Students fast to relieve
inter natio nal hunger

by Denise Abrams
for the TORCH

Some LCC students will be
hungry all day Thursday,
November 21 and it won't be
because they can't afford to
eat. They'll be taking part, in
Oxfam's 12th Annual "Fast
for a World Harvest."
This year the Associated
Students of Lane Community
College (ASLCC) will be one
of seven local sponsors for this
international fundraiser. All
proceeds from the 1985 Fast
will go to benefit Oxfam' s
development and emergency
relief
projects in Latin
America and Africa.
The ASLCC encourages
students and community
members to fast from sundown Wednesday, Nov. 20, to
sundown Thursday, Nov. 21,
and donate the money they
would normally spend on food
to Oxfam America. ASLCC
Treasurer Rob Ward says,

"Last year LCC raised $250;
this year we plan to double
that figure.''

Information about both the
Fast and Oxfam will be
available at a table in the LCC
cafeteria Thursday, Nov. 21.

Teaching in jail provides edu~ators unique opportunities

TORCH Staff Writer

Inmates in the Lane County
Jail can earn a General Education Degree (GED), take Adult
Basic Education (ABE)
classes, and even brush up on
resume writing and job hunting skills while doing their
time, thanks to LCC classes in
the jail.
LCC is one of only three
community colleges in Oregon

range in subject matter from
"Introductio n to Reading" to
"Econom ics"
and
"Chemistry ." The jail itself
provides desks and other
equipment.
"I don't think a lot of people know about the program,''
says Ida Wright, who began
instructing inmates fall term.
Wright teaches ABE and GED
courses at the jail from 12:30
p.m. to 3:30 p.m. daily, and
has found the experience

be allowed back. "To them,
school is a privilege,'' adds
Wright.
Working inside jailhouse
walls offers educators unique
opportunities for observation.
''They all wear the same types
of clothes -- light green tops
and pants," Wright says of
her students. ''In that respect,
it's almost like teaching in a
private school, with all my
students in uniform,'' she
jokes.

program, she says. "I'd like to
see more people coming in -guest speakers -- and more
cultural things. Basically, I'd
like to see less restrictions
placed on classroom activities," says Wright.
Sharon McGlinchey, the
currrent Lane County Jail program specialist for Education
and Library Services, says she
spends about half her time on
the inmate education program." I kind of oversee the
whole thing,'' she says.
Her job includes routing requests from inmates to proper
departments within the jail
system, drafting bench parole
letters, keeping attendence
records for the county, and
okaying funds for inmates

who want to take the GED test
but lack the money. '' I find it
very rewarding when students
get their GEDs," says McGlinchey.
Jack Gard, who previously
held McGlinchey's positions,
revived the job search program for inmates with the help
of LCC. Inmates can now at, tend job hunting classes while
awaiting release.
Mike Simon, Adult Basic
Education teacher for LCC,
has been teaching at the jail
for almost four years. Simon
conducts career search classes
from 8 to 11 every morning.
His class content includes
practice interviews, resume
writing, career counseling,

Turner expects
to . retain League
members hip
by Tara Cross
for the TORCH

A visitation team, comprised of representatives from the
League for Innovation in the
Community College, visited
LCC's campus Nov. 1, according to Larry Warford, assistant to the president.
The purpose of the visit was
to review LCC's continuing
membership in the League, a
national organization that
works to develop and improve
instruction and operation of
community colleges across the
nation. It consists of 19 college
districts and 53 colleges.
LCC was invited to join the
league in 1973, because of its
many innovative and progressive projects, says Warford.
Being a member of the
organization makes available
vast resources shared by other
community college members -resources not otherwise
available to LCC -- such as instructional or administrative
ideas. It also makes LCC a
priority community college for
funded projects. For example,
LCC participated in a solar
energy workshop which was
sponsored by the Department
of Energy.
Membership requires dues
of $4,000 per year and attendance at two board meetings
where innovative ideas from

each community college in the
League are shared.
During the visit 12 staff
members gave presentations
concerning recent innovations.
Julie Aspinwall-Lamberts
presented The Idea Exchange;
Jolene Bowers, paperless Student Records Office; Paul
Colvin, energy management
system; Sandy Cutler, Small

teachers in correcting subjective writing; Bill Mullin, student interactive, computermanaged instruction system;
and Tom Reimer, computermanaged instruction in Math

Warford called them ''the
stars of the show."
League members will
prepare a report for the
League board of directors conLane's
cerning renewing
membership in the national
organization. The decision will
be made in January. According to LCC President Turner,
"We expect to continue to be
an outstanding member of the

Dear Editor,
I hope that you will publish
this letter because the time has
come for an expose of our
elected city officials.
- Months have passed since
the elections and all the eloquent speeches and promises
have faded into the mists of
time. Ugly resentment by the
people of Eugene rears its
head and if Mr. Obie and a
few select council members
don't take notice, political
careers will end.
During Mr. Obie;s rematks
in the debate he said a substantial amount of city-wide constituents had shown support
for the city Income Tax Proposal. The response they
received after mailing out
questionnaires was the
''basis,'' as Mr. Obie stated in
the debate. It's a funny thing,
but many neighbors, friends,
and myself included received
none '0f- ·those (iuestionnaires
that Mr. Obie spoke of.
Could it be that Mr. Obie
rubbed shoulders with the
more affluent people of our
fair city? Mr. Obie must know
that they represent only a
small segment of our community.
If our city officials would
realize that the sun doesn't rise

ALL
and set on the few, and would
start paying more attention to
serving the majority, we could
have a more cooperative relationship in city project financing. The 4-1 ratio in our recent
election ought to be enough
for an inteUigent evaluation.
Mr. Obie's honorable concern about attracting new
business to our community is a
just cause, but not at the expense of the majority of
Eugene taxpayers who "have
to pay the piper.'' The average
taxpayer doesn't want an
oligarchy (government by the
few) whose only concern
seems to be making the center
of the city beautiful while
neglecting declining property
values in other areas of the city.
Projects slated years ago for
upgrading, such as streets,
sidewalks, and curbs, take the
back burner to pet projects the
mayor and city council conDowntown
up.
jure
beautification is one thing, but
enough is enough. High tech
didn't build this community,
but natural resources, education, and the hardworking
common people did.
Maybe a course in community ·history would
enlighten these elected professionals. It's time our community leaders took a holistic
view of Eugene's needs and
wants.
Why is it, our elected officials have such a hard time
with finance and budget? Our
city is fortunate enough to
have one of the largest pools
of educated minds in the state
of Oregon. I can't believe that
with the U of 0, LCC and the
numerous business minds the

Fending off migrator y fat
( from down under)
lrmsherPie
by Karen lrmsher

TORCH Editor

It's our turn to be cold now. If we lived near the equator
we wouldn't have to take turns, but since we don't we have
to trade off with the bottom side of the planet.
So now it's their turn to be warm. Down in New Zealand,
which spans the 45th parallel just as Oregon does, they're
digging through their drawers in search of shorts, and shoving unnecessary coats to the backs of closets. China bowls of
fresh juicy strawberries are glinting in the afternoon sunlight
next to the crumpets on tea trays. And as winter's protective
layers of fat slip off the bodies of the tanning New
Zealanders, guess where that fat's headed.
It's pretty obvious. They get the sun now and we get the
fat. On a clear night a careful observer can almost see bulging flocks of fat jiggling their way north, following
migratory routes that antedate the birth of Christ. It's not a
pretty sight. Lucky we don't have many clear nights.
And fortunately we have some say-so as to how much of
the fat from down-under ends up overwintering on our
bodies. The following are a few tips taken from the recent
best seller "Fending Off Migratory Fat" by Various Experts.

• Present a moving target. Walk, dance, take up mud
wrestling. Whatever you like best. Always keep some part of
the body moving, even if it's just a foot, lip or eyebrow.
Parts that don't move, however, make attractive landing
sites.
• Construct daily mandalas of carrot, celery and apple
slices centered around cloves of garlic, and keep one near
you at all times. Eat at least one 12-inch mandala per day,
thus protecting yourself from both the inside out and the
outside in.
• Smear a discrete dab of tofu on the underside of any
piece of furniture near where you expect to remain motionless for more than a minute or two. Migratory fat is
known to be extremely conservative, and the species that
comes to Oregon still fears tofu. A couple years from now,
if tofu-eating catches on with the general population, this
may not work. Then you'll have to keep your eye out for
newly introduced foods. Not sweets, though. Exotic sweets
often find easy acceptance. Witness gelato, baklava, and
various types of Danish.
That about sums it up, except for the obvious and most
effective fat avoidance ploy -- following the sun. Simply
develop a lifestyle that keeps you out of the path of
migratory fat and you '11 never have to smear tofu under
your bed again.

city possesses, solutions can't
be found to take the pressure
off the taxpayers.
As a business owner and
student in the community, I
have learned that democracy
can become tainted if officials
forget who they represent.
Perhaps if our el~cted officials
were to watch how college
governments are administered,
they could learn something
about basing decisions on the
welfare of the community.
It's certain our college governments are the only virgin
democracies left in the city of
Eugene.

FOOD FOR
,THOUGHT
Submitted by Loretta Plaa, R.D.
LCC Nutrition Instructor

Are men completely exempt from any risk of osteoporosis?

Osteoporosis is an age-related disease that results·in decreased
bone mass as one gets older. It also results in increased risk of
fractures. Bone builds its mass between the ages of 25 and 45; it
begins to decrease after that. Women are more likely to suffer
from osteoporosis than men, but men are not completely exempt.
.
At bone maturity, men have 30 percent more bone than
women. That means they have more bone to start with before
the process of bone loss begins. This may be due to more weightbearing exercise and higher calcium intake during the years
before bone reaches its peak mass.
Among those individuals who live to be 90 years old, 32 percent of the women and 17 percent of the men will suffer hip fractures related primarily to osteoporosis.
For the most part, high bone density, weight-bearing exercise
and minimal hormonal influences reduce men's risk of
osteoporosis. But it is still important to get enough calcium in
the diet.
The U.S. RDA for calcium is 1000 mg. Dairy products such as
milk, cheddar cheese, and leafy greens like broccoli are good
sources of calcium.
To ensure the bones hold onto calcium, a moderate amount of
weight-bearing exercise such as walking or jogging is needed.
Remember smoking, alcohol abuse, and high caffeine consumption are also factors in bone loss, although the amounts
necessary to affect bone loss are not clear.
Next week, Food For Thought will look at the best food
sources of calcium for both men and women.

Beth Naylor and Loretta Plaa are both Registered Dietitians
(RD) with masters' degrees in nutrition. They teach various
nutrition courses in LCC's Home Economics Department.

DWP helps find jobs
by Brian Alvstad

TORCH Staff Writer

'' Anybody
who
is
unemployed knows that it is a
highly competitive world out
there in the job market" says
Audre Keller, who is experiencing that competition first
hand.
Keller had steady employment as an office manager,
but when the paint company
she worked for went out of
business, she found herself out
of work. After looking for a
job on her own for a while, she
turned to LCC' s Dislocated
Worker Program for help.
Now she's learning valuable
job searching skills that
hopefully will lead to stable
employment.
The object of the DWP is to
help find jobs for those who
are unemployed due to changing economic conditions. Ted
Lay, Marketing Specialist for
the program, estimates that
since the project was started in
October 1983, over 600
workers have been served.
To qualify as a dislocated
worker, applicants must have
been forced out of their jobs
for reasons beyond their control. They also must have exhausted, be receiving, or be
eligible for unemployment insurance benefits. The situation
must also be such that it is
unlikely that., they can return to
work within six months.

Half truths disguised as lies
Dear Annabanana,

I don't like being lied to. I
got angry with my roommate
when I found out he'd been
out with a person he'd agreed
not to see. A "friend" told me
I'd been misinformed about
the incident; I'd been given a
"half truth" perhaps, but not
lied to.
It seems to me that the truth
is the truth and a lie is a lie.
But what's a "half-truth?"
Sincerely, The Other Half

Dear Other Half
You're very perceptive and
absolutely right. The truth of
the matter is, it sounds more
virtuous to call something a
half truth instead of admitting
it's a half lie. And maybe it'll
spare some hurt feelings,
(usually the feelings of the person who's said it.)
But that's not the half of it.
We're surrounded by
commonly-accepted examples
of this subtle ploy to gloss over
reality. You've seen them, and
maybe even unwittingly used a
few yourself.
When your instructor tells
you you're almost right,
what's really being said?
Almost right is still wrong.
And when you tell your instructor your assignment is
almost done, what are you

really saying? Almost done is
still unfinished.
Sometimes the half lie is
pretty well hidden. "Sorry,
Sold Out'' means somebody
didn't order enough. "This
Register Closed'' means the
clerk saw your grocery cart piled high and decided it was
time for lunch.
How about statements
where the lie is more than 50
percent of the deal? A sign on
the front door of a shop
reading "Closed Temporarily,'' can mean anything from a
five-minute
break
to
bankruptcy. And think about
this
one:
is
a

I

''Two-for-the-price-of-one''
sale really the same as a halfprice sale?
And there's only a halftruth in the newest method of
fund-raising, ''Free Car
Washes." What dirty car
owners generally pay is three
to five dollars depending on
the smile of the girl in the wet
sweat shirt.
And "Rain Checks" aren't
funny here in Oregon. But I
think you'd better take a raincheck on your roommate's
story. Tell him to get smart \
and tell you the truth, the
whole truth, and nothing but ,
the truth. You've got a 50-50
chance he'll go for it, and
that's no lie.

Fast,

After a screening to determine eligibility by the Oregon
State Employment Division,
approved applicants are admitted to the program free of
cost. The first two weeks are
spent in classes for "Career
Life Planning.'' Resume'
writing, interview and job
search skills are a few of the
areas covered.
Permanent job search skills ·
are emphasized so that, according to Lay, workers can use
them throughout their lives.
Keller agrees that those talents
are important, saying that it
takes "more skills to get a job
than to keep one.''
After the classroom training, the workers form a ''Job
Club,'' a kind of support
group, until work is found. A
resource room, where phones,
job listings, and typewriters
are available is open to the
workers on a drop-in basis.
Lay says that the room is a
good starting point for a day
of job hunting.

The program is financed
through the federal Job Training Partnership and operates
with the cooperation of the
Private Industry Council and
the Oregon State Employment
Division. Budgeted at
$300,000 a year, the program
received a $500,000 grant from
the Department of Labor last
year and another $675,000 this
year.

People from Southeast Asia acquire skills in electronics course at LCC

Refugees learn skills
by Brian Alvstad
TORCH Staff Writer

A unique electronics class at
LCC especially for Southeast
Asian refugees offers, for
many of the students, a new
beginning.
Designed specifically for
refugees, the class teaches electronics assembly skills needed
for entry-level jobs. Approximately 14 refugees from Vietnam, Cambodia and Laos are
enrolled in the six-week class,
which meets Tuesday and
Thursday nights.
Through the work of many
departments, the class began
in early October, and is funded by Oregon Refugee Project's On-the-Job-Training, so
the students are not paying
any fees.

the amount of time available.
Mulder says that the goal of
the class is to give students
skills for entry-level jobs in the
smaller electronics businesses.
From there, students can move
into larger assembly plants,
such as Spectra-Physics in
Eugene.

Eleanor Mulder, job
developer for refugees at
LCC's Downtown Center
says, "Without the flexibility
of •the Industrial Technology
Department, we wouldn't
have been able to do this."
The department, with the help
of coordinator, Renee
LoPilato, is providing the
classroom and necessary
equipment.
Once the plans were final,
counselors notified refugees in
the community. The Private
Industry Council screened applicants to see if they would be
able to handle the precision
work required in electronics.

The course is also a good introduction to college, according to Sherry Ferlaak, program manager for refugees at
LCC. For many of the
refugees, this is their first experience in credit and vocational courses at LCC.
All of the learning is
through hands-on experience
with electronic components.
Students work at their own
rate on the various projects,
and Assistant Instructor
James Heilman says that the
skills learned are practical and
common in the workplace.
Nam Nep, a refugee enro·lled in the class, escaped from
communist Cambodia with his
family about two years ago
and has been in Oregon ever
since. He says that he had no
marketable skills before
enrolling in the class but now
hopes to get a job in electronics assembly.

The Industrial Technology
Department also simplified a
regular electronics class so that
basic skills could be learned in

Overall, Mulder says, the
class lets the refugees know
that they aren't totally out of
the job market in this country.
"It gives them a feeling of
hope.''

When Hsuan Liu entered a
Beijing (Peking), China,
department store four years
ago, he had no idea he was
coming to a turning point ·in
his life.
Liu, then a high school student studying English, met
Sam and Roberta Konnie of
Veneta while shopping and
took advantage of the opportunity to practice his English.
The trio became better acquainted as he joined them to
help them shop. The Veneta
couple enjoyed Liu so much,
they corresponded regularly
after returning home.
After Liu graduated from
high school he was unable to
attend a Chinese university.
According to Liu, ''Only two
percent of China's high school
graduates have an opportunity
to go to a Chinese college or
university."
The Konnies' offer to pay
for Liu's college education in
the United States was so incredible at first that Liu didn't
quite believe it and didn't tell
his parents right away. "I was
eager to come and was so overwhelmed by their generosity.
My parents didn't believe it
was true at first and were worried about me going so far
away for several years. Now
they are happy I have this opportunity to go to college,'' he
says.
Liu finally received· his
Chinese passport three-and-ahalf years later, in December
1984. Two weeks later, after a
54 hour train trip to Northern
China to obtain his early
school records and after assuring the U.S. officials that his
extra-curricular school activities did not make him a
Communist, Liu picked up his
U.S. visa and packed for his
trip to America.

Last March, with the paperwork completed, the Konnies
wired Liu the money for his
plane fare. After saying goodbye to his family and friends,
Liu boarded his first airplane
for a 19-hour flight to the U.S.
"I was very excited from
Beijing to San Francisco. I
called Sam from California to
let him know I was in the U.S.
I began to worry about what
my future would be on the
flight to Eugene. I still thought
it was a dream that I could
meet someone in a department
store in China and four years
later be coming to the United
States to go to college,'' Liu
confessed.
Liu spent his first three
months in Eugene attending
the American English Institute
at the U of O to improve his
English. Then he enrolled at
LCC as a full-time student this
fall.
During his first seven months in America, Liu has noticed a number of differences
between the two cultures. "So

there's a lot of new things to

College atmospheres are
quite different too, according
to Liu. Chinese universities
have big walls around them
and are closed to anyone who
is not a student. Another difference, Liu adds, is "In
America, people change
clothes everyday; in China,
people change once or twice a
week. Chinese teachers can
only wear a simple looking
coat and American college
teachers dress very pretty.''
The

have
significantly changed Liu's
life. Liu's job opportunities in
China included being a cleaning worker, an elevator
operator or a store salesman.
Now he's full of hope that he
can use his mind to be an interpreter, or involved in international trade.

New manual helps identify bias
by Kelli J. Ray

for the TORCH

"Before, you could know
that something was wrong, but
not be able to put your finger
on it. Now, you can go to the
book and look it up," says
Women's Center Coordinator
Kate Barry. She is referring to
new federal sex discrimination
manuals received by the LCC
Staff Development office at
the beginning of fall term.
But the effect on LCC will
be minimal.
"It won't affect my
classes,'' says Kate Barry, '' It
might affect planning, like for
workshops for the college."
Yet Barry is glad to have the
manuals because of their value
as a reference collection.
Varying in length from 90 to

145 pages, the nine Title IX
manuals, printed in 1979, are
filled with case studies of sexual -- as well as racial and
ethical -- discrimination.
These examples help teachers,
counselors and others
recognize discrimination, and
also tell how to fife complaints.
Jay Jones , director of Student Activiti es, browsed
through one brochure devoted
to planning a bias-free graduation ceremony, and said, "It
deals with things we try to give
a lot of attention to anyway.''
One example, he says, is ' 'the
language,- like changing 'he',
to 'he and she' ... in our announcements.''
Since the college is already

aware of •this · sort of sex
discrimination, Jones says,
there will be little or no change
in current policies.
Title IX of the 1972 Educational Amendment is the first
federal law to prohibit sex
discrimination of students by
educational institutions receiv. ing federal financial aid, explains one of the manuals.
Also, ' 'the intent of the law is
to eliminate sex discrimination
in the programs, policies, and
administration of educational
institutions."
"I don't know why they
came when they did,'' said
Barbara Mathewson, secretary
for the Staff Development office, "We didn't order them,
and they are a little dated."

Rationalist wants hooks

by Doug Howard
for the Torch

Rationalist Bert Tryba, currently helping reorganize the
long-defunct Oregon Rationalist Association, claims LCC's
library has few Rationalism reference materials.
Tryba made his claim during an interview on Oct. 21,
following a forum essay appearing in the Oct. 11 TORCH.
Tryba has been surveying libraries to see what books on
Rationalism might be on the · shelves, and which, that he
regards as essential, are missing.
Rationalism is a philosophy which claims that human
reason alone is sufficient to explain the nature of humans and
the universe. It rejects revelation and the supernatural, and
was most popular in Oregon from about 1875 to 1920.
The library's Subject Index currently lists books on Rationalism by Kenneth Burke, John Bagnell Bury, and Thomas
Paine. A group of essays edited by Jeane J. Kirkpatrick is
also catalogued.
Tryba claims the library needs more books on the topic,
"to establish the intellectual integrity of the library." A small
number of quality books, accessible to all, would be satisfactory, he says.
But LCC Library Director Clifford Dawdy has seen no
great interest in Rationalism, or any other volume in the
religion or philosophy category, for that matter. He further
notes that book recommendations come from the LCC faculty, the LRC staff itself, and from students.
Still, acquiring such books is a problem that Tryba and
Dawdy agree on. Tryba notes that quality hardbound books
by classical Rationalist writers are rare or out of print. And
Dawdy says money to buy new books doesn't exist, as
reported in a recent TORCH story, making recommendations
for any book purchase a moot point,

May blooms into key member of Titan spikers

Sophomore Carla May, a
5'4" setter and all-around
player, has had a strong
season so far for the Titans'

Besides serving, May has
been playing as a setter and

volleyball team.
May, a Physical Education
major in her second year at
Lane, prepped at Cottage
Grove High School and has
played volleyball for over 11
years. She didn't play last year
for the Titans because she felt,
"college ball was on the level
of the China or US Olympic
teams. I didn't think I could
make it, but then I saw it was
low key so I went out this year
and made it.'' So academically
May is a sophomore, but since
this is her first year as a college
athlete she still has freshman
eligibility status.
"I try to keep the confidence level up. Off the court
I try to be the team joker, and
keep people laughing to relieve
the pressure,'' commented
May.
Her coach, Steve Tornblom,
feels her positive influence on
the team has been really
helpful.
May is one of the most consistent servers on the team,
converting over 95 percent. At
the beginning of the season she

weeks ago in Washington,
Coach Tornblom started using
her as a front row hitter when
Sue Schreiber went down with
a sprained right wrist. Tornblom was impressed with her
play and plans to let her continue to play hitter as long as
she continues to play well.
During her first opportunity
as hitter -- in the Shoreline
tourney -- the 5'4" May proved you don't have to be tall to
spike, collecting an impressive
32 kills over the two-day tournament.
"She'll be playing the full
line-up because she has looked
so good in games, and has
come through in clutch situations. She always said she
could (play hitter and allaround), but she finally proved it to me,'' admits Tornblom.
According to Tornblom,
May has improved tremendously this season, although in
the early season, along with
the rest of the team, she wasn't
playing to her full potential.
However, Tornblom solved

that by installing the 6-2 offense and put May as a setter,
and she found her niche. "Her ·
total game has improved so
much. In the 5-1 offense Carla
wasn't setting. Now she is
more in the flow of things and
has become a ~ore aggressive
player," commented Tornblom. "If she makes a mistake
she doesn't let it bother her
like she did earlier in the
season.''

May.
So if May can continue her
red-hot serving and all-around
play, and it catches on with the
rest of her teammates, the
Titans should be a force to

Titan spikers to close roller
coaster season at home
'

by Darren Foss

TORCH Sports Editor

The Titans'. volleyball team
continued their roller coaster
season by losing three key
NWAACC league matches to
end the teams playoff hopes.
On Wednesday, Nov. 6, the
Titans traveled to Oregon City
to take on the Clackamas
Cougars, hoping to extend
their two-match win streak
and move up in the Region IV
standings. However, the
Cougars had something else in
mind for the Titans, and
shocked Lane in three-straight
games, 15-11, 15-4, and 15-8.
Clackamas dominated the
match as the Titans couldn't
seem to get their offense on
track, while the Cougars
capitalized on Lane's
mistakes.
According to Coach Tornblom, only Nicki Essman had
a fairly decent match, collecting six kills to lead Lane's feeble offense.

21 seconds to elapse between its first and fifth place finishers.
The old record was 35 seconds. Another surprise about the
Titan's victory was that only one person finished in the top 10,
and in 10th place at that.
"It's not too often," says Wilken, "that you can win the team
title and only place one person in the top ten. It's a different
kind of twist to the team standings. It's never happened
before.''
Diana Nicholas, the first Titan to cross the finish line, captured 10th place overall at 19:08.8; freshman Val Quade placed
an impressive 11th place overall at 19: 17 .O; Ann Macklin placed
12th at 19:20.5; Merry Gesner took 13th at 19:22.9; Stacey
Cooper finished 14th at 19:29.3; ·Wendy Barrett came in 23rd at
20:19.8, and Suzy Taggart finished 27th at 20:29.4.
The Titans assembled a low score of 45 points, followed by
Bellevue CC with 74, while Spokane and Green River CC tied
for third with 83 points each.
Congratulations, Titans!
