DANILO
DOLCI
Noted Italian peace activist, poet,
author and theorist of non-violent
direct action. Dolci will speah on
“creativity, education, and
Grass-roofs developments”.
Sicily exports Danrio Dolor America exports Alexander
Haig. Dolci comes to America to talk about non-violent human
responsibility Haig goes to Europe to huxter (sic) human
extermination
Those who would prefer not to die at the hands of Haig
and his henchmen would do well to welcome DanUo Dolci to
ponder his words to take a measure of hope Haig all
appearances notwithstanding, is nor god He can only play
god. and the performance is a dismal one But Dolci plays
human and in an open season on humans we had best take
seriously his counsel his example, his unquenchable hope

Biker ends trek
Seattle-Eugene, 1 day!
By Marian Green
Of tty Emontd
No one said it would be easy, but as he
pedaled the last leg of his 300-plus *
Seattle-to-Eugene bicycle ride, 53-year-old
Eugene Smith made it look simple
“Nothing to it,” Smith said, breathing heavily
just minutes after dismounting from his bike onto
the red carpet at Valley River Inn Having barely
caught his breath, Smith peeled off layers of
clothing and talked to nearly 50 people who had
anxiously awaited his arrival
Smith made the 24-hour, non-stop journey to
raise money to help curb world hunger His ride
was sponsored by World Runners, an
international organization of athletes working
since 1978 to end the hunger crisis But ride
pledges received by early afternoon Sunday
were only $77, much less than expected
Smith said he would have arrived three
hours earlier if Washington State Police hadn't
pulled him over five times and made him detour
30 miles on back country roads
He also took a spill near Harrisburg,
separating his clavicle, a bone near the shoulder
blade "Other than that, everything went all
right," he said
Smith clipped along at a pace of about 19
miles per hour, a speed he said he "never
thought I’d be able to maintain "
What got him through the long haul down
Interstate 5?
"I didn’t dare stop," he said "I just knew I
was going to get here, and when I saw the
Eugene exit, I thought it was the most beautiful
thing I've ever seen.”
But for 14 hours, Smith couldn't see much of
anything The stretch of I-5 was lit only by a full
moon
Before the trip. Smith said he feared the
nighttime would be cold, lonely and eerie But in
retrospect, Smith said darkness wasn't too
frightening
"Sometimes it was eerie, other times it was
spiritual,” he said
Riding at night has a strange motion
Sometimes, it almost felt like you weren't doing
it," Smith said
After Smith praised his four-man road crew
and kissed his wife Elaine, a four-legged greeter
sauntered up to congratulate him
From now on, the greeter, a 5-year-old
Wildlife Safari cheetah named Kayham, will be
the official mascot of World Runners Her trainer.
Laurie Marker, said Khayam is a natural for the
title "What better mascot than the fastest land
mammal — the cheetah.' she said noting that
Khayam has been clocked at 78 miles per hour
"I'm impressed I really wasn't sure he could
make it.” said Mark Jackson, owner of the Pedal
Power bicycle shop, which provided a trip
mechanic and arranged for the donation of the

Eugene Smith was stopped five times by Wash
ington State Police during his trek to raise
money to curb world hunger.
15-speed Bridgestone bicycle Smith used on the
ride
Saturday night, Jackson said he had
nightmares and couldn't sleep worrying about
Smith, who has ridden a bike only a few short
months A long-time runner, Smith switched to
bicycles in September while recuperating from
an ankle injury
Emily Whitlock, who also celebrated a
birthday — her 55th — Saturday, rode her bicycle
out to Valley River Inn to meet Smith, because
she thought the trip was neat
"He's got to be in awfully good shape to do
that," she said

Who St. Valentine was...
According to one legend,
St Valentine was a Roman
priest with a special feeling for
young people. When the
Roman Empire needed sol
diers, Emperor Claudius 11
decreed no one could marry or
become engaged. Claudius
believed marriage made men
want to stay home instead of
fighting wars. Valentine defied
the decree and married the
couples. He was arrested and
put to death.
The legend goes on to say
that while in jail he made
friends with the jailer’s
daughter, and by miracle he
restored her sight. The morn
ing of his execution, he sent
her a message signed, “From
vour Valentine.”
Valentine was beheaded and
near his grave a tree burst into
pink blossoms — a symbol of
lasting love.*

and Red Roses’ By Edna Barth
