Students laud, blast, tolerate P.E. policy By TED KAPNICK For rn* Emerald "Please have your fee card and ID card ready,” is the new greeting to all who desire to use the activity level at Esslinger Hall State budget cuts have slapped students, facultystaff and the outside community with a users' fee Access to the recreation area is also restricted to one back door, and barbed wire sur rounds the playing fields "Now that we are not funded fully (by the state), we have to make the students and community pay," says Diane Baxter, the head of service pro grams at the physical education department Baxter noted all state universities and colleges in Oregon are charging students University students are not paying to use the facilities this term t» • J '•■OO't I I ■»^o. ***[<-; ^ 1 ° J4 -^lOClAl MCUfiTY MU*_f» l* ' L« KMfMi i*KW<•/ *5^ ? 90 ^ 3*-* * 1 O J4 SOCIAl MCU«ITY NUMHI ClASS Students’ reaction ranges from indif ference, to anger, to favor regarding the limited access and the requirement to present a stamped fee card to enter the recreation area Many have adjust ed, and flash their fee card as they hurry by a watchful guard However, one student fumbling through his backpack to find the card, expressed a common sentiment “I don't know where my card is,” said Will Anderson, searching in vain for the precious card "It’s a hassle — a major hassle " There were other comments. "It has made P E inaccessible to students,” junior Jim Harshaw says. "It's a guard house,” he says, referring to the barbed wire and locked doors. "I think it’s better than the whole public using the facilities.” says Todd Walker. Walker works in the equipment room at Esslinger Despite more room for students in the facilities now that non-students are prevented from using them, people still are reluctant to accept the abrupt change in the way things are being handled at Esslinger. "In three or four years they (students) won’t think anything about it," Baxter says. "It’s still a shock to me," she says, “I have to show a pass too.” Walker has already adjusted to the system. "You take your pencil and pad to go to classes, so why can’t you take your fee card to go to PE?” he says. Yankees jump to 2-0 lead John blanks Dodgers in second game of Series NEW YORK (AP) - Tommy John capped a year of tribula tion with seven innings of three-hit pitching and Rich Gossage applied his relief magic for the second straight night as the New York Yankees defeated the Los Angeles Dodgers 3-0 Wednesday night and took a two-game lead in the 1981 World Series John limited the Dodgers to three singles two by Steve Gar vey, before leaving for a pinch hitter in the seventh inning He pitched flawlessly for four in nings, retiring the first 12 men he faced Gossage recorded his second straight World Series save and sent the Yankees to Los Angeles for Game 3 Friday night The Yankees broke the scor eless tie in the fifth inning Ran Lowly Seattle keeps Patera, keeps trying SEATTLE (AP) — Judging the struggling Seattle Seahawks oft their 32-0 whitewashing at the hands of the New York Giants in the Kingdome last Sunday, they may be the worst team in professional football They were blown out 35-17 the previous week in the Hous ton Astrodome and now have dropped 15 of their last 16 games The immediate future looks dismal Of course, picking the Na tional Football League's very worst team is highly subjective But the Seahawks certainly rate as a contender for that dubious distinction After seven weeks, the Seahawks are one of five 1-6 teams in the 28-club NFL The others are New Or leans, Baltimore, Washington and Chicago General manager John Thompson and managing gen eral partner Herman Sarkowsky insist Seattle head Coach Jack Patera's job isn't in jeopardy Asked what would happen if the Seahawks wound up 1-15, a record that has to be con sidered a possibility off Seattle's dismal performance against the Giants, Thompson replied, "That's pure speculation We re not going to go 1-15." dolph led off with a hard grounder that skipped off the glove and up the chest of Dodgers second baseman Davey Lopes for an error John sacrificed Randolph to second and, one out later, Milbourne came to bat In the previous half inning, an error by Milbourne almost had allowed the Dodgers to break through against John The utility infielder, playing regularly since Bucky Dent suf fered a torn ligament in his hand, worked the count against Dodgers right-hander Burt Hootonto3-2 The switch-hitter, batting left, sent the next pitch down the left field line The blooper got over the head of third baseman Ron Cey and Randolph scored easily Hooton lasted through six in nings, allowing one earned run in 27 2-3 post-seasopn innings.
