Fate of Cross Nearly Decided The future of the 51-foot con crete cross atop Skinner Butte now rests with Lone County Cir cuit Judge William Fort. The Anal legal step of the 17 - month old case was taken Wed nesday with the filing of a "reply” brief by the 10 plaintiffs. Following the conclusion of the six • day trial of the case in August, Judge Fort told the law yers for the plaintiffs and the de fendants—the City of Eugene and four private firms—to file briefs arguing their respective positions. The judge at that time told the lawyers he was particularly inter ested in the question of "who owns the cross.” The plaintiffs contended the city owned the cross by "accept ance of it as a gift" and "by vir tue of it being affixed to city - owned property.” CQT Application Deadline Today Male student- wishing to take the Selective Service College Qualification test must have their applications postmarked by midnight today.

The man, John Ailtucker,‘ owner of Eu gene Sand & Gravel Co., says the city owns the cross because he gave it to the city as a gift. Another set of defendants said since everybody denied owner ship, the cross was “abandoned property.” The plaintiffs claim “evidence shows that the Common Coun cil of the City of Eugene wants to have this cross in Skinner Butte Park.” The plaintiffs also claim ed there is no credence evident for “abandoned property” theory. Now the question goes to Judge Fort for decision. The judge also will have to decide the other is sues raised during the case — the question of whether the pres ence of the cross on city property violates the U S. Constitution and the constitution of the State of Oregon. UN Set As Panel Discussion Topic “If Not the U.N.—What?” will be the topic of a panel discussion at 8 p.m. Sunday at Harris Hall.

VISTA Discussed At YD Meeting Polilical knowledge and experi ence are particularly useful to VISTA volunteers, according to Vinette Jones, a national VISTA worker, who spoke to the Young Democrats Thursday. One of the problems which VISTA volunteers combat is indifference on the part of existing power structures. The volunteer who has no previous experience with political organi zation is at a disadvantage in try ing to deal with power structures. Vinette Jones also cited the ad vantages which VISTA work of fered to the student who intends to make a career in social work. Some universities offer credit for VISTA work; others use it as a basis for awarding scholarships, she said. The experience is also helpful to those who have not decided what career to follow but are interested in working with people. Larry Beathe, president of the YD’s, concluded the meeting with announcements. Anyone interest ed in making money for the club or in being a committee chair man should contact Beathe at 345-6704.
