U of O's 'Excursion Fare' plays on LCC stage

The University of Oregon's
University Theatre will give a
special performance of
''Excursion Fare'' -- recently
named the Best Original Play
in the nation by the American
College Theatre Festival -- on
Saturday, April 6, in Eugene.·
The 8 p.m. performance at
LCC's Main Stage Theatre
will be the last before the play
is showcased April 17-18 at the
Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts in Washington,
D.C. University Theatre's entire cast and crew will be flown
to Washington to give two performances at the Kennedy
Center.
Main Stage Theatre Operations Director Dick Reid said
the U of O's spring production
schedule made the Robinson

Theatre unavailable for the
production. "We're happy to
do it," he says. "We're pleased because it's a good play and
we like to have cooperation
between the theater groups in
town."

The University Theatre
agreed to make a $350 contribution to the LCC Music
Scholarship Fund for the use
of the theater that one night.
Money from this fund pays for
individual lessons for advanced music students. "Here was
a way to keep money in that
fund," says Reid.
Tickets are $6 for the
general public and $4 for all
students. They are available at
the UO Robinson Theatre box
office, 686-4191, or the Lane

Community College box office, 726-2202. All seats are
reserved.
''This play represents the
best of university theater
because it is a literate work
that comments in a meaningful and sensitive way on the
human condition," University
Theatre Director Grant
McKernie says.

playwright Dennis Smith,
"Excursion Fare" is a powerful comic-drama about a
group of famous but unlikely
travelers who are stranded in
an unusual railway station.
During the course of the play,
the nature of the station, the
identities of the travelers and
the ultimate destination of the
train they await are revealed.

TORCH Editor

The LCC Board of Education named five finalists for
the job of LCC president after
an executive session on
Wednesday, April' 3.
The candidates hail from as
far as Connecticut and as near
as Eugene.

Kimberly Cavendish will lead the Aerobathon to benefit the Rape Crisis Network.

The Rape Crisis Network
and Aerobicise of Eugene
are teaming up for an
•Aerobathon fund raiser at
Mac Court on Saturday,
April 6.
"It's a party for fitness,"
says Public Relations Director Renee LoPilato, who
also serves as Associate
Coordinator for the
Women's Program at LCC.
"And it's for a dynamite
cause." All proceeds will be
donated to the Rape Crisis
Network.
The Rape Crisis Network
is a seven-year-old, nonprofit social service agency
committed to ending sexual
violence and aiding victims
and their families. Their
services include a 24-hour

crisis line and a community
education-program.
Last year, the Rape Crisis
Network received 1,000
crisis calls and served 4,000
others through its community program.
The Aerobathon will
consist of three forty-five
minute work-outs beginning at 10 a.m.
All fitness levels are
welcome and may participate in all or part of the
work-out. Participants may
register at the door from
9-9:45 a.m. The fee is $9
and includes a T-shirt and
refreshments. Participants
are asked to bring a towel
or mat.
Spectators are welcome,
also, for a minimum dona-

tion of $1.50. They can
"come and hoot and holler
and keep the energy up,''
says LoPilato, who states
that the event should be
visually exciting, as well.
Kimberly Cavendish
operates Aerobicise from a
room adjacent to Pacific
Nautilus. She taught
aerobics at The Workout in
Reno, Nevada and was a
can-can dancer at Le
Moulin Rouge in Paris.
Organizers of this event
hope to make it an annual
happening with other
businesses and aerobic
groups participating next
year. "Like a mini United
Way," states LoPilato.
For more information
call 344-4370.

Question the
policy makers
To the Editor:

I wish to thank Richard
Weiner for · his letter to the
editor on March 7th. He
awakened me from my
political slumber with it, and
prompted me to reply to it.
Knowing Richard (a fellow
engineering student) like I do,
I'm sure he will view my essay
as a basis for further discussion and not just an attack on
his opinion.
What sparked me to reply to
Richard's letter was his apparent intolerance of views
contrary to his own. As I read
his article, I noticed a
discrepancy in his argument
which I'd like to deal with. We
would all agree that war is an
evil thing and that U.S.
policies seem to be executed
poorly in Central America.
But to regard a tool of government (which the U.S. military
is) as a political entity or
power is absurd to me. Even if
the military was a political
body, to restrict its representatives from campus because
it's opinions are unpopular is
hardly reasonable. In fact, it
makes as much sense as an army bombarding a campus.
While on the subject of
bombs, I'd like to establish a
clear perspective on who is
controlling them. If one is inclined to think that any war is
unjustifiable, they are ignoring the fact that people with
power over other people tend
to oppress the latter. From
what I have gathered, Richard
is aware of this. Oppression
can only be resisted or accepted in the short run. The
oppressed can fight or be overrun. With this in mind, I will
not assert the recurring need
for armed conflict any further.
Getting back to the point, I'll
ask, "Did the Pentagon initially decree that bombs be
sent to Central America?"
The answer is, "No." Because
the militay is not a branch of
our government, it is a device
that our government uses. The
highest ranking general is as
much a "pawn" as the lowest
ranking enlisted man. By
definition, the military doesn't
make policy, it follows policy.
(By the way, it is not policy for
a U.S. fighting man to indiscriminately kill noncombative civilians.) So it is
the policy makers that we need
to question and not marine
recruiters doing their job. And
let us question rather than just
react to ;njustice invoked by
our tools.
Before we lay Latin blood at
the President's feet, I would
like us to consider another
poor choice of words.
The label of Ronald
Reagan's "freedom fighters"
given to and accepted by
Nicaraguan insurgents is just

another attempt to name drop.
It reminds me of the use of the
term "Christian" during the
inquisition. I'm not attributing deity to Ron, but I
doubt that he condones butchering babies and other
forms of terrorism. I certainly
wouldn't, even on a bad day.

The one great lesson of Vietnam wasn't simply that public
opinion affects foreign policy.
What happened was that people didn't like seeing real live
war on the tube, so they protested the whole thing. The
U.S. government responded
by limiting strategic goals
(which got a lot of "our boys"
killed) and leaving a group of
people to be overrun by the
''Commie Horde''. If you
doubt the validity of that
statement, ask a boat person
why he or she left ''home.''
This country's constitution
is a pretty fair Gust) document
and it upholds a set of values
that are dear to me. It lists certain inalienable (universal)
rights and attempts to maintain these rights for us with a
system of checks and balances.
One who wishes to undermine
or subvert a system often uses
tactics which interfere with
that system's machinery (the
tools and processes of the
government). If the ideology is
sound (as it is with our system)
then the antagonist's only option is to keep the system's
citizens in the dark about what
the ideology is.
Therefore, given that we are
dealing with a workable
system and Ric;hard's intent is
to secure what is agreeable to
most of the Salvadorans, the
issue becomes discovering the
intent of U.S. policy. If
Richard has reason to believe
that Corporate America is forcing the government to
become expansionistic, (for
example), why is he attacking
the machinery? Why not confront Ol!lr leaders in a dialogue
rather than protest? But if he
uses emotional terms like
"invasion" to describe what
may be intervention, he is
clouding the issue. This leaves
us with two possibilities of
why our bombs are there.
Either Reagan is serving the
interests of corporate America
(which in itself may be good or
bad) or he is truly concerned
with protecting people from
the oppressive policies of other
systems.
If Richard had given information that substantiated
Reagan's policies as being
''capitalistically-expansionary
and downright cold blooded,''
I would have considered protesting with him. However,
evidence that U.S. weapons
are being used to terrorize the
countryside does not make a
clear case (in itself) against the
policies of our government.
It may indicate gross inefficiency (which is quite common
to large buraucracies) or the
need for more direct intervention (which is common to the

problem of bullies). In my feeble opinion, I see no basis to
justify restricting any ablebodied student from supporting our system as a soldier.
This, of course, is facilitated
by armed forces recruiters.

aviation
programs
at LCC
TWO

To the Editor:

I was credited in an article in
the last issue of the Torch with
being a Flight Technology student. I'm not. I'm an Aviation
Maintenance student. I would
like to take this opportunity to
point out an important, but
apparently little known fact.
Although, when airplanes
are mentioned on the LCC
campus, people often seem to
think of Flight Tech, there are
actually two completely
separate aviation related programs here. One is Flight
Technnology, the other is
Aviation
Maintenance

Student
Advising
News

Technology, where I am a student. We maintain some of the
airplanes that are flown over
at Flight Tech, and some folks
believe that these two programs should be more closely
associated. But at this time
there is no other relationship
between the two.

Because the context in
which I was mentioned has to
do with women in nontraditional areas of study, I
would like to point out
another interesting fact. Flight
Technology, (which is a professional pilot training program) has a current enrollment
of 12 percent women students.
Aviation Maintenance (part of
the Mechanics Department,
and a proffessional aircraft
mechanics training program)
has a current enrollment of
less than 2 percent women. I
often wonder why there are so
few women in these two fine
programs. I'm quite sure that
many people don't realize that
the program that I am in even
exists.
I would like to invite all of
LCC, and especially women,
to take a detour from the normally beaten path and stop in
to the building behind Math
and Arts with the big propeller
by the door. I would like more
LCC people to have a look at
aviation from the mechanic's
perspective. My hope is that
more women will find it as exciting as I do.

New piano comes just in time

ICWE offers opportunities to work
and learn in other countries
by Shelli Toftemark

for the TORCH

Can you imagine yourself
earning college credit and
gaining work experience while
helping people in other countries?
If so, LCC's International
Cooperative Work Experience
Program (ICWE) can provide
many opportunities to do just
that, says Peggy Marston, program coordinator.
Two years ago, through the
ICWE program, LCC student
Tim Swillenger, who was studying French, was able to
spend four months working at
a hotel and vinyard in France
-- and two months traveling
throughout Europe on his
own. He said it took commitment and a lot of hard work to
do well in the program, but he
says it was a worthwhile effort.

Marston says working
abroad provides people with
opportunities to learn about
other cultures and languages,
while applying classroom
theory through actual work.
Marston says employment
opportunities abroad exist in
almost every field of work -from mechanics in Europe to
childcare in the Caribbean.
Students in the ICWE program usually spend at least
one preparatory term learning
about the country in which
they will work by attending
seminars, slide presentations,
and by talking with former
ICWE students and travel advisors.
Marston asks that students
interested in the program contact her at extension 2524, or
visit her office, Center 421.

Board of Ed. votes April 4
deadline for county tax suit
by Jackie Barry

TORCH Editor

Representatives from Lane
County and the City of
Eugene attended the March 13
Board of Education meeting,
along with vice-presidents,
staff members and other campus representatives normally
in attendance.
Jim Johnson, general administrator for Lane County,
spoke on the unsegregated
taxes issue, sayjng, "The
county is trying to cooperate
and the board is expecting
some cooperation.''
The unsegregated taxes are
interest payments on property
taxes that 18 Lane County
school districts are trying to
collect from Lane County.
The Board voted 6-1 to approve a compromise settlement of $736,167 for the 18
districts as well as a resolution
to file suit in the Oregon Tax
Court if this offer isn't accepted by April 4, 1985.
Johnson's reference to the
board expecting some
cooperation referred to improvements to the 30th Ave.
and McVay Highway interchange which will involve joint
planning between LCC and
the county.
ASLCC President Cindy
Weeldreyer urged the county
''not to bargain with our safe-

I t'o
ty.''

Other items discussed during this board meeting were
the proposed opening of
Willamette Street between
Tenth and Eleventh Aves., a
Plant Fund allocation to
remodel the Cottage Grove
Center and the selection of
Coopers and Lybrand to conduct audits for another three
year period.
The Board also voted to appoint John Wynquist as permanent head of the Electronics Department.

o f Adult Education
Self:improvernent main goal _
preparation, and economic
betterment.

by Monte Muirhead

TORCH Staff Writer

What do raising sheep, paying bills, analyzing handwriting, and free-lance writing
have in common?
They are just a few of the
400 LCC non-credit courses
offered at the LCC main campus, the Downtown Center,
and other sites throughout
Lane County.
Larry Murray, dean of Instruction for Adult Education,
says non-credit classes are offerect with the ''purpose of
upgrading individuals in their
employment or work life,''
making the Adult Education
curriculum a ''responsible curriculum." The principle objectives of the non-credit classes
are self improvement, career

The courses offered by the
Adult Education Department
are determined by the community. A class comes into existance if students present a
need for a course. This process
involves several steps:
• A person calls LCC to
determine if the college offers
a class covering what they
would like to study. If the
class isn't currently offered by
Adult Education, department
personnel put the caller's
name into an "interest file."
• When 15 or more people
(the minimum number required to fill a class) show interest . in a class, the college
finds and hires a qualified instructor to teach the course.

• Then an LCC coordinator
notifies the interested people,
and the class is scheduled.
The classes range from 30 to
250 hours in length, and 80
percent of them are repeated
term after term.
Budget Class

Although some people
might consider paying their
bills an everyday task and not
give it a second thought, there
are others who have difficulty
in wisely managing their
money.
For this reason, the Adult
Education Department offers
a class in "Budgeting and Bill
Paying.''
Debbie Nelson teaches such
a course at the LCC
Downtown Center. According

Raising Sheep

The budgeting class is just
one of the adult living classes
taught through the Adult
Skills Development Program
(ASDP), which Nelson says is
a "model" program, one of
the first being instituted in the
country. The only other currently operating is in Denver.
ASDP instructors teach the
basics to their students.
Among other subjects, they
emphasize how to prioritize
bills: rent is paid first, they instruct that utilitties should be
paid next, and then "special"
bills. (dentist, transportation,
hospital).

A course in '' Raising
Sheep'' is also on the curriculum at LCC this term.
taught by Linda Boettcher,
the class is an opportunity for
students to have practiced experience with the care of
sheep.
Boettcher discusses different problems and obstacles
in raising sheep, such as vaccinations that should
periodically be given to sheep,
and the basic steps on caring
for lambs.
"I don't want to scare you
all out of raising sheep,'' Boettcher tells her class, but she informs them of many possible
diseases to look for in sheep
and how to treat them, but
more importantly, how to prevent them.

sionally, and teaches the dozen
students enrolled in this term's
class.
Some students who take the
course say their reasons for
enrollment were to learn more
about themselves and others
through handwriting.
Just as no two people have
the same fingerprints, no two
people's handwiritng is the
same. Therefore, much can be
determined about a person by
examining their handwriting.
However, Hamilton stresses
the fact that graphoanalysis is
only a 50 percent scientific
measurement -- the other 50
percent is applied psychology
determined by examining the
person's emotional behavior.
says
Hamilton
graphoanalysis can often
determine minor things about
an individual quickly, without
doing a formal, 8 1/2 hour

analysis. For instance,
Hamilton states ''The larger
the handwriting, the more that
person strives for stature and
prestige.'' Small handwriting,
she says, indicates ''that a person is more withdrawn, and
usually doesn't care about
other people's opinions."
If an individual uses printing instead of handwriting,
Hamilton says it may indicate
the person's handwriting was
ridiculed earlier in life, or that
the person desires an emotional distance from others.
The amount of space between words may indicate how
comfortable the writer is with
people: Small spaces between
words indicate a need to be
around other people frequently; long spaces may indicate
the person needs "space" between them and others much of
the time.

Craphoanalysis becoming more
accepted as psychoanalytical tool
by Monte Muirhead

Torch Staff Writer

Graphoanalysis (the study
of handwriting), an art which
originated more than 500 years
ago in Europe, is finally catching on in the United States.
Val Hamilton, a certified
graphoanalyist who teaches
"Handwriting Analysis" at
the LCC Downtown Center,
says "We're trying to convince
people that we're not part of
the occult," a problem which
•slows acceptance of handwriting analysis in the US.

to Nelson, some people would
spend 90 percent of their
paychecks within hours of
receiving it if they didn't have
the sufficient guidelines for
spending money.

Hamilton obtained her
graphoanalysis certificate
from The International
Graphoanalysis Society
School in Chicago, the only
one which grants such certificates in the US. Now it's
paying off for her, as she
analyzes handwriting profes-

And most students also liked the fact that no tests are

pressure from grades. Perhaps
the greatest appeal for this
class is the fact that Smith has

Despite the declining enrollment at LCC, one class has
had a noticeable increase in
students.
The class, Freelance
Writing, is taught by Gaines
Smith in the Adult Education
Program. "I started out in
Junction City in 1947 with 10
people," Smith recalled.
"This term I had about 165
people that showed up, and
signed up about 130."
He feels that the reason for
the ·popularity in his class, and
the Adult Education program
in general, is that some of the
more
are
classes
"reality-oriented."
Smith says, "I'm telling
people how to make money,
that is one of the main aspects
of the appeal."

And Smith adds teaching
people how to make money is
one of Adult Education's virtues, and is something he
believes they can do more of.

Power, experience llllll~lllâ– lâ– llllllllllâ– llllllf~\11111
propel favored LCC Spring intramurals add diversity
by Darren Foss
ORCH Sports Writer

"This is the best team I've
ad here in six years. The first
year I took over the job we
had a real good team, but as
1c:ir as overall depth and attitude, I think this team is one
of the better,'' said Lane Head
Baseball Coach Bob Foster.
The Titans bring an experienced line-up into this
season with their entire outfield crew returning from last
season.
''Wayne Valencia is playing
left field and a little bit of
center field, he's hitting the
ball pretty good right now,''
said
Foster.
"Scott
Michaelson's hitting close to
.400 and Jack Glueck's hitting
.400. These two have been
starting in the outfield and hitting the ball well.''
Foster also named Chris
Clemmens -- a transfer from
Chemeketa CC -- who is a
speedy center fielder. "We use
him primarily for defensive
purposes and he covers a lot of
ground out there,'' added
Foster.
Other key returners are Don
Vidas, who was selected allconference last year as a pitcher and first baseman. Dave
Matthews, the Titans' catcher,
is back and is also available as
a pitcher.
The team has picked up new
stars in Ted Davis, an in-

IIIJI ·

fielder, who was selected as an
All-State player in 1983 from
Springfield High School, and
Danny Leneski, a third
baseman who prepped at
Sheldon High School.
• Pitching staff includes:
sophomore Gary Fonnesbeck
and returnee Todd Thomas.
Fonnesbeck, another Springfield product, was drafted
by the Cincinnati Reds Major
League Baseball franchise in
the 10th round, but decided to
finish his career at Lane and
gain more experience before
joining the big leagues.
Thomas, who returns after
having arm problems last year,
''is looking good and getting
stronger all the time,'' according to Foster.
Lane was also fortunate to
pick up shortstop Ken Fox
who has played two years at
Arizona State University
before red-shirting last year.
''He's actually a center fielder,
but we converted him to a
shortstop to make him more
attractive to the scouts and
other four-year colleges. He
was drafted in the fifth round
by Montreal (in the major
leagues) last winter,'' said
Foster.

Ex-Duck Richmond lands in USFL

Former University of
Oregon cornerback Rock
Richmond, who now plays for

Robinson's pass in the third

yards for a touchdown.

Richmond stated that, ''the
coaching styles of the pro and
college coaches are very
similar. The staffs work hard
at motivating the players."
Duck Assistant Bill Terrell
has been on Head Coach Rich
Brooks' staff since 1979 and is
pleased to hear of Richmond's
success. "I'm happy that he's
gone on with them (San Antonio), but I'm surprised that
he's not doing punt returns
(Richmond's specialty at U of
O)."
Terrell has tried to follow
Richmond's path closely, but
lost track of him after the
49ers' cut. "He was always enthusiastic and got himself fired
up," Terrell added.

Foster claims, "we're pretty
strong on both sides. Offensively there aren't too many
people who can hit with us in
the league. Defensively you'll
always make a few mistakes,
but if our pitchers get the job
done, it makes it easier on the
defense. That's what happened to us last year, our pitchers
walked too many people.''
Last year's team compiled a
record of 18-15 with many inexperienced
freshmen.
However, this year the team
returns nearly fully intact -one year wiser.
''They're a lot of fun to be
with, have a good attitude and
are always out on the field
working hard. It makes it nice
for the coaches," said Foster.
