Jack Delay doubts Carter s energy plan By JANE LEHMAN Of the Emerald Jack Delay, Eugene city coun cilman, expressed doubts about Pres. Carter s energy plan at an informal meeting Tuesday night. The open meeting was called by Eugeneans who attended the Third National Confemece on Al ternative State and Local Policies, July 7 through 10, to share infor mation they acquired. Delay commented on a speech deli vered by Barry Commoner, author of several books on energy, re garding the National Energy Prog ram (NEP). Referring to the rhetoric that preceeded the release of the plan, Delay said, "Either the na ture of the program was poorly portrayed or else they changed their minds during the process.'' However, Delay did emphasize that the Carter proposal was to be commended as the first national integrated energy plan. On July 1, the Office of Man agement and Budget released budget projections and statistics for 1985. According to these fig ures, there will be a 4 per cent greater reduction in energy con sumption under the NEP than if no plan were followed. The figures also indicated a 30 per cent increse in energy con sumption over the next eight years and an even larger per capita in Bring this Ad |Fri.

However, residential con sumption will dwindle from 30 to 20 per cent of the total. Delay in terpreted this as a shift to industry use in setting consumption priorities. Only 16 per cent of the addi tional energy will be generated through conservation measures. Nuclear power will contribute 23 per cent and coal will provide the rest. “Based on these figures, the conservation tone of Carter’s energy policy is a hoax,’’ con cluded Delay. “There are lots ol other estimates that conservation efforts can generate a lol more than 16 per cent of out energy needs.” He added, “The conservation end is so weak it does not ever include a mass transit compo nent.” Under the plan, three times more money will be spent on nuc lear energy than solar energy. “The commitment is to nuclea and the commitment is to breeder. We re not abandoning breeder, but we re developing a better one than today’s,” he said. Delay also worriea aouui mw economic repercussion of turning to nuclear and coal energy, calling the move “a tremendous oppor tunity cost to the public.” He exp lained that solar energy requires little capital outlay and has the po tential to employ many people. But the capital investment re quired for nuclear and hydro electric generation excludes all but large corporations from enter ing into the production of fuels Delay sees the NEP as having a detrimental effect on the Pacific Northwest. “It continues the Bon neville Power Administration trend of going to much more ex pensive electricity through hydro. We'd be in good shape compared to the rest of the country if we re lied only on conservation." The NEP, according to Delay, will lead to financial “strife’' due to the burden put on the average consumer and lower income bracket person to meet their future energy bills. Family Vacation College: leisurely paced education By TOM WOLFE Of the Emerald Until this week at the University’s First Annual Family Vacation College, Margaret Keller of Forest Park, III. hadn't been able to enjoy a full day of activities without having to take some time out to care for her son, bom 17 months ago. Then she read an article about vacation colleges in the Sunday Section of the Chicago Tribune which included a blurb on the University’s unusual offering for whole families. “For me it sounded perfect, she remembers. “Since Andy was bom I’ve never really had an op portunity to have a complete day free. My husband and I wanted to come out and visit the West Coast and the family vacation college sounded like a great way to do it in a relaxed way.’’ The Kellers are one of six families visiting the University campus through Friday. They are staying in the dorms, one hall for parents and another for their chil dren. The younger participants are supervised by University stu dents who take them on recrea tional trips while the parents meet in lectures and for campus tours. Both parents and their children, aged 17 months to 14 years, agree that vacation college is a real vacation. For children there are picnics, hikes, swims, movies and other activities planned all day long and through the evenings, while parents spend leisurely days hearing guest lectures, socializing and touring the cam pus. “The families are almost never together during a whole day, Kel ler smiles. Effie Fairchild, director of the vacation college planned it that way. “We set it up so that parents are doing one thing, while staff have the kids off doing some thing entirely different. Fairchild got the idea for having pill I 561 E. 13th Av 561 E. 13th Ave. — Across from Max's — 344-1714 NATURAL HAIR DESIGNS FOR WOMEN & MEN! $11.50 includes shampoo, moisturizing conditioner, hair cut designed for you, and air-waved — a completed easy care style $8.50 a wet cut designed for you and your hair for easy care, and air-waved — a completed style to go anywhere. $6.00 a dry cut for those who prefer dry cuts — designed for your hair and you.

"Reading through letters from past participants in the adult vaca tion colleges, I found many of the people attending said they regret ted having to leave their spouses or families at home. The idea of bringing families just sort of sug gested itself and I took the initia tive to go ahead and do the plan ning." Fairchild uses students from her Leadership and Programming class from recreation and parks management to plan activities for the kids. Students from Fairchild’s class volunteer for certain hours and completely direct the children s activities. They plan possible ac tivities and then re-plan each day to accomodate impulses of the young vacationers. The children are divided into three age groups and the 13 Uni versity students working with the program work some part of every day depending upon their class schedules. Adults attending the college pay $136 for the entire week. Food and lodging is included. In addition, charges for children range from $50 to $10 for those less than five years old. At those prices the college can’t be making money, as Fairchild admits, "but it’s not costing any thing either,” she readily volun teers. "We’re totally self sufficient.” One reason is that the larger adult vacation college is linked to the family prototype and advertis ing revenues for the family college may be borrowed from the adult account. The adult college is scheduled for August 15 through 22 at the University Inn. Vacancies still exist for the August session and interested adults should call Fair child at x4134 for reservations.
