Dog control policy effective; student cooperation cited By KEN OLSON and SHAN PYNES of the Emerald The new University policy on dog control begun last Monday seems to be working ef fectively. The policy requires that dogs on campus must be accompanied by their owners, and kept on a leash. Dogs are not allowed in classrooms. Capt. Oakley Glenn, head of Campus Security, and Lane County Deputy Sheriff Jim Dougan, who patrols the campus, are pleased with student cooperation. Dougan, who picks up the dogs, has en countered only one case of hassling by students and that incident was verbal and minor. “The dog was resisting, fighting his choke chain and making a commotion which at tracted spectators,” Glenn said. The students were shouting such things as ‘I hope the dog eats you up.’ ” Glen feels students have differing opinions about enforcement of the new dog control measures. “Some say the dogs ought to be able to run freely. There’s a freedom facto*’some students are concerned about.” “On the other side some students are tired of putting up with the odors of dogs and their wastes,” Glenn said. Nine dogs were picked up or the owners given citations during the first three days of enforcement last week. In four cases the owners retrieved their dogs from Dougan and were given $11.00 citations Three dogs were turned over to the Lane Humane Society, where the owner pays a basic fee of $10.00 to reclaim his dog, phis $2.00 per day for board of the animal. Glen said the dog control rule was initiated by student concern. Prior to the new dog control measure “dogs were often running around in packs of 16 or 18, and one time there were close to 40 dogs in one pack on the campus,” Glenn said. Forty-six dog bites were reported last year and in 14 of those cases students had to take the series of painful, abdominal anti rabies shots, Glenn said. This year “there have been 16 dog bites, five of them from the same dog.” Although much of the impetus for form ming a dog control measure came from students, some pressure also came from the faculty and University employes. “Janitors didn’t feel it was part of their job descriptions to clean up dog wastes in classrooms and after a while they simply refused to do it. I can’t say I blame them,” Glenn said. Glenn said a student committee is being formed to determine alternatives for students who feel they must bring their dogs to cam pus. One idea under consideration is a “Dog Care Center” manned by volunteers, where a student could leave his dog during classes. Living I with a beast?

The recent devaluation ot the American Dollar has automatically decreased your foreign import purchasing power by 10 per cent. If you have been contemplating the purchase of a new stereo system, this affects you directly and almost im mediately. Only stereo speakers are manufactured by top quality domestic firms, meaning virtually all of the other components must be imported. But there is still a time lag you can cash in on! If you had purchased $1000 worth of, say, British pounds, the day before the devaluation, and then sold them back the day after, you would have received $1100 for your trouble. Didn't do it, huh? Well, don't start kicking yourself yet. In effect, you can do the same thing by purchasing a new stereo system from Mac's Hi Fi, 191 E. Broadway-because we did have the foresight to stock up on as much imported equipment as we could before the devaluation. And now we can pass on the savings to you. But hurry!
