No. 22

Board of Ed adopts tuition rate proposal
by Mary Browning
Torch Associate Editor

The LCC Board of Education approved an "innovative" proposal to charge students per credit hour,
revoking the policy of not charging tuition beyond 12
credits per term.
After much discussion, the board decided in a
four-three vote to approve a tuition schedule which
will charge:
• students age 62 and over $11.50 per credit hour
(S0percentof theregular$23 per registered credit tuition) and $0.68 per non-registered class hour (50
percent of the $1.37 per class hour tuition);
• out-of-state and international students $88 per
registered credit;

• in-state students $23 per credit hour for each
registered credit;
• $1.37 per class hour for community education
classes, rescinding the former $276 per term cap on
tuition; and
• $39 per class, or $312 per term, for high school
completion students.
According to Math Department Head Torn
Reimer' s figures, only 30 percent of all registered
credit students take 12 or more credits per term, and
will be affected by the changed schedule.
The board expressed concerns that part-time students might be subsidizing full-time students' tuition.
The former tuition schedule, said President
Moskus, was "not equitable as far as full-time and

part-time students are concerned."
Calling the new schedule "innovative" for community colleges in Oregon, Board Chair Jim Pitney
commended the committee for its proposal.
"We hope," he said, " (the decision) will free classes
and cut down on post-registration confusion."
He also said that he felt the board vote was a close
one, because of concerns for the impact of the new
schedule on vocational tech programs, Cooperative
Work Experience (CWE), and senior students.
Comments from the members of the audience that
many degree programs require students to take more
than 12 credits per term in order to graduate in two
years, concerned board members. Potential reperTurn to Board, page 7

Awareness day

"Listen carefully ... can you understand it?

Is this an excerpt from a spy novel or someone

"(ESL Day) is
LionTos important," says
instructor
Demetri Liontos,
"because in this county, this community, we are
getting more and more non-native speakers. We
have to serve this population. Because of their
numbers, they're going to be more and more
i!]lportant to this community."
Games and dramatic performances are
planned, as well as a bake sale, singing, poetry
readings, and art displays. The performances are
scheduled for 11 :30 a.m. to 1 p.m., and 5:30 p.m.

Visitors can play two games especially chosen
for ESL Day. The first challenges listeners to
identify 21 languages, each representative of a
native language of an ESL student.
The second game asks players to identify the
flags of different nations.
ESL instructors and students will be on hand
during the celebration to answer questions.
This term, ESL has 11 instructors and almost
300 students from 35 different countries and
representing 21 different languages.
According to Liontos, the program consists of
about one-third Asian peoples, one-third
Hispanic peoples, and the other third is made up
of peoples of other nationalities.
Liontos says that ESL is more than just a
language program. It helps newcomers to the
community integrate better with the culture and
the community.

Fired chair finds success in Corvallis

Flight school 'off the ground'
by Devan C. Wilson
Torch Editor

Located in Corvallis, it is currently training 25 Japanese and 15 domestic flight students. It also provides
full aviation service, including fuel and equipment, and
air taxi service.
Avia Flight Services, the flight school started by the
former chair of LCC' s Flight Technology Department, is
more than off the ground - it's experiencing growth as
both a flight school and a business.
Terry Hagberg, who was fired from his post at LCC
in August, 1990, following a four-month independent
audit of the program, coupled with the college's own
investigation, says "We're very happy now."
The "we" Hagberg refers to are former LCC Chief
Flight Instructor Ron Gustafson, who is a partner in the
firm, and 12 former LCC Flight Tech Staff members,
now employed at Avia.
Hagberg, whose contract allotted a six-month reas-

signrnent before his firing, and Gustafson resigned frorrl
their posts at LCC, clearing the way for operations at
Avia to begin Dec. 1, 1990.
Hagberg says Avia is currently operating at 50 percent of capacity, "which feels very comfortable," he
.
says.
''We hope this continues to be a growing operation,
of course."
Avia is under contract to train Japanese flight students for Kawada Industries, a Japanese firm which
previously contracted with the Hagberg-led LCC Flight
Tech Department.
"The Kawada contract is the mainstay of the program," Hagberg says.
Kawada terminated its contract with the college Dec.
1, 1990, citing "recent events" as the cause for the pullout.
KawadaGeneralManagerTommyNaritomi told the

When the Board of Education went shopping for a
president in the winter 1989, it made itdearitwas seeking,
among other things, someone who would recognize the
value of shared governance.''
Jerry Moskus was that ma11. But his arrival at LCC did
not mean the simultaneous arrival of shared governance.
Both the board and .Moskus possessed. insight. Ihey
realized a system of shared governanc,e - a syste~ in
which all people affected by a policy decision would have
input in the decision making procedure - would need
constant refining as it was implemented.
At its March 13 meeting, the board of educ~tion took
positive steps in refining shared governance afLCC.
Here's the scenario:
Up for board approval was a proposal.1 submitted by the
Tuition committee to charge for all creditsinwhichstudents
enroll, rather than charging for only the first 12 credits, as
is currently the case.
In attendance on that March evening were representatives of senior citizen students, and international and outof-statestudents, whowouldbeaffededbyapprovalofthe
proposal.
These representatives, including International Student
Counselor MasonDavis,voiced objections totheproposal,
and objection to the lack of input from senior and international students while the proposal was beingd.rafted by the
committee.
After lengthy discussion, the board essentially said,
''We, the board, are here to make decisions, and not to
engage.in debate."
Sure,theboardengagesindebate,butitfeltthatprelimi- •
nary debate had not been completed. The board realized,
that shared governance had not been thoroughly exercised
in this case.
.
The board returned the proposal to the committee, with
instructions from the board torecruitrepresentatives from
specific student groups affected by the proposed tuition
changes.
So.1 kudos to the board. Not only did it insist on shared
governance in the development of the new .tuition policy,
it sought shared governance from the.ranks of students.
The committee gathered further input, and the board
approved the proposal at the April 10 board meeting (see
related story, page 1).
This action is not an indicator that shared governance is
a consistent reality at LCC. It does, however, demonstrate
the board's commitment to refining and instilling a system
of shared governance that works for LCC.

Twenty years
of OSPIRG
To the Editor,
This April marks an important date in history of student
activism in the state of Oregon.
Twenty years ago on the University of Oregon campus a
new student organization was
formed. Its name is The Oregon Student Public Interest
Research Group, more commonly known as OSPIRG. On
April 16 we are celebrating the
twentieth anniversary of the
start up of this organization.
At Lane we are celebrating the
first year of our local chapter.
Over the past twenty years
OSPIRG has concentrated on
the issues that are of concern to
everyone. Some of these include Environmental, Consumer rights, and social justice
concerns. On this campus we
are proud of the things that we
have accomplished in our first
year: including getting a recycling program started, organizing a successful voter registration drive, hosting several
educational forums, and orchestratingthe hunger cleanup
that will occur on April 13.
OSPIRG is an organization
that is for all the students. I am
a conservative student. I feel
that these issues are human
issues, not liberal or conservative issues. Anyone who wants
to can get involved and I encourage people to do so. I became active when I looked
twice while passing an OSPIRG
table. Come to our office or
come to the 20th anniversary
celebration and start asking
about what we do. You may
find something that may interest you.

K-9s justified
Editor's note: this letter was
edited for size to comply with
Torch guidelines for letters to the
editor.

To the Editor,
Everyday a crime is committed in the United States. Itis
also one of the biggest problems that police departments
in the U.S. face in the course of
the officer's daily duty routine.
Sometimes a suspect will try
to elude police capture for his
or her criminal act, but the
police have imported some

new tools on the job. They've
gotten help from canines (K-9).
These smart animals are
trained overseas in Germany
before they are imported to the
U.S. to various law enforcement agencies around the
country.
Most dogs are used for the
purpose of tracing a suspect's
path from the cnme scene to
the spot of hiding.
On March 27, 1991, Eugene
Police Officer Jack Patrick and
hisK-9 partner, "Bronco" went
to the scene of a stolen vehicle
that was taken from the Eugene Hilton parking garage.
Bronco led them to the top of
South Willamette street, where
two male suspects were hiding
from police for the alleged
crime.
One of the suspects gave up
after the warning was given by
Patrick, but the other suspect
didn't think anything would
happen if the dog was released.
But something did happen.
Bronco bit the suspect in the
throat while the suspect was
still hiding in the brush.
Today, that suspect, Randall
Blake Van Camp, 19, is still in
Sacred Heart Hospital, after
receiving bite wounds from the
K-9. Police say they will not
charge Van Camp with any
crime until he is discharged,
but they are still investigating
him in connection with the car
theft.
K-9s are saving the taxpayers' money- in the overtime
costs of officers, whom might
have taken all night to search
for the two suspects if the K-9
program hadn't been in effect
in Eugene.
The K-9s are a lifesaver to
the men and women in uniform, who go out on the streets
of Eugene day and night to
answer our calls for help. If the
Eugene Police Department
didn't have the dogs today, an
officer may have gotten killed
in the line of duty.

Should Los Angeles Police Department Chief Daryl Gates be held accountable for the

"Absolutely. I believe a
person in his position
should know what the
quality of service that
they are doing in public
when they are making
arrests and keep tabs
on that if there are any
problems, and be
especially attentive to
any racial situations that
are going on."

Political Science
"Obviously I think he
should be, because the
manager of anything or
the captain of anything
or the leader of anything
has to be ultimately
responsible for his
subordinates' actions,
because if he's not, who
is?"

Undecided
"Somewhat, but not
entirely. I think that the
officers should lose
their badge for a certain
amount of time. It was
not Chief Gates doing
the beating ... the
officers did ... They
should be accountable
for their own actions."

General Education
"I think if he knew
something about it,
definitely. If he had
control of the situation
and didn't take control,
definitely. But, if he had
no idea it was going on,
then no. But I think
probably yes."

Accounting
"Yes. I think that the
attitudes of Gates
definitely reflect the
actions of his officers on
the streets or else he
would not be police
chief."

Computer Science
"No, I don't think he
should be held accountable for them, unless he
condones them. He was
not the one committing
the crimes."

Take victimless crime off the books
Victimless Crime: What falls
into this category?
Oregon recently passed a
seat belt law that could save
money and probably will save
lives. However, in passing this
new regulation, Oregonians
step towards stifling their own
freedom.
Actually wearing a seatbelt
is not the issue. I wear mine.
Yet is it wrong to use the power
of the state to impose regulation as to how other people
choose to live if they are not
hurting anyone else? I say such
"victimless crimes" take away
the freedoms our constitution
guarantees.
To solve problems, we often
overlook possible avenues
such as preventative measures
and education. We can deal
with theproblemmoredirectly
rather than punishing people
for the end result. In the case of
seat belts, the problem is in the
design of the car, not in individuals. There are other way3
to remedy the seat belt question.
A conservative and sensible
way of dealing with victimless
crimes is to avoid problems in
the first place-in other words,
deal with cause, not with effect. Airbags and other passive
restraints on cars would be a
step towards decreasing deaths
and injury without increasing
regulation.
Requiring financial responsibility for driving a vehicle is
another regulation that makes
a lot of sense, yet to mandate a
law that requires insurance in
many cases is unjust.
• LCC student Travis
Glover, when asked about

mandatory insurance, responded: "It's a scam, because
people who have minor infractions often pay the same high
premiums as those who have
committed major traffic offences."

there should be no crime.

from
the
heart
jim jarboe
• Since the early '70s, the
state of Michigan has had nofault insurance. This method
of dealing with the insurance
question takes the question of
who will pay out of the accident scenario. No matter who
is at fault both parties are covered by their own insurance.
• "Premiums need to reflect
the individual' sdriving record,
not his/her age, type of car or
other classification which insurance companies use to set
premiums," says LCC student
Jeanette Nadeau.
Often, premiums do not
fairly reflect a person's ability
to drive safely. For instance, if
you' re a teenage male and
under 21, your rates would be
high at the very least. The type
of car is also a major factor in
rate adjudication.

No-fault insurance makes
more sense to me. Regardless
of your age, typeofcar,ordriving history, you are covered in
the event of an accident. This
does not mean negligent drivers would get off the hook for
their actions. They would be
responsible.
It is better to deal with a
problem at its source. As far as
insurance is concerned, we
need to implement a no-fault
system that is paid for out of
taxes on the purchase of cars,
from licence fees, and from
other automobile-related expenses.
To defray the medical cost,
we need to make our medical
profession more accessible and
bring down the astronomical
costs of basic health care. In
short, we should take victimless crimes off the law books
and put our time and money
into education, not persecution.

tudents representing community colleges from all
over Oregon, including 10 from LCC, met in Salem
on April 4 to rally support for adequate college
funding.
The Community Colleges of Oregon Student
Associations and Commissions (CCOSAC) intended to
present a legislative platform supporting full funding of
community colleges for the coming school year.
More than 100 students addressed the likely problems
of lost funding as a result of voter approval last November
of Ballot Measure 5. Although the measure requires the
state general fund to replace lost revenue to public schools
and community colleges, in light of the property tax limitation, many programs are in danger of being cut.
One of the key requests of students was full funding out
of the state's general fund, and not from program cu ts and
reductions in financial aid or grants, according to ASLCC
President Michael Omogrosso.
"In order to give us the money we need," says Omogrosso, "the state could be tempted to dip into grants or
Lfinancial] aid (monies)."
Omogrosso, a speaker at the event, stresses the word
"community" in community college. "Community colleges are the key to Oregon's future."
Citing the fact that community colleges train much of
the work force, provide the first two years of a four-year
degree for many students, and have life-enrichment programs, Omogrosso feels that students shouldn't have to
keep replacing lost funding out of their own pockets.
Also speaking from LCC was Dana Edmonds, a dislocated timber worker now studying computer programming.
There are concerns that if the legislature does not replace lost funding, dislocated workers already enrolled in
re-training programs may not be able to finish, according
to Edmonds. If this happens, he believes the money the
state has spent thus far will be wasted. "I can't support a
familyandgotoschoolfulltimewithoutsomekindofhelp.
"I told them we need to keep these programs going,
because the last thing we need is a bunch of people with 30 or 40 college credits out working for $6 an hour," says
Edmonds.
Dislocated student funding "never was adequate," adds
Omogrosso. "There's more [dislocated workers] out there
than we have money for already."
The delegation from LCC was also able to hand-deliver
64 letters in support of full funding to the offices of state
legislators. The letters were in response to a letter-writing
campaign at LCC to voice student concerns about budget
reductions.
In addition to the discussions on budgetary shortfalls,
the group addressed child-care needs at the community
college level and increased access to the schools for all
members of the community.

S

The April 8 ASLCC Senate meeting focused
on the success of theApril4CommunityCollege
Lobby Day in Salem and preparations for the
upcomingstudentgovernmentelectionsinMay.
ASLCC President Michael Omogrosso said
that 10 LCC students hand-delivered 64 letters
to the staff of state legislators on April 4. The
letters supported maintaining the state level of
funding for LCC in the wake of Ballot Measure
5.

The group did not have time to do any specific
lobbying, Omogrosso said, but they did have
lunch with LCC President Jerry Moskus while
in Salem.
About 100 students representing nine of the
state's 13 community colleges attended the
event, he said.
ASLCC Vice President Maya Thomas said
that April 17 is the filing deadline for students
interested in running for student government
positions. Campaigning will begin on April 22,
and elections will be held the first part of the
second week in May.
"Just tell your friends-tell everybody you

Business chair follows
wife, LCC benefits
by Robin Robbins

LCC's Business Department is the beneficiary of the Cagney
family's decision to relocate to the Eugene/Springfield area.
"I've always been supportive of my wife's career choic~s,"
James Cagney, chair of LCC's Business Department, stated ma
March 4 interview.
So when Dr. Patricia Cagney
joined a Springfield pediatrics
medical practice in August 1990,
her husband didn't hesitate to
leave his position in management

past responsibilities as undergraduate teaching, management training, product manager and
consultant.
'
When asked about his goals for LCC' s Business Department,
Cagney quickly identifies three priorities. .
.
• Refocus the business program to recogmze latest business
trends in management/employee relations and technology.
Cagney discussed the need for the employee of the future to
master not only the latest technologies, but to develop new
patterns of thinking.
"We need to foster independent thought, and encourage our
students to take responsibility for business decisions," Cagney
says. He believes employers will "almost always" respect an
employee's creative contribution.
Employees need to "make things happen, rat}:\er than allow
things to happen," according to Cagney.
Creative suggestions are often enc~urag~d by today's m~nagement, who may offer cash or prize mcentives to outstanding
employees.

Cagney himself was the recipient of the Tando_m Corp. s
Creativity Forum Award, ~hich i~ gi~e.n to recognize an employee who offers a suggestion which is Judged_ to be outstanding. Cagney received a cash award and a trip to corporate

SBDC responds to changing
economic environment
by Robin Robbins
for the Torch

Howmanydifferentjobsdoyou plan to hold
during your work-life? One? Five? Ten? Are
you prepared to switch companies, perhaps
even move out of state or across country every
five years to further your career?
As recently as 20 years ago, it was not unusual for a worker to spend an entire lifetime at
the same company, says Jane Scheidecker, director of LCC's Small Business Development
Center (SBDC). Scheidecker assumed her position as LCC's SBDC director in October 1990,
bringing to LCC almost twenty years of experience as a business entrepreneur, consultant and
instructor.
"But,by1985theaverageworkercouldexpect
to hold seven jobs during a lifetime," according
to Scheidecker, and, by 1990 that estimate had
jumped to an average of "13 or 14" jobs.
"Furthermore, the work force of the future
will have to be productive more quickly-will
have to be able to contribute more rapidly,"
Scheidecker continues.
Scheidecker states that the role of the SBDC
is to "deal with information and ideas. We
solicitideasfromourfacultyandstudents, which
we then use to expand and improve our educational offerings. We want to find the areas of
interest, then create new programs to serve
those needs."
Scheidecker identifies customer service training and education on business franchising as
two possibilities for new programs.
"Small business is the life-blood of our com-

munity," Scheidecker says on the role of SBDC.
"We (LCC's SBDC) want to be a good community citizen. We have a 'c~n-do' attitudean~are
capable of meeting any need of the b~sme~s
community. Don't look at (the SBDC) as fixed m
our role. Tell us what you need. We'll find a
way.
"The Oregon business community needs to
prepare for the 21st century. Weare not as well
positioned today to serve our customers as we
were in 1982," according to Scheidecker.
Scheidecker explains that during the recession of '82, the SBDC experienced a loss of
experienced faculty ~hich sti~l affects t~e
SBDC' s ability to provide education and traming in computer skills.
"In 1982, many of our clients were not computerized, but we had the staff available for
educationand training. Today,over90percent
of our customers are computerized, but w.e do
not have the staff to serve them," Scheidecker
says.
"But even without the staff we need, education is still our primary goal and mission,"
Scheidecker stresses. She describes the hypothetical situation where a business owner experiences difficulty understanding the profit and
loss (P&L) statement.
uwe need to overcome the intimidation factor," Scheidecker says. "Our customers may be
reluctant to ask for assistance. We can take
those numbers (from the P&L) and load them
into a software package that will help with
understanding the P&L, help (the business
owner) apply for a bank loan or talk to their
turn to SBDC, page 11

BureaucracieS~-··raCiSm~intertere ··with .Sti.Jdent
by John Unger
Torch Staff Writer

Steev Moore, an AfricanAmerican LCC student studying to be a teacher, says he feels
caught between extremes. He
appreciates the good fortune
of working with supportive
individuals within LCC's bureaucracy, but he is frustrated
by what he considers to be rigid
administrative policies.
Moore began applying to
LCC in April of last year. He
informed the college, he says,
that he needed all of the necessary financial aid application
forms mailed to him because
he would be spending the
summer in France.
Moore missed fulfilling the
"file complete" financial aid
deadline of July 25, he says,
because the college did not
inform him of the deadline.
This detail meant that he was
ineligible for Work Study
funds.
Linda DeWitt, assistant director of the college's Financial
Aid Office, declined to comment on Moore's financial aid
difficulties, saying that the
office never discusses indi vi dual records without that person being present.
Moore told the Torch last
week that when a student assumes he is following all the
guidelines and regulations, but
he gets no response, "this person is left to feel, more intensely, that they've been discriminated against because of
the color of their skin," Moore
says. "I'm not asking to be
given special treatment," he
adds. "I'm just asking to be
treated as a human being."
Moore began working as a
teacher during fall term in a
program at Willard/Eastside,
an Alternative Education Pro-

gram school. Moore's position
was arranged with the help of
Peggy Marston, a Cooperative
Work Experience coordinator.
The program targeted highrisk youth, and Moore filled
~he position with the help of

~

the school's principal, a community service coordinator,
and another teacher.
Moore was hired with an
understanding then that he
would receive work study
money from LCC in January.
He was paid out of Willard/
Eastside' s budget in the fall.
His award did not come
through, and the school could
not afford to continue paying
his wages.
Moore says that on his second day of teaching at Willard/Eastside, three parents
showed up to assist him. "I just

speak with me about what I
was doing here, what my background was and stuff.
"When we' re speaking of
education here, we're speaking of a black man in a classroom with a majority of young
white children who have never
in their lives had interaction
with a black person before,"
Moore says.
"It was very vital that I
stayed in that program," he
says. "Never once, do I think,
did they (LCC administration
and Financial Aid officials)
really stop to consider how
important it was that they do
everything possible to keep me
in," Moore says, asserting that
if they had, they could have
found a solution to the technical application problem.
Moore says when his workstudy money did not come
through in January, he began a
letter-writing campaign to LCC
President Jerry Moskus, Vice
President of Student Services
Bob Marshall, and Financial
Aid Administrator Linda Wadde 11 and assistant Linda
DeWitt, but he says initially no
one even responded.
Finally, when ASLCC President Michael Omogrosso sat

procedures, which he claims
were intended to push him to
the point of frustration, "So
they could go back to their daily
routine of pushing Ii ttle papers
and stuff."
Claiming that the college
administration is trying to push
the issue under the rug, Moore
says "I'm not an individual to
start something and then give
up just because I get frustrated."
However, Moore plans to
return to New York in the
summer to pursue his teaching
career.
Though not accusing LCC's
bureaucracy of acting out of
racial bias, Moore says that his
struggle for the funds he had
expected to receive caused him
to feel that he was being treated
more like a statistic than as an
individual person.
"In New York, I know what
I'm up against," he says. "In
Oregon, you have people who
appear, in every way, to be
very cool and liberal-minded.
But I can't find a job."
Moore says he has experienced blatant racism in Oregon at times, though not from
people in positions of power.
Shortly after he had arrived

School

in the state, whilestandingata
bus stop, he saw three white
men in a pickup truck staring
at him. They then threw cans at
him and drove away yelling
"Nigger!"
"I had never been called
'nigger,' " Moore says. "I felt
really bad for them. How did
they learn to hate someone
based on the color of their skin?
That behavior had to be taught
to them."
Often, while at LCC, Moore
says he will pass a group of
youngwhitemenand "there's
this loud, uproarious laughter,
you know, snickering and so
forth. It's pretty painful at
times."
Moore lamen ts that there is
little communication between
the people who attend events
like those sponsored by ASLCC
on Martin Luther King Jr.'s
birthday and the people who
perpetuate racism. He points
out that institutions such as
LCC have the responsibility of
fulfilling a role as the missing
link in awareness of racial tensions. Instead, he claims, the
college is often content to
"cover itself with a veneer of
diversity."
"People seem to think that
this country has grown from
the '60s to the '90s," Moore says.
"But blacks and Hispanics are
still fighting for their basic civil
and human rights."
Moore contends that this
continual repression plus the
white population's denial of
prejudices is causing many
black people, especially on the
East Coast, to subscribe to
Malcolm X's theory - that
there is no such thing as a nonviolent path to eliminating
deeply-rooted prejudices.
He says that his Oregon
experiences have led him closer
to that viewpoint, although he
has been resisting it for a long
time.
At this point, all Moore
expects is for the college to
validatewhathisproblem was.
He also alleges that his ability
to communicate across racial
lines and to dissolve stereotypical images of black people in
the minds of young white
people should be considered
as unique and valuable.
And, Moore says, the college administration should
• carefully consider the problems he encountered so that
future students do not suffer
the same difficulties.

firm's decision was the dismissal of Hagberg.
Speaking to the Torch from Kawada's U.S. headquarters in
Costa Mesa, Calif. on April 11, Naritomi said he is satisfied with
the services Avia is providing Kawada students.
"I understand everything is going fine," he says. Naritomi
receives reports on Avia's services from Hideo Ono, a Kawada
employee who works at Avia. Ono held a similar position while
Kawada was under contract with LCC.
Hagberg says he feels no animosity towards the college
despite his firing. "It was a good break," he says of his dismissal,
"a fresh start."
Hagberg appreciates the business atmosphere of Avia, and
being free of the "bureaucratic nature" of the college. "The
freedoms are tremendous," he says.
Editor's note: Next week the Torch will report-on LCC's Flight
Tech Department, and the effects of Hagberg's firing.

LCC batter watches strike go by during April 7 game against the Linfield College junior varsity team. Linfield won the game 7-0.

Weather, good pitching lead to Titan losses
by Robert Catalano
Torch Sports Editor

Bad weather and a lack of consistent pitching
playedhavocwiththeLCCbaseballteaminscheduled games April 6-11.
A scheduled Northwest Athletic Association of
Community Colleges (NW AACC) conference
game with Linn-Benton CC on April 6 was
cancelled because of rain.
It was the second consecutive NW AACC conference game the Titans had to reschedule because
of rain. An April 2 game against Mt. Hood CC was

also cancelled.
The Titans had to reschedule an April 7 game
against Lassen (Calif.) CC until Sunday, April 10
as the first game of a doubleheader with two separate teams.
Lassen scored all seven of its runs in the first
three innings to down LCC 7-0.
The Titans only managed to collect two hits in
the game and committed two errors.
In the second game, LCC scored five runs in the
first inning against the Linfield College junior
varsity team, but were unable to hold the lead and
lost 10-6.

Jeff Greene hit a firs tinning homer and finished
the game with three RBIs.
On April 9, rain once again forced LCC to readjust its schedule when a NW AACC game against
Clark CC had to be cancelled because of a wet field.
The cancelled game against Mt. Hood CC was
rescheduled for April 11 when the game, against

Reds and Cubs should be divisional champs
Another Major League Baseball season started on April 8
and at last count there were 26
separate magazines being sold
in the Eugene-Springfield area
devoted solely to previewing
the 1991 season.
Making predictions is an
inexact science to be sure, and
by the time next season rolls
around, readers of these magazines will probably forget the
inaccurate 1991 predictions of
these publications and purchase the same magazine with

the same faulty forecasts once
again.
True to the spirit of the
sports print media in the U.S.,
the Torch will make its 1991
predictions. However, we reserve the right todo this purely
in fun and free from the all encompassing profit motive.

better than third. In the offseason the Padres traded away
more than they got in return
and didn't fill the holes created
by the trades. However, with
Eric Show, the last of the John
Birchers, gone from the team,
the Padres can put racism and
politics aside and have some
good, clean Southern California yuppie fun.
• Escaping last place will be
the goal of the Atlanta Braves
in 1991 and theyprobablywill
achieve their aim. The Braves
acquired Terry Pendleton and
Sid Bream for the infield, and
may have found an outfield
diamond-in-the-rough in
(Neon) Deion Sanders. With
added speed in the lineup and
the maturity of its young pitching staff, Atlanta may surprise
a lot of teams. Fifth place will
be a good sfart for players on
this team to realize they can be
winners.
• The Houston Astros are
in their 30th season as a major
league baseball team and have
only one division title to show
for it. This season, they should
wind up dead last. They've
traded away their best hitters,
starting pitcher, and relief
pitcher in what management
calls a youth movement. It's
more like turning back the time
to 1962 when the team entered
the league. Maybe they will be

Track teams do well at Oregon City meet
by Robert Catalano
Torch Sports Editor

Fighting the wind and the
rain, the LCC women's track
team finished second and the
men's team third in a five-team
meet April 6, at Clackamas
Community College in Oregon
City.
Also competing were athletes from Grays Harbor CC,

Mt. Hood CC, GreenRiverCC,
and host team Clackamas.
"The weather was terrible
during the first part of the
meet," says Titan coach Larry
Callaway. "Our runners have
gotten used to fighting a head
wind close to the finish line."
Callaway says the final
scores were a little deceiving
because "Clackamas was able
to pick up a lot of points by

stocking each event with competitors."
"We've had some minor
injuries, so our team is a little
thin now," adds Callaway.
The Titan teams will compete on April 13, at the Mt.
Hood Relays in Gresham.
"We may not win the Relays," says Callaway, ''but we
should be competitive."

Predictions
National League East
• The Chicago Cubs may
win their first N.L. title since
1945 if the pitching staff stays
healthy, and both Dwight
Smith and Jerome Walton
bounce back from off-seasons.
This team is set at every position with a proven veteran,
except at third base, and acquired both Danny Jackson and
Dave Smith to bolster its pitching staff. The only thing working against the Cubs is tradition. Except for a division title
in the 80s, the Cubs have come
'up empty for 47 years.
• Adding speed and deleting some powerful whining
should help the New York
Mets hold onto second place in
1991. Vince Coleman and
Hubie Brooks will not replace
Strawberry's power, but both
players will provide leadership
and a winning attitude to a
team traditionally long on talent and short on stomach. If
pitchers Dwight Gooden and
Frank (Pay Me More) Viola
have strong seasons, the Mets
could challenge the Cubs for
the title.
• Contract squabbles and a
shallowly talented pitching
staff will prevent the Pitts-

burgh Pirates from returning
to the play-offs. The Pirates
signed white Andy Van Slyke
to the same amount of money
theyrefused to pay black Barry
Bonds and Bobby Bonilla. Not
only did Bonds and Bonilla
have better years, they are also
more durable, and Bonilla is
themostpopularplayeron the
team. It doesn't make sense.
Also, after Doug Drabek, the
Pirates have little or nothing
on their pitching staff. Dissension and lack of pitching will
doom the Pirates to no better

than third in 1991.
• The Montreal Expos are
the only team in the division
never to win a title. However,
this team's management has a

policy of spending Ii ttle on free
agen ts and trading a way highpriced talent. The Expos are
lucky to have Bob Rogers as
their coach because he has
taken Montreal teams less talented than divisional opponents and made them competitive. Predicting the Expos to
finish fourth is probably more
risky than picking Oakland to
wind up last; this team is always a surprise and consistently does more with less .
• The St. Louis Cardinals
not only lost Terry Pendleton,
Vince Coleman, Willie McGee
and Ken Dayly to free agency,
they also lost Whitey Herzog
as their manager. To say the

least, the Cardinals are in
trouble this year. The team has
only one legitimate power hitter, Pedro Guerrero, and absolutely no left-handed starting
pitchers. The one thing which
will prevent the Cardinals from
finishing last is speed on the
basepathsand theyhaveplenty
of it.
• ThePhiladelphiaPhillies
were lucky to finish fifth in
1990. The Phillies may be able
to score runs, but their pitching staff will allow quite a few
more. To give an example of
how bad the pitching staff
really is, in the off-season the
Phillies almost forced a team

to take Bruce Ruffin, lastyear s
number three starter, in order
to complete a trade. The other
team refused. Unless the Phillies trade one of their few top
players for some pitching, the
fans in Philadelphia may be
forced to suffer through an epidemic of apoplexy.

Karen Nelson and Alito Alessi of Joint Forces Dance
Company practice a routine.
by Tracy Brooks
Torch Entertainment Editor

Sharing weight, support,
balance, impulse and momentum - the nuts and bolts of
contact improvisation - it's
all in a day's work for Ali to
Alessi of theJointForcesDance
Company.
He describes contact improvisation as a dance form in
which two or more people
move in physical contact, maintaining a point of contact be-

tween them and the spontaneous movement in their own
bodies.
On Wednesday, April 17
through Saturday, April 20,
Alessi will coach LCC students
and faculty members in the art
of contact improvisation in an
ASLCC sponsored workshop.
"Its orientation is to find
what movement you have and
build from there ... it's about
really finding the quality and
sensation in whatever move-

mentyoudohave,"saysAlessi.
Dance has been neglected
as a cultural medium at LCC,
says ASLCC Cultural Director
Trish Rosewood. One of
Rosewood's campaign promises last spring was to bring
more dance events to LCC.
She says students have also
expressed a desire for a contact
improvisation workshop on
campus. Last term, Alessi
taught a one-day workshop on
the concept and students have
since expressed an interest to
ASLCC in bringing him back
for an in-depth session.
Rosewood says the workshop will act as a lead in to
Peace Week, April 22-27, as
well. "This kind of dance is
really conducive to good relations with people," she explains.
The workshop will begin
Wednesday,April 17,from3-5
p.minPE202.Buildingonskills
learned each day, it will run 35 p.m. Thursday and Friday,
wrapping up Saturday, April
20, 11 a.m.-1 :30p.m. Saturday's
workshop will take place in
the auxiliary gym..
Rosewood encourages
people to attend all four days
of the workshop, but says
Alessi will accommodate
people who attend only the last
fe'Y days of the wor½5hop.
The workshop is free to any
students or members of the
public who would like to attend. People wanting more information regarding the workshop or contact improvisation
should call Rosewood at
ASLCC, ext. 2330, or Alessi at
342-3273.

LCC catalogue sports new look·
selectedRubick'sdesignbecauseitwas"visually
stimulating. We liked his art." Dann describes
the work as colorful and attractive.

by Tracy Brooks
Torch Entertainment Editor

The 1991-92 LCC Catalogue will sport a new
cover idea this upcoming year: a lone figure
reaching for the stars in the business card design
of Graphic Design Coordinator Thomas Rubick.
Rubick says the design was inspired by a
favorite print of his in the Matisse collage, "The
Jazz Series," and employs simpler, more basic
shapes and colors.
"We think it'll be a really attractive cover,"
says Dann. "We were ... lucky to get him."
Rubick is a graduate of California State at
Long Beach, with a degree in English. He says
he is self-taught in the area of graphic design.
Diane Dann, associate director for institutional
advancement, says the catalogue editorial board

"We think it'll be a really
interesting cover."
Diane Dann
Designs for next year's class schedules have
been chosen, as well. Rubick' sad vanced design
class competed to win the chance to have a
design selected for one of four seasons. Heather
Bloom, Cathy Ritter, Doug Ferguson, and
Melody Freshour also submitted winning ideas
and received monetary prizes.

Women's Center presents video
Women and their quiltmaking in the 19th centurr will be the
subject of a video presentation and discussion Wednesday,
April 17 from noon to 1:30 p.m.
"Hearts and Hands: A Social History of 19th Century Women
and Quilts," isa video presentation which will examine the lives
and accomplishments of ordinary and often anonymous women
who used the quilting needle to speak to others and to posterity.
According to administrative assistant Patsy Raney in the LCC
Transitions to Success Program, the video presents quilts as
historical documents. She says women often stitched mosaics
into their quilts, says Raney, which chronicled personal events
as well as social events of the times.
Included in the video are women such as Harriet Tubman, a
leaderof the Underground Railroad, and Abigail Scott Duniway,
leader of the women's suffrage movement in Oregon.
Elizabeth Hoffman, a specialist in the cultural history of
textiles and a doctoral candidate at the University of Oregon,
will lead a discussion of the role of women and textiles in the 19th
century.
The event is sponsored by the Women's Program at LCC and
is made possible by the Oregon Council for the Humanities.

Cagney says it is too soon to see the full
effect of Measure S's revenue reductions on

5 is the property tax limitation which was

BecauseofMeasureS restrictions, Cagney
