Hazardous wastes -- potential danger to LCC campus
by Lisa Zimmerman

TORCH Associate Editor

"Of course, proper disposal
of hazardous waste products is
necessary,'' says Dave
Wienecke, assistant director of
Campus Services. "I just wish
society had thought of this 20
years ago."

Wienecke will meet with
Cynthia Parker of the Salem
Department of Environmental
Quality to investigate proper
disposal of LCC's hazardous
waste products on Tuesday,
Dec. 10.
The use of chemicals like
lacquer paint or ethyl alcohol,
that may create hazardous
waste products, have been an
integral part of the workings

the Oregon Department for
Environmental Quality (DEQ)
to find appropriate disposal
methods.
Wienecke is also part of a
task force which includes Bill
Mansell, assistant to the Vice
President of Administrative
Services, Mabel Armstrong,
Science Department head, and
Roger Cardinal, purchasing
director. The task force has
been set up by President
Turner to help the college
develop a procedure for
educating employees about
potential hazards in the
workplace.
says
Unfortunately,
Wienecke, although there are
now laws mandating proper
waste disposal, in many cases
the legislation has come before

of institutions such as LCC for
decades. But Wienecke says it
is only in recent years that
society has demanded state
and federal guidelines for the
disposal of these wastes.
Wienecke says it is now his
job to centralize and inventory
all potentially hazardous waste
chemicals used by the college,
and work with the LCC Campus Services Department and

there is a way to meet the law's
requirements.
As an example, Wienecke
cites an Environmental Quality law which requires the college to dispose of paint thinners and solvents by recycling
them. In order to comply with
this law, Wienecke asked the
DEQ for the names of companies that do this sort of
recycling, and subsequently
contacted the names he received.
"Neither of the companies
would accept them (the
wastes)." According to
Wienecke, one said it would
accept the thinner's mineral

Snow, ice forres shutdown

Closure decisions draw mixed feelings

by Ann Van Camp
Torch Feature Editor

Over the past two weeks,
snow and ice froze more than
just local yards and roads;
LCC's fall term timetables got
the cold shoulder, too. Hazardous driving conditions kept

many students home on Nov.
22, and the campus was closed
on Dec. 2, and delayed two
hours on Dec. 3.

Class time, already reduced
by two holidays and a bomb
threat, suffered further loses
due to the weather. Many

students were relieved, but
some were peeved.
According to LCC's Pres.
Richard Turner,, closure decisions can't satisfy everyone.
"If you close, people are
mad because you interfere
with the studies. But if you
stay open and somebody

Winter Tenn .registration

scheduled for finals week
by Lisa Zimmerman

TORCH Associate Editor

Finals may be foremost in
each student's mind, but
registration and financial aid
for winter term are also important considerations.
Registration
With one exception, says
Bob Marshall, director of admissions, winter term registration, which takes place during
finals week (Dec. 16-20), will
be no different than fall term.
The exception -- new
students taking 9 or more
credits, who will now be required to undergo mandatory
testing before registration.

Marshall says the tests are
an "objertive skills check" to
test students' reading, writing,
and mathematical abilities.
And it's impossible to fail the
tests. According to Marshall,
"they are used for advising
purposes only. •''

Registration for continuing
students begins Monday, Dec.
16 from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. On
Tuesday, Wednesday and Friday the hours are 9 a.m. to 5
p.m. On Thursday, Dec. 19,
registration, along with the
Counseling, Testing, and
Financial Aid offices will be.

notices that one or two cars
slid off the side of the road,
then they're angry because we
didn't close.''
Turner says closure decisions require careful evaluations. "Campus Security
checks with the Weather
Bureau and checks the campus
conditions. It's a matter of experience; they can compare
this year's conditions with past
conditions and know what'll
be best."
And Turner says the objective is ''to do the best for the
most people.'' But he says individuals have to make decisions, too.
"We can't take responsibility for each person. If their
own conditions require them
not to come in when we're
open, then they have to make
that decision. Our being open
doesn't mandate they come
in."
What was the main difference between the Nov. 22

conditions and the Dec. 2 conditions? According to Security
Manager Paul Chase, timing.
On Friday, Nov. 22, LCC
stayed open despite icy conditions, which caused numerous
traffic accidents and near
misses. According to standard
college operating procedures,
closure decisions must be
made no later than 5:30 a.m.
By that time, Security reports
to the president, then the
president makes the final decision based on the report.
''The conditions weren't
loathsome at 5:30 a.m., or
even at 6 a.m.," says Chase.
("Loathsome" is the word
Chase uses to define the conditions that have to exist before
he'll recommend closure.)

Chase, "but at 7 a.m., it

Finals Week rights for students
by Denise Abrams

for the TORCH

Many LCC students and
some staff may be unclear as
to the students' rights, and
teachers' responsibilities during dead week and final exam
week.
Jack Carter, vice president
for student services, says "the
intent of dead week (the week
before finals week) is to keep
extracurricular activities to a
minimum." But that doesn't
mean instructors can't assign
homework or give quizzes during that time. As a matter of
fact, Carter says, "it would be
a time to give homework, for

review's sake."
And about final exam week,
Jim Ellison, dean of Telecommunications and Liberal Arts,
says in cases where a student
has more than two exams in
one day or a final schedule
change, the student should explain his or her problem to the
instructor and request an adjustment. He says usually the
student and the instructor can
work these problems out, but
if not, then the student should
talk with the department head.
Ellison says, ''If a student
needs to contact a teacher during his/her posted final exam
week office hours, and can't
because the teacher is not on
campus then, the student

should also check with the
department head."
There are exceptions to
every rule. Faculty members
occasionally give the final test
during dead week, and then go
over it during the final exam
session as a term review.
Ellison says some classes
may not be designed for a
written final, but must still
meet at the scheduled final exam time. He points out that
the "Instructor's Final Exam
Schedule" states, "If an exam
is not appropriate for a particular class the instructQr
shall plan a worthwhile educational activity with his/her
class during the scheduled
final exam period."

Dear Editor:
I'm a senior citizen currently enrolled in Audio Production, and one of our class
assignments was to conduct an
interview, and then edit it.
It's really a funny twist that
what often starts out making
us feel apprehensive can, in
very short time, actually turn
into a really fun experience
and have rewarding, longlasting repercussions.

I enjoyed every part of our
assignment, and I also found
out that an interview is
sometimes just the beginning
of yet another discovery -- not
only as a new learning adventure, but about myself. It was
easy to gather the available
statistics pertaining to senior
citizen enrollment at LCC (see
article elsewhere in this issue)
and, while my interview may
not have brought forth a
bonanza of detailed information, the most important fact
is • that this opportunity for
persons over 62 to enroll in
classes at a bargain price does
indeed exist at LCC. More
seniors should try it -- you

might like it!
My enrolling in an LCC
course offered me the
challenge I was looking for -it kept me on my toes, but that
was exactly what I needed. I
greatly enjoyed having be~n
part of the interaction in a
lively class; and I picked up
not only valuable new
knowledge (theory and handson), but a new enthusiasm for
today and tomorrow. At
almost the end of the semester,
it is a perfect time for me to
say: thank you, Jeff (Hanley)
-- Thank you, LCC!
fromLCB.
(Elsie Benson, LCC student)

I would like you to know
how pleased I was with the artic.le Marilyn Meyers wrote
about me in the Oct. 25 issue
of the TORCH. All the articles
that were printed last spring
when I received the Outstanding Teacher of the Year
award were written from information in my personnel
file. Marilyn took the time to
find out something about me
and for that I am very appreciative.
I was apprehensive about
talking to a reporter because I
wasn't sure she would
understand what I was trying
to say about my program or
myself. Marilyn, with her
business
background,
understood what I was talking
about and my feelings about
the way I teach here in
Florence.
Thank you for doing a

December could be enjoyable
if Christmas would go away
IrmsherPie
by Karen Irmsher

TORCH Editor

December can be a tough month to get through. After 42
years, I've neither come to terms with Christmas, nor figured
out how to escape it.
There's no doubt about it -- Jesus was an extraordinary person. Maybe he was born with an above-average portion of divine
spirit, as many believe. Or maybe, since his parents believed he
was special, he was encouraged from a very young age to follow
his conscience. The Quakers call it the "inner light." Thoreau
called it "marching to a different drummer." Either way, Jesus
is well worth emulating.
But what would he think of Christmas? Of hoards of people,
charge cards in hand, elbowing their way through Meier &
Frank's 25-percent-off sale merchandise-filled aisles in an attempt to get the good stuff before it's gone? Or of parental lies
to trusting children about an omniscient red-suited fat geezer
bearing massive quantities of gifts?
I must confess, I used to like Christmas. But that was when
my mother was alive and could be counted on 'to make
Christmas happen. My Scroogish attitude, along with a great
quantity of other societal criticisms, developed after she died. '
After 28 years of conditioning to receive wonderful gifts at
Christmas, quite abruptly there were none for me. And an even
crueler reality, since I had just become a ''welfare mother'' with
three young children, there were none for them.
In a society as materialistic as ours, symbolic tokens of love
just don't cut it. For the poor, Christmas is a time to feel even
more deprived than usual.

But this gift-giving imperative, with its unspoken correlation
to love, has more to do with following the rules for being considered "normal" by the rest of society, than it has to do with
Jesus. Jesus himself, according to the Bible, was not a follower
of norms.
Jesus came to this earth, I believe (Gospel According to lrmsher), to bring us light. To persuade humans to seek loving
resolution to conflicts, rather than revenge and victory through
superior power. To say that this life is not all there is -- that the
spirit never dies. And to tell us that we will be held accountable
for our treatment of fellow human beings.
The decision to celebrate his birth on Dec. 25, according to an
article in a recent issue of "Utne Reader," was arbitrary.
In Roman times, the article says, Dec. 25 was the date of a
Mithraic (a religion) festival celebrating the birthday of Sol Invictus, the Unconquered Sun, as well as the final day of the
Roman Saturnalia, a seven-day pagan winter-solstice celebration. Sol Invictus was observed with feasts, singing and the giving of gifts for good luck. Of Saturnalia, a Greek named
Libanius wrote: ''The impulse to spend seizes everyone. He who
the whole year through has taken pleasure in saving and piling
up his pence becomes suddenly extravagant."
The earliest mention of Christmas, on the Roman Philocalian
calendar, notes its observance in 336 A.D.
The common thread weaving itself through these traditions
(all originating in the Northern Hemisphere) is the celebration of
light during the time of greatest darkness. The Jewish Hanukkah
is also a Feast of Lights.
At the very time of the year (or of our lives) when there appears to be the least to celebrate, we need our hope, and our
faith in a better tomorrow, the most. And we need to forget the
heaviness of life, for a while, and just celebrate life.
But it would sure be easier for me if Christmas would go
away. Now that I have a little more money, I have to chose between buying presents (and feeling like a hypocrite), and not buying them (which makes people feel bad.) I buy the presents.

TORCH Staff Writer

Imagine an LCC student sitting at a computer par•ticipating in a realistic twoway conversation with a
videodisc "teacher" to learn
the latest electrical, electronic
or mechanical technologies.
LCC is one of IO colleges in
the US selected for a major national project that applies this
innovative technology to learning. Beginning this winter,
LCC becomes the regional site
for "Project Leader" -- a project designed to help develop
instructional and tutoring programs by using interactive
technology that pairs the
videodisc and the microcomputer.

The Sony Corporation and
the National Education Corporation will provide about
$100,000 in equipment and
materials, and LCC will
receive five work units, plus
staff training.
"It's probably the most
powerful educational tool
we've ever had," says Jim
Ellison, LCC dean for liberal
arts and telecommunications.
''Television goes just one way.
Interactive video gives you a
much wider range of activities."
What makes this interactive
technology so powerful?

pace on a system that calls up

Senior citizen recolllDlends
LCC classes to fellow seniors
Contributed by Elsie Benson
LCC Student

For my interview assignment in Audio Production
class I opted to gather enrollment information about
students 62 years-of-age, or
older, also referred to as
senior citizens. Being a senior
citizen myself, I wanted to
find out to what extent other
Lane County seniors are participating in the excellent learning and enrichment oppor•tunities available to them at
LCC -- at bargain prices.
'' A person 62 or older may
take LCC classes and pay only
the first $10 tuition for each
class, plus fees," according to
the 1984 fall class schedule.
This fee structure was
established in March 1982.
I gathered information by
talking to Sue Jordan,
research associate at LCC's
Productivity Center, which
provides general data, internal
evaluations, federal/ state
reporting, institutional

research and planning for the
administration and decisionmakers of the College. Its
research newsletter, '' LCC
Datapoints, '' gives more
detailed information about the
center's activities and the services available.
While, at the present time,
there are no ready answers to
such questions as, for example:
• Which credit classes (or
departments) are senior
citizens enrolled in?
• How many senior citizens
are taking credit classes on the
main campus? How many at
the outreach centers?
• How many senior citizens
are enrolled in LCC non-credit
classes?
• Which credit classes/noncredit classes have the highest
concentration of senior citizen
participation?
The readily available
statistics of LCC credit class
enrollment for senior citizens
are shown in the following

Need for child care
assessed at registration
by Tom Ruggiero

TORCH Staff Writer

A Child Care Needs Assessment Survey will be included
in the formal registration process winter term.
According to Judy Dresser,
Home Economics Department
head, the purpose of the
I I -question survey will be to
determine the number of LCC
students who have preschoolage children, and whether
these students would take advantage of more affordable
LCC child care facilities. The
survey was developed by
Dresser, ASL CC Senator Kris
Pahle, and Sue Jordan,
research associate of LCC's
Productivity Center.
Dresse·r says the idea for the
survey came after Pahle began ·
investigating the possible relationship between poor retention of LCC students, inadequate child care facilities, and
the prohibitive cost of child
care.

"We had recognized a need
for child care expansion and
lower fees, but just had not
acted on it," says Dresser,
''and then the ASLCC became
concerned and contacted me.''
A previous survey conducted in 1980 and prepared
by an LCC research associate,
Juanita Foellinger, showed
that of 1,098 registering LCC
students who had children
under 12 years old:

will still cost a parent:

• $60 a month for infants
and toddlers (6 weeks to 3
years of age) for six hours a
day, two days a week; or
• $120 a month for children
3 to 5 years of age for six
hours a day, two days a week.

or more career ideas in mind,''
she adds.
One student had been considering the field of computer
science. On learning, through
her explorations, how much
training was required for success in the field, she decided to
change her career goal. Hahn
says this was valuable because
the student was able to find
out that computer science
wasn't what she wanted before
investing a lot of time or
money in that direction.
Another student had the
same experience when he looked into ski resort management.
After visits to several ski
lodges including Odell, Crescent, Sun River, and Blue
Lake, he discovered that ski
lodge management was a lot
harder than it looked, and he,
too, changed career goals.
Many students find that
their career goals suit them
perfectly, however, and with
the help of Hahn's class, they
are able to pursue their goals
further than they were
previously able.
"I feel like there was a gap
between the Career Planning
classes and a student making a
career decision," says Hahn.
"I'm not knocking Career
Planning -- ifs a great class -but it's hard for students to
decide what to do with their
whole lives in just three months!" Hahn points out.
One of the ideas that currently excites Hahn is the
possibility of one of her future
students going to Ethiopia or
another third world country.
'' If someone were interested in
doing something career-wise
to help the situation there, we
could see what could be done
about placing him or her.''
The Peace Corp is even a
possibility, she says.
According to Hahn, when it
comes to career exploration,
"The sky is the limit!"

Wrap it inexpensively this year
by Ann Van Camp

TORCH Feature Editor

Dear Annabanana,
I love Christmas shopping,
but I hate wrapping the gifts!
Paper costs as much as the
gift, the ribbon is always two
inches too short, and I'm all
thumbs. I figure if anybody
can come up with a better way
to keep Christmas under
wraps, you can!
Sincerely,
Presently Unwrapped

Dear Presently,
First of all, there's nothing
wrong with brown paper
packages tied up with string.
It's catchy, and who knows; it
may become one of you
favorite things! Paper grocery
sacks work just fine. But be
selective and shop where you
can get "double strength"
quality. You can hand-color
your own designs with crayons
or felt markers, or cut out
magazine pictures and use
them like stickers.
And if you're low on string,
unravel an old (preferably red)
sweater and use the yarn. It's
wonderful stretchy stuff that
looks great with knots.
One way to beat the high
cost of paper is to save the

Sunday funnies. If you get the
Register Guard, you could
save 1393.7 square feet of
paper in a year's time. If you
happen to get the Oregonian,
you can increase your haul to
1624.3 square feet! And, you
can chose which side of the
paper you want to use.
But the part I like best, is
not worrying about how the
pieces match up. It's a whole
lot better than the year I was
wrapping a bathrobe for my
mother-in-law and ran out of
golden-winged angel paper
and had to patch the end of
the package with Mickey
Mouse and Goofy!
One of my favorite tricks is
the ol' bath towel wrapper. A
big present can be a tough
challenge; there's always too
much to tape, and the corners
always tear out. But a huge
towel and 6 or 7 safety pins
works great! And it's all

strong,
Wonderfully
delightfully huge, tremendously simple -- these wonderwraps
can turn nightmares into sweet
dreams! Just rubber band the
tops closed and heave'em
under the tree. The drab green
will look brilliant under the
twinkling lights, and the freeform shapes will add depth
and dimension to the base arrangement.
And it's really a good idea
to place these packages under
the tree promptly. Hiding
them, especially in the garage,
might give the garbage man
the best Christmas he's ever
had, and your family would
probably want you to trash
your new wrapping ideas.
(If you'd like to have Annabanana answer YOUR question, submit it to The TORCH
office before 5 p. m. Tuesdays.
If you'd like to give Annabanana a bad time about the
replies, there's no deadline.)

Question: How can I get through the holidays without gaining
10 pounds?

Some of us are already in the Thanksgiving to January binge,
waiting for a New Year's resolution to save us. Making that
resolve now can prevent the painful process of January weight
loss. Resolve to enjoy the holiday food, but to have some control by planning ahead in three areas.
• Plan non-food activities

Decorate a Yule log for your fireplace.
Treat yourself to a bubble bath.
Treat the birds by coating a pinecone with peanut butter, then
rolling it in birdseed. Set it outside and count the birds!
• When you are the host

Don't plan to serve rich foods that you can't resist to have
around the house. They will be hard for you to resist before,
during, and after the party.
Include a stack of salad plates next to dinner-sized ones so you
and your guests can choose their own serving size.
When the party ends, send left-overs home with your guests,
or freeze small one-serving portions right away.
• When you are the guest

Don't go to a party hungry. You'll be more likely to head
right for the chips and dips if you are starving!
Position yourself away from the food or with your back to it.
Make continuous or automatic eating as difficult as you can.
Just taste, rather than fill up, on rich goodies and snacks.
Take small portions and savor every bite.

This music class for everyone
by Jodee Crilley

TORCH Staff Writer

Imagine a music course
which requires no prior music
background, is worth three
credits, and is transferrable to
the U of O as part of an Arts
and Letters cluster. Introduction to Jazz History fills the
bill.
It's a new, unique approach
to music instruction, according to instructor Carl
Woideck, and is scheduled for
Tuesdays and Thursdays from
10 to 11 :30 a.m. during the
winter term.
Woideck has been teaching
music at LCC for three years
and is a professional musician
as well. The Eugene Jazz Orchestra, and a jazz ensemble
called Lejazzhot, are two of
the three local bands which
share the benefit of his talents.
For the past nine years
Woideck has hosted a weekly
radio program on KLCC entitled, "Focus On Jazz." The
program airs every Wednesday, 7:30 to 8:30 p.m.
Woideck says, "My aim
through both the program and
the class is to educate and
entertain. I try to stimulate
people's imaginations and emphasize that jazz is fun."
Individuals do not need to
know how to read music to
take this course. In fact, Introduction to Jazz History
does not require any previous
music background, as it is not
a technical course. The class
deals with selections of jazz
from 1900-1985, and is geared
more toward the popular than
the esoteric.

Woideck says, "I try to
cover the music from each
decade equally. People may

Titan men undefeated after three games
by Darren Foss

TORCH Sports Editor

The Titans' men's basketball team is off to a hot start
compiling an undefeated 3-0
record. They slipped by their
cross-town rivals, the Northwest Christian College
Crusaders, and collected two
wins in Coos Bay to win the
Tip-Off Tournament Championship.
In their season opener,
Tuesday Nov. 26, the Titans
won a nail-biter against the
Crusaders, 80-79, after
holding a three point lead at
the half, 34-31.
Lane's offense was led by
Jerome Johnson with 21
points, while three other
Titans finished in doublefigures as Todd collected 19
points and 8 rebounds, while
Lester Jackson and Dave
Fleissner added 11 points
each.

"We proved two things
tonight. We proved we can
make the comeback when we
have to, and we showed we
have the stability to hold onto
the lead."
Then over Thanksgiving
weekend, Friday and Saturday
Nov. 29-30, the Titans competed in the Tip-Off Tournament hosted by Southwestern
Oregon CC (SWOCC) in Coos
Bay.
Lane opened the tourney
Friday night with a big 11
point win over the Western
Oregon State College Wolves
junior varsity team, ..78-67.
After being behind at the
half by one, 38-37, Lane came
from behind with a strong second half effort. The Titans'

victory was keyed by their
ability to beat the Wolves on
the board, outrebounding
WOSC 44-28. Meanwhile, the
Wolves converted only 37 percent of their shots due to the
Titans swarming defense.
Johnson led all scorers, collecting 26 points, while Bruce
Carter scored 15; Jackson had
14 and Todd added 13 for the
Titans balanced offensive attack.
The win advanced Lane into
Saturday night's Championship Game against the Umpqua CC Timbermen.
It was a close battle all the
way. The Titans led by only
four at halftime, 35-31, and
held that advantage in the second half. Both teams scored

34 points and Lane pulled out
the close 69-65 victory to take
. the Tip-Off Tournament
Championship.
Johnson led the way for the
Titans once again, coilecting
21 points and 13 rebounds,
while Todd amassed 16 points
and Jackson added 15 to the
winning cause.
The victory upped the
Titans' unheated string to
three games this season, all the
wins on the road.

in the game.
Lane's Sue Schreiber scored
on a lay-up with 15 seconds to
go, and Sheri Keith hit two
free throws to seal the Titan
victory.
''They hung in there and
battled back," says Loos,
noting the character his team
possesses.
Trina Travess was top
scorer for Lane with 16 points,
while Schreiber added 12
points. Nicki Essman grabbed
nine rebounds in the game
which, says Loos, is commendable because she was playing
against three taller opponents.
Then on Saturday, Nov. 23,
the Titans had a shoot-out
with the Olympic College
Rangers in Olympic, Wash.
The final score was LCC 67,
OC 58. The Titans went

scoreless for the first six
minutes of the game, but their
shooting started to warm-up
and drew them to a 31-point
tie by halftime .
Travess led the Titans offense, once again, with 19
points, and Christy Viltz also
scored in double-figures with
11.
Back on Friday, Nov. 22,
the Titans opened their season
against Northwest Bible College in Kirkland, Wash., losing a tough game 62-51.
Loos commented that the
Titans arrived late in Kirkland
due to bad weather; consequently they didn't have time
to warm-up.
The Titans next game is
Wednesday, Dec. 11, against
the Clark College Penguins

TORCH Sports Editor

This past week marked the 20-year anniversary of LCC's
mascot, the Titan, which became the college's official mascot
and nickname on Nov. 29, 1965.
It was voted in by a committee of student officers and administrative staff, including the college president at the time,
Dale Parnell.
Students submitted possible names to the committee and
the results of the vote was: 114 votes (56 percent) for the Titan
(Greek); 35 votes for the Lynx; Titan (missiles) 31; Dolphins
14, and 9 votes for all others. So the Titan was selected by an
overwhelming majority.
The Titans is not a very common nickname. Lane is a
member of an elite group of 15 colleges and universities
throughout the US with the nickname Titans.
Coincidently, one of the 14 others is also a member of the
Northwest Athletic Association of Community Colleges
(NWAACC), !he Tacoma CC Titans. Lane faces them every
now and then m tournaments or playoffs, causing the "Clash
of the Titans. "
Five other junior colleges have the nickname including
Beave~ County, (Penn.) CC; Brevard, (Fla.) CC; Clark
Techmcal College in Springfield, Ohio; Morris County College, (NJ); and the Sioux Empire, (Iowa) College.
The eight other Titans are major colleges and universities
with the Univ. of Cal.-State Fullerton leading the list, followed by Oral Roberts Univ. in Tulsa, Okla.; Univ. of Detroit,
(Mich); _Illinois-Weslayan Univ.; Marion College, (Ind.);
Westmm1ster, (Penn.) College; Univ. of Wisconsin-Oshkosh;
and Kent State Univ. (Trumbull Campus in Ohio).
The LCC Titans 20th birthday went by pretty much un~oticed, but _considering it occurred the day after Thanksgivmg and durmg a four-day weekend (make that a five-day
weekend due to the snow!), I can forgive the Athletic Department. However, I'd like to wish the Titans a happy 20th birthday!! May the next 20 years be just as successful, if not more.

"Stay with it, stay with it,"
encourages Dave Loos, head
coach of the LCC women's
basketball team, as he watches
the Titans run, jump and
reach for a loose ball during
basketball practice.
Loos believes his team is going to be very competitive and
says the players seem to be
"real hungry." The Titans intend to mete out a lot of
pressure defense and force opponents to play a Titan game.
According to Loos, there
are many tall players--6' to
6'2" --in the league, but the
Titans also possess formidable
height. Nicki Essman, who
prepped at Thurston High, is
the tallest Titan at 5' 11 '' •
Christi Viltz is 5' 10", and
three Titans stand 5'9". In addition, the Titans have a lot of
quickness.
Returning sophomore
guard, Trina Travess is the
team leader this year. Loos
says that with her maturity
and ability to lead, she's like a
"second coach." Travess,
from Springfield High, is one
of the team's best shooters.
Returning sophomore Viltz,
from The Dalles, is a talented
center with strong rebounding
skills and an aggressive ballhawking style, says Loos.

Do you want to celebrate
Christmas the same way as
you did last year?
In a workshop entitled
"Unplugging the Christmas
Machine "
Dec. 4 in the
Board Room; community
member Linda Pompei suggested ideas for reclaiming the
joys of Christmas.
It elps people, she said; to
tak
a look at recent
ases -- to find out
most important to
aoout the holiday. Then
looking for
sed on a

kshop was created
by people who
esign t e management
classes, and was
first
presented in 1977. Since then,
its creators have written a
book called "Unplug the
Christmas Machine,'' which
has been discussed on the
Merv Griffin, Phil Donahue,
and Today shows.
Pompei says women who

take the workshop find that
they want to handle Christmas
their own way. Not many men
attend the workshops, she
says, though occasionally
single-parent fathers do. "I
would like to see more men in
the class. It would be ideal if
the whole family could participate," she remarks.
Each participant is asked to
create a fantasy of an ideal
Christmas. For instance, a
snowy hillside, the whole
family gathered together, and
nobody drinking. Then plans
are made toward turning the
fantasy to reality. People are
encouraged to make small but
meaningful changes, and not
set themselves up for frustration by trying to change it all
in one year.
Proposed changes must be
consistent with reality, and
limiting expectations helps
make the changes possible.
''People sometimes fantasize too much; they imagine
Christmas as a Currier and
Ives or Norman Rockwell
painting. (But) we don't have
snow in Eugene all the time,''
Pompei said.

Have a toy and hobby Christmas
by Doug Howard
for the TORCH

Paper
castles,
the
"Titanic," a blimp, cast-metal
starships, trains and Lamborghinis have one thing in
common: They're inexpensive
Christmas gifts to give or enjoy.
Paul and Alan Agerter of
Eugene Toy & Hobby, 32 East
11th, and Wayne Albrecht of
Uncle Doug's Hobby Shop,
2833 Willamette, offer several
ideas for pinched-penny gifts.
They strongly encourage
potential customers to buy
early, as some items are in
limited supply.
Paper models, long popular
in Europe, are increasing in
favor. Actually a thin cardboard, they are exquisitely
printed and well-detailed.
Castles, for example, can be
purchased from $9-$25.
Neuschwanstein, home of
Mad Ludwig II of Bavaria, is
$13. The Micromodels firm
offers a miniature Kremlin for
$4.95. Dover Publications has
an early seaport, western

town, Main Street USA, a
19th-century farm and the
Emerald City of Oz, all for
under $5. The Brooklyn
Bridge, Empire State Building,
Taj Mahal and a three-footlong "TitanJc" are under $10.

Buyers preferring starshi s
over sea ships have the F

models are for boaro
they can also be finishe
minute objects d'art. A
has larger plastic models of e
starship USS Enterprise for
or $12.29, and a Vulcan shu
tie is $7 .50.
Plastic model kits are good
buys, ranging from $3 on up,
and some are unique. The
Revell Goodyear blimp, complete with side messages, is
$1 I. Revell also produces
NASA space shuttles for $4.99
and $12.99, and their
astronaut kit, with MMU
backpack is $10.98. Fans of
TV's potent "Airwolf"

supercopter may enjoy AMT's
$6.98 kit.
Car buffs may like Italeri's
Rolls Royce Phantom ($7.95)
or MPC's Corvette kit ($6.30).
Otaki offers their 1/12 Lamborghini Countach, with over
500 parts, for a princely $48.
In th ''basic'' model kits,
n etween $3.50 and

5 to $9.99. Ships are

firm also sells the
unusual "4077th M.A.S.H."
set for under $30. Train car
: kits range from $3-$6.25,
structure kits are $4 to $8.50.
Balsa wood is a traditional
structural material for model
aircraft kits. Riding a rising
wave of nostalgia and fun, the
venerable balsa wood, rubberpowered airplane is making a
comeback. The Comet kits are
$3.49 to $5.55._ Jetco kits are
$5 .49 to $7 .25, and the larger

Sterling offerings sell for $8.95
to $14.95. The new PeckPolymer kits, using a balsa
framework with a polymer
plastic covering, are all $5. 95.
Albrecht notes that accessories for kits are good
budget items. Bottled paints
are 69 cents to $1.29, and
spray paint cans cost $1. 70 to
$2.29.
The
unique
"Metalizer" paints are $1.79,
but need airbrushing. Badger
sells a CO2-propelled airbrush
for $15. Decals to personalize
models cost $3-$4.
Books are strongly recommended, not only for
reference, but as interesting
historical reading. Among
brands Albrecht suggested are
the squadron/signal series, $5;
Wheels & Tracks Magazine,
$4.25; and the Osprey series,
$7.95

Both stores urge budget
buyers to tell clerks their
dollar ceilings, and then
carefully examine all hobby
items. That unique, but
economical, Christmas gift
can be found by LCC students
with time and care.

What can you give to the
cat, dog, fish, or rodent who
has everything?
To a person who considers
his or her animal an important
part of the family, it's perplexing indeed. But fear not. There
are many low-cost solutions to
this problem.
Pet shops and kennels are
offering numerous sales to entice the Christmas shopper,
and with all the shops to
choose from, finding the
perfect gift for Fido shouldn't
be as difficult as it's cracked
up to be.
. Cal-Or Kennel Supply,
located at 2770 River Rd, is
featuring three types of
Christmas stockings to please
your pup: The stockings range
in price from $6 to $9, contain
laytex squeaky toys, canine
candy, rawhide chewies, doggie jerky, and other small
items to perk up your pup.
Saleswoman Nancy Anderson says that all dogs have
their own preferences. "As for
my dog -- everything!" she
jokes. But the overall favorite
is the rawhide chewie. "And
we have 18 different kinds of
chewies," says Anderson.
Another gift idea for the
good dog is a beagle bagle.
These low sodium treats come
in packages of six and sell for
$1.99. They can be purchased
at the Green Tub, on 2101
Bailey Hill Rd. Rawhide for-'
tune cookies may also be
found there, as well as doggie
sweaters in all colors and sizes.
Lorene Shoemaker, the
shop's owner for over nine
years, says she has sweaters in
black, red, green, and blue.
There are several different patterns, and the average price is
$10.49.

Many people have mice,
hampsters, or other small
creatures scampering about
the house. Most pet stores

If you're really budgetminded, you can create your
own gifts for your pets. A little

a bunny as a basket full of expensive cage accessories. An
omelet made with cheese and

The holidays are a time for
giving, and any gift is fine if
it's given from the heart.

Radio offers variety of holiday specials
by Susan Thompson
for the TORCH

Three area community radio
stations have several holiday
specials due to air this month,
including a variety of festive
music, old-time radio and
dramatized Yuletide literature.
KLCC, stereo 89.7 on the
FM dial, besides including
holiday music in each program
during December, has scheduled special broadcasts from
both American Public Radio
(APR) and National Public
Radio, says Denny Guehler,
promotions director for
KLCC.

KLCC Music specials include:

Renaissance Christmas,''
from 9-10 a.m., APR's Fiona
Ritchie, host of the weekly
series "A Thistle and
Shamrock,'' explores the
carols, traditional dance
tunes, and music of celebration and revelry form the
Celtic lands of Scotland,

Flying: Arwther option
by Wayne Magaway
TORCH Staff Writer

Travelers interested in taking a short trip over the
holidays, should consider
small aircraft charter services,
says Nick Long, a pilot for
Eugene Aircraft.
Long says that based on the
type of aircraft, the rate per
hour for that specific aircraft,
and the estimated flying time,
a reasonable fee can be
calculated. ''For instance,
with weather permitting, up to
three passengers can take a
trip from Eugene to Florence
in a light single engine
airplane, for about $75."
Since the aircraft has to
come back to home base, all
charter flights are charged on
a round trip basis, Long says.
"If the passenger wants to fly
back, a 'standby' fee will be
charged for the pilot to stand-

of unlimited rides
for just $40!

:i:.:~

by and wait.'' The extra fee is
$22 an hour, at a maximum of
nine hours in one day.
However, Long says if the
traveler is a licensed pilot,
he/ she can rent an aircraft
from as low as $34 an hour for
a light single engine airplane,
to as high as $163 an hour for
a twin engine airplane.
If an individual wants to
give a flight to someone, Long
says a "gift certificate" can be
issued two ways.
One way is to fill out a
credit application, and have
that approved. It takes about a
day and a half. Then, at the
conclusion of the friend's
flight, when he/she is billed, a
gift certificate can be issued
for the specific amount used.
Or, pay in advar..ce based on
the computed total estimated
distance. The certificate will
then be issued for a specific
destination and/ or a certain
amount of standby time.

Holiday gift ideas for the sports fanatic Great choices in loc~
What can you get that
sports fanatic on your gift list
for under $20. Well, here are a
~ew helpful suggestions.
A new sport ball is a sure
hit.
Buy a soccer ball for the
avid soccer player -- prices
range from $10 to $19. A new
volleyball goes for around $10
to $12. For the fast-breaking
slam dunker in the family,
basketball prices range from
$13 to $20.
The tennis player might like
a new set of tennis balls. The
famous high-quality green or
yellow Penn tennis balls go for
as low as $2 and make a great
stocking stuffer. If it's a lowcost racquet you're looking
for, consider an aluminum
tennis racquet priced from $17
to $20, and great for the beginner.
For the person who likes
closed court indoor tennis -commonly called racquetball
-- a graphite racquetball racquet fits into your budget at
$17, while three top quality
Penn Ultra Blue racquetballs

? me, says ~ e se~v1ce as a
differe~t. onenta~IOn th an
other cnsis ph~nes m th e a~ea.
No~dahl believes the Bible
contams answers to most of
life's problems. Based on this
belief, the support and advice
given to callers is usually
Biblically backed. Most of the
verses and quotes used come
from the New Testament, says
Nordahl.
The hotline is set up to help

go for as low as $1 .84. To protect the hands in the heat of
the action, raquetball gloves
(which could double as
baseball hitting gloves) can be
found for between $5 to $7 .50.
For the younger fan, who
dreams of becoming a pro
football player, let him live
out his fantasies with a junior
size leather football. A high
quality Spalding football goes
for $12 to $20. And the best
low-budget gift for a golfer is
a new set of one dozen golf
balls, priced between $8 and
$10.
Another fine indoor sport is
darts. A official high-quality
dartboard sells for a mere $16
to $20.
For the family bodybuilder,
try cast iron dumbbells. Prices
range from $4.50 to $7 a pair.
Vinyl dumbbells go for $4 to
$7, while executive dumbbells
sell for $8 to $13. A solid steel
barbell curl bar is within your
budget at $15 (not including
weights). And to protect the
weight lifter you love, buy him
or her a weight lifter's support
belt for $15 to $18.

For the aerobics fanatic on
your list, an exercise mat
should delight him or her, at a
cost of $8 to $13.
And for the fan who loves
to watch, binoculars are a
good gift for only $18.
Any male sports fan would
love to get the new 1986 Sports
Illustrated Swimsuit Calendar
and it's well worth the $9.95
price each.
Now for the hard-to-buyfor sports fan who has almost
everything. How about
ankle/wrist weights for between $6 to $11, or a sit-up bar
that clamps under a door to
hold feet, also $6 to $11, or a
push-up bar with padded grip
handles to hold hands off the
floor, $6 to $1 l.
For the runner who has
everything, amaze him or her
with a Precise Digital Sportach, which keeps track
of mileage ran, $12 to $15.
I hope these suggestions
have been helpful or spurred
you mind to think of other
possibilities.

people weather broken relationships, and to provide comfort and care for lonely and
depressed people as well as
those who are ''healing from a
poor self image,'' Nordahl
stresses. The hotline also helps
people with guilt and personal
hang-ups, he adds.
Nordahl and other hotline
volunteers feel it is important
"to know God as a personal
friend,'' says Nordahl, and to
trust in Jesus, as well. "Jesus
went the whole distance, and

didn't back down like some
gurus we know of," he asserts
jokingly.
For crisis intervention or
just a friendly ear, call the
hotline at 345-7002.

For those of you who have a
sweet tooth, some of Eugene's
delectable holiday treats can
provide welcome relief from
spending all that money on
other people. Just skimp some
on your little brother's present, or on your mutt,
Ralph's, gift. You'll feel better
right away.
One popular source of treats
is the Metropol Bakery,
located in the 5th Street Public
Market. Among many of their
"Christmas
Delights"
available this year is Casatta a
la Sicliana: A dark chocolate
covered pound cake with ricotta cheese, chopped chocolate,
orange liqueur, and glaceed
fruit between its layers. One
mouth-watering slice costs
about $2.
If you prefer something a
little lighter in texture, try
their toothsome Zucotto
Fiorentino: A dome-shaped
delicacy covered with spirals
of rum whipped cream and
decorated with marzipan
(almond paste) holly. Inside
are two fillings: whipped
cream with chopped dark
chocolate and curacao; and
chocolate whipped cream with
walnuts. The Zucotto goes for
$2.25 a slice.

succulent slightly sugary glaze
at a mere $1. 75 per slice. •
The Euphoria Chocolate
Company advertises "Divine
Decadence for Any Occasion,'' and to satiate your
desire for chocolate you
needn't go further than 6 West
17th Ave.
In addition to the regular
eight flavors of truffles, for
the holidays they're offering a
rum truffle dipped in white
chocolate. All normal sized
truffles sell for $1.60 but you
can relieve a heavier-thanaverage craving with one of
their "Super Truffles," for
only $3.25!
Euphoria employee, Laura
Lardinois, claims ''The
perfect gift for a chocolate
lover would be our hot
chocolate kit which has a bag
of
sweetened
ground
Ghirardelli chocolate and a
rich
chocolate-colored
Euphoria mug, all gift wrapped in red and gold,'' and
costs $7 .55. And of course,
chocolate Santas, bells or croquettes are available in 1/4 lb.
bags with prices beginning at
$1. 75.
The amount of dreamy
foods around this time of year
are uncountable, so go for it.
Treat yourself. You deserve it.
Why not take a day and go
bakery hopping? You can
walk, jog or just roll from
place to place!

Performing Arts, U o.f 0, community present music
by Kristin Soto
For the TORCH

Musicians at LCC, the U of

0, and in the Eugene com-

munity are offering music
lovers a variety of musical
entertainment throughout the
holiday season.
AtLCC
The LCC Performing Arts
Department opened its holiday
season Nov. 26 and Dec. 4
with a Faculty Concert, and a
Harmony and Percussion Performance.
• On Tuesday, Dec. 10, the
Baroque Orchestra, Woodwind Ensemble, and Chamber
Choir will combine for a
special concert in the Blue

CJ OSUre,

from page
"But logistically, things were
already in motion. People
were already starting to arrive
at LCC. ''
And, contrary to speculation, the fact that Turner is
from Connecticut had nothing
to do with the college staying
open. "This (college) is a big

Hoopsters,
He's only 18-years-old, coming from a small school and
has a somewhat limited
background. He has a long
way to go, but he's making
progress every day. We think
he'll be able to help us as the
season progresses.''
Two other freshmen, Jeff
Thomas (6'4" forward from
Springfield) and Jeff Campbell (6-foot guard from Cottage Grove) will red-shirt this
season (will practice with the
team, but won't play in
games). ''They will be working
on their fundamentals, improving their skills and basic
body strength to be ready for

Registration,

open from 9 a.m. until 7 p.m.
Registration for new
students will begin on Tuesday, Jan. 2 from 9 a.m. to 7
p.m.
Late students may register
beginning Monday, Jan. 6
from 8 a.m. to 7 p.m., Tuesday from 9 a.m. to 7 p.m.,
Wednesday and Thursday
from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m., and
Friday from 9 a.m. to 1:30
p.m.
Marshall says students
sometimes worry that, because
they have finals during their
scheduled registration time,
desired classes will close
before they can register. But,
says Marshall, this shouldn't
be a source of apprehension
for students. "Classes rarely
close before Thursday,'' he
points out.
Financial Aid
Some students may be
wondering about Financial
Aid checks for winter term.
Linda Waddell, Financial Aid
director, says that disbursement will be conducted the
same as it was fall term.
Guaranteed Student Loans

Admission is free.
Coached by Barbara
Myrick, the four woodwind
groups will perform short
pieces by Telemann, Sarant,
Bolling, and Quantz, as well as
"Scarborough Fair," an
English folktune.
Directed by Wayte Kirchner, the 12-voice choir will
sing Benjamin Britten's "A
Ceremoney of Carols." They
will be accompanied by harpists Rebecca Hilary Smith

The baroque orchestra, conducted by Nathan Cammack,

down when it's possible to stay
open and provide service for a
number of the people who
want it.''
But last Monday, LCC did
close. By 5:30 a.m., Turner
had the evaluative reports and
made the decision. Tuesday,

day pieces: Pachelbel's
'' Kanon'' and Corelli' s
"Christmas Concerto," Opus
6, No. 8. The ensemble is comprised of ten string players.
• A fourth LCC concert, on
Dec. 12, will feature performances by the LCC Symphonic Band, conducted by
David Coy, and the concert
choir, conducted by Wayte
Kirchner. Among the pieces
the band will play are an arrangement of music from
''The Sting,'' '' A Norwegian
Christmas Overture'' by
Trevor Ford, and an arrangement of the Prelude and Fugue
in G Minor by J.S. Bach. The
choir of 34 voices will perform
a choral revue, featuring 12

popular Christmas songs, arranged by Ed Lojeski. This
work is choreographed.
AttheU ofO
The University of Oregon
offers some free, and some inexpensive music experiences in
the coming weeks.
• The U of O's Faculty Bass
Quintet will perfom 8 p.m.
Dec. 9 at Beall Concert Hall
on the U of O campus.
General admission is $3, but
$1 for students and seniors,
while U of O students are free
with identification.
• The U of O Children's
Choir Holiday Concert will be
held on Dec. 15 at 4 and 8
p.m. in the Beall Concert Hall,
featuring three choirs.

In the Community
In the Eugene community
there are several events planned.
• The Eugene Junior Symphony Association Junior Orchestra Concert is scheduled
for Dec. 10, at 7:30 p.m. at the
Silva Concert Hall at the Hult
Center for the Performing
Arts.
• And the UO Children's
Choir will again sing on Dec.
12, at 12: 15 p.m. at the Silva.
• The Oregon Mozart Player
Concert will take place on
Dec. 14, at 8:30 p.m. at the
Silva Concert Hall.
• • And Showcase: Festive
Brass is slated for Dec. 19, at
12:15 p.m. at the Silva.

conditions had improved, but
crews needed time to clear the
parking lot entrances and
some of the walkways. So he
decided to open the campus at
10 a.m.
"We're fortunate we had
the rain," says Turner. Otherwise we might have been dos-

ed longer.''
Chase says Security records
indicate approximately 3700
of the 8000 students and staff
drive to campus. He thinks
many students may h-ave never
driven in snow or ice before,
and it doesn't usually last long
enough for drivers to get much
practice.
Chase says the biggest problem is driving speed, when

conditions are icy. Too fast
and too slow are the worst
hazards. ''Going at 35 mph is
reasonable. Moves have to be
peanut butter smooth, slow to
stop, and slow to accelerate."
And leaving enough room
between cars helps prevent
pile-ups. Chase recommends a
minimum of seven car-lengths,
adding ''Ideally, it should be
more like 10."

rrompage6-----------next year," explains Bates.
''I think we're going to have
an exciting year. There was a
time last year when we had a
predominately freshman lineup. Now they're all back this
season with a year's experience. I expect us to play
good solid defense. We have
pretty good shooters, and
more quickness than I've had
in a few year's. I think this
team is willing to make a lot of
things happen defensively and
we're going to be able to score
offensively,'' comments Bates
with confidence.
Bates states that if the
freshmen come along, and

give good bench strength, the
team should have an exciting
season and he predicts a finish
of first or second in the
Southern Division of the
NW AACC Region IV.
However, he believes the rest
of the league knows Lane will
be a team to contend with and
considers the Titans to be one
of the favorites to win the division.
'' As we learn to play with
one another, and get to handling the ball better, I think we'll
get open for a lot of nice little
12-15 feet shots. I think it will
be an exciting open game and
a fast team to watch," concludes Bates.
