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.

Faculty group attacks
forced budget cuts
A second statement attacking the forced budget cuts in the State
System of Higher Education has been released by a faculty group.
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.”
