ability, Riles speaks of the ability of others. "I respect each guy on the team, and I believe if we play to our potential we will place first in our league. We've got a lot of talent on our team." That's refreshing coming from a player who might have taken Milwaukee to the World Series. March 31, in Roseburg, where they defeated Mt. Hood and Umpqua Community Colleges. the I 00 and 200 meter running events at 10.07 and 22.4. Dennis also finished at the top in the 400 meter relay. Mark Dennis led the way in The Titan men showed plenty of strength in the sprints and distance runs. LCC scored a total of 107 points, beating MHCC's second place (49) and Umpqua (41). Lane shows strength by Dennis Monen TORCH Sports Editor Both the men and women on Lane's track and field teams had their first NWAACC victory Saturday, Riles' talent is an asset to a strong LCC baseball program. He leads the team in five offensive categories, including eight RBI's in only seven games. He maintains a whopping .455 batting average. "He is a valuable player," comments Coach Fisher, "he does a good job defensively, he can bunt, run, and makes few mental or physical mistakes. He always gives 110 percent and his enthusiasm is contagious to the other players.'' ,n first meet rr ll Women show strength In the women's events, LCC' s Michelle Souder and Diedra Thomas came away with victories in the field and sprint events. IT ~=~I~==~~==~~==~. Your choice 10% off sticker prices on all clothing. Infant - Adult Souder led the tempo, hurling the shot put 40.7 1/2 feet and chucked the discus 126.1 1/2 feet. Thomas made her sweeps in the I 00 meter sprint, finishing at 12.9 and jetted through the 200 meters in 27 .0. LCC scored 80 points; MHCC 41 and UCC 25. t) - "No," he replies, "my family comes first, and there's no way I could take care of them going from farm-club to farm-club in the circuit. I will play baseball forever, but it will be strictly for enjoyment." His remarkable .426 batting average slipped to .250, and his GP A, which he had maintained throughout high school, slipped as well. "We played Lane last year, and I got to see a lot of the people I had played in 5AAA, and I thought about how much fun we could have,'' he reflects. "Also I wanted to play with a good shortstop, and Adam Smith was one of the best I had seen. Plus the fact that I was getting kind of homesick.'' Riles contacted Lane Baseball Coach Bobby Fisher about the switch, and Fisher was more than happy to accommodate him. Since coming to LCC, Tim has done a lot of growing up, and reorganized his priorities. He married and became a father -- responsibilities that required Tim to change his goals. '' I've got a family to think about now, so my priorities have definitely changed. Baseball is just a tool to get me through college, but school is first.'' Tim is studying physical education, and wants to coach and teach PE in Lane County. But would he pack up and chase his dreams if Milwaukee offered him a contract? ..,_ ' p$fllbfp,:f;llf.,./ 4740M41N-741-7900 ~ 0 sElf 0 0 Now Is the time to cash In on fashion actlonwear at the Bookstore. 0 SERVE woRd pROCEssiNG •·IBM personal computers • Epson RX-80 p,;nters • Oiablo 630 printer Llnd _featuring...

Camp TORCH Staff Writer (Editor's note: This is the second part of a two-part story explaining the LCC Student Code. Part one focused upon the kinds of conduct that might warrant invoking the code.) In Fall 1983 and Winter 1984 terms at LCC, 10 minor violations of the Student Code were brought to the attention of Vice President for Student Services, Jack Carter. And he believes that the process outlined in the code worked efficiently. He says the goal of the code is to identify what constitutes proper conduct on campus and to clarify what a student's rights are if he/she is accused of being in violation of the code. Due Process • When Carter receives a complaint alleging that a violation has occurred, he notifies the accused student by mail or in person to attend a conference with him. The notification states the nature of the complaint, the nature of the evidence to be presented, and the identity of each witness who will speak against the accused. It also informs the student of his/her right to legal counsel, crossexamination of witnesses and appeals. • But in the event that Carter determines a major violation is alleged, he notifies the accused student that a hearing will be officiated by Henry Douda, director of employee relations. Only two major violations have required a hearing process in the last decade. Hearing's findings against a student, or disciplinary action taken by the college affecting his/her continued enrollment at LCC, may be appealed, says Carter.
