Not worth Torture
I recommend that Torture Ridge
Run oe ebmmated from runners
spring plans tt is irresponsible of
its sponsors to continue to offer a
run wrtvch has poison oak almost
everymrfvere along the trail. Last
year even though I was protected
by clothing everywhere except my
hands, knees, neck and face. I in
curred $150 m doctor s bills
The afiergic ingredient in poison
oak penetrates the skin, attaches
itself chemically to the protein
structure and is earned in the
bloodstream throughout the body
( Immunology and the Skin,"
Appleton-Century-Crofts, New
York. 1971). The immuno
system s overabundant re
sponse to this foreign invasion
causes itching, oozing, swelling
and strain on the body's waste
disposal system which can lead to
shock and collapse. Corticos
teroids supress that immunosys
tem response and reduce the
symptoms, but they have a
number of unpleasant side ef
fects. e g . masking, and decreas
ing resistance to. secondary viral
infections ( "Physicians Desk Re
ference").
In my case, besides the anxiety
attack I got as one of the possible
side-effects of taking cortisone
(which landed me in the
Emergency Room). I developed an
infection next to my spine in a
poison-oak lesion (though this
area was covered with 2 layers of
clothing during the Run) which re
quired an operation and three
post-op visits I was still i« from the
infection in late June, and have
many permanent scars from in
fected scratches and sores
Please don't participate in Tor
ture Ridge; it rsnt worth it

Time to compromise
After six months of frustrating
negotiations, it appears question
able whether the GTFs wil have a
contract with the University by the
end of tt»s academic year Cur
rently. the negotiations are in a
new phase, meriation. whkh we
hope can end the cteadtock We
feel ft is smperatve that both sides
approach this phase with a spirit of
compromise.
Certain issues on the table lie at
the heart of the GTFs concern. In
recent years. GTFs salaries have
fallen sigrxficanby behmd with re
spect to the cost of Wmg index,
which s usually a conserva&ve in
dcator of the actual mpact of in
flation TTts has placed some de
partments in the precanous posi
tion of losing potencai graduate
student instructors and resear
chers of a hKjh caiber to other
universities wtvch offer more at
tractive monetary enticements.
This situation should be one of
utmost concern to the entire uni
versity community students and
faculty alike
We also feel that it «s the nght of
ail employees, fun and part-time to
recerve adequate heath care ben
efits financed by their employer,
since health care is a major finan
cial burden. Though it seems
there are contradictory taws re
garding university financed health
care for GTFs. a positive effort,
either through an official clarifica
tion of this situation by Attorney
General Redden or through alter
native avenues, has been lacking
on the part of the administration
We urge the state board of higher
education and its representatives
on the negotiating team to provide
an effective and acceptable solu
tion to this problem.
Although fair and equitable
treatment of GTFs in aN depart
ments should be a goal agreed on
and aspired to by the administra
tion as wel as the GTFs, items
that deal with this matter have
been a major bone of contention
at the negotiating table. It is incon
ceivable that would ensure the
rights of individuals including
those not already specifically pro
tected by law. We feel it s to the
benefit of al GTFs. faculty and
administration, that a contract be
worked out that embodies the
pnnapies and speaks to the con
cerns mentioned above, and that
it be signed and accepted as soon
as possible.
