LANE COMMUNITY COLLEGE 1 VOL.22, N0.2 OCT. 17, 1986 NO, I... ,- 'Early Bird' drivers can avoid traffic rush to LCC by Chuck Perry for the TORCH Glennis Pahlmann A flight over an often-crowded intersection which provides access to LCC shows less traffic than usual. The intersection is considered by some to be potentually dangerous. LCC Alcohol Awareness Week to clear up misconceptions by Kelli J. Ray TORCH Editor Does coffee really sober you up if you're drunk? Or what about a cold shower? These questions and others will be addressed during LCC's Alcohol Awareness Week, Oct. 27-31. National Alcohol Awareness Week is intended to dispell '' common and dangerous myths'' about alcohol, and replace them with factual information, according to a press release from the Will Rogers Institute. National Collegiate Alcohol Awareness week is Oct. 17-25, but according to Sandra Ing, director of Specialized Student Services, LCC will follow a week later so that the college has time to make all the necessary arrangements. ''Hopefully, the publicity from the national week will make people more aware and prepare them for our week,'' she says. Athletic Trainer Janet Anderson says that the college will focus its activities on Wednesday, Oct. 29. Alcohol rehabilitation service providers such as Alcoholics Anonymous, Horizon Recovery Center, and Serenity Lane will be in the center area of the cafeteria from 10:30 to 2 p.m. Representatives will provide information about the services available to students and staff. Sign provides puzzle page 5 During this time period, the Renaissance Room will serve "mocktails" for 50 cents each, "to show that you can have a good time without alcohol,'' says Anderson. A film or video presentation is being scheduled for Wednesday, as well, "probably from Serenity Lane," says Counselor Tim Blood. He adds that the time and place have not yet been worked out. The awareness week activities will attempt to clear up commonly held misconceptions about alcohol. One common myth is that coffee can sober a drunk. But according to the press release, if a person drinks ''one too many,,, then has a cup of coffee and drives, he or ·she is just a wide-awake drunk behind the wheel. The belief that a cold shower can sober a drunk is also a myth -- it only creates a wet drunk. Other tips: • Never drink on an empty stomach. Solid food slows down the alcohol absorbsion rate. • Pace the drinks, to control the amount of alcohol intake. • A void drinking when depressed. Alcohol intensifies the mood of a drinker, so one's mood should be taken into consideration prior to consumption. • Don't drive after drinking. Intoxicated drivers are involved in over 50 percent of all driving fatalities. Bob Foster fills new position If you drive south to LCC between 7:45 a.m. and 8:30 a.m. on Interstate 5, you may confront 25 to 30 cars lining all lane, exit the simultaneously attempting to exit on Mc Vey Road to the college. TORCH photographer Glennis Pahlmann and I accompanied LCC Flight Instructor Pat Holbert on an early morning rendezvous with the daily traffic flow on Tuesday morning, Oct. 14. A low fog cover blanketed the Eugene area before takeoff, but once airborne we were hundreds of feet above the fog, flying southeast into a clear morning sunrise. At 7:45 we flew along the vein of 1-5 traffic to the LCC off-ramp. The flow to the exit was steady, but seemed to move slowly through the stop sign onto McVey Road. Holbert suggested we ''buzz'' around the campus and ·get pictures before the rush of students to early classes brought the most traffic. As we did, we noticed the sparsely filled parking lots. Then, back to I-5 again, we noticed two additional traffic lines forming: On 30th Avenue, across from the Eldon Schafer Drive entrance to LCC, a line of 20 vehicles; and at the McVey Road intersection with the 30th a Avenue/I-5 overp.1ss, 32-car line. Holbert commented: "We (Flight Technology instruc~ors and students) fly th Li area regularly on student training flights and these places are pretty well backed-up a lot of the time." At 8:05, 1-5 was as Holbert described -- 20 cars were backed-up while attempting to enter McVey Road. But it was a relatively low number for the hour, Holbert agreed. The lme lacked 10 cars before it would trail onto the freeway, as it usually does on see Traffic, page 10 Transient alarms cook by Lois Grammon staff writer When she came to work at 5:20 a.m. on Friday, Oct. 10, an unidentified man confronted Food Service fry cook Ann Braun. She says the incident took place after she parked her car in the "horseshoe" lot east of the Machine Technology Building. "I got out of my car, locked the door, started walking down towards the college, and this guy came out of the shrubbery,'' says Braun. "He stood there, and pretty soon he came towards me. So I kind of backed away, said 'what do you want?' But he said nothing and kept walking towards me," Braun says. She ran to her car, drove down to the Center Building, and called Campus Security. Braun says,'' they found him, and told him to get off campus, then led him off to the _ freeway."

I have, let's say, a modest proposal for doing away with these inconviences to society. None of this hanging, firing squad, or beheading stuff is justifiable either because murderers don't deserve such quick, relatively painless treatment. I'd prefer these suckers be tied up and lowered into tubs of corrosive chemicals. No, not powerful acid (too quick) but something that will take' em a while to die in. These chemicals should take several hours to completely burn off the prisoner's skin. But make sure the tub is deep enough so that during the prisoner's struggle, he'll ingest some of the chemicals. This will insure that his lungs and throat will receive intensive burns. If, after a few hours, the subject is still alive, and didn't die of shock or toxemia, then pull him out and leave his burned-up body exposed. After a while he'll die of hypothermia; if not, throw him into an incinerator or use some other method to finish him off. Cruel you say? Unconstitutional? Barbaric? Hardly. The Supreme Court currently says it's okay to kill a baby after the second trimester with a procedure identical to the proposal I've mentioned -- except, instead of a tub of acid, the baby is burned-up with a saline solution while it's still in the womb. If such a practice is good enough to inflict on an innocent baby, it's good enough _for murderers, isn't it? Michael Cross Former LCC Student State options To the Editor Ballot Measure 6 is one of the most controversial of the wide-range of ballot measures facing Oregon voters on Nov. 4. It asks: "Shall the Oregon Constitution be amended to prohibit using state monies to fund abortions except to prevent death of the mother?'' Women with the ability ·to pay for their own medical expenses will not be affected by the passage or defeat of Ballot Measure 6. This proposed constitutional amendment does not attempt to challenge the U.S. Supreme Court's recently reconfirmed decision to keep abortion a safe and legal option. Instead, Ballot Measure 6 is a direct attack on the rights of low-income women who are dependent on the state for their medical care. Oregon law states that, within the limits of available funds, assistance shall be provided to those who are '' categorically or medically needy.'' Eligible women and their children receive funding from the state for all of their medical costs, including reproductive health care. Currently in Oregon, any woman faced with an unplanned pregnancy has the same three options, whether she is dependent on the state for her medical care or not: she can carry the pregnancy to term and keep the child; carry the pregnancy to term and give the child up for adoption; or end the pregnancy with an abortion. This is a complex and emotional decision and one that must be made in accordance with the woman's own personal, religious and moral ·i_::_,,• ,,:: ·, ,-,,, - %'-'·,~.,, ,,,,.'..:',,,,,,~LL J convictions. In the case of dependent medically women, the state now maintains neutrality by paying fully for each of these three options. In fiscal year 1984--85, the State of Oregon paid a total of $10,045,716 for 4,574 public assistance deliveries. This figure represents prenatal care and delivery costs only, at an average cost of $2,195.78. In that same period, the state paid a total of $325,745 for 1,602 public assistance abortions, at an average cost of $202.08. In the 1985-86 fiscal year there were 1,209 state-funded abortions (a reduction by 400 from the previous year) for a total cost of $236,695. Money is clearly not the issue. Ballot Measure 6 represents an ultimately fruitless effort to legislate morality, based on the personal, moral and religious dictates of only one segment of our population. It is , for this reason that Ballot Measure 6 must be defeated. The fact that it is so extreme -- making no exception for rape, incest or a woman's health -- should serve only to heighten our commitment to the defeat of this unjust measure. Ballot number 13: notagoo didea forum by Rob Ward for the TORCH Ballot Measure 13, if passed, would amend the Oregon Constitution and require voter registration 20 days before an election. The sponsors of this measure believe it would alleviate the possibilities of fraud in an election. There has never been a proven vote of fraud in Oregon. Currently, a person may register to vote up to the day before an election. During the last eleven days prior to an election, a person must bring proof of residence. This can be done by bringing in a rent receipt or an envelope with a per• son's new address on it. Every time a person moves, they must re-register to vote. So if anyone moves within 20 days prior to an election, they are simply ineligible to vote. Who are the most mobile people around (besides transients)? Students, of course. We move for many different reasons. Roommate hassels, rent increases, and break-ups are all reasons why a person might have to move. It shouldn't infringe on a person's right to vote. It is estimated that 70,000 people registered to vote during the last ~O days in the Nov. '84 elections. When people move, the last thing they are thinking about is re-registering to vote (except me). Most people aren't reminded until an election draws near that they aren't registered to vote. Should these people be penalized? By no means. Homeowners are about the only people who know where they will be in a few days, weeks, or months. Ballot Measure 13 will take away a basic right of all Americans. Let's stay . democratic. VOTE NO on 13. Drinking_ and driving]. Rationalizations cost too -much by Kelli J. Ray TORCH Editor Most of us drink alcohol. We drink for a number of reasons: to help us relax, to forget the worries of the daily routine, or just to have a good time. After drinking, many of us drive. And that's where the good time ends. According to a pamphlet put out by the Oregon Department of Motor Vehicles, about 30,000 Oregonians are arrested yearly for driving under the influence of intoxicants . For a first offense, the punishment is the suspension of the your driver's license for 90 days IF you agree to take a breath test. If you refuse to take the test your license can be suspended for one year. But that's not half of it. In the US, half of all driving fatalities involve drunk drivers, and one person dies in an alcohol-related traffic accident every 35 minutes. Dry stati;5tics, right? It could never happen to us . We're not going to have an accident, not after just a few drinks. We're careful drivers. Besides, how are we going to get home if we don't drive? We make such rationalizations all the time -- and according to a Mothers Against Drunk Drivers (MADD) brochure, 75 people die daily because of -- rationalizations. The well-known fact is, the more we drink, the more we lose our judgement. An otherwise perfectly safe driver becomes hell on wheels after too much alcohol. And the party turns • into a nightmare . Alcohol doesn't kill people . Cars don't kill people. People -- just like us -- kill people. If each of us were to make alternate transportation arrangements prior to drinking, 27,500 lives per year would be saved. Sure, it takes a little more time and thought. But it's a good idea. It may save a life -- and it could be yours.

The TORCH October 17, 1986 Page 3 World peace starts at home forum by Ron Robbins for the TORCH Current events seem to tell us only our leaders can shape the path to world peace; that the world is too big, too complicated, to be affected by us ordinary people. As your student representatives, we ASLCC Senators and officers believe ''World Peace begins at home.'' Peace is not like some sack of groceries brought home from afar. Peace is not something created somewhere else and trucked in like fresh fish. Peace begins within each of us when we are willing to trust the people around us. Peace begins when we can take the time to listen, work to prevent misunderstandings, and care about the people we come in contact with. And all that takes effort. It's easier to just think of yourself, to divide the world into those you care about and the rest of the world. Besides, it's not as if you don't care about the rest of the world, it's just that ''What can you do about problems in Africa or India?'' Imagine this: at first you don't care one way or another about some people. Then, because they are different than you, you dislike them. Next, you cut them out of your circle of friends. This is the way peace ends. Ultimately your country and theirs go to war, each side believing they are right, that they are sure to win. So we wait for victory. We wait for someone else to bring us peace as if we are incapable of creating peace in our daily lives. The ASLCC would like to suggest a radical idea. World Peace begins at home. An advantage to this view of world peace is that it makes the part of the world you are closest to a better place, a more understanding, more humane place to live in. Rather than having someone else's idea of peace brought home from Iceland or Geneva; we believe peace is something you create. When you put out the effort to create or keep good feelings between you and those you are close to--that' s working for peace. As you distrust people conjure up evil intent you make your world a colder place to live in. The next time someone ignores you or treats you like a thing, and you are ready to tell them about it, remember, World Peace begins at home. It will always be easier to strike back or to get even. It will always be easier to wait for someone else to make peace, to wait for world leaders to solve our problems for us. But it isn't very likely to happen. With our daily actions, we craft either a world of peace and honesty and trust, ·o r a world of apathy, mistrust, and suspicion. WORLD PEACE BEGINS AT HOME. Hunger, frompage2 though a second copy of the questionnaire was personally delivered to his campaign manager. It concerns us that, with the election only six weeks off, no specific platform was available on hunger or any other substantive issue, at Long's Eugene office (9/23/86). Three inSenator to quiries Packwood's office also elicited no response. The Fourth Congressional District has been fortunate to have been represented by two people who have made hunger issues one of their priorities, Senator Hatfield and Representative Weaver. Timely responses by Bauman and DeFazio suggest that these candidates will continue this concern. We are pleased by DeFazio' s and forthright Bauman' s responses regarding their position on the significant issue of hunger. Dorothy Sistrom And six co-signers Clean writing To the Editor, I'm glad to hear that journalism is being taken to new heights. Not only has the Backstage Torch avoided muckraking, we are now being instructed to wash our hands after visiting the bathroom. Bravo! It's about time the paper was concerned with our bodies as well as our minds. In line with your survey on how many people wash their hands after visiting the bathroom I would like to make a modest proposal. First, hand washing should be mandatory for all students, staff, and visitors who use the LCC bathrooms. Signs should be posted above all urinals and on the inside door of all stalls. SecondJy, alarm systems should be installed in the entrance ways leading out of the bathrooms. Any hands which are placed on door handles would immediately be scanned for possible germs. (I'm sure the wise folks in the science departdesign could ment something.) If the bathroom user is found guilty of violating basic hygiene rules they would immediately be sprayed on the back of the hand with indelible brown paint. That should teach them to clean up their act! Keep up the good work. Phil Shea LCC student Dancews~~:ii:heatrical " COME AS YOU AREN'T" t l STUDENTS!

Siporin, 37, has lived in Eugene for the past sixteen years. Four years ago he attended LCC with no intentions of getting involved with radio broadcasting. But '' everyone told me I was a natural, so I looked at my options and thought I'd give it a shot." Accordingly, Siporin started at KLCC as a volunteer, and six months later he took on a full time job. He draws a line between "book room learning," and actually "getting in- valved,'' and after four years of broadcasting, Siporin thinks that the opportunity to actually get involved is worth more than financial gains. ''The money that I would be getting by going into commercialism would be greater,'' he says, ''but that's not as important to me as being able to express my topics in depth, instead of just skimming over things.'' Besides winning five awards from Sigma Delta Chi, the National Society for Professional Journalists, one of the most important influences in Siporin' s career was a trip to Nicaragua. "That's when I decided I wanted to be a reporter and maybe travel. I didn't want a desk job." Siporin likes broadcasting interviews and political news the most. "I like learning from what I do," he says, "I've surpris• ed myself .. .! did an interview on a piano tuner, and I knew nothing whatsoever about the subject." As well as broad~asting, he also teaches a course on Audio Production and freelancing national public radio at LCC. If Siporin had to pick another profession, he says he would work on a massive project, like a novel. Another choice: changing the planet. "I would like to make the news, rather than just reporting it," he says. ASLCC cites record gain by Robert Wolfe last year. A new facet designed to collect pop cans is being planned, and is expected to produce even more income, Jordan added. Jordan and his assistants, Mick Spencer, Mike Taylor, and Dave McElheny have spent the summer ouverhauling the entire porgram. All 52 recycling barrels are receiving 'Titan blue-and-white' paint jobs, and signs explaining the uses of collected money are being placed nearby. Five different types of paper are collected, including white bond, colored paper, computer paper, newsprint, and computer newsprint. Workers dump collected paper into seperate dumpsters behind the cafeteria kitchen. Once full, they are transported to Northwest Resources, a recycling company in Santa Clara. TORCH Staff Writer Zach Nathan Alan Siporin, KLCC Blue Plate Host, had no intentions of being a radio talk show host, but everyone told him he was a natural. Record revenues are predicted this year for the ASLCC recycling program due to greater participation, a new organization, and higher visibiljty, according to Recycling Coordinator Victor Jordan. ''The efficiency of the operation and participation by the departments should result in more income than ever before," says Jor:dan. Summer term receipts were an all-time high of $161, according to Jordan. Money generated by the project is used to fund cultural events and other student government projects. Jordan credits increased departmental participation for most of the rise in receipts. This year, 87 percent of all departments are participating in recycling, an increase of 40 percent over Transient, from page 1 • Rock • Jazz . • Classical ci°'<l.J ~~~<.~ \.J•2,> .

The FTE is a measurement of one student enrolled fulltime, or the equivalent -- two students at half-time, ot a combination equal to a fulltime credit load. State funding is allocated on the basis of $1,468 for each of the first 1, 100 fulltime equivalent students, and $1,114 for each additional student, (up to a state assigned maximum). The FTE is probably the most important figure in determining cutbacks or expansion in services that the college is able to provide. The college estimates a leveling off of the nosedive in FTE enrollment, (dropping ·&om 9512 FTE in 1981-82 to 7816 in 1985-86). Jacqueline Belcher, vice president for the Office of Instruction, predicts ''There would be another year of leveling-out and then a slow rise.'' As part of her office's effort to reverse the decline in the student population, Belcher is working with her Instructional Cabinet, consisting of the 18 instructional department heads and the 3 deans for instructional areas. This cabinet is currently looking at employment and educational trends, and ways to serve sttrdents. The cabinet is also examining the current needs of the evening program and whether to expand its offerings. Asked whether she thought that cutbacks in federal student aid could impact anticipated FTE levels, Belcher noted that this was an obvious concern ''because students need the aid,'' but that lobbying through Lane Community College's association with the American Association of Community and Junior Colleges will let legislators know that the need is there.

This is the first time in its history that the award has been given to a team rather than an individual. The staff of KLCC, broadcasting from its studios in the Forum Building, have been recognized for '' unique service and contribution to the college above and beyond the expected standard,'' states the award. Named on the award are: Stephen Barton, chief engineer; Kris Fox, traffic and continuity; Don Hein, news director; Michael Canning, music and operations director; Evelyn Lee, office manager; and Paula Chan Gallagher, development director. ''While only six people are named on the award,'' says Jon Schwartz, station Future buildin g site? Zach Nathan manager, '' there are 70 people working here who helped earn it. The six named are in charge of specific areas and the people working in those areas. Each area is important to the others and I really believe that everyone together earned the award-. It was a team effort. 11 exemplifies "KLCC enlightened management,'' says Station Advisor and Consultant Jim Dunne. "They're first rate people who know their job and love what they do. As a result the work gets done and the community supports them.'' Over 70 people make up the KLCC work force. Five full-timers and eight parttimers are paid employees, and the balance is comprised students, CWE of work/study students, and community volunteers. They all work at keeping KLCC the fifth most popular public radio station in the US, and the number-one jazz station in terms of impact for its coverage area. ''We also won first place nationally -- for the second year in a row -- for excellence in advertising and promotion from the Corporation of Public Broadcasting,'' says Schwartz. ''This is all pretty impressive when you realize that not only do we have to maintain a high quality service (in order to win these awards) but at the same time we must work at providing 70 percent of our budget. 11 When KLCC was founded in 1967 (then known by the call letters of KPNW) it originally received 90 percent of it's funding from LCC. Now the station receives only 10 percent from LCC, and petitions for another 20 percent from the Corporation for Public Broadcasting. It must raise the remaining 70 percent through listener pledges and business program underwriting. Dunne feels that the station provides an important service to the community through its programming, and as a result receives strong community support. ''The collection rate of pledges made to the station is as high or higher than the collection rate of property taxes. That means more people are paying their pledges than taxes. "This station is truly about diversity. We receive support from doctors, lawyers, Donuts," says Dunkin Dunne. "I've even had people drive up on campus in big semi-trucks, leave the motor running, jump out and say, 'I've heard you on the radio. You need money? Here!' That's community support.'' the of area The ''community'' served by the 86,000 watt station extends from the outskirts of Portland (and even up into White Salmon, WA) in the north, Prineville to the east, south fo Cave Juction and along the coast from Coos Bay to Lincoln. KLCC is the only member of National Public Radio in Eugene, and also has the single strongest transmitter in the state.

According to Bill Berry, vice president for Administrative Services, plans to build started about five years ago, when the enrollment at LCC was about 2,000 students more than it is now. There was a tremendous need for more classrooms and the board agreed the school should fill that need. The space between the Science and Forum Buildings was chosen because the tunnel system at Lane, which connects all the buildings to the utilities, has what is called a stub at that site. The stub makes it possible for a building constructed there to be connected to the utilities The original plan was to have a six-classroom building constructed for general use. when the Unfortunately, construction companies submitted their bids, the lowest was approximately 130 percent more than the school had estimated. As the next academic year started and admissions declined, so did the pressure for the new structure, and it was decided that the school should accommodate the requirements for additional classroom space other ways. College money, however, has already been spent. The amount set aside for designs and miscellaneous work before construction of the building was $44,000. The school spent $38,608 on an architectural engineering design. An allocation of $3,300 was set aside for investigating the site, and $3,042 was went to excavation, bringing the total spent to approximately $50,000. . • □ Complete eye exams featuring compu- terized state-of-the-art equipment. □ □ Specializing in contact lenses including tinted, bifocals, extended-wear and lenses for people with astigmatism.

The $50 allocated by the Senate will be used to buy a new kicking bag, and to fund a trip to Portland to see a Japanese Karate master, club members told the student government.representatives. Interested persons can contact Dave DeHart at 688-0743. • The American Indian Club was formed to ''Encorage and inform native peoples of the importance of developing skills and knowledge which may be applied for the benefit of native communities on campus," according to club memeber Regina Dumont. Interested persons can cont_act the club through the Multi-Cultural Center. . In other business, the Senate voted to allocate $275 to the English and Foriegn Language Department for a Spanish language film. It would be a "terrific cultural and linguistic source,'' for Spanish-speaking students, Instructor Liz Hall told the senators. Spanish language classes enrolled 187 students this term, she says. The Student Senate also heard a presentation regarding the upcoming economic impact survey. (see story, page 7).

Paulus, Republican candidate for the Oregon governer' s seat in the upcoming elections, visited the LCC campus on Oct. 10 for over an hour, meeting with administrators and receiving presentations from staff members before spending 40 minutes answering questions for a public audience of about 60 people in the Performing Arts Building. Other topics included drug testing of student athletes and public employees, the future of old growth timber, and the need for new jails. Paulus spoke at length on educational funding, saying passage of Ballot Measure 9 would create "serious" problems for schools, particularly grades K-12. She also stated that polls show Ballot Measure 7 has '' no chance at all'' to pass in the November elections. Ballot Measure 9 would limit property taxes to 2 percent of assesed value for the first year, and 1.5 percent thereafter. Ballot Measure 7 seeks to implement a five percent sales tax on some goods, to finance schools, and a 1.5 percent property tax limit. Property taxes are the major source of funding for public schools in Oregon. Old growth forest and the wood products industry also received attention. Paulus has faith that the industry could regain its economic strength, declaring '' Oregon grows trees better than anywhere in the world.'' But she also said ''It will take the wisdom of Solomon and great integrity," to balance the needs of the industry with environmental concerns. Informed of LCC' s proposed mandatory drug testing for student athletes, Paulus spoke out against drug testing of athletes and government employees. She suggested athletes sign a voluntary pledge of non-use. Referring to testing in private industry, she commented "It's none of my business." Citing a '' frightening trend'' of citizens buying personal weapons and guard dogs for protection, she claimed taxpayers are unwilling to give the government enough money to handle the problem of jail cell shortages. Saying "We need more secure jail space," and "hard beds," Paulus promoted a plan to privitize jail services, claiming it would reduce expenses by 35 percent. She also proposed regional parole boards, giving communities control of locally convicted criminals.

There is the steady hum of an electric sub station, as well as the roar of street noise -- and would you believe a plane flying overhead? Yes, it's true. I was straining to hear the direction of a deer that was bouncing away, when every sound in the ecosystem was drowned out by a twin-engine plane. And people with their pet llamas roaming on "happy hunting grounds" pose a problem, too, especially when the llama is the same color a_deer is. People and their All Terrain Vehicles (ATVs) have also complicated matters. I've often contemplated taking target practice on people who are ruining roads, and for all practical purposes trespassing on private property. Luckily for the ATVers, my senses take over. As long as there are deer on the earth there will be hunters. And I suppose that even when hightech takes over, and lazer rifles are the standard hunting weapon, hunters will have to strain to hear over the sounds ofhover-craft and transport beams. fering free drop-in playtime hours for pre-school children and their parents, 9 a.m. till noon, Tuesdays and Thursdays for the month of Oct. and until Nov. 25.

But that is before she wakes up as a 17-year-old in 1960, with her 42 years of experience intact. Kathleen Turner stars as time-traveler Peggy Sue Keleher in the long awaited ''Peggy Sue Got Married,'' directed by Francis Coppola and produced by Paul Gurion. There are obvious parallels between this movie and last year's blockbuster ''Back to the Future." However, the tight plotting of "Future" is played to-the-hilt for laughs, and "Peggy Sue" has at times a touch of the twilight zone. And characters in "Future" attempt to recreate events so that the future can remain unchanged, while Turner's character determines to keep from repeating her mistakes. Reliving her life brings some unexpected dilemmas to Peggy Sue, the most troublesome being her relationship with her then-high school sweetheart Charlie, played by Nicholas Cage. Cage's overacting makes "Crazy Charlie" have an almost cartoon-like quality, and he is never convincing. As the teenaged crooner, his suaveness is just silly, and his middleaged-bumbling-appliance- salesman-andrepentant-husband falls flat. At the reunion Peggy and Charlie are on the verge of divorce, and when she lands back in 1960, Peggy Sue sees a chance to escape being married to the guy. As a middle-aged woman trying to live the life of a teenager, Turner's finesse keeps the sometimes touching moments from sliding into sentimentality. One day Peggy Sue picks up the phone and is overcome with emotion when she hears the voice of her grandmother who was long dead in 1985. Then, when she sees her little sister as the preteen she once was, she tells her "I want us to be closer. I have too many unresolved relationships." Little Nancy responds, "teenagers are weird." People all around Peggy Sue are puzzled by the changes they see, and she herself is frustrated at times by the challenge of facing her life as it once was. Yet she relishes the opportunity. In one comical scene, she belts out a fervent rendition of "My Country 'Tis of Thee, startling her classmates as they sing a more subdued version. Contrasts between the cultures and slang of 1960 and 1985 are ever-present, ranging from fun to hilarious. Peggy Sue erupts in laughter when her father buys an Edsel, and on one occasion when he grounds her, she tells him, "I'm an adult, I want to have fun. I'm going to Liverpool to discover the Beatles. Photographers create a romantic and nostalgic mood, and a surreal, dreamlike quality dominates the scenes, intensifying the _sensation of traveling through a timewarp. The screenplay for "Peggy Sue" was written in 1983, long before "Back to the Future" was released, but production problems caused several delays. Directors Penny Marshall and Jonathan Demme defected, as did Debra Winger, originally cast as Peggy Sue. The usually sizzling Turner is wonderful as the bemused woman caught in her past, and her performance alone makes it worthwhile. The movie's deficiencies are not major enough to keep it from being one of most refreshing movies of this year. And maybe Peggy Sue will get married Peggy Sue (Kathleen Turner), wearing her original prom after all. gown, is crowned queen of her 25th reunion. 11 11 A week"S potpour ri of drama, music, and art compiled by Lois Grammon TORCH Entertainment Editor October 17-18 "Strange Encounters," two one-act comedies about love, will play at Napoleon's Deli, 650 Main St., at 8 p.m. October 18-November 13 Gallery Zone New presents ''Prints Now: Northwest Print Council.''
