"The written word passeth on the torch of wisdom"

Ralph Abernathy to speak at King celebration
by Diane Davis
TORCH Editor

The Rev. Ralph David Abernathy will be the keynote speaker
for LCC's Martin Luther King, Jr. Commemoration on Jan. 15,
1988.
Abernathy and King were co-founders of the Southern-Christian Leadership Conference (SCLC) in 1957, and Abernathy
served as its president. He first became a close friend with the
late civil rights leader while they were both in their twenties.
From that time forward Abernathy was side-by-side with King in
fighting for equal rights for America's blacks. Abernathy was
also at King's side when the civil rights leader was assassinated
on April 4, 1968, in Memphis.
Some of the more publicized results of Abernathy and King's
activities during the 1950s and '-60s were the integration of
schools, restaurants, and buses in the South; the passage of the
Civil Rights Act of 1964, and the Voting Rights Act of 1965.
On Nov. 25 ASLCC Cultural Director Rico Perez received
confirmation of Abernathy's participation in the campus observance of Rev. King's birthday, Jan. 15.
"Throughout the city (of Eugene) the Martin Luther King
observance is growing. We (the ASLCC) thought a direct link to
Martin Luther King would be the most effective way of informing the public, and of observing Dr. King's birthday. We are forsee Abe nathy page 3

Women's cross country wins NWAA CC title
by J.V. Bolkan

TORCH Sports Editor

The LCC women's cross
country team streaked to a
first place tie with host
Spokane in the Northwest
Athletic Association of Community Colleges (NWAACC)
Championship on Nov. 13.
"It was a battle. A real exciting race. I really feel good
about this championship.
Everything we got, we worked
for," says Coach Lyndell
Wilken.
Spokane entered the meet as
the overwhelming favorites,
having trampled LCC by 30
points five weeks ago.
"At first it (the tie) was a
letdown, then we realized we
shouldn't have even gotten
that," says LCC's Laura
Pieratt, who finished fifth
overall. ''Our positive attitude
is what made the difference.''
Spokane's Kari McKay and
Orinne Goldberg finished first

and second, respectively. But
the consistency of the Titans
was reflected in the results.
Lisa Moe finished in fourth
place with a time of 19:37,
follow,ed by teammates
Taunya Pieratt in fifth, 19:47,
Nicole Lightcap in sixth,
19:48, and Laura Loren in
seventh, 19:50. Shelli Gray
rounded out the Titan scoring,

finishing in 11th place at
20:09. LCC's Jennifer Huff
finished 12th with a time of
20:11.
Loren crossed the finish line
a half-second in front of
Spokane's Heather Maple.
According to Pieratt, that
''was the difference between
losing and getting a tie.''
_Wilken concurred, stating

that "Loren ran a tremendous
race, performing beyond any
expectations.''
Loren admits to providing
the pivotal points, but is reluctant to take personal credit for
inspiring her teammates.
''Everyone is going through
the same thing out there. It's a
lot easier when teammates are
there to help.''
Loren claims that concentration was the key to her performance, describing her near
trance-like state during the
race.
''You hear your own
breathing and that of other
runners. You can tell how
tired they are by the way they
breath. You can tell who you
can pass, and who you can't.
Sometimes I would hear a
word that somebody would
yell. I've never been as focused
as this."
Loren trailed the leading

LCC's NWAACC women's track team.

Eligibility for aid
altered by new law
by Robert Ward
TORCH Associate Editor

Because of amendments
Congress included in the
Reauthorization of Higher
Education Act of 1986, beginning Summer Term 1988
LCC' s financial aid office can
no longer consider costs incurred for supporting dependents
when calculating financial aid
eligibility.
According to Financial Aid
Director Linda Waddell, only
expenses for the applicant will
be included.
And, she • continues,
"Financial aid eligibility for
students will be based on their
income from the prior calendar year."
Students who had an outside job the preceeding year
could receive less funding even
. if they don't plan to continue
working.

LCC: A step on the UJdderof life
Forum by Terese Lutz
LCC Student

Sometimes I ask myself, "Where am I going?
Why am I here? What am I going to do with
myself?''
Well, do you know what I'm doing? I am
taking a good step. Not the kind of step defined
by Architectural Graphic Standards which
states: '' A good step is twice the rise plus the
run equals twenty-five inches." But, I am performing an action in order to achieve a goal.
My goal is to graduate from Lane Community
College.
Lane Community College is nestled against a
hill-side and designed with multi-level architecture. Because of this there are many steps on
campus which serve as a rest for the foot in
climbing up or down. Do you suppose the architect did this on purpose? Do you think that
he could have known that I would end up here
and relate the steps at Lane Community College
to the steps in my life?
One evening I stopped in at the bottom floor
of the Center Building to buy a soda before
class started. I had to hurry because my class,
four flights up, was about to start. The weather
was sunny and hot, and I was packing a bag full

of books. I started running up the stairs but
quickly slowed down when I broke out in a
sweat and ran out of breath. I didn't think I
was going to make it to the top floor. But then I
stopped and thought to myself, "One step at a
time. You can do it, one step at a time.'' In
fact, that is exactly what I did. I made it to the
top of the stairs one step at a time, and I plan to
work for my diploma the same way.
A step has a beginning and an end. The
period of time that it takes to accomplish a step
can be difficult and trying. For example, a
small child learning to walk will struggle to get
into a standing position, then totter and wobble
while summoning up the courage to raise up
one foot and place it in front of the other one.
Similarly, making the decision to give up a fulltime job in order to attend school and change
careers can be equally difficult and trying.
I am sure you have heard the saying, ''The
first step is always the hardest.'' Indeed, this is
true. It requires great effort to take the first
step. Once the first step has been taken, goals
can be reached and dreams can be realized. I
believe I will make my own definition of a good
step; twice the effort plus the courage equals
goals accomplished, satisfaction and happiness.

NotO-KKK
Dear Editor:
Last month I was studying
in the library when nature called. As I entered the stall in the
second-floor
library's
bathroom, I began to read the
graffiti. We all do it. After all,
what else is there to do?
As I read I nearly became
sick. Phrases like "long live
the South and her ways KKK" and "No Niggers
Allowed,'' were all over the
walls.
I could not believe how offensive this graffiti was. The
words "nigger" and "KKK"
were in at least 10-15 places in
this one stall. As I began to get
angrier and angrier, I thought,
"Hey, wait a minute.
Somebody who works for
LCC, whether it be a janitor
or a teacher, or whomever will
notice this and take care of
it." I was wrong.
As of Monday, Nov. 30,

We must wake·up to live King's dream
by Diane Davis

TORCH Editor

Next year, 1988, we will
observe the twentieth anniversary of the assassination of
Martin Luther King, Jr.
Twenty years ago, on April
4, 1968, a man who refused to
hate whites -- and had every
reason to -- who devoted his
life to finding the solution to
the injustices America had
heaped upon its black citizens,
was shot down on the balcony
of the Lorraine Motel in Memphis. He was a man who had
dignity and believed in nonviolent direct action and love
for your fellow man (no matter what the color), yet he was
a victim of violence.
Dr. King believed that
pacifism was the silent acceptance of evil and that
America's blacks could no
longer silently accept the unjust treatment of unequal
housing, segregated buses and
schools, poll taxes a~d
physical threats to ·prevent
them from voting. Yet, he
believed that it was better to
have violence inflicted on
oneself than to be the inflictor,
and once said ''the aftermath
of nonviolence is the creation
of the beloved community,
while the aftermath of
violence is tragic bitterness."
But that was 20 years ago.
Who cares? Things aren't like
that anymore. Right?
This past summer a law enforcement officer from Idaho
warned Eugene police officers
that leaders of the extremist
Aryan Nation want to claim
Oregon, Idaho, Washington,
Montana and Wyoming for
their nationalized homeland.

Yet, with the new year the
reality sinks in. For the most
part we are an apathetic lot,
unconcerned with anything
more than punching the time

earning that extra buck.

During 1988, we should
carefully consider the impact
of the anniversary of Dr.
King's assassination. Did this
man labor in vain, only to
have America overrun 20 years

later by the same hate and
violence he worked so
desperately -- through love
and non-violence -- to rid from
the country?
Is there really nothing we
can do to prevent prejudice
and hatred? We have to look
no further than the residents
of Coos Bay, OR to answer
that question. When threatened with the presence of the
retiring Grand Dragon of the
KKK, the community banded
together in a united effort and
said "No, we don't want that
kind of influence in our
town."
America as a nation should
decry the influence of prejudice and racism by divesting
itself of all holdings in South
Africa. Why do we, as a nation, accept the inhumane
treatment of blacks in that
country? Why don't we denounce the prejudice in South
Africa in the same way we denounce terrorists or communists?
As individuals we should
eradicate racial slurs, whether
on bathroom walls, posted on
tavern billboards, in our
speech, or in our jokes.
But, most importantly, we
should teach our children that
a person's value is not determined by the color of his or
her skin.
The America of the eighties
should be proud to proclaim
that it truly has freedom and
justice for all. We should not,
still, be fighting for recognition and equality because our
skin is a different color.
We no longer have Dr. King
here to fight against the injustices present in today's
world. Without his voice, are
we immobile? No. Let's begin
today to continue King's fight
against prejudice and racism.

the ugliness was still there.
Now, either the LCC administration is a group of
apathetic unfeeling cretins
who do not want to squeeze $5
out of the budget for brown
paint to cover up this offensive
garbage, or they wholeheartedly agree with what is
written and want it to remain
on their walls as a statement of
their beliefs.
If LCC does not do
something to repair this indecency then they are as guilty
as the mindless creatures who
created it.

Hof line for Financial Aid

A toll-free hot line for students with questions about
federal financial aid programs has been reinstated, four
years after the Reagan Administration discontinued the
service as a budget-cutting measure.
The service was re-authorized last year as part of the
Higher Education Amendments.
The Reagan Administration estimated the cost of
establishing the toll-free number to be between $800,000
and $1 million per year.
Sen. Claiborn Pell, D-RI, said the hot line was well
worth the money if it helps deserving students get the
financial aid they will need to attend college.
Pell said the operators could give information about
federal aid programs and help students with questions
about applications.
Students with questions can call, toll-free, (800)
333-4636, Monday through Friday, from 6 a.m. to 2:30
p.m., PST.
College Enrollment to Stabilize

College enrollment will be relatively stable over the next
four years, according to projections by the US Dept. of
Education.
Total enro'ilment topped 12 million throughout the
1980s and peaked at 12.46 million in 1983.
This fall some 12.3 million students are attending college, according to the department's Center for Education
Statistics.
While the size of the 18-24 year-old student population
will drop seven percent from 1987-1991, enrollment in
higher education is projected to decline only 0.8 percent
over the same period. This is due to a slight increase in the
proportion of high-school graduates who enter college,
and because of increased enrollment of older and part-time
students.
During the next four years, the Department of Education's Center for Education Statistics expects:
• The number of full-time students to drop 3.3 percent,
while the number of part-time students will rise 2.5 percent.
• Undergraduate enrollment will fall 1.2 percent, while
graduate enrollment will rise 2.1 perc~nt.
• Enrollments at four-year colleges and two-year colleges
will decline 0.8 and 0.9 percent, respectively.
Accre(Jitation Agency Questioned

The American Assembly of Collegiate Schools of
Business (AACSB) may not be meeting federal standards
for accrediting agencies, and an Education Department advisory panel has put off a vote on whether to renew the
agency's status.
The action came after several community college leaders
told the advisory panel that the business group had made it
too difficult for students to transfer to four-year institutions.
While the advisory panel's action had little practical effect, it was viewed as a serious attempt to make the
business-schools group more aware that some of its
policies are highly controversial and might need revision.
The harshest attack on the business-schools group cam,
from the American Association of Community and Junior
Colleges (AACAJC). It charged that the AACSB had such
inflexible requirements for accreditation that many community college students had been unable to earn credit for
more than a handful of courses when they transferred to
four-year business programs.
It also claimed that many community college students
had to enroll in courses very similar to ones they had passed while at th·e two-year schools. These standards particularly harmed older student who do not have the time or
the resources to repeat courses.
The Secretary of Education maintains a list of accrediting bodies he has approved. Institutions must be accredited by an organization on that list to be eligible to
receive money from the Education Department.

Telephone registration upgraded
by Norman Gravem
for the TORCH

When students begin phoning-in their class
requests on Dec. 14, they should experience
fewer problems with the "Classline"
Telephone/Computer registration system than
they encountered during Fall Term.
In four meetings this term with department
secretaries and administrative assistants, Admissions Director Bob Marshall and Computer
Services Director Jim Kiezur have tried to
devise solutions to procedural problems created
• by the new system.
In a series of articles in the Nov. 23 TORCH
on Classline registration, one of the main complaints was that students did not receive a paper
copy of their class scht:dule. Marshall says
''There's a slight possibility'' that paper copies
will be available as early as January.
Most -- although not all -- of the other problems have been corrected, says Admissions
Office Supervisor Sharon Moore. She says

Aid,

students can expect the following changes when
they register for classes beginning Dec. 14.
• • The computer will have eight additional
phone lines -- 24 total instead of the 16 of Fall
Term.
• The college will provide a new telephone
registration worksheet to make registering
easier.
• The computer will _" know" about prerequisites for any given class.
• The computer will "tell" the registering student if a desired class has been cancelled.
• A student will now be permitted to
withdraw from school at any time during the
first three weeks of the term without obtaining
the signature of a counselor.
As far as the computer itself, Moore says ''it
overloaded the second day (of Fall Term), but
there haven't been any problems since." She,
Marshall, and Keizer expect better service for
students on one end of the phone, and more efficiency from the computer at the other end.

from page] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ __

Congressional Methodology, a new system mandated
by the federal government to
determine students' financial
aid eligibility, is the cause for
•
these new regulations.
According to Waddell, Congress wanted more predictability in the system (of determining financial aid eligibility)
usually delegated to the
Department of Education.
Congress felt that the
Department of Education was
making too many interpretations in predicting financial
aid eligibility for students.
In the past, says Waddell,

Letters,

students applying for financial
aid were asked to project their
income for the upcoming year
and then report any actual
changes to their school financial aid office. But Congress
claimed that students weren't
reporting those changes.
As a result of this legislation, Waddell says the college
is particularly concerned
about the 415 single parents
receiving financial aid at LCC.
"We can still allow for child
care costs,'' she says, but
students with dependents will
probably have to rely on
welfare, other agencies, or

students. Veterans who have
had their checks withheld by
the Financial Services Office
may apply to the office for a
refund. The refund decision

basis.

As of Nov. 3, 1987, this information has not been
published by the Financial Services Office, however, the
Veterans' Office on campus
has been answering questions
from those veterans who ask.
This information was to

Fina&week
procedures
by Robert Ward

TORCH Associate Editor

Final Exam Week of each
term can be a trying time for
students. But there are certain
procedures and policies set up
by the college to insure that
students aren't presented with
any surprises, and to protect a
student's rights.
The official procedures for
exam week are as follows:
• Final exam week is always
the last week of the term. Final
exams are not to be given prior
to that week. Exceptions must
be cleared through the department head.
• The normal time allowed
for a final exam is one hour
and 50 minutes.
• An instructor does not
• have the option of changing
the final exam time, or room,
for any course.
• Students having more than
two exams in one day may request a rescheduling of one ex3,m. This must be done prior to
the date scheduled for the
final. Students should see instructors to make this arrangement.
If a student experiences any
difficulties with any of these
procedures and is unable to
achieve satisfaction from an
instructor, he/ she should contact the appropriate department head for that course.

Feds require college drug abuse prevention plan
by J.V. Bolkan

TORCH Sports Editor

LCC must provide a
substance abuse prevention
program, or face federal funding withdraw!.
Student Health Director
Sandra Ing claims that while
the government provides no
money for the new program, it
will discontinue financial aid
grants if such a program is not
implemented.
"It is a pretty big stick they
wield. Fortunately, they
haven't set any guidelines. We
could probably get away with
simply putting a few posters
up." But she says while the US
government isn't asking much,
LCC will attempt to provide
more.
To begin, Ing hopes to form
a committee, hopefully
leading to a task force, which
could tackle the problem.
"That way we can spread the
work around," explains Ing.
Although demographics
suggest that a serious drug and
alchohol abuse problem exists
at LCC, Ing thinks the problem is more easily hidden at a
commuter school than on a
dorm-based campus.

John Gieber, a former LCC
student who now teaches
classes for substance abuse
counselors at Portland Community College, agrees that
LCC has a substance abuse
problem.
"Eugene has a huge problem with methamphetamines.
The chemicals are very toxic.
They are very destructive -that drug messes people up
badly," says Gieber.
methamAlthough
phetamines are terribly
destructive, there is a bigger
threat from a more pervasive
drug. In Gieber's opinion, the
drug causing the most destruction in society is alchohol, and
tobacco is a close second.
Gieber claims that figures
from the 1985 World Health
Report show between three
and five times as many deaths
are alchohol-related as opposed to deaths from illegal
drugs.
Gieber says that well over $1
billion dollars are spent annually on the advertising of
alchohol. And he complains
that much of the current focus
on drug abuse is a "cop-out."
As long as we pretend that the

LCC's substance abuse program will offer alternatives to drugs.

killer drugs are all right,
''most abuse prevention programs are doomed to fail
because they are based on
lies."

Rolfing techniques relieve
n1uscle and bone tension
by Brian Frishman

TORCH Staff Writer

When Steve Hargreaves studies he doesn't get a headache, or
a painful, tense neck anymore. Not since he discovered a form
of body restructuring called Rolfing.
"Since I went through the Rolfing series I have more energy,
I'm less tired, and I don't have to endure the chronic pain that
hours of studying over a long period of time can cause'' says
Hargreaves, a U of O student.
Many of the common physical problems associated with studying, with using a computer, or with working at a desk job can
be relieved by Rolfing, say Hargreaves and other advocates of
the method.
In Rolfing a therapist manipulates fascia, the soft tissue that
surrounds muscles and bones, so the body can return to its proper structure.
We've all seen fascia. It's the thin white membrane that surrounds chicken meat.
According to Rolfing specialists, in cases of chronic tension,
like the often bent and sore necks of students, the vertebrae are
bent and misaligned so the muscles in the neck and upper back
must support the neck, instead of the vertebrae doing the job.
When this happens the fascia hardens and takes on the inelastic
qualities of bone. The muscles then become constricted as the
fascia restructures itself to give added support to the muscle.
"Fortunately, by applying pressure and manipulating tissue,
the fascia becomes more soluble,'' says Karen Lackritz, a Rolfer
from Eugene. "It seemingly melts, and then it will form a new
pattern, actually a new mesh work." Ida Rolf, who developed
the technique in the thirties, once compared the body to a tent
where the poles of the tent are like the bones of the body, and
the fascia is like the strings that give the tent its shape.
By reorganizing these "strings" a rolfer can structurally integrate the body to its natural state, claims Rolf.
Joel Schwartz is a U of O senior majoring in Physical Education and Bio-Mechanics. Schwartz claims that, "Rolfing helped
me to study better. I became more efficient. I was spending less
time studying and getting more accomplished than before I was
Rolfed.
''Essentially the physiology of the body affects how the mind
works. You can't separate the two," he says.

Rico Perez: Fighting apathy, inciting action
by Diane Davis

TORCH Editor

Student Rico Perez has been
fighting apathy at LCC for
two years.
Most recently he has pressed
for an organized Center
Building evacuation plan for
disabled students. He admits
he's been "butting heads"
with the LCC Administration
throughout Fall Term.
Perez was appointed as the
ASLCC Cultural
Director
during fall Term 1986-87, and
re-elected Spring Term. But,
besides coordinating music
and public events, he wants to
resolve what he considers
legitimate problems on the
campus.
"I'm sure the present
government (ASLCC) does
not want to butt heads, but
(the lack of an adequate
evacuation plan) is a problem
that needs to be addressed.
They (disabled students) have
paid their money to come
here. Why ignore them?"
He says because he is a
minority member, he may be
more sensitive to people who
are being ignored -- and to
apathy.
For example, he refers to a
general campus-wide apathy
he experienced after organizing last year's Martin Luther
King, Jr. comemoration.
'' I had to beg people to
come. Five minutes before it
began there were 10 people in
the auditorium. Thank God,
at 12 noon three classes showed up. (But) I was very disappointed."
Attributing the lack of student interest to deficient instructor support, Perez says,

ASLCC bids farewell to Cultural Director Rico Perez.

"I can't stress enough to the
faculty here that the ASLCC
would like to support you, but
we'd also like to be supported."
Perez has already engaged
performers for this year's
Martin Luther King Jr. Commemoration, which will be
held on Jan. 15 in the LCC

International Students get
American mentor help
by Katayoon Moavenzadeh

TORCH Staff Writer

Moving to a foreign country, making new friends, and learning a new language is a ponderous, and sometimes unbearable,
experience for a student.
LCC's Peer Mentor program is designed to help international
students in their transition to life in America through cultural
awareness.
The program advocates learning about customs, social rules,
similarities and dissimilarities between a foreign student's country and his (or her) new home.
"International students have language problems," says peer
mentor coordinator, Hidehiko Suyama. ''Therefore they have
hesitations when it comes to communicating with American
students. So they always get together with students from their
own country."
In order to break the social barrier, American students are
asked to volunteer as mentors and are paired up with foreign
students. Activities are scheduled to help them become better
aquainted.
The paired couples meet at least twice a week to develop the
language skills of the international student through conversation.
Paired students are also required to make cultural presentations at elementary and middle schools in the local area during
winter and spring terms.
The peer mentor program is housed at the Multicultural
Center because, according to peer mentor Advisor Mason Davis,
both the center and the program share the common goals of encouraging people to develop a one to one relationship, regardless
of where they are from. Both also uphold individual cultural
identity and heritage, he states.

Performing Arts Theatre from
7 p.m. to 9:30 p.m. He has
booked the Inspirational
Sounds Gospel Choir, but says
the program is still in the planning stages.
In addition to the King program, Perez has been formulating plans for campus
entertainment for the entire

school year. This rush to
organize and book groups for
Peace Week, noon concerts,
and outdoor concerts for Spring Term -- among others -- is
predicated by his anticipated
departure from LCC at the
end of Fall Term.
"I will disappear into the
flow of students at the U of
0," states the music major.
To advance his goal of
becoming a music promoter -while getting an insider's view
of the career he hopes to pursue -- Perez spent this past
summer working as a bookings coordinator for the Hult
Center. He gathered promotional materials and coordinated funding. And he
booked entertainment for
Concerts in the Park, the
Harvest Fair, the Eugene
Celebration, and Arts in the
Vineyard.
"The Eugene Celebration
was the most challenging by
far. On three days of the
Celebration I was stage
manager for three productions. It really kept me running.''
Anticipating
his
"disappearance," Perez admits he is grooming ASLCC
Senator Mike Stewart to take
over the position of Cultural
Director.
"Mike Stewart is very
dedicated. The (ASLCC)
cabinet will -have to appoint
him, but they would be losing
a major asset if they don't appoint him."
Stewart has already shown a
similar dedication to some of
the issues on which Perez has
focused this year, namely
disabled students.
The culmination of their ef-

forts for an organized evacuation plan is a month-long
registration by the ASLCC of
all disabled and incapacitated
students on campus.
''The Administration is not
listening. Otherwise they
would have implemented a
program beyond saying,
'Everyone will know what to
do.' We're paying to come to
this school. We have a right to
be safe, and to courtesy instead of opposition.''
Rather than waiting · for
what he claims were unkept
promises by the administration for an organized plan at
the beginning of Fall Term,
Perez is conducting the current
registration to get an up-todate head count of all disabled
students.
He also says it's imperative
to find out what a student's
disabilities are, before pulling
him or her out of a wheelchair
and causing possible injury.
Stressing again the importance of instructor support,
Perez says, "It's not feasible
to think that students will go
orderly down the stairs, bringing the disabled with them. We
must organize instructors to
bring down these students, as
well as their expensive equipment."
While Perez might not be
around to see the actual fruits
of his labor for an evacuation
plan, he says he's leaving LCC
on a good note.
"Despite some of the letdowns, you take the good with
the bad." And Perez thinks
that ''more instructor support
in areas concerning Martin
Luther King Jr. and disabled
students'' would alleviate
some of the "bad" at LCC.

Story by David Monje and Diane Davis

of the TORCH

Martin Luther King, Jr., was born in
Atlanta, GA, on Jan. 15, 1929. His mother
was a school teacher named Alberta Christine
Williams King, and his father, Rev. Martin
Luther King, Sr., was a Baptist minister.
From 1935 to 1944 King attended the David
T. Howard elementary school, the Atlanta
University Laboratory School, and the
Booker T. Washington High School.
He left high school after his junior year,
and entered Morehouse College as a
freshman, at age 15. His fervor for learning,
which had induced him to apply for college at
such a young age, remained with him
throughout his years at Morehouse.
After graduating from Morehouse in 1948
at age 19, King obtained a license to preach
and became an associate pastor to his father
at Ebenezer Baptist Church in Atlanta.
While serving the congregation with his
father proved to be a time of closeness for the
two, they differed in their outlooks towards
the racism surrounding them. Martin had not
developed the resentment towards whites that
the senior King had. He once told his father,
"I know I could resent every person in the
white race, and it would be easy. That's the
point. It would be too easy, and I know the
answer to so much of this is more
complicated."
His need to find a means to solve the
oppression of his race drove him to enter
Crozer Theological Seminary in Chester, PA.,
in September of 1948. While there he studied
the teachings and philosophy of Mohandas K.
Gandhi of India. It was through his study of
Gandhi that King developed the seeds of his
plan of non-violent direct action that he
would later use to confront the injustices
against American blacks.
He came to believe that non-violent direct action
was not the same as pacificism -- simply ignoring an
evil. Instead, he said, it was a ''courageous
confrontation of evil by the power of love, in the faith that it is better to be
the recipient of violence than the inflictor of it."
He later said of his study of Ghandi, "My skepticism concerning the power
of love (Jesus' 'turn the other cheek' and 'love your enemies' philosophy)
gradually diminished, and I came to see for the first time its potency in the
area of social reform . . . I came to feel that this was the only morally and
practically sound method open to oppressed people in their struggle for
freedom."
In 1951 King graduated from Crozer with a Bachelor of Divinity degree.
In 1953 he married Coretta Scott of Marion, AL. Coretta had grown up as
a farm girl in a rural community about 80 miles south of Montgomery.
She had entered the New England Conservatory as a voice major in 1951 and
was developing a promising career as a singer when she agreed to become the
wife of the Rev. King.
A year after the marriage, King accepted a position as pastor of the Dexter
Avenue Baptist Church in Montgomery, AL. While it bothered both he and
Coretta to return to the prejudice of the South, after living in the relative
freedom of the North, they both knew they belonged to the South, and "We
came to the conclusion that we had the moral obligation to return,'' said
King, "at least for a few year."

On Dec. 1, 1955, a black seamstress, Rosa Parks, was arrested for failing to
yield her bus seat to a white man. King and fellow ministers in the city, Ralph
David Abernathy, H.H. Hubbard and L. Roy Bennett, organized a boycott of
Montgomery buses which lasted one year and led to the integration of all
buses in the predominantely black city.
In February of 1957; King and black leaders from around the South met
and formed the Southern Christian Leadership Conference. King was elected
its president, and with the election his nonviolent philosophy became the
dominant institution for the South.
After returning to Atlanta to co-pastor once again with his father at
Ebenezer Baptist Church, King led the historic "March on Washington" in
1963.
He received the Nobel Peace Prize in 1964 for his nonviolent demonstrations
throughout the South.
In May of 1966 King agreed to serve as cochairman of Clergy and Laymen
Concerned about Vietnam. An antiwar statement by King was read at a large
Washington, D.C., rally to protest the war in Vietnam.
King was assassinated on April 4, 1968 by James Earl Ray, while standing
with friends on the balcony of the Lorraine Hotel in Memphis.

'I Have A

(Editor's note: In Washington, D.C. on Aug. 28, 1963, more than
200,000 persons participated in a "march for jobs and freedom"
at the Lincoln Memorial -- one hundred years and eight months
after the Emancipation Proclamation. The march was intended to
prod Congress to deal at last with the issues of civil rights and
poverty.)

"Five score years ago, a great American, in whose symbolic
shadow we stand, signed the Emancipation Proclamation. This
momentous decree came as a great beacon light of hope to
millions of Negro slaves who had been seared in the flames of
withering injustice. It came as a joyous daybreak to end the long
night of captivity.
But one hundred years later, we must face the tragic fact that
the Negro is still sadly crippled by the manacles of segregation and
the chains of discrimination. One hundred years later, the Negro
lives on a lonely island of poverty in the midst of a vast ocean of
material prosperity. One hundred years later, the Negro is still
languished in the corners of American society and finds himself
an exile in his own land. So we have come here today to dramatize
an appalling condition.
In a sense we have come to our nation's Capital to cash a check.
When the architects of our republic wrote the magnificent words
of the Constitution and the Declaration of Independence, they
were signing a promissory note to which every American was to
fall heir. This note was a promise that all men would be
guaranteed the unalienable rights of life, liberty, and the pursuit
of happiness.
It is obvious today that America has defaulted on this promissory note insofar as her citizens of color are concerned. Instead of honoring this sacred obligation, America has given the
Negro people a bad check; a check which has come back marked
"insufficient funds. " But we refuse to believe that the bank of
justice is bankrupt. We refuse to believe that there are insufficient
funds in the great vaults of opportunity of this nation. So we have
come to cash this check-a check that will give us upon demand the
riches of freedom and the security of justice.

Clan members in Birmingham, Alabama organize to fight integration.

I have a dream that one day this nation will rise
up and live out the true meaning of its creed: 'We
hold these truths to be self-evident; that all men
are created equal. '
Martin Luther King, Jr.

We have also come to this hallowed spot to remind America of
the fierce urgency of now. This is no time to engage in the luxury
of cooling off or to take the tranquilizing drug of gradualism.
Now is the time to make real the promises of democracy. Now is
the time to rise from the dark and desolate valley of segregation to
the sunlit path of racial justice. Now is the time to open the doors
of opportunity to all of God's children. Now is the time to lift our
nation from the quicksands of racial injustice to the solid rock of
brotherhood.
It would be fatal for the nation to overlook the urgency of the
moment and to underestimate the determination of the Negro.
This sweltering summer of the Negro's legitimate discontent will
not pass until there is an invigorating autumn of freedom and
equality. Nineteen sixty-three is not an end, but a beginning.
Those who hope that the Negro needed to blow off steam and will
now be content will have a rude awakening if the nation returns to
business as usual. There will be neither rest nor tranquillity in
America until the Negro is granted his citizenship rights. The
whirlwinds of revolt will continue to shake the foundations of our
nation until the bright day of justice emerges.
But there is something that I must say to my people who stand
on the warm threshold which leads into the palace of justice. In
the process of gaining our rightful place we must not be guilty of
wrongful deeds. Let us not seek to satisfy our thirst for freedom
by drinking from the cup of bitterness and hatred. We must
forever conduct our struggle on the high plane of dignity and
discipline. We must not allow our creative protest to degenerate
into physical violence. Again and again we must rise to the majestic heights of meeting physical force with soul force.
The marvelous new militancy which has engulfed the Negro
community must not lead us to a distrust of all white people, /or
many of our white brothers, as evidenced by their presence here
today, have come to realize that their destiny is tied up with our
destiny and their Jreedom is inextricably bound to our freed om.
We cannot walk alone.
And as we walk, we must make the pledge that we shall march
ahead. We cannot turn back. There are those who are asking the
devotees of civil rights, "When will you be satisfied?"

Dream '

We cannot be satisfied as long as the Negro's basic mobility is
from a smaller ghetto to a larger one.
We can never be satisfied as long as a Negro in Mississippi cannot vote and a Negro in New York believes he has nothing for
which to vote.
No, no, we are not satisfied, and we will not be satisfied until
justice rolls down like waters and righteousness like a mighty
stream.
I am not unmindful that some of you have come here out of
great trials and tribulations. Some of you have come fresh from
narrow jail cells. Some of you have come from areas where your
quest for freedom left you battered by the storms of persecution
and staggered by the winds of police brutality. You have been the
veterans of creative suffering. Continue to work with the faith
that unearned suffering is redemptive.

Go back to Mississippi, go back to Alabama, go back to South
Carolina, go back to Georgia, go back to Louisiana, go back to
the slums and ghettos of our Northern cities, knowing that
somehow this situation can and will be changed. Let us not
wallow in the valley of despair.
I say to you today, my friends, that in spite of the difficulties
and frustrations of the moment l still have a dream. It is a dream
deeply rooted in the American dream.
I have a dream that one day this nation will rise up and live out
the true meaning of its creed: "We hold these truths to be selfevident; that all men are created equal. ''
I have a dream that one day on the red hills of Georgia the sons
offormer slaves and the sons offormer slaveowners will be able
to sit down together at the table of brotherhood.

I have a dream that one day even the state of Mississippi, a
desert state sweltering with the heat of injustice and oppression,
will be trans/ormed into an oasis of freedom and justice.

I have a dream that my four little children will one day live in a
nation where they will not be judged by the color of their skin but
by the content of their character.
I have a dream today.
I have a dream that one day the state of Alabama, whose governor's lips are presently dripping with the words of interposition
and nullification, will be trans/ormed into a situation where little
black boys and black girls will be able to join hands with little
white boys and white girls and walk together as sisters and
brothers.
I have a dream today.
I have a dream that one day every valley shall be exalted, every
hill and mountin shall be made low, the rough places will be made
plains, and the crooked places will be made straight, and the glory
of the Lord shall be revealed, and all flesh shall see it together.

symphony of brotherhood.

With this faith we will be able to work together, to pray
together, to struggle together, to go to jail together, to stand up
for freedom together, knowing that we will be free one day.

And if America is to be a great nation, this must become true.
So let freedom ring from the prodiqious hilltops of New Hampshire. Let freedom ring from the mighty mountains of New York.
Let freedom ring from the heightening Alleghenies of Pennsylvania!

Demonstrators in Birmingham,
AL in 1963, were met with K-9
killer attack dogs (left) and water
from high-pressure hoses "that
could take the bark off a tree forty feet away" (below)".

Let freedom ring from the snowcapped Rockies of Colorado!
Let freedom ring from the curvaceous peaks of California! But
not only that; let freedom ring from Stone Mountain of Georgia!
Let freedom ring from Lookout M_ountain of Tennessee!
Let freedom ring from every hill and molehill of Mississippi.
From every mountainside, let freedom ring.
When we let freedom ring, when we let it ring from every village
and every hamlet, from every state and every city, we will be able
to speed up that day when all of God's children, black men and
white men, Jews and Gentiles, Protestants and Catholics, will be
able to join hands and sing in the words of the old Negro spiritual,
"Free at Last! Free at Last! Thank god almighty, we are free at
last!''

LCC's captain assaulted, out for
by J.V. Bolkan

TORCH Sports Editor

The captain of the LCC
men's basketball team is more
interested in blocking pain
than blocking shots.
Last year's most valuable
player, a NWAACC second
team all-star selection, should
be leading the Titans onto the
floor. Todd Doll should be attracting attention from major
college basketball scouts.
But, Doll won't play basketball for LCC this year. A
brutal class-four felony assault
following the U of O - California football game Oct. 31 left
Doll with a fractured skull.
Doll says he and his friend
Greg Hicks were playing catch
with a football, waiting for the
sluggish Autzen Stadium traffic to clear in the parking lot.
When traffic began to move,
Hicks found the keys to his
Ford Bronco were missing.
A passing motorist told the
pair that he'd seen some men
"messing around'' with his
truck. They were driving a
light colored Wagoneer slightly further along in the traffic.
When confronted by Doll
and Hicks, the driver of the
Wagoneer told them that the
keys were under Hicks' car
seat. Hicks ran to check, while
Doll remained to keep the men
from leaving until the keys
were recovered.

"I was just standing there,
tossing the football up and
down. They began harassing
me. Sensing a confrontation, I
walked away. That's the last I
remember,'' says Doll.
Al Weller witnessed the attack from his car near the
scene. Emerging from the
passenger side front seat, a
man came up behind Doll,
swung an unknown object,
hitting Doll on the side of the
face, according to Weller.
The blind-side blow knocked one of Doll's teeth through
his cheek. He fell unconscious
to the parking lot surface.
The assailant fled on foot,
and has yet to be apprehend·ed. He was a white male, 25-35
years old, about 6 feet tall, 170
pounds with dark hair. He was
wearing a Washington
Huskies hat, a dark wool
sweater, and light gray cotton
pants. Anyone with information is asked to call the UO
Campus Security Office,
686-5444.
Well er has told Doll that
when Hicks noticed Doll was
injured, he began pursuing the
Wagoneer on foot. Catching
the vehicle, he dove in the window and turned off the ignition. Police, arriving to aid the
unconscious Doll, arrested
Hicks for disorderly conduct.
After taking the names of the
three passengers of the

'87- 88 Run,

Wagoneer, police allowed the
them to leave.
It has been one month since
the attack. Doll appears quite
healthy, except for a small scar
on his cheek where the tooth
broke through. Handing out
towels from the equipment
room, Doll is asked how
basketball is going this year.
Already becoming rote,
Doll briefly explains that a
head injury is keeping him
from competition this year.
Before the question can be
framed, Doll smiles, he's
aware that the extent of his injury is not noticable. ''When
my head hit the ground, my
brain was thrown against the
front of my skull. Swelling
and bleeding occurred, then
blood clots formed.
Only because I'm a healthy,
young athlete did they decide
not to perform brain
surgery,'' explains Doll. The
possibility of seizures has
caused him to be monitored
around the clock for the past
thirty days. He wa~ not allowed to drive a car, only walk, or
ride.
He must take the anticonvulsion drug, Delantin, for
at least another three months,
possibly a year. He has been in
constant pain from the
pressure exerted by the blood
pooled behind his right eye.
''Thanksgiving was the first

day I didn't take aspirin, but I
really had to fight it (pain),"
says Doll.
He had plenty of reasons to
become depressed. He was not
covered by insurance suffient
to pay the large medical bills
he was ringing up.
He would miss the opportunity to build upon last years
all-star performance on the
basketball court.
Doll worried that his financial aid award would disappear if he failed to pass the resee Doll, page 13

group of LCC runners for approximately the first half of
the race.
According to Pieratt, ''She
snuck up from behind and
said, 'There's the third
Spokane runner.' We said,
'Go get her' and she did."
Working as a group the
Lane runners passed the competition enmasse. Explaining
the theory behind the strategy,
Wilken says, "It's a lot easier
to pass when you're with your
teammates. You support each
other in addition to demoralizing the other runners.
"Other schools really burst
out. We ran very conservatively and closed the gap."
Wilken says she devised the
team strategy after assessing
the difficulty of the course.
Citing the hilliness and extreme softness of the course
due to rainfall, she concluded
that opposing runners were
likely to begin at a pace faster
than reasonable.
LCC' s victory gained
Wilken her third consectutive
NWAACC Coach of the Year
award. She also won in it 1983
when LCC finished second.
Championships are not unique to Wilken, but she claims
this year's team is special.
''This one means more than
the previous two. The team
has amazing cohesiveness and
dedication. They improved so
much.''

Meet the Titans
by J.V. Bolkan
TORCH Sports Editor

The newest version of the
LCC men's basketball team
will be a racing model.
The Titans will be a ·high
energy, pressure type team,
says head coach Dale Bates.
Stating his team lacks height,
he says it plays "tall," by having quick feet and good jumpability.
ing
Experience in the back court
should help the :fitans keep
the running game purring.
Dave Fleissner and Tony
Broadous both return from
strong seasons last year.

Harold Michaud Forward

The other two Titan
returnees are Jeff Thomas,
and Steve Courtney, both
front line players who'll be expected to contribute heavily as
the season progresses.
The starting line-up for the
first game features three firstyear players. Harold Michaud,
a former all-league player with
Thurston will join post player
Mike Surmeier, and forward,
Harrison Branch.
Bates is looking for the
Titans to use deception, as
well as speed in the pursuit of
a play-off spot. "We'll present
multiple looks on both defense
and offense in order to con-

fuse the other team."
Assisting Bates with
coaching duties are Greg
Merlau, back for his sixth
year, and Monte Alderson,
returning after an absence.
While Bates feels his team is
much too young to evaluate
accurately at this point, he
does admit to a good feeling
about this team.
"I think we'll be the kind of
team that will just keep getting
better and better as the year
goes on. If we can close the
first third of the season at 7-5
or 8-4, I'd say watch out,
because we'll be in a good
position for the play-offs."

fear that his basketball career

Doll's brother-in-law, Tim
Carmichael says, "Losing an
opportunity is tragic, you're

That Doll had to battle bitterness and depression is far

Rolfing,

....i

frompage4 _ _ __

Lackritz points out that the primary aim of Rolfing is to
realign the body's structure. A side-effect of this procedure is
the elimination of pain, she believes.
An activity like studying can result in chronic pain, but structural problems can also be caused by traumatic and
pyschological problems.
Traumatic problems include any physical injuries that cause
one part of the body to support the weakened area.
Psychological problems become chronic when a shy person
slumps or a macho person affects a particular stance. When
these postures become fixed, as an exterior manifestation of personality, the body uses muscle and fascia to create a new form of
support, say Rolfers.
Rolfing consists of 10 sessions of approximately one hour
each that are usually spaced at least one week apart. The price
ranges from $40 to $7 5 an hour.
Most patients claim that after· the sessions their bodies aren't
as apt to get into the positions that caused their problems in the
first place.
Lackritz suggests some simple tips for students when studying:
• Sit correctly so you're not straining when reading or writing.
• Get up every hour to stretch and take a short walk to get a
drink of water.
• Align your books in a position where the neck is not bent
over. When working at a computer try to have your papers or
monitor at eye level.
• Don't rush out and do an activity that requires a burst of
energy right after sitting for long periods of time.
Thousands of people have been relieved of pain and become
more efficient and energetic from Rolfing. For the student faced
with the mental stress of school and the physical problems
•associated with studying, Rolfing may be just what the student
needs.

ENTERTAINMENT

The Nutcracker

Cheap thrills

by Julie Crist

FREE

TORCH Entertainment Editor

What has dancing Bon Bons, baby mice and Royal Rodent
Troops?
Yes, once again Herr Drosselmeyer is giving his niece Clara a
nutcracker for Christmas in the Eugene Ballet Company's performance of "The Nutcracker."
When Uncle Drosselmeyer brings Clara the gift at her family's
Christmas party, her brother Fritz jealously breaks it. But Uncle
fixes the nutcracker, and the party ends in one final dance.
When Clara falls asleep with her nutcracker on the sofa, Uncle Drosselmeyer returns to cast a spell of good dreams over her.
Clara awakens to find that large and small mice have overrun
her home, and everything in it is growing larger.
The famous battle ensues when the vicious Mouse King leads
his troops to attack Clara's nutcracker. When Clara ends the
battle by bopping the Mouse King over the head with her shoe,
the grateful nutcracker invites her on a trip to the Kingdom of
Sweets.
During her trip, Clara meets the Snow Prince and Princess
and the Sugar Plum Fairy, who holds a festival of dance in
Clara's honor. After the dance, Clara is back at home. Was it all
a dream?
"The Nutcracker" will be performed Dec. 17-20. Evening
performances are at 8 p.m. Saturday and Sunday matinees are at
2:30 p.m. Tickets are $4.75-$19.75 from the Hult Center and its

for the TORCH

Dec. 8
'' Choral
Christmas XII," a free
holiday music program
featuring four U of 0
music school choirs, will
begin at 8 p. m. in Beall
Concert Hall.

LCC' s resident potters want
you to give a useful, inexpensive, handmade gift this
season.
On Dec. 1 and 2 in the college cafeteria they displayed
their coffee mugs, casseroles,
tea sets, dinner and pie plates,
candlesticks, and bowls of
assorted shapes and sizes.
Many of the potters will now
take their collections to local
art fairs.
Anne Dumbleton is one of
LCC' s potters who sold her
wares at the Dec. 1 and 2
display. She says "The best
place to gain recognition as a
potter in Eugene is to set up a
booth at the Eugene Saturday
Market and sell, sell, sell."
She says the most difficult task
is to determine a reasonable
price that will attract buyers,
but will not lose profit.
Other pottery sales this
season include:
• The Christmas Country
Fair at the Westmoreland
Center in Eugene (next door to
Jefferson Middle School near
West 18th) on Dec. 4 and 5,
from 10 a.m. through 8 p.m.
• The Holiday Arts and
Crafts Fair at the Lane County
Fairgrounds, Dec. 11 through
