Air tests reveal safe
chemical levels at LCC
TORCH Associate Editor

Air tests conducted by the
Oregon Worker's Compensation Department's Accident
Prevention Division at LCC
on November 28, 1984 revealed good news for college
employees.
Levels of chemicals "are
well below the permissable exposure limit for the specific
substances," used in the Printing and Graphics Department
in the Center Building basement.
Tests taken at the same time
in the Apprenticeship Building
also revealed acceptable levels
of chemical fumes -- released
during welding classes -- in
surrounding offices and
classrooms.
Last October, a committee
composed of LCC employees
who work in the Center
Building basement, made a
series of recommendations to
the Facilities Management
Committee (FMC) regarding
health, safety, and comfort in
their workspace.
Since then, the FMC arranged for air tests, fixed plumbing, coordinated improved
custodial services, installed
directories, removed a student
phone, and explored plans for
improving ventilation in Prin-

"We're going to go ahead and

employees wear protective
gloves and glasses when using
solvents to clean the presses.
Colvin observes that complaints about diesel fumes
from trucks idling at the
loading dock have ceased since
the college requested that
drivers shut off their motors
while loading and unloading.
Plans calling for changes in
the intake vent for the Center
Building are still under consideration.
Another issue addressed by
basement employees was the
reallocation of space in a little
used student study area and a
basement classroom to departments pressed for work room.
Colvin says until a formal request -- which can be justified
-- is made, the areas will remain a study area and a
classroom.
The deadline for students to
submit applications for next
year's student government
positions is at noon next
Wednesday, April 24. Election
Days are Monday and Tuesday, May 6 and 7.
Potential candidates can

The process of diagnosis
and treatment is fraught with
foolery and gentle satire, too,
as Moliere exposes the vanity
and gullibility of the
characters. According to
Operations Manager Dick
Reid, a few changes in the
dialogue ("cleaned up and
tamed down") have turned the
production into something
which "should not offend the
youngsters and not embarrass
their parents. It's full of the
slap-stick and fun that kids
really enjoy today."
Director Stan Elberson

thinks there will be particular
audience appeal in the use of
masks and a full-size "pageant
wagon" drawn on stage by a
real horse. The wagon is the
stage from which the players
work, a practice reminiscent
of Moliere's and other earlier
theatrical traditions, such as
the Italian commedia dell'arte,
that so influenced his work.
This production will also include live music of the period,
as well as dance.
Sganarelle will be played by
David S. Bull, last seen at
LCC as Dr. Lyman in "Bus
Stop." Martine, the doctoring
woodcutter's wife, will be
played by Sandra Williams;
she was recently in both ''The
Sound of Music" and "Bus
Stop."
Other principals are Jon
Wilson as Lucas, Patrick
Michalek as Geronte, Dominique Sepser as Jacqueline, .
Wendy Spahr as Lucinde (the

County throws a curve on access issue
•

by Jackie Barry

TORCH Editor

LCC motorists put their
lives on the line every morning
at the corner of Mc Vay
Highway and 30th Avenue.
Lane County and the state
highway department have
acknowledged this problem.
Indeed, they've been grappling
with it for years.
Lane County now wants to
play a game with the problem
-- hardball.
I've never wanted to play
political hardball. And I don't
envy those who do.
It must be difficult to
separate the issues from each
other . and the personalities
from the issues, etc.
But issues ~ust be separated

when they don't belong
together. Such is the case with
the ''unsegregated tax funds''
and the 30th Avenue/ McVay
Highway access problems.
• •Southbound motorists that
use the east entrance to LCC

are familiar with the heartbreak it causes.
Between 7 and 9 a.m., right
turns are only permitted in a
lane with a cement divider that
blocks access to the east entrance. U-turns are only permitted after a quarter-mile
jaunt down 30th Avenue. This
makes for lots of traffic tickets
~ and repeated accidents.
A patrolman, ticketing a
motorist for an illegal U-turn
at the McVay intersection last
week, told the motorist that 15
tickets a day are issued for
traffic violations -- the problem is that bad.
The county recently
•
agreed to pay somewhere in
the neighborhood of $70,000
to LCC (and over $736,000

total to other county school
districts) after an Oregon Tax
Court ruled that Oregon counties should have paid interest
on property taxes five days
after receiving them from taxpayers. This sum was
negotiated from the school
districts' original claim of $2.1
million.
But Lane County doesn't
have the money to pay this
debt and, among othe.l things,
it wants to arrange instead a
trade with LCC.
In a letter to LCC Pres.
Eldon Schafer, County Administrator Jim Johnson
stated, ''a school district could
suggest that for every $1 spent
by the county for safety improvements at intersections

within the district, the county
would be given a credit of
$1.25 on its debt to that
district."
This is a lousy idea.
The only connections between these issues are that LCC
is involved in both, and that
Lane County is involved in
both.
Johnson's proposed tradeoff would shift responsibility
for road access problems from
the county and the state
highway department to a third
body -- LCC.
And besides, LCC would
get a raw deal! Lane County
would pay 20 percent less on a
debt which is already more
than 50 percent smaller than
the original sum.
Peter
Commissioner
DeFazio says that the county's
money problems are worse
than LCC's. LCC is just

Don't call
war 'great'
To the Editor,

I feel morally obligated to
respond to Brad Thompson's
letter in this issue. I don't particularly want to get involved
in this argument, but a
response has to be made and I
doubt anyone else will.
I'll grudgingly accept what
Thompson says in the first
three paragraphs. I don't like
the military being here but I'll
grant that they should be
allowed.
But when Thompson asserts
about
learning
that
"patriotism, loyalty, and
espirit de corps" outweighs all
the murder, rape, and destruction done by the military in the
name of our Great Country, I
must disagree.
I am a patriot too! I love
this country. I can think of only a few places I. would be as
happy in. But I don't need to
go to another country and kill
women and children to learn
that! Loyalty? We're all loyal
to some things - but do we kill
people for them? Espirt de
corps? I guess murderers do
need to stick together. Do you
think I'm leaning a bit too
hard on death and murder?
Isn't that, after all, what a
military is for? To make war?
And what is war but killing
people and destroying their
land? No euphemisms here,
please. The things vets tell me
they've seen and done, quite
frankly, sicken me. And they
weren't talking about what
they did to the able bodied
men, either.
If Brad Thompson finds
learning how to kill as quickly
and efficiently as possible an
"exciting skill" he is sick.
What is romantic about
''traveling to a distant land''
land that is laid totally barren
by war? What is so "great"

about robbing a person of his
or her life?
Yes, Brad, wars have been
fought in the name of religion,
particularly in recent history
by people calling themselves
Christians. I don't want to get
into a big religious discussion,
partly because organized
Christianity isn't worth it, but
if you get down to the soul of
what the human being Jesus of
Nazareth's message was, it's
pretty clear. "Love one
another. Treat others as your
would have_ them treat you.
You will not kill." Jesus was a
Pacifist. But don't blame one
human being for what a bunch
of murderers have done in his
name.
War is for one thing: to kill.
The military was created for
one thing: to make war. Don't
murder, rob, rape, and
destroy in my name. And
don't call it great.

Mass Comm major

Theft robs
many
To the Editor,

Sometime during the first
days of spring break, someone
obtained a key to the Mass
Communication Dept. production booths and stole a
$250 Realistic brand cassette
dubbing deck. The college insurance policy is $ 1000 deductable so the deck will not be
paid for by insurance. The
school does not have the funding to replace the deck so it's
gone for good.
What does all of this mean?
It means that the departments
attempt to provide us with better quality equipment has been
foiled. It means that between
250 and 300 students per year
will not have access to this

equipment. It means that
because one or a few people
have no conscience, the college, whose budget is already
stretched to the breaking
point, will have to change all
the locks on the production
booths, as well as possibly installing padlocks as a back up.
This is not the first time the
department has had equipment stolen, last term one of
the microphones was stolen.
Technique suggests the same
person could be responsible
for both thefts.
Speech and Mass Comm.
Chief Engineer Bob Tanner
said, some $1500 worth of
equipment has been stolen in
the past three years. This does
not include vandalism.
Recently three of the departments microphones were vandalized, it cost the dept.

LCC School Board election results startling~

Curry narrowly wins 'non-election' -- why?

by Sharen Hulegaard

TORCH Staff Writer

Three weeks ago, on Election Day, incumbent LCC
Board Member, Charlene
Curry was suffering from a
bad case of "new gramma
euphoria.''
"It (the election) was all going past me ... I was busy just
enjoying my family and
holding my new little granddaughter (Curry's second
grandchild, Maureen Louise,
born Monday, March 25). I
was pleased I'd won but the
details of it all floated on by,''
says Curry.
It was later that the full impact of this election's unusual
results hit Curry. The election,
held on Tuesday, March 26 involved the re-election of Curry
to the Board of Education of
LCC, along with a variety of
other local issues.
As election time approached, ASLCC Vice President
Meredith Meyers announced
her candidacy to run for the
board position against Curry.
But, before election time rolled around Meyers did an
about face and announced her
withdrawal from the race.
But, although Meyers'
withdrawal was announced
t hrough various media
sources, her decision to
withdraw was not made in

time to have her name removed from the ballot. Thus, on
Election Day voters were
presented with two names to
choose from for the board
position from Zone 3.

Curry. "I thought 'My God, I
could have been beaten by a
non-candidate, a young girl
who'd withdrawn from the
race."
''The election of a board

Larry Warford assists board member Charlene Curry.

When final election results
were tallied Curry had won the
election with a total of 12,543
votes over Meyers' 10,293. A
startingly narrow margin of
2,250 votes were all that stood
between the re-election of
Curry and the "election" of a
declared non-candidate.

(how this situation occured),
nor do I want to sound like
I'm making excuses. I was as
surprised as anybody,'' said

member is a really serious
thing because you're running a
huge business, you're responsible, you're an officer of the
state - you swear an oath,''
states Curry.
An ongoing concern of all
LCC board members, explains
Curry, is that they run from a
bigger district than anywhere
except for the state_;wide offices because the district encompasses parts of Benton
and Douglas counties as well

Meyers explains her position
by Allan Smolker

TORCH Staff Writer

"I decided to run because I
didn't think that my opponent
had done (LCC) justice in
some areas, and I wanted to
have a position on the school
board," LCC Board of
Education candidate, and

ASLCC V .P. Meredith Meyers

ASLCC Vice President,
Meredith Meyers told The
Torch at a recent interview.
Meyers, who did not campaign, withdrew from the
board race -- but her name remained on the March 26
ballot, and she came within
2,250 votes of unseating incumbent LCC Board member
Charlene Curry.

Meyers refused to state
specific reasons for running
against Curry because she
hopes to work with Curry in
the future. However, Meyers
has plans to run again for a
board position either next year
or the year after. "I really
wanted that position, but the

wierd to be on the school
board (and have to return for
meetings) once a month," said
Meyers. She maintains she had
several agencies in mind as
possible employers, but would
not name them.
But Meyers says people do
not think she is indecisive.
''When I decided not to run, I
got a lot of comments from
people I didn't even know ...
that said I had reconsidered
my priorities, and that they
were pleased that I had done
that . . . rather than get the
(Board of Education) position
and back out." stated Meyers.
When asked what changes
should be made, Meyers says
the LCC Board of Education
needs to "focus more on student's needs rather than administrative needs." She expects to work with Curry and

as Lane. "That is an area bigger than lots of states,'' says
Curry. Many people (from the
outlying areas especially)
don't even know who the
board members are, according
to Curry. And many people
who are familiar with the
board and were aware of
Meyers' withdrawal may not
have even voted because they
considered it a non-race.
Also, the election was held
during spring vacation for
both LCC and the U of O and
many people were away.
"People don't usually get
absentee ballots for that kind
of election," states Curry.

Curry describes another
theory that often surfaces
around elections, and that has
to do with the candidates actual names. "My name is not a
household word," in general
and especially in the outlying
areas, she states. "Studies
show that familiar names,
whether the voter actually
knows the candidate or not,
have an edge at the polls.
There are three names in
Oregon one doesn't want to
have running against them:
one is Roberts, one is Meyers,
one is Clark. They are very
popular political names,''
Curry explains.
As an afterthought Curry
states that ''the name
Meredith Meyers could even
have been mistaken for that of
a man and studies show too
that, all other things being
equal, the voter will still vote
for a man if there are two
names on the ballot.
A final possible reason offered by Curry is that voters
occasionally tend to vote
against an incumbent when a
serial levy is also an issue.
"We had a serial levy on the
ballot -- I really feel it's the
responsibility of the Board to
seek funding for the College.
We don't always want to put
that levy out there but we
don't have many options. It's
our fiscal responsibility to at
least ask," states Curry. The
knowledgable voter wh·o
knows the incumbent has a
part in requesting funding
might vote against them for
just that reason. "That
doesn't make us real
popular,'' she explains.
It seems fair to speculate
that in this particular election
the results can be attributed
mainly to the fact that, as
Curry says, voters just don't
get that wrapped up in school
board elections unless they
pertain to their particular
school district. • And, since
neither candidate had campaigned to speak of, the
average voter looked at the
-ballot, saw two names, didn't
really know who either one
was, and if they voted at all on
that item, they were as likely
to vote for one as the other.
''You get about a 50-50 chance
then," says Curry.
Also, Curry states, ''both

candidates were defeated by
the undervote. The last figure
I saw was that 38 percent of
the voters that had ballots did
not vote on the board position
at all." She feels that that fact
lends credence to the theory
that people simply don't know
either candidate and in many
cases choose just not to vote
for either for that reason.
"But," she restates, "I simply
don't know why the election
results were what they were."
When asked about her
future plans Curry says "I will
not run again -- nine years is
long enough, thirteen years is
too long (board members are
elected for four year terms). It
does take a lot of time and

none -- only a single longstemmed red rose on her
casket."
Governor Vic Atiyeh, a
long-time Baker family friend,
also spoke -- of the beauty of
the day, the surroundings, and
''the beauty of Patricia. I
know Pat is most pleased,'' he
said.
Patricia Baker died on May
15, 1983, shortly after the
Baker family made arrangements with the Arboretum Board and made a
donation to establish the
memorial garden. She died
knowing the garden would exist.
Ted Baker, speaking at the
ceremony, thanked all their
close friends who encouraged
Pat and the family with the

If you had a terminal illness,
knew that your death was imminent, had struggled your
private struggles and reached a
state of tranquil acceptance -if you were in love with
nature,
earth,
and
wildflowers, what might your
last dream be?
Several years ago a woman
named Patricia A. Baker was
in this situation, suffering
from terminal cancer.
On Sunday, April 14, her
daughter, Bridget Baker ,
described how her mother and
father
(Reg iste r-Guard
Publisher Ted Baker) first
come up with the idea of
establishing
a

wildflower garden during their
walks through Mt. Pisgah Arboretum, a garden that would
be dedicated to Patricia's
memory, and could be enjoyed
by everyone.
On this sunny, spring Sunday, in the presence of friends
and family members who'd
gathered at Mt. Pisgah Arboretum, that dream became a
reality with the dedication the
the Patricia A. Baker
Wildflower Garden.
In an introductory speech,
Kenneth Ghent, Chairman of
the Arboretum's Wildflower
Committee , described the
Wildflower Garden as the

LCC athletic trainer travels to Russia for friendship

by Karen Irmsher

TORCH Staff Writer

"l think that what's going
to stop the arms race is to
form strong personal relationships between people,'' says
Janet Anderson. "And," she
continues, "that includes coworkers, adversaries and
enemies."
Anderson, LCC's athletic
trainer for the past 4 years, is
preparing to put her beliefs into action. April 25, she, along
with 26 other women, are leaving on a 3 week trip to the
U.S.S.R.

"I'd like to revive the concept of respectful adversarial

relationships,'' Anderson
says.
Another of her objectives is
to be a "citizen diplomat."
"Not everyone can go," she
says, "and I'd like to share
what I learn· there with people
here."
Her third goal is to have
fun. She's packing some nonverbal games and hopes to
have some "opportunities that
are informal--where we'll just
get to hang out."
The trip is sponsored by a
San Marcos, California-based
group called Earth Stewards.
Anderson heard of the tour
from friends who participated
last year.

LCC tape goes to USSR

by Karen Irmsher

TORCH Staff Writer

As Janet Anderson packs for her trip to the U.S.S.R.,
one thing she's sure to include is a tape of four LCC
students exchanging views on relations between the U.S.A.
and the U .S.S.R.
The tape was made during a noon-hour discussion April
12 in the Administration Board Room. It will be aired on
Radio Moscow, an American sponsored English language
station, like the Voice of America, that beams broadcasts
into the Moscow area.
Joe Kremers, LCC political science instructor, was the
moderator of the panel discussion which included Dean
Roskosz, a former student senator; Cindy Weeldreyer,
ASLCC president; Steve Ramseur, ASLCC communications director; and Monika Garrett, a food services
management major.
Each student started by listing five one-word images that
come to mind when they think of the U .S.S.R., and
elaborating on those images. Some of those mentioned
were: Large, misunderstood, powerful, mysterious, changing, restrictive, expansionistic, and unfulfilled.
Asked to discuss the three most important problems facing the two countries in the next five years, students listed
many of the same major concerns for both countries.
Garrett believes each country has an ego problem, an
unreasonable desire to be number one. "We need to humble ourselves in some way," she suggested.
Other shared problems mentioned were economic, environmental, misuse of the media, and a myopic point of
view.
The panel members were asked to visualize how the
world would look if it could be any way they wanted.
Roskosz envisioned a world more tolerant of diversity,
with an emphasis on culture rather than ideology.
Both Weeldreyer and Ramseur saw the world as a global
community with a unified government carefully balancing
environmental and human needs. Weeldreyer believes both
countries could benefit from studying the cultures of the
native Americans.
Garrett would keep the individuality of separate countries, but have them work together as a team.
Three of the four panel members suggested increased
education about each other's cultures and the interdependence of the planet as keys to increasing peaceful
coexistence. Ramseur cited the experiences of astronauts as
relevant to us all.
"There's something about the view of the globe the
astronauts come back with -- there are no lines on the
planet. It's fragile, and we're all in the same boat,"
•
Ramseur said.
The discussion ended with each student asking a question of their Soviet counterparts. Roskosz is curious as to
the Soviet student conception of freedom. He wants to
know if they feel free and if they think we are free.
Ramseur would like to know how Soviet students
perceive America and American students, and any suggestions to us for steps we could take to achieve peace.
Weeldreyer is curious as to educational opportunities for
Soviet students, and Garrett wants to know what they
think of drafting women into the military.
Janet Anderson, LCC's athletic trainer, will leave this
tape with a woman who hosts a talk show on ·Radio
Moscow. She will air both LCC's tape and the responses
from English speaking Soviet students on Radio Moscow.
When that is finished, they will send the tapes to Anderson who will be eager to share the responses with KLCC,
The Torch, and anyone else who will listen.

Anderson says they t<>ld her
that they were often able to
walk unattended in the cities.
They also said that the Soviets
can spot an American immediately and are eager to
talk.
"Sometimes they even take
you home for dinner," says
• Anderson.
She'll be able to say, "Yes"
in Russian, should anybody
ask, along with a couple hundred other key words. One
she's especially hoping to use
sounds like "marazhina." It's
ice cream. Rumor has it they
may be ahead in the ice cream
race and she's eager to add to
her own perspective.
The 27 women who are going are between the ages of 11
and 72. Three motherdaughter combinations are included. Anderson believes the
diversity of ages will increase
their opportunities for interactions with a broad spectrum of
people.
They'll be stopping in
Moscow, Leningrad, Riga,
Kiev, and Novgorod, all

located in Western U.S.S.R.
Official meetings will include
the Soviet Peace Committee,
the Moscow Women's Committee, and Women Survivors
of the Siege of Leningrad.
Though her own grasp of
the Russian language is
minimal, she doesn't expect
the language barrier to be a
problem. Russian children
begin studying a foreign
language in first grade and
continue with it throughout
their school years. She's heard
it said that there are more
teachers of English in the
Soviet Union than there are
students of Russian in the
United States.
In addition to the tape
recorded by LCC students (see
related story), Anderson is
taking a peace quilt made by
Rita Hennessy's social science
class, a collage labeled "What
I Cherish About the Earth"
assembled last week by
students passing by the
ASLCC Resource Center, letters from a South Eugene
High School student, and a

We Are the World record.
Gifts for children include bubble gum, scratch and sniff
stickers, balloons, and a pair
of blue jeans -- size 1 1/2.
She hopes to return with
things that would give people a
real flavor of what Russian life
is like, as well as plenty of
slides. She'll also be on the
look-out for the traditional
wooden nesting dolls. More
difficult to find will be a book
written by a Russian author in
English about the history of
the U.S.A. And then she may
not be able to get it out of the
U.S.S.R.
Throughout her travels
she'll be carrying a small
photo album packed with pictures of LCC co-workers,
students, athletes, home and
friends. This can be easily
shared with her new Russian
friends.
While the idea of
eliminating enemies by making
them into friends is not
original, Anderson believes it
is still a good one and she expects to have fun trying.

Scholarships awarded to
four LCC Nursing students ·
by Ellen Platt

TORCH Associate Editor

Four LCC Nursing students
received $250 scholarships for
Spring Term tuition through
the LCC Foundation on
March 14.
Harcleroad,
Jeanne
associate department head of
Health Occupations, says the
money was awarded based on
the following criteria: The student must be working toward
an associate degree and a Nursing degree at LCC; a short
written statement explaining
their interest in long-term
care; a good scholastic record;
and demonstrated financial
need.
The LCC Foundation and
the Health Occupations
department selected the recipients of the money, which
was a $1,000 gift from Beverly
Enterprises, a nationwide
organization of nursing
homes.
Two second year Nursing
students -- Merily Brinda and

Laura Schaaf -- and two first
year Nursing students -Theresa McKenzie and
Kathryn Brewer -- received
their scholarships and attended a luncheon in the
Renaissan-ce Room with
representatives of Beverly
Enterprises.
Harcleroad adds Beverly
Enterprises is also interested in
placing students in their
facilities both locally and nationally, which provides an excellent opportunity for LCC
Nursing students.

EcO/ogical stress is central focus of Earth Week

by Lisa Zimmerman

TORCH Staff Writer

"Our planet today 1s m a
severe crisis, due to the combined effects of the nuclear
arms race, ecological stress,
and concentration of wealth."
Thomas Ellis, PhD, will off er a solution to this problem
in his presentation ''The Quiet
Revolution, '' only one of
seventeen talks planned to
celebrate Earth Week (April
22-26) at LCC.
What is Earth Week? According to Mary Ridge, LCC
Earth Week coordinator, it is
intended to emphasize the
valuable, "good stuff" , about
our planet and the importance
of preserving these resources.
Ridge says maintaining the
earth's
resources
is
''something everyone must be
involved in.'' She hopes Earth
Week will create an awareness
of how the simple decisions of
people each day can make a
positive difference in society
and the world.
The University of Oregon is
also celebrating Earth Week,
in cooperation with LCC, but
Ridge says there are differences in the activities the
two schools have planned.
According to Ridge, the
presentations at LCC -- unlike
those at the U of O -- will involve "Mostly local people
with local concerns."
These activities include
presentations dealing with
everything from major nuclear
issues to new techniques in
solar heating. There will also
be films, music, and dance -all emphasizing the value of
the earth, its resources, and its

people.
Ridge has high aspirations
for the effects of Earth Week
on those who take advantage
of the information presented.

"I expect people will begin to
ask questions about the way
they are living.'' The most important of these questions -according to Ridge -- is if we

Play's stage set takes on ·life of its own

- by Ann Van Camp
TORCH Staff Writer

Building a 17th-century
--pageant wagon,'' full-sized
and' accurate to every detail,
safe to work from, and within
the budget limits of a community college theatre sounds
like a tough challenge.
But Bruce Bibby and Skip
Hubbard are tackling that
challenge, and have created
more than just a little excitement in their project. They are
creating the wagon to be used
in the LCC production of
Moliere's play, "The Doctor
In Spite of Himself.''
Bib by, designer/ technical
director, says he and Hubbard
spent several weeks doing
research. ''Moliere was influenced by the Italian commedia dell'arte -- the touring
shows of Europe -- where the
actors did the show out of
their wagons." He says " 'The
Doctor' is so farcial and_
slapstick that it didn't fall into
the category of baroque, as do
some others.
So the decision was made to
do an adaptation of the
pageant wagon -- to have it be
set so that they (the actors)
could act off of it, through it,
and in front of it.''
Bibby says he and Hubbard
looked at photos and artists'
conceptions of what the
wagons looked like in the 17th
century. But they got their
most valuable information
from The Carriage Works, a
carriage-building shop in
Oakland, Oregon.
Bibby says this enabled
them to see how things were
put together, and they
gathered much practical information -- such as how many
spokes are needed per wheel.
''They build toys for the
rich. Their wagons are show
quality. I saw the price tag on
a pair of wheels -- $600,'' says
Bibby. "We'll probably build
the whole wagon for $500."
LCC Scene Shop Foreman
Skip Hubbard is doing most of
the building.
"I've been around wagons
and horses all my life which is
why I'm so excited about it,"
says Hubbard. Using a
IO-page set of blueprints from
Bibby, Hubbard has constructed the full-size wagon to
include every detail.
"It has almost all the
elements of a normal wagon.
The wheels have spindles, the
hounds rotate against the
stem, it's got a fifth wheel,
bolsters, and . . . " Hubbard
lets a country grin reshape the
contour of his beard. ''This
wagon isn't sprung like a stage
coach--but that's about all it's
missing.''
If the terminology sounds a
little unfamiliar, it might be
due to a slow-down in the
wagon industry. Hubbard says
no one makes pageant wagons
anymore, except a theatre

department now and again.
When it's complete, the
wagon will weigh about 600
pounds. It has a 10- by 6-foot
base and rises 10 1/2 feet off
the ground. One side wall will
fold down and out to make 64
square feet of stage area and
the other side wall will serve as
the backdrop. Two poles will
stretch in a line 10 feet on
either side of the wagon and
suspend colored curtains for
the players to enter through.

"It is going to be a big,
gaudy thing with lots of
filigree," says Hubbard.
Hubbard says the wheels

have been the most interesting
part to work on. He got help
from the LCC Machine shop
for the hubs and the spindles.
and the LCC Woodshop
helped by loaning tools and
providing some special dry
lumber•
Hubbard started full production three weeks before
Spring break, and he has enjoyed every minute. He has
also been thinking about the
horse he'll use to pull the
wagon onto the stage.

"I've got an Arabian that
would look so super just
because of his size and all, but

17 artists to
enrich LCC

he's enough just fot me to
handle. Then I've got this ol'
pack horse, 'Spud.' He's a
retired U.S. Fores try service
horse -- probably 25 or 30
years old now, and he's gentle
and easy to work with," -=Spud got the part.
Bibby and Hubbard have
put creativity and durablility
into the wagon. Director Stan
Elberson says the theatre
already has ideas for other
uses after "The Doctor" completes its run.
"It will be something we can

Titans tied for division lead
by Darren Foss

TORCH Baseball Writer

LCC's baseball team is
back to the top of the Northwest Athletic Association
of Community Colleges'
Southern Division standings, riding a three-game
win streak.
Wednesday, April 10,
LCC beat Linn-Benton 6-0,
and swept Clackamas 5-1,
6-3 in a Saturday
•
double-header.
The wins boosted LCC
into a first-place tie with
Umpqua, both are 5-3. The
Titans are 12-6 overall.

LCC's defense was the
key. Pitcher ·Gary Fonnesbeck went the distance
and pitched a six-hit
shutout. Sophomore Scott
Michaelsen knocked in two
runs.
"This was Gary Fonnesbeck's best performance
for Lane Community College as a pitcher,'' said LCC
Head Baseball Coach Bob
Foster. ''He came back

in the first game of a
with
double-header
Clackamas.
LCC came out strong in
the first inning, scoring
three runs by capitalizing
on walks. Ken Fox opened
on a walk, then stole second
base, and scored on a single
by Ted Davis. Davis was
thrown out trying to steal.
Scott Michaelsen ripped a
single through centerfield,

up the win for LCC, pitching a complete game,
holding Clackamas to only
three runs off six hits.
''The best thing about the
weekend was the fact that
we played great defense, we
didn't have any errors in
either game. This was one
of the few times in my
coaching career that we
played a double-header
without committing an er-

Titans ........ 6
Wednesday, April 10, thtTitans were home to replay
a game with the LinnBenton Roadrunners, starting in the second inning.
The game was protested on
March 30 -- the second
game of a double-header -Linn-Benton objected to an
umpire's controversial call
in Lane's favor in the second inning.
The game continued and
went to extra innings, play
was stopped after nine innings due to darkness, with
the score tied 10-10.
Later, Lii;m -Benton's
protest upheld, and the
game was replayed from the
second inning. This erased
most of the runs, and put
the score at 1-0 in Lane's
favor.
LCC picked up where it
left off and added another
run in the bottom of the second. LCC then exploded
for four runs in the fifth inning, blowing out the
Roadrunners, 6-0.

Saturday, April 13, LCC
pitcher Jack Glueck went
the distance, picking up his
first win of the season,
leading the Titans to a win

and Wayne Valencia was
walked. The next batter,
Dan Luneski, hit a double,
scoring Michaelsen and
Valencia.
The Cougars ended LCC
pitcher Jack Glueck's
shutout attempt in the
fourth inning by coming up
with a run to cut LCC's
lead to 3-1.
But LCC responded in
the bottom of the fourth,
scoring the final two runs of
the game. Glueck and the
Titans' defense held the
Cougars for the remainder.
In the second game, LCC
broke out to an early 3-0
lead once again, this time in
the second inning. A bases
loaded double by Ted
Davis, scoring Dave Matthews, Chris Clemens and
Ken Fox, keyed the rally.
The Titans put the game
out of reach in the fourth,
when Fox scored on a over
throw by the Cougars.
Clackamas scored three
times in the top of the fifth
to cut LCC's lead to 4-3,
making a game of it. The
score remained until the
sixth inning, when LCC's
Davis added insurance runs
with a two-run homer to
left field, scoring Fox.
Davis led the Titans' offense, going two-for-three
at the plate, including a
double and home run and
collected five RBI's. Fox
scored three runs.
Gary Fonnesbeck picked

ror, '' said LCC Head
Coach Bob Foster.
The Titans have won
three-in-a-row now, and expect more. "We're on a roll
now and starting to pick up
again. We need to keep up
our momentum and intensity for the rest of the season.
In this league once you let
down somebody's gonna
beat you," said Foster.
Despite the wins, the
team is plagued with injuries. Seven players are
currently out with some
kind of ailment. The top
losses are at pitching with
Todd Thomas out with an ·
arm problem and Dan
Vidos coming off a sprained ankle. Outfielder Scott
Michaelsen has a knee problem and catcher Aaron
Helfrich a leg problem.
The Titans next play a
much needed non-league
double-header against
Portland State University's
junior varsity squad at
Portland Civic Stadium,
Monday, April 22.
"It'll be a tough game.
They bring a lot of kids
down from varsity, plus
we're playing on the
astroturf ... I don't think
any of these guys have
played on astroturf
before," said Foster. "It'll
be a different experience.
We'll practice with rubber
baseballs on the asphalt surface so they know what it
feels like," added Foster.

Greg Morris slams the ball over two Oregon defenders at a recent home; front line play was the key to the Eggmen's success
at the West Regionals last Saturday.
by Ron Gullberg

TORCH Sports Editor

LCC's Eggmen men's club
team, after two bitter, disappointing early season losses,
put its game together last
week and beat the University
of Oregon .club team at home,
then won the Western
Regional United States
Association
Volleyball
"B-level" Tournament at
Pacific University Saturday.
" We were able to meet our
goal,'' said Eggmen Coach
Mitch Allara. "At the start of
the season we decided we
wanted to play some good
volleyball and put our best
game together at the
regionals."
According to Allara, the Eggmen's defense made their

prophecy come true. "I don't
think we could have won if we
didn't get together our defensive game . . . everybody was
diving, passing, and lining up
the ball great."
The Eggmen opened the
tourney beating their old
nemesis University of Oregon,
then topped a squad from
Seaside, and in the finals,
stopped Acme from Portland
two-games-to-three.
Along with the win came a
glass-clear volleyball shaped
trophy mounted on wood, and
the game ball, autographed by
each of the Eggmen (the hardware is on display in the intramurals office).
Michael DiMarco, who
Allara accredited for his

outstanding defensive play,
wasn't surprised his team won.
"We've been working hard all
season to prepare for this.
Most of us spent up to four
hours of practice, four days a
week."
Allara also noted Blake
Adkins, "for his strong play
from the middle,'' and Greg
Morris who, ''blocked quite
well."
The regional win is the end

of the regular season for the
Eggmen, and it means they
will be promoted to the'' A''
level next season.

Memorial Track Relays

''One of the officials at the
regional tournament told us
that we should have no problem competing at ''A'' level
next season," said DiMarco.
"We've got a young team this
season and most everyone will
be back, so we'll be experienc-

ed."
The Eggmen plan to stage
more non-counting matches
with UofO this spring term,
and have announced they will
re-name the team ''The Birdmen" for next season.
"We knew we were in the
building stage this year, but we
decided we progressed to a
better level of ball for next
year,'' said Allara.

Letters_(cont. from page 2)

Pro-military

To the Editor,
I feel the editors of The
Torch often include remarks
from the anti-military forces
on campus, but rarely, very
rarely, give the opposition a
chance at rebuttle. Americas's
soil and the freedom of our
people has been challenged
repeatedly and almost constantly since we became a nation over 200 years ago. If it
weren't for the military we
would be governed by some
foreign power at this very
minute and wouldn't receive
even a fraction of the freedom

we are enjoying at th1s very
minute. These anti-military
sediments on campus have
never been confronted by
hostile, bloodthirsty foreign
soldiers. I doubt they were
even alive when the Japanese
attacked and murdered over
1000 Americans in less than 10
minutes to begin World War
II. I doubt if they have ever
really thought about what
happened to over 4 million
Jews during that same war.
Well, I've thought about it
and I'm glad our military is
strong enough to resist the evil
and hostility that covers this
earth. I'm sure everyone
reading this is just as glad as I
am that we are free and that
we have retained that freedom

energy. I've got a lot invested
in LCC, a lot of personal time
(all volunteer as board
members are not paid)."
"I have a great attachment
for the people who work there,
and for the people who study
and learn there . . . my reward
is that I feel I've made a contribution to a wonderful place,
where the faculty love to teach
-- where the students love to
go."
Curry explains that she was
thinking of retiring from her
position on the board -- not
running again this time, "but
then Eldon announced his
retirement and that took care
.of that,'' she states. ''This is
not a time for someone who
has significant board experience to be going off the
board. There are only three of
us that have been there for any
length of time. It's a time for
stability, for smooth transition, for careful selection of
the next president, and for
help orienting that person.
You don't hire a person, get
that person seated July 1, and
say 'goodbye', -- it's just unthinkable.''
Curry has been in the field
of education for about 35
years and has taught on all
levels. In addition to her posi-

tion on the LCC Board she is
Head of Governmental Relations for the U of 0.
When asked about her personal feelings, about her
career, about her philosophy,
she thinks for a moment and
then smiles. "I just feel really
lucky. I'm in positions I never
thought I'd be in. I'm an older
woman . . . women my age
didn't do a lot of things (like
this) -- there were very few
board members who were
women, still are very few -- the
majority are men. I -really feel
lucky to have the opportunity
(at Lane), and this one here (at
U of 0), that go hand in hand
-- allow me to use my
background, educational

goals, and values to do
something I really enjoy doing.''
But, retirement is in the picture for Curry. "I hope to
retire sometime within the
decade and just enjoy my
family, my grandchildren, and
do some traveling." The mention of family and grandchildren brings a sparkle to
Curry's eyes. "It's wonderful
to have a little granddaughter
now -- I've enjoyed my grandson Loren so much."
''Family comes first -- I
think that's why I like education. Education is just an extension of your nurturing and
caring about your family and
kids," Curry says smiling.

SP-ring_goal set for $_401-000

Music specials to liven KLCC Radiothon

KLCC begins its Spring
Radiothon Friday, April 19, at
7:30 p.m., during "Straight
Street.'' The goal of this
radiothon is $40,000 -- KLCC
will continue its appeal for
funds until the goal is reached.
KLCC needs $35,000 to
balance its 1984-85 budget,
and an additional $5,000 for
increased National Public
Radio (NPR) dues. NPR dues
have increased dramatically
because member stations are·
paying off NPR's debt. Over
100 local businesses have
donated premiums to be used
as incentives for listener contributions during the
Radiothon.
KLCC Promotions Director
Denny Guehler says they're
also soliciting contributions
before the Radiothon as part
of a Thonbuster campaign.
For every $3,000 contributed,
the length of the Radiothon
will be shortened one day.
This idea worked so well
during
KLCC' s
Fall
Radiothon that fundraising
was completed in less than a
week. Guehler says,' 'The
response hasn't been anywhere
near that great this time." Only $3,000 has been pledged as
of April 16. "But it gets people thinking 'How much can I

afford,' " says Guehler. "And
the end result is people are
calling in faster and paying
faster.''

KLCC will present several
programming specials during
the Radiothon. Host John
Cooney will present a special
"Straight Street" to kick-off
the Radiothon on Friday,
April 19, at 7:30 p.m.;
"Blackberry Jam" will host
Lisa Lefevre, local country
and folk performer, as well as
bluegrass music with Rosco,
Jim, _and Steve, live from
Balladeer Music in the Fifth
Street Public Market at 6 p.m.
on Saturday, April 20; John
Glassburner will host the Fifth
Annual Big Band Bash AllTime All Stars on Sunday,
April 21 at noon (listeners are
voting on their favorites for

this popular Big Band show);
and Carl Woideck will
celebrate the ninth Anniversary of "Focus on Jazz" with
a special jazz show Wednesday, April 24 at 7:30 p.m.

During the week of April
22-27 (at the same time as the
KLCC Radiothon) NPR will
conduct a nationwide fundrasier in conjunction with
local radio stations to assist
them in raising funds for
NPR costs. NPR will be making funding appeals during its
flagship news programs ''All
Things Considered'' and
"Morning Edition."
On-air hosts for NPR will
be television personality Dick
Cavett and singer Pearl Bailey
with assistance from Phil
Donohue, Ed McMahon and
Steve Allen. There will also be

dozens of celebrities assisting
with the pitch.

Schafer special
KLCC will dedicate the entire day's programming on
Wednesday, April 24 to LCC's
retiring President, Dr. Eldon
Schafer. The station, which is
licensed to LCC, extends
honors to Schafer for his
strong support of KLCC over
the years.
Schafer backed the station's
efforts to acquire significant
grants including a National
Telecommunications and lnforma tion Administration
grant for $122,000 in 1982, as
well as supporting numerous
other projects.
This programming will coincide with staff honors that will
occur the same day.
