Bicycle Committee meets tonight
The Eugene Bicycle Committee will hold a public meeting and
forum at 8 p.m. tonight in 107 Lawrence.
The committee, composed equally of members of City of Eugene
staff and lay citizens, was established by the Mayor to advise city
government in matters concerning the convenience and safety of
bicyclists.
Tonight’s agenda will include a summary of progress thus far,
including bike routes already established and proposed. There will
also be a description of the bicycle program at Davis, Calif., and the
report of an independent research project studying campus bicycle
traffic.
The public is invited to attend and join the discussions.
Lawsuit settled out of court
A $5,500 lawsuit filed by a University security officer who claimed
he was struck by a car while trying to arrest a nude actor last year has
been settled out of court.
Winfred Smith had filed the suit against Drive Productions Inc.
and J Stephen Blauner, producer of the movie “Drive, He Said,”
which was filmed in Eugene during the spring of 1970. The film is in
current release, but has not yet shown in Eugene.
Terms of the out-of-court settlement weren’t announced.
Still pending in court in Los Angeles is a $525,000 suit filed by the
University itself against Drive Productions Inc. The University
alleges that the company violated the terms of the contract which
gave it right to use the campus as background. University officials say
the contract stipulated that there would be no nude scenes or drug use
shown in the picture.

Historian
says others
are elitist
Elite groups are favored over
“inarticulate” groups in our
nation’s early history, according
to Jesse Lemisch, a radical
historian from Roosevelt
University, Chicago.
Lemisch stressed the need for a
fresh approach to history Friday
in his speech, “The Great White
Men or the Inarticulate Masses?
How to Look at the American
Revolution from the Bottom Up.”
Lemisch said people need to
know more about Blacks, women
and lower class Whites (the
inarticulate) and that more in
formation on these subjects can
help answer questions about
present issues.
According to Lemisch, the way
to find out what really happened
at My Lai or Attica is not to read
an official report but to ask a
survivor. He said the trend in
today’s history is to put emphasis
on the records of prominent
historidal figures rather than to
direct any effort at uncovering
information about “inarticulate”
people.
Lemisch called the National
Historical Publications Com
mission, (NHPC), whose job is
approving and promoting
historical research, “a relic of
the 1950’s” and the enemy of
archivist and historians. He said
the many conservative
politicians who serve on the NH
PC are equally conservative in
their attitude toward radical
historical research.
