At the Legislature:
Dollars Donated
To Combat LSD
SALEM (AP)—A joint legis -
lative Ways and Means Health
Subcommittee has authorized $77,
442 for preaching the hazards
of LSD and other hallucinatory
drugs.
The request will go later this
week to the full committee when
it considers adoption of the Men
tal Health Division budget.
Representative Joe B. Rich
ards (R-Eugene) said the new
Oregon drug education program
is necessary because “Timothy
Leary ana others have tried to
make these drugs attractive.”
Lear/, former Harvard profes
sor, has advocated the use of
LSD and urged students to “turn
on, tune in, ar.d drop out.” He
spoke at the University earlier
this term.
If the budget item is adopted,
Oregon will become one of the
first states to have a statewide
drug education program that will
concentrate on the colleges.

Some of the squares have been
removed from Oregon ballots.
That doesn't refer to candi

The Senate passed a bill Mon
day that eliminates the use of
squares in front of the blank lines
on ballots and allows voters to
write in a name without making
a check.

Representative Richard L. Ken
nedy (D-Eugene) has been try
ing for four years to repeal Fran
ces E. Willard Day, the fourth
Friday in October.
He made another try Monday.
Kennedy wants to repeal the
law which requires public
schools to commemorate Frances
E. Willard, a 19th century tern
perance leader, by talking about
the evils of drink.
Kennedy says the schools ig
nore the law.
When he first introduced the
bill four years ago, State Depart- j
ment of Education officials said
they didn’t know there was such
a law.

fee that pays for athletics, the Student Union, and the Health
Service. ......
Representative Rod McKenzie (R-Sixes) raises a different ob
jection. He says he has received letters from constituents with
students at Southern Oregon College objecting to raising the fees
there to the level equal to that of the University, Oregon State,
and Portland State.
Tuition at SOC and the other two regional colleges will be
raised to the same level by fall of 1970 under the plan adopted
by the Board of Higher Education. At present they pay S12 a
term less. i
‘Higher education is more of a privilege than an absolute right,
McKenzie siad. “It tends to make people more responsible when
they have to pay something I don’t think they should take away
all tuition.”
Like Potts, McKenzie doesn’t think tuition keeps students out
of state-supported institutions of higher education. ‘With scholar
ships and grants, I think anybody who wants to go to school bad
enough can,” he says.
Representative Kennedy, however, maintains that it does keep
people out of college.
He also says there's enough money available for higher educa
tion without the increase He thinks the board jumped just be
cause Governor McCall snapped his fingers and that the Legisla
ture ought to have the final say on tuition.
Most legislators say they’re opposed to his idea, however.
Speaker Montgomery says it would make the Legislature “a
90-member board of higher education.”
Senate President Potts says, “If we start getting into that kind
of thing, we’ll be doing nothing else but education I think it
should be left to the board.”
Kennedy says the Legislature is more sensitive to political
pressures and thus might be less likely to raise tuition.
But several legislators oppose the idea for the same reason:
the Legislature’s political sensitivity. “It should be left to the
board. They’re more removed from politics,” McKenzie says.
“If you get involved in one part of higher education, like tui
tion, you’ll step into others,” says Representative Hugh Me
Gilvra (R-Forest Grove).
McGilvra, a member of the Ways and Means Committee, prob
ably summed up the overall legislative view of tuition when he
commented:
“You have to reconcile the ideal with the practical.”
