Comission passes Krugerrand motion The Eugene Commission on Rights of Minorities passed a mo tion Thursday recommending that the city take some action to en courage the boycott of the sale of the South African Krugerrand. The commission indicated that a more elaborate written state ment would be drafted and sub mitted to the City Council to rep resent the commission's position, which will include a call for a public hearing on the matter. The motion was passed unarri mously. "The sale and advertisement of the Krugerrand is offensive to minority peoples. It is not condu cive to our good health," said Lewis Merrick, member of the commission. Three members of the People for South African Freedom tes tified before the commission and presented a resolution opposing the sale of the Krugerrand which they hope to present before the city council. Roger Walke of the group said that his analysis leads him to be lieve that $51.75 goes directly to the South African government for every Krugerrand sold. He adds that sale of the coin is “crucial to the South African economy.” Programs seeking willing-to-work students By CAROLYN BEAVER Of the Emerald Sitting back and observing is a safe and sometimes worthwhile position.
