MEChA reps disgruntled
over $1,306 budget cut
By KENT KULL8Y
01 tue Emerald
While other ASUO organizations walked
away from Thursday's tive-hour Incidental Fee
Committee hearing apparently contented,
MEChA (a Chicano student organization)
representatives seemed disgruntled when the IFC
cut $1,306 from its proposed 1979-80 budget and
put $900 more on reserve
Arguments over the expense of speakers for
MEChA events occupied much of the budget
hearing
"The reason Mexicans aren t here in this
institution is because role models for them aren't
present Bringing good speakers here would
provide those role models." said MEChA Director
Manuel Loera
MEChA's recruitment expenditures were
severely cut as was its special proiects request, a
change Loera said would complicate the difficul
ties of recruiting in Chicano communities
Loera also said that brochures needed to be
printed bilingually so Spanish-speaking parents
of prospective students could read them The IFC
reduced funding for the brochures to $50
Women in Communications sought IFC
funding for the first time in its 75 year history on
campus, and the IFC questioned its proposed
expenditure for speakers
IFC member Dusty Rhodes wanted the
speakers to tie regional, but Mary Pallesen ar
gued that prestigious, out-of-state speakers were
preferable
The IFC budgeted $200 for speakers from
the requested $450
But the longest arguments were saved for
last, when the Repertory Dancers presented their
$4,500 budget
"I'm offended that the directors of this group
are faculty members." said IFC member Maria
Rof|o "I think students should take the
leadership roles “
Janet Descutner. faculty director of Reper
tory Dancers responded that the wide range of
productions needed long-range planning faculty
could offer, and the faculty debate was on
The IFC cut $170 from the Social Workers
Interest Group's budget of an organization of
CSPA undergraduates and put two thirds of the
Guide, an index of course descriptions, on
reserve since the Guide promised to try reduce
production costs
Because more students attended Spring
term than was projected, the Office of Student
Management gave $5,000 to the IFC
Mark Miller, director of the Drug Information
Center, asked tor the IFC for $1 000 to pay April
wages
The IFC allocated $1,000 and put another
$1,000 on reserve to the DIC

all my children
Looks like Jeff and Kristina are in San Fran
cisco (and out of the range of AMC's cameras) for
a while, destined to become like Ann Tyler — a
character mentioned now and then, but never
seen
Actually. 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 "
