calls. Lenny says
But during this jolly time.
Lenny's second wite back home
in California was silently plotting
his destruction, he says She
j squandered money on
racehorses and the social life,
and managed to use up most of
\ Lenny’s wealth on her own in
vestments
So Lenny hurried back to the
| States to salvage the remnants
of his fortune After three years
■ of litigation, he settled for a
fraction of it, he says
By this time it was the late
j 1960s, so Lenny traded his
| black bow tie for some wood
beads and opened an art mu
seum at Haight-Ashbury. where
he sold funky posters like the
f ones that now adorn his res
(taurant
When the police raids and the
riots broke out in 1969, Lenny
left the bohemian life His for
tune and dreams of retirement
gone, he was in the market for
another career His oldest son
happened to live in Eugene at
the time, so Lenny came here to
try his hand at the nosh busi
ness
If not for that divorce settle
ment some years ago, Lenny
claims his restaurant would now
be a grand affair in the center of
town or down the street from
Hayward Field.
Instead, Lenny made cheese
cakes to survive, selling them
to local restaurants and at the
Saturday market Still deter
mined to have his dream come
true — "By that time, I just had to
do it" — Lenny settled for the
smallish spot in the Courtyard
and went to work
After shelving his original
nosh menu and selling strictly
hot dogs, Lenny has returned to
offering giant four-egg

Ihaps the only remaining filbert
orchard in the area
The orchard, though dras
tically reduced in sire by a sum
mer construction proiect in the
area, could become a place
where students and faculty can
eat and relax. Edwards says
A playing field is currently
under construction near the
south bank of the Willamette
River The field will be used for
(instruction, recreation and club
sports, says University planner
David Rowe
Researchers at the bio-social
colony, located east of Silva
Orchard, perform experiments
on animal behavior, says Prof
Michael Menaker, director of
the Institute of Neurosciences
Originally designed for
researching wolves, the colony
now studies the circadian
rhythms — biological clocks —
of hamsters and several species
of birds, Menaker says
By studying animal's rhythms,
which are similiar to human be
ings, physicians can administer
medication at "peak times,”
thus increasing the effective
ness and lessening unwanted
side effects. Menaker says
Echo-location research on
bats and color vision studies on
monkeys are also conducted at
the colony
The urban farm, located
behind B J Kelly's, features an
interdisciplinary program of
studies by the landscape archi
tecture department Students,
faculty and community re
sidents learn to practice careful
land use and produce large
portions of their own food, says
Richard Britz, coordinator of the
one-and-a-half acre farm
Biologist Russel Fernald, who
researches the visual processes
of the African ciclid fish, hopes
to gather information that will
aid in developing devices allow

And while Bevington says
members of the University com
munity are major customers,
transiency among students
prevents them from participat
ing in LTD elections and deci
sions In the next few years, she
says, "We have to educate the
public as to funding options "
Bevington says part of LTD s
problem is that the public still
thinks it's too expensive to ride
the bus — a misconception, she
says, because after car insur
ance, gas and maintenance
costs, riding the bus is cheaper
than driving a car
Although driving is more con
venient, Bevington says the new
service was designed with con
venience and time-saving in
mind
Because the service changes
will be implemented right after
fall term begins, Bevington says
LTD will staff information
booths at the EMU and registra
tion, and is inserting a tabloid
detailing route maps and
schedules in the Sept. 21 issue
of the Emerald
Bevington says new timeta
bles, which will be distributed at
7-11 stores and at the SUAB
Information Booth in the EMU
Main Lobby, will be available
after Sept 15 For more infor

omelettes with a wide choice of
fillings; hot meatball sand
wiches; a varied selection of
sandwiches and salads; matzoh
ball soup; and a “Bavarian
Plate,” featuring a pair of gour
met frankfurters
Patrons can also sample
Lenny's almond-mocha or
chocolate-rum cheesecake and
match wits with one of a number
of video games
The entire menu is available
until 3 am, when Lenny closes
his nosh bar.
Money is tight these days, but
Lenny remains optimistic about
the future.
"I just hope I don’t fall over
into the hot-dog steamer,” he
chuckles
