4Here it all began. Two
buildings alone in a muddy
pasture. Some things have
remained the same since that
day 100 years ago: Conflict.
Dissension. Resolution.
Change. Through peaceful
and disruptive times, Deady
Hall has been an all-seeing
landmark watching from afar.
Today we celebrate college
days of yesterday, today and
tomorrow. We acknowledge
the past, but don't dwell on it,
for the fanfare and fireworks
are for the future. Perhaps
University students 100 years
from now will find what Paul
Simon has found: "After
changes upon changes, we are
more or less the same."

Fall. A new year. A new

Thank God it isn't raining.
/t's time to get outside. They
probably won't be doing any-
thing in class today anyway.
Out of state tuition is $703
and rising; in state is $216,
plus deposit! So much for so
little sunshine.

There's something magical
about snow. It transforms the
campus into a tranquil place
of beauty.
The city of Eugene goes
into a frenzy. Roads are
closed. Meetings and classes
are canceled. That is, can-
celed everywhere except at
the good old U of 0, where
even the library stays open.
"Advice is like snow;
the softer it falls,
the longer it dwells upon,
and the deeper it sinks
into the mind."

Eugene is the jogging cap-
ital of the world. Young, old,
short, tall, thin or fat: every-
one jogs. They run to Alton
Baker Park, across the foot-
bridge to Autzen Stadium or
up to Hendricks Park. Even in
the rain. Where ever there's a
beaten path, there's a jogger.

University's 12th president
Boyd's first year marked by ASUO battles
"I don't have much of a record
here at all. 1would hope that after
I'd been here a long enough time
to have compiled a record, that 1
would be well regarded . .. But
when students at the campus
already picture me as a racist and a
bigot-you know, a guy's got to run
awfully fast to catch up."-William
Boyd
William Beaty Boyd took the
reigns of the University as its 12th
president with a valid philosophy-
but one which also directly
contradicted that of the student
government.
Boyd emphasizes a university that
is first and foremost a place of
scholarly research: an environment
in which scientific and humanitarian
thought will flourish to benefit
society.
"In a research intensive university,
you get a certain spirit of
education-it's an inquiry-oriented
kind of education, as opposed to
just a synthetic or dissemination
form of education. For the
academically able and the
academically motivated student,
that's the finest educational
experience in the world."
And it has been Boyd's philosophy
that irked, irritated and ired the
Associated Students of the
University of Oregon (ASUO)-an
entity which sees education as a
consumer right; a trend particularly
strong in 1975-1976. The ASUO
conceptualized students totally
integrated into all University
decision-making processes.
Boyd countered their argument
saying, "I'm more faculty oriented
than student oriented. I believe
that students in a University that is
dominated by quality faculty who
are deeply involved in research and
in the advancement of knowledge
are the luckiest students in
American higher education. But
you get that kind of university by
not permitting students to govern it,
but by turning it over to the faculty.
"When students become involved
18 - pres. boyd
in a particular decision-making
body, power tends to move away
from that body," Boyd explained.
The former president of Central
Michigan University (CMU), Boyd's
history as an administrator is well
lauded. Prior to his six years at CMU,
Boyd served as vice-chancellor for
student affairs at the University
of California (UC) at Berkeley from
1966 to 1968. The South Carolina
native became mediator between
the UC administration and a hostile
student body. Students respected
Boyd at Berkeley as they did at
CMU (especially during the Vietnam
demonstrations and the Kent State
incident)-almost to the point of
legend.
"Because I was familiar with the
protests, I wasn't threatened by
them," Boyd said. "It was the
outside community that felt
threatened. And consequently at
Michigan, just by circumstance,
students viewed me as their
champion against a hostile outside
world."
Now Boyd turns to the "outside
community" of Eugene. He stressed
his presidency would be "far more
concerned with off-campus
problems" and mentioned
obtaining more money for the
University and "communicating
with the population in Oregon." His
high priority for fund-raising and
public relations is evident:
"I hate to put it crassly, but my
principle objective is to raise the
level of financial support. We're not
getting enough dollars from the
Legislature, but I think the
Legislature is probably genuinely
representative of the people; and if
we want a richer level of support,
the people of the state have to want
us to have it."
Some students disdained Boyd's
methods: straightforward politics,
candid emotions, inadequate
student input, blunt decisions.
ASUO officials were enraged when
he allocated $30,000 to aid the ailing
bottom-ten Duck football recruiting
program. Boyd believes good
athletics mean more money and
better academics.
Another sore festered as Boyd and
ASUO Pres. Jim Bernau battled
about student access to faculty
evaluations. The General Faculty
voted against the proposal and Boyd
considered the matter finished.
Bernau contended the Oregon
State Board of Higher Education
had left the issue to university
presidents-the ASUO would ask
Boyd for a final decision. He voiced
a resounding 'no.' The
confrontation ended with a watered
down version of the proposal
accepted stating the University
would provide course information,
but evaluations remained
inaccessible to students.
The problems between the ASUO
and Boyd arose from
communication breakdowns and
personality conflicts.
"Maybe we bring out the worst in
each other," Boyd said of he and
Bernau. "I certainly consider the
relationship to be an unsuccessful
one. I think that the administration
has been badly served by lack of
success in dealing with the ASUO,
and I think similarly that the ASUO
has not been well served by thei r
lack of success in dealing with me."
Bernau claimed that as Boyd
denied student requests he neither

exactly what they were thinking.
Berkeley prided itself on the fact
that people didn't mind being
abrasive with one another. There
was almost a zeal for it. And I picked
up some habits that I'll probably
have to give up."
The year stands marked with
much conflict and few solutions.
Boyd explained,"1 think that
circumstance has brought up a lot
of questions in a row that elicited a
'no' answer."
Though A5UO officials would
perhaps debate the fact, Boyd looks
at the year in an unthreatened light.
"1 haven't felt hostility from the
student body aside from the most
formal opposition of organized
groups. Everywhere I go I have the
feeling that I'm being warmly
received. 50 if the student body is
hostile toward me, then I would
have to say that they certainly don't
show it because that's not the

offered any alternative suggestions
to assist the AU50 in reaching its
goals. He also insisted Boyd refused
to take students seriously.
A case in point-the A5UO's
proposal for a McArthur Court
student governing board ultimately
responsible to the university
president. The two presidents
were unsure of each's meaning of
governance and advisory boards.
Boyd effectively squelched debate
of the proposal before the General
Faculty with the help of University
attorney Dave Frohnmayer. Boyd
convinced the members the
'proposal was "dangerously
worded."
But Bernau retorted anything
that "Iooks or smells like
governing board" to Boyd will never
get his approval.
However, Boyd saw the problem
as "stylistic. It was very much the
Berkeley style for people to say

Top men on the totem pole meet with
Being top man on the totem pole

Right: John Lallas, executive dean to the
president's office, is chief staff officer for
Pres. William Boyd. He also coordinates the
University's Committee System as well as
reviewing formalization of new policy. Far

administration and finance, spent the year
balancing budgets and keeping tabs on
University income and spending. Besides
juggling figures, Hawk oversees such services
as the Physical Plant, Campus Security,
intercollegiate athletics, classified personnel
and University Relations. Hawk also reviews
the ASUO budget yearly, making
recommendations to the president.

will agree. As head of the Oregon
State System of Higher Education,
Lieuallen dealt with the state's eight
institutions collectively and
individually.
At the University, Lieuallen met
with continual students protests of
a proposed tuition increase. Student
government, the Committee to
Fight for the Right to an Education
and the Revolutionary Student
Brigade rallied, protested and
argued to stop fee inflation. One
incident found Lieuallen in Portland
for a long-standing appointment as
students marched in front of
Johnson Hall demanding an
audience with him. They retorted,
"Tell the chancellor that we're on to
his tricks."
A 12 per cent hike was approved
(see feature on page 221), but
Lieuallen continued to mediate
between students, the State Board
and the Legislature. He attempted to
promote the voucher system as a
possible alternative.
The system, he said, involves
"placing in the hands of students a
requisition for services at an
institution, rather than
appropriating money to the
institution. The voucher would not
be cashable at the bank, and you
couldn't buy a hamburger with it."
continued student protests
Gerald Bogen, vice-president for
student affairs, said his job requires
him to be an "in-house man ... a
member of the establishment with
the responsibility to keep my ears
on the outside and pump that
information inside."
Bogen's office is responsible for
all student-oriented services
including housing, the EMU and
health services. He was perhaps
most lauded by students for his
approval of an alcohol in over-21
dorms proposal.
What started as an ad hoc
committee in the Student University
Affairs Board grew into a direct
proposal for a dorm which allowed
alcoholic beverages for its over-21
residents. The committee took the
idea to housing director H.P.
Barnhart-he signaled thumbs
down. Barnhart believed allowing
alcohol in the dorm would reduce
dorm livability. But the Dormitory
Governance Council appealed his
decision. Bogen entered with his
approval.
"I've been impressed with the
success Oregon State University has
had with such a dormitory over the
past several years," Bogen said in
making his decis.ion.
With the term's ends, Bogen did
reword the approval stating that
alcohol would be allowed in dorms
that housed "predominantly upper
class students." This plan was more
flexible toward students who had
already reserved rooms.
Bogen also dealt with his own
office in a large reorganization
move. The shuffling included job
changes and new responsibilities for
administrators in student affairs
research, school relations, student
services, international student
services, admissions and
registration and records.
Harry Alpert, the "academic
conscience" of the University,
resigned his post as vice-president
for academic affairs and provost to
prepare for his upcoming
reti rement.
Alpert goes on sabbatical for a
year and will return as a professor
in the sociology department. He
left an office which he characterized
as being in touch with the faculty,
understanding faculty problems,
concerns, and interests. "Also I
would say the concern is in the
development of an appropriate
curriculum to be sure students are
getting the kind of education they
deserve and need."
A nationally recognized social
scientist, Alpert joined the
administration in 1958 as graduate
school dean and was named dean of
faculties in 1964. He was appointed
to the vice-president position in
1971 under then-Pres. Robert Clark's
reorganized system.
"1 want to concentrate on doing
my scholastic things-my relaxation
comes from doing my thing, and
getting some travel in," Alpert said
of his plans. During his
administration he explains, "The
most exciting experience was
developing the academic areas to a
level of national recognition and
acceptance of the American
Association of Universities."
"Harry Alpert has served the
University during some of its most
difficulty years. His committment
throughout has been to academic
values and to the mission of
teaching and research at a level of
quality which has brought national
recognition to this campus," Pres.
William Boyd said upon accepting
Alpert's resignation.
The Oregon State Board of Higher
Education, after a search involving
more than 300 candidates, approved
the appointment of mathematician
Paul Olum, dean of the College of
Natural Sciences at the University
of Texas at Austin, to fill Alpert's
position. Olum taught at Cornell
University from 1949 to 1974 before
his Austin position.

Academic Advising Counseling
Academic advising, considered an
extension of the responsibilities
of University faculty, stresses
student communication and under-
standing of higher education and
University requirements and
standards.
The Office of Academic Advising
boasts a career academic develop-
ment program to assist students.
This involves coordinating a
program in the individual student's
major with a faculty member in
Academic Advising staff

the same department or school.
The office also coordinates
all advising for pre-health majors
including nursing. Beginning
fall of 1976 all general science
majors will be advised through
the office.
In an effort to expose students
to University requirements and
services available to them, the
office sponsored an academic
advising faire in the EMU Ballroom.
Staffed by professionally
trained counselors, the Counseli ng
Center makes available to University
students and staff, resources for
exploring and making personal decisions.
Counseling is available for
such problems as are found in career
choices, academic concerns and
problems in interpersonal relationships,
marriage and premarital counseling.
The Counseling Center is also the
center for most national testing
programs, including CLEP, College
Entrance Exams, Law School Admission
Test and others.
Students who thin k they are pro-
ficient in a course and don't want
to enroll in it can challenge that
course for credit. Challenging a
course entails signing up, studying
the text on reserve in the library
and taking the test before a certain
time period.
Students not wishing to take
Wr 121 or Wr 123 may seek a waiver
through the Counseling Center. SAT
scores or CLEP scores may be high
enough to waive these courses.
Professional consultation is
offered by the Center on group
process and communication, particularly
Center
as applied to the teaching process.
Faculty members and students can
also get consultation either
individually or with groups
on behavioral/mental health problems.
Speakers are available for
classes on a variety of psychological
issues or topics.
Anthropology
Anthropology students studied
, the "study of man" in a variety of
settings-traditional classroom
situation, field study and lab-
oratory primate dissections were
all part of the program.
A class in Prehistoric Tech-
nology offered students three
hours a week of making stone
tools.
Summer field research supplement-
ed classroom study of the four an-
thropological subdisciplines:
physical anthropology, archeology,
cultural anthropology and lingui-
stics.
The department maintained a
field school at Long Tom River,
studying artifacts of the local
Calapooia Indians.
Graduate students conducted
studies in Romania, Panama and New
Guinea. Prof. Don Dummond and
six students completed a three-
year excavation project in Alaska.
Other faculty members, on tem-
porary leave, conducted field
studies in Iran, India and Austra-
lia.
Several students spent parts of
their summer, fall and spring
performing archeological surveys
for public landholding agencies.
The nonprofit enterprise, led by
Prof. C. Melvin Aikens, contracted
with government agencies such as
the Forest Service and the Bureau
of Land Management.

Biology
The biology department focuses
on the study of the living world
and provides opportunities for
students to participate in various
research projects.
Extensive facilities are main-
tained to handle the constant re-
search within the department. An
animal-rearing room, aquarium
facilities, a growth chamber and
greenhouse, and professionally
maintained microscope and photo-
graphy labs are among the facili-
ties.
Department projects include
studying DNA in bacterial and vir-
al systems to better understand
the role of genes in higher or-
ganisms, X-ray structural studies
of protei ns and development of new
techniques for studying bio-
logical membranes.
A department biologist, Franklin
Stahl, was elected to the presti-
gious National Academy of Sciences
for his work in the field of
heredity. He is the fourth
scientist from the University to
receive this honor.
The department also maintains a
marine station in Charleston, the
Oregon Institute of Marine Bio-
logy. Spring term the department
hosts"Man and the Oregon Coast,"
an interdisciplinary study pro-
gram which attracts students from
all departments of the University.
The institute also operates a
full program during the summer and
is available for individual
research throughout the year.

Chemistry
While many a frustrated chemistry
major attempted to determine what
strange concoctions peered back at
them through the microscope,
several professors in the chemistry
department kept their eyes on a
number of chemistry-oriented pro-
jects.
University chemist Frederick Dahl-
quist worked with E.coli, a common
bacteria found in human intestinal
tracts. Dahlquist hypothesized
that research on infinitely small-
er creatu res-bacteria-cou ld
lead to better understanding of
the chemical events that under-
lie the sensory perceptions (sight,
smell, hearing, taste, touch) of
larger creatures such as man.
Dahlquist focused on the swim-
ming action of bacteria in his
study, funded by the National In-
stitute of Health. He found that
bacteria use sugar for energy and
swim toward higher concentrations
of suger-a process somewhat
similar to what goes on when
people smell.
"We would like to understand the
nature of biochemical events
which are involved in both organ-
isms," Dahlquist says.
Prof. John Schell man, a re-
search associate of the University's
Institute of Molecular Biology,
received $45,000 from the National
Science Foundation to continue a
project dealing with spectroscopy
of oriented biological systems.
As the faculty and staff continued
research projects, students par-
ticipated in biochemistry (struc-
ture and function of DNA, DNA
protein complexes and trailsfer RNA,
protein molecule structure, en-
zymes, and the physiological ac-
tivity of alkaloids); organic chem-
istry (structure determination,
biology, chemistry - 25
kinetic studies, the use of com-
puters for predicting the proper-
ties. of molecules to the synethesis
of a wide variety of molecules),
and physical chemistry (molecular
spectroscopy, theoretical chemistry,
biophysics and geochemistry).
Students may choose a professional
or career oriented curriculum or
one based on teaching with a
science emphasis.
Complete instrumentation is
aVclilable for study in mass spectro-
metry, nuclear and electron magnetic
resonance, ultra-violet, visible
and infrared spectroscopy, optical
rotary dispersion and circular
dichroism, ultra centrifugation,
electron microscopy, automated
X-ray diffraction facilities and
several satellite computer systems.

plies nearly all glass equipment
for the department.
The department also offered a
bi-yearly lecture program. In
conjunction with the weekly de-
partmental seminars, the Pacific
Coast Lectureship provided guest
speakers one during fall and
spring terms.

Computer
One of the most recently develop-
ed departments at the University,
Computer Science offers both
Bachelors and Masters degrees.
The department utilizes the Com-
puting Center's equipment, which
includes an IBM-360 Model 50 and
a Digital Equipment Corporation
PDP-10.
The center acquired new equip-
ment during the summer to upgrade
its current facilities, increas-
ing the efficiency of the main
computer, accommodating more users,
and increasing one system's memory
and capacity, according to Fred
Beisse, managing director of the
center.
Courses range from the theore-
tical to the practical side of
computer science, and are
available to both majors and non-
majors. Financial woes beset the
department throwghout the year,
resulting in funding cuts for
almost all courses, and affecting
the amount of machine time avail-
able to students.
Each Christmas the center sells
gift certificates for computer
time to be used by young people,
high school age or below. Super-
vision is provided for the stud-
ents on specified dates during
the Christmas holidays.
The field of computer science is
a rapidly expanding one, and job
opportunities are reasonably good
for students who graduate in com-
puter science and related fields,
says Gordon Ashby, head of systems
programming for the center.

Economics
Economics is the theoretical
side of money. The departments
tries to deal with as many dif-
ferent aspects of the problem as
possible, and sponsored several
speakers to present diverse points
of view on the problems and
challenges of our economy.
One major curriculum change
involved the prerequisite course,
Econ 201, a class that combined
the studies of micro- and macro-
economic focus. The change gave
each su bject a more thorough
treatment, better preparing stu-
dents for other courses.
Environmental issues took front
stage in economics talks during
the year. Geoffrey Heal, prof-
essor of economics at Sussex
University in England, spoke on
"The Depletion of Exhastible Re-
sources: Some Theory and Evi-
dence." Heal dealt with the
question of a profit-oriented
economy's tendency to exploit the
world's resources.
Barney Dowdle,a University of
Washington economist, voiced his
opinion of the current forest
management practices in regard to
public lands.
James March, well-known econo-
mist and dean of the social sci-
ences department at the Univer-
sity of California at I rvine spoke
on the general topic of univer-
sity organizations and organic
theory.
Raymond Mikesell, W.E. Miner
professor of economics offered his
plan on foreign mine investments
in his book, released in November,
"Foreign Investment in Copper
Mining: Case Studies of Mines
in Peru and Papua, New Guina."

English
Competency in writing is the
hottest subject in the English
department this side of book-
burning.
Special meetings at the Univer-
sity, sponsored by the ad hoc
Committee on Competencies in
English Composition, focused on
coordinating programs to improve
writi ng instruction in Oregon
schools.
Prof. Nathaiel Teich, director
of composition, is fostering what
Dr. Roland Bartel, head of the
department, calls a "grass roots
movement throughout the state."
Meanwhile, on the home front,
writing competency isn't so compe-
tent. The number of remedial
writing courses, Writing 120,
steadily increased.
Movement is aimed at impro-
ving writing instruction.
More than half the English fac-
ulty spent spare hours working on
books. Several were published
during the academic year and
others are in the process.
One of the more whispered-about
unwritten rules of the department
(and indeed of the University) is
"publish of else." While publi-
cation is important to the car-
eers of faculty members, ade-
quate teaching is the most im-
portant concern of the depart-
ment. Inadequate teaching re-
sults in termination from the
department, and student opinion
is important in determining the
adequacy of faculty members.
"Publish or else" is in effect
only after teaching ability has
been proven. Bartel happily re-
28 - english
ported, "We have one of the best
faculties in years."
On the literature side, new
classes featured The Woman Writ-
er: A Workshop and Autobiogra-
phies by Women.
Poetry and other readings
brightened class content and
included a visit from Native
American author James Walsh.
Edwin Coleman, assistant prof-
essor, established a local com-
mittee, the Eugene Save the Schom-
berg Committee, to raise funds
for the New York library and
museum specializing in black cul-
ture. The Schomberg Center for
Research in Black Culture, in
Harlem, "contains works by
virtually every major Black
author, both early and cont-
emporary," said Coleman.
The department, with 44 faculty
members, 315 undergraduate majors
and 180 graduate students, is
one of the largest University
departments.

Geography map room
Geography
Inspired by the University's
Centennial, the geography depart-
ment's major project, The Atlas
of Oregon, was scheduled to be
published in time for the Oct. 16
Charter Day festiVities.
Under the direction of William
Loy, associate professor, the
faculty and staff of the depart-
ment compiled a 224-page, full-
color atlas with everything from
population statistics, bicycle
trails, coastal marine life,
and wild berry patches to solar
radiation and taxation.
"Our text is written by the
'Atlas' staff to keep it from
being too technical. It is
designed for the average person
interested in Oregon," Loy said.
Entirely in the metric system
(and with a metric conversion
table) the atlas has three major
sections: human geography, eco-
nomic systems and the natural
environment. A gazetteer of place
names, selected statistics, an
index and more than 740 maps and
numerous charts and diagrams are
also included.
The department divided its devo-
tion to the atlas by sponsoring
several guest lecturers. Stephen
Jett, geographer at the University
of California and Davis, spoke on
the Pacific Exchange between China
and Meso-America.
Yi Fu Tuan, visiting professor
at UC Davis from the University
of Minnesota and a former Guggen-
heim Fellow lectured on "Visibility:
The Creation of Place."
Chairer of the University of
Chicago geology department Brian
Berry spoke on ghetto expansion
and housing prices in Chicago.

Geology
Glancing at the walls in the
library entrance halls, the aver-
age student wouldn't be aware that
the rock used to construct the
walls was probably quarried in
Liguria, Italy. But thanks to the
geology department, this and other
information was made available in
a guide coordinated by Prof. Wil-
liam Holser.
The unique guide to "building
geology" on campus consists of a
15-stop, do-it-yourself tour of
rocks and other geological features
displayed in building stone and
in exhibits.
Students and faculty alike were
pleased to learn of a $2,000 grant
from the University office of
Scientific and Scholary Research
awarded to Alan Leeds, assistant
professor, to reactivate the
seismographic station at Pine
Mountain near Bend. The station,
housed in a 50-foot trailer on
long term loan from the National
Aeronautics and Space Administra-
tion, had been dormant since 1970.
Students will assist Leeds in
local and regional earthquake
monitoring in eastern Oregon. They
hope to "Iearn something about
the overall picture of what's
happening to the earth's crust in
Oregon," said Leeds.
The department invited community
members to a spring break field
trip to southeastern Oregon. The
group, led by Prof. Ernest Lund,
traveled through Malheur Refuge,
Steens Mountains and the Alvord
Desert Region of Harney County.
The participants also spent three
days at the Malheur Environmental
Field Station observing the area's
geology.
Lund co-authored a pamphlet pub-
lished during the year entitled
"Steens Mountain, Oregon."
"Few places offer such an op-
portunity to view the heads of so
Prof. Gordon Gales's pet rock
many glacial valleys in such a
short distance and with the exer-
tion of so little physical energy,"
Lund explained in the pamphlet.
On a larger scale and in view of
the omnipresent energy crisis,
Oregon State University and Uni-
versity students and faculty
continued to investigate geother-
mal energy possibilities at two
Oregon sites. The team received
a $120,000 grant from the U.S.
Department of Interior.
Led by Brian Baker, associate
professor and director of the
University Center for Volcanology,
the graduate students and faculty
servey and measure the fluctuation
of the earth's gravitational and
magnetic fields in the central
Oregon Cascades and in the Vale-
Nyssa area of eastern Oregon.
Baker described the task as
comparable to looking for oil:
"You're working blind at best."
Other faculty members receiving
grants included Norman Savage,
awarded a $50,000 grant from the
National Science Foundation (NSF)
to cond uct biostratisgraph ic re-
search in southeastern Alaska.
Alexander McBirney received a
$48,000 NSF grant to continue
research of rocks around Skaergaard
Sound, a remote part of the coast
of eastern Greenland, Gordon
Goles, geochemist, was granted
$43,000 from NSF to analyze rocks
from three chains of volcanoes
in southern and central Kenya
that could explain what causes
rifts in the earth's crust.

History
As area high schools try to phase
out history as part of their re-
quired curriculum in favor of more
"relevant courses," Dr. Robert
Smith, history department prof-
essor, is activating relation-
ships with the schools' teachers
in an effort to defend history in
the public school system. He
and other teachers believe that
history is a valid, up-to-date
course that has many implications
for modern ideas and goals.
Many of the history department's
own courses have been revised
to reflect a contemporary approach
and student interest. Roles of
Women in History, War and Ancient
Society and American Racism and
Asians are just three of the new
and experimental courses added to
the curriculum. Many of the old
courses were offered, but under
new titles and numbers.
Also revised was the masters
program. The trend is away from
graduate studies to be applied
strictly for a teaching degree and
toward learning the extensive
research techniques that are val-
uable for lawyers, insurance men
or anyone who conducts research
of any depth.
Among other activities, the
department sponsored a series of
prominent speakers from Yale,
Harvard and Indiana. Topics
ranged from early history to
modern times. Prof. Ernst Badian
spoke on "Some Sing of Alexander,
some recent Interpretations of
Alexander the Great," while Prof.
John Gimbel discussed, "The
Russians are Coming: The State
Department and the Occupation of
Germany."
Prof. Thomas Govan spoke at the
1975 Charles F. Deem lectures at
New York University (NYU). Dr.
Govan lectured as part of NYU's
Bicentennial celebration. His
lecture, ."We hold these Truths:
the American Credo," was given
in October.
Govan produced a 20-program tele-
vision series entitled "Radical
America: The Continuing Revolution."
The series was broadcast on educa-
tional television networks in
Oregon and Washington.

Languages
The long-awaited Deutsches Haus
(German House), hoped to be a reality
in 1976, encountered problems but
was in the works for fall of 1976.
The Haus, a revamped Dunn Hall with
women and men on separate floors,
will house freshmen to grad'uate
students in a living, learning
experience.
The dorm will feature a German
atmosphere and activities as well
as an emphasis on speaking German
during daily activities.
The Deutsches Haus received
several books and packages from
Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft
(German Research Community, during
a visit from the consul of the
Consulate General of the Federal
Republic of Germany in Seattle.
Rudolph Muller-Horn also spoke on
"Wirtschaftsfragen in der Bundes-
republik" (Economic questions in
the Federal Republic) during his
stay.
The language department, housing
German and Russian, Chinese and
Japanese, Classics, and Romance
Languages, featured a media and
textbook fair for foreign language
teachers from throughout Oregon.
The German and Russian depart-
ment, with the help of the Goethe
House of New York, displayed a
photography exhibit of designs
emanating from the Bauhaus in
Germany from 1919 to 1933.
The classics department brought
Prof. Nicholas G. L. Hammond, the
Mellon Distinguished Professor of
Humanities at Reed College, to
campus. Hammond presented an
illustrated lecture on the history
of Greek theater.

Mathematics
The math department's faculty
and staff prepared for and com-
pleted several changes. Both
the undergraduate and graduate
programs were reevaluated, and
new requirements for undergraduate
degrees were instituted at the
beginning of 1975.
Course content changed for some
classes, and two series classes
were permanently added to the
course offerings. One addition
was a Theory of Calculus class
that had been taught experimen-
tally, and another was an Elements
of Discrete Mathematics course.
Deady Hall, the department's
base, received a facelift with
the addition of a sprinkling
system, and Fenton Hall was
remodeled in anticipation of the
transfer of the main department
offices from Deady Hall during
spring and summer terms.
Approximately 35 fulltime fac-
ulty members and an equal number
of Graduate Teaching Fellows serv-
ed over 3,000 students each
quarter-almost one out of every
five students. In addition to
providing the extensive services
required, professors within the
department are involved nationally
on several levels, attending many
national and international conf-
erences.
Three Soviet scientists visited
the University in December and met
with Dr. Paul Civin to analyze
his work in applying computer
theory to the management methods
of the University. Prof. Kenneth
Ross traveled to Rome for a mass
conference on mathematics during
spring term.

Philosophy
What good is a B.A. in philosophy
on the job market? It's no good
at all, according to Prof. William
Davie, head of the philosophy
department.
In fact, Davie says, a Ph.D.
isn't much better. One in four,
on a national average, lands a
job. Maybe that's why the depart-
ment had less than 50 undergrad-
uate majors and 26 graduate stu-
dents.
Davie stresses that a degree in
philosophy is not an end in itself.
Many graduates go on to study law,
history or the humanities at the
graduate level.
Though not a field with a dir~
ect practical application, philo-
sophy, Davie says, "is great
preparation."

Political Science Psychology
The Mock Democratic Convention
was without a doubt the most color-
ful event for the political sci-
ence department involving over
1,000 students.
Planning for the convention
began in earnest fall term and
culminated in the two-day event
at McArthur Court. Students
strove to make the simulated
meeting a true reflection of
what the July convention would
be, right down to demonstrations,
drinking and drowsy-eyed dele-
gates.
Despite the furor of the con-
vention, the department managed
to look at Campaign 76 in other
ways. Some courses, such as
Elections and Opinions, taught by
John Orbell, were geared toward
the election campaigns.
The department sponsored speak-
ers on various political issues
including an Angola teach-in with
speaker Tony Thomas, co-author
of"Angola: The Hidden History
of Washington's War."
The major program in political
science allows students to take
the courses they wish, rather than
having required classes. As a
result, the curriculum is flexible
and reflects changes in issues
and problems as they occur.

The psychology department found
a pernament home after moving into
newly remodeled Straub Hall in the
fall.
After years of roving between
classes and offices in buildings
all over campus, students and
faculty alike were relieved to be
headquartered in a single location.
The remodeling project converted
a 47-year-old dormitory into a
complete facility with research
laboratories and computer equip-
ment as well as offices for fac-
ulty and graduate students and
new classrooms.
The new building was dedicated
April 6, with ceremonies presided
over by Robert Fagot, department
chairer. Tours of the new lab-
oratories and a special hour were
part of the festivities.
The move also meant a better
equipped area for the psychology
clinic, which off~rs treatment
and counseling in several problem
areas. The clinic provided prac-
tical training for students and
Ph.D. candidates under profession-
al supervision.
Clinic projects included an
insomnia clinic, a newlyweds work-
shop, a program to help smokers
kick the habit, a program to treat
premature ejaculation and a pro-
ject which developed individualiz-
ed treatments for depression.
The Inquiry Training project, an
independent study program intended
to allow students to learn about
mental processes and gain exper-
ieflce with psychological techni-
ques was added to the department.
The program is based on computer
controlled experiments and video-
tape observations.

Physics
Star Trek isn't the only place
to find space shuttles. The
National Aeronautics and Space
Administration (NASA) will have
them, and two University physi-
cists are involved.
Russell Donnelly and Peter
Kittel, of the physics depart-
ment, received grants from NASA
to survey the class of helium
experiments which could be most
advantageously done in space-
space shuttle experiments.
The department has done very
well with federal support money,
such as for the space shuttle
plan. Practically all faculty
members have grants, a situation
resulting from the Sputnik days.
Although no new programs were
established, the department put
out a concerted effort to mod-
ernize upper division lab offer-
ings. One such modernization
involved modern digital electronic
instruments. Also, $150,000 was
allocated for a renovation of
Pine Mountain Observatory, part
of which goes for new telescope.

Speech
The speech department consists
of three areas: rhetoric and
communication, theatre, and broad-
casting. A fourth division will
be added fall term 1976, Tele-
commu nications.
Telecommunications focuses on
the electronic media. Its
curriculum covers everything from
the nuts and bolts aspects of
a job, including the use of
equipment and managing a station
or studio, to the highly theoreti-
cal aspects, such as legal issues
and media research.
Dr. Carl Carmichael, speech
department head, views the area
of rhetoric and communication as
"a very healthy balance between
the historically traditional
study of rhetoric and the contem-
porary research in human communi-
cation problems."
In this division students pre-
pare and deliver speeches, study
the great speech philosophers and
critique famous addresses. The
division also focuses on the
communication aspect of contem ..
porary social problems, such as
marital difficulties or the
communication problems of the
elderly.
"A primarily academic program,
and educational theatre," is
Carmichael's description of the
theatre department.
"While we try to produce plays
as professionally as we can," he
explained, "we're not afraid to
experiment for educational pur-
poses."
This attitude was reflected in
the presentation of The World of
Carl Sandburg and Prism.
The World of Carl Sandburg was
directed by Thomas Gressler, head
of the Horace Robinson Theatre.
Gressler and the six-member cast
took the play on a three-week
tour throughout Oregon. Several
of the towns they performed at had
never had a live theatrical
sociology, speech .. 39
presentation before.
After the tour ended, the play
was presented in the University
Pocket Theatre.
"I had seen it (the play) once
before," Gressler said, "and I
was so terribly moved that I felt
I had to do it sometime before I
died, and this seemed to be a
good place to do it."
Prism was arranged and directed
by Jean Cutler, a professor in
the department. The play consist-
ed of a wide variety of theatri-
cal acts combined into one show.
Students in the broadcasting
department receive on-the-job
training in addition to classroom
study. Many of their classes
center around KWAX-FM, the student-
operated radio station, and PL-3,
the University's closed-circuit
television station both in Villard Hall.

Architecture...
Encompassed in the School of
Architecture and Allied Arts is
the history, teaching and prac-
ticing of the arts.
The largest in the University,
the school houses six depart-
ments: fine and applied arts, art
education, art history, landscape
architecture, urban and regional
planning and interior architec-
ture. Ten per cent of the Uni-
versity'S students are art and
architecture majors.
"Ancient Mythology in Art and
Literature" was the subject of
a symposium sponsored by the
school in conjunction with other
organizations. A special art
exhibit at the Museum of Art en-
titled, "The Labors of Herakles
on Antiquities from West Coast
Collections," protrayed Herakles
(Hercules) and his 12 labors in
a variety of media. Frances
Stern, assistant professor of art
history organized the exhibit with
some objects originating from
various areas such as Seattle,
Portland and San Francisco.
The art history department
sponsored a special short term
seminar, the"Art and Archaelogy
of Chinese Turkistan," taught by
William Trousdale, curator for the
Smithsonian Institute. The
seminar included two weeks of
workshops.
Prof. Jan Zach exhibited his
work in Gov. Bob Straub's office
during February. Zach's exhibit
consisted of two small wooden
forms entitled "Desire" and "Small
Monument to My Mother," as well as
his "Flowers of Freedom." The
latter piece won Zach a place
among six finalists in Internation-
al Sculpture competition. He was
chosen as one of the finalists
from a field of 120 sculptors and
700 works. The two winners,
announced in July, had their
sculptures placed at a site near
the University of New Orleans.
Art and architecture students
worked together designing and
building a foundry located on the
Mill Race. The foundry, a place
where metal casting can be done
for such things as sculptures,
...and Allied Arts
represented builders working
directly with users in the design.
The bus shelter on 13th Avenue and
Kincaid Street also utilized the
designer-user concept.
"The Oregon Environment: A Citi-
zen's Guide to Environmental Anal-
ysis and Planning Procedures," was
published by the urban and regional
planning department.
The book attempts to clarify
environmental issues, explains
existing measures for these
issues and provides aids for per-
sons wanting to become involved
in problem-solving.
Kenneth Knapp, landscape archi-
tectu re instructor, identified
all 1,700 trees on campus in his
book, "Trees of the Oregon Campus."
The book consists of a series of 54
maps of the campus.
Each year students have an
opportunity to study art and archi-
tecture in different parts of the
world. One term is spent on campus
in preparation for the trip. The
following term is spent in the
individual country. Students
were in Greece during spring
term and summer term was spent in
England. Students study the
culture as well as their particular
area of art or architecture.
Landscape architecture students
may also spend a week in San Fran-
cisco talking with and viewing
what professional architects are
doing in the Bay area in an effort
to reach out and make contacts
outside the campus environment.

Business
Dean Richard West's resignation
from the College of Business
Administration was a great loss to
both students and faculty. West,
who became dean in 1972, accepted
the same position at the prestigious
Amos Tuck School of Business
Administration at Dartmouth,
Hanover, N.H.
"1 am resigning with the
continuing belief that the College
of Business is on the road to
becoming one of the truly
outstanding publicly supported
business schools in the nation,"
West said.
West, a national authority on
municipal bonds and vice chairman
of the U.S. Municipal Securities
Rulemaking Board, accepted the
job because flit offers a truly unique
opportunity." Amos Tuck is the
oldest graduate school of business
in the nation, and celebrated its
75th year.
The search for a new dean
continued through spring term and
the announcement of West's
replacement was scheduled for the
summer.
From the student point of view a
major change was the new pre-
registration system for business
majors. Before the new system was
instituted, students complained
constantly about the difficulty of
obtaining required c1assesl The new
method allows graduate students
fi rst pick at classes, then
underclassmen choose in order of
their class ranking. Students outside
the department must wait until
regular registration to obtain
courses.
Throughout the year the college
was involved in various programs'of
both local and national importance.
Students published various business
forecasts, participated in several
studies and helped with the
operation of services offered to the
community.
One such service is the University
Innovation Center, one of three
such experimental centers in the
United States. Funded by the
National Science Foundation,
the center evaluates new inventions
and gives the inventor written
and computer analyses. Although
80 to 85 per cent of the ideas
are discouraged, the center has
aided some successful inventors by
helping market their ideas.
Another service is the M.B.A.
Consultants, a group of graduate
business students who offer
low-cost consulting to Northwest
firms. Students gain valuable
experience and are paid. The
service has helped businesses such
as Pacific Northwest Bell and
Stretch and Sew. "All of the
businesses have expressed
satisfaction," said Roman Andrus,
program coordinator.

The School of Community Service
and Public Affairs (CSPA) combines
classroom work with actual field
experience as part of its philosophy
of stressing student involvement.
Students choosing a CSPA major
prepare for professional careers
in community service, public
affairs and administration or
leisure and cultural services.
At least one term and often
more is spent fulfilling the field
instruction requirements in various
agencies throughout Oregon. This
allows students a chance to get a
firsthand understanding of their
future fields as well as apply
theories learned from classroom
work.
The school received a $5,000
grant from the federal ACTION
program to develop educational
opportunities in community
development. This grant funds the
beginnings of a year-long program
under which approximately 50
students will work in social service
placements.
Other services of the school are
the New Careers program, which
helps paraprofessionals get a
college degree; the Bureau of
Government Research and Service;
the Career Information System,
which gives students allover
Oregon access to information about
careers, and the Program
Evaluation and Development
Program.

Education
The College of Education
breathed a sigh of relief when the
National Council for Accreditation
ofTeacher Edu cation (NCATE)
re-renewed accreditation of the
secondary education programs.
Although the program never
actually lost accreditation, NCATE
had threatened to deny it in May of
1974. An appeal and a second visit
from the council were necessary
to straighten out the controversy.
Many students enrolled in the
college's elementary and secondary
education programs, yet these
programs are only one aspect of a
diverse schooL Students can opt to
study counseling, educational
psychology, speech pathology and
audiology. Programs in educational
administration and higher education
are also offered.
The curriculum combines
classroom and field experience and
practicum work which allows
students to practice their skills while
providing a valuable service to
people in need.
The college also sponsors several
clinics: The DeBusk Center, for
counseling and learning disabilities;
the Center for Gerontology; the
University Speech and Hearing
Clinic; the Center on Human
Development, which researches and
carries out training programs for the
handicapped and mentally
retarded.

~Iealth, Physical Education, Recreation
The College of Health, Physical
Education, Recreation and Dance
is I"esponsible for service courses,
recreational programs and
professional courses in four
individual departments: health
education, physical education,
recreation and park management,
and dance.
Since the health career industry
is the second largest employer in
the United States, the health
education department offers the
University student options in
commu nity health, preparing
students who have previous
paraprofessional certificates to work
in he.alth related agencies; safety
education and driver education;
dental hygiene, and athletic
training.
Through efforts of the
department's leadership and
cooperation of other state
institutions and professional
organizations, the Oregon State
Department of Education now has a
full-time health education director;
seperate certification of health
education teachers is required, and
health is required for a minimum of
one year for graduation from high
school in Oregon.
Esslinger Hall and Old Gerlinger,
housing much of the physical
education department, received
$60,000 and $176,000 facelifts,
respectively. Remodeling allowed
students full locker room services in
the proximity of either building.
The department offers options in
aquatics (specialists), athletic
training, coaching, dance and
pre-physical therapy. It also
oversees the intramural program,
Women's Recreation Association
and Intercollegiate Athletics. Title
IX, a federal law barring
discrimination on the bases of race
or sex, is being implemented
through a task force under Pres.
William Boyd. However, William
Rhoda, assistant dean, emphasized,
"Co-ed PE is really nothing new at
the University. When I joined the
faculty some 28 years ago, co-ed
fencing was offered. We've always
tried to meet the student's needs.
50 - health and physical education ...
Leisure Faire winemaking exhibit
Recently we've added a women's
weightlifting class, because enough
women demanded it." A University
Time Schedule statement says,"a
student may enroll in a class for the
opposite sex if he or she so desires."
New classes are often initiated by
graduate students as was Silambam
fencing during spring term. J. David
Manuel Raj, a doctoral candidate
from Tamilnadu, India, introduced
the sport to undergraduates and
established the International
Association of Silambam fencing-
the first University in the world to
do so. Raj, considered the father of
modern Silambam fencing, explains
"silambam" is a Tamil word
intended to represent the swishing
sound made when an elastic cane
staff, once a weapon of war, is
"brandished with power and vigor
and hit against another in the
process of dueling."
Prof. Jan Broekhoff was honored
with his election to the American
Academy of Physical Education, a
national organization limited to 125
outstanding educators.
In honor of the late Jeff
Elphinston, a graduate teaching
assistant from Australia who died in
1975 while attempting the first solo
winter traverse of the Three Sisters,
the Jeff Elphinston Memorial
Lecture series was established. Lou
Whittaker, Jan Sport promotion
director and leader of the 1975
expedition to climb K2, presented
the first lecture in May.
Among the many studies and
research conducted at the
department were one involved with
the Bicentennial events and another
which may benefit Eugene joggers.
A study of long-term exercise on
the human body utilized 50 to 100 of
the riders in the Bikecentennial, a
4,000 mile cross-country bike ride.
Cliff Brubaker, a former Oregon
professor now at the University of
Virginia, aided by Eugene Evonuk,
director of the Human Performance
Laboratory and several graduate
students took tests for strength,
work capacity, pulmonary function,
cardiovascular, body composition
and blood analysis.
A $60,000 grant was awarded for a
and Dance
two-year study examining what
occurs when a person walks or runs
under conditions that produce stress
and possible foot and ankle injuries.
Principal researchers are Barry Bates
and Louis Osternig, assistant
professors, and Dr. Stanley James of
of the Eugene Orthopedic and
Fracture Clinic.
The recreation and park
management department was
chosen from among 300 colleges
nationwide as a model for
development of a recreation
program at East Stroudsburg (Pa.)
State College. Larry Neal, associate
professor and department chairman,
was named president of the Oregon
Parks and Recreation Society.
A Leisure Faire, sponsored by
Chet McDowell of the Center of
Leisure Studies and three students in
recreation and park management,
offered information on a variety of
activities in the Eugene-Springfield
area, demonstrations on calligraphy,
bike repairs and maintenance, beer
and wine making, and ceramics.
The department used a quota
system for the first time to limit the
number of students admitted. A
class for non majors-Creative
Dramatics, Communication Art and
Systems Approach to Leisure
Services-was also introduced to
accomodate the larger enrollment.
Dance '76 is the highlight of the
dance department's activities (see
story page 132-133). Students may
audition for either the Concert
Dance Theatre under artistic
directors Janet Descutner, Barbara
Remington and Jenifer Pashkowski;
or the Dobre Folk Ensemble, under
artistic director Linda Heran and
associate director Sue Smyle.
The Dobre Folk Ensemble
participates in the annual Shrovetide
Folk Festival, a two-night event. The
tenth festival featured Ansamble
Obicni Ljudi of Sa.cramento/Davis;
Hoolyeh Dancers of Corvallis;
Anilani and Polynesian Dancers of
Oregon; 170 Folk Ensemble of Lane
Community College and the
University Hawaiian Dancers.
Six dance department
choreographers produced
"Seasonings," a benefit concert for
dance scholarships.
The Health, Physical Education,
Recreation and Dance Advisory
Board promoted group cohesion
and communication for the various
students it represents. The board
also coordinated and published
"Movements" magazine. John
Charles was chairer, Julie Towne,
secretary and Diane Smith, treasurer.

Journalism Dean John Hutteng
Journalism
Video display terminal. Ruhl
Symposium. Galen Rarick.
Can't fi nd a con nection? The key
is the School of Journalism and the
connection is meeting new faces
and obtaining new equipment for
students and faculty.
The electronic age came to the
journalism school with the purchase
of a $10,400 video display terminal
(VDT)-the Hendrix 5200B with
built-in computer, reader assembly
and tape reader box. Affectionately
known as the "Mighty Hendrix,"
the VDT was pu rchased via fu nds
from the Jackson Foundation of
Portland, the Collins Foundation,
also of Portland, and Hearst
Foundation grants matching awards
won by journalism students.
Students gained practical
experience on the Hendrix in Prof.
Roy Halverson's Newspaper Editing
class. Editing copy on a television-
type screen seemed a much easier
task than the standard pencil,
ruler and pastepot method.
"We don't expect students to
learn all the electronic codes, but
we do feel it will be an invaluable
teaching aid," Halverson said.
Students gained valuable
experience not only from machines.
The Ruhl Symposium in Journalism,
a series endowed to the school by
Mrs. Robert Ruhl of Medford,
widow of the long-time editor of the
Medford Mail-Tribune. The
symposium consists of a visiting
lecturer and two Ruhl Fellows who
spend a week as editors-in-
residence. lecturing to classes and
attending informal meetings of
students and faculty.
Newbold Noyes, former editor
and part owner of The Washington
Star, served as inaugural speaker
lecturing on "The Responsiblities of
PoweL" Noyes also met with
students during his stay.
The objective of the symposium is
to give students and faculty
members the benefit of insights and
experiences of respected leaders
in the field of journalism, both in
Oregon and on the national scene.
Ruhl Fellows are selected by a
committee of senior faculty
members from a panel of nominees
drawn up by the president of the
Oregon Newspaper Publishers'
Association (ONPA).
Robert Chandler, editor of Bend's
The Bulletin, and John Moureau,
editor of The Blue Mountain Eagle
at John Day served as the two
editors-in-residence. Chandler,
publisher of dailies at Baker and La
Grande besides a weekly at
Redmond, spoke on his recent
China visit. He is also a former
national president of the Society of
Professional Jou rnal ists-Sigma
Delta Chi.
Moureau, also mayor of John Day,
met with librariansh ip students on
community problems centering
around city and couty libraries.
After a year-long search, Galen
Rarick, not really a new face to the
school, succeeded John Hulteng as
dean.
Hulteng, dean from 1962 to 1968,
has been on the faculty since 1955.
He resigned in 1968 to teach and
write and returned at then
University Pres. Robert Clark's
invitation to fill a second interim
appointment. Hulteng will go on
leave to begin work on his fourth
book and to co-edit a series of
books for Prentice-Hall, Inc.
A former journalism faculty
member, Rarick returns to the
University from a professorship at
Ohio State University. He has also
taught at the University of California
at Berkeley and was director of the
American Newspaper Publisher
Association's News Research Center
and editor of the center's "News
Research Bulletin" from 1972 to
1975.
Rarick, who assumed his post in
August, holds several
memberships in professional
associations, including the Society of
Professional Journal ists, American
Association of University Professors
and Kappa Tau Alpha, journalism
honor society.
The school hosted statewide events
including the ONPA conference
with several University alumni in
attendance. It also co-hosted the
Oregon Scholastic Press 49th annual
conference for junior high and high
school newspaper and yearbook
staffs featuring two Pulitzer Prize
winners-Brian Lanker,
photography director of the Eugene
Register-Guard and George Weller,
foreign correspondent for the New
York Times and the Chicago Daily
News.
Enrollment averaged 654 majors
and pre-majors. The school,
established in 1916, is one of nine
journalism schools in the nation to
be fully accredited in four basic
educational sequences:
news-editorial, advertising,
broadcasting and public relations.

Law
The School of Law's Moot Court
team swept all the regional awards
at the Phillip C. Jessup International
Moot Court Competition in March
at Tacoma, Wash. Similar to a debate
in method, the Moot Court team
deals with a highly complex
problem concerning international
law.
Moot Court team members were
John Banner, Patricia Crain, Timothy
Newlove, John Steinberg and
Gail-Marie Schroeder King.
Competition for law school
admission was still keen despite
leveling of the national average.
Fall enrollment was 488 for the
fi rst -yea r class.
Students will benefit from the
lifelong experiences of-visiting
professors since the Wayne Morse
Chair of Law and Politics was
established at the school. The chair
is planned as a rotating
professorship that will be filled by
appointed public figures.
Former Supreme Court Justice
Arthur Goldberg headed the
committee to establish the
professorship. Goldberg was joined
by Sen. Mark Hatfield, R-Ore.,
former Oregon Gov. Tom McCall
and others. A nationwide committee
was formed to raise $500,000 for the
Chair. The fund was started by
contributions at the time of Morse's
death in 1974.
Morse was dean of the school for
14 years, served as the West Coast
labor arbitrator and on Pres.
Franklin Roosevelt's National
Labor Relations Board before his
election to the Senate in 1914.
The school received a federal
grant of $75,000 to conduct the
nation's only project to provide
needed legal training for
personnel who deal with abused
and neglected children. The project,
"Protective Service Advocate
Training," is a cooperative endeavor
of the school and the Wallace
School of Community Service and
Public Administration. The
program's goals included
developing a training manual
explaining the legal problems
involved in providing protective
legal services for abused and
neglected children, and conducting
workshops to train state agency
staff and supervisory personnel who
are responsible for providing
these services.
Prof. Eugene Scoles became the
second law faculty member in the
University's history to be appointed
as Distinguished Professor of Law.
The honor was conferred by
University Pres. William Boyd in
November. The title, established in
1967, honors faculty members who
have made exceptional
contributions to the law and to legal
education.
A fall lecture series entitled
"Law for Laymen" featured ten
lectures and a packed house. The
series was intended to acquaint
laymen with the problems of
personal and public legal rights
and procedures for exercising them.
The series has run yearly for more
than a decade, and is jointly
sponsored by the Lane County Bar
Association, the school and the
Eugene Center for Continuing
Education.
Prof. John Strong was named
dean of the University of Nebraska
College of Law. Strong's
appointment was effective Jan. 1,
1977. He had taught courses in
evidence, property and insurance.
He served as associate dean of the
school from 1971 to 1973.
Law Dean Chapin Clark said of
Strong's appointment, "We are
flattered, but not su rprised, that
Neqraska and its fine law school
have turned to Oregon for its new
dean."
Commencement exercises, May
15, featured Ann Fagan Ginger,
author and editor of more than a
dozen books on constitutional law
topics, who addressed the 146
graduates presented with the
doctor of jurisprudence degree.
Ginger is the editor of the
Pentagon Papers Case Collections,
the Angela Davis Case Collection
and the author of "Jury Selection
in Criminal Trials," and other
books. She was a faculty member
of the New College of California
School of Law in Berkeley.

L.ibrarianship
The Webfoot Librarian, a
periodical newsletter published by
the Association of Student
Librarians, was added to files of the
Library of Congress in Washington,
D.C. The association, designed to
give library students an opportunity
to enjoy social and educational
activities together, compiled, edited
and indexed the mimeographed
newsletter which is available to all
students and faculty of the School
of Librarianship.
Unlike many schools which have
gone the way of specialization, the
librarianship school, a master's
program, still teaches general
knowledge of the library.
After core courses have been
completed, other offerings are
available to students desiring to
continue in a specific department
of the library. Advance courses in
reference, classification, cataloging,
administration, children's literature
and others are offered.
To keep up with growing
automation, courses on information
storage and retrieval were added as
supplements to the introductory
computer science class.
Practicums are supervised by a
professional librarian with sites
located all over the state. School
librarians-in-training work in public
schools around Eugene, Corvallis,
Salem and other areas around the
state. Practicums are also established
at the University, Northwest
Community College, Lane
Community College and Oregon
State University.
Students in the storytelling class
go into the public schools and
libraries to read to children as part
of the emphasis on practical
experience.
The school sponsored several
speakers including Seymour James
from the United Nations library;
Beverly Cleary, the recipient of
the Laura Ingalls Wilder award, and
Gwendolyn Cruzat speaking on
collective bargaining in libraries.

Music
The School of Music started the
academic year with a new dean and
the promise of a new building.
Morette Rider, formerly dean of
fine arts at Hope College, Holland,
Mich., took the reigns of the school
in September, and joined students
and faculty in anticipation of the
scheduled July groundbreaking.
Plans for the $2.07 million project,
funded by the state Legislature in
the spring of 1975, included drastic
renovation of present buildings as
well as construction of two
additional structures.
Funding for an experimental solar
heating unit in the new building
was denied by the federal Energy
Research and Development
Administration, but music school
officials remained hopeful that
funds from other sources might be
forthcoming.
The school, the only institution
in the Oregon State System of
Higher Education to offer a
professional degree in music (B.M.),
served some 390 music majors,
offering courses in theory,
composition, music history,
performance and music education.
An emphasis of community
involvement produced a Senior
Citizen Concert Series and a
large-scale Christmas concert at a
nearby church, in addition to the
regular performances at Beall Hall.

On the brink of disaster? The
situation looks grim for the Reserve
Officers Training Corp unless seven
more juniors are recruited for the
1976-77 program.
The University's ROTC program
has fallen below Army standards in
total commissioned second
lieutenants. The problem had
surfaced with the abolishment of
the draft.
In past years faculty and students
tried to vote the organization off
campus and failed. Yet now the
program is dying of lack of interest.
ROTC is a four-year course
offered by the Department of
Military Science and Aerospace
Studies. Leadership, management
and the fundamental concepts of
military science are taught with the
objective of producing
commissioned second lieutenants.
Extra-curricular activities are
available for cadets in the two
programs, including Color Guard,
Drill Team, Rifle Team, Marauders,
Centuriannes, War Game Club and
the Arnold Air Society.

Interdepartmental Studies Graduate
There isn't a department head of
Interdepartmental Studies and
Special Programs-there isn't even
an office number.
Interdepartmental Studies,
formerly Interdisciplinary Studies, is
a catch-all for various academic
majors and programs that are small,
specialized and unique in one way
or another. The programs are
generally in integration of the
traditional departments with various
attempts to allow students to pursue
a special field of knowledge.
Studies programs are not regular
curriculums offering a degree but
are collections of courses offered
through various departments.
Degrees can be obtained in areas
such as ancient civilizations,
comparative literature, Ethnic
studies and others.
The newest addition to the
department is Women's studies. A
student can receive a certificate in
Women's studies, but must also
complete a degree in another field.
Every spring term the Oregon
Institute of Marine Biology, headed
by Prof. Paul Rudy, sponsors "Man
and the Oregon Coast." The
program involves about 50 students
in temporary residence at the
facilities in Charleston, near Coos
Bay. The area is a natural laboratory
for the study of both social and
environmental problems.

for Gerontology and the
Environmental Studies Center are
three of the more "than 14 such
centers presently active.
These interdisciplinary institutes
provide additional opportunities
for graduate training and research.
The Institute of Social Science
Research was established under the
direction of Prof. Richard Hill.

Each year thousands of human
subjects are involved in research
projects at the University. To protect
the rights of these human subjects,
the University has a special
committee to review all projects
along with a formal set of
procedures for researchers.
"More emphasis has been placed
on research involving human
subjects in recent years, said Fred
Wilhelm, assistant dean of the
school. Wilhelm added that the
number of research projects
involving human subjects has nearly
doubled over the past five years.
Approximately 3,600 students are
enrolled annually in graduate
programs. Enrollment has leveled
off in recent years, perhaps as a
result of the cluttered job market,
according to Prof. Aaron Novick,

For some 300 Honors College
students, the learning situation
provided at the Robert D. Clark
college is most unique. Here the
student has a one-to-one
relationship with faculty, classes
are small and independent study is
available.
The college, in an effort to
provide high school sophomores
and juniors awareness of the
University's science department
facilities, again sponsored tours.
On a higher educational level,
the college helped sponsor a
symposium on Northwest life
entitled "The Northwest Passage
into the 21st Century."
Continuing the interpersonal
emphasis, the college brought
business executive-in-residence
Ray Cassell to campus. Cassell is
senior vice-president and secretary
of Bankers Life Company. The
program was cosponsored by the
Institute of Life Insurance and the
University.
Honors college students Nancy
Duhnkrack and Todd True along
with Prof. Barre Toelken and college
director Edward Diller sponsored
three-day conferences in six Oregon
cities bringing together land
managers, users of public wilderness
and special interest groups. The
wilderness conference was funded
through a grant from the Oregon
Committee for the Humanities.

Erb Memorial Union
""onolithic disputes reverberate through EMU
Monolithic confrontations often
begin with small rumblings. And so
it was with the monolithic Erb
Memorial Union (EMU). The small
rumblings from student government
offices housed in the bottom floor
of the sprawling landmark began to
echo through the architectual maze
in early January.
As reports from the last fiscal
year were circulated, it became
readily apparent the EMU was
hardly self-supporting. The union
lost $94,000 last year, $20,000 alone
during the month of December.
The ASUO grew uncomfortable as
food services suffered a 15 per cent
deficit for fiscal year 1975-76, the
Skylight Room alone claiming
$30,000 of the total. Yet, EMU
Director Adell McMillan
optimistically said she thought the
food services would turn a profit.
Labor costs, inflation and spiraling
food costs were the menaces
causing the deficit problem,
McMillan claimed. "We are
reluctant to raise prices," she said,
"because then we could no longer
compete with the community's
services. We are not just a profit-
making organization but have an
objective to serve the students."
The problems became apparent as
coffee, for 20 years only 10 cents
in the EMU, was hiked to 15 cents.
Early March brought growing
dissatisfaction and suspicion from
student government groups, who
charged the EMU with inefficient
management saying the low volume
generated by EMU programs was
only a symptom of a monolithic
problem. Again the professional
administrators cast off the trend as
inflation and labor problems.
Ken Larsen, food services director,
was attacked for lacking a business
background (he had received a
bachelor's in food and nutrition
from Utah State). Anonymous
employes stated poor planning
62 - erb memorial union
severely placed the cafeteria in
debt. Food duplication and price
discrepancies wrought havoc on the
various budgets. The same
anonymous employes, noting the
EMU Beer Garden was known to run
out of beer, pointed to the dingy
atmosphere of the Fishbowl as
another reason for poor student
usage.
The EMU Board, a group of 12
students and faculty members,
worked with Larsen to get the food
services back in the black. But
tremors of a needed overhaul were
still quaking.
Finally, a certified public
accounting agency-Gregor,
Thorpe, McCracken and Early-was
contracted to conduct a
management analysis at the
beckoning of the Incidental Fee
Committee (IFC) for a $2,000 fee.
The EMU Board supplemented the
CPA study with the free services of
Robert West, management
consultant for the Oregon State
Board of Higher Education.
The study, completed in late April,
after eyeing food services, the Main
Desk, the Paint Shop and the
Outdoor Resource Center,
concluded prices for EMU services
are generally too low, inventory and
accounting procedures are
inadequate, counters and food areas
are generally overstaffed and too
many food services are duplicated.
Food services were severely
criticized. Inventory procedures,
storeroom access, ti me clock
discrepancies, lack of exposure
(especially the EMU catering
service) and others were cited as
problems. The study recommended,
for example, student employes be
paid at 85 per cent of minimum
wage with the remainder paid in
EM U food vouchers. A suggestion
to raise the check-cashing charge to
10 cents was implemented at the
Main Desk Store.
But perhaps the most ironic
suggestion, irking student leaders,
stated more authority should be
given to management in the area of
price changes. "Time is consumed
by referring price and service
charges to boards and committees
and results in loss of revenues or
increased opportunity costs,
untimely decisions, and inadequate,
inappropriate or expensive services.
During the entire fracas the
ASUO expressed a new desire. Not
only were they claiming student
ownership of Mac Court, but now it
appeared the EMU was also student
funded.
Don Chalmers, ASUO
administrative assistant, did most of
the research on both buildings and
emphatically stated students paid
for the facility by directly or
indirectly funneling over $300,000
into construction during the early
1950s, and are obligated to continue
paying for it until 1995.
ASUO Pres. Jim Bernau explained,
"We're just asking for some say in
how the EMU is run. After all, all
of the student government bodies
are housed here. The whole facility
is maintained by the student and
for the students."
The ASUO offered a plan to
implement more student control of
the monolith. The emphasis was to
revise structure of the EMU Board
from an advisory body to a policy-
setting group. The proposal would
amend the EMU chapter to have a
13-member board replacing the
EMU director as sole policy maker
and administrator. McMillan's
position, accountable only to
University Pres. William Boyd,
would be kept to serve as business
agent and professional manager.
Chalmers was determined as he
exploited a "moral if not legal"
right for student participation in
the management of the multi-
m'illion dollar monolith. "With the
as management study recommends increased prices. • •
exception of possible revenue being
dumped back in, students are
carrying the burden alone."
The vendetta was never really
resolved during the year even
though a new nine-step negotiation
process with administrators and
student groups was initiated in
hopes of reaching a decision. Yet
grumblings for student control
mounted with another EMU
brouhaha.
As the financial walls crumbled
for the EMU, problems arose with
its programs-the most formidable
with the Child Care and
Development Center (CCDC).
~
Above: Adell McMillan, EMU director, talks
about a proposal to the EMU Board.
In early November it looked like
another 18-minute Watergate-ish
tape gap. CCDC Director Katherine
Sacks complained the center was
being denied access to nearly
$10,000 of its allocated $69,192
budget. McMillan claimed the
CCDC budget was only $63,644. IFC
chairer Jane Aiken said it was $69,192.
The correct figure was never
decided upon, as budget hearing
tapes were lost or garbled. Not only
was there a total amount
discrepancy, but now a $17,000-
$20,000 CCDC deficit suddenly
emerged in the controversy.
Sacks stated she and McMillan
knew of the deficit in the preceding
fall term. But the issue became
"who will pay?" The IFC said
McMillan must pay it from the EMU
account. Yet McMillan retorted the
center should pay the deficit out of
the 1975-76 budget.
"We have no choice. It will have
to come out of the CCDC budget
for this year. It is not legal for
University accounts to operate at a
deficit and there's no source of
income other than the CCDC
budget for making up the
difference. We just don't have the
funds to make it up out of the EMU
general budget," said McMillan.
Sacks, who stated she was led to
believe she did not have to worry
about the deficit incurred from
salary increases (the EMU had
picked up a previous deficit) said,
"If Adell forces us to pay this deficit,
we will have to close down."
After rejecting a 3-2 vote by the
EMU Board against her
recommendation, McMillan
explained the EMU should not pay
the deficit because it occurred not
in any department of the EMU, but
in a grant account in the Business
Office under the direction of the
CCDC director."1 am ultimately
responsible for determining how
the deficit will be picked up and I
have decided it will come out of
CCDC," McMillan said.
"I'm not trying to make it hard on
CCDC," she continued. "If there
were any place else forit to come
out of, we would do it. But, if the
EMU took it up we would probably
find ourselves closing on weekends
or something like that. We are
operating on a bare bones budget
right now. The only places we have
to cut are strictly student services.
I don't feel that's a proper cutoff."
University adminsitrators Ray
Hawk, vice-president for
administration and finance, Ralph
Sunderland, University budgeting
officer, and Gerald Bogen,
vice-president for student affairs,
stood behind McMillan's CCDC
budget figure of $63,644. Hawk
stated the recognized official record
was a budget figure approved in
July-a lump sum of $636,832 for the
EMU with no reference to the
CCDC.
As the good guys and the bad guys
sorted each other out, the CCDC
Steering Board voted unanimously
to support legal action against
McMillan "to stop her from taking
our money." McMillan instructed
Sacks not to sign contracts with
parents for winter term, effectively
eliminating the center of any clients.
In the chilliness of late November,
some 50 parents, children and
teachers strolled (some with
strollers) through campus to
"demand the money that was
promised to us last spring." The
protestors straggled into McMillan':;
office only to find her out. Some
children left a papier-mache turkey
with a placard which read "Don't
gobble our bucks." Another child
left a heart-shaped pumpkin pie
with "We love you Adell" in
pumpkin seeds.
Sentiments soured as one teacher
said she felt there were indications
(continued on page 64)
erb memorial union - 63
• • . food services, eeoc confront McMillan, EMU
(continued from page 63)
that neither McMillan nor Boyd
supported the idea of day care
centers.
Ultimately, negotiations with the
EMU, the CCDC and the IFC bailed
the center out before the deadline
McMillan had set for the center to
take responsibility for the deficit.
The plan stated the EMU would pay
$5,000, the IFC would contribute
$6,500 and the CCDC would raise
$5,725.
The dispute caused Sacks to resign
her position in hopes the remaining
$3,000 of her salary would help foot
the bill. An unexpected $4,000 from
county and state child care agencies
was put toward the deficit. Sacks
bitterly emphasized, "The EMU is
no longer our friend." She
suggested the center be an
incorporated institution.
But CCDC's problems were not
over. A battle erupted with the
ASUO Executive charging incidental
fees should not be used to indirectly
subsidize students' educations, as is
the case with the CCDC's parent-
equalizing payments. During the
IFC budgeting process, the
executive shocked the CCDC and
liT members by recommending $0
for the center.
With the advice of the IFe, the
center began to expand its services
by reducing parent-equalizing
payments to one-half day hoping to
double the amount of parents by
implementing satellite centers and
by offering child care seminars.
Shortly after the dust had settled,
the EMU's own Drop-In Child Care
Center was forced to cut back full
services because flits losses were
such that it could not continue,"
according to Hal Smith, assistant
EMU director.
As the larger battles raged, smaller
skirmishes were waged with the
local United Farmworkers (UFW)
64 - erb memorial union
supporters and enterprising bagel
vendors.
The seemingly ever-present UFW
boycotters of Teamster lettuce
presented the EMU Board a
proposal to ban Teamster lettuce
from the EMU. Representatives of
the UFW Solidarity Committee
Nancy Byrd and Kurt wilcox claimed
students were "wholeheartedly in
favor" of the ban. The board
rejected the evidence as
inconclusive and voted against the
proposal saying they were not
authorized to take stands on "such
political issues."
Administrators attempted a ban
of their own against vendors selling
wares on the EMU terrace and
around campus. Two students trying
to earn summer money sold bagels
but were victims of the system.
Board rejects proposal to ban Teamster lettuce
"The only problem is we always
get hassled," one student
advertising P.D.G. (Pretty Damn
Good) Bagels, said, "They (security)
keep telling us to move on. Our first
day, they told my friend to go down
past campus to sell. Only the EMU
and Gem Vending are allowed to
sell food here. We think it's crazy
because they make enough profit
as it is."
Those areas of profit-making
didn't always fare so well. Yet
improvements and additions helped
the monolith heal its wounds.
EMU food services provided a
revamped cafeteria menu to include
several sandwiCh variations after the
management study. The Fishbowl
was divided into a Soda Bar area, a
Hamburger and Pizza area, and the
Deli where any variety of
concoction may be procured, or
ready-made suggestions are
available such as The First Lady
Special, honoring Betty Ford's short
but over-oggled visit to the EM U.
The Skylight now offers a
vegetarian and natural food
selection and is working toward
better exposure. The EMU catering
service, also facing an exposure
problem, has expanded its services.
The newest addition to food
services was rumored about
throughout the year and
mysteriously appeared in the EMU
Breezeway spring term. The
complete 31 ice cream flavors of
Baskin and Robbins became the
first private enterprise on a
state-school campus. The ventu re,
under the auspices of the EMU, is
hoped to aid the ailing food service
budget by returning collected rent
to the EMU.
While you eat, you can play-the
recreation center offers two bowling
alleys, several billard tables, table
tennis, shuffleboard and a variety
of machine games. The center also
boasts a resale center and the Canoe
Shack located on the Millrace.
For more practical services the
Print Shop offers quick copy service,
thesis and dissertation printing,
reduction and enlargement,
binding, collating and stapling, sign
making and photo copying.
Facilities for working in ceramics,
graphics, fabric and leather, jewelry,
woodworking and photography are
available at the Craft Center.
Memberships are offered to
students, faculty and staff, and
workshops are offered to novices.
The center is staffed by students and
coordinated by Tom Urban.
Nature lovers are served by the
Outdoor Program where wilderness
trips are cooperative ventures of
interested students. The program
also sponsors an outdoor equipment
swap and workshops. The third
annual Whitewater Week included
day river trips. The Cascade Winter
College provided free informal
instruction sessions on outdoor
winter pursuits with weekend trips.
Gary Grimm is the coordinator and
is assisted by Bruce Mason.
Stude nt Projects, Inc., is a
non-profit business handling
several marketing projects. Its major
service is Footnotes-a subscription
service for class notes. Other
projects include a basketball ticket
exchange and book exchanges.
Within the EMU, students may
obtain information at the EMU
Main Desk Store which sells sundry
items, various tickets to
performances, and cashes checks
for a 10 cent service charge.

Survival Center
Ilmpact statement, Earth Week major projects;
~works to 'become active part of the solution'
A giant inflatable whale may have
been one of the Survival Center's
more conspicuous projects, but it
was by no means the only one, or
even the most significant, according
to Director Mike McClellan.
The whale was part of a campaign
to boycott Japanese goods to stop
the killi ng of whales by Japan's giant
whaling industry.
Most of the Survival Center's
projects are closer to home. The
center promoted interaction with
various University and community
environmental groups and brought
several guest speakers on campus.
Members worked on state and
federal environmental legislation
and investigations, and established
classes on environmental concerns.
The center sponsored and the
staff members taught a total of nine
SEARCH classes on topics inciuding
resource recovery, Oregon
windlands and Oregon
environmental issues. The courses
averaged 150 students each term.
One of the center's major
accomplishments was the publication
of the U.S. Forest Service's impact
statement on the Willamette
National Forest. Center members
were active in the investigation
during the several years it took to
compile the report.
The Intercept program saw s,.-,me
success as the University Physical
Plant became more involved with
recycling as a standard University
policy.
Earth Week took a non-
traditional turn with activity-
oriented events including a jog, a
bike ride, a birdwalk and rafting
down the Willamette River.
State Rep. Norma Paulus brought
her insights on solar and energy
legislation to the festivities.
Expressed through their constant
and varied work on environmental
66 - survival center
issues, the basic philosophy of the
Survival Center has been, McClellan
said, "to become an active part of
the solution."

Outdoor Resource Center
Sells, rents

The Oregon Student Public
Interest Research Group (OSPIRG)
is a statewide nonprofit corporation
which investigates environmental,
consumer and civil rights problems.
OSPIRG is comprised of all
students attending the state's thirteen
colleges and universities. Campus
represe ntatives to the state board
of directors are elected by the
students.
The board, meeting monthly,
determi nes OSPI RG policies,
oversees the activities of the
professional staff and organizes
statewide projects.
Working with its professional
staff of attorneys, scientists,
sociologists, psychologists and
organizers, students represent the
public interest by presenting their
research to the courts and the
Legislature.
Students may participate in OSPIRG
in any of three ways: ongoing
projects or developi ng new
projects; summer internships where
students conduct indepth research
on specified topics such as juvenile
rights, nuclear power, utility
regulation and water quality; and
local boards.
The group was formed in 1970,
inspired by consumer advocate
Ralph Nader and concerned that
the public is often not given a voice
in decisions which affect the
quality of life in Oregon. Since its
formation, OSPIRG has grown into
an effective and influential
organization and is one of the
strongest public interest advocates
in the state.
OSPIRG publishes a Renter's
Handbook, which contains valuable
information and advice about
landlord-tenant laws, a sample
inventory and condition report and
a model residential rental
agreement.
The group also published a
guidebook to checking accounts
during fall term. The handbook
contained information on banks and
banking in various college towns
and cities in Oregon, listing
information on types, costs and
rates of checking accounts including
benefits, special plans and office
hours.
Some of OSPIRG's many projects
included statewide voter
registration drive, a survey of
citizen attitudes about regulation
of off-road vehicles, a fight to stop
Pacific Northwest Bell from raising
the cost of a pay phone call to 20
cents. The organization appealed
to the Public Utility Commissioner
asking for a reversal of the order
which allows a 20-cent charge for
directory assistance calls. An
energy conference in February
focused on economics and energy.
Above: As State Chairperson for OSPI RG,
Craig Quinn is responsible for coordinating
programs on 13 Oregon college campuses.
Skis, sleepi ng bags, rugby shi rts,
parkas, backpacks and pants are
available to buy or rent at the
Outdoor Resource Center.
The center, unique because it
is the only store of its kind on
campus, is part of the EMU's
programs. Equipment rental to
students is available at competitive
prices.
In 1971, at the advent of the
outdoor recreation rediscovery,
University student Scott Benge
began what is now the center.
Funded as a department of the
EMU, the center's goals are to make
available outdoor equipment to
students, give information about
outdoor equipment and to sell and
rent equipment as a revenue
producing source for the student
union.
Barry Kop, current manager of
the center, says a main objective
is to be fair and honest.

Anyone may teach a SEARCH
class, regardless of his or her
education, or lack of it. Instructors
come from the ranks of students
and community members. Human
experience is given a higher
priority than academic degrees.
SEARCH's goal is to provide
classroom experience that can be
carried directly into life in the "real
world." The emphasis is on
"practicality and necessity, rather
than book-learning and scholarly
gymnastics," according to a
SEARCH brochure. SEARCH
circumvents the traditional
student-teacher relationship by
providing and atmosphere of
mutual teaching and learning.
All SEARCH classes are accredited
by the University and fill elective
requirements. Courses usually
carry one to three units of credit,
generally at the 199 or 407 level.
Individual courses were more
carefully screened than in the past,
as the SEARCH staff attempted to
change the program's long-standing
"mickey" image. The staff also .
visited classes periodically to
examine routine and to try to
improve classes.

ESCAPE
Students can get away from 'book learning'
and into experiential education by helping others
Enthusiastic, 'caring, responsible
and willing are the students that
make ESCAPE (Every Student Caring
About Personalized Education) so
successfu I.
The program is designed to get
students away from "book
learning" and into the community
acquiring experiential education by
lending a helping hand and mind.
ESCAPE's tutoring service is in
great community demand. In a
term, about 3,000 calls for help
come to the ESCAPE office from
surrounding schools; only about
1,000 are filled.
Students tutor everything from
math and reading, to helping form
libraries and coaching school
athletic activities.
Community agencies also call on
the ESCAPE program for volunteers
in various areas. A new program is
Follow-Up, which helps inmates
reenter community life. Students
befriend soon-to-be-released
inmates and help them find jobs
and apartments. Volunteers also
work with the adult education
program and the Lane County
Corrections Institute newsletter.
Other community service
programs include working with
mentally retarded adults at Ivy
Acres and John Collier House, or
planning and implementing
recreational activities for the
young under such organizations as
the Amazon Youth Outreach,
Eugene Sports Program and others.
The Second Generation program,
in formation stages, uses children or
spouses of alcoholics to tutor school
children of alcoholic parents. The
program, unique to Lane County, is
designed by Judy Coffey, faculty
adviser, and John Turner.
ESCAPE is directed by a steering
committee consisting of about 16
members from all phases of the
program, including the curriculum
and administrative committee.
The dance marathon in February
raised $1,200 to buy resources such
as books and games for the
Instructional Resource Center.
Forty people were pledged in the
10-hour marathon with about 800
attending the dance; only two
dancers quit before the finals.
Wheatfield played and KFMY-FM
carried a special broadcast before

studying in a faraway place would

For students wanting to travel
for study or pleasure, the
International Education Center
(I EC) provides a travel service,
volumes of reference material on
places allover the world, and a
domestic exchange program.
"IEC offers help to students
wishing to increase their awareness

Jeri Mack, director.
The IEC established a regular
travel agency, staffed by fulltime
employe Ralph Malloy. Previously
students went to the IEC for
information about schedules and
discounted flights, but were not
able to book most flights through
the office itself. Now students can
take care of most of their
international travel needs directly
through the lEe.
Students are eligible for various
special rates when they travel
through foreign cou ntries and one
of the major functions of the IEC
is to provide information about
these rates. The center tries to give
the traveler, especially those who
have never gone abroad before, a

In 1972, the Chinese Student

the FSO to become a separate
organization, the only foreign
student association with that status.
About 300 Chinese students
attend the University, 240 from

"We are an umbrella

Organization (FSO). Associations
for students from about 60 foreign
countries are all under the
leadership and coordination of the
FSO.
The main objective of the FSO is
to represent the interests of the 700
foreign students on campus to
groups of people both within and
outside the University community.
The social, economic and political
concerns of these students are
expressed through the organization.
Another function of the FSO is
to help coordinate the groups'
assisting in planning cultural and
educational events that bring
students together and also involve
the campus as a whole.
The observance of national
holidays, educational seminars, and
cultural events such as India Night,
which featured India's food, dance
and recreation, are all part of what
the FSO coordinates. All financing
of these events comes through the
organization as well.

Kenneth Ghent, math professor,
has been responsible for up to 1,000
foreign students each year for the
past 24 years. He retired June 30
from his position as director of
International Student Services, and
will return to teach math during
winter term of 1977.
"I've enjoyed this job," Ghent
says. "I've come in contact with a
great group of people. And they're
usually superior students. They have
to be if they're going to make it
studying in a foreign country."
International Student Services
helps students and faculty
temporarily in the United States to
study or teach at the University,
as well as American students planning
to study abroad. It offers assistance
with academic and personal
counseling and financial planning.
Ghent's office also provides the
friendship-family service where
students are assigned to families in
the Eugene area, providing them
with a "home" base.

Inter-Fraternity Council and Panhellenic
lit's all greek to them
Greek living is on the upswing,
and Panhellenic and the Inter-
fraternity Council ((FC) have
become increasingly busy
organizing Greek activities.
Panhellenic is the governing body
for sororities and IFC governs
fraternities. Each group's
responsibilities include organizing
campus and community service
activities, raising money and
soliciting volunteers for
phi lanth ropic organ izations,
governing the houses and
promoting fraternity and sorority
living.
To meet these responsiblities,
the councils;organize events which
involve the entire Greek system
and combine service with fun.
The largest event is Greek Week.
During this week in mid-spring, the
Creeks join together to raise money
and have a good time. Students
invite faculty members to dinner;
compete in push-cart races, tug-
of-war and a singing contest, and
hold an all-Greek talent show and
Bunion Derby dance. Proceeds
from the talent show and dance go
to various charities.
Panhellenic and the (FC also
organize a telefund to raise money
for the University Development
Fund. This fund provides student
scholarships and loans to professors
who are working on publishing
material.
The councils also work separately
on service projects. The (FC held
the annual three-on-three basketball
tournament raising money for the
Kidney Association, while
Panhellenic sponsored a Korean
child.
The IFC and Panhellenic
continued the Canoe Fete, revived
by the 1975 council. The groups
also worked in conjunction with the
athletic department to revive a
homecoming celebration.

"Our main objective is to educ-
ate and inform people," says Alert
Director Loren Simonds. "The
main and key word is educate."
Alert recognizes and is in-
volved with the rights and pro-
blems of physically limited stu-
dents.
Handicapped Awareness Week in
April was Alert's awareness-
raising effort. Sponsored in
conjunction with the Oregon
Architectural Barriers Council,
the week was devoted to publi-
cizing needs of and services to
the handicapped and answering
questions about disabilities.
A feature of the week gave
interested persons the oppor-
tunity to spend a day in a
wheelchair to experience some of
the problems faced by handicapped.
Alert sponsored two ongoing pro-
ject-the speakers' bureau and a
three-dimensional University map.
Simonds describes the bureau as
a "consciousness raising panel,"
available to any campus group or
department needing information or
a presentation on handicapped's
problems. Volunteers from the
architecture school assisted in
plans for a 3-D map on the cam-
pus aiding blind persons and
those in wheelchairs to find
routes around campus.
A major goal of Alert is to
improve building accessibility.
Simonds feels there has been
considerable success in this area
with $800,000 set aside in the
next biennium for building reno-
vation.
"Every time we go to the admi-
nistration or the Legislature it
benefits everyone. No one is hurt
by accessibility," says Simonds.
Lack of funding and volunteers
hurt the program. "If there's
any minority on campus that needs
funding it's this one," says
Darrel Ackerman, Alert member.
Alert increased its volunteer
work force through ESCAPE which
offered credit to students.

The Gay People's Alliance (GPA)
provides an opportunity for gay
people to organize and work on
specific goals as well as participate
in social activities.
The alliance works toward goals
in three areas: social, political
and educational. The GPA works
to organize ways for gay people to
get together, supports bills which
call for equal rights for gays, and
works on various methods of
education.
Some of these educational
projects include panels at schools
and churches, counseling and
referral and a Gay Studies class

Projects are designed to give
nongays a look at the realities of
the gay communities and to affirm

as well as the gay community.
Gay Pride Week during fall term,
is devoted to films, speakers, panels
and a dance.
Below: In June, Jai Roberts (left) and other
gays held a march to protest unfair treatment

The University Food-Op began
operation as an experimental
program in November with the
pu rpose of loweri ng food costs for
students. The program has operated
on a full-time basis since January
with approximately 400 members
taking advantage of its services.

Designed to aid women in their
search for information, skills,
tools and s-ervices which will help
them gain autonomy in a sexist
culture, the Women's Referral and
Resource Service was created to
fill a gap left by the former
University Feminists group.
Their referral service keeps on
file information concerning health
services, birth control, abortion,
pregnancy, all types of counseling,
legal aid, women-oriented business
and sports.
The group initiated the Festival
of Women's Films, to become an
annual event. The festival consisted
of a series of women-produced
films. Proceeds from the week-long
event went to aid the referral
service.
In conjunction with the
countywide movement, the referral
service sold rape whistles and
instituted a rape team/committee.

"We're here to act as a liason
between the individual student and
the available services and
departments on campus," says Peer
Academic Counseling and Evaluation
(PACE) Director Karen Gegner.
76 - pace, students and seniors
A new agency funded by the
ASUO in November 1975, PACE
refers students with problems to
appropriate campus agencies and
trains student counselors to handle
problems directly in the PACE
office. It also makes field placements
of volunteers in various counseling
offices.
Volunteers receive a minimum
of two hours of practicum credit for
time spent in the office, in regular
training seminars and working on
individual projects.
In its first year of operation,
PACE produced a training manual
for campus offices, and the Campus
Pacer, a periodical "Handbook for
Campus Survival." Other activities
included a project with dormitory
resident assistants, an Academic
Advice and Information Faire and a
seminar with the Learning Resources
Center, training athletes to counsel
other athletes.

problems. Below: Karen Gegner and Bill

The Gerontology Association
attracted students, faculty and
members of the community who
sought "to promote interest in the
field of gerontology."
Each term the ASUO-funded
organization planned a community
education program related to
Oregon's senior citizens. Fall term
the program consisted of a panel
discussion on House Bill 2163, a
$1 million appropriation for
"supportive services" for the
elderly. Rep. Ralph Groener, Joanne
Gulsvig, director of the local
Homemakers Service; Ruth
Shepherd, former member of the
Governor's Committee on Aging,
Iderly, Gerontology Association,
local senior citizens
and Paul Munsen, administrator at
Edgewood Nursing Center were
panel members.
Winter term the association
published a brochure on services
available at Lane Community
College and University. The spring
program featured a workshop
entitled"A Coming of Age,"
conducted by Ken Dytchtwald of
the Berkeley Sage Project, which
views aging as "the creative
interplay of the forces of life rather
than as a deterioration process."
Other association projects
included publication of a newsletter
and field placements for students
seeking experience in gerontology.
The association also worked closely
with Friendship with the Elderly,
Gray Panthers and the Eugene
Widowed Services.
A 61-year-old woman with failing
vision called Friendship With the
Elderly asking for help to read the
fine print in the Oregon Driver's
Manual. Someone was found to
help her.
Friendship With the Elderly aids
senior citizens with a variety of
problems and helps bridge the gap
between young and old.
Coordinators Carla Collins and
Elizabeth Riley placed volunteers in
three local nursing homes. The
students visited individuals and
conducted group workshops in arts
and crafts, current events and
exercise.
Other volunteers delivered hot
meals to shut-ins through the Meals
on Wheels program of the American
Red Cross. Often they were the only
outside contact for the seniors. Still
others visited elderly persons in
their homes on an individual basis.
Along with their regular calls
on the seniors, volunteers attended
weekly training seminars and
engaged in special projects; one
industrious student took a group of
seniors to Farrell's Ice Cream
Parlor.
"Age and Youth inAction" is the
motto of the Gray Panthers, a
national political organization
that brings together young and
old for social action.
The Eugene chapter held public
forums on political issues such as
legislative salaries, Medicare and
utility rates, and organized projects
involving students and senior
citizens.
Projects included cross-
generational housing, scheduled
to begin operation fall 1976, and
a co-op providing medication at
reduced rates for both students
and seniors. The Gray Panthers also
worked toward securing discounts
for seniors at campus events and
lobbied for the Generic Drug Law.
Over 2,000 people, young and old,
made candlelight visits to the homes
of Oregon legislators to protest
uti lity rate hikes.

result of Bernau's progressive leadership
construct tennis and handball
courts. The plaintiffs claimed they
should be recompensated because
the courts were used primarily for
classes and the general public. The
OSBHE dismissed the threat as an
"erroneous interpretation of the
facts."
But the ASUO returned to nip
another housing fiasco in the bud.
The housing department had been
requesting dorm prepayments of
$150, $100 over the authorized
amount. ASUO officials jumped at
the move, demanding refunds or
face the threat of legal action. The
department acquiesced, admitting it
had not received State Board
approval to charge the higher rate.
Through mutual efforts of the
ASUO and the President's Office,
new efforts began to revise the
13-year-old Student Conduct
Code-a scattered statement that
had undergone numerous changes
since its inception.
A 12-member Ad Hoc Student
Conduct Committee was formed to
make necessary changes. The ASUO
began to look at the code in light of
the Oregon Administrative
Procedures Act (OAPA) and pushed
for committee action.
"The University is blatantly
violating students' individual rights.
Somehow this must be stopped,"
Bernau emphasized. He voiced
concern that under the present
code, students can and are
convicted "on no more than
circumstantial, hearsay evidence."
The code discusses general
policies for student conduct on
campus and lists violations and
sanctions for offenses as well as
describing the conduct system.
Bernau cited a major fault of the
code as its office structure. "As
it stands the coordinator has a
monopoly on power. He employs
both the defender and the
prosecutor, counsels the defendant,
sets and administers the sentence.
In essence he is policeman, judge
and jury." Bernau also claimed the
system served a counseling in "loco
parentis" function, a philosophy he
said was illegal and out-of-date.
"It's ridiculous for the University
to take a 'we'll be your Mommy
and Daddy while you're away from
home' attitude."
The ASUO looked for a complete
overhaul and suggested establishing
an independent defender's office,
ASUO-funded, and separating the
prosecutor from the conduct office.
The ad hoc committee was to
present its findings to the General
Faculty in June but would inevitably
table legislation until fall.
In the midst of Bernau's many
projects, the focus changed to
politicking-the battle was on for
his successor. Six candidates
emerged for the pri mary.
Jack Condliffe, a 19-year-old
economics major, stressed a
restoration of credibility. Davis, a
22-year-old graduate student looked
toward" quality education" as his
major goal. Mark Powell, a junior
in physics, claimed a "Jerry Brown"
approach to government. Political
science junior Arthur Kenny called
for "fiscal conservatism and liberal
activism." Colorful, 37-year-old
freshman Jim "Izzy" Whetstine
vowed he'd make no campaign
promises. (His slogan-Reductio Ad
Absurdium-Cut the Bull.) Jan
Oliver, 27-year-old psychology
major and mother of three, looked
to better relationships with student
programs.
Amidst charges of illegal
campaigning by Davis, he emerged
as Oliver's opponent in the general
election. Oliver won in a run-away
race-1,358 to 643. Her victory
represented the first time in ASUO
history that a black garnered the
top executive spot and only the
second woman to do so.
As June 8, the changing of the
guard, approached, Bernau summed
up his year of efforts. He said he
could "walk out of Suite 4 feeling
good about what he said he would
do and what he accomplished.
"I've been fortunate in having a
staff that has been nearly suicidal in
meeting the problems of the
University and solving them," he
said.
"I hope she (Oliver) is more
successful than I was in dealing with
administrators. I was really naive
when I came into the job, I thought
a lack of tact had prevented us from
accomplishing things; that wit and
persuasion would convince decision
makers. I was dead wrong. Students
actually need power.
"But now it's someone else's turn
to beat their head against the wall.
Given the number of craniums we
have, the wall will eventually give
way or something will at least seep
through its cracks."

Student University Affairs Board
Student board marks second year of cogovernance,
debates 'D' grade reinstatement, collective bargaining
80 - suab
Collective bargaining, the EMU
tavern and teacher-course
evaluations were campus issues
discussed by the Student University
Affairs Board (SUAB). Also hotly
debated was the reinstatement of
the "0" grade, an issue which
remained unresolved in june.
SUAB consists of 18 elected
students who represent each
professional school and college on
campus. They sit on the University
Senate as voting members along
with 36 elected faculty members.
The University Senate, now in its
second year of faculty-student
cogovernance, is a 1974 reformation
of the Faculty Senate.
SUAB has jurisdiction in academic
matters and in activities such as
lobbying at the Oregon Legislature.
The board votes on issues essential
to the quality of education, faculty
tenure and promotion, campus
design, administration and
curriculum.
The General Faculty adopted a
SUAB proposal concerning course
evaluations resulting in the ASUO
course evaluation booklet, utilizing
students' judgments about faculty
member performance in the
classroom, instructional activities,
consultation and advising.
SUAB also reviewed and made
recommendations about alcohol in
the dorms. The final decision by
Gerald Bogen, vice-president for
student affairs, allowed alcohol in
dorm rooms of students over age
21. The plan will be implemented
fall term 1976.
The Information and Grievance
Center, located in the EMU lobby,
was operated by SUAB (formerly by
the ASUO) giving students a chance
to tell SUAB members gripes about
student govern ment or the
University. The center will hopefully
solve what chairperson Dave Walsh
considers SUAB's biggest problem:
awareness of SUAB and its purpose.

$1,318,942.16, $18,220.06 more than
the seven per cent limitation
imposed on student activity fee
increases by the ASUO Executive.
Eager Duck sports fans eat through
a month of negotiations between
representatives of the IFC, ASUO and
Athletic Department (AD) before an
acceptable combination football-
basketball ticket policy emerged.
AD officials contended reserved
seating was the only reasonable way
to control basketball crowds. The
IFC voted for the reserved seati ng
plan (much to the chagrin of
fraternities), but reversed their
decision less than a week later when
Brian Linse and Jim Dulcich presented
a petition signed by 1,290 University
students opposed to the proposal.
AD Director Pete Wingert retorted,
"If we have to go back to unreserved
seating ... no doors will be opened en
masse-it is impossible ... "
The (FC created a barrier with vans
and ropes which effectively solved
the problem and gave students the
right to sit wherever they wanted in
the student seating section.
Spring term, IFC-ASUO budget
deliberations began. KWAX-FM
withdrew a request for dunding and
GOES, a proposed program for gra-
duate students, never showed for its
hearing. Both were zero funded.
The ASUO News Bureau was zero
funded since ASUO programs were not
using its services. However, the
ASUO was funded with a news bureau.
The Erb Memorial Union (EMU)
received $30,000 less than last year,
forcing closure of the building on
weekends during the summer.
The IFC tacked on to the 1976-77 EMU
budget a stipulation that "student
fees can not be used" to cover any
deficits incu rred next year by the
food service "as long as the EMU sells
Teamster Union lettuce or until 80
per cent of the contested unionization
elections in California are unresolved."
Two days after the EMU Board called
the move"a political stance in
defiance of the EMU Board recommendation
to offer both (Teamster or UFW) types
of lettuce," the IFC voted to remove
the stipulation. The IFC claimed
the change had nothing to do with
the EMU Board
The AD took a 10 per cent decrease
in its budget-and made appropriate
revisions regarding student priority
at athletic events. The cut came
because the IFC felt not enough
students would be present for the
first home football game, and that
basketball seating did not warrant
such high funding because the total
number of student seats had actually
decreased since additional seats
were installed. The AD moved student
seats in Autzen Stadium one section
further toward the end zone.
(FC and ASUO officials were "very
displeased" when University President
Wm. Boyd added roughly $30,000 to WIA,
the women's athletic department.
Jamie Burns, IFC chairer, said funding
for such organizations is based upon
participation, and that WIA did not
meet that criteria. The WIA budget
was increased to $85,125 by Boyd.
Burns said $250,000 was pared off
requests submitted to the IFe.
Seven elected representatives
served on the IFD: Jamie Burns,
chairer; Jan Oliver, vice-chairer;
Tamanika Ivie; Glenn Watters; Gary
Feldman; Mayra Nieves and David
Parr. Parr filled a position
vacated by Dave Donley in January.
IFe staff included Cindy Eder,
secretary, and Rosanne Enerson and
jim Maguigan, research assistants.
The IFC worked with the ASUO
Executive in establishing budget-
cou nter-budget deli berations.

Oregon Daily Emerald
I~evised fiscal program, staff cooperation put Emerald b
82 - ode
As the 96-page Fall Orientation
Issue of the independent student
newspaper, the Oregon Daily
Emerald, hits the stands, an editorial
stated the Emerald hoped "to cover
all the angles."
But at the beginning of the 1975-
76 publishing year, the Emerald was
several thousand dollars in debt,
forci ng it to restrict some services
and forcing small newspapers.
Through a revised fiscal program
and cooperation from all staff
members, the Emerald reached
sounder ground fiscally than ever
before in its history.
Repayment of the $20,000 ASUO
loan contracted for use through
paid advertising over three years,
eventually reached the halfway
mark.
The year's financial progression
yielded larger newspapers, more
creative use of photography and
better and more complete
reporting. A commissioned
readership survey helped revise
certain aspects of the newspaper,
and reinforced some experimental
efforts such as sports specials,
including one on the Oregon-
Oregon State Civil War
bout, and well-read sections,
especially the entertainment weekly
supplement, Surface and Symbol.
.Emerald editor Jim Gregory and
managing editor Dennis Pfaff
combined their efforts in a SEARCH
class labeled newswriting for an
Independent Student Publication.
Students were given actual
assignments which were often
published and discussion centered
on aspects of independent
publications. Guest speakers and
critique sessions were also part of
the classes.
Graphic editor Greg Clark also
taught a SEARCH c1ass-
Introduction to Photojournalism.
The effort spawned some talent and
utilized local facilities as well as
exposing noted area
photojournalists' work to the
students.
The Emerald faced its share of
brouhahas including one concerning
Carlo Rossi wine ads-vehemently
disapproved of by the local Friends
of the Farmworkers and Gallo wine
boycott supporters who accused
the Emerald of profiteering from
the ads. However, the Emerald
stood ground with the firm belief
that the advertising manager (who
got most of the flak) should give
equal treatment to all ads that do
not discriminate on the basis of
race, sex or religion.
"Our feeling was that there
should be a separation between
news and advertising such that ads
should not influence news and
further, news should not influence
ads," Gregory said.
But as Gregory later recalled in
the final editorial, "the entire Gallo
ad fiasco was a circus."
k on its feet; readership survey, J-classes conducted
Staff turnover (only four editors
held the same position all year),
electrical wiring problems with the
$60,000 VIP Merganthaler typesetter
(it wasn't compatible with its EMU
home) and office space problems
often had staff members thinking of
changing majors.
Historic events such as the death
of Gen. Francisco Franco (which
the AP wire editor waited for for over
three weeks), the Patty Hearst snafu,
the UFO mystery, the ASUO soap
opera of programs and, last but not
least, the worm in everyone's
pocketbook, the tuition hike, kept
tipewriters clacking in the third
floor EMU offices.
Not ignoring the valuable
journalistic experience available
at the Emerald, the staff invited
noted past staffers and created an
alumni edition with articles of past
days and current events.
Yet through it all, the pervasive
news philosophy, which, besides
the Mr. Coffee machine, kept the
entire crew going was, as voiced by
one employee: "To get the paper
out every day."

Oregana
11975 yearbook highly successful on national, state levels
What's in a name? Would an
Oregana look the same under any
other name? Not according to the
1910 yearbook staff whose editor
wrote:
"Oregana, the Spanish name
for a flower which grows on our
coast, and from which came our
beloved Oregon, seems to be very
appropriate. By its use is signified
that the volume represents the
University of Oregon, and that this
institution is directly representative
of the people of the state. We hope
that in the title Oregana we have
found a name that will carry more
satisfactory connotation with it than
would any of the old ones. It is our
urgent plea that the name
Oregana will become a permanent
fixture in the University of
Oregon."
But after one "death" in 1969
it seemed the 1910 hope would
again be denied with the 1976 effort.
Problems beset the second year
after the revival-from every corner
of the University. Students were
reluctant to buy the 1976 book
during fall registration because the
1975 book had not yet been
distributed.
But then they came ... and kept
coming until the "end of the hall"
office was more storage than
office. Boxes of yearbooks were
piled on boxes of mailers. Staff
members encountered a rash of
difficulties with book mailings
and distribution, the first attempt
after the five-year absence.
Things didn't get better. Editor
Rob Melton attempted for three
terms to obtain a SEARCH class for
staff members, and was foiled every
time. When every University school
and department was approached, all
flatly refused and referred Melton
to the journalism school-the very
school which refused in the first
place. Attempts to obtain a salary
for the editor through the
Incidental Fee Committee failed in
negotiations.
Many staff members who had
been expecting credit for the 15
hours a week they had been putting
in were understandably upset with
the consequences (staffs prior to
1969 were salaried). This yielded a
slow-down in production, although
many continued through the year.
The end result meant that four
people would spend most of their
summer finishing the yearbook,
which was scheduled to arrive near
the first of October.
In an effort to increase
subscription sales (after a financial
setback), the staff sent out letters
to all students' parents who had
not ordered a book-some 12,000. It
took 20 staff members about a
month to complete the process, but
the results were satisfactory.
An attempt to put a computer
card in the spring registration
packet resulted in conflict between
Gerald Bogen, vice-president for
student affairs, and the editorial
staff. After a lot of pleading, the
84
ut problems beset second year staff
staff WaS given the okay-the last
attempt to increase sales to a
break-even level.
The ultimate irony was the
success of the 1975 Oregana on
national and state levels. Associated
Collegiate Press (ACP) rated it First
Class and judge George Schell said,
"Someone had enough guts to go
out on a limb and revive the
yearbook, and this staff is to be
commended for their hard work and
fine efforts. The book is a tribute to
their planning and dedication. It
must have been well-received by
the student body. r' hope there
is a 1976 book to follow this fine
example."
And here it is, despite little
student support and no evident
support from the University
administration. No matter. As a
historical documentation of the
year, covering academic, cultural
and social aspects of University life,
the Oregana has succeeded. But
with the assumed blessing of the
1910 staff we continue as:
Oregana (or-i-gan-e): 1: a
compliation of miscellaneous items
about the University. 2: a collection
of anecdotes or interesting or
curious information about a person,
place or thing.

KWAX-FM
Beall Hall concerts added to fine arts programming
From the top of Villard Hall floats
the classical music of KWAX-FM
91.1, a fi ne arts student-operated
radio station.
The station features public affairs,
interviews in the Eugene-Springfield
area, news, weather, music and
fi ne arts programs. Once or twice
a week, live concerts are broadcast
from Beall Music Hall; the first time
the station has broadcast live music.
KWAX, a National Public Radio
affilliate, also receives programs
from Washington, such as All Things
Considered, an hour-and-a-half
feature news program.
"We like to think of ourselves
as an alternative radio station,"
explains Terry Hastings, promotion
director. "We offer things that no
other radio station has. Our
program is very different."
The station's listeners appreciate
the alternative that KWAX offers.
A listener survey conducted in the
spring showed an overwhelming
support for the station's emphasis
on classical music and fine arts.
Listeners also showed their
support in a crusade to save the
_ KWAX Program Guide. A total of
$967.50 was pledged during a week
featuring live broadcast of the music
faculty's April Fools concert.
Premiums such as an opportunity
to program KWAX-II, the station's
late-night, free-form radio show and
tickets to the Portland Opera were
offered to persons making the two
highest pledges each day. The
guide, previously funded by the
ASUO, sought listener support after
funding was refused.
KWAX is a public broadcasting
station and therefore has no
commercials. It is supported by
the Corporation for Public
,Broadcasti ng, afederally-fu nded
organization, and by audience
donations.

The students work as studio crew,
program directors, engineers and
disc jockeys. Tom Duncan was 1975-
76 program director. Some students
are paid and others receive
broadcasting practicum credit.

Forensics
Debaters knocked speechless
by third-place ranking
Through PL-3, cable channel 7,
University issues and activities are
broadcast to student housing and
approximately 38,000 homes in the
Eugene-Springfield area.
The station is operated primarily
by students. Underclass students
generally serve as crew members,
while juniors and seniors handle
the directing and producing.
Fu nding is provided by the Oregon
Educational Public Broadcasting
Service (OEPBS).
The programs broadcast by PL-3
serve a variety of purposes. Some
are used for direct or supplementary
classroom instruction. Others are
filmed for the OEPBS and appear
on KOAC-TV in Corvallis and
KOAP-TV in Portland.
But the majority of the programs
are designed to serve the students
and inform the public about campus
acitivities. These student-directed
programs include such regulars
as Talk of the T!Jwn, directed by
Aaron Reeves; University News,
directed by Ken Warren; Campus
Round-up, directed by Richard
Cookson, and Chicano Perspective,
directed by Lorenzo Mejia and
Mike Flores.
The station also produced a series
of three programs from the Career
Planning and Placement Service,
dealing with resume writing,.the
job search and how to conduct
yourself in an interview.
The series was produced by Bill
Willingham, program director.
A candidate debate between
ASUO presidential-hopefuls Jan
Oliver and jim DavIS-was featured
by PL-3 during the campaign.
Many films for classes are
scheduled by faculty members when
they don't want to take up class time
showing a film. The production
staff offers instructional videotape
services too.
Traveling throughout the western
states, the University Forensic team
competed in 14 tournaments and
ended its season with an impressive
record in both debate and
individual events.
The debate teams won 68 per cent
of its debates and placed third in
the nation.
Between tournaments, the team
helped host a college meet in the
fall, and an annual high school
meet in the spring. The high school
tournament drew approximately
1,400 students and is one of the
largest in the nation.
Competitive speaking ended in
March, but forensic activities
continued with a spring symposium
program. In this program student
panels spoke to various schools
and civic organizations in the Lane
County area. Topics included penal
reform, changes in the educational
system, youth and age and mental
illness.

Recreational Folk Dance
'We could have danced all night'
The ancient gymnasium in
Cerlinger Hall had an international
atmosphere each Friday and Sunday
evening as folk dance enthusiasts
gathered for free instruction in
dance from around the world.
The campus and community
participants began with an hour of
formal instruction and danced until
their legs gave out-sometimes as
late as midnight. On occasion
the record changers were ready
to quit long before the dancers.
Along with the usual fare of
Balkan, near Eastern, central
European, American and
Scandinavian dances, a number
of special events were available for
hard-core stompers including
several guest artists and a folk dance
band from San Francisco.
Linda Hearn of the University
dance department taught one
afternoon swing workshop and
Jerry Duke, also of the department,
conducted an Appalachian clogging
workshop. Teaching at the regular
sessions was open to anyone with
a strong heart and varied from
night to night, with about five
regulars doing most of the
instructi on.
Director Ralph Walden, under
the supervision of an
ASUO-appointed Steering
Committee coordinated the
bunion-studded program.
Below: Newcomers and oldtimers come
together twice a week to participate in such
folk dances as those from the Balkans,
Central Europe, Far East and others upon
request.

YMCA/YWCA
Interest rekindled by community interaction progralTls
Student involvement in YMCA
increased two-fold, says Kurt Larson,
Campus Young Men's Christian
Association (YMCA) director.
This new involvement, on various
interest levels, stems from expansion
of YMCA programs on campus.
Increasing the YMCA Board of
Directors to 26 members, Youth in
Sports and Y camps were all part of
the broadened involvement.
University students gain experience
as counselors and camp and youth
directors in these and other areas.
Fall term YMCA arranged
temporary housing for students who
arrived in the area without a place
to live. A counselor was also on
campus to assist veterans.
Campus YMCA became a
full-time operation after a merger
with Central Lane Family YMCA.
Larson says this was the most
important event of the year as it
was necessary, financially, to
perpetuate the organization on
campus.
Also alive and well is the YWCA.
The campus Young Women's
Christian Association (YWCA) of
today hardly resembles its first year
in 1893 as the oldest women's
organization on campus. The
guiding imperative of the YWCA is
to eliminate racism.
University students can interact
with Eugene residents through
YWCA programs. The Big Brother
and Big Sister program provides
University credit by becoming a
friend to a younger person.
Exceptional Friendship program
links volunteer friends with
mentally retarded and handicapped
persons of all ages much like Big
Brothers and Big Sisters.
Companions in Action is the same
type of matching program with
senior citizens.
The YWCA reflects its origins as a
women's organization through a
weekend in October, a rape
workshop, a five-week Assertiveness
Training for Women workshop and
the Dove's Eye Card Shop.
Below: A smiling face or two is the most
beautiful sign of gratitude a volunteer for
the Exceptional Friendship program can

High School Equivalency Program
I-IEP threatened with cancellation of funding,
J)rovides educational opportunity to 180 students
90
The U.S. Labor Department said it
could no longer fund the nation's
High School Equivalency Program
IHEP) which exists at the University
and 13 other campuses.
The program faced cancellation
Aug. 31 if federal or state support
was not received by that time.
Members of the Oregon Congressional
delegation searched for alternative
ways of funding HEP at Oregon.
HEP has helped over 1,000
students from migrant and seasonal
farmworker backgrounds. The
program draws students from
families of migrants and farmworkers
in Oregon, Idaho and northern
California.
HEP worked with 180 students in
the 10-month University program,
endeavoring to provide the
educational opportunity necessary
for participants to pass the General
Education Diploma (GED) test for
high school equivalency. The HEP
idea orginated at the University
eight years ago.
The program also offered guidance
to the student after the GED is
obtained, helping students to find
employment or assisting in plans
for further educational or
vocational training.
If HEP is canceled, what will
happen?
"These young people will be
forced to continue to exist in the
cycle of poverty," said Enrique
Gallegos, HEP program director.
"They simply will be neglected again
as far as education or social
opportunity is concerned."
Gallegos predicts options would
be limited to seasonal farm work,
without entrance to college,
vocational training or a job
provided by a high school
equivalency certificate.
Terry Grates, a University HEP
student saind, "HEP is one of the
most fantastic things that has ever
happened to me. This program has
helped me find what I want most
out of life."
HEP sponsors group activities and
provides room and board and
basic health care for students.
"The population we're serving is
not limited to Mexican-Americans,"
said Gallegos, "but that is the
predominant ethnic group
represented in the migrant and
seasonal farmworker population in
the northwest. One of the major
problems of both parents and
students is a lack of proficiency in
English."
"HEP has changed many lives,"
Gallegos noted.
He tells, for example, about a
student who arrived on campus not
speaking a word of English. The
student spent two days in his
dormitory room without eating.
But he went on to complete the
HEP program, entered the
University, earned a mathematics
degree and completed his second
year of teaching math to HEP
students while completing his
master's degree in mathematics.
Gallegos likes to think of the
words of another HEP graduate as
the program's motto: "I believe
I can make it now."
"They don't leave here with a
degree," said Gallegos. "They're
still untrained. But they do have a
tool that gives them a start."

symposium on "Asians in America,"
a performance by a Filipino
dance group from Seattle and an
Asian American women's group.
The group also published a
quarterly resource guide, "The

people for Asian Americans and
various University departments.
Members also worked to develop
communication between Asian stu-
dents and the local Asian community.

Cinco de Mayo fared as the most
prominent event of the Movimiento
Estudiantil Chicano de Aztlan
(MEChA), the University's Chicano
student organization.
Combi ned with the Que Pasa Raza
conference, this traditional
Mexican festival was celebrated
with an authentic Mexican dinner
program in the EMU and a semi-
formal dance at the Eugene Hotel.
The theme for the celebration
was "Indio-Hispano-Chicano," the
Tri-CentenniaI1976.
Other MEChA activities included
speakers, movies and work toward
establishing Chicano studies and
bilingual, bicultural classes.
Community organizers Carlos
Monriguez and Lucia Pena spok6
about the Farmworkers' Movement
at several meetings, and MEChA's
Chicano Broadcasting Unity in-
terviewed spokespersons from the
Eugene Friend of the Farmworkers
for broadcast on local television.
MEChA's involvement with the
farmworkers was an ongoing acti-
vity.
Through its program activities
MEChA sought to increase aware-
ness of Chicano culture, philo-
sophy and values, for the student
body and the entire community,
and to alleviate the sense of
alienation felt by many Chicano
students. It represented Chicano
students in campus political
discussion and attempted, through
Chicano Broadcasting Unit films
and programs such as Cinco de
Mayo, to stimulate communication
between the University's Chicano
and Anglo populations.

Black kids learn
cultural identity
The Black Student Union (BSU)
sought to give students a "psychic
turf" and broaden multi-racial
communication and understanding
within the University.
The BSU's most prominent tool
for broadening communication was
the Black Arts Festival in May. Built
around the theme, 360 Degrees
From a Black Perspective, the
festival gave students an
opportunity to learn about black
culture, by exposing them to black
educators, performers, artists,
fashions and food.
Events included speeches, a
street fai re, plays, a benefit dance,
a children's choir concert and a
black fashion show.
The BSU also sent out press
statements, held press conferences,
and sent letters to local media, in a
further attempt to increase
communication.
The groups goals included
facilitating interaction between
black students, students and the
general population and creating
cultural programs to provide
information on the black
community.

A black child living in Eugene has
special problems. He may be the
only black child in his school-he
knows he's black, but he doesn't
exactly know what being black
means.
The 3-D program is trying to help.
The Three Dimensional
Self-Development Program (3-D)
exposes children to their cultural
heritage through classes and films
about historical figures.
Though the program began in
1974 as a project of the Black
Student Union, it received ASUO
funding in the spring and became
and independent agency.
3-D also sponsors recreational
events such as swimming parties,
field trips and track clinics to
provide an informal learning and
coping setting. Children with
scholastic difficulties or with
problems hindering academic
growth can get help from tutors.
Director Yolanda Russell and her
staff of ESCAPE volunteers plan to
expand the program to include
other minority group children.

Traditional luau
revived in spring
Teepees popping up in the warm
May weather, drums echoing in the
distance and brightly colored
costumes all typified the Native
American Student Union's (NASU)
spring powwow.
Indians from all around the
Northwest gathered together to
celebrate their heritage. Dancing
contests and drumming contests
were only part of the festivities.
Fellowship and a fish fry highlighted
the weekend.
Although the NASU is mainly a
social organization, other events
were sponsored to assure the
continuance of the organization.
A symposium saw concerned
Indians from Oregon meeting
together and voicing grievances
about the quality of higher
education Indian students are given
at the University. A result of this
meeting was the installation of the
Oregon Indian Higher Education
Association.
Dennis Banks was a featured
speaker sponsored by NASU in
conjunction with the Student Bar
Association and the EMU Cultural
Forum. The co-founder of the
American Indian Movement, Banks
spoke about his fight against
extradition to South Dakota and
his return to the spiritual tradition
of his people.
After his presentation, NASU
invited Banks to the Longhouse for
a press conference and a
get-together with student union
members.
Below: Native American chants and dancing

The Hawaii Club is back, luau and
all.
The traditional event was revived
in the spring, and though it was not
nearly the size of previous luaus,
the club counted it as a success.
The Hawaii Club was virtually
extinct since the 1972 luau, which
brought 600 people to McArthur

feet, the club started organizing the
1976 luau in October on a smaller,
more manageable scale to avoid the
problems of serving 600 people.
The club planned a quality affair

serving 156 with more being turned

The club imported ingredients

The Office of Student Services
experienced major changes with the
designation of an Orientation Of-
fice as the center to coordinate
all University Orientation activi-
ties.
The Orientation Office, under
the direction of Neil Murray,
consisted of former Student Ser-
vices staff, and worked closely
with the parent office. It aimed
to bring all new-student orienta-
tion programs under the same
goals and procedures. Major
programs were Early Orientation,
New Student Week and Foreign
Student Orientation.
In addition, the office served
in an advisory capacity to all
University offices and suggested
various programs to make orienta-
tion a more widespread endeavor.
Student Services Director Shirley
Wilson and her staff aided stu-
dents in solving administrative
and academic problems, and dealt
with specific students' problems
such as scholastic deficiency,
transfer problems and emergency
or crisis situations.
Life-Long Learning Services
was initiated to facilitate the
educational reentry of "non-
traditional" students (older
students, physically handi-
capped, part-time students) to
the University.
A special student population
Student Services assists is the
physically limited. Aid includes
mobility training for the visually
impaired, assignment to accessible
dormitories for wheelchair students
and registration assistance.
Both the Orientation Office and
Student Services were "red-tape
cutters" for the student popula-
tion-something which soothes
even the savage student.
According to some job experts,
75 per cent of all job openings
are never advertised. So how do
students find out about these jobs?
The Career Planning and Placement
Below: Pre-registration is necessary for such
popular classes as speed reading and
improving study skills.
Service (CPPS) is available to stu-
dents and University alumni to
assist them in locating summer and
full-time employment.
However, the services don't stop
here. The CPPS also offers work-
shops to help students write re-
sumes, practice interview tech-
niques and prepare a file or port-
folio.
In the main office is a large
bulletin board bearing job open-
ing announcements and a recruiting
schedule. Brochures from active
recruiters are also available, and
students and alumni are encouraged
to learn about a firm before going
to an interview.
CPPS offers interview practice

have increased yearly.
The center offers non-credit
courses in areas such as speed

skills and individual tutoring.
The classes are open to both the
students and public and cost $5 to

In addition to the various courses,
the center also boasts a small
library and test file.
Although advertising has been
kept to a minimum, several courses
have become so popular that stu-
dents have found it necessary to
pre-register. One of them is
speed reading. In an eight-week
course, the average student nearly
triples his rate and improves his
comprehension by 82 per cent.

Drug Information Center

J)ublishes booklet on 'shrooming'

96
Two drug alerts were issued by the
Drug Information Center (DIC)-
one a "speed" alert-a service
provided by the center's drug
analysis program. When University
students experienced the
psycilosibin mushroom craze (better
known as "shrooming"), DIC
furnished a comprehensive booklet
on types of mushrooms, their
location and toxigenicity.
"We try to promote decision-
making skills," said Wayne Hager,
program coordinator of the DIe.
"You make the decision on whether
to use the drug so you need
information to base that decision
on. We provide that information,"
he said.
ASUO incidental fees provide
only 26 per cent of the total DIC
budget, while 40 per cent of the
program's clients are University
students, Hager said. The rest of the
money comes from grants, contracts
and subcontracting.
The center received a $3,000
grant from the State of Oregon
Mental Health Division in October,
providing drug and alcohol related
information to residents in Lane,
Linn, Benton and Jackson counties.
Stude nts ca n get aII the
information they need about drugs,
legal and illegal, at the DIC because
"no other place in the state provides
our service," Hager said.
Program changes included a
Student Drug Survey-an attempt
to discover students' drug habits,
including suggestions to help
improve DIC services.
Besides providing a library of
reference material and free drug
analysis, the DIC also gives training
sessions to Crisis Center staff and
Student Health Center nurses. A
DIC staff member regularly speaks
at Health 150 and 250 classes.

its reference library, legal or illegal, as well

community coordinator that is
designed to help people. It moves
information from one person to
another, from someone with a
problem to someone who can
help. It serves as a storehouse of
information on a grassroots level.
Switchboard relies on local
people to find the dogs and riders
and briefcases and to provide up-
to-date information on personal
services, including meetings and
local events. Switchboard operators
also answered hundreds of calls
from people who need something
constructed or repaired and are
reluctant to call a commercial
business.
According to Dick Wolf, who
became director in the spring, the
agency received over 22,000 calls
in a six month period ending Dec.
31,1975. About 40 per cent of those
calls were from University students,
according to Switchboard figures.
The ASUO gave Switchboard
$300 last year, according to Director
Bill Kittredge, but Incidental Fee
Money represents only part of the
Switchboard budget. Lane
Community College, Pacific
Northwest Bell, Renaissance Fair
(Oregon Country Fair), Hoedads
(a tree-planting cooperative) and
private citizens also provide funds.
During IFC budget hearings,
Switchboard requested almost
$1,200, $900 more than the previous
request. The extra money, according
to Kittredge, is needed to pay higher
phone bills and for new equipment.
Switchboard, open 10 a.m.-12
p.m., is operated by 20-30 persons.
Their phone number is 686-8453.
Student Health Center
Health Center concerned about swine flu epidemic,
plans mass University vaccination in Mac Court
With the national concern of a
possible swine flu epidemic, the
Student Health Center worked with
the Lane County Health
Department, preparing to vaccinate
the entire University.
"We might have to use McArthur
Court and just line people up and
send them through," said center
director Dr. Avard Long.
The pu rposes of the center are to
safeguard the students' health, to
teach the value of preventative and
curative medicine, and to provide
a healthy environment in which to
live and work.
In meeti ng its pu rposes, the
center offers a wide range of
services. Among them is general
medical attention, family planning,
counseling, minor surgery,
psychiatric treatment and limited
physical therapy. An infirmary,
24-hour emergency serviceand a
registered pharmacy are also
available.
The center is supported by
student health fees, and minimal
service charges.
Only students who have enrolled
r
for the current term are eligible for
treatment at the center.
A survey conducted by Paul De
Young, a graduate student, showed
that a majority of students are
satisfied with center services and
about a third of them would be
willing to pay more (health fees
are $16.50 per term).
Students indicated in the survey
a need for dental and gynecological
services.
The center serves an average of
300 to 350 persons a day. Ten full-
time doctors and 15 full-time nurses
are employed. The center operates
with about a $1 million budget.

Eager to take part in their
children's college years, the
Mother's and Dad's Clubs sponsor
events to involve parents and to
interest students.
Dad's Day in February was
co-sponsored by the freshman class
and the Dad's Club. The day's
activities included a pancake brunch
at the EMU, campus tours and a
spaghetti dinner with guest speaker
Gerald Bogen, vice president of
student affai rs.
Parents Weekend, an annual
event in May, is planned by the
Mother's Club. The Canoe Fete,
tug-of-war, Centennial Potpourri
and a concert headlining Mason
Williams conducting the Eugene
Symphony Orchestra were the
weekend's highlights.
Individually the clubs undertake
different projects. In celebration of
the centennial, the Oregon
Mother's Club put together a
special cookbook including favorite
recipes from Oregon mothers and
even Gov. Bob Straub and
Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis. Line
drawings of the University are
included with the 350 recipes.
A "coming out" luncheon in
April introduced the cookbook.
The Mother's Club also sponsored
the New Student Week housegoods
sale, a flea-market type affair. In
addition to regular items, the
mothers made a quilt by hand to
sell.
Funds collected were used to
redecorate the Career Planning and
Placement Center, and $1,500 was
donated to the School of Music.
The donation was used to purchase
equipment making it possible for
statewide broadcasts of Beall Hall
concerts.
The club also offers student
financial assistance through a
scholarship program.
Funds were collected by the Dad's
Club to complete payment of new
band uniforms. The club also
awarded scholarships to students,
aided with Summer Orientation
Registration for incoming freshmen,
as well as promoting strong living
organizations, both Greek and
independent.
Every parent of a University
student is automatically a member
of the Mother's or Dad's Club.
Below: An old-fashioned quilting bee brings
mother's club members together each year
to make a quilt to sell, which helps raise
money for scholarships.
May auld acquaintance be forgot?
Not if the Alumni Association has
anything to do with it.
Anyone who has attended the
University for at least one term is a
member of the Alumni Association.
The organization's purpose is to
keep track of alums for the rest of
their lives. It also serves as a device
so alumni can keep in touch with
the University. To facilitate this
commu nication the association
sponsors about ten reunions a year.
Graduates from 1926 and earlier
have a reunion the weekend of June
commencement. Other weekend
reunions are centered around home
football games.
The Alumni Association also
organizes and sponsors trips during
the year. Fifty or more alums get
together and visit such places as
Scandinavia and Tokyo.
Alumni who don't live in Oregon
also have the opportunity to get
together before and after away
sporting events involving University
athletes. The association tries to
provide alumni with blocks of
tickets for these events.
Scandinavian trip for old, new graduates
The Alumni Association also
sponsors two publications, Old
OregQ!l magazine, a quarterly, and
OregQ..!} Today newspaper.
Designed to keep alumni informed
about what's happening around the
University, these publications
contain articles written by alums
and students and are sent free of
charge to all members.
To commemorate the University's
centennial, the association
presented musical shows and slide
shows around the state. The slide
exhibit is part of a public relations
program to create awareness about
the University throughout the
state.
The Alumni Association joins with
the senior class in sponsoring the
annual Career Faire. The Faire
provides students with an
opportunity to talk to resource
people in over 50 ca reer fields.
Personnel from the Counseling
Center are available to answer
any questions students may have
about aptitude tests and interest
inventories. General career
information is also available.

Editor's note: Jennifer Blumberg,
former editor of the Oregon Daily
Emerald's entertainment section-
Surface and Symbol-wrote a story
as a parting gift as she resigned her
post. The following is a condensed
version:
The world of show biz-rubbing
elbows with the celebrities, setting
up interviews for McCoy Tyner,
driving out to the airport to pick up
Ceorge Carlin, running through a
sound check with Chuck Mangione.
Sound like a soft job?
Ah, but there is more to the role
of sponsoring a performance than
working with the star(s) of the show.
A lot more.
Just ask Cultural Forum members
Sue or Garret or Jim, Frank or Rick.
But don't ask them a week before a
particular performance or for about
two days afterward (post-
performance let-down-a time for
unwinding, recovering and either
rejoicing or trying to figure out why
that particular group or person did
not sell tickets).
They'll tell you about the phone
calls that were placed, the contracts
that were read and re-read and
finally signed, and the hassles that
were endured. And the
disappointment of a last-minute
cancellation is an ever-present
possibility.
Cultural Forum is a division of the
EMU Program Office, and is divided
into five categories: Contemporary
Issues (Rick Worthington); Folk
Music and Jazz (Sue Nordquist),
Film and Literature (Garrett Smith),
Popular Music (Jim Reinking) and
Performing Arts (Frank Geitner).
Cultural Forum is funded by
incidental fees. Any profit made by
a performance or productions goes
back into bringing more talent of
that kind.

George Carlin
Jan. 21, 1976-Acclaimed jazzman
Chuck Mangione "chased the
clouds away" for the receptive
EMU Ballroom audience on his
flugelhorn.
Mangione and his quartet, Gary
Niewood on saxophone and flute,
Chip Jackson on bass, and Joe
LaBarbera on drums, entertained
about 800 jazz enthusiasts with a
distinctive musical form-sweet
simple melodies progressing into
complex dancing variations.
The leather-hatted leader was
greeted with solid applause at every
solo and he displayed some
imaginative keyboard work on
several selections.
Niewood and Mangione's precise
flugelhorn-saxophone exchange
proved a highly-intense finale that
brought the audience to its feet.
Oct. 20, 1975- Stanley Turtentine,
41 clad in a blue velor suit gave the
audience just what they came for-
mellow music, bouncy music and
music that left them just plain
spellbound.
A happy, carefree mood captured
the onlookers during "On Pieces of
Dreams." Following this mellow
rock-jazz sound, Turrentine
exploded with the biting, arrogant
"Don't Mess with Mr. 1"- dynamic
Mr. T at his best.
John Miller, piano; James Leary,
bass, and Druno Carr, drums,
performed their best Turrentine.
The piece, written by Miller,
featured intense piano work and a
flashy acoustic bass solo.
Leading the crowd's enthusiastic
clapping, Turrentine and the band
left the EMU Ballroom with a
rollicking blues-jam encore.
Nov. 22, 1975-"1 didn't know if
this was Corvallis or you who were
the Ducks. 1thought for a minute
that you might be the Beavers, and
I knew I could have fun with that
one."
And a crowd of 4,000 Ducks at
Mac Court listened to George
Carlin expound on the humanness
of us all in his comedy.
Carlin moved into comedy
monologues that took the audience
on a ride through the rapids of
Carlin's stream of consciousness.
Carlin's airing of the dirty laundry
of our sub conscious was refreshing,
even to the prudish.
After ten minutes anything was
funny: Carlin taking a break was
funny; Carlin referring to his notes
was funny; Carlin swallowing water
was funny.
His convolutions of the
language-"If language is our
servant, let's put the son-of-a-bitch
to work"-his oh-so indentifiable
signs of joy when he describes his
finding an empty elevator-"Hot
shit, my own elevator!"-and his
verbal double takes-"I'm into a
lifestyle that doesn't require my
presence"-only amplified the
good feelings.
The standing ovation at the end
proved Carlin's mastery at ripping
the norms and language of today.

Apri/15, 1976-They're hot,
movin' like a musical steamroller
chuggin' and rolling' a steady beat-
the acapella "band" called the
Persuasi ons.
And they were infectious. The
blend of Jimmy (Bro) Hayes, Joseph
(jesse) Russel, Willie C. Daniels and
Herbert (Tubo) Rhoad, perfected
over a decade ago, kept the EMU
Ballroom audience tappin' toes
without a drum beat.
The Persuasions' distinctive style
and uniqueness captured the
audience as well as the vocal sound
that seemed to have an instrumental
base, but didn't.
As was expected steamrollin'
sounds boiled at the finale and
brought the audience chugging'
to its feet.
Apri/15, 1976-As the high energy
of the Persuasions hung in the air,
the Meters took the stage and tried
to keep "c\leryone in the groove."
But the band that has been
together for more than a decade
couldn't keep the audience happy-
many left after the second number.
Perhaps the Meters, billed as a
band with graceful reggae funk that
grew from the New Orleans legacy,
over did it-with loudness. The
gracefulness just wasn't there ..
Nov. 9, 1975-San Francisco's
funk band, Cold Blood, played to a
bored audience.
After a four-month readjustment
period in 1973, Cold Blood went on
the road with music that would
satisfy an AM audience.
Boring solos were interspersed
with a few good tunes that sparked
off the old Cold Blood style. Even
the stage appearance was filled
with the "slap-and-jive" attitude
typifying the rest of the rock
world.
Nov. 9, 1975-After Cold Blood's
disappointing act, Rufus didn't help
to satisfy the already uninspired
audience.
Chaka Khan, although bedazzling
in tight blue pants and an elaborate
Indian headdress, didn't have the
vocal power that comes across in
album form. The instrumentalists
put out the Rufusized beat, but that
wasn't enough to send the audience
rockin' and rollin'.
And to top that, Rufus refused to
return even as the consescending
audience stomped for an encore.
cold blood, rufus -109
Apri/26, 1976-Somehow it
seemed something would go
wrong. And so it did.
Ihe scheduled 8 p.m. "Evening
With Kenny Rankin" didn't get off
untiI9:30. The delay was caused by
the ironic labor of crews setting up
elaborate lighting trees that out-
hummed Rankin and were
dispensed with, with audience
approval.
But it took even longer for Rankin
to complete his Joh nny Carson
monologue before he settled into
the mellow, jazzy atmosphere of the
album-Rankin.
The amazing jazz/scat style was
even better live, though, and
Rankin's back-up group helped
(but sometimes hurt) the lyric
tll nes.
Between keyboards and guitar
(and jokes) Rankin presented the
EMU Ballroom audience with a
relaxing evening of songs from his
most recent and well-known
albums, "Silver Morning" and
"I nside."
The wait was well worth it.
May 25, 1976-Coming back is
easy to do for a si nger at "sweet
middle age"-and Neil Sedaka was
successful, a term that aptly defines
his re-appearance.
Sedaka held the Mac Court
viewers of teeny-boppers and 50s-
rockers, who remembered the
original "Breaking Up Is Hard to
Do."
An established writer and pianist,
Sedaka proved himself quite a
performer as well. His back-up
group fired up the lyric-maker of
several tunes.
Although "Bad Blood" didn't
sound the same without Elton John,
Sedaka skillfully and delightfully
entertained the audience.
"I did n't have to come back into
this business," Sedaka said, "and if
I'd been restricted to singing my
old hits, I wouldn't have. But I want
to express myself, and I feel I have
something to offer."
His audience agreed.

George Benson
May 7, 1976-"We're caught in
a masquerade."
With that Leon Russell rendition, a
new face of George Benson
appeared-Benson the singer.
Benson's fluid fingers have made
him the youngest most sought after
recording artist in jazz.
The guitarist as well as the singer
was flawless in his two-show EMU
Ballroom performance. Benson,
well-backed by four other talents,
displayed a simple down-to-earth
style, characteristic of his latest
album, "Breezin'."
The spellbound but sweating
audience seemed a bit cooler as
Benson breezed through with an air
of musical sophistication.
Feb. 29, 1976-Few people are
unaware of Dan Fogelburg after his
explosive performance at Mac
Court.
Describing the type of music
Fogelburg performs is like discribing
what sport Ronnie Lee plays.
Opening his show with a string of
solos, Fogelburg sang of love lost
and love found. Mellow and clear
for the first few, he followed with
a few foot stompers and hard rock
pleasers. Whatever mood existed,
he had a song for the occasion.
Fool's Gold, a band from Los
Angeles gaining in popularity,
backed Fogelburg for the last half of
the show. Loud rock 'n' roll
dominated the few solos by Fool's
Gold, increasing their popularity
with the foot-stomping audience.

Elizabeth Cotton
March 8, 1976-A slick concert
package isn't her style. Eighty-three-
year-old Elizabeth Cotton plays to
her friends and just entertains. Folk
tunes and gospel singing
accompanied by unrehearsed talking
makes this woman such a special
favorite with everyone.
Starting at a very early age, she
practiced on her brother's guitar,
but stopped playing for 35 years
until she met the Seeger family.
Her friends in the audience and
Hazel Dicken and Alice Girrad on
stage helped her sing old favorites.
The all-jain-in songs created a good
time and good feelings.
March 3,1976-Top jazz pianist
McCoy Tyner and his quartet graced
the EMU Ballroom stage in a rare
west coast appearance.
Tyner won acclaim as sideman to
the late John Coltrane during 1960-
65 before forming the present
quartet.
Unlike most modern jazz, Tyner's
music is purely acoustic. His
powerfu I black chords, crashi ng
dissonances and propulsive rhythm
on the acoustic piano pleased every
jazz fan while the quartet provided
rock-solid backing.
"Atlantis," one of Tyner's best
known compositions put a highly
energetic finish to the group's
performance.
Feb. 19, 1976-After her
112 - cotton
childhood stardom and subsequent
fading from the footlights, Janis
Ian returned to the stage-this time
to Mac Court.
Her latest hit"At Seventeen,"
seemed to assure the audience of a
good comeback performance. But
with the several excess people on
stage, the small-in-structure Ian
was often lost in the crowd.
Alone with her guitar, lan's lyrics
of sentimental, romantic days left a
soft atmosphere after Loudon
Wainwright's rollicking craziness.
But the final encore was marred
by faulty equipment and Ian and
her band walked off the stage-and
never got to sing "Society's Child."
Feb. 19, 1976-lt was hard to know
whether to laugh or to cry at Loudon
Wainwright's songs performed at
his Mac Court appearance.
The lyrics were fu nny but at the
same time so real-life that the
audience was caught in an
embarassed titter.
Wainwright would alternately
strum his guitar and pound it to
death at key poi nts in each song.
But dressed in grey flannel slacks
and a pin-stripe shirt, cuffs rolled
up, Wainwright also offered some
electric numbers with Janis lan's
back-up band.
He finished his bit with the
crowd joining in on "Dead Skunk
in the Middle of the Road."

Nov. 13, 1975-A hush fell over
the 400 attentive persons watching
the tall, slender young man in
white-face, black tights and striped
shirt silently appear on the EMU
Ballroom stage. Mimist Dan Kamirr
had his audience under his spell.
Kamin opened his "Silent
Comedy" with no introduction-
merely a placard stati ng the title
of his first sketch.
His expertise was more than
evident as spectators began to" see"
the wall Kamin was leaning against,
the heavy load he was pushing and
and the car he drove.
A flexible repetoire of about 20
scenarios and superb muscle control
and agility proved Kamin's ability.
He portrayed such familiar scenes
as "commercials" and "Restaurant,"
to abstractions such as "Idea" and
"Self Portrait."
Kamin used only one prop-a
light bulb in "Idea"-and a taped
voice during an anactment of
God's creation of Earth and Adam
and Eve, a nontraditional mime
technique, yet very effective.
Judging by the spontaneous
standing ovation, Kamin had
produced the unseen successfully.
Feb. 5-10, 1976-"Total theater"
visited Eugene for six days in the
guise of the Theater of-the Open
Eye, founded by internationally
famous dancer and director Jean
Erdman and her husband, author
Joseph Campbell.
The l8-member troupe of actors,
Theatre of Open Eye
dancers and musicians produced an
integration of several art forms.
The name Open Eye comes from
ancient mythology.
'·'We want a name that would be
a symbol integrating all art forms,
not just dance and drama, and we
decided upon the Open Eye from
mythology, that awareness which
comes through a total
understanding of the rhythms within
all art and within us all," Erdman
said.
"Moon Mysteries," "Primordial
Voices," "An Event in the Time of
Moulting Swans" and "Orphee"
were four plays presented by the
New York-based company as well
as various free workshops.

and information.
The Street Faire brought local
artisans and talent to 13th Avenue.
Balloons and a choir of Black

kept students entertained
in-between classes.
The Rev. Cecil Williams of Glide
Memorial Methodist Church in San

Cyclone Madrone-Noon Gigs
Fishbowl Follies provides free
entertainment on a regular basis
for University students.
The program is coordinated by
students working through the EMU
Program Office and is financed by
incidental fees. Because the total
budget is relatively small and must
last for the entire academic year,
performance fees are very small.
Performers are generally willing to
receive very little pay in exchange
for exposure and further
development as entertainers.
Noon Gigs, begun in the fall of
1974, was designed as a means of
providing free noon-time
entertainment for students and to
celebrate the opening of the EMU
new addition.
The program takes place twice a
week, from noon to 1 p.m. on the
ground floor of the EMU East Wing.
Working through the EMU Program
Office, students coordinate this
program and finance it in the same
way as the Fishbowl Follies.
Performers are paid a small amount
for their services.

"Man's biggest mistake is saying
he makes no mistakes. Man is
making mistakes and keeps on
making mistakes"-one thought
shared by philosopher-scientist
Buckminster Fuller Oct. 10, 1975,
with his EMU Ballroom admirers.
Fuller presented slides of his
famous geodesic dome and his
latest project involvi ng maps.
He shared views on the several
technological advancements he has
seen during his life, such as the
Wright Brothers, the automobile,
and radio and television.
The Fuller fans sent him off
with a standing ovation and he
left them with a bit of advice: "Be
loud and loving."
Beall Hall was filled with oohs
and ahs as W. Eugene Smith made a
rare and unforgettable presentation
of his photography Nov. 17, 1975,
to a standing room only audience.
Smith, formerly with Life
magazine, told the story of the three
years he and his wife Aileen lived
in the fishing village of Minomata,
Japan. Through words and stark
photographs he depicted the
atrocities resulting from mercury
wastes being poured into the bay
from the village's main industry,
Chisso Chemical.
While photographing the events,
Smith was badly beaten by Chisso
people, damaging his vision and
impairing his rightarm.
The passion and realism of a man
and his world touched every
viewer-Smith is undeniably an
artist in the highest sense.
Daniel Berrigan, along with his
brother Philip, dug a grave in the
White House lawn and were
subsequently jailed.
A notorious anti-war activist and
Jesuit priest, Berrigan shook his
head saying, "It was criminal to
dig an empty grave, but you would
be decorated if you filled one."
Berrigan responded to questions
and expounded on government,
social problems, taxes, elections and
Senate Bilil. He chided government
officials and vowed "to make a life
model of running from office."
The April 14, 1976, EMU Ballroom
presentation peaked at Berrigan's
extended biblical allegory on the
brutal exercise of authority:
"It's the same bloody world
botched by the same bloody
sword."

kind of spirit and look for some

country," Banks said.
Several groups were formed on
campus to support Banks' plea to
stay in Oregon.
Banks concluded with a promise:
"Wherever indignities are found,
that is where I must go, and change
this country around so they will not
stand behind Indian people, but

Art Museum
Artists, sculptors and
photographers from Oregon were
saluted in celebration of the
University's centennial. The salute
opened with internationally-known
Oregonian Morris Graves. His
collection of drawings is the first
New York-based show to premier
in the Eugene area.
Several exhibits displayed weren't
by Oregon artists, but Denmark was
the only foreign showing planned.
The large selection of designs by
prominent Danish designers was
sponsored and funded by the
Ministry of Foreign Affairs of
Denmark. Eugene was chosen
instead of San Francisco, Portland
and other large cities in the
Northwest because of the museum's
reputation.
Exhibits held throughout the year
included soft sculpture, ceramics,
jewelry, watercolors, oils,
photographs, sculpture and other
types of art as wen.

Scapino by Frank Dunlop and Jim
Dale
Directed by Thomas Cressler
Set by Llewellyn Rhoe
Costumes by Mimi Banks
Assistant Director - Jo Leslie
Collier
As newly appointed director of
the University Theater (UT), Dr.
Thomas Gressler came from Battle
Creek, Mich., only to face
multilated, ripped-apart stages and
changes in traditional governance
systems at the UT. It was all planned,
however.
And if UT made a vivid first
impression on him, Gressler
impressed right back with his
debut production of Scapino. A
new director understandably faces
pressure to succeed, and Gressler
rose to the occasion with a
successful production of an
uproarious farce.
As for the torn-up stages,
1975-76 marked renovations of the
Main Stage at the Horace W.
Robinson Theatre, and also the
smaller Arena Theatre and Pocket
Playhouse. The theatrical season
was one of "schedule around the
difficulties," yet with the Main
Stage available for only two months
and the smaller theatres closed
part of the year, the UT still
managed to produce an Albee
Festival of three plays, three major
stage presentations, and four studio
productions.
The traditional executive board of
students and faculty was abolished
and replaced with an advisory
council of six members.
A professional musician, former
advertisement producer and
producer of a Bob Hope television
special, Gressler established a
policy of emphasis on student
participation and brought about
greater contact with the Eugene
community. For example, The
World of Carl Sandburg toured
as a Bicentennial piece to various
places around the state and a
special performance of The Zoo
Story and American Dream was
presented at a Eugene church.
Scapino, Gressler's first
directorial work in Eugene, started
with a mild opening night and grew
to standing ovations. This romp for
kids of all ages included love
complications, pratfalls and pitfalls
onstage and in the audience, and a
tour-de-force performance by
Charles Latourette in the title role.
Latourette's second-act scene as
everything from a British soldier to
a pirate with a squawky parrot on
his shoulder stole the show.
Energetic performances by the
rest of the cast in Nike tennis
shoes contributed to the fun.
In the midst of professional
pressure and drastic circumstances,
Gressler got a rather big foot in the
door at the UT.

An Albee Festival
Written by Edward Albee
Set Design by Jerry Williams
Costumes by Mimi Banks
A festival of plays focusing on
four works of the brilliant American
playwright, Edward Albee,
appropriately and dramatically fit
the antumnal mood of fall term.
Ranging from the searing Who's
Afraid of Virginia Woolf? to the
puzzling Tiny Alice, with the
drama of The Zoo Story and the
absurdity of An American Dream
inbetween, the festival sold out its
run and was heldover into winter
term. Presented in a rotating
repertory style, it was a celebration
of the brooding spirit of Albee.

A bill of two one-act plays made
up one-third of the Albee Festival.
An American Dream and The Zoo
Story, both earlier Albee works,
were presented as one evening's
entertai nment.
Witty humor amused audiences at
both plays. Albee's version of
"while strolling in the park one
day" climaxed with a violent killing.
An American Dream involved
outlandish costumes, an American
family that outdid the Louds (a
television expose of an "average"
American family) and Albee's
version of the boy next door. Odd
characters interested audiences
while plodding pace held them at
arm's length.

Some consider Tiny Alice to be
Albee's finest play, but until
someone understands this puzzling
play, we'll never know fur sure. On
the surface the play dealt with a
wealthy lady bestowing a fortune
to the Church. Brother Julian is
involved as part of the conditions
to which the urbane Cardinal
agrees. Miss Alice, her lawyer, and
her butler know the whole story,
but the audience is left on its own.
The play featured a miniature
castle with a room in which all the
action onstage was depicted. A
heartbeat took up more than just
a moment in the play, and an old
hag turned into a gorgeous young
lady before the audience's eyes.
Jim Bartruff as the butler did not
steal the silver but certainly stole the
show.

Audiences were certainly not
afraid as they packed the Arena
Theatre to view Who's Afraid of
Virginia Woolf? Perhaps the Arena
was an appropriate place to view
the battle of George and Martha-
every lion and Christian for himself.
It was thumbs up for the bravura
acting performances but thumbs
down for the almost constant single
playing level of the production.
A New England college campus
provided the setting for the fun and
games of an alcohol-blurred,
wit-sharpened evening. This play
was made even more gut-rending by
the intimacy and close confines of
the Arena Theatre. Although people
still marvel over the 1965 play, the
1975 production provoked a few
people, too.

Studio
Inti rna te, small productions are
often as exciting as full-scale
spectacles. Sometimes not.
In the Pocket Playhouse, the UT
presented two studio productions:
The Cood Woman of Setzuan by
Bertolt Brecht and She Stoops To
Conquer by Oliver Goldsmith.
Good Woman featured a large cast
performing in the appropriately
flat Brechtian style. She Stoops was
not presented in the standard 18th
century comedy style, but featured
varied styles of acting, cartoon cut-
out props, an odd assortment of
contem porary costu mes and
farcial "I Love Lucy" -like antics.
Unfortunately, both productions
were critically panned.
Critics were a bit nicer to the
Arena Theatre presentations-The
World of Carl Sandburg by Norman
Corwin and The Dance of Death by
August Strindberg. The love-hate
minuet of The Dance of Death, a
classic about a frustrated marriage
and a forerunner of "Who's Afraid
of Virginia Woolf?", presented
difficulties for a college cast. The
cast made a strong effort and a fairly
good, if somewhat rough
production resulted.
Carl Sandburg, a moving portrait
of the American poet-biographer-
composer's creative genius and life,
fared best of the four productions.
This production also toured the
state as an appropriate Bicentennial
piece. Not quite a play, not quite
reader's theatre, the piece brought
one man's soul and expression to
an audience and left the audience
with a little bit of inspiration,
understanding and good feelings.

Carnival ... extravaganza .
multiple constructs of reality .
insanity ... theatrical experience.
All these terms have been used to
describe Prism, a multi-media
theatre piece directed by Jean
Cutler. Performed in the EMU
Ballroom, amidst bomb threats
which were generally ignored,
Prism took place on several stage
areas with the audience left free to
wander and watch at will. Cotton
candy, sno-cones and helium-filled
balloons provided a midway
atmosphere.
Like a prism through which light
reflects in many colors, directions
and angles, the production reflected
extremely varied ideas, emphases
and performance media. A parachute
rose above the ballroom. Costumes
ranged from tacky to glitzy with
everything inbetween. Technical
problems and an overabundance of
noise marred the production.
Among the many acts-which
included singers, carnival barkers,
improvisation groups, films,
magicians-some of the more
noticeable were:Captain America
vs. EI Mongol, the Show Girl, the
Witches from MacBeth, the Black
Images Group parodying an old-
time funeral (for the death of
Prejudice), an operatic tenor
warbling old romantic ballads and
the Lane Community College Dance
Performance Co., choreographed
by Nicola Crafts.

"Dobre" means "good" in
Ukrainian, and Dobre Folk
Ensemble means a good time in
Eugene.
Highly reputed in the Northwest,
the ensemble performed suites of
Hungarian, Russian, Serbian,
Romanian, Israeli, Polish, German,
Mexican and U.S. dances. The
group traveled to several schools
for performances and workshops
and joined in the annual Strovetide
folk festival.
The 18-member group celebrated
its tenth year with an eight-day
concert tour in May. Members
performed and taught in six
Eastern Oregon communities.
Linda Hearn, artistic director
since the ensemble began in 1966,
and Associate Director jerry Duke,
new to Eugene, led the ensemble's
stomping and clogging.
Concert Dance Theatre (CDT)
presented a variety of modern,
jazz and ballet choreography.
The 21-member company, under
the direction of janet Descutner and
assistant directors jenifer Winsted
and Barbara Remington, performed
locally and in the dance
department's studio theater
throughout the year, as well as
appearing in Dance '76.
The CDT's repertory was largely
original material and encompassed
a variety of themes, including
"Americana." In addition to
rehearsal and performance, the
company members assisted with
publicity and costuming.
Dance '76 presented the Concert
Dance Theater and the Dobre Folk
Ensemble in eleven new
choreographed suites as well as
selections from their regular
repertories. Billed as"A Special
Program For America's
Bi-Centennial," Dance '76 included
performances entitled "Red, White
and Blue Rondo," by Descutner,

as well as a host of student and
faculty recitals.
One of the most popular events
was the Chamber Music Series.
Supported by the ASUO, the Eugene
Room Tax Fund, series tickets and
various patrons and donors, the
series offered eight regular concerts
and a bonus concert by Japanese
koto player Shinichi Yuize.
Musicians presented in the series
included the Sofia Soloists of

Athletic Department
Caine won't let sleeping ducks lie, shoots
After last year's Athletic
Department (AD) financial problems,
director Norv Ritchey's job was to
be concerned primarily with fund
drives and promotions, while loc-al
businessman Pete Wingert
attempted to balance the books.
But in an unexpected
announcement Sept. 8, 1975,
Ritchey resigned.
In a letter to University Pres.
William Boyd, Ritchey said,
"Perhaps I have accomplished as
much as I can as your director of
athletics; however, it will be a
privilege to remain a member of
your staff and continue to serve the
University ... "
During Ritchey's five years as
director he successfully fought to
save Oregon's non-revenue
programs from the financial axe
and saw his total program ranked
ninth nationally last year.
In October, Ritchey was named
assistant dean in the College of
Health, Physical Education and
Recreation by Ray Hawk,
vice-president for administration
and finance. Wingert served as
acting athletic director until a
successor was named.
After a five-month search, with
more than 50 people from across
the country applying, a candidate
was found. John Caine, athletic
director at San Jose State, was
appointed as the new director of
athletics at Oregon by Boyd in late
February.
"He is an experienced athletic
administrator," Boyd said, "and
brings to the University an
exceptional record of achievement
in sports administration."
Other candidates considered
were Hindman Wall, director at
Cincinnati; Norm Van Brocklin,
Pro Football Hall of Fame
quarterback; Bob Brodhead, former
president of the Portland Thunder,
and Ray Nagel, director at
Washington State.
Caine joined San Jose State in
138 - athletic department
1972 and was also athletic director at
Cal State-Fullerton from 1968-72.
Caine's greatest abilities, judging
from his experience at San Jose
State, is fundraising-something the
Oregon program needs desperately.
San Jose State's financial situation
was "hurting" when he arrived, but
is now recognized as one of the
few schools operating in the black.
The key to the fundraising lies in the
pocketbooks of alumni, says Caine.
"We have 40,000 alumni but we'll
have to spread to the entire state
and the metropolitan areas across
the country.
"We'll go to any ponds where
ducks sit," he remarked.
Although Oregon's financial base
is not particularly high, Caine
inherited a winner of a program.
While some schools have sacrificed
"minor" sports for football and
basketball, Oregon has not followed
that trend.
Since each of the major sports-
football, basketball and track-help
to finance the rest of the programs,
each must perform at a subsistence
level. The losing streak of the
football team was responsible for
the AD failing to realize $150,000 in
expected gate receipts from games.
During the Utah game, Autzen
Stadium saw the smallest crowd in
its 10-year history-l0,000 loyal
Duck fans.
"We have to get football going,"
said Caine. "Once we do, our
biggest hurdle is over. I have great
confidence in Don Read." Caine is
the creator of the "total
entertainment concept" which
should rejuvenate the football
program in 1976. His package
includes entertainment before,
during and after the games.
After football season was over,
Wingert was tightening the budgets
of the sports program. A proposal
to add 1,500 seats to McArthur
Court was approved by the State
Board of Higher Education in a
move to help the Oregon sports
program regain some of the
monetary losses created by the lack
of football revenue. After an
emergency meeting of the State
Board, Oregon was given final
approval to start the project in early
September. The contractor had the
new seats installed before basketball
season began. The cost of the seats,
$290,000, was financed through a
sponsor drive.
Those wanting seats submitted a
$250 donation, which gave them an
option to buy a seat. The season
ticket was extra. In essence, the
$250 donation paid for construction
of the new balconies. First priority
on the new seats went to Golden
Ducks (contributors to the
scholarship program) and others
who had made contributions to the
University over the years and still
did not have seats. The remainder
were sold on a first-come,
first-served basis.
Earlier in the year, Eugene Fire
Marshall Wendell Wick ordered the
University to comply with the state
building safety code, which meant
366 fewer seats in the student
sections. Therefore, 1,000 of the new
seats were for sale to the general
public while the remaining 500 seats
were allocated to students.
In the middle of all the change
was another consideration-the
Women's Intercollegiate Athletic
(WIA) program, directed by Becky
Sisley. Many were wondering what
effect Title IX would have in
allowing women equal opportunity
in athletics at Oregon.
Sisley said four areas had been
influenced. First, communication
with the administration has
improved. Second, the AD has
agreed to share in the utilization of
the athletic treatment center. Third,
the University approved utilization
of a portion of Gerlinger Hall for a
women's athletic office. And
fourth, there's been greater support
in recognizing the role of women's
athletics.
for high alumni support of athletics
"We feel students are doing their
share," said Sisley. The
administration, though, only came
up with a portion of the money
Sisley felt was essential to lighten
coaches' teaching loads and for
new staff members.
"Oregon's women's program is
above average as far as financial
support for the teams," Sisley said,
"but below average in support for
personnel. We've got 11 sports and
no full-time athletic director."
She believes relying on Title IX is
important, but not to the extent of
being a "women's lib" group
making demands. "Being
reasonable is the most beneficial
way for both the men's and
women's programs to survive."
Despite the economic
disadvantages, Sisley is proud of
the WIA's record. "We have sent
teams to 16 national championships
in two-and-a-half years. Washington
has been to 10, Oregon State to five
and Washington State four in the
same time," she said.
There is a possibility of
combining departments with the
men, said Sisley, "but I think that is
off in the future for us."
Certainly finances have hijinxed
the AD in the past, but Caine
expects much better revenue results
in the future as a result of his
creative thinking-for men's,
women's and minor sports.
He's behind women's programs,
according to Sisley. "I was really
impressed with his broad
background and his knowledge of
Title IX. He seemed very strong on
the women's program," she
continued, "so he should bring in a
much broader perspective."
"I think he's fantastic," said
swimming coach Don Van Rossen.
"In the 17 years I've run the state
high school swim meet, he's the
first athletic director to make a
salutation to me." Van Rossen said
Caine did that during the meet,
"and with his busy schedule, that
shows he's behind the program and
he's behind the coaches."
But Caine credits the coaches for
the success. In describing Oregon's
coaching staff, he simply said,
"Strong right down the line. I've
checked all of their records and I'm
really pleased to be associated with
such a fine staff."
Below: John Caine talks to news media
after University Pres. William Boyd
announced the appointment of Caine as
athletic director.

,,--
Fan-atics survive losses
Tears. Cheers. Bad-call-ref chants.
Disappointments. All in the life
of an Oregon fan.
The original Kamikaze Kids-
Bruce Coldren, Mark Barwig,
Ronnie Lee and Geoff Nelson-
made their last Mac Court
performance a traumatic and
tearjerking scene for devoted Duck
fans; a standing ovation even
brought tears to the Kids' eyes.
Sadness, in another way, marked
the football season as Autzen
Stadium had its lowest recorded
attendance level, 10,000, at the
San Jose battle. But fans showed
their undying spirit at the Civil
War battle and were rewarded with
a savory victory.
Big Sports gave way to a new
fan with the formation of the Minor
Sports Solidarity Committee. The
Flying Ducks-no. 1 in the nation-
were overwhelmed with crowd
support. Yet even though the
women's field hockey team
advanced to national competition,
fans still showed more visible
support to men's competition.
Athletic passes again 'failed" in
the eyes of students; issuance was
delayed until after the middle of
football season. But gains were
made. New Mac Court seating
helped to avert the perennial crush,
yet students were forced, by a fire
marshall ruling, to lose 300 of the
allotted 600 seats.
The ultimate conquest-
withstanding the Mac Court line
phenomenon-was accomplished
by a larger number of fans. Of
course, membership in the
Standing in Line at Mac Court
Club (SLMCC) was the Wimbledon
of the whole mess. After much talk
of students being squashed to
death in the lines and much
grumbling about crowding, the
Athletic Department (AD) and
Incidental Fee Committee members
initiated a crowd control plan. More
doors were opened, trucks along
sidewalks prevented the old "Hi
old pal, can I get in line here," and
liberal use of rope managed to
corral the problem.
140-fans
...--
On the inside, the never-ending
ban of student posters clashed with
the sentiments at the final Kamikaze
home game. Ingenious students
beat the snafu with Frisbees, pom
poms and helium balloons-often
landing on an unsuspecting head in
the crowd. The AD's packaged
spirit-streamers, balloons and
paper megaphones-didn't sell
Mac Court fans. Especially when
homemade signs were torn down by
officials.
The mystique of the Oregon fans
seems to garner a larger age span
and this season was no exception-
many a young girl will smile in
future days as she remembers
that crush on Ronnie Lee.

Marching, pep bands
[)illon resigns
(tirector post,
fewer march
Sure, marching band looks easy.
But director G. Burnette Dillon says
otherwise.
"Each halftime show you see on
the field involves about 1,200
charts," he says. "It's a complicated
pmcess but we have a great time."
Adding to the confusion of
playing an instrument and marching,
most halftime performances involve
about seven designs. Dillon must
also contend with exceeding the
band's allotted time limit. "If there's
another band, like Oregon State's,
we'll have seven-and-one-half
minutes to perform," he said. "If
we should run over that time they
can penalize the team."
This year, the Oregon marching
band involved 110 members, 96 of
whom marched at one time, a
slightly smaller band compared to
last year's.
"1 guess you could say I dream of
the day the University marching
band can grow in size as well as in
stature."
But for Dillon, it is a time to
move on, to let someone else direct
the band he revived five years ago.
He has seen it improve considerably
since then.
Another band which students
hear loud and clear is the basketball
pep band. They were present for
every Kamikaze Kids clash,
providing entertainment for
everyone.

Rally Squad

Ilanked 13th
Oregon rain can just about
dampen anyone's spirits, including
those of the high-spirited rally
squad.
Ranking 13th in the nation in the
NCAA's International Cheerleading
Foundation (ICF) Top 20
competition, the 10-member group
was plagued by drizzle during ICF
judging.
The judging-for poise, dance,
double stunts, costumes, crowd
control, timing and enthusiasm-
occurs during football season.
Although the squad kept soaking
Duck fans yelling, squad adviser
Julie Holt commented, "We think
we could have done much better
if we were judged during basketball
season. Being judged in the rain is
just not fair."
The group performed the
impossible when requested to travel
to New York with the Kamikaze
Kids who were competing in the
National Invitational Tournament.
No money was allocated for the
squad's excursion-the first time
they would travel with the Duck
team. Technically the squad is not
to do any fund-raising for
themselves, but with some "under
the table" efforts, the squad made
the flight in March.
In other capacities, the squad
assisted in various fundraisers
including a "Date-A-Cheerleader"
raffle for the junior class. They also
helped fund-raising efforts for
minor sports.
Under the auspices of the ICF,
the squad sponsored a statewide
cheerleading clinic in October for
high school and junior high boys
and girls. The clinic featured
emphasis on double stunts,
gymnastics and dance routines.

last Oregon victory, over Utah in
1974. As destiny would have it, Utah
was again to meet the Ducks.
Oregon, for the firs.t time in the
season, demonstrated an effective
offense, grinding out 331 yards total.
The Ducks' consistency paid off as
they handed the Utes a 18-7 loss.
In the heart of Cougar Country,

two in a row. Down 14-3 at the half,
Oregon rallied in the second half to
outscore Washington State 23-0.
In defeating WSU, Henderson

touchdown. Junior running back
George Bennett gained 111 yards
and a touchdown for the second

goals in a single game. Oregon
nailed down its first conference

Football '75
 
Oregon needed an emotional 
high point. It was OSU coach Dee 
Andros' last game. With Oregon 
State holding a 37-32 series 
advantage, the Ducks aimed to 
narrow the margin. 
It was not Dee's day. The Ducks 
gave the Beaver coach a sour send­
off and Autzen Stadium saw its first 
victory over OSU, 14-7. 
Far from being impressive, it was 
still a win, the second over the 
Beavers in 11 years. Team statistics 
included six fumbles, four 
interceptions, 22 punts and just 
one offensive touchdown. 
During the first period it appeared 
the Beaver hex might once agai n 
foil the Ducks. Oregon, at the 
Beaver eight yard line, passed for 
the first strike against OSU. To the 
utter astonishment of 35,000 fans, 
Beaver safety Jay Locey stepped in 
front of Duck Tommy Garrett and 
raced 94 yards for the first score of 
the game. 
Early in the second quarter 
Oregon got a gift of its own. Duck 
safety Wills picked an errantly­
thrown pigskin out of the air and 
rambled 15 yards to tie the score, 
7-7. 
"I would rather be 
whipped in a public 
square than watch a game 
like that," commented 
Oregon's new president, 
William Boyd. 
The game was decided early in the 
third quarter via Beaver Rich 
Dodge's fumble. From the 18 yard 
line Bennett, in three carries, made 
it to the two yard line. The next run 
gave Oregon the lead, one they 
never relinquished. 
Most assuredly, Ducks every­
where had a good time Saturday 
night after a badly needed win.

Cross country
 
A season of blues
 
At season's beginning, it appeared 
the Webfoots had an inside lane in 
successfully defending their NCAA 
cross country title. With four 
all-Americans and five of their top 
six runners returning, the Ducks 
were rated as the championship 
contender. The reality of a third 
straight NCAA title never 
materialized, as illness besieged the 
team for the entire season. 
The ill-fated harriers finished the 
season in 11th place at Penn State, 
the site of the 1975 NCAA 
championships. Uregon went into 
the NCAA meet with more depth 
than the team of a year ago, but 
illness, once again, took its toll on 
the Ducks. 
Early in the season Bill Dellinger's 
fleet-afoot corps exhibited the 
degree to which illness could affect 
the overall team strength. They 
failed to seriously contend for the 
Northern Division Cross Country 
title at Creswell. The Ducks finished 
a distant second with 53 points, 
while the Washington State Cougars 
dominated the meet with 26. 
"I think we would have won if 
Williams and Spir were here, 
because Williams would have been 
up there with them (WSU's 
Kenyans)," said fourth place finisher 
Paul Geis. "Our chances are still 
good for the NCAA. We have more 
depth than ever. It's good to get 
illness' over with early. NfHthern 
Division is just not that important." 
Ironically, Geis was not able to 
attend the NCAA championships 
because of illness. 
The win came easier than 
expected for the Cougars, especially

to surprised WSU coach John 
Chaplin. 
"We didn't run especially well, 
obviously. We won't be beating 
many people if we don't run any 
better than that," said Dellinger 
after the meet. The Ducks simply 
weren't running up front, and the 
results clearly proved the point. 
The Ducks, weakened by the loss 
of two top runners from the 
Intrasquad Meet, Terry Williams 
and Peter Spir, failed to contend 
for the title they won last year in 
Pullman. 
Even with the Northern Division 
loss, Oregon looked at the NCAA 
meet with a glimmer of confidence. 
Oregon finished national 
competition with 319 points, their 
lowest in the NCAA since Oregon 
began competing in 1963. 
Dellinger only took five runners 
to the nationals rather than the 
allotted seven. "We brought the 
guys who had shown themselves 
ready to compete at this level and 
I think it would have been wrong 
for us not to come since we were 
the defending champions." 
Peter Spir suffered a case of 
stomach cramps during the last mile, 
and dropped back more than 100 
places when he was forced to walk 
before he could resume running. 
Terry Williams was the first Duck to 
finish, running a respectable 28:57.9 
and securing fourth place. 
Even if Spir had run well, the 
Ducks couldn't have placed higher 
than third behind Texas-EI Paso and 
Washington State, the first and 
second place finishers with 88 and 92 
points, respectively. 
Dave Taylor, fifth in the 1974 
meet, took a meager 32nd. "I 
honestly feel Taylor would have 
been up there again," Dellinger 
said, "but he wasn't completely 
healthy and neither was Gary Barger 
(67th). 
"Things don't go your way every 
year and they certainly didn't go 
our way this year."

Title hopes go 'fowl' 
Ducks shoot for league crown, but aim 
Ronnie. The Pit. Kamikaze Kids. 
These familiar epithets could be 
heard virtually everywhere on 
campus during the most frenetic 
time of year-basketball season. It 
is a time when normal behavior 
gives way to rabid, frenzied 
fanaticism that sometimes borders 
on the psychotic. This particular 
season brought a certain expectant 
air, an ambiance of pure excitement 
to the University. For the first time in 
nearly a decade, the Pac-8 
conference had no dominant figure, 
not juggernaut of the old UCLA 
mold that made only the race for 
second place interesting. The title 
was truly up for grabs, and the 
Ducks threw no shadow of doubt on 
their intention for the 1975-76 
season-a league crown. 
Coach Dick Harter was entering 
his fifth campaign with the Ducks, 
and he led them through a season 
that not only tested the character 
and physical stamina of his players, 
but provided fans an opportunity to 
see whether neophytes to Harter's 
program would adapt to the 
rigorous, "kamikaze" style of play 
so familiar to denizens of the Pit. 
The Ducks nearly reached their 
goal. After a desultory start in the 
conference (1-3), they rebounded to 
finish 10-4, tied for second place 
with OSU. Their overall record was 
19-11, good enough to earn a 
second consecutive invitation to the 
prestigious NIT at Madison Square 
Garden in New York City. 
Honolulu, Hawaii-The Season 
began as the Ducks packed their 
traveling colors, bermuda shorts and 
print shirts for a two-game 
encounter with the Hawaii 
Rainbows. The Rainbows were 
expected to be tough, but the 
officials proved tougher. A glance 
at the scoring sheet revealed some 
telling statistics: Oregon was 
outrebounded 90-80, whistled for 65 
fouls opposed to 35 for Hawaii, and 
the Ducks went to the foul line only 
25 times compared to 78 for the 
Rainbows. It was a frustrating trip, 
and the Ducks possessed a rather 
unostentatious 0-2 record. 
The Ducks returned to the 
continent, and promptly turned to 
more winning ways. They 
methodically eliminated,Boise State, 
Montana State, Seattle Pacific and 
Cal State L.A. With a more 
respectable 4-2 record, and on the 
crest of a four-game winning 
streak, they prepared for the Indiana 
Classic and, hopefully, a 
confrontation with the top-ranked 
Hoosiers. That matchup was not to 
be, though, as Oregon lost in the 
first round to the Gobblers of 
Virginia Tech, an 87-60 defeat. 
Harter had little positive to say about 
the performance. 
"I'd hesitate to call it the worst 
game we've ever played," he said, 
"but I can't remembera game when 
we were outscored 51-18 in the 
second half." Forced into the 
consolation bracket, Oregon came 
back the next night to defeat a good 
Georgia team 87-74. Junior forward 
Greg Ballard paved the way with

----
falls short 
a 23-point, 11 rebound effort, and 
Harter called the win a "pretty good 
effort." 
The Providence Friars were the 
next obstacle forOregon in this 
last game prior to the annual 
pre-Christmas Far West Classic 
(FWC). The Ducks would like to 
have tuned-up with a win, but the 
Friars denied them that by a score of 
76-68. 
The Kamikaze Kids were not 
performing consistently yet, and 
they hoped the FWC in Portland, 
which they had won in 1974, would 
provide them an opportunity to 
display some strengths and 
introduce a measure of consistency 
to their game. The field of teams 
was relatively strong, and on the 
first night Duquesne shattered Duck 
hopes to repeat as tournament 
champions. They stunned a partisan 
Portland crowd, defeating Oregon 
78-74. In consolation play, Oregon 
bounced back with a 70-66 win over 
Colorado St. which set up a final

The Pac··8 season was not ready to 
get underway, and the Ducks knew 
the pre-season games were now 
history. 
Pandemonium prevailed at the Pit 
as the Ducks opened Pac-8 play 
against the national champion UCLA 
Bruins. It was a tense, exciting, 
fiercly fought contest; the outcome 
was in doubt until the final buzzer

termed "Iucky." Washington won the game 77-70. 
After that contest, Duck fans had 
every reason to be optimistic about 
the race for the league title. They 
had played well against the Bruins, 
showing definate signs of 
(continued on page 156)

(continued from page 155) 
improvement; it was obvious that 
UCLA could and would be beaten in 
other league contests and the Duck 
starters were completely healthy, 
which was crucial to their reckless 
style of play. 
The next three conference games, 
however, saw the Ducks lose twice. 
They suffered at the hands of 
Washington and Washington State 
respectively, and only narrowly beat 
a weak USC Trojan team. So, with a 
1-3 conference record, the realistic 
attitude was something less than 
sanguine about title hopes. Duck 
fortune had reached its nadir. 
But after the 78-69 loss to George 
Raveling's WSU Cougars, Harter 
announced some changes would be 
made. The starting line-up was 
modified, and after a regrouping of 
sorts the Ducks began an incredible 
nine-game winning streak. Six of the 
wins were conference games, and 
five consecutive wins came on the 
road. The trip culminated with an 
unprecedented sweep in Los 
Angeles. 
The Ducks first edged USC 70-67, 
and two nights later faced UCLA and 
a Bruin legacy of 98 straight wins at 
Pauley Pavilion. The Ducks were 
undaunted. A patient, 
well-executed offense, stingy 
defense, and frigid shooting by the 
Bruins combined to give Oregon a 
stunning 65-45 victory making 
Oregon the only team other than 
USC to ever beat the Bruins at 
Pauley; the 20 point margin made it 
the most decisive loss for UCLA ever 
at the Pavilion. 
A jubilant crowd, estimated at 
between 5,000 and 7,000 persons, 
was on hand at Mahlon Sweet 
Airport Sunday when the Ducks 
"They're with you win or 
lose/" coach Harter said. 
"Maybe //11 be here until Mac 
Court falls down." 
returned. But the celebration 
short-lived, and the Kamikaze Kids 
had to face reality in the form of the 
Washington Huskies and the WSU 
Cougars. 
Some Husky hijinx punctuated 
the first contest when Coach Marv 
Harshman and his players donned 
Groucho Marx masks in an attempt 
to intimidate fans at the Pit. Oregon 
played straight man to the joke, 
but the Huskies were still laughing 
as they won 67-62. The Ducks 
returned the next evening to beat 
the WSU Cougars 70-56 only the 
finale against OSU at Gill Coliseum 
remained. 
It was fitting that the estimable 
Ron Lee, No. 30, played the decisive 
role in the outcome. With 15 
seconds remaining he faked right, 
turned left, and banked in the 
clutch shot, something he has been 
noted for throughout his Oregon 
career. His 24 point effort gave him 
1,063 career Pac-8 points, breaking 
Lew Alcindor's (Kareem 
Abdul-Jabbar) mark of 1,050. His 
total of 2,068 in all games is second 
to Alcindor's 2,325. For his 
outstanding play, Lee was named by 
the UPI as West Coast Player of the 
Year. 
Oregon finished the season in a 
second-place tie with OSU, but 
were slighted when bids to the 
NCAA Tournament were being 
extended. Fourth place finisher 
University of Washington was 
chosen as the other Pac-8 
representative along with 
conference champs UCLA. The

Ducks were extended an NIT bid 
with hopes to better their third 
place finish in 1975. 
In post-season developments, 
many thought the Harter era would 
be ending. The five-year coach had 
been offered the head coaching job 
at the University of Colorado. But 
he ended speculation at a press 
conference saying he considers 
Oregon the "best job in the 
country," and attributed the fact to 
the players and the fans. 
"They're with you win or lose," 
he said. "Maybe I'll be here until 
Mac Court falls down." 
The season did mark the 
disbanding of a special group of 
players who leave behind them a 
brand of basketball that has made 
the Ducks so exciting. The original 
Kamikaze Kids-Mark Barwig, Geoff 
Nelson, Bruce Coldren and Ron 
Lee-played their last games for 
Oregon. Hopefully Oregon teams of 
the future will exhibit that same 
relentless, aggressive, hustling style 
that characterized their play and 
captured the hearts of Oregon 
basketball fans.

Ronnie Lee-an Oregon legend
 
Off the court, Ron Lee displayed 
an affable, confident manner, 
exuding a warmth and charm that 
made him immensely popular­
whether dining with First Lady Betty 
Ford, or working with kids in 
Eugene. 
On the court he was intensity 
personified. Aggressive, tenacious, 
sometimes reckless, Lee possessed 
a remarkable sang froid and was 
responsible for winning a number 
of games with last minute heroics. 
Lee's athletic achievements are 
numerous. He scored more points 
in Pac-8 competition than any other 
player, topping Lew Alcindor's 
(Kareem Abdul Jabbar) mark. Twice 
Lee was a concensus All-American 
and was the first player named All 
Pac-8 four ye,Hs in a row. He was 
most valuable player in the 1975 
NIT; and in 1976 was named West 
Coast Player ofthe Year by UPI. 
But Ron Lee was not a selfish 
player. His individual honors only 
serve to underscore his contribution 
to the team, the University, and the 
community. 
During his four years, Oregon was 
70-40, the be:;t four-year mark in the 
school's modern history. One would 
have to go ba ck to 1935-39 to find 
better. And, at Mac Court where he 
and the rest of the Kamikaze Kids 
were adored .. his record was a 
Sterling 40-9. Lee's style of play was 
selfless and team oriented. 
His work in the community with 
the YMCA W,3S notable. Lee loved 
working with children and could 
often be seen walking along 
followed by ([ string of idolizing 
little urchins in basketball uniforms. 
Hopefully they will emulate his play 
in years to come. 
Lee was drafted by the Phoenix 
Suns, but considers Eugene his 
home, and hopes to live here in 
the off-season. His fondness for the 
community i!; reciprocated. 
The thrills I_ee brought to 
basketball fans will not soon be 
forgotten and the personal charm 
he emanated to the community will 
always be appreciated.

Commerciali$m and
 
"I'll take two cheeseburgers, a 
side of fries and a coke in a Mark 
Ba rwig glass." 
Lunch at Bob's Hamburgers, some 
say, just isn't the same when you 
sip your drink from an oridinary 
paper cup instead of one of the 
half-dozen Kamikaze basketball 
glasses. 
Of course, if glasses aren't 
your bag and Oregon basketball is, 
other alternatives exist to satisfy 
your Kamikaze cravings. You can, 
for instance, opt for McDonald's 
and one of four Oregon basketball 
posters. 
Or plop down $3.95 and let the 
world know you're a Ronnie Lee fan 
by the shirt on your back. Better 
yet, you can shell out $10.95 at 
Luby's Sport Center, which gives 
you the pleasure of having a Lee, 
Mike Drummond, Stu Jackson or Greg 
Ballard doll smiling from atop your 
dresser. 
Those who thought commercialism 
in Eugene came only in red, white 
and blue are mistaken. It's also 
big in green and yellow, providing 
it has something to do with a 
strange phenomenon called Kamikaze 
Basketball. 
Indeed, whether it's posters or 
shirts, glasses or dolls, Eugene's 
merchants are selling Oregon basket­
ball more fervently than ever. 
And, the public is buying with the 
same intensity. Consider, for in­
stance, the following: 
Bob's Hamburgers has sold some 
15,000 Kamikaze glasses in the 
months November to February. 
Penny's has sold 288 Ronnie Lee 
shirts in only 15 days, an average 
of 19 per day. 
Luby's sells some 25 Oregon 
basketball items each day. 
The Villard St. McDonald's sold 
8,500 Kamikaze posters in one month 
last year and manager Steve Merrill 
says, "We'll easily outdo that this 
year." 
The University Bookstore has sold 
more than 2,000 Kamikaze T-Shirts in 
two years. 
How do you explain the pheno­
menon? "It's hardto explain," said 
Royd Faust, retail manager at 
Luby's. "There's just something­
call it the KamikazeCharisma if 
you want-that makes people crazy 
about Oregon basketball." 
Chuck Neimi, Oregon's sports in­
formation director, nails it down 
further. It's 50 per cent Ron 
Lee and 50 per cent the style of 
a basketball Oregon plays," he 
says. "Honestly, there are a lot 
of people around who aren't Oregon 
basketball fans but are Ron Lee 
fans." 
Such a phenomenon, Neimi says, 
could never happen in a large city. 
"Kareem Abdhul-Jabbar walks down 
the streets of Los Angeles and very 
few notice him. Lee walks through 
the mall in Eugene and every head 
turns." 
Whether its a fanaticism for Lee 
or Kamikaze basketball, people are 
buying. And the merchants, though 
reluctant to divulge profit figures, 
are smiling. In the last two years, 
a ball park estimate would set the 
total amount grossed in Eugene on 
Kamikaze basketball products at 
something around $70,000. 
Some businesses which carry 
Kamikaze items, of course, reap 
their benefits in areas besides 
actual Kamikaze sales. Bob's and 
McDonald's, for example, rely on 
the well-as-Iong-as-I'm-here-I­
may-as-well-buy-this-too theory, 
made famous by stores like Payless, 
Fred Meyer's, etc. 
McDonald's, obviously, isn't get­
ting rich selling 17"x28" posters for 
25 cents each. But the posters lure 
plenty of customers, many of whom 
decide to buy a burger once they're 
inside. 
McDonald's manager Steve Merrill, 
however, downplays McDonald's profit 
motive. "We're not in the promotion 
business," he says, "but you've 
got to stay up with the trends on 
campus. And, let's face it, that 
means Kamikaze basketball." 
jim Williams, assistant manager 
of the University Bookstore, echoes 
similar sentiments. "People say 
we're just in it for the dollar 
but that's not true. We're not 
trying to make it a big commerical­
ism deal like the Bicentennial. 
We feel a committment to the team 
and to the University to sell such 
items." 
Said Faust, the retail manager 
at Luby's: "We like to think 
that a kid get $10 of happiness out 
of a $3.95 Kamikaze shirt. Of 
course, we get happiness out of it 
too. It does help to pay the 
rent." 
Whatever the motive, whatever the 
profit, here's a breakdown of 
Eugene's major Kamikaze dealers: 
Luby's Sport Center (Kamikaze 
dolls and some 24 originally­
designed styles of Kamikaze shirts). 
Most people, says Faust, already 
know what Kamikaze item they want 
before they enter the store. Not 
all do, however."A lot of times 
some lady will see the Kamikaze 
dolls and say something like, 
'Oh, George, aren't those cute? 
Let's buy one.' and they do." 
Whether Oregon is winning or 
losing, the demand is consistent. 
"Heck," said Faust, "you can sell 
Ron Lee in July."

Gymnastics 
Flying Ducks vault to No. 1 national rating 
Before Bill Ballester became head 
coach at the University five years 
ago, Oregon gymnastics languished 
in the deep recesses of Esslinger 
Hall. Between 1964 and 1971 the 
barely-Flying Ducks, competing 
against small colleges and high 
schools, only managed a modest 
30-31 win-loss record. 
But since 1972, progress has been 
amazing. During Ballester's tenure, 
and under his careful tutelage, the 
Flying Ducks have compiled a 48-15 
record, finished second in the Pac-8 
twice, and maturedinto anational 
contender. 
With 14 returning lettermen from 
a squad that finished fifth nationally 
in 1975, Oregon again performed 
excellently. They faced an extremely 
demanding schedule which 
included such powerhouses as the 
University of California, Northern 
Illinois, Louisiana State, Indiana 
State, and Arizona State. Despite the 
fact that the latter three teams were 
rated no. 1 in the nation when 
Oregon met them, the Ducks still 
managed to compile a best ever 
15-1 dual meet record and were 
ranked no. 1 for a time. 
The Flying Ducks fared quite well 
in tournament competition. They 
not only captured their own Oregon 
Invitational, but also won the UCLA 
Invitational for the second straight 
year, and the Pacific Northwest 
Championship for the third straight 
year. 
Oregon entered the Pac-8 meet 
with optimism after the Pacific 
Northwest Championships and a 
final dual meet against Arizona 
State, a meet considered by some 
the finest ever at Mac Court. Two 
thousand five hundred persons 
were on hand to witness what 
Ballester called a perfect meet, and a 
perfect tune-up for the league meet. 
In competition, 26 routines were 
awarded 9.00 (out of a possible 
10.00) or better, every event was 
won with a 9.5 or better, and three 
Oregon school records were set. 
With this momentum, Ballester 
was confident about his team's 
chances in the Pac-8. He predicted 
Oregon would win, with perennial 
champ Berkeley coming in second. 
Oregon had the best optional 
score in the country, and Ballester 
felt if the Ducks could stay close 
to the Bears through the first day 
of compulsories, they would be in 
excellent position. Unfortunately for 
the Ducks, California scored very 
well, nine points more than Oregon, 
who could not make up the 
difference. The Ducks did show 
exceptionally well in the optionals, 
finished second, and sent a record

In the NCAA's, three Ducks won

second in floor exercises, and 
Rodgers and Stoneplaced fifth in 
the pommel horse and high bar

Wrestling 
Injuries cripple repeat of championship 
For many, the 1976 wrestling 
season will be remembered as a year 
of frustration and injuries. During 
the season, the Ducks were 
debilitated by the temporary loss of 
several key people, and at times up 
to half of the starting line-up was 
hurt. This crippled not only Oregon 
chances to repeat as Pac-8 champs, 
but was to be a factor in preventing 
a top-ten finish in the NCAA's, a 
goal still to be accomplished by Ron 
Finley's burgeoning wrestling 
program. 
But in a more optimistic light, 
the 1976 campaign can be seen as a 
struggle against adversity, a tale of 
determination in which the team 
reshuffled personnel and still 
managed a 14-5 dual meet record, 
second place to Oregon State by 
only one-quarter of a point in the 
Pac-8 championship, and a 
creditable 15th place finish in the 
NCAA tournament. 
After an initially rocky start that 
saw the Ducks limp to a 2-3 record, 
an abrupt about face took place, 
and Oregon won 12 of 14 dual 
meets before the Pac-8 meet. The 
win skein began after Christmas 
break, and the new year brought 
good tidings to Duck fans. 
In the first ten days of January, 
Oregon beat WSU, Wyoming, 
Northern Colorado, Central 
Oklahoma State and won the 
Colorado Invitational tournament. 
They won another four meets 
before challenging Portland State, 
ranked 13th in the nation, one 
notch above the Ducks. Oregon 
won in an upset, and the next night 
faced ninth-ranked Minnesota. 
Again it was a surprising victory 
for the Ducks, and they took the 
ten-match winning streak against 
166 - wrestling 
conference favorite and traditional 
nemesis, Oregon State. They were 
set back in a tough match, but 
rebounded to win the Portland 
State Invitational four days later. The 
Ducks lost only once more before 
the conference meet, to a very 
strong team from Cal Poly-SLO. 
It was at the Pac-8 meet that the 
defending champion Ducks, for the 
first time, nearly fielded a regular 
team. Joe Sade and Buck Davis came 
off the injured list to capture 
individual titles. Sade was the 
defending 126-pound champion 
and had only wrestled in one match 
since his injury. He avenged two 
previous losses by annihilating Dave 
Mitchell of Washington. Davis was 
wrestling in his first match since 
breaking his arm six weeks earlier, 
and he upset rival Mike Dillenburg 
of Oregon State in the 177-pound 
bracket. 
Bob Bragg competed at 190 
pounds and was the third Oregon 
winner. Kevin Kramer and Greg 
Gibson both took second place, 
losing in the finals in attempts to 
retain crowns they had won the 
previous year. Randy Besaw, who 
lost only two of his last twelve 
matches, took third place in the 
167-pound division. Other third­
place finishers were Norm Knight, 
who had wrestled in just one 
varsity match during the season, 
and Danny Hollembaek, who had 
but one varsity win. 
Despite these personal 
comebacks and heroics, however, 
the Ducks were just nudged out of 
first place by a quarter of a point, 
as Oregon State had 79.0 points to 
78.75 for Oregon. This was a 
disappointing loss, but with the top 
two finishers in each weight division 
going to the NCAA meet, five Ducks 
were on hand at Tucson, Ariz., and 
team looked for its first top-ten 
finish after last year's best-ever 12th 
place in tournament competition. 
"We haven't cracked the magic 
top 10," said Finley, "so we sure 
want to do that." He felt all of the 
men were capable of scoring some 
points, especially Gibson and Bragg. 
Sade, Kramer, and Gibson were all 
making third appearances in the 
championships, Davis made his 
second, and Bragg was to make his 
first. ' 
As it turned out, Gibson, the 
cornerstone of the team, accou nted 
for nearly all of Oregon's points. 
The muscular heavyweight reached 
the finals for the second straight \ 
year, but lost to a 6-7, 310-pound 
behemoth from Oklahoma State 
named Jimmy Jackson. Other 
Oregon performers scored points, 
but an infection caused Bragg to

withdraw, and negated a possible 
higher team finish. He was unable 
to compete because of an elbow 
injury he sustained during practice. 
Another health problem, another 
disappointment. But again, the real 
story of the 1976 wrestling season 
was the team effort that enabled the 
Ducks to carryon and perform 
admirably throughout and despite 
the injury-plagued year. There were 
many consistent individuals that 
helped carry the team: Suichi Shoji 
won 26 matches, placing him fourth 
on the Oregon list for most wins 
in a season; Kramer won 26 
matches; Steve Hart won 24 times; 
Bragg won 23, and heavyweight 
Gibson finished second in both 
Pac-8 and NCAA championships and 
tied the career and broke the 
seasonal Oregon record for pins. 
The University can be proud of 
the matmen's accomplishments. 
They were stoic in the face of 
injuries, showed scrappy courage, 
and performed in a manner that 
reflected pride to the school and 
the program.

Aqua Ducks 
Team left high and dry by dollar drought 
In the spring of 1975, swim coach 
Don Van Rossen's $42,000 budget 
was completely cut. His program 
faced with insolvency, Van Rossen 
considered resigning, even though 
the administration wanted to retain 
swimming on a "self-perpetuating 
basis." Luckily for Oregon, and the 
Aqua Duck swim team, he did not 
quit, nor did his team give up, 
even though their collective 
financial plight was discouraging. 
Instead, the team cut spending in 
a variety of ways, engaged in a 
number of fund -raising activities, and 
had a quite remarkable season. 
Yes, they did compete against 
more than their own 
impecuniousness, and did quite well 
indeed. But the success of the 
season cannot be measured strictly 
on the basis of individual or team 
accomplishments. It must be seen 
against a background of 
monetary problems, and the efforts 
of the team to support itself. 
Team members traveled by car to 
away meets, and saved money on 
motels and restaurants by staying 
with Oregon alumni and having the 
Daisy Ducks pack lunches. Van 
Rossen said, "Traveling by car 
takes its toll from athletes, a toll in 
human energy." But the seemingly 
indefatigable Aqua Ducks team 
members took part in a variety of 
tiring activities designed to raise 
money. 
Among other things, they sold 
Frisbees, cleaned Autzen Stadium 
after football games, sold programs 
at games, and initiated a Duck Buck 
plan with McDonald's. 
They received outside help. Capt. 
AI Jones tried for the world's 
170 - swimming 
time-in-the-water record at 
Leighton Pool, and staff members 
of AM radio station KBDF played a 
water-volleyball game to help the 
Aqua Ducks. 
Van Rossen attributes part of the 
team's success to the unity 
developed through these efforts. 
"The projects cemented them as a 
work and task force," he said. 
Exactly how successful were they? 
Oregon swimmers compiled an 
over-all 6-3 record, 5-1 in dual 
meets, and finished second by five 
points in the North Pacific 
Swimming and Diving 
Championships against nine other 
schools, setting or tying twelve meet 
records in the process. In addition, 
they won their own Oregon 
invitational, and sent seven men to 
the NCAA meet in Providence, R.1. 
A number of school and career 
bests were recorded during the 
season as well. Varsity individual 
records were established by Steve 
Hamilton, John Lloyd, and Richard 
Kent. Hamilton set marks in the 100 
and 200-yard backstroke; Lloyd 
set records in diving, and Kent set 
a standard in the 100-yard freestyle. 
Relay marks were also set. Hamilton, 
Mat McCudden, Dan Zeiss, and 
Kent set the 400-yard freestyle 
record, and Hamilton, Kent, John 
McConnochie (who already held 
four Oregon marks), and 
McCudden set the record for the 
BOO-yard freestyle relay. 
But the real highlight of the 
season was for the 13th time in his 
17 years, Van Rossen's team was 
eligible for the nationals. Lloyd, 
Hamilton, McCudden, Lorne 
Kemmett, Kent, Roy Clark, and 
McConnochie all qualified, and 
compromised the only non-funded 
team in the meet. 
McConnochie came back from 
New Zealand where he competed in 
his country's Olympic Trials, and 
met the team in Providence. 
Unfortunately, no cliche, storybook 
ending closed the season. The Aqua 
Ducks scored no points, set no 
records. 
However, in light of the financial 
problems, they had an eminantly 
successful season, even raising the 
money to send the seven members 
to Rhode Island. And, according to 
Van Rossen, they learned a great 
deal about team unity, and an 
appreciation for work. 
About the future of swimming at 
the University? "I'm a crusty old 
fighter when it comes to swimming 
at Oregon," Van Rossen said. 
"There will be a program as long 
as I'm here at the reins." 

Baseball 
Rain, no bucks hurt Ducks 
Baseball season began with its 
budget cut to peanuts and the 
schedule cut even more. Amidst a 
meager recruiting budget and a loss 
of 14 seniors from his program last 
year, Coach Mel Krause persevered 
although the season looked grim for 
the Ducks. Despite some triumphs, 
it was a lackluster season ending 
with a 20-18 record for Oregon. 
As the sun set on Krause's sixth 
season as baseball coach at Oregon, 
he said he had no beefs with his 
players, only with their results. "The 
big problem/' Krause said, "was the 
lack of ability of our pitching staff to 
consistently keep the ball down." 
Last year, Krause had $4,700 to 
recruit with after losi ng 14 seniors, 
including some first stringers, but he 
has over $11,000 to use for 1977 
recruiting. "I'd like to have more/' 
he said, "But with the financial 
situation, I appreciate John Caine 
(Athletic Department Director) 
allocating that amount. I don't see 
how he can do more." 
Where he will find the needed 
recruits is another problem. "Six or 
seven kids I've signed to come here 
have turned pro/' Krause 
commented. "Then who do I get to 
replace them?" The answer? Look 
at recruits for their potential rather 
than obvious baseball ability. And 
that's exactly what Krause was 
beating the bushes for after season's 
end. He was looking for potential 
talent from Oregon-forget 
about wooing out-of-state 
candidates. 
Oregon lost seven players to 
graduation: Brian Peterson, Eric 
Gilmore and Brian Shandera, all 
pitchers; catcher Ron Hollins, 
shortstop Ray Smith, infielder Hank 
Love and outfielder Dave Ulrich. 
172 - baseball 
When the Ducks' Northern 
Division record was 0-3, Krause 
refused to panic. Oregon rain fell 
soon after that, allowing Krause's 
team to practice only one day 
before they faced Washington. 
"You're not eliminated until you are 
mathematically/' Krause said about 
league play. The chances of that 
possibility increased after the 
Huskies handed the Ducks a three­
game loss to add to an already 
dubious record. 
After two weeks of watching rain, 
the Ducks returned to action against 
Portland State University (PSU) in a 
non-league game. Four straight 
rainouts before the PSU contest left 
Oregon winless and in the cellar of 
the Northern Division race, but the 
10-day layoff, usually disastrous at 
the beginning of conference play, 
may have proved beneficial in 
Oregon's case. 
"The rest gave us strength and a 
lot of power/' said Krause after his 
Ducks powered three home runs in 
an 8-1 thrashing of visiting PSU. 
It appeared the Ducks had 
loosened up and were prepared 
for a three-game series against 
Oregon State (OSU), but OSU 
handed them three more losses 
and left them 0-6 in Northern 
Division play and 12-11 overall. 
In an incredible comeback, 
Oregon traveled to Seattle to make 
up a rained-out double-header and 
came away with five wins and one 
loss over Washington, upping their 
Northern Division standing to 5-7, 
only one-and-a-half games behind 
Oregon State. Tough pitching and 
good weather were the ingredients 
to success in the first four games. 
After losi ng the fifth game, the 
Ducks came back to win in the sixth 
game. 
Even though the Ducks took five 
of six conference games from 
Washington only the weekend 
before, they didn't exactly blow 
PSU off the field as they were 
thrashed 13-5 in another 
non-league game. 
Krause could have pinpointed the 
problem as the Vikings' 21 hits off of 
five Oregon pitchers, or Oregon's 
three errors or the nine men left on 
base. But Krause saw another 
problem he thought more 
important. 
/lThe thing I'm most concerned 
about was that we had no life, no 
enthusiasm/' Krause said. /lIt was a 
dead atmosphere, even though 
you're six runs down, you can still 
give 100 per cent." 
Facing Portland the next day, 
Duck substitutions provided the 
heroics in a 3-2 win that pushed the

Track & field 
Ducks place fifth, lowest ever for Oregon 
At this University, track is 
accorded status usually reserved at 
other schools for the Big Two, and 
the sport is a cynosure. 
Oregon has set a precedent of 
excellence, and Hayward Field is 
rich with history of notable 
competition, including the 1976 
Olympic Trials. 
Bill Dellinger's team perhaps fell 
short of overall expectations, but 
untimely injuries and health 
problems contributed to that more 
than any lack of talent. 
But even with the injuries and 
illnesses, Oregon had enough 
consistency to accumulate a 3-1 dual 
meet record. And the season saw 
some surprise performances. 
Counted among the pleasant 
surprises were runners such as 
Dacre Bowen (400 meters, mile 
relay), Don Clary (1,500 meters, 
5,000 meters), and Matt Centrowitz 
(800,1,500,5,000 meters) who 
blossomed from relative obscurity. 
Field men such as Dave Voorhees 
(shot put, discus), Rich Perkins 
(hammer throw), and Jeff Carter 
(javelin) also performed 
marvelously. 
But the problems came after the 
dual meet season, and Oregon 
finished a lowest-ever fifth in the 
Pac-8 meet, and 12th in the NCAA's. 
They lost certain points in both 
meets because of injuries. 
The Ducks opened the Pac-8 
season against a Washington Husky 
team that was slightly favored to 
win. On the form sheet, the Huskies 
had 13 better times or marks than 
the Ducks out of a possible 19 
scheduled events. In addition, Duck 
middle distance star, Gary Barger 
was home with a viral infection. 
But with some outstanding 
performances, the Ducks won in an 
upset 84-79. According to Dellinger, 
a 1-2 finish in the 400 meters was 
very crucial to the victory. Bowen 
and Denzil Davis charged from 
behind to win, Bowen at 47.4 and 
Davis at 47.8. 
Other excellent marks were 
Voorhees' winning 199-9 discus 
throw, eight feet over his 1975 best, 
and Perkins' school-record in the 
hammer throw at 202-11. Chris 
Braithwaite won the 200 meters in an 
upset, placed second in the 100 
meters, and the Ducks finished the 
meet with a sweep in the 5,000 
meters. 
Unfortunately, Oregon had little 
time to savor the victory. UCLA was 
next, a team with 40 straight home 
dual meet victories, a 5-0 record, 
and a ranking as the no. 1 dual meet 
team in the nation. 
The Ducks hoped to take a cue 
176 - track and field 
Pac-8 
from the basketball squad, but 
injuries didn't make the challenge 
any easier. Ray Burton, a weight 
man, and Stan Whigman, a hurdler, 
were out, and other, including 
Tinker Hatfield, Craig Brigham and 
Dave Hagmeier were not a full

(continued from page 177) 
strength. 
But not to be deterred, the Ducks 
very nearly upset the Bruins, losing 
only 82-72, and the loss was not 
altogether discouraging. 
The Ducks had given UCLA a 
scare, despite the form chart, which 
had predicted a 35 point Bruin 
victory. The Ducks had 
proven they were a tough capable 
team; and they saw some superior 
individual efforts. 
Again, Bowen, who had 
"The Ducks hoped to 
take a cue from the 
basketball squad, but 
injuries didn't make the 
challenge any easier . .. " 
established himself previously with 
a 47.4 in Washington, proved he was 
for real as he upset UCLA's Benny 
Myles in a swift 46.7. For an encore, 
he anchored Oregon's mile relay 
team to a dead heat win, making up 
yards on Myles and running a 47.7 
leg. 
Junior Voorhees, in the midst of 
a great yea r, set Iifetime bests in 
winning the discus at 201-8, and 
scoring second in the shot put at 
61-3.5. The Ducks also swept the 
1,500 meters and the javelin. UCLA 
had enough depth to win the 
meet, but for his efforts, Voorhees 
was named co-Pac-8 track athlete 
of the week. 
With a 1-1 dual record, the Ducks 
faced the WSU Cougars at Hayward 
Field. Washington State was 5-0 and 
were looking to continue their win 
skein. What happened was 
encouraging for Oregon fans. 
Not only did Voorhees again 
unload a lifetime best in the shot at 
62-2.25, but three Ducks covered 
the 1,500 meters in the metric 
equivalent of a sub-four-minute 
mile, as the Ducks won 95-68. 
Centrowitz came from behind to 
win the event on a rain-soaked track 
at 3:39.8. Following him were 
teammates Peter Spir and Randall 
Markey with times of 3:41.4 and 
3:41.7 respectively. 
A host of other Ducks exceled in 
178 - track and field 
the win. Most impressive was Clary, 
a freshman from Alaska. The fans 
were aroused as he charged from 
dead last in the 5,000 meters to pass 
John Ngeno of WSU, defending 
NCAA three and six-mile champ, to 
win in 13:45.2. 
The last Pac-8 dual meet was 
against Oregon State. Oregon 
si mply overwhelmed the Beavers 
106-57. Perkins broke his own 
hammer throw record with a fling 
of 206-3, Carter hurled his lifetime 
best in the javelin with a 254-8 
heave, one of the top three 
collegiate throws of 1976, and 
Braithwaite scored a double in the 
100 and 200 meters with times of 10.3 
and 20.8. 
In the Pac-8 meet, the Ducks had 
a legitimate chance for a second 
place showing, and possibly a 
top-five finish in the NCAA's. But 
injuries hurt team chances. 
Decathlete Brigham, projected 
top man in the Pac-8 as well as the 
nation, contracted mononucleosis;

Barger, best Pac-8 steeplechaser and 
third ranked in the nation, was lost 
to a stress fracture; and Voorhees, 
projected second place in Pac-8 and ~ 
NCAA sustained a knee injury. Still, 
at the NCAA meet in Philadelphia, 
Oregon was represented by 12 
performers. 
There, Centrowitz finished third 
in the 1,500 meters at 3:37.29, a 
personal record and the fastest 
American time of the year. It also 
broke a school record held by the 
late Steve Prefontaine. Markey was 
fifth in the same race at 3:39.98. 
Perkins finished third in the 
hammer, but the 205-5 throw was 
eight feet below his best. Carter 
scored a fifth place in the javelin. 
Dave Taylor (5,000 meters), Burton 
(discus), Hatfield (pole vault), 
Howard Banich (discus), Braithwaite 
(100,200 meters), Terry Williams 
(10,000 meters), Clary (5,000 meters), 
and Spir (1,500 meters) rounded out 
the contingent, though they did 
not score. 
So, though they did not score as 
they would have liked, the 12th 
place finish was very good for a 
tpam beset by injuries.

Golf 
Team captures crown 
For the sixth time in nine years, 
the Oregon golf team proved 
itself the class of the Northwest. 
Jim Ferguson's team captured the 
Northern Division crown, which, 
because of financial problems, was 
held in leiu of a Pac-8 championship. 
The Ducks walked away with the 
team title as well as an individual 
title, and set a record for the widest 
winning margin in the 11-year 
history of the tournament. 
Oregon two-time All-American, 
senior Peter Jacobsen, was the 
tournament medalist, carding a 
score of 209, and Ducks occupied 
four of the top five positions. 
In addition to the Northern 
=­
Division title, the Ducks won the 
Oregon State Invitational, the 
Oregon Invitational, and had 
excellent showings of second in the 
BYU Cougar Classic, and fifth in the 
Houston All-America against 
top-ranked competition. 
In the 1975 NCAA tournament, 
the Oregon team placed 16th. 
Ferguson had hoped to break the 
top-ten. He got his wish. The team 
placed 10th at the tournament held 
in Albuquerque, N.M. 
Jacobsen and sophomore Jeff 
Sanders were selected to the All 
Pac-8 team, and later Ferguson was 
selected coach of the year.

Tennis 
A 'year of records' 
Characterizing the Oregon 
tennis season, Coach Buzz Summers 
called it "a year of records." 
The team set records for most 
consecutive wins-14-and highest 
single-season winning percentage­
.750. Summers himself passed the 
century mark of career wins. 
Unfortunately, they could not win 
their most important match in the 
Northwest Intercollegiate Tennis 
Championships against Washington. 
That win would have given them at 
least a tie for the championship, 
something the Ducks have never 
accomplished. 
Oregon was in first place going 
into the final day of play, but could 
not beat the Huskies, a team they 
had beaten twice earlier. 
A number of individual records 
were set, as well. Most notable was 
Mike Jeung's total of 48 career wins, 
breaking the old record by five. He 
has another year of eligibility left to 
add to that mark. 
Jim Wilson, a sophomore from 
Roseburg, set marks for most 
singles matches won in a season with 
18, and most consecutive matches 
won with 14. 
I n addition, the tennis budget was 
severely cut, and the team coped 
well with the hardships they 
endured because of it. A benefit 
match brought professional tennis 
stars Dennis Ralston and Marty 
Reissen to Mac Court for a singles 
match. The two pros gave a clinic for 
fans before the match.

Field hockey team earns spot
 
in first national championships
 
Oregon's varsity field hockey 
team completed an outstanding 
season with a 12-4-1 record and 
earned a spot in the first national 
field hockey championship in 
Harrisonburg, Va. Oregon's 
opposition scored only three goals 
in national competition, two by 
Ursinis College (Pa.), ranked 
second in the nation. 
During the season Oregon 
opponents scored 13 goals while 
the Ducks drove in 46 of their own. 
Anne Hassert lead the offensive line 
with 16 goals. 
Hassert, Becky Love, Katie Frevert, 
Stacy Mellem and Melanie Schaefer 
were named to the all-association 
team at the Willamette Valley 
Selection Tournament in Corvallis. 
Diane Smith merited honorable 
mention. 
Smith, Schaefer and Mellem put 
Oregon first in a national dribble, 
drive and flick contest, winning 
the Ducks a new set of kilts. 
Oregon's strong junior varsity 
team ended its season with a 12-1-1 
record. The team scored 48 goals, 
with only nine goals made by its 
foes. 
For the first time the field hockey 
team played a pre-football 
exhibition game against Oregon 
State University, beating the 
Beavers 2-0. The 1-0 victory over 
Simon Fraser University, British 
Columbia, was another high point 
for the Ducks.

Oregon basketball was beset with 
problems as injuries and other 
problems took their toll on the 
women's basketball team. There 
were good moments, but overall, 
the Webfoot women turned over a 
disappointing 5-15 record. 
Athletic Director Becky Sisley 
admitted basketball has been 
Oregon's weakest women's 
program, but says she will not ask 
her coaches to go out and recruit. 
"We're not at the point of a job 
depending on a won-loss record," 
she said. "The priority is for the 
girls in this schoo!." 
The injuries were numerous, 
causing coach Nancy Mikleton to 
rely heavily on substitutes and JV 
squad players for much of the 
season. In the Northern-Southern 
Area Qualifying Tournament in 
Ashland, the Ducks lost their final 
game in the consolation bracket to 
Washington-an unfortunate, but 
perhaps predictable, finish.

Oregon's women's volleyball 
team qualified for national 
tournament play in Princeton, N.J. 
by finishing second in the NCWSA­
AIAW Region IX tournament. After 
an impressive 20-5 season, Oregon 
finished 2-3 in national competition 
losingto fourth-seeded Houston, 
fifth-seeded Brigham Young 
University and Southwest Missouri 
Stat'e. The Ducks successfully spiked 
their way past North Carolina and 
Princeton. 
Oregon has qualified for nationals 
yearly since 1971 and entered 1975 
competition with an experienced 
group of women. Six of the Ducks 
had at least one year of national 
play. 
The Duck's junior varsity squad 
ended the season 19-4.

Cross country
 
Hard work spells success
 
An aggressive women's cross 
country program, only two years 
ago nonexistent, was ready to meet 
the challenge of the first national 
AIAW cross country championship 
meet. Strenuous workouts and 
experienced distance runners 
spelled success for Oregon. 
At season's opening, the Ducks 
took first place in the Fort Casey 
Open and followed that win closely 
with another first in the Oregon 
Invitational. But for the team and 
for coach Tom Heinonen, the big 
meets were still ahead, and the 
goals were simple: to capture the 
regional championship and to 
finish in the top five at the AIAW 
National Collegiate Championships 
held in Ames, Iowa. What had 
seemed an overly ambitious

After the su rprise in Seattle, the 
Ducks' determination led them to 
the AIAW national championships 
and a fourth place finish, assisted 
greatly by Kim Conner who placed 
20th in the meet. 
Members of the women's team

Swimming 
Records set
 
by Menkens
 
Michelle Menkens, Oregon's 
AIAW 50-yard freestyle champion, 
won five events as the Oregon 
women's swim team placed third in 
the Northwest Collegiate Women's 
Sports Association Swimming and 
Diving Championships. Menkens is 
a sophomore from Coos Bay. 
Menkens won the 50-yard 
freestyle, lOa-yard individual 
medley, 200-yard freestyle and the 
lOa-yard freestyle, besides 
anchoring the winning 200-yard 
freestyle relay team. All of Menkens' 
wins were set in meet record times 
and met national qualifying 
standards. The relay team, consisting 
of Tammy Lloyd, Robin Wheeler, 
Christy Bode and Menkens, also set 
a meet record and met qualifying 
standards. Oregon's other individual 
winner was Wheeler, who raced to a 
win in the 50-yard butterfly by .01 
of a second. 
The Ducks received help from 
returning swimmers Heidi Goranson 
and Kathy Fandel. This year, 
Menkens shattered the existing 
national record time for the 50-yard 
freestyle of 24.39 with a 24.26 
performance. The team is coached 
by Virginia Van Rossen.

Women's Gym 
Gymnasts 
ranked 12th 
nationally 
As if qualifying for national 
competition wasn't enough, the 
women's gymnastics team scored an 
impressive 98.95 securing 12th place 
nationally-icing on a winning 
season. 
At the nationals in Boone, N.C. (a 
first for any women's gymnastic 
team in Oregon's history), the 
Ducks started out in 25th place­
dead last. But outstanding 
performances resulted in the 
surprise finish. 
Women's gymnastics scoring is 
done by taking the best three 
all-around scores and adding these 
together for the total number of 
points. There are four events, with 
10 points a perfect score in each. 
The four all-around gymnastics 
were senior Ann Olson, juniors Jan 
Model and Elaine Fisher, and 
freshman Wendy Halberg. Halberg 
led the team with a 33.80 at the 
nationals; Olson scored 33.75 and 
Model scored 31.95. Fisher earned 
30.85 points. 
The team soared through its 
season, losing only one of seven 
meets. The women qualified for 
regional competition Feb. 17 scoring 
98.20 in competition against Oregon 
College of Education. To qualify for 
the meet in North Carolina, the 
team had to earn 98 points again at 
the regionals at Forest Grove in 
March. The women squeaked by 
with a 98.03, led by Model who 
scored 33.12. 
Coach Henrietta Heiny attributed 
the team's success to two things: 
"good gymnasts and a strong team 
effort. They were going out and 
trying to make it as a team." 
Women Golf 
Young leads 
Oregon women 
Kathy Young led the Oregon 
Women's Golf Team during the 
season, followed by Mary Wilson, 
Marilyn O'Brien and Mary Kleep. 
Young scored consistently in the low 
80's, winning the Gearhart Invita­
tional and placing third in the Daisy 
Duck Invitational held May 17-18 at 
Emerald Valley Golf Course. 
With Young's strong finish at the 
Daisy Duck Invitational, she hel ped 
her team place third in overall 
competition. Mary Wilson shot an 
88, Mary Kleeb a 91, and Marilyn 
O'Brien an 89. 
Oregon State's Rise Alexander 
took the Daisy Duck tournament 
with a two day total of 155, seven 
strokes ahead of Young. In team 
competition, Oregon finished ahead 
of OSU, giving the Ducks three wins 
in as many meetings with the 
Beavers this season. Alexander holds 
a 2-1 edge over Young. Mary Wilson 
came in second for the Oregon 
team in Daisy Duck competition 
with 182. 
Team coach was Diane Baxter.

Ducks in 'World Series' 
Softball Coach Becky Sisley 
predicted a .700 winning season and 
a trip to the nationals for her team. 
And not surprisingly, the Ducks 
ended their season with a 16-6 
record and a berth in the National 
Women's College World Series held 
in Omaha, Neb. 
..oregon finished 1-2 in the Series. 
High hopes were held for the team 
until regular pitcher Shawna Baxter 
was sidelined with strained 
ligaments in her arm just before the 
Series began. Connie Anderson 
took to the mound and performed 
well during the games. 
When it became known all of the 
other college teams in the 
Northwest region would not be able 
to afford to send a team to the 
national tournament, a 
best-of-three series was set up 
between Oregon State (OSU) and 
Oregon. The series determined 
which school was to represent the 
Northwest region. 
Oregon beat OSU in a close 
contest. After giving the first game 
to OSU 5-1, the Ducks won the 
doubleheader at OSU 7-3 and 3-2. 
Sisley said the first game was "just 
played sloppily," referring to six 
errors that made things easy for the 
Beavers. The Ducks might have 
guessed what sort of day it would be 
when thei r starti ng left-fielder 
bruised her finger in warmups, and 
Sisley had to go with pitcher Connie 
Anderson in left. With Baxter's 
pitching and Anderson's hitting, 
though, the Ducks were able to win. 
The Ducks ended the season by 
winning the NCWSA Invitational 
Softball Tournament. With four 
straight wins, the women took the 
Northwest crown in Portland. 
Tennis 
Borchers-Layton beat top-seeded Huskies 
Illness plagued Oregon's number 
one women's tennis player Debbie 
Borchers most of the season, but by 
the time NCWSA Championships 
came around, she was healthy 
enough to beat top-seeded 
University of Washington doubles 
players Sue Goesling and Mary 
Schutten with partner Patti Layton. 
Oregon placed fourth of 17 teams in 
the Championship tournament. 
Oregon had five players in the 
Regional Tournament at 
Washington State May 13-15. Last 
year Oregon finished second in the 
tournament, but Washington, 
Washington State and Central 
Washington topped the Oregon 
performance. 
The Ducks hosted their own 
NCWSA Southern Area Tennis 
Tournament May 7-8, in which eight 
Oregon teams participated. Strong 
Duck showings were made by 
Layton, who won the no. 2 singles 
competition; Linda Hartling, 
runner-up in the no. 3 singles, and 
Julie Hutchison, a runner-up in the 
no. 6 singles. Sophomores Borchers 
and Layton doubled to take second 
place doubles. Brenda Stroud and 
Laurie Butte took second in no. 3 
doubles. 
The Duck team slipped from a 
first-day leading spot to finish fourth 
in the tournament, held Friday and 
Saturday. The Ducks, who had three 
singles and two doubles going into 
the championships, had to settle for 
51 points, behind Lewis & Clark (52), 
Southern Oregon (56) and the 
winner Oregon State, with 62 points. 
Other competing schools were 
Linfield, Willamette, Portland State 
and Oregon College of Education. 
The team finished with a 4-8 
season record, but Borchers and 
Layton finished the season with an 
8-3 record.

Track and Field 
All three relay teams go to nationals
 
It's not easy to build one of the 
nation'a strongest women's track 
teams when the program is just 
three years old. And with seven girls 
running the 880 in 2:22 or better, 
the Ducks have compiled one of the 
best two-mile relay teams in the 
country. 
Coming off strong performances 
in the first two meets of the season, 
the women's team was co-favorite 
with Oregon College of Education 
(OCE) to win the Oregon-California 
Invitational track meet. Without 
sprinter Carol Amaral, who was out 
with the flu, the Ducks scored 1161/2 
points, just 7lfz points behind winner 
OCE. 
Oregon had a number of 
individual standouts. Mary Officer 
broke a school record in the 
400-meter intermediate hurdles and' 
qualified for the Association of 
Intercollegiate Athletics for Women 
(AIAW) national meet. Officer won 
the event in 1:03.8. She also 
captured the 100-meter high hurdles 
in 15.2 and the long jump with an 
18-2 effort. 
Kim Conner, meanwhile, met 
AIAW qualifying standards in the 
mile as she won the event in 5:04.1. 
Oregon's Dala Ramsey, close behind 
in 5:05.3, also qualified for the 
national meet. 
The Ducks' other first-place 
winner was Karen Marshall, who 
triumphed in the discus with a 
133-5 throw. She was second in the 
shot put at 43-4Vz. 
The Ducks sent all three relay 
teams to nationals, where they 
placed 19th overall out of 51 teams 
represented. Oregon finished ninth 
in nationals last year, not faring as 
well this year in Manhatten, Kansas.

Club Sports 
Winning isn't everything 
In a world of collegiate sports 
often marred by professionalism, 
financial complexities and a 
satitation of the winning-is­
everything philosophy, where can 
one find satisfaction in simply 
participating? 
Club Sports. It's coed, it's 
competitive and it's a recreational 
program for University students 
designed to meet the athletic needs 
that are not met by the existing

success of this program) is the 
emphasis placed on participation 
and competition rather than 
winning. 
Each club sport is organized and 
run by students. Coaches are

on the back, "you've got a lot to 
learn, and I'm here to teach you!" 
"You are?" 
"Of course! But first, where's 
your backpack?" 
Things were happening too fast. 
"My what?" 
"Your backpack! What, did you 
leave it in your quad or something?" 
"Uh, no, I don't have a backpack. 
I don't do much camping, you see, 
I'm from Manha ... " 
"Don't have a backpack!" 
bellowed T.A.O.S. "Good heavens, 
man, you can't survive without a 
backpack! " 
"But like I said, I don't do a lot of 
camping ... " 
"That has nothing to do with it­
no one camps in Oregon, it rains too 
much! But you've got to get one for 
campus survival! Here, look at 
mine!" With that he began 
removing his huge dayglo orange 
pack. It took him a long time to get 
it off-it might have been my 
imagination, but it seemed as if it 
was attached to him. 
"Take a look!" he thundered. 
With some hesitance I peered into 
its cavernous interior. Inside was a 
tennis racket and a can of balls, a 
raquetball racket, two pounds of 
freeze-dried pemmican, a quart of 
papaya yogurt, four Doobie 
Brothers albums, two spider plant 
cuttings, the Hobbit Tri logy, three 
Maxwell Parrish posters, a Joe 
Romania sunvisor, a three-day-old 
Emerald with an ad for a "funky 
house" circled, keys to a Volkswagen 
bug, a half-filled petition to stop 
SB-1, a ti n of mustache wax, a 
Caterpillar hat, a half-dozen guitar 
picks, a check from home for $175, 
a National Lampoon, half a lid of 
mostly stems, an unpaid bill from 
the Student Health Center for a 
penicillin shot, a Coke glass, an 
Oly tap, a hand-tooled belt depicting 
a two-color sunrise with a Jonathon 
Livingston Seagull bucklet, 11 
leaking medium point Bics, four 
dog-eared Peechees, a complete 
works of Shakespeare and a "Health 
Science" by Jones, Shainberg and 
Byer. 
"Wow," I breathed. 
"Dive on me Ronnie Lee!" 
shouted T.A.O.S. matter-of-factly. 
He eased the pack straps back into 
the grooves in his shoulders. "We'll 
make a Duck out of you yet! C'mon, 
let's go over to the P.E. building!" 
"Sure," I said, shrugging on my 
coat. 
"Hold it!" he yelled. He pointed 
an accusing finger at my jacket. 
"What is that!" 
I looked down at my navy-blue 
blazer self-consciously. 
"Uh, my coaL" 
"Your coat!" He was almost 
apoplectic. "But it hasn't got any 
down in it!" 
"Yeah, I know," I answered 
meekly. "I was told before I left 
that Oregon winters weren't all that 
cold, so I

"That's beside the point!" 
l.A.O.S. screamed. "Don't you 
know that goose down is the ultimate 
basis of life as we know it?" 
"The ultimate ba ... ?" 
"Good gracious, man, where have 
you been? Goose down is beauty, 
truth, purity, life, infinity ... " 
"All that?" 
"And more! Why, look at me!" 
I looked, and sure enough, from 
head to toe he was dressed in down 
stuffed apparel. On closer inspection 
I noted that even the rims of his 
eyeglasses were stuffed with the 
tiny feathers. 
"Goodness," I exclaimed. "You 
certainly do wear a lot of ... " 
"Enough of that!" he cried. 
"Let's get over to the P.E. building!" 
We charged through the 
downpour and soon found ourselves 
in the men's locker room. 
"Uh, I know this may sound 
dumb, but what are we doing here?" 
I asked. 
"Doing here!" T.A.O.S. blinked· 
at me incredulously. "Why, we're 
going to get ready to run!" 
"From what?" 
I was really beginning to worry 
about T.A.O.S., the veins on his 
forehead were standing out like a 
relief map of Tibet. 
"From what? Great Scott, man, 
you don't run 'from' anything, you 
just run!" 
"You mean like a hamster on a 
treadmill?"

"No, no, I mean like a duck on a 
bikepath!" 
"Oh, I see," I said, though I 
didn't really. "Okay, I'll get my 
stuff." Quickly, Ipulled out my 
clothes and began donning my P.E. 
attire. As I was pulling on my shoes 
T.A.O.S. resumed his now-familiar 
expression of revulsion. 
"What," he cried, pointing at my 
shoes, "are those?" 
I eyed my footwear critically. 
"We-II," I said at last, "just offhand 
I'd say they were shoes, but then 
again I'm not ... " 
"Shoes! Shoes!" T.A.O.S.'s screams 
triggered the fire prevention 
sprinklers, sending streams of water 
cascading between us. "You call 
those shoes? Those are ... 
K-K-Keds! " 
"Yeah, I know," I said. "They were 
on sale at Macy's and I just ... " 
"Good Lord, man, in Oregon if 
you die while wearing Keds they 
won't even bury you! Now here's a 
shoe!" he hollered, waving his 
encased foot in my face. "It's a Nike 
Bill Bowerman Waffle No. 12, with 
beveled uppers, custom-weighted 
heel counters, polyethylene laces, 
alpacalining, center-pull brakes, 
atomic ... " 
"Hey, pal," broke in a voice from 
behind me. I whirled to see a figure 
dressed much like myself, but even 
without the clothes I would have 
recognized him as a newcomer to 
the University of Oregon campus, 
since he didn't have a beard. "Is 
dis creep botherin' youse?" 
Brooklyn! This guy was practically 
my next-door neighbor! 
"Uh, no, it's okay," I said. 
"Well, I jest t'ought I'd check. 
I been here for a coupla' weeks an' 
I know dese eco-freaks can get unda 
ya skin if ya let 'em. By da way, ya 
don't happen ta know where I can 
dig up a sixth for stickball, do ya?" 
I was ecstatic. "Do I? Why, I'm 
the gutsiest stickballer north of 
Newark! " 
"Oat's great! Let's get goin'! Da 
field's da intersection of Franklin 
an' Agate. Da traffic's a little heavy 
dere but de grease spots is just da 
right consistency." 
I expected T.A.O.S. to raise a fuss 
if we walked away, but he was just 
sitting in the spray of the sprinkler, 
staring at his shoe and gurgling, 
"Waffle, waffle, waffle," over and 
over again. As we turned to leave 
my pal jerked a thumb at the 
helpless, quivering figure. 
"It just goes ta show ya. Da woild 
is like a cocktail party-no matter 
where ya go, dere are always nuts." 
With that we broke into a brisk jog, 
and soon we were out the door and 
splashing through the glorious 
Oregon rain. 
Campaign '76 
Election year brings candidates to Eugene 
Four presidential candidates and 
one candidate's wife made Eugene 
the stumping grounds in the midst 
of state primary campaigning-Betty 
Ford, Jimmy Carter, Jerry Brown, 
Ronald Reagan and Frank Church. 
The First Lady was first in the line 
of whirlwind stops. She arrived 
amidst and almost carnival 
atmosphere-students lined the 
sidewalks and stood elbow-to­
elbow in the EMU Fishbowl where 
First Mama was to have a "student 
lunch." 
As black limousine-type 
automobiles and a press bus threw 
out reporters, secret service men 
and other dignitaries, Betty was only 
a frail hand waving in a sea of faces. 
Approaching the deli, she ordered 
the now famous First Lady Special­
ham and swiss on sourdough, ala 
sprouts. She dined with such student 
personalities as Ron Lee, ASUO 
Pres. Jim Bernau, Oregon Daily 
Emerald editor Jim Gregory, Jamie 
Burns, Jan Oliver, Jon Kvistad, 
Thomas Dulcich, Carolyn Eden, 
James Fitzhenry, Jo Nugent and Meg 
Hennison. 
And eat, she did. Betty provided 
lunch conversation, a "oggle" treat 
for University students and a forum 
for student hecklers. 
"People like to see the family and 
see what the Ford family is all about. 
From my being around the country, 
I know a lot of people relate well to 
me. That's helpful toward getting 
votes. I'm not talking on the issues." 
Jimmy Carter made his Eugene 
stop next, but did not grace the 
University campus. In a downtown 
mall speech, Carter touched on 
issues from abortion to nuclear 
power with his ever-flashing smile 
inbetween. 
Carter predicted a first ballot win 
at the Ju Iy 12 Democratic 
convention, but was not as 
confident of his chances in Oregon's 
May 25 primary. 
"For me to be running in six 
primaries Tuesday puts me in a 
definite disadvantage," he said. "I 
would like to win in Oregon ... a 
loss would be damaging." 
Before some 6,000 Eugeneans, 
Carter-in 15 minutes-promised 
full-scale reorganization of federal 
agencies, close examination of the 
welfare system and the overhauling 
of an income tax system that is "a 
disgrace." 
The underdog, California Gov. 
Jerry Brown, proved most 
charismatic figure at his campus 
appearance. Students literally 
crawled about the EMU terrace and 
balconies for the best duck-eye view 
of the "un" official. 
Write-in candidate Brown,

preceeded by Nashville star Ronnie 
Blakely, exchanged quips with 
student questioners and left the 
crowd spell-bound with his 
calculated wit and charm. 
"A president is not a Santa Claus 
with a bag of tricks," he said. "I 
don't want to over-sell or over­
promise." 
But with all the talk of fiscal 
frugality, Brown had to admit if he 
won in November-yes, Virgina-he 
would live in the White House. 
Following the California governor 
was former California governor and 
yesteryear movie star Ronald 
Reagan. 
Reagan drew a crowd of about 300 
at his Mahlon Sweet Airport stop, 
but only talked-no handshaking. 
The predominantly middle-age 
group seemed appropriate. Reagan 
had only that day been booed and 
catcalled at Oregon State 
University's Gill Coliseum. The 
214 - campaign '76 
Eugeneans displayed signs of "You 
tell 'em Ronnie." 
Reagan seemed sure that he 
wouldn't do well in the primary. 
"I'm an underdog here. We're 
hoping at least for a good showing 
of delegates ... but the odds are 
against it." 
Yet he still professed hope for a 
first ballot win in the August 
Republican convention. 
The last of the presidential 
hopefuls, Idaho Sen. Frank Church, 
spoke to University students the day 
before the primary-one he called 
"crucial" to his candidacy. 
Church, accompanied by his wife 
Bethine, got down to the student 
level by tossing a frisbee in the 
Whitebird Greater Frisbee 
Marathon. 
Students carried placards pleading 
"Save the whales," and questions 
were often repetitious. 
The late-announced candidate, 
famous for his revelations in the 
Senate committee investigation of 
the CIA, received endorsement 
from Oregon Gov. Bob Straub. 
The stumpers now gone, 
University students took their 
impressions to the polls. And true to 
form, last impressions left a mark. 
Church took the primary 
statewide with Carter second. But 
Lane County voters put their hope 
in Brown. Republicans put their 
votes for Betty's husband over 
challenger Reagan. 
Yet election problems continued 
past the tallying with discrepencies 
in the write-in votes and charges 
voiced of out-of-state voters 
registering under Oregon's new 
election law which allowed voters 
to register up to 5 p.m. the day of 
the primary. 
But for the presidential seekers, 
Oregon was merely another stop on 
the campaign trail to other 
universities, elections, wins and 
losses. And it was a good excuse to 
skip class, while it lasted. 
campaign '76 - 215 
Mock Democratic Convention
 
•Humphrey-Brown win
 
What was a typical rolicking 
weekend for some, was a two-d 3)" 
experiment in politics for 800 other 
students. 
Through the efforts of the 
Political Science Student Union 
(PSSU), the Mock Democratic 
Convention became reality May 13 
and 14. 
Bobbing, glittering and balloon 
festooned signs, banners and 
campaign paraphenalia littered the 
floor of Mac Court-a scene that 
could well have been in New York. 
The convention was complete 
with pressure groups, independent 
and often off-beat candidates, 
speeches and of course delays-the 
introduction was 40 minutes late. 
University Pres. William Boyd 
opened the convention and was 
booed by some of the delegates. 
The convention's main business 
the first night was to elect three 
chairers and vote on the party 
platform. 
After tedious roll calls, Gail Ehman 
was elected head chairer, Stephen 
Hauck and Joe Davis first and 
second vice-chairers. 
Many became caught up in the 
more emotional issues such as 
abortion, the B-1 Bomber, and 
women's rights. And others took the 
interim time during roll calls to 
quaff a hidden beer or scarf a hot 
dog from the concessions stand. 
After a 1 a.m. microphone cutoff, 
delegates that remai ned wandered 
out of the littered court wondering 
if anything was really accomplished 
-others emphatically cheered 
political moves during the voting. 
Friday night began with 
nomination speeches and seconding 
speeches. 
Battles were waged between 
traditional southern voters and 
eastern and midwest movements. 
Jimmy Carter backers had predicted 
a first ballot win, but couldn't 
muster the margin. 
During the second ballot a throng 
of delegates at the back of the hall 
stepped up a "Stop Carter" 
movement and began chanting 
"Humphrey-Brown." 
216 - mock democratic convention 
Uncommitteds, Udall, Church and 
other delegates rallied to the 
unification movement. 
Reminiscent of "the real thing," 
members of the Revolutionary 
Student Brigade entered the hall 
chanting "mock democracy." They 
were eventually escorted outside. 
At the third ballot, Humphrey 
with only 195 votes at the first tally, 
took the nomination. During a 
15-minutes demonstration frisbee 
confetti, and paper airplanes flew 
through the air. 
After the high point of the 
evening died down, so did the 
interest of the delegates in the 
vice-presidential nominations. 
Nominees included Lloyd 
Bentsen, Birch Bayh, Alfred E. though charges of poor attendance,
 
Neuman, Micky Mantle and Ronnie use of alcoholic beverages and
 
Lee. Lee entered the hall amidst marijuana were voiced.

minority teapot continued to 
II with criticism. Herb Cawthorne, 
director of the Center for Self 
Development, publicly called the 
reorganization effort "a fraud." 
Cawthorne expressed support for 
the centers, but admitted they 
couldn't perform well because of 
little or no input from the very 
,e who would be most 
d-the students and minority 
mlllistrators. 
ennis DeGross, Native American 
m director, emerged as 
most vocal opponent. 
ss said he didn't believe the 
student unions (that Boyd 
ght could fill the gap left by the 
d centers), primarily political 
Itural, could serve the 
sm(l\\thts as advocates with the 
r""%~(~;!rthistrati?n.. . ~@lh furthering hiS pOint, DeGross 
announced the possibility of a 
lawsuit to keep the Native American 
clJltlJ,ral center and program open. 
Representative of the Oregon 
Community Panel on Indian Higher 
Education openly criticized Boyd's 
reorganization. 
But the president stood firm. He 
said the main purpose of the 
programs in the beginning was to 
provide minority students with a 
smoother transition to the entire 
University. "They weren't 
accomplishing that," Boyd said. He 
saw them as a deterrent, keeping the 
students in a "cultural cocoon." 
DeGross stood his ground. 
He vowed the Indian community 
would "fight this one all the way," 
making every effort "to discredit the 
untenable and discriminatory 
position taken by the University of 
Oregon." 
In order to prevent the loss of the 
ns' longhouse, an important 
nity and cultural meeting

"The only alternative would be to

do that would require the 
commitment of additional funds to 
support activities. That would 
preclude the needed diversion of 
monies and human energy from 
administrative services to academic 
concerns." 
Perhaps more than anyone gave 
him credit for, Boyd kne», he had 
opened Pandora's box.

It's said the best laid plans of 
and men oft go awry-Universit 
Pres. William Boyd's first major 
action of his University stay receiv 
as much criticism as black marks ~hat 
an unruly first grader could i 
accumulate in teacher's gradebook. 
The University's attempt to aid its 
minority/disadvantaged student 
population seethed with probler;ns 
since its inception in 1965 with i 
Upward Bound, brainchild of Gerald 
Bogen, vice-president for student 
affair. Every year the program(s) 
underwent some form of 
reorganization, ultimately adding 
more administrative, bureaucratic 
red tape. 
After a series of interim changes, 
the minority program was labeled 
Educational Opportunity Services 
(EOS) in 1973 and fell under the 
jurisdiction of Student Educational 
Programs, a division of Student 
Administrative Services. This, 
considered the most radical 
reorganization at the time, included 
the formation of four "cultural 
centers": BRIDGE, for low-income, 
disadvantaged white students; the 
Black Cultural Center; the Native 
American Program; Tezca, the 
center for Chicano students. 
After Bogen had prepared a 
proposal for yet another 
reorganization which includ 
dropping BRIDGE for lack 0 
enrollment, and after EOS 
Nancy Barcelo resigned, Boy 
one-and-a-half months after 
arrival turned EOS upsidedo 
Boyd's Aug. 15 plan (1) sh' 
program's leadership and 
coordination to the dean 
College of Liberal Arts (John 
Baldwin), (2) called for a rapid 
dismantling of EOS, (3) placed 
218 - eos, aop 
little or no administrative support. 
He also said he believed black, 
Chicano and Indian families would 
stop sending their children to the 
University if they didn't perceive a 
friendly atmosphere. 
Robert Coiner, former BRIDGE 
director, and Manuel Hernandez, 
Tezca director, were both offered 
interim positions and both refused. 
Coiner called the plan a "sham" and 
said it wouldn't benefit students 
academically. "The only thing 
academic in the new Academic 
Opportunities Program (AOP) is the 
title," he said. 
As EOS began to face, AOP 
became the punching bag. The new 
program could barely begin to 
function as school opened because 
of the disorder and disgust. Critics 
claimed the reorganization wouldn't 
accomplish much because it 
eliminated the four separate 
programs, taking away organized 
participation the groups might have 
had in curriculum development­
one aim of AOP. 
"No one is willing to admit how 
dismal it (EOS) was," Boyd said. "If 
you admit that, then you don't 
criticize attempts to improve it. It 
was an atrocity./I 
Others joined the struggle. The 
Department of Health, Education 
and Welfare announced a possible 
federal investigation prompted by a 
complaint filed by DeGross. He 
claimed the University violated the 
Federal Civil Rights Act and the 14th 
Amendment. 
The former directors, Cawthorne 
and DeGross complained the new 
budget, totaling $238,000 with only 
$25,000 going to curriculum 
\ 
development, was top heavy on the 
administrative side-unnecessary 
funding of already existing 
University functions. 
As the University saw the 
burgeoning problem, it created the 
Educational Opportunities 
Committee (EOC) to investigate the 
reorganization. 
Meanwhile, students and 
directors confronted Stoddard 
Malarkey, associate dean of liberal 
arts, and Willetta Wilson, acting 
assistant dean of liberal arts and 
AOP director, for a tense three-and­
one-half hour "summit meeting./I 
Right: Prof. Stoddard Malarkey feels the

eos-aop - 219 
EOS-AOP-------------­
(continued from page 219) 
Much of the discussion was 
heated, emotional and indicated the 
AOP plan was not clearly 
understood by all. Major questions 
remained unsolved because 
Malarkey and Wilson were not able 
to answer them. Malarkey was in the 
audience, but brought himself in 
the debate when he tried to clarify 
some points-but instead was faced 
with boos and hisses from the 
crowd. The Black Student Union 
read a statement supporting 
nonclosure of the centers, but 
would not answer questions. Earlier, 
MEChA had also supported 
nonclosure. 
Criticism was voiced about 
admissions and financial aid control. 
DeGross queried, "Over 75 per cent 
of the disadvantaged minority 
students are admissable under 
normal requirements. What right 
does the U of 0 have to demand 
they go through a special process, a 
segregated system?" 
In an Oregon Daily Emerald 
editorial, Boyd's plan was criticized 
as "not containing two major 
strong points in Bogen's proposal: 
an interim period in which changes 
in the program could have been 
done gradually and with more 
deliberation, and a greater emphasis 
on solicited input from the 
program's participants instead of 
University officials." 
And it exposed the faculty logic of 
Boyd's hope for the ASUO student 
unions: "ASUO-funded agencies, in 
order to be considered for IFC 
monies must prove they provide 
services for all University students 
and not just a special interest 
group." 
Disappointingly, the EOC 
completed its first report stating 
only that the decision was made too 
swiftly. The report completely 
ignored any judgments on 
procedure and quality. In 
comparison, soon after is 
convention in Portland, the 
National Congress of American 
Indians passed a resolution 
"deploring" Boyd's action. 
The University was restless and 
support for changes, any changes, 
began to surface. 
Seven faculty members from 
mainly the English and history 
220 - eos-aop 
departments presented a petition to 
Boyd proposing "some such 
agencies" be created in the liberal 
arts college to "provide interim 
support for minority students while 
the whole question of their future is 
formally reviewed and planned 
through consultations among 
administrative, faculty, student and 
community groups." 
Prof. Barre Toelken, spokesperson 
for the some 30 signers, said that 
many well-known professors 
believed the centers did have useful 
functions which should be 
continued. 
Soon after, a petition with 468 
student signatu res called for 
reconsideration of the "summer 
plan." Circulated by AOP student 
Ed Audelo, the petition asked for 
input from minority students and 
low-income whites to develop a 
program to meet their needs. 
Audelo went one step further. He 
organized and publicized an open 
public meeting for AOP students to 
air their views. The EOC invited 
written and oral testimony. The 
meeting brought out several faults 
with AOP, but the center of attack 
fell on Bob Campillo, associate 
director of financial aids and 
admissions, and Chris Munoz, his 
assistant. Students lambasted 
Campillo and Munoz saying they 
had misled students in recruiting 
and had misinformed them about 
financial aid both during the 
recruitment process and after they 
were admitted. 
"Many of the so-called AOP 
students have been given a lot of 
sham by the financial aids," said 
Gail Johnson, a freshman in the 
program. "These people are on 
power trips." 
Eric Wright, a sophomore, 
testified "one can be very easily 
intimidat~d by Munoz. My own 
impression of Chris Munoz is that 
he's a mouse trying to be a lion." 
Only two students expressed any 
support for AOP. 
EOC stepped in the scene 
proposing an inquiry into "the 
alleged misuse of delegated 
authority" by Munoz and Campillo. 
Nevertheless, negotiations had 
already begun. DeGross announced 
in mid-April that he and Boyd had 
had a "very positive" meeting and 
expressed hope for similar meetings 
in the future. Boyd said he would 
take the role of "mediator. I'm 
contaminated. Things will develop 
better if I keep my distance." 
One of the first moves was a vast 
reorganization of student services, 
with the admissions, financial aid 
and academic advising facets of AOP 
cut. Students were to be processed 
through regular student services 
offices in the future, according to 
Donald Rhodes, dean of 
administrative services. 
"This will have a direct impact 
on AOP students in that they won't 
have to jump through a special hoop 
anymore," said Baldwin. 
Finally, the EOC in late April 
announced its findings, which were 
more than obvious: There are no 
established guidelines for planning, 
implementing and evaluating 
minority and disadvantaged student 
programs. Nor is there a definitive 
policy which speaks to the 
commitment of the University and 
the expectations of both the 
institution and AOP students. 
The report, highly critical of 
Boyd's plan, didn't offend him. "If 
anyone should be offended, I 
suppose it should be me. And I 
certainly took no offense from it." 
Most of the center directors and 
minority advocates supported the 
report, some with minor 
reservations. 
Chairer Katherine Eaton brought 
three motions before the General 
Faculty. With a 32-0, one abstention 
vote, the faculty passed an 
amended version of the last 
proposal which asked that faculty 
assist in the immediate formation of 
a committee to develop a 
cultural/racial/ethnic component 
at the University which speaks to the 
needs of minority disadvantaged 
students. The committee was to 
include representatives of affected 
groups, AOP staff and interested 
faculty (plus students other than 
minorities as amended). 
As the year closed, the furor died 
down and the teapot was again 
lukewarm as Dr. Frances Scott, 
director of the Oregon Center for 
Gerontology took the chair of the 
new committee-for perhaps a 
quieter summer than 1975.

-1976 protest chant 
Once a campus wrought with 
pol itical protests, the University 
has seen a resurgence of a 
comsumer-oriented student body 
with a different vendetta-tuition 
hikes. 
Sporadic rallies and posters 
declared, II No way we don't pay." 
But as March 23 neared, the date the 
Oregon State Board of Education ~I
would decide on a proposed 12 per 
cent tuition increase for 1976-77, 
student groups began varied plans 
of battle. 
The Committee to Fight for the 
Right to an Education (CFRE) an 
the Revolutionary Student Brigade 
(RSB), two holdouts of student 
activism, were often seen plodding 
along the EMU terrace on their way 
to johnson Hall, rain or shine, 
bearing placards of ungreeting: "If 
you ain't got the bucks, you gotta 
bitch," or "They say cut back, we 
say fight back." Often they were 
joined by other students with an 
unrelated cause-boycott grapes, 
CCDC vs. Adell McMillan, and save 
dorm RA Craig Magwire. 
"We are going to show that the 
great majority of students are very 
much opposed to and willing to 
fight what is happening to their 
education," said jane Loth, CFRE 
chairer. liThe State Board knows that 
the students are angry and are 
afraid of our power. They've 
scheduled a meeting to avoid a 
confrontation with students." 
The regularly scheduled March 
23 meeting seemed to conveniently 
fall during the University's spring 
break. 
But while the CFRE and the RSB 
made noise, the ASUO tried to fight 
the situation with proposals, 
alternatives, testimony and 
surveys-but none won the battle. 
One ASUO survey seemed to 
back up Loth's statement. It found 
that if tu itions increased another 15 
per cent, fully one-half of the 
Oregon students and two-thirds of 
the out-of-state students said they 
would no longer attend school. 
jim Bernau, ASUO president, 
voiced their basic concern: "We

tuition hike - 221 
'Tuition hike----------------­
(continued from page 221) 
believe that education is a right and 
there should be no financial 
barriers. " 
Here, the students' share of 
educational costs is closely related 
to the Legislature's reaction to the 
proposed budget for Oregon 
colleges. When a budget is okayed, 
the Legislature determines how 
much of the general tax funds will 
support the institutions and returns 
the decision to the State Board. The 
board then faces balancing the final 
budget by setting tuition or cutting 
programs. 
"There is really no alternative 
but to raise tuitions," said Keith 
Jackson, board budget director. "I 
don't see any possibility of a 
reduction as long as inflation 
continues. The state can't give us 
much more support with the 
present tax structure because 
programs like welfare and 
unemployment aid have grown very 
rapidly and have taken much more 
money from the general tax base." 
The present system has the 
resident student paying for 27.5 per 
cent of his/her total educational 
costs while the nonresident pays a 
whopping 100 per cent. ASUO 
representatives offered an 
alternative, the most immediate­
lowering out-of-state tuitions. 
Bernau saw this move as attracting 
more nonresidents and thereby 
increasing total University revenue. 
Students met their first waterloo 
at Portland State University in late 
February. Only one member of the 
five-person Finance, Administration 
and Physical Plant Committee, 
University student Valerie Mcintyre, 
voted against recommending the 
tuition hike to the full board. 
CFRE and RSB members only 
irritated the situation by entering 
the room after the vote was taken, 
shouting and chanting. 
Chancellor Roy Lieuallen 
attempted to explai n the State 
Board had submitted a no-increase 
budget to the Legislature, but it 
failed to appropriate enough money 
to operate without the increase. 
University Pres. William Boyd 
voiced support of the increase but 
222 - tuition hike 
also warned the University would be 
hurt by less nonresident enrollment, 
would competitively hurt by higher 
dorm rates and there would surely 
be fewer foreign students. 
The second defeat seemed 
painless as students were 
off-campus enjoying anything but 
the Oregon rain. The State Board, 
with a 9-2 vote, approved the 12 
per cent tuition increase as well as 
dormitory increases throughout 
the state. Both hikes affected all 
state colleges and universities 
excluding Eastern Oregon State 
College and La Grande. 
Tuition for the 1976-77 school 
year was raised (based on the basic 
instructional fee) to $179 per term 
for undergraduate residents, up 
$18; nonresident undergraduates 
$710 per term, up $62; graduate 
students $311 per term, up $46, and 
law students $467 per semester, up 
$69. (Non-law students also pay $59 
per term for building, health and 
incidental fees. Law students pay a 
total of $238.50 per semester in 
additional fees.) 
The two dissenting votes were, 
appropriately, from the two 
student members of the board. 
"If we're going to continue to ask 
students to tighten their belts, we're 
going to have to ask everybody to 
tighten their belts," said Mcintyre. 
"We need a massive revision (of 
the budget), starting from ground 
zero." 
Joining McIntyre in disapproval 
was Portland State University 
student Marc Maden. "This board 
has been remarkably efficient in 
raising tuitions," Maden complained. 
But Bernau and his associates kept 
firing alternatives at the board. "We 
find there are present places in the 
budget where we can save costs," 
Bernau said. Two major ideas were 
presented. One stated reducing 
approved faculty salary hikes from 
10 per cent to eight per cent, saving 
about $2 million. The other saving 
would come from using an extra 
$202,000 of unexpected income 
from 1975 to reduce the hike. (The 
board planned to raise $3.6 to $3.8 
million by hiking instructional fees.) 
Post-war strategy saw Bernau and 
ASUO assistants speaking before the 
Interinstitutional Fee Committee, 
which agreed there should be no 
tuition increase for the 1977-79 
biennium. He also testified before 
the legislative subcommittee on 
post-secondary education. 
"Some kind of rationale has to be 
developed" in reviewing the state 
tuition policy, he said. It would 
include "an examination of 
students' ability to pay tuition." 
Bernau explained that students are 
"voluntarily poor" and must cope 
with rising prices of housing, books 
and food as well as tuition. 
T.K. Olson, executive director of 
the Education Coordinating 
Commission Financing Committee 
exp.ressed similar sentiments. He 
stated during the last 10 years the 
increase in per student cost of 
operation in the universities has 
been 200 per cent. He also testified 
to the committee that state policy in 
the past has been to institute 
programs for scholarships and grants 
to students who could not afford 
skyrocketi ng prices rather than 
holding the tuition down, which 
would force the state to pay the 
difference. 
More pleading, this time before 
the State Board Finance Committee, 
the scene of the first waterloo, also 
garnered a recommendation for no 
tuition hikes for the 1977-79 
biennium provided the budget 
remained untouched. 
But such recommendations were 
not seen as solutions. Jim David, 
ASUO vice-president wrote during 
his unsuccessful campaign for 
president, "Year after year students 
in higher education are hit with 
tuition increases. This, combined 
with the problem of insufficient 
financial aid, threatens to deprive 
persons of access to higher 
education. It is the mission of a 
responsible, well-run student 
association to work to alleviate these 
problems." 
Davis proposed students become 
an independent body, not aligning 
with faculty or administrators in the 
confrontation. "We as students can 
make ou r case most effective by 
responsibly arguing for both cutting 
unnecessary costs and altering the 
tuition proportion of the budget." 
Yet the battle was not won. The 
1976 tuition increase was nearly 
double the average national hike 
according to College Scholarship 
Service. And Oregon rated far 
below par in the average number of 
tax dollars allocated per student as 
shown in a survey conducted by the 
National Institute for Educational 
Statistics. 
And we were by no means alone. 
College Press Service reported, 
"Proposed tuition hikes at the 
University of Oklahoma gave about 
150 students cause to march on the 
administration building. The 
university president met with 
students outside and kept them 
outside by posting guards and 
locking the doors." 
But here, as Bernau stated, 
"Students are a ping-pong ball­
they're hitting us back and forth 
between the Legislature and the 
State Board."

president. 
The ASUO Executive surely would 
have liked 36 or even 48-hour days 
with the work load that accumulated 
under the leadership of ASUO Pres. 
Jim Bernau. Bernau's administration 
fought battle after battle for 
students' rights-more often than 
not, the downs outnumbered the 
ups. 
Yet Bernau saw an administration 
pioneer the concept of educational 
consumerism and collective 
bargaining by publishing the first 
Consumer's Guide to Classes and 
establishing the ASUO as sole 
collective bargaining agent for 
University students. 
Faculty Evaluations 
With the passage of Senate Bill 
413, faculty could now review all 
information on file and discover 
evaluation authors, except in the 
case of student course evaluation 
survey forms which by law are 
anonymous. Bernau sought access 
to the same fi les for students. 
The first battle looked like an easy 
win. Bernau felt confident that 
faculty would approve manda-tory 
evaluations. And he was sure he 
would gain support to allow student 
access to publish tabulations in a 
course survey book. But he had to 
deal, not the first and hardly the last 
time, with University Pres. William 
Boyd. 
"Students have a legitimate right 
to know as much as possible about a 
course before they sign up for it, 
including the instructor," Boyd said. 
But, he continued, he'd rather see 
the students carry out a course 
evaluation plan on their own 
outside the classroom. 
Bernau had threatened to do just 
that. But it would only defeat his 
hope of the evaluations being 
involved in promotion, tenure and 
merit-raise decisions. He cited a 
study revealing a major reason 
224 - asuo ups and downs 
course drops exceed adds, and why 
many students decline to sign up for 
15 hours or more, was because 
students are ill-informed about 
available courses. 
His battle was attacked by the 
co-sponsors of SB-413-Sen. Clifford 
Trow, D-Corvallis, and Rep. Tony 
Van Vliet, R-Corvallis-who said 
they never intended their legislation 
to allow students access to class 
evaluations without prior consent. 
Impatience and action pushed 
Bernau to request that Boyd, under 
an Oregon State Board of Higher 
Education ruling requiring 
institutional executives to determin{; 
privacy rights to those materials, 
begin acting on a decision. . 
Boyd responded with a 
predictable " no," claiming faculty 
opposition to the proposal. Bernau 
saw the move as a false indication of 
the faculty's feeling; Boyd was 
avoiding the issue. 
The faculty spoke up, too. Edward 
Diller, Honors College director, said 
as the Faculty Senate gave a thumbs 
up to the proposal, "It seems strange 
that people who spend their whole 
life evaluating others have spent so 
much energy over the past few years 
trying to avoid being evaluated 
themselves. " 
The trend was set. Bernau would 
see hope, be cut down, and watch a 
proposal hanging in limbo. 
EMU Tavern 
The EMU Tavern proposal proved 
a bit brighter. The idea for an 
on-campus pub had been in the 
works since 1972 when students 
envisioned a completed tavern with 
the new EMU addition. As Boyd 
filled former Pres. Robert Clark's 
shoes, the ASUO had to wait for 
approval. 
July 1975 brought the first EMU 
Beer Gardens to the open courtyard. 
After six summer ventures, EMU 
Director Adell McMillan termed 
them"a tremendous success." But 
she added they were not a tavern 
experiment "although the large 
turnout at them would have to be a 
positive sign." 
An ad hoc committee consisting 
began work on contractors and 
possible sites. The ASUO polled 
students at fall registration for their 
favorite brew among 13 available 
brands. Twenty-eight per cent of 
2,179 students preferred Budweiser, 
with Olympia and Michelob lying 
for second. A later poll revealed 
over 78 per cent of the respondents 
favored the sale of beer on campus 
and 72.5 per cent felt a tavern was 
the best way to carry out the goal. 
Yet again the administration 
proved the backstop. Boyd strongly 
opposed the tavern and called it a 
"bogus, political need." His 
"personal unfriendliness" to what 
he later called a perfectly legitimate 
request, was laced with fears of 
policing problems, discrimination 
against under-age students, 
competition, and anxiety of "the 
increasing level of youthful 
drinking." 
Boyd also noted, "You've got to 
hustle beer to make money, and a 
college shouldn't hustle a product." 
The summer gardens had netted a 
$100 profit, with beer at 30 cents a 
glass. In October, the gardens were 
reopened with a new emphasis. 
"This is going to be an experiment 
in a regular academic-year setting 
with full enrollment and younger 
students on campus to prove that 
we can handle the possible 
problems that some have voiced," 
Bernau said. 
Soon it was evident that Bernau 
was serious about opening the 
facility in the spring. In late October 
the ASUO had already spent $1,120 
of the $5,000 EMU Tavern Research 
Fund. Two "tavern research" trips, 
one to Colorado and another to San 
Jose, had shed new light on the 
tavern proposal. Bernau and 
administrative assistant Mike Budd 
traveled to all colleges in Colorado 
discussing the taverns in use. 
"The Colorado trip was invaluable. 
It changed our perspective-our 
format-our whole approach to the 
problem. We were naive as hell 
before we went. If we had . 
continued with our original plans 
we would have lost the tavern," 
Bernau explained. 
Budd said the trip "made us 
realize we had to involve the 
community in the process ... As the 
second largest industry in Lane 
County what we do affects the 
whole community of Eugene-not 
just our campus community." 
The San Jose jaunt was to 
"basically look at a college in a state 
with the same drinking age 
requirements as Oregon." 
As the date of proposal 
submittance to Boyd drew near, 
committee chairer Fitzhenry stated 
a feasibility study had been 
conducted by MBA Consultants, 
Inc., a nonprofit consulting 
corporation of University graduate 
business students. The results were 
promising. 
Basing its findings on a study of 
fou r taverns ina fou r-block rad ius 
of the campus-Taylor's, Duffy's, 
Max's and Murphy and Me-the 
study said the tavern could generate 
more than $150,000 in yearly 
revenue. 
And with two pool tables, an 
additional $8,000 a year could be 
raked in. But the study stated, "a 
choice must be made between 
accruing a relatively small gain in the 
case when the tavern is operated by 
an outside contractor and the more 
risky but larger potential gain when 
the tavern is operated by the 
University." 
Spring arrived-no word on the 
proposal, and much to the 
disappointment of many a dry 
gullet, no tavern. 
McArthur Court Board 
Bernau's strong belief in students 
getting what they pay for, or in the 
McArthur Court case, what they 
paid for, brought the ASUO into a 
state of siege as the administration 
usurped every ounce of hope. 
Research conducted by Don 
Chalmers, ASUO research 
consultant, indicated then 
then-ASUO, Inc. was sole owner of 
Mac Court as appeared on the 
architect's contract and the general 
construction contract. The students 
made an original investment of 
$208,000 for a building now valued 
at over $1 million. 
Student control was eaten away 
offices were moved from Mac 
Court. 
The students realized this as an 
important issue. Work soon began 
on a McArthur Court Board­
student controlled. 
"We paid for it and now are being 
denied the right to use it as we wish. 
A lot of lip-service is given to ou r 
part in controling it, but when it gets 
right down to it, we have no 
control," said Kirby Garrett, ASUO 
vice-president. 
The present system maintains the 
Athletic Department (AD) as 
responsible for policy and the EMU 
responsible for scheduling. The . 
ASUO had a better idea. 
Dave Donley, Incidental Fee 
Committee and EMU Board 
member, explained the proposal 
would consist of two president­
appointed faculty members and two 
members and a chairer appointed 
by the ASUO president; the AD 
director and the University vice­
president for administration and 
finance would be ex-officio, non­
voting members. 
The board would be responsible 
for policy, for scheduling, for 
financial matters and for establishing 
its own operational procedures and 
rules. It would report and be 
responsible to the University 
president or his designated 
representative. 
The word was out and the battle 
was with words. 
"We have grounds for a damages 
and reparations suit if we want to," 
said Garrett. "The ASUO is being 
denied the right to determine 
proper usage of its own building. 
The time has come for the students 
to regain control." 
It wasn't exactly reminiscent of 
the 1960s, but administrators still 
didn't like the looks of it. 
Ray Hawk, vice-president for 
administration and finance, gave 
tentative approval to the proposal in 
October, but only two months later 
decided to change horses. He 
explained the board would merely 
interfere with managements' ability 
to manage. 
"I don't see a committee 
approving or setting policy but just 
making recommendations." He saw 
the board as a "c1assic problem of 
users wanting to govern a used 
facility." 
Chalmers argued, "This seems 
contradictory because the AD, who 
is one of the primary users of Mac 
Court, is in essence the governor of 
that facility." 
But Hawk retorted, "Once a 
building is paid for, regardless of the 
source of funds, ownership reverts 
to the state." 
Chalmers cited the EMU Board as 
an example of a group of mainly 
students working c1os~ly with 
professional employes and 
maintaining a differentiation 
between setting gener'al policy and 
everyday administration. 
Despite the student­
administration war, the Faculty 
Senate voted 26-12 to recommend 
the proposal. Just as the ASUO 
began to chalk one up, a letter from 
Boyd was read. He said he 
considered it"ani nappropriate 
way to administer that facility," and 
viewed it as "inconsistent with my 
duties of facilities management as I 
see them." 
Hawk added,"1 am in no way 
critical of the students ... They have 
done well, but it isn't wise to give 
any group, student or faculty, 
governance rights." 
The ASUO again threatened legal 
action, but the scene was already set 
for a confrontation-the General 
Faculty meeting in mid-January. 
Boyd, in possibly an 
unprecedented move, relinquished 
the chair to speak in opposition of 
the proposal. "Questions of where 
authority lies in the University 
community are perhaps the most 
dangerous of all questions," he said. 
Boyd spoke for nine minutes and 
was followed by his legal counsel, 
Dave Frohnmayer. 
"The specific language in the 
proposal is a serious pitfall. It puts 
the University and its president on 
a collision course with the law," 
Frohnmayer claimed.

(continued from page 225) 
Boyd concluded, "I ask you to 
defeat this motion." 
Biology department head Sanford 
Tepfer offered a motion to table the 
proposal. The faculty 
overwhelmingly complied. 
Chalmers, disgusted, said­
reminiscent of an earlier quote-"I 
would rather be beaten in a public 
place than see the University faculty 
cower to tactics demonstrated by 
the University administration in 
their discussion of the McArthur 
Court Board proposal." 
Another up, another down-this 
time in "the Pit." But Bernau refused 
to admit defeat. He said his next 
move would be to approach the 
Oregon State Board of Higher 
Education "and ask for our money 
back. Since the students paid for the 
building, we deserve to be 
reimbursed in some way." 
Boyd growled that Bernau would 
receive strong opposition if he 
renewed student efforts to establish 
the board. The ASUO mentor 
refused to accept "this obvious 
attempt to throw us off the track. 
The issue that is very apparent is one 
of the faculty's rights and power to 
set up such a board. If I ignore this, 
I would be denying them something 
I think is rightfully theirs. I would be 
agreeing with Boyd that the faculty 
have no say in University decisions." 
Another proposal had joined 
those already in limbo. 
Collective Bargaining 
Bernau made his best progress 
when dealing directly with the 
students. His idea of collective 
bargaining was discussed with 
administrators, but the issue was 
taken directly to the voters. 
The referendum called for 
abolition of the ASUO's role as 
student government and 
reestablishing it as a collective 
bargaining agent. The union would 
bargain on students' behalf 
regarding fees and charges, housing, 
employment, degree requirements, 
grievance procedures and other 
terms and conditions of students' 
education. 
An opinion poll before the 
general election resulted in 77 per 
226 - asuo ups and downs, marathons 
cent of 500 students agreeing that 
"students should have a right to 
bargain collectively with the 
University administration." 
The referendum passed 1,261 to 
488. 
Bernau's encounters with a 
traditional administration featured 
similar scenarios during the year. Yet 
he attempted to bring the real 
consumer-oriented world into the 
artificial University environment. 
The ASUO's efforts were valid­
hopefully administrations to come 
will realize that validity; we cannot 
live in a glass world away from our 
rights as first class citizens and 
consumers.

college, they begin a dull and 
diligent life. First, they stand in line 
at the resident assistant's door, 
waiting to see what dorm floor they 
get to painstakingly climb to each 
day. Then they anxiously stand in 
line in front of Mac Court, half-an­
hour before they are allowed inside 
to start that wonderful game called 
registration. Unfamiliar with the 
traffic pattern, the tired feet lead the 
baffled and confused student round 
and round the tables, eventually 
locating the lengthy lines for 
popular classes that are already 
closed. 
Then it's off to the EMU Ballroom 
to pay fees. Waiting. And waiting. 
and waiting some more, only to find 
that there is a difference between 
the deferred tuition line and the one 
for scholarships and grants. 
The Bookstore always has a record­
breaking line attendance the first 
week of school. And don't forget 
the irritating wait to drop classes or 
change grade options on the last 
day. 
Not all standing in line is 
unpleasant, though. Waiting for the 
doors of Mac Court to open before 
basketball games can be quite 
amusing. The tricks of the trade are 
easily learned: 
228 - standing in line 
1.	 Shift weight from one foot to
 
the other.
 
2.	 Sit down whenever possible. 
3.	 Bring beverages to help you 
forget about the throngs of 
people in front of you. 
4.	 Do not wear platform shoes. 
5.	 Bring your roommate's textbook
 
and pretend to read.
 
Waiting to go into the dormitory ; 
cafeteria isn't nearly as entertaining 
as standing with the pack, remaining 
stationary in readiness and 
expectation, for a hot dog at the Pad 
on Tuesday nights. This is just as 
typical as standing in line for a table 
at Mazzi's on Saturday night. Or 
Sunday. Or Monday. 
The Oregana researched the sore­
feet-from-standing-in-line issue 
and fou nd that the average 
undergraduate logs and average 
of 2,000 meters every average half 
hour on the average day of average 
classes. It was also hypothesized that 
the streaking craze of several years 
ago was a revolt on the whole 
revolting process of standing in line. 
The University is not totally blind 
to the standing in line problem. 
It has been suggested by an 
anonymous Recreation and Parks 
Management spokesperson that 
every student should be supplied 
with a collapsible camp stool to 
carry around in case of an attack of 
standing in line too long. Action 
was postponed on this issue until 
further research cou Id be compiled. 
Students line up at the University of Oregon
 
Bookstore on the corner of 13th and Kincaid.
 
It is times such as these that students should
 
stand up for their rights, and their very sore
 
feet too.
 
EDUCATION: A HERITAGE AND FUTURE FOR OREGON

Education: A Heritage and Future 
for Oregon provides the theme for 
the University of Oregon Centennial 
which began on January 1, 1976. 
The University dates its 
establishment from grass roots 
efforts to build a state university in 
Eugene during the late 1870's. 
Citizens of the area were called on 
to donate time, money, and effort 
to construct the first building. 
Establishing the University was a 
difficult task and more than once, 
citizens of Lane County suffered 
frustrations. 
In 1881, the University's only 
building was almost auctioned by 
the sherriff to pay several 
construction liens against the 
building. But efforts by the town's 
citizens and University benefactor 
Henry Villard managed to raise 
enough money to pay the debt. 
When the University's first class 
graduated in 1878 there were just 
five members in the graduating 
class. The community celebrated the 
event. Newspaper accounts 
reported that people donated art 
works to hang on the walls of the 
auditorium and hundreds turned 
out to honor the first graduates. 
Today the University of Oregon 
enrolls some 16,000 students and 
graduates more than 3,500 persons 
with bachelor's, master's and 
doctorate degrees every year. 
The University of Oregon is an 
officially designated Bicentennial 
University by the American 
Revolution Bicentennial 
Administration (ARBAl. 
The designation recognizes the 
lJO's "committment to participate 
in the commemoration of our 
nation's 200th anniversary," 
according to Wesley A. Phillips, 
ARBA regional director in Seattle. 
230 - centennial 
William Boyd was inaugurated as 
the 12th president of the University 
January 17, 1976 amidst shouts of 
protest, applause and police arrest. 
Ivan Niven, centennial marshal, 
welcomed the crowd. At that point, 
members of a "guerrilla theater" in 
white face and costume interrupted 
the proceedings with shouts and 
jeers. As police hauled the 
protestors out of the ballroom, one 
theater member donned a German 
army helmet and began shouting 
"What we need is law and order!" 
When Boyd took the podium to 
give his remarks, he asked the 
audience to be tolerant of protestors 
outside the ballroom, explaining 
that the University is an open society 
which "makes it vulnerable to 
demonstrations such as these." 
Boyd said he hoped the University 
would have the vision and courage 
to shape a future worthy of its past. 
As he concluded his short speech, 
the audience gave him a standing 
ovation. 
Another highlight of the 
afternoon ceremony was the 
premiere performance of the 
centennial composition. Titled 
"Centennial Variations and Finale," 
it consists of musical salutes to six 
campus buildings and a finale 
summing up the University's first 
100 years. 
George Laymen, president of the 
Oregon State Board of Higher 
Education, performed the investiture 
of Boyd. At this point the protestors, 
whose shouts had punctured the 
proceedings throughout, became 
louder, forcing Laymen to raise his 
voice. Ten arrests were made during 
the ceremonies. By the time 
ceremonies were over, there were 
more than 20 police officers on 
hand. Gerald Bogen, vice president 
for student affairs, said he was 
responsible for calling in the 
additional police. 
A symposium on the heritage and 
future of education included 
panelists Kingman Brewster, 
president of Yale University;

Flagraising was a 
Centennial celebration 
Monday, Jan. 5 marked the 
beginning of the University of 
Oregon's centennial year 
232 - centennial 
observances. The occasion was 
marked by the raising of the 
University's centennial flag at the 
Erb Memorial Union Plaza. 
Musical selections by the 
University Brass Choir started the 
noon ceremony. President William 
Boyd made an opening address 
along with ASUO Pres. Jim Bernau. 
The presidents jointly raised the 
flags to the top of the pole. 
Alsospeaking at the ceremony 
was Charles Roffe, a member of the 
centennial planning council. The 
flagraising kicked off the new 
year, and many alumni and faculty 
were present for the ceremonies. 
Most students were still on their 
winter vacations.

Round-up 
Centennial flags ripped off 
by University students 
Remember the flap when 14 
University of Oregon Centennial 
banners were reported stolen? Only 
one banner was ever returned. 
The green and yellow banner, 
slightly discolored and stained, was 
delivered to the University's 
Campus Security Office. 
Wrapped in a plain brown 
wrapper and neatly folded, it was 
accompanied by a note signed, 
"Sincerely a concerned student." 
The note was addressed "To those 
it most deeply concerns." It said the 
banner was taken to save it from the 
effects of the Oregon rain and 
weathering and "to preserve for 
memento (sic.) purely selfish." 
") now understand the 
importance of returning it and 
sincerely hope it will be incentive 
for others to do the same," the 
anonymous author wrote. 
The letter also contained a lengthy 
quote on integrity and honesty, 
attributed to Ayn Rand. 
The banners were used to 
decorate the campus as the U of 0 
marks its 100th birthday. 
Measuring three by five feet, each 
is treated with a special protective 
coating to ward off the effects of 
the Oregon rain and wind.

the people who traveled for miles to catch a 
glimpse of America's past. Unfortunately, one 
class of school children waited in line for five 
hours one day and never got close to the front 
of the line. But there were relatively few 
cases of such disappointment. 
More than 10 million people were expected 
to see the train. There are 25 cars in all. Two 
display cars can be viewed from the outside. 
In the final analysis, the wait, the $2 and the 
plethora of hawkers selling tons of "Freedom 
Train" commemoratives was worth all the 
excitement, all the waiting.

bicentennial- 237 
/t's no bull 
They're calling it a buy-centennial 
Exploitation of the bicentennial 
has been talked about and observed 
by everyone. But only one small 
town decided to do something 
about it. Awards for the "most 
tasteless exploitation" of the 
nation's 200th birthday were made 
in Luckenbach, Texas. 
The Non-Buy-Centennial award 
judge announced the Bad Taste 
Awards for the greatest abuse of the 
Bicentennial in spirit, in speech, 
writing or drawing. 
Omaha, Neb. was dubbed "Bad 
Taste City" for publicising a Bison 
named Tennial. 
Two products tied for a Bad Taste 
Award. The Falstaff Brewing Co. 
was cited for its Bicentennial beer 
cans, and Jackson Casket Co. of 
Jackson, Miss., for its red, white and 
blue flaglined caskets. 
The Bad Taste work of art award 
went to Hugh Best for an X-rated 
history of the American Revolution 
titled, "Red, Hot and Blue." 
The highlight of the day was the 
top Non-Buy-Centennial bad taste 
award which was presented to 
Midwest Breeder's Cooperative of 
Shawana, Wis., for its Bicentennial 
Semen Sale. 
An advertisement offering seven 
quarts of bull semen for the price 
of six was complete with a picture 
of George Washington. No one 
seemed to argue the point, 
although the awards event itself may 
have run a close second as 
thousands poured into town to 
attend Non-Buy-Centennial Awards 
Day.

University heritage: a continuing education
 
Heritage is a large part of 
education; thoughts and works of 
other people are the usual 
curriculum. What students achieve 
will in some way relate to the 
knowledge they have pursued, a.nd 
to the people who have assisted 
them along the way. 
The years at the University bring 
another type of heritage, too. The 
end of the Vietnam War. Watergate. 
The energy crisis. These events are 
foremost in the minds of many 
students. 
The University changed. Some 
students changed with it. Others 
couldn't. 
As freshmen students felt anxiety, 
a few even paranoia. Or perhaps, 
like Krista Jacobsen, a health major, 
they felt, "Iike a peon, lost in a sea." 
Over time these feelings 
diminished. Exposure to new people 
and new ideas cannot be without its 
effects. If nothing more, the years 
have added maturity. 
For America and the University, 
the 1976 Bicentennial/centennial 
242-seniors 
celebration is a recognition of the 
fruits of years of labor. For a student, 
it is a feeling of satisfaction at the 
progress that has been made, and a 
feeling of survival. The ability to 
design a building, to help a person 
with a handicap, or to fully 
understand and explain a 
complicated concept are some of 
the tangible results of all the effort. 
Less concrete, but perhaps more 
important, is what one senior 
described as a "more systematic 
way of thinking." 
"General awareness" is what Tim 
Cables, a finance major, called it. 
"I'm more equipped to recognize 
and deal with what problems come 
up," he said. There is also a 
recognition that education can 
change perspectives. 
"My total view on my existence in 
relation to the rest of the 
community has changed," 
architecture major Art Vertner 
commented. "It was really limited 
before to the things I could 
personally touch or see," Vertner 
said. "Now I feel things that affect 
other people. I have greater insight, 
and I guess I'm more philosophical." 
But where does insight and 
education take you once you leave 
the University? Some seniors have a 
specific idea of what they want to 
contribute, others know only what 
they wish to prevent. 
The anxiety of their freshman 
year probably comes back to haunt 
many seniors as they prepared for 
graduation. It is inevitable that the 
intervening years have made a 
difference in their ability to cope 
with new problems, and to learn 
from dealing with the problems. 
What one graduate said probably 
is true for most. "My education is"n't 
over yet. Life itself is now an 
education for me." 
Below Left: Proud father looks forward to 
the day his son will graduate. Below Right: 
Antonia Brico, conductor of the Brico 
sym'phony in Denver, bid the seniors adieu. 
Above: Graduation day means tears for 
those friends leaving, apprehension about 
getting a job and joy at seeing your name in 
the commencement program.

complex leave on a skiing trip. Opposite 
Page: Some have time to work on things 
other than homework. One person found 
time to work on his car (Above), while a 
woman finds time to clean the apartment 
windows (Below). 
0arried Student Housing 
Amazon opts to 'co-op'erate instead of 
A proposed increase in rental 
rates, ranging from $6 to $10 per 
month for the University's Amazon 
and Westmoreland married student 
housing projects, prompted an 
alternative plan by Amazon 
residents, initially ignored by 
University administrators. 
Amazon Cooperative Tenants 
(ACT) had planned to use a May 
113 hearing as a forum for presenting 
their plans for cooperative 
management of the Amazon 
complex, but were told that 
discussion would be limited to 
opposition or support of the rent 
increase. 
According to ACT representative 
Dave Zupan, the proposal included 
plans for establishment of a 
cooperative, managed and 
maintained by Amazon residents, 
making a rent increase unnecessary. 
ASUO Pres. Jim Bernau, 
convinced a rent increase was not 
the only alternative, said, "Students 
are usually criticized for 
complaining about an issue yet 
offering no viable alternatives. Then 
when students come prepared to 
the teeth, they sayan alternative 
is not releva nt to the pu rpose of 
the hearing." 
Two weeks later, University / 
Pres. William Boyd agreed to set up 
260-married student housi ng , 
a working task force to examine 
cooperative management plans fOf 
the Amazon complex. The 
examination was to be completed by 
Oct. 1, 1976. 
As the rent increase goes into 
effect July 1, money from the 
increase will be kept in a separate 
account. If the cooperative becomes 
a reality, the unexpended income 
will be available to the cooperative, 
Boyd said. 
Serious legal questions regarding 
the housing department's renting 
policy also surfaced. Lois Hill, ASUO 
representative on the Married 
Student Housing Council-speaking 
for herself, not the ASUO-c1aimed 
that unwed couples are illegally 
denied housing from the University 
Family Housing Department. 
Because state and federal laws 
forbid any discrimination based on 
marital status in renting, Hill said 
the University discriminates by 
renting family housing only to 
married students (with or without 
children) or to a single parent with 
children. Hill became concerned 
when the department refused to 
rent to a couple who had lived 
together for six years and had a 
four-year-old daughter. 
In an opinion released by the 
Department of Justice, Oregon 
Attorney General Lee Johnson said 
the act is intended to apply to 
government or public agencies 
acting as landlords. 
The definition of "dormitory" 
in Webster's New World Dictionary, 
College Edition, Johnson said, 
"does not apply to married 
student housing at the University of 
Oregon, which is in the nature of 
apartments with family living 
quarters, rather than sleeping rooms 
with a·common kitchen as usually 
associated with dorm itories." 
Johnson also cited a position 
paper from the University Housi ng 
Department pointing out, "The 
fact that the University now provides 
several varieties of housing with 
the element of choice still intact 
(which) seems to make the present 
policy 'reasonable', not 
,d iscrim inatory'." 
During the summer of 1975 work 
was done on the Amazon buildings' 
foundations, originally Army 
barracks during World War II, to 
meet current standards. Of the two 
projects, Amazon is the older and 
less expensive. 
Westmoreland consists of modern 
apartments and a recreation center. 
A main problem for Westmoreland 
residents is the three-mile distance 
from campus. 
• •raising rent 
Both housing units have 
representatives on a Tenants' Board 
which handles grievances and 
problems in conjunction with the 
University Housing Office. Each 
area also has an organization for 
women, the Dames' Club. The 
c1u b provides an opportu nity for 
interaction and organizes service 
projects. 
Amazon and Westmoreland each 
have cooperative nursery schools. 
Cheryl Eldridge, director of the 
Amazon schoo!, describes its 
facilities as "an accumulation of 15 
years." The school is housed in an 
end apartment and operates five 
days a week. Westmoreland's school 
has a paid teacher and operates 
three or four days per week with a 
maximum capacity of about 16 
children. 
Evelyn McCain, director of the 
Westmoreland school, describes its 
functions as "educational, 
including cooking, playing and 
music." Parents are required to 
work twice a month in addition to 
paying a monthly fee.

Greeks were especially active 
in the Standing in Line at Mac 
Court Club (SLMCC), and managed 
to nab much of the bleacher seating 
for Kamikaze clashes. Special 
activities of the club included 
entertainment provided by 
Superman, the Lone Ranger and his 
stick horse and Monkey Man prior 
to Pac-8 basketball games. 
Winter graduation of the 
legendary Jules Marine brought 
tears, laughter and a large party to 
the Stadium Club. But Happy Hour 
at Duffy's every Friday maintained 
its sardine-can atmosphere after 
Jules' departure, and the SAE's 
Friday at Four continued to thrive. 
The exhorbitant rate of candle­
passings brought surprise dips in 
the Millrace for those who did the 
hitching. Pre-initiation serenades 
were popular with fall pledges, as 
were those fun-filled moonlight

affairs known as raids. Greek Week 
and the Canoe Fete were the only 
campus traditions continued. 
Let it not be forgotten that Greeks 
celebrated the University 
Centennial. The patriotic green 
banners decorating University Street 
light posts were mysteriously 
borrowed for an evening, but were 
returned. 
Spring term brought bikini 
beauties to the sun porches and 
boxer boys to the roofs. Fraternity 
brothers became adept at cooling 
off sunburned sorority girls with 
water balloon sling-shots and 
water-fi lied fi re exti nguishers. 
Greek living continues to change 
at Oregon with emphasis on 
cooperative living-not just a 
roof over your head and food in 
your stomach.

The Dorm Life 
Students
 
"You have to be crazy to live in 
adorm!" 
Maybe so, but some 2,800 
University students appea r to be 
surviving the insanity of dormitory 
living. 
A housing department survey 
revealed most residents were 
satisfied with dorm life. But not 
everythi ng is rosy. 
Major gripes include: dorms offer 
a poor study environment; too 
noisy; bad food; lack of privacy; 
lack of freedom; density and room 
size. 
Of course, dormies did like: 
general convenience; social 
contacts; cost and food (some good, 
some bad). 
Coed dorms advocates lost 
another battle against H.P.Barnhart, 
housing director, yet won a small 
victory as Deutsches Haus, a 
German language dorm, was given 
a coed okay. 
30,0 - the dorm life 
y with 'insanity' of dormitory living
 
Dunn Hall of Hamilton Complex is 
the setti ng for the bit of Germany 
where no level of language 
proficiency is required. Karen 
Achberger, Haus organizer, hoped 
to find a house for future use seeing 
the dormitory atmosphere as a 
possible deterrent. 
Barnhart had to deal with other 
squabbles including dorm residents 
protesti ng the fi ri ng of resident 
assistant (RA) Craig Magwire, a 
hassle with precharging for 1976-77 
rooms before the State Board of 
Higher Education's approval. 
Student lobbying efforts 
triumphed in a June 7 decision by 
Gerald Bogen, vice president for 
Student Affairs, clearing four 
"predominantly upper-class" 
dormitories (Carson, Earl, University 
Inn and parts of Hamilton) for 
over··21 alcoholic beverage use. 
The plan (which dissolved the 
idea of one over-21 dorm) allows 
those under-21 students who 
reserved rooms in any of the four 
dorms to keep thei r choice, yet be 
prohibited from drinking in the 
room of over-21 students. The 
catch-22 is that over-21 students 
who live in under-21 dorms won't 
be allowed to drink in their rooms. 
Barnhart had refused an earlier 
attempt to create the over-21 
dorm, but was overruled by Bogen. 
Bogen cited a provision of the 
Student Conduct Code allowing the 
University President to designate 
places on campus where alcoholic 
beverages may be consumed. 
On a smaller scope the individual 
complexes were involved in several 
activities-besides raids, keggers 
and midnight trips to McDonald's. 
Bean Complex, whose residents 
are affectionately known as 
"Beanies," revived the complex 
newsletter, The Bean Bag. Beanies 
were active in intramural sports 
and participated in a Swing 
Workshop. 
Carson sponsored a dance 
marathon benefitting Muscular 
Dystrophy. Social funds were used 
to buy Christmas di nners for needy 
families. 
Halloween was a bit more special 
for children from the Children's 
Hospital and the Pearl S. Buck 
Center with Hamilton Complex's 
pumpkin-carving party. The 
jack-o-Ianterns were taken to Sacred 
Heart Hospital. 
Earl residents worked with the 
Carson dance marathon and the 
Christmas dance. 
A paper recycling center was the 
successful effort of Adam~ Hall 
residents in Walton Complex. 
WaltQn dormies instigated several 
social activities including an ice 
cream sundae night and a barn 
dance. 
The University Inn, formerly the 
privately-owned College Inn, made 
a somewhat smooth transition to 
University rules, regulations and 
renovation. For former residents, 
student managers and RAs were an 
inposition to their prior freedom. 
Rock throwing incidents with a 
neighboring fraternity sparked some 
controversy, and more rock 
throwing. 
So maybe they are crazy. Dorm 
residents enjoy a rare sense of group 
living, self-contained governance, 
sharing and discovering-school, 
new friends, hangovers, multiple­
choice tests, frisbees and more. 
Perhaps it takes a bit more 
tolerance, as well as a touch of the 
crazies. Dorms are not for everyone.

spring Sunfest. Far left: Windows are a
 
convenient place to study if it's sunny.

is popular with dorm residents.

Below: Parr Tower, a co-op residence for 
women, offers a good alternative to 
dormitory or soroity living. Right: Campbell 
Club is the only co-ed co-op of the four 
serving students. 
The Co-op Life 
Dorms 
lilt's a good alternative if you 
don't want to live in a dorm, don't 
have the money for an apartment 
and aren't ready for greek life," says 
Sherrie Glenn, a resident of 
University House, 791 E. 15th St. 
Other co-op dwellers agree, 
listing such advantages as good 
food,·few restrictions and the 
feeling of closeness and unity within 
each house. 
There are four co-ops at the 
University, each run in basically the 
same manner..AII are self-governing. 
House officers are elected at the 
beginning of the year, and regular 
meetings are held to make decisions 
concerning house affairs. 
Each of the four co-ops cater to 
different types of people. Campbell 
Club is the only co-ed house, Parr 
Tower and University House are 
strictly for women and Philadelphia 
House is for Christian men. 
Each resident must do a certai n 
number of household duties 
ranging from vacuuming to 
dishwashing to yard work. These 
346 - the co-op life 
I' compared to family-style liviog of co-ops
 
jobs take only two to three hours 
per week, and are one of the 
reasons why cooperative living is so 
inexpensive. 
And inexpensive it is. Most 
residents list the low prices as one 
of the prime considerations for 
trying cooperative living. 
"It's the cheapest on campus," 
says Marion Rutledge, also a 
University House resident. Costs 
average around $900 a year, 
considerably lower than most other 
housing options. 
Another aspect of cooperative 
living rating high on the occupant's 
list of advantages is the relative lack 
of restrictions. Residents are fairly 
free to do as they wish, since they 
make the rules. 
"People are free to live the way 
they want to," says Ed Skipper of 
Campbell Club, 1670 Alder St. 
"There aren't any unreasonable 
restrictions." 
Co-ops also sponsor social 
activities, sometimes with another 
house, sometimes alone. Dinners, 
Christmas decorating parties and 
keggers are just some of the 
activities. All four co-ops combined 
for a Halloween party fall term. 
The number of residents in each 
house averages arou nd 40. For many 
inhabitants the feeling of unity, 
because of the small number of 
people, is the best aspect of all. 
"It's smaller and a lot closer," 
says Tai Lee, another Campbell Club 
resident. "It's more family style 
rather than the rigid, structured 
type of living in the dorms." 
Terry Styner of Parr Tower, 1648 
Alder St., agrees. "I lived in the 
dorms," she says. "Compared to 
there they're like a hotel. This is 
our home." 
Disadvantages are few. While 
some of the residents rave about the 
food, others complain but admit it's 
better than dorm cuisine. Several 
co-ops have sleeping porches, but 
most house dwellers aren't too 
happy with this arrangement. 
For someone who likes living 
around a lot of people, however, 
cooperative living offers students 
many benefits.

September
 
Enrollment, expected to be lower 
this year, remained the same: 16,500 
students signed up for fall classes, 
some of which were stumped for a 
place to park their waterbeds and 
macrame wall hangings. The fact 
that Budweiser won the beer prefer­
ence poll taken during fall registra­
tion was taken to heart by students, 
many commuting from such glam­
orous abodes as tepees, the YMCA, 
Armitage Park and the visitors' park­
ing lot because of the campus hous­
ing shortage. 
Patty Hearst, who hadn't been 
able to park anywhere for fear of 
capture, was seized in a San Francis­
co house and Bill and Emily Harris, 
also of the Symbionese Liberation 
Army (SLA), were caught by the FBI, 
ending the longest and most bizarre 
manhunts in American history. 
Hot sunny days greeted students 
returning to campus for I-haven't­
seen-you-for-ages-what have-you­
been-up-to get-togethers. 
New Student week featured a 
street faire, a Wampeter (dessert in 
a faculty member's home) and aca­
demic advising for students. 
Commonwealth Hall became 
James Gilbert Hall and Men's PE was 
officially renamed Arthur Esslinger 
Hall, although the old titles re­
mained a part of student vocabulary. 
Other changes included the en­
largement of the locker rooms and 
the rejuvenation of Straub Hall. 
A new nonmatriculation program 
allowed members of the community 
to take classes without formally 
enrolling at the University. Only 750 
of Eugene's 90,000 participated in 
the program fall term, registering 
after full-time students. 
And a middle aged mother, Sara 
Jane Moore, 45, shot at President 
Ford when he was in San Francisco. 
A disabled Marine veteran had 
knocked the weapon from Ms. 
Moore's hand before she could fire 
a second shot.

Controversy was the name of the 
game. Minority students fought 
Pres. Boyd's funding program. Fac­
ulty clashed with students over 
collective bargaining. True-blue 
Duck fans demanded that students 
own Mac Court. As a result of the 
annual seating alloca'tion hassle for 
Kamikaze clashes, the Incidental 
Fee Committee voted for reserved 
seating, much to the fraternities' 
chagrin. Through the lottery for 
basketball passes, 4,000 lucky stu­
dents earned the right to buy a 
ticket for the meager price of $21.50, 
a real bargain in view of the fact that 
Eager Beavers can attend any OSU 
athletic event gratis. 
New York City couldn't have 
given away seats as it tottered on the 
brink of financial collapse in the 
middle of the month. 
\.. 
The summer's successful EMU 
Beer-Gardens flowed again in the 
courtyard Friday afternoons. The 
Food-Op gained a delivery truck to 
bring bread, eggs and dairy products 
right to the back doors of campus 
living organizations. 
The cost of transportation de­
creased with the return of the skate­
board, but Ma Bell took care of the 
profits by charging 20 <t for every 
directory assistance call. 
Pres. Ford would have been much 
happier had his $500,000 car been 
rammed by a skatebord rather than 
James Salamite's mother's car. Ford's 
food stamp p'lan disqualified 17 per 
cent of those formerly eligible and 
life looked pretty grim, except to 
Cincinnati fans who's Reds beat the 
Boston Red Sox in the World Series.

Freshmen shuddered at the 
thought of spending Christmas 
vacation in Eugene. Hawaiian 
students could either hitchhike 
or swim home.Greyhoundand 
Amtrak refused to answer their 
phones. A perpetual busy sig­
nal came from Hughes Airwest. 
"Sorry, we're all booked up," a 
recorded voice droaned. 
"Have you tried the Air 
Force?" And all because of the 
United Airlines machinists' 
strike, which forced United to 
cancel all flights through Dec. 
24. 
Tension in Boston, Mass., 
brought about fights between 
black and white pupils inside 
South Boston High less than 24 
hours after a federal judge 
took over administration of the 
school, saying black pupils had 
been denied a peaceful, de­
segregated education. Within 
hours the NAACP office was 
firebombed. 
But with the bad news comes 
the good: the Drug Abuse 
Council reported that the use 
of marijuana had not increased 
during the last year under leni­
ent state laws. 
The ASUO succeeded in 
publishing its course evalua­
tion booklet before finals were 
over and students scattered 
across the country to celebrate 
religious, scholastic and alco­
holic holidays. 
In keeping with the holiday 
spirit, 12 nations, including the 
United States and Israel, 
walked out from a United Na­
tions Educational, Scientific 
and Cultural Organization 
meeting that had endorsed a 
u.N. resolution equating Zion­
ism with racism. 
december 1975 - 357 
Patriotic yellow and green 
banners hanging from light­
posts on University and 13th 
streets announced the .coming 
University Centennial, over­
shadowing the nation's Bicen­
tennial on campus. $574 worth 
of the $2,000 centennial ban­
ners were taken, setting the 
mood for the celebration. It 
was rumored that some ingeni­
ous students found that the 
flags could be used for wall­
hangings, bedspreads and 
curtains. 
Speaking of curtains, that 
queen of British mystery writ­
ers, Agatha Christie, 85, died 
at her home in Wallingford, 55 
miles west of London. In her 
January
 
last book to be released, "Cur­
tain," (now on the bestseller 
lisO, she kills off Hercule 
Poirot, the famed detective of 
her novels. Her books have 
been translated into at least 103 
languages, 16 more than 
Shakespeare's works. She was 
the creator of the mous­
tachioed Belgian detective 
Poi rot, whose most famous 
case was "Murder on the Ori­
ent Express," made into a hit 
film last year. 
And Chou En-lai, China's 
premier since the communist 
victory in 1949 and one of the 
outstanding statesmen of the 
century, died this month at age 
78. 
"\ 
The inauguration of William 
Boyd as the University's 12th 
president kicked off the cen­
tennial activities while 50 peo­
ple demonstrated outside, as­
sailing tuition hikes, budget 
cutbacks and the University's 
use of Teamster lettuce. Ten 
people, including three stu­
dents, were arrested as a result 
of the riotous activity; charges 
were later reduced and/or 
dropped. 
The Child Care and Devel­
opment Center was tempo­
rarily bailed out of its budget 
problems as a result of a three­
way compromise among the 
EMU, the Incidental Fee Com­
mittee and the CCDC.

A tuition increase of 12 per cent for 
1977, twice the national average, an­
gered students. Pres. Boyd said a "flat 
no" to faculty course evaluation dis­
closure. In an attempt to control bas­
ketball crowds, two more doors on the 
northeast side of Mac Court were 
opened before games. The aura of a 
rip-off surrounding Ken Kesey became 
an issue when his book, One Flew 
Over the Cockoo's Nest, was made 
into a movie and he felt he was rooked 
out of his "fair share" of the cash. 
Rape remained a problem on cam­
pus. The Lane County Rape Team initi­
ated a whistle STOP campaign: "blow 
the whistle on the rapist." 
ESCAPE's Dance Marathon and the 
Duck's basketball victory over UCLA 
were great cures for middle-of-the­
term-blahs, prevalent among Oregon 
students after who-knows-how-many­
days-without sun. 
It was a month of other landmarks 
as well. Ernesto Miranda, whose name 
was on a landmark court decision re­
quiring police to inform defendants of 
their rights, was stabbed to death in a 
fight over a card game in a bar, police 
said. The Super Sonic Transport (SST) 
airplane was given the nod to land at 
two U.S. airports over protest of en­
vironmentalists, and earthquakes 
rocked Guatemala City. The/quakes, of 
major proportions, inflicted heavy 
damage in the city and strong tremors 
rocked Salvador and Honduras. 
Patricia Hearst took the Fifth 
Amendment 21 times in court, refusing 
to answer questions about the missing 
year in her underground life on 
grounds it might incriminate her in 
another bank robbery. 
february 1976 - 359 
.. March
 
The vocal minority made it­
self heard. Students protested 
the firing of a Ganoe dormi­
tory resident assista nt just prior 
to finals by demonstrating in 
front of Johnson Hall along 
with the Revolutionary Stu­
dent Brigade (RSB), who 
marched for lower tuition. The 
RSB also came signed to "get 
the rich off our backs," sched­
uling a Fourth of July demon­
stration in Philadelphia during 
the Bicentennial celebration. 
"Save the whales" became a 
popular cause. The Fifth Street 
Public Market was born, cater­
ing to the middle class rather 
than the counter-culture 
crowd of Saturday Market. 
An academic investigation 
found that the B grade was re­
placing the C as the average 
grade, resulting from the pass/ 
no pass grading option. After a 
year-long battle, the Faculty 
Senate voted to reinstate the 0 
grade. And as long as student 
ownership of Mac Court was 
the big thing, the ASUO at­
tempted to claim possession of 
the EMU. 
Patty Hearst was convicted 
on bank robbery charges and 
was arraigned on 11 felony 
charges of kidnapping, rob­
bery and assault. Meanwhile, 
the film "One Flew Over the 
Cuckoo's Nest"; filmed in Ore­
gon State Hospital, topped all 
Academy Award nominations, 
and was the second movie in 
the film industry's history to 
win all of the major awards.

For years, rare finds were "as 
queer as a two dollar bill." But 
no longer, after the bill made 
its debut for the first time in a 
decade April 73. Banks report­
ed the new money was an 
instant success. Labor disputes 
blossomed during the spring 
and students started stocking 
their shelves with "Bud" when 
a strike was called against the 
breweries. 
"All the President's Men" 
was the movie to see, and stu­
dents began digging up their 
own hot stories. For instance, 
the Emerald reported that 
$787 was spent by the Student 
Conduct Court for photo­
graphic coverage of disrup­
tive activities on campus. 
Billionaire Howard Hughes' 
death started a rash of pur­
ported wills, one paying a 25 
cent loan with a $156 million 
dollar bequest. 
Students not involved in 
campaigns for ASUO offices 
worried about herbicides or 
the extradition of Dennis 
Banks, co-founder of the 
American Indian Movement 
(AIM), who spoke on campus. 
The first private enterprise on 
a University campus opened in 
the EMU: Baskin-Robbins and 
all 31 ice cream flavors. Alcohol 
was approved for dorms popu­
lated predominantly by over 
21-ers. 
Doctors said they would not 
appeal the "right to die" case 
involving Karen Anne Quinlan. 
The court appointed Joseph 
Quinlan legal guardian for his 
22-year-old daughter, giving 
him the right to order an end 
to medical treatment which has 
kept the comatose young 
woman alive for nearly a year 
in an irreversible coma. 
A student on the 7th floor of 
the University Inn reported a 
"shakey feeling" when a rare 
earthquake rattled The Dalles 
in the north-central Oregon 
area. The quake reached 4.8 
on the Richter scale.

Politics city. The Mock Democratic 
Convention nomina(ed Hubert 
Humphrey for US. President. In 
real world politics, Betty Ford's 
arrival in Eugene was honored with 
a special luncheon of EMU cuisine 
which became the "First Lady's 
Special" at the delicatessen: ham 
sandwich ala potato salad and Ronnie 
Lee. 
Frank Church and jerry Brown, 
campus favorites, spoke to enthusi­
astic campus crowds. Ronald Reagan 
and jimmy Carter also made Eugene 
appearances on the campaign trail. 
When it came down to voting in 
the Oregon primary, Church led all 
delegates followed by Carter and 
Brown. Later, Gov. Brown's delegate 
count increased and it looked like 
the California man was going to be 
second only to the Idaho senator. 
The ASUO's new mail-out ballot 
election was the first such kind

in the nation. Only minor campaign 
violations, such as the authorization 
of placement of a campaign flyer on 
the doorknob of a private residence, 
were cited. A new slant on vote­
getting was presented by Izzy Whet­
stine: "Somebody's got to be ASUO 
President; why not me?" jan Oliver, 
a 23-year-old black and mother of 
three children, eventually won the 
election, receiving 67 per cent of all 
votes cast. 
The Hughes estate's ten or so pur­
ported wills were still being fought 
out. Meanwhile the service station 
operator who was named a beni­
ficiary in one of the wills was in 
hiding after an emotional collapse. 
Mary Straub Stafford, who helped 
organize the first sorority at the 
University during a life of dedication 
to the University, died at age 94. 
During National Farmworkers' 
Week, students rallied against Gallo 
and Carlo Rossi "scab" wines. Tasty, 
eh? Greek Week concentrated more 
on beer than wine. Parents' Week­
end was highlighted by the annual 
Canoe Fete on the Millrace. Music 
lovers had a hayday with the Willa­
mette Valley Folk Festival and the 
Sunfest. The Frisbee Marathon 
raised money for White Bird Clinic 
and set a record of 840 hours for the 
longest frisbee flinging session. 
The Senate fell three votes short 
of overriding Pres. Ford's veto of a 
bill that would supply $125 million 
to help states meet new federal 
standards for child day care centers, 
while the government had planned 
to revoke food stamp coupons from 
an estimated 1.66 million families. 
But a federal judge temporarily 
blocked the cut in the program after 
learning 10.8 million Americans 
stood to suffer from the cut.

While Ken Kesey's first Poetic 
Hoohaw and Spring Trip occurred at 
the University, a new world record 
for Frisbee-flinging was set. The 
Greater Frisbee Marathon "out­
flung" the record of 720 hours by 
120 hours. The second Pre Classic 
and the Track & Field Olympic 
Trials kept the world's best track fans 
busy at Hayward Field. 
Finishing exams, seniors pre­
pared to graduate, while everyone 
else was treking homeward to relax, 
celebrate the nation's 200th birthday 
and work on tans before coming 
back in the fall. 
Scandals were vogue. The House 
Ethics Committee decided to pro­
ceed immediately with a full in­
vestigation of the Wayne Hays pay­
roll sex scandal. Elizabeth Ray 
claimed Hays put her on the staff to 
his House Administration Committee 
to be his mistress. Hays, 65, denied 
that she was hired to provide him 
with sex. A rash of other such claims 
stained several prominent Wash­
ington figures. 
Other things came tumbling 
down. A corner of a new earth-fill 
dam filled .nearly to capacity crum­
bled in Idaho Falls, spreading a 
destructive wall of water over 300 
square miles in the Upper Snake 
River Valley and forcing about 30,000 
persons from their homes. The 
structure was built for irrigation, 
power and flood control purposes. 
j. Paul Getty, 83, American oil mag­
nate and one of the world's richest 
men, died at his mansion in England.

Editor's Note------------­
After having written millions of 
words over the last 12 months, it 
seems peculiar that I should be at a 
loss for them now. Perhaps I could 
say this was the most difficult 
challenge I have undertaken so far. 
Or that after all the blood, sweat 
and tears that went into this book, I 
received only the satisfaction of a 
job well done. 
I could not have finished this 
book without the help of jerril 
Nilson, who devoted herself to 
quality copywriting even under 
tremendous deadline pressure; 
without Marilee Lupton's diligent 
work on the academics section we 
would be lost; without Alex Lam 
who printed and developed all the 
film that was left unfinished at the 
end of june, and to Kathy Avanzino, 
to whom I must apologize for not 
having the book finished before she 
returned from her trip, and spent 
her free hours helping us finish the 
book. Many thanks to Katie Brame, 
who understood me throughout 
this venture and managed to keep 
me sane. Although her name may 
not appear anywhere else in this 
book, she spent countless hours 
with me discussing yearbook, 
stuffing and coding 12,000 
envelopes and mailing yearbooks, 
as well as typing copy and an 
assortment of other thankless jobs. 
Without the loyal support and 
dedication of all these people, the 
book would still not be finished. 
I would like to thank my brother, 
366 - editor's note 
Mark Melton, for spending a week­
and-a-half writing Oregon sports 
copy for our book. He is a senior in 
English at the University of 
California, Berkeley. His dedication 
to the English language is almost as 
profound as mine. 
Roy Paul Nelson, publication and 
advertising design professor, was a 
source of inspiration for many of the 
ideas which appear in this book. His 
advice was always helpful. Thanks 
also to Ken Metzler, who took an 
interest in the Oregana and who 
taught a fantastic basic interviewing 
skills class. 
We couldn't have done this 
without a great yearbook 
representative, Steven Harrington, 
who always seemed to show up 
when we needed him, and Charlie 
Galvani, who patiently took care of 
all our needs, and finally, we 
couldn't have done it without a 
great yearbook company. 
Thanks to Mary Hartman for her 
interest and great advice: it was 
most helpful. I just have one 
question: is the bet still on? 
Thanks are also extended to Hope 
Pressman, Nuriel jackson, Adell 
McMillan and to Allen, our 
custodian, who seems to know what 
to leave on the floor and what to 
clean up. Many thanks to the people 
at the Oregon Daily Emerald who 
were so cooperative when we 
needed their help. And thanks to 
Kate in production and Francine 
for all the research materials. 
I hope that no future editor will 
have to sleep in the office over the 
weekends during summer to keep it 
open for staff members. Our office 
is definitely in need of a new couch! 
Thanks also to the night managers 
who let us stay past closing hours to 
work on the book in the student 
union. 
There are many other people too 
numerous to mention here, but you 
know who you are, and I thank you 
for your assistance. 
I hope you enjoy this book as 
much as we did trying to put it 
together for you. 
I wish Jerril the best of success as 
next year's editor and to all the rest 
of the gang. I'm looking forward to 
the ·1977 edition of the Oregana.
