Unique women’s service revamps staff, programs By JOHN CANFIELD Of The Emerald The University has its own little niche among the various women's action groups with the Women's Referral and Resource Service (WRRS). It has recently reor ganized its programs, and Jenny Greenleaf has been appointed as a new coordinator. The service is a group of “con cerned and highly energetic women,” according to Carlene Fishmann, a WRRS client. Three separate coordinators work in var ious aspects of the program. Greenleaf organizes various WRRS programs and works in coordination with other women's groups at the University. Polly Moak, another coor dinator, works as a liaison in the community and advocates for women's issues, such as abortion legislation. The third member of the trio is Jeanna Cernazanu, who coordi nates the management of the of fice, referral and resource ser vices and supervises the work of 12 volunteers and a work-study person. Volunteers who can help staff the office and organize work shops on topics of interest or con cern to women are always needed, Cernazanu says. One of the main responsibilities ofWRRSis referral. When women come in with a problem or ques Law school to host right to die program The Law School will host a symposium on the right to die today. The second in a three part series of events focusing on the recently passed "right to die” statute, this symposium will feature a panel dis cussion of the statute's potential impact and a presentation on hos pices. Herb Titus, University law professor, says the statute is designed to enable people to write “living wills" so if they could only be kept alive with the use of artificial life-sustaining machines, the physician could be directed to “pull the plug.” The panel will consist of State Representative Mary Burrows, Byron Smith from Portland’s Good Samaritan Hospital, Hugh Johnston of Eugene, and Saul Toobert of the University Counseling Center. The hospice presentation will be made by Jack Ewing, a University gerontology professor. Titus says hospices are alternatives to hospitals and nursing homes for persons who require medical care but have incurable illnesses. “It’s more personal, but takes the burden off the family over a prolonged period of time,” Titus explains. The statute was passed in the 1977 Legislature. The symposium will be from 1:30 to 5 p.m. in Room 129 Law School, at no charge to the public. Help wanted: people to work this summer If you’re interested in a summer job, don’t wait any longer to begin pursuing this sometimes scarce summer commodity. Representatives from Crater Lake Lodge and the Oregon Caves will be on campus Monday through Wednesday to interview students interested in summer employment at those resorts, according to Pamela Bigger, placement coordinator of the Student Employment Service. A variety of jobs are available in following areas: bellhops, food service persons, service station attendants, gift shop clerks, office and lodge desk clearks, boat operators and housekeepers. Students 21 and over can apply to be bartenders, cocktail waiters and waitresses. Crater Lake Lodge hires approximately 145 employees for the seasonal work and is "an equal opportunity employer.” Employees live in dormitories and are served their meals in the cafeteria. If students are interested in setting up interviews with these organi zations, all they have to do is come up to Room 262 of Oregon Hall,” says Bigger. It is sometimes necessary to send in an application with or instead of the personal interview. Vft^ XK IT FREE LECTURE * L Is Self-Mastery something you can attain?

Greenleaf says WRRS will start consciousness-raising groups, which will bring women together to discuss and resolve their prob lems. Long-range goals are to reach more women and "to prom ote autonomy in a sexist culture," says Greenleaf. A WE CLEAN RECORDS BETTER. ANDYOU CAN PROVE rr. An independent testing labora tory tested Clean Sound against the cleaning system you probably thought was the best. They used highly sophisticated proce dures and exacting meas urements. (We’ll be glad to send you a copy of the results.) But Clean Sound far superior, that can prove it to your self without all that sophisticated equipment. Clean Sound reduces static charge by 94.6%. Compare that to 70% and you’ll see how obvious the difference is. And Clean Sound's cleaning effi ciency is 68%. Noticeably better than the other's 45%. So, even if you have someone else’s appli cator, try using the Clean Sound Solution. You’ll prove to yourself. Clean Sound is the best there is.
