Supper club lease extended The Laurelwood Supper Club, location of the KZEL show “Art Pearl vs. The World” and doomed by the city since last winter, has been given a stay of execution until June 11 of this year. At Monday night’s City Council meeting, council members granted an extension of 60 days to Dorothy Johnson, proprietor of the Laurelwood Supper Club, 2700 Columbia St., before she must vacate the premises. Ms. Johnson’s lease from the city expired during the summer of 1971. When the original lease ran out, the council recommended to Ms. Johnson, who has leased the club for six years, that she develop a set of stan dards to make the club compatible with the residential neighborhood. After further con sideration of the club’s late closing hours and the many complaints of late night noises coming from the club, the council later gave her 90 days to move out. That extension ended Monday. Ms. Johnson’s attorney, Hale Thompson, requested an additional 90-day extension to allow his client to liquidate her debts and to give her enough time to get a transfer of her liquor license to another building, possibly in Springfield. After debate and testimony from citizens, both pro and con, the council compromised and gave Ms. Johnson an extra 60 days with the hope that she make arrangements to curtail the noise and com motion that aroused her neighbors to dissent originally. City Manager Hugh McKinley had remarked at an earlier meeting that it hoped to find an operation to go into the Laurelwood building which will be compatible with the golf course facility.

The Interinstitutional Faculty Senate (IFS) unanimously adopted a resolution at a meeting held recently in Eugene which charged the cuts have “forced unwise educational decisions." Their statement also warned against the use of "existing retrenched and weakened circumstances" in future budget planning. Wednesday, the University faculty passed an AAUP-AFT spon sored resolution stating that “a rational reordering of priorities which would enjoy the confidence of the faculty has not been possible in the time allowed.” The resolution also asked for a statewide reordering of educational priorities and emergency reinstatement of funds cut. The IFS resolution also requests State System Chancellor Roy Lieuallen to begin a "prompt and adequate study” of priorities within the state system” and that "faculty and student perspectives be in cluded as basic parts of such a study.” Lieuallen was unavailable for comment on the resolution Wed nesday, but state system Vice Chancellor for Administration Freeman Holmer said without the IFS identifying “specific unwise educational decisions, it’s rather hard to react in any specific way.” Summer In Europe Charter flights to London, Amsterdam and Frankfurt ROUUD TRIP IF May 28 to July 11, to Frankfurt June 11 to Aug. 29, to Amsterdam June 13 to Sept. 15, to London June 15 to Aug. 21, to London June 30 to Aug. 1, to Frankfurt July 11 to July 26, to Amsterdam July 24 to Sept, 20, to London July 29 to Sept. 18, to Frankfurt $249 289 289 279 269 239 259 275 ONE WAY ■r ” I July 9, Seattle to London July 25, Seattle to Amsterdam Aug. 8, Seattle to Frankfurt Aug. 13, Seattle to London Aug. 28, Seattle to London ,Sept. 2, Seattle to London $160 170 170 150 145 125, More dates are available.
