Jeff had a full life for a resident of such a sleepy town In Pine Valley's early days, (the community has existed for about nine years) Jeff was married to Erica But Erica s lust for $200 dresses, leisure-suit cars and public notoriety wasn't satiated by the caring and understanding that Jeff and his home-spun life offered The deceitful little tramp had an abortion in spite of Jeff's objections (there are feminists who would argue she had every right to), started a modeling career in New York and finally pressed for a divorce so she could marry her agent The agent and Jeff set up a rendezvous on the edge of town, but before Jeff got there, the agent's lights were premanently turned out and the specter of guilt pointed at Jeff After a trial of many agonizing months, the truth finally wormed its way to the surface Mona had killed the agent accidentally After a brief investigation, Mona was set free and Jeff exorcised Erica from his life, finding comfort in the arms of Mary Kennicott (who has since been bumped off by two escaped convicts Her ghost has split for Hollywood to make L Eggs commercials ) The death so upset Jeff that he took a residency at a Milwaukie hospital (actually. Jeff and Mary are hitched in real life, so when Mary left for the West Coast. Jeff followed) Eventually. Jeff got it straight (or the actor needed some bucks) and returned to fall in love with loony Kristina Karras, who came to the show with more psychological problems than Ward 7 of the state hospital Kris childhood was full of abuse from a father who really wanted a son, and she spaced out now and then Her guiltometer was in the red constantly because she was convinced she had killed her father with a scalpel But closer examination revealed that he had a heart attack at an inopportune time, and skewered himself The coast wasn t completely clear — Jeff had to compete with another doc at the hospital (who poisoned himself accidentally), but he eventually captured Kris for his own From the beginning, the marriage has not been groovy Kris is constantly compared (and compares her self) to the wife that Mary was, and she just doesn't cut it Maybe the air of the polluted bay will make things different Bar exam (Continued from Page 1) sponse time to 45 minutes or one hour, they telt the time should be tailored to tit the difficulty of the question The committee was also concerned with the quality of questions, which witnesses testified dealt with obscure areas of law not usually covered in law school The study group suggests that the bar examiners' board enlist the help of a professional testing service when preparing the bar exam The committee also recommends that several subjects be eliminated as requirements for the bar exam These areas include administrative law, corporations, partnerships and federal in come, estate and gift taxation The changes recommended by the committee may not be enough to satisfy lawyers and persons around the state who argue that the bar exam itself is outmoded and unnecessary Sen. Stephen Kafoury, D-Portland, an adamant critic of the bar exam, says the Hilton committee "totally missed the point" and the changes were "cosmetic " "They didn't address the problem They didn't look at the fundamental underlying question — does it really test competency?" asks Kafoury, who is close to graduation from Northwestern Law School at Lewis and Clark University in Portland Merrill disagrees "It was clear to us from the very beginning that the first question that should be asked is should there be a bar exam at all?' " But he says there was "not one alternative to the bar examination presented during the hearings that had less drawbacks than the present sys tem Kafoury contends the committee did not fully explore the alternatives to the bar exam because "it is easy to ‘est the old way and anything harder they don’t w.int to try " Chapin D Clark, dean of the university law school, sees the bar exam as a quality control to protect the public "When people don't have the capacity to judge the quality of services ren dered, and there is a great capacity to botch it up, a licensing procedure is necessary to protect the public," Clark says To which Kafoury replies "It seems to me if a person has gone through law school they ought to be able to practice law What's important Is ability anyway I mean, no lawyer when he is practicing 8ver takes a closed book test " To which Kafoury replies: "It seems to me If a person has gone through law school they ought to be able to practice law What's important Is ability anyway I mean, no lawyer when he is practicing ever takes a closed book test " Friday, April 13, 1979 ' it V« • ’I ;\ f*!**.V l'l : mVi« *
