Signatures gathered

Coogan gets lost in thought in the season of love.

Seeking voter approval on urban renewal projects, and supporting the Riverfront area as a natural recreation/resource
area, Eugene advocates gathered signatures in the LCC cafeteria
at the weekly Friday Forum on Jan. 29.
However, all three fell short of the Feb. 5 cutoff date needed
to make the May 19 ballot.
The first measure would have amended the Eugene charter by
requiring voter approval for any new urban renewal plan that
pledges tax increment funds to pay debts or uses any financial
aid to fund it.
Former LCC Board of Education member and current budget
committee member, Catherine Lauris, who collected signatures
for the measure, stated "Citizens have a right to vote on urban
renewal projects."
Urban renewal projects are funded through "tax increment"
financing in which taxes resulting from higher property values in
the urban renewal district are applied to the cost of the project.
According to Richard Gold, who helped draft the measure,
that means less tax money for schools and other public expenditures because the whole area funds the project.
He said under the current charter, a majority vote of the city
council is all that's needed to fund urban renewal projects.
Gold stated the measure would require voter approval of projects even if they are funded entirely by government grants, etc.
He says it's to keep "unpopular projects from getting through
the back door.''
Lauris said the measure stems from the big debate over
whether or not to reopen Willamette street to traffic. She says
that people should have the right to "vote for the mayor's
debts."
Another measure would have amended the city charter to
create a Recreation/Natural Resource Zone. This measure contends that any area of land that may have recreational outdoor
uses that are unique and irreplaceable can be petitioned by 15
percent of Eugene residents to receive the natural resource zoning.
Another initiative requested the rezoning of about half of the
Riverfront Research Park. It asks that any structures be built
300 feet from the riverfront.
Dan Stotter, spokesperson for Citizens for Responsible Land·
Use, sponsors of the initiative, said, "We favor economic
development, but we don't have to destroy our best natural
resources and recreational areas to do it. Eugene is a special
place."
As of noon, Lauris said over 100 people had signed the petitions in the cafeteria. She said between 50 and 75 filled out voter
registration cards, which made them eligible to sign the petitions.
By law, the groups can continue to collect signatures to place
the measures on a future ballot.

Support groups depend on student response
by Bob Walter

TORCH Staff Writer

Sometimes people need a little help coming to terms with
their problems.
Graduate students from the
U of O and OSU have formed
support groups at LCC to offer assistance.
The following support
groups are currently meeting
at LCC:
The Self Esteem Support
Group meets in Room 220 of
the Center Building Thursdays
at 11 :30 a.m .
Alcoholics Anonymous and
Narcotics Anonymous meet
together in Room 220 of the

Center Building on Mondays
at 1 p.m.
Displaced Homemakers,
which is limited to women who
have gone through the Transitions to Success program.
The groups' survival
depends on student response.
Efforts to organize three support groups this term failed
due to lack of participation:
Women Who Love Too Much;
Incest Survivors, and Head Injured Returning to School.
LCC counselor Rich Fruend
supervises the students in
charge of the groups, who also
perform other counseling
duties.

Campus support groups assist students in need.

fORUMS l!l LETTERS

Portland molester's hobby·briefly interrupted
opinion by Julie Crist

TORCH Editor

Richard Bateman's lawyer
thinks that signs identifying
Bateman as a child molester
are unfair.
Boy, that's really sad.
I see what he means. Hasn't
Richard been harassed enough
by mean old Multnomah
County District Judge
Dorothy Baker?
In 1979, poor Richard, 47,
was sentenced to the Oregon
State Penitentiary just for kidnapping and sodomizing a
young girl!
After that inconvenient experience was over, Rich's hobby got him into trouble again,
and he pleaded no contest to
two counts of sex abuse involving 5-year-olds. When
Richard did the decent thing
and refused to admit he had a
problem or to undergo
therapy, Judge Baker ordered
him to post warning signs on
his house and car that read:
"Dangerous Sex Offender. No
Children Allowed.''
And if that wasn't enough,
she ordered him to submit to
treatment for alcohol and sex
abuse.
Then Christmas came, and

Richard, in the spirit of the
season, decorated the sign on
his door with a Christmas
wreath.
But Judge Baker, the

scrooge, in a blatant abuse of
power, issued an arrest warrant for our buddy Richard
just for hanging a wreath on
his door! She said he was try-

ing to camouflage the sign.
Well, a guy knows when
he's not wanted, so Ric? left

-------PA SS THE BUCK-- ---~ Student insulted
Student's questions and suggestions for Pass the Buck are accepted at the Student
Resource Center, 2nd floor, Center Building.
To SRC Director Dagny Brown:
Please have hot water everyday of the week, and coffee and Tea on Wednesday.
Reason/ Answer:
A very good question. I will see what we can do through the SRC and ASLCC.
More info later. Maybe we can take a survey of LCC students to see what their
needs may be.
To library:
Why does the library close at 9:45? I am taking evening classes and must await
the final bus which leaves at 10 p.m. I would like to be able to work in the library
on assignments until I have to leave. Stated library hours are until 10 p.m. !
From Andrew J. Dun
"We do not close at 9:45. We do start turning the lights off at five minutes to
ten, but we don't close at 9:45." - Virginia Bailey, evening circulation clerk
To Person in charge of programming:
Please let us hear more experimental music like something electronic and symphonic ... Tomita?
From H. M. Le Swank
Communications/ Data specialist Donna Morgan answers, "We have two kinds
of music -- KLCC and Muzak. When KLCC is playing music, we use them. We
play Muzak during the news, etc. Our primary purpose is to give KLCC as much
promotion as possible."

To Food director:
Why are food prices in the cafeteria so high? Let's do something, students are on
aid and can't afford to eat properly when it's convenient.

To the Editor
Well, once again the Torch
displays a classic example of
extreme bias in it's reporting
of the news.
I believe the editorial by
Julie Crist was an insult to
students like myself. I am
enrolled in Writing 120, a class
that focuses on basic grammar
and english studies. It is not a
class for educationally delayed
students, at least not to my
knowledge. It is a class designed to help students like myself
who have forgotten much of
what they leaned in high
school. It is also for students
who have a little trouble with
the comprehension of the
english language. After all, it
is one of the hardest languages
in the world to master.
However, my point is, I'm
not ignorant or learning
disabled. I consider myself to
be highly intelligent and articulate. It's just that some
students need a little simpler
teaching methods to understand better. Lord knows my
teacher would fit in very well
at any area grade school, but I
don't believe that she or any of
the other teachers here at LCC
would ever condescend to any
student. Her teaching methods
suit me just fine thank-you.

some bigot with a thing
against child molesters ratted
on him.
So now Richard is back in
prison, and he says he's
afraid.
Well I can sure understand
that. The poor guy is probably
afraid of boredom. How will
he continue his hobby, which
he has obviously carefully
refined over a number of
years, if he's stuck in jail?
There aren't any kids in there.
Since it slipped his mind
that Judge Bateman made an
alcohol treatment appointment for him last year, he's
also probably afraid that
they'll make him go now, and
I bet sodomizing 5-year olds
isn't half as much fun when
you're sober!
At least Richard can rest
assured that he will spend no
more than nine years in jail. I
suppose four-and-a-half years
per kid is the going rate these
days.
And when he gets out, he'll
be free of those embarassing
signs on his doors that were
such a blow to his sterling
reputation, and which most
5-year olds couldn't read
anyway.

Doctorates for Blacks Decrease

Black Americans earned 820 research doctorates in
1986, 26.5 percent fewer than they received 10 years ago.
Black males earned only 321 research doctorates in 1986,
down from 684 in 1977.
In comparision, the number of doctorates awarded to
black women was 499, more than 15 percent higher than in
1977.
The numbers were reported by the National Research
Council.
The research council's wide-ranging survey also reported
a continuing decline in the proportion of doctorates earned
in the US by US citizens.
They received 72.3 percent of the 31,770 research doctorates awarded in 1986, down from 85.6 percent in 1962.
The decline was especially noted among white males,
who earned 28.6 percent fewer doctorates than a decade
ago.
Community Colleges Must Respond

Urban community colleges must respond to a new
challenge of educating a student body that is increasingly
made up of minority members. The less affluent, and people who are less prepared for college, according to a study
by the American Association of Community and Junior
Colleges.
The report states that unless there is an improvement in
the education of minority-group members, youths will not
have the ability to participate in an increasingly skillsoriented job market.
The problem of the future will not be a labor shortage,
but a skill shortage born of the mismatch between the
needs of the labor market and the profile of the labor pool,
the report says. It is precisely as a result of that mismatch
that a new nation will emerge within the US borders -- a
darker nation born in poverty -- unemployed and
unemployable.
The report contends that the problem of educating
minority students is especially pressing for urban community colleges because minorities make up almost 69 percent of their enrollment.
The study found that the academic preparation of
minority students is often inadequate. According to the
report, fewer than 50 percent of minority students have
taken classes that will prepare them for college admission.
This further intensifies the problem of achieving success
and excellence in the urban community college.
The authors of the report are concerned that the ''open
door" policy of community colleges might become a
"revolving door" policy, and urge the schools to help
minority students succeed in their academic programs.
Do Journalism and Advertising Mix?

Comments made to the Chronicle of Higher Education
by the president of the nation's leading journalism
educator's association have touched off a debate on
whether advertising and public-relations courses have a
place in journalism schools.
David Weaver, president of the Association for Education in Journalism and Mass Communication, stated that
he believes that advertising and public relations courses,
which are responsible for a growth in journalism-school
enrollment, do not belong in journalism schools.
Advertising and public-relations programs now make up
about 44 percent of journalism school enrollment. Many
journalism schools have re-christened themselves as _
schools of "communications" and have added advertising
and public relations programs.

Friday Forum explores issues
by Brian Frishman

TORCH Staff Writer

Abortion, AIDS, nuclear
arms, Central America,
animal rights, and the recent
Martin Luther King Jr.
festivities are just a few of the
issues the Friday Forum has
addressed since its inception in
fall, 1986.
A student-run club,
Forum's purpose is to
"educate and inform its
members and the student body
about current events,'' says
Debra Del George, one of this
year's co-leaders.
Del George, along with
Forum founder Su Boliou,
claim their main goal and
challenge is overcoming student apathy. '' Anyone is invited to contact us if they have
an issue they wish to present,''
says Boliou.
The group presents its
forums in the area between the
smoking and non-smoking
sections of the cafeteria on
Fridays between 9 a.m. and 2
p.m.
The only complaints about
the content of Friday Forums
came from students and
cafeteria workers who objected to videos showing the
evisceration of animals on a
program dealing with animal
rights and vegetarianism.
Boliou, however, was pleased with the complaints. She
believes that, ''negative opinion is better than no opinion."
Both Del George and Boliou
take pride in the awareness the
Forum has gained in the community and beyond. Whereas
they used to have to recruit
organizations or individuals to
present a topic, they are now
being approached by various
parties.
The future of the Friday
Forum is uncertain, but this
year Del George is receiving
work study benefits for her
role in the Forum. Del George
says this work-study position
will be available next year and
she believes this position will
help assure the continuation of
the Forum.
Del George is also writing a
"how to" booklet for new
members of the Forum to help
them avoid some of the
bureaucratic pitfalls that she
and other members learned

LC C student claims speech award
by Robert Ward

TORCH Associate Editor

LCC's forensics team brought home its
first trophy on Feb. 6, according to Advisor
Barbara Breaden.
She stated that LCC student William Becones
earned a perfect score among competitors from
the U of O and Carroll College (among others)
in his final speaking round to earn first place
honors for extemporaneous speaking at the
Northwest Forensic Conference Invitational
Tournament, sponsored by Clackamas Community College in Oregon City.
Forensics students Mark Llerena, Serene
Spiker, Brad Neuschwander and Vincent Jones

also participated in the event, said Breaden,
earning first and second places in preliminary
rounds of extemporaneous speaking and
dramatic competition.
"there are three
rounds in every event, and there were at least 25
competitors in each event our students
entered," said Breaden.
She said the five speech students competed
against 250 students from 27 colleges and
universities.
The ASLCC has sponsored the Forensics
students at their previous two competitions,
said Breaden. She says she plans to ask them
to assist in funding the next scheduled competition in Aberdeen, Washington, in April.

Titan men sweep weekend
by Robert Ward

TORCH Associate Editor

With a couple of weekend victories, including a Friday night, 81-71, overtime thriller,
the Titan men's basketball squad got back on
the winning track.
The Titans hosted the Mt. Hood Saints on
Feb. 5. The game started out as a see-saw battle
with both teams shooting poorly. With 7:20 to
go in the first half, the Saints led 19-18, with
defense and turnovers providing the bulk of the
action.
Forward Harrison Branch scored on a feed
from guard Dave Fleissner, and after a Saint
bucket, Tony Broadous hit a jumper to put
Lane in front 24-23.
The Titan guards put on a mini-run. Tony
Broadous scored on a 3 point bomb, and then a
basket by Dusty Auxier put Lane in front at the
half, 36-29.

Any pretense of a Titan runaway ended in the
beginning of the second half as the Saints came
out ready to play. A 9-1 Mt. Hood start put
them in the lead until Branch hit a turnaround
jumper to put the Titans back up, 39-38.
Two free throws by forward Harold Michaud
gave Lane some breathing room, 50-44, and
then Broadous got hot and hit three baskets to
widen Lane's lead to 60-53 with 2:49 remaining
in the game. Mt. Hood was forced to call a
timeout and regroup.
It wasn't over yet. The Saints came out pressing, forcing Lane into turnovers, and tied the
score with 1: 18 to play, 60-60.
Michaud hit two more free throws to give
Lane a two-point advantage with 30 seconds remaining, but Mt. Hood scored in the final
seconds to put the game into overtime.
The five minute extra period began with both
teams hitting a basket. The Titans scored again,
got the ball back, and Fleissner was fouled. He
hit the first shot in the one-and-one situation.
His second attempt missed, but center Mike
Surmier tipped it in for a 69-64 Lane lead.
As time became precious for the Saints they
had to intentionally foul the Titans. Broadous
went to the line 10 times in the extra period and
sank eight.
Lane attempted 19 free throws in overtime
and made 15, including two technicals assessed
to the Saints coach, who was ejected from the
game for protesting an official's call.
Lane traveled to Portland on Feb. 6 to take
on the Portland CC Panthers.
The Titans continued their hot free throw
shooting as they defeated the Panthers, 98-81.
Lane made 38 of 45 free throw attempts, and
29 of 59 field goal attempts.
Leading scorer Lane was Don Brent with 29.
Four other Titans scored in double figures.
Lane is now 5-6 in the conference, and 11-12
overall.

Lane women defeated
by Robert Ward

TORCH A"ocia1e hlitor

Lane's women basketball
team continued its struggling
season with a 58-53 loss to the
Mt. Hood CC Saints on Feb.
5.
With two regular starters,
Sheryl Jones and Terri
Gortler, on the bench for the
first seven minutes, the Titans
committed numerous turnovers with sloppy passing,
and fell behind quickly by nine
points, 15-6.
Lane spent most of the first
half playing catch-up, but with
two minutes left before intermission, the Titan defense
toughened, and with some
clutch free throw shooting by
Jones, found themselves trailing by only four at the buzzer,
28-24.
The Titans started the second half well when Angela
Englert put in an inside shot,
and Jill Altman and Teresa
Werner scored on layups to
give Lane a 30-29 lead.

for eight minutes until the turnover plague struck Lane
again. The Saints slowly pulled away until, with 4: IO left in
the game, the Titans trailed
51-40.
The Titan defense moved into high gear. Werner stole the
ball and fed Jones for two
points, and when Werner hit
both ends of a one-and-one
foul situation, Lane trailed by
only four, 52-48, with 2:30 to
play.
With time running out,
Lane's intentional fouls didn't
pay off as the Saints made
their free throws down the
stretch.
Sheryl Jones led the Titan
scoring with 18 points. Lane's
league record fell to 2-7.
