Animals...
He pants out that not oily dogs
fall under Dog Control, but other
animals as well. McVicker says
the Society is trying to function as
a public health program. By
clearing the community’s streets
of dead animals and by taking
others in, he says proper disease
control with the animals is
promoted. “Communicable
diseases and sickness from
animals to humans is very
prevalent,” says McVicker.
The big requirement now is
that people in Lane County obey
the recent leash law for dogs and
keep their dogs from running at
large. McVicker says. If the
people comply with the society’s
wish, “there will be fewer dogs
for us to put to sleep and destroy
out here at the Humane Society .”
He continues that people must
prevent their pets from breeding
with others nearby to keep strays
and the animal population at a
minimum.
McVicker says he is en
couraged by the large response
from University students with the
Humane Society’s low-cost spay
program. According to the
Executive Director, the students
have changed their attitude from
several years ago about the idea

to breed so widely.
McVicker said because of the
spay program, the Humane
Society handled fewer cats in
June this year, for example. June
is the biggest month for cat
receiving at the Humane Society,
and McVicker said there were 300
less received this year than last.
He attributes this to the spay
program.
McVicker feels strongly about
keeping the community’s animal
population on a set level. The
public, he feels, must obey the
leash law and prevent further
animal breeding. Otherwise, the
unhappy job of destroying the
influx of animals at the Humane
Society now will remain a daily
routine.

kind of person I will appoint,”
McCall quickly responded.
“It will be based on something
you feel when you look at
them... how they would associate
to members of the Board, the
problems of taxpayers. Not that
they should be patseys, but they
must represent a broader con
stituency than just students.
“I think we are going to see
wonderful young people and it is
going to be hard to choose from
them.” the Governor continued
“There is no question at all that
they are going to contribute to the
breadth and wisdom of the
Board.”
Schmidt continued, “I don’t
t hink we will be looking for just a
GPA or for the campus hot shot.”
And Schmidt and McCall
agreed that women will have a
good chance of being selected.
“Even though it is an artificial
quota, we ought to have one
women and one man,” the
Governor said. “That is common
sense. Or...I suppose that if there
were two outstanding women, we
would appoint two women. I don’t
think we would dare appoint two
men."
The Governor said that party
affiliation "will not be very high
on the list of qualifications. In
fact,” he smiled, “I’d really
rather not know it.”
Schmidt noted “another
positive result of the bill.” He
said, “We are always looking for
talent in many areas (to serve
on other boards and com
missions)” and observed that
many of the students interviewed
for the positions on the Board
might instead be appointed to
other policy-making and advisory
bodies like the state bicycle
advisery committee and a group
concerned about child care.
Some concern has also been
expressed by student leaders that
only students currently attending
summer session would qualify,
under the bill, as student ap
pointees to the Board.
But McCall disagreed with this
interpretation saying he is sure
the Attorney General would rule
that students attending one of
the schools in the state system of
higher education during the
winter would also qualify.
He said since “student leaders
know which student leaders are
coming back to school” he hopes
the selection process can begin
soon and be completed quickly. If
he could, the Governor would like
to make the appointments
“tomorrow.”
