LCC holds low-cost dental clinic
Cassidy Carter opens up for Dental Assistant student Pat Roberts during a recent clinic staged by
the LCC Dental Hygiene Program.

To help remind students and staff to vote, ASLCC is
holding a turnout rally/ tax base promotion in the LCC
cafeteria on Nov. 5 at noon and the Oregon Students'
Public Research Interest Group (OSPIRG) is sponsoring
an Oct. 31 voter education day.
According to OSPIRG, only 20 percent of the United
States' eligible voters are registered to vote. In response
to this apathy, OSPIRG has registered 1,000 new voters
this fall.
Going before Lane County voters is a request for an
increase of $3.75 million to the projected 1991-92 tax
base atLCC.
According to ASLCC Senator Seth Craig, informed
officials will be present to answer questions people
might have regarding both the election and the LCC tax
base. "Wearehopingthat evenifthestudentsd on'tvote
yes on the tax base, they will vote," Craig says.
As an icebreaker for the rally, a group from the
Performing Arts will perform a short skit.
Following the skit, four speakers, including
Congressional candidate Tony Nathan, State Senator
Ralph Walters, State Rep. Carl Hostica, and Student
Body President Michael Omogrosso will talk about
either voter turnout or the tax base. The Senate has
invited Grattan Kerans or Lane County Commissioner
Jerry Rust, as well, though neither had accepted by Oct.
26.
The rally is expected to last no longer than one hour,
according to Craig.
"If you are ever upset about things that occur as a
result of lack of funding or are confused about the new
tax base, you will have an opportunity through (the
rally) to learn about and possibly understand it," says
t:raig.
On Oct. 31 OSPIRG is sponsoring a voter education
fair at noon. Representatives from both sides of the
ballot measures will be speaking along with candidates.
Jerry Moskus, President of LCC, will also be present.

VP candidate stresses community need
by Mary Browning
Torch Associate Editor

Jim Ellison was the first of six semi-finalists to
be interviewed for the position of vice president
of instruction.
lnanall-day,on-campusinterviewWednesday,
Oct. 24, Ellison, LCC's Interim Vice President for
Instruction, met with representatives from the
classified staff, faculty, and administration, toured
the campus, and attended an open meeting with
college personnel and students during his official
visit to the campus. About 50 people attended the
open meeting.
During a question-and-answer session in the
open meeting, Ellison stressed an idea he calls the
"core college concept.''
He said that the college needs to identify core
goals, and to give managers more time to share
ideas and innovations with each other. 11I t has to be
a coordinated vision," stated Ellison. "We need to
support one another's ideas and not look at who is
going to benefit. The vision should be for the

college ... (We need to) work more in collaboration,
and less in competition.
He identifi~ the college mission as "meeting
the needs of the college community. What we do,"
said Ellison, "is driven by the educational needs of
our community. We have to be sensitive to those
needs." He also spoke ofidentifying core courses
that would be guaranteed funding.
In his application to the search committee, he
wrote, #In a culture where change is the norm, the
community college is themostflexibleand dynamic
educational institution in our society."
Ellison also spoke of the need to facilitate longrange planning, the need to seek out new options
for funding ·college services, the necessity of
keeping decision-making at the lowest possible
level,. and the need for an experienced grant writer.
He said he feels a commitment to the college's
shared governance policy.
"Students are an integral part of our reason for
being here. (They) should be in on as many
decisions about the college as appropriate."
Each campus visit includes a tour of the campus

and the local comrimni ty, meetings with LCC
President Jerry Moskus, the Search Committee,
the Instructional Cabinet, the College ·Council,
and college personnel.
Upcoming visits are scheduled for Dr. Mary Lou
Schmidt, associate dean of instruction at Yakima
ValleyCommunityCollege, on Friday, Oct. 26; Dr.
James E. Wright, associate dean of business at
Massachusetts Bay Community College, on
Monday, Oct. 29; and Dr. Richard W. Brightman,
director of educational services at Coast
Community College District, on Friday, Nov .2.
All college personnel and studentsareinvited to
meet and ask questions of the candidates, during
their respective visits, at open meetings scheduled
for 3:15 p.m. in the Forum Building, room 309.
The search committee plans to select finalists
from the six semi-finalists, and visit the home
campus of each fin~list.
The committee expects the Board of Education
to offer the position to one of the candidates by the
first of the year, based on the committee's
recommendations .

Measure 5 akin to OP.INION POLL
LCC stranglehold

This week's question: Who will you vote for in the race for Oregon governor and why?

LCC faces the proverbial "double-whammy" in the Nov. 6
general election.
Not only does the college face the implications of the $3.75
million tax base failing to pass, LCC could also find itself
broadsided by Ballot Measure 5, which calls for a constitutional
limit on property taxes for schools and other government
operations.
• The cold facts of Measure 5
If Measure 5 passes, property tax rates will begin to be
reduced annually through 1995-96. In addition, says the Oregon
Voter's Pamphlet, during and after fiscal year 1991-92, taxes
imposeduponanypropertyshallbeseparatedintotwocategories:
one would fund public school operations, the alternate would
support other, non-school governmental operations.
If Measure 5 were to pass, 1991-92 property taxes for each
$1,000 of assessed value would be limited to $25; $15 of which
would go for public school operations and $10 for other
governmental operations. With each additional fiscal year, total
taxation for each $1,000 of assessed property value would drop
by $2.50. Funds for non-school governmental operations would
remain at $10, while funds for public school operations would
bear the $2.50 reduction. By fiscal year 1995-96, total taxes for
each $1,000 of assessed property value would total $15, with
public school operations receiving a mere $5 of that amount.
• Impact of Measure 5 on LCC
According to figures supplied by the LCC Office of
Administrative Services, with the passage of the measure, LCC
would face cuts amounting to more than $4.6 million in fiscal
year 1991-92, and cuts in excess of $16 million during fiscal year
1995-96.
During the five-year phase-in pericxi, Measure 5 would require
the "state general fund to replace any revenue lost by public
schools due to these limits," according to the Voter's Pamphlet.
However, according to an executive summary of Measure 5
supplied by LCC Administrative Services, "The legislature is not
required to maintain existing levels of support for Basic School
Support and community college support, both of which will be
vulnerable to substantial cuts."
In addition, lost revenue for public school operation must be
replaced only between fiscal years 1991-92 and 1995-96.
• The "Double Whammy:" Measure 5 and a failed tax base
Should LCC' s tax base fail, the college would be forced to cut
$2.3 million to balance the 1991-92 budget. Coupled with the
implications of Measure 5, total cuts could reach as much as $7
million in fiscal year 1991-92 alone. These cuts would deny many
present and future students access to training, retraining, and
preparation for a career in today's constantly changing job
market.
These cuts could also very well mean the complete elimination
of a working community college system in Oregon.

Mediocrity reigns in U.S. politics and education
The American public is beginning to
accept mediocrity as its foundation.
Never has this become so apparent
than in the arenas of politics and
education.
Political campaigns have been
reduced to 30-second partisan
advertisements which address
personalities rather than deal with
issues. The problems of drug abuse,
social welfare, school funding and
taxation get reduced to one line slogans
that are easily remembered, and soon
forgotten. Often, it seems, the slogans
are expected to be the solutions.
But when elected officials propose
complex solutions to serious problems,
the majority of the time these solutions
are based on political self-interest rather
than formed by a consensus of the
nation's best minds.
The country's budget crisis isa prime
example.
Rather than rely on the advice of
professional economists to cut the
federal deficit, the U.S. Congress would
rather bicker among themselves and
allow the budget process to break down
into an excercise of partisan politics
and "pork-barrel" legislation.
The political v1s1on ot our "leaders"

seldom goes beyond the length of their
terms of office, and those who do
express vision are expected by their
constituents to accomplish it before the
next election comes around.
As one U.S. Representative says,
"The voters think we're a bunch of
jerks and they're right."
But if anyone is more guilty of
mediocrity than the politicians, it is the
voters themselves. They keep returning
these same "jerks" to office year after
year.
Politicians have discovered that
voters are more inclined to support a
candidate who addresses their shortterm needs based on self-interestthan a
candidate who offers long-term
solutions which require sacrifice.
A perfect example of this is the
American public' sacceptance of Ronald
Reagan's pledge of tax-cuts,
extravagant military spending and the
blind pursuit of individual wealth as
opposed to Walter Mondale's message
of higher taxes and charity for all.
Reagan's popularity only began to
wane when the results of his economic
policies began to come to light in the
form of huge federal budget deficits
and the Savings & Loan crisis.

As a result of their voting habits,
Americans are facing the largest budget
deficit and credibility gap in U.S.
history. They have no one to blame but
themselves.
In the field of education, the
American public is accepting
mediocrity in lieu of a national vision.

by robert catalano
It expects public school teachers to
be baby-sitters, confidants, drug
counselors and psychologists, as well
as instructors, but doesn't want to pay
them what they're worth or give them
the tools to do the job. As a result, some
of the best and brightest who could be
teaching in public schools go to other
professions where there is more money
and fewer hassles.

Irritating freaks
To the Editor,
I have a suggestion for
Brantlee Eisenman who last
week complained in the
"Letters to the Edi tor" of
having to breath pipe and
cigarette fumes at the top of
the outdoor, front staircase
each Monday, Wednesday and
Friday. By exercising her right
to choose what staircase she
uses, she can avoid the three
seconds of discomfort she
experiences as she leaves the
top step, crosses the eight foot
landing and enters the
building. The smokers use the
fourth floor landing to comply
with the request of nonsmokers that smoking be
confined to the outside of
public buildings. By making
choices that are in her best
interest, this self labeled
"healthfreak"willfind that she
can coexist with smokers .
Unfortunately, I have no
idea how she can avoid the
clouds of half burnt, black,
diesel smoke blasting out of
the bussesshemustexperience
ltdaywhile waiting for and
leaving her bus. But perhaps
she's less offended by diesel
smoke than pipe smoke. These
health freaks can be very
selective in their revulsions.

Yes on tax base
To The Editor,
As Nov. 6 approaches, I feel
concern for LCCand it's future.
I am writing this as an appeal
to current students and
graduates of LCC
LCC is asking for a new tax
base limitation of $20,633,220,
beginning in the 1991-92 fiscal
year. The last tax base was
approved in 1980. Currently,
LCC, to live within its old tax

base, has had to reduce
managers, faculty, and
classified staff. In addition
tuition has increased 67.2%.
The major concern LCC is
facing,iswithouttheadditional
revenue, LCC will have to cut
back $2.3 million next spring
to balance the 1991-92 budget.
As students you should feel
worried. Where will the money
come from? Well, in addition
to services and staff being cut
back, I feel the only option LCC
will have, is to raise tuition.
Students already provide 22%
of the revenues, which is
among the highest in the state
and nation among community
colleges.
Some students will ask,
~'Why should I care, I am only
here for a small time, and then
I am gone." You might want to
ask yourself, "Did I receive a
qualityeducation?"Thecollege
is not perfect, but it does offer
something special. I care
enough about this school to
help in a time of need. I urge us
as students and as graduates
of this institution to come
together and vote YES for
LCC' s tax base, not only for us,
butforfuturestudents, to help
insure and maintain a quality
and of course, low-cost
education.

Parking woes
To the Editor,
As I prepared to put my

form, I thought up an excellent
idea that would reduce the
amount of students attending
LCC, reduce the daily parking
spot scramble, and at the same
time, give LCC some much
needed income.
Simply impound and
auction off all the cars of
students who have not paid
their parking violation fines.
This would net the college a
considerable sum due to the
fact that well over a hundred
(probably more?) of these nasty
little pink slips have appeared
on campus cars.
. Of course if LCC does this,
thay are going to have a lot
more people who, like myself,
are ticked off at the lack of

Candidate favors family choice of schools
Running as a Libertarian for the
position of Oregon's Governor in this
November's election, Fred Oerther has
written planks in his political platform
that his rivals cannot ignore. Oerther
proposes radical changes aimed at
limiting bureaucracies while working
for better care for the people now falling
through the current state system's
loopholes.
For example, Oerther, a retired
physician, responds to the plight of
people lacking health care by saying,
"The system has become more
interested in who is going to get paid
for what service than in what service is
going to be provided." Pausing briefly,
he adds, "I prefer a free open system,
one in which the allopaths don't
presume to have a monopoly on health
and medical care."
Crossing over to educational i~sues,
Oerther claims that the primary and
secondary schools are diminishing in
quality due to direct funding of
burgeoning bureaucracies. Citing the
fact that more money going to these
schools is resulting in poorer learning,
he says, "the money should go to the
consumer, not the provider."
Oerther proposes that the money

should come from the state legislature
and go directly to families with children,
allowing them to chose an alternative
school, perhaps, without being limited
in their choice by being unable to afford
their desired school.

commentary
john unger
Lamenting entrenched policies that
result in property taxes funding schools,
Oerther is also opposed to a sales tax,
and proposes to use state income taxes
as a source of these funds.
Oerther claims that high property
taxes are a cause of homelessness. "I
want to eliminate a good many people
at the lower end of property tax," he
says. He suggests a property tax
exemption of the first $75,000 value of
a home in order to help poorer people
keep roof's over their heads.
Translating Thomas Jefferson's "Life,
Liberty, and the Pursuit of Happiness"
to be equivalent of food, shelter and
clothing, Oerther says, "We have people
who are somehow being aced out of

their inalienable rights."
Addressing matters of state,
Oerther' s views often broaden to the
national and global as well. In
discussing the region's most pressing
economic issue, the timber crisis, he
begins by mentioning the importance
of saving trees to balance the biosphere.
Instead of cutting trees for pulp and
fiber, Oerther, a certified organic
farmer, proposes a policy of
regenerative agriculture as a means to
produce pulp and fiber. He savs that
fewer trees would need to be cut down
if t~e Northwest raised its fiber locally,
on small farms, in conjunction with
food crops and commodity crops for
export.
Relating farms problems to problems
of violent conquest, Oerther says, "Our
whole culture has been severely
depleted of its natural and national
resources because we've essentially
been in a state of war for the last 50
years.
"Every peasant in the world knows
that you can't farm when there's a war
on," he continues. "King George the
Fifth wants us to be _policemen of the
world. Wesend$4 to WashingtonD.C.,

and get $1 back," and have to fight for
that, he complains.
Libertarians renounce the use of
violence as a means to attain social and
political goals, either next door or on
the opposite side of the globe. Oerther
sums up this party policy by explaining,
"The paramilitary, hierarchical,
totalitarian,
power-based,
domineering, death-worshiping
culture, you know, we have to grow
out of that- it's time.

"King George
the fifth wants
us to be the
policemen of
the world. "
"Franklin Roosevelt said that we
have nothing to fear but fear fear itself,
"Oerther recalls, "But (the cartoon strip
character) Pogo was more correct when
he said that we have met the enemy,
and he is us-or is it U.S.? You can read
that either way," he points out.

Interim V-P believes in the value of each individual
Says ASLCC Interim Vice
President Maya Thomas,
speaking of herself, "This little
girl wanted to save the world,
and a part of her still does."
Thomas is filling the VP
position in the absence of Sione

Clothing Exchange closets second-hand .apparel
by Chris Prather
Torch Staff Writer

Still not sure what you' re going to be for Halloween? Try the
LCC Clothing Exchange.
Says exchange spokesperson Denyce Ward," If you're looking
for that last minute Halloween costume, you just might find
what you're looking for at the Clothing Exchange."
Operated by Campus Ministry, the Clothing Exchange is one
service that not many LCC students are even aware of.
Since 1974, the Clothing Exchange has provided men's,
women's, and children's clothing and also miscellaneous
household items free of charge for students and staff members at
LCC.

Says Ward, "We would just like to open our doors to the
campus and make people aware of what a beneficial service the
Clothing Exchange is for LCC."
The Clothing Exchange offers many opportunities to "get
acquainted" by hosting an open house or a clothing drive each
month, according to Ward.
"I'd like to invite people to come up and get acquainted with
us or just browse," she says. 'We will also accept donations at
that hme or at any time:·
According to Ward, the Clothing Exchange is operated on
donationsand thatitemsarereceived intermittently-sometimes
as much as three to four times a week. Selections range from
vintage clothing to new i terns.
Articles that don't appear to move are "recycled" and then
sent to other charity organizations such as Good will, St.Vincent
DePaul, and Whitebird.
The Exchange is open Monday-Friday, 8 a.m.-5 p.m. and is
located upstairs in the P.E. Building in room 301.
People are allowed to take up to 10 iterns per visit. For further
information, contact the Campus Ministry office at ext. 2814.

Former Cultural Director addresses Senate
by John Unger
Torch Staff Writer

The Oct. 22 ASLCC Senate
meeting was highlighted by an
address from Rico Perez, 198889 ASLCC Cultural Director
and organizer of the first
King
Luther
Martin
Celebration, commending the
continuation of the MLK event.
However, Perez said that
more direct action needs to be
taken by people to help solve
as
such
problems
homelessness, child abuse,
homophobia, racism, and hate
crimes toward women, among
other issues.
"This might be fun, right
here,"Perez said, referring to
attending college, ''but when
you get a way from this
environment and get out into
the real world and start seeing
and experiencing these things,
I hope that you'll want to do
something more about it."

the march was assured with a
full Senate vote of "Aye."
In other business, the
StudentOrganizationofMultiEthnicity (SOME) club,
formerly the International
Student Club, was ratified and
granted $50 in initial funding
from the Senate.

Omogrosso announced a voter
turn-out tax base promotion
rally, including speakers and
possibly a skit by Performing

Arts, at noon on Nov. 5 in the
cafeteria.
The next ASLCC Senate

meeting is at 3 p.m. in the
Administration building
Boardroom on Monday,
October 29.

Club Advisor Mason Davis
said the club is dedicated to
"valuing any individual and
their culture, regardless of
where they come from."

The Senate allocated $500
for a scheduled series of
lectures by campus artists.
Responding to ASLCC
Treasurer Laura Rodger's
question of other possible
sources of funding, Art Gallery
Director Harold Hoy said that
he has written four grants for
speakers and has received
some of them while being
turned down by others.
ASLCC agreed it might offer
more funding at a later date.

Citing the rise of white
supremacy groups in Oregon,
but also a raised sense of
concern for human rights,
Perez, who currently works
with the National Association
for the Advancement of
Colored People (NAACP),
said, "We're butting heads."

The Senate voted to jointly
fund, to the tune of $500, the
fourth year of the MultiCulturalCenter/ ASLCCOpen
House, which is preceded by a
week of presenting arts, crafts,
and wardrobes of various
cultures.

The NAACP and the
Homeless Action Coalition are
organizing a food drive for bulk
food items which will be
gathered and sent to kitchens
that feed groups of needy
people. The drive will
culminate with a city-wide
march on Jan. 18, involving
students from Springfield,

there's a 5 percent sales tax, you pay $1.05, I pay $1.05. Now that's
regressive, l should pay more. Why? I make more. That's exactly what's
going on now in the national congress, whether we're going to have a
regressive income tax system, or progressive income tax system.

PEtER SORENSON-

Torch: WHAT ABOUT THE COMMUNITY? HOW IS IT GOING TO
EFFECT THE COMMUNITY?
Sorenson: One of the effects on the community willbe unavailability of
services. We won'tbe able to provide as many sections of the <:ollege
transfer classes, and we wo1,1't be able to provide the enrollment in the
(vocational) c!asses. So that will be a restrlction,an~ that~ill really aff~t
the people who are, ofcourse, least able to absorb this; people who have •
been thrown out of their jobs, ~ple that are in a transition in their lives.
Torch: DO YOU FEEL THAT IT'S FAIR TO ASK THE VOTERS TO
PAY MORE PROPERTY TAXES?

Sorenson: No, I don't. (But) I think that it's less fair to tell them that
withoutthis increase in property taxes that we can do the same. We can't.
We need the money. So, do I think it's fair that we support the college by
property taxes and should they pay more, the answer is no, I don't think
it's fair. But, the question is I don't have anyth~ to do with the setting
of the method by which public education in Oregon is funded. I only
know that we get whatever the legislature can give us ... so what's left?'
Tuition and grants and property taxes: The vast majority of which, is
property taxes. So unless there is some kind of change, then the public
should know this ... Whatwehavetodeal withisthat'stheonlymethod
thatwehaveanycontrolover~So,ifwedon'tgetartyadditionalrevenue
from the state, and we don't get any additional revenue from the federal
government ... we can either sock it to the students and raise their tuition,
therebycausingnotonlyadropoffinincome because we price ourselves
out of the market, but also our mission is to help people, not to make
money. So our mission would be compromised by increasing (tuition).

Torch: WHAT DO YOU SEE AS THE MOST IMPORTANT SINGLE
REASON FOR THE PUBLIC TO VOTE .FOR LCC?
•• Sorenson: I think the most impcu:tant reason to vote for this tax base
•election is that the college needs the money and can't get it from any other
source. We need the money to continue what we're doing, and we're
doing a lot of good things. Most crucial right now is the whole issue of the
retraining of our local work force in light of the changes in our economy.
Second tothatiscontinuingour.mi$ionofprovidingaffordableeducation
for students desiring to obtain four..year college degrees.

Torch: WHAT CANW~ DO TO :MAKE THE COMMUNITY AWARE
OFWHATtrIS GOINGTOLOSEIFLCCISNOTHEREFOR THEM?
Sorenson: Most people probably don't know that LCC is one of the top
20 community colleges in the nation. Most people probably don't know
that you can go to LCC to learn to become a joumalist, or an actor, or a
, technician ... outside of what people might call learning a trade or quote
unquote getting a college transfer curriculum. So, I think that part of it is
. just getting.people to come out there and seeing what's available ...
'

''We need tbe money

to continue
what we 're doing."
Torch: AND YOU SAID THAT YOU SEE LCC'S MISSION AS

O

HELPING PEOPLE.
Sorenson: Sure ... and having the opportunity to gain educational

S

experience~ And could we do it with less money? I think the answer is
yes. But not as well. The six board members (in support) are putting (the
tax base) out to tell people that we' re going to have to cut this budget if
we don't get this money ... We have the end of our serial levy ... and we
have a tax base that's IO years old. We have no other appreciable sources
of revenue. State revenue has-generally been 30 percent in recent years .
.. where else are we going to get this money. The answer - property
taxes. If we don't get it, then we're going to do some serious,pitting...

tradition in volleyball and her
job is to help them develop a
winning attitude.
Because Weischedel has
been on winning teams in the
past,and knows how satisfying
it is, she admits that this year
has been frustrating.
''They are nice girls, but they
don'thavewhatittakestofight
within themselves. At least, not
vet."
To help improve individual
confidence and development,
W eischedel and Head
Volleyball Coach Lisa
Youngman, assign weekly
goals to each player.
The goals must be realistic,
yet are necessary for
improvement, she says.
"Goals give the girls
something to shoot for. I have
already noticed a change in a
lot of the players. They have
confidence in themselves that
they would never have had
before."
Weischedel's interests
outside of LCC include playing
in a city volleyball league and
looking for a job.
"It's time to move on," she
says. "I need a job that pays a
little more and my life would
be much easier."

LCC sweeps to victory
The LCC Volleyball Team won for only the third time this
season with a convincing three-game home-court sweep of the
Western Baptist JV on Oct. 24.
In the non-conference romp, Sara Murphy and Shawna
Templeton combined for fourteen aces and Sharin Armantrout
added nine kills as the Titans won in a fine offensive effort 15-0,
15-1 lnd 15-13.
11Sharin' s getting stronger and better with every match," says
Coach Lisa Youngman. "She really likeshittingthe ball and feels
happy with her improvement."
Youngman says that she was encouraged by her players'
sense of intensity despite the fact they were playing a weaker
team.
"Sara and Shawna didn't let up and the team did what they
had to do to win."
Youngman is also pleased with the continued improvement
of team captain Michelle Tuers."She seems to be getting a better
overall understanding of what she needs to do to help the team
and of the game itself."
The win improved LCC' s overall record to 3-11.
In earlier matches, the Titans were defeated in conference
play at home by Clackamas Community College on Oct. 19, and
to Linn-Benton CC, at Al}?any, the following day.
"One of their players had 17 kills in three games and we just
couldn't stop her," says Youngman of the games at Clackamas
CC. ''We worked all wee_k on ways to stop her but when it came
time to do it, we were unable to." The Titans lost the match in
three straight games 5-15, 11-15 and 11-15.
At LBCC, the Titans took their match to five games before
losing 15-6, 10-15, 10-15, 15-5 and 11-15.
"We were pretty evenly matched with them," says Youngman.
"But they won because they wanted to win the last game more
than we did."
The two losses dropped LCC' s conference record to 1-9. The
next Titan home game will be on Oct. 31 at 7 pm.

Brandy Allen is one-woman cross country team
by Scott Conrad
for the Torch

At LCC the Women's Cross
Country Team is what you
might call " A one woman
show, 11 literally. Her name is
Brandy Allen.
A first year student, Allen is
the "team's"only member, but
she says the situation is "not so
bad."
She competes against other
women in meets, but trains
with the LCC men's team. 11 I
like it. I run with the guys, 11 she
laughs. "They really push me
to keep up with them in
practice. I just concentrate on
the backs of their shirts and
run as hard as I can. I think it
makes me work a lot harder. 11
This year's women's team
was nearly nonexistent. " I
wasn't so sure I wanted to run,
"says Allen. 11 A friend of mine

who attends Lane told me
about it and talked me into
coming out. At the time, I had
no idea there weren't any
women on the team. I decided

to come out and I'm glad I did.
Everyone is very nice. "
Athletic Director Bob Foster
says that every school in the
NWAACC
(Northwest
Athletic Association of
Community
Colleges)
conference is having trouble
recruiting women for cross
country this year. He says
neither
Linn-Benton
Community College nor
Umpqua Community College
has a full- squad. The only "
bright spot" in the conference
is Clackamas Community
College, whichhasafull-team.
"It's just plain hard to get
women runners straight out of
high school," Fostersays. "Last
year at LCC, there were no
runners. On the other hand, in
1988 LCC had a full team. "
The

PE fees increase by 1/3 in 1990
by Kelley Egre
Torch Staff Writer

As of Fall Term 1990, LCC
students who were enrolled in
certain physical education
courses were charged a fee of
$12, an increase of $4 over the
previous year.
Bob Creed, Health and PE
Department chairperson, says
there was a definite need for
the increase in fees from
participating students. The

prt:=vious fee of $8 had been in
existence for about ten years
previous to this term.
''We were not keeping up
with the increasing costs of
clothing," says Creed.
"Considering we supply
. everything but shoes to the
students, we are only able to
sustain our inventory for so
long."
Creed stresses that the fee
increase does not apply to all
PE classes.

Only the specific activity
courses which provide clothing
have been affected by the
change. Those students
involved in specialty classes,
such as Bowling or Diet/
Weight Loss classes, do not
have to pay the extra fee.
So far, according to Creed,
the fee increase has not been a
problem for those affected.
"There have been no
complaints," Creed claims, "at
least none that I know of."

LarryCalloway." Lori Heldt,
(the 1989 coach)didn't have a
lot of time to spend on
recruiting because she was
enrolled in graduate school. It
just wasn't a top priority."
Despite the fact that the
women's team will not score
as a team this year, Calloway
and Foster remain optimistic,
11 Next year we'll have a fullteam, 11 Calloway anticipates.
11 We've got a good group of
kids (the men's and women's
team combined ) , this year. I
think Brandy will do really .
well. She's got a very up-beat
attitude about things and
seems to be very happy about
the situation she is in. 11

Asforthefuture,Fostersays,
"we have a little money in the
budget for recruiting, and next
year we'll get some women out
for the team. We have our eye
on a few for next year, so I
think we'll be okay.
11As for now, we have all our

A lot has been said about Now William, a quartet who
emerged from Eugene's underground in the spring of 1990. If
you'veeveroverheardanyonetalkaboutthemyou'veprobably
picked up words like "unique," "original," and "excellent."
Now William's sound is not one idea set to music, nor is it a
sound that you could copy. It's the individual ideas of each
member that weaves itself together, constructing a creative wall
of sound, full of traditional folk and progressive rock with a
swirling overtone of a violin.
Now William has been growing in popularity and gaining
interest with audiences across a broad musical spectrum since
their first show at the local tavern Max's. They have made quite
a name for themselves, playing at the W.O.W. Hall, Max's, and
various locations in Portland.
Their live shows should not be missed. Charlie Mclain's
pulsing bass lines along with Adam Glouger's heavy
drumming tie into John Cluff's constant syncopated guitar
rythms while the melodies of Dave Krueger's violin dives
in and out of any spot in the song it can. On stage, the four
work together, improvising and reconstructing their songs
from the originals, something a lot of bands seldom do.

photo by Erin Naillon

Students Valerie Stevens and Amanda Coleman act out a scene from "No Exit."

"We structure our sounds in a W3Â¥ that is a challenge to us
and keeps us alive on stage," says Glouger.
In the six months they've been together, their sound has
matured from the basic "same sound through the whole song''
style to a more diverse sound where the group is dynamically in
touch with each other. Says Cluff, "We are just beginning to feel
comfortable with each other knowing we can go on stage, play
a set that is not only tight, but also full of improvising and know
we can pull it off."
The singing and song writing is shared by all the members,
adding to their sound a variety of personal expressions and
constant change. It is because of each member's tastes in music
and musical background that this sound is achieved.
"It's the unique combination of our individual talents that
creates our sound," Cluff says.
In the future, Now William would like to cut an album, but
nothing has come up yet. Until then, they are content playing
gigs around the Northwest, gaining respect from followers and
other bands.
If you would like to check out this group who believes in an
honest approach to music, Now William will be appearing
Saturday, Oct. 27, with The Killing Field and Prairie School at the
W .O.W. Hall at 8th and Lincoln. Doors open at 9:00.

'No Exit' to open Nov. 2
by Tracy Brooks
Torch Entertainment Ed{tor

"No Exit," a student directed and
produced play by French Playwright JeanPaul Sartre, will open at Lane Community
College Performing Arts Nov. 2 at 8 p.m.
The play will run on Fridays and
Saturdays, Nov. 2, 3, 9, and 10 in the· Blue
Door Theatre, where many student
productions have been staged in the past.
The play will be directed by student
Michael D. Sorenson, with Peter Braun
assisting. Lighting and set design will be
coordinated by student Richard MacKenzie,
and costumes coordinated by Instructor
Kathryn 0. Linn.
The cast includes Valerie Stevens as Inez,
Amanda Coleman as Estelle, Jason Bortz as
Garcin, and Jason Leith as Camarero.
"It's going to give me a lot of satisfaction
in knowing we did this ourselves," says

Editor's note: Luke Strahota frequents the underground
music scene and produces an undervound music magazine.
He covers the undergound scene for the Torch.

Sorenson of the studen ts' effort inputting on
"No Exit." "We came up with everything
and we're proud of it."
Sartre, a French philosopher, novelist, and
playwright, has influenced two generations
throughout the world with his existentialist
philosphy. He was awarded the Nobel prize
for Literature in 1964, but refused it.
"NoExit,"oneofSartre'sbestknownplays,
has been described by reviewers as a "taut
and absorbing narrative" about people
consigned to a unique kind of hell. They
gradually reveal their true characters and
past actions as they realize that they must
eternally judge each other and themselves.
Sartre's play attempts to provoke the thought
that from one's own mind there is no exit.

One man band, 'Fathom,' releases demo album in Eugene
by David Valdez
Torch Staff Writer

LCC student Stephan
Mendez is not your average
college musician. He lists
among his influences the like
of Skinny Puppy, SPK, and
Ministry. Fathom,Mendez' one
man band, and his influences
work in the genre industrial
music.

.

photo by Dana Krizan

Stephen Mendez's brand of industrial music is based on the
"negative fascination" of its listeners and is soon to be heard
on a forthcoming album.
Page 10

October 26, 1990

The Torch

Fathom has just released a
demo called "Songs from
Purgatory" that's available at
the Record Garden and House
of Records. Fathom also has an
album in the works under a
new label, Eternal Kin . .
At this time the album is
tenatively titled "No Fracture."
Both the demo and the album
are in the industrial style. If
your tastes run toward the
avant-garde, these recordings
are worth a look.

. Mendez says ind us trial music
is often maligned and obscure.
According to him, industrial
music is often used as a catch all term for bands of diverse
style. He feels that the genre
has become a dumping ground
for many diverse styles of
music.
The general term industrial
is used to refer to bands "with
a danceable beat and a hard
edge" that make intregral use
of synthesizers, says Mendez.
Groups like Depeche Mode,
Jesus and Mary Chain, and
some house music fall into this
definition. Mendez, however,
works in the "true industrial"
music that "has little musical
content." He samples sounds
on a keyboard sampler and
mixes the sounds with "a
danceable beat''. He feels his
music is the obscure and
maligned part of the genre,
Mendez says.

Mendez believes that "there
are around 20,000" devoted
fans of the genre. He says the
ind ustrial isn' taround to make
money. Rather, it is the cutting
edge of experimental music
thatexiststo"shakepeopleout
of their complacency" and
create true expression of
emotion through sound.
Mendez believes the
attraction to industrial music
comes from "negative
fascination." People hear the
music and are pulled in because
of the strange sounds and
feelingsitevokes,saysMendez.
The style lends itself to
performance art. It is in this
direction that Mendez sees
himself heading. "I would like
something that sounds
completely different (than
whatisavailabletoday)."Heis
currently planning a move to
Seattle to further his audience
and explorenewopportunities.
