Evolution theory debated
A lecture and discussion on the controver
sies surrounding Darwin's theory of evolution will
be held tonight as a fund-raising activity for the
University's natural history museum.
The lecture - entitled "100 Years after Dar
win - Why Darwinism?" will be held at 7:30 p.m. in
Room 150 Geology Today is the 100th anniver
sary of the death of Charles Darwin, the English
naturalist who in 1858 propounded the theory of
the evolution of species through natural selec
tion.
Tickets are $3 and are available at the EMU
Main Desk and the natural history museum.
University Pres Emeritus Robert Clark will
moderate the program, including the question
and answer portion. David Wagner, director of the
University herbarium, will present the evolution
ary biologist's view, while Scott Chambers, assis
tant chemistry and physics professor at George
Fox College in Newberg, will present the crea
tionist's view.
Chambers, who holds a doctoral degree in
physical chemistry from Oregon State University,
is expected to discuss the role of intelligence in
the development and utilization of genetic codes,
and will try to place the question of geochron
ology in perspective He also will deal with the
charge that creationism is nothing but religion in
disguise.
Wagner, who uses evolutionary theory in his
research on plants, will explain why scientists
typically ignore creationist theory.

Tax resisters collect
Many people don't pay their
income taxes, but not many
want to admit it
Peace Concerned Tax Con
sultants, however, is vocal
about tax resistance Members
— opposing military spending —
refuse to pay federal income
taxes
Of federal taxes, 53 percent
goes to military-related expen
ditures, says co-founder John
Koehn. This figure doesn't in
clude the CIA, nuclear weapons
technology produced by the
energy department, or other
government organizations that
aid the military and are funded
by the federal government, he
adds
Peace Concerned Tax Con
sultants emerged from tax re
sistance workshops held in the
past four months Despite small
membership — 15 — it is the
largest Eugene tax resistance
group in a decade. Koehn says
People do not join the group
to shirk their responsibilities.
Koehn says, but because of
“deeply held moral beliefs."
They believe that the federal
government's emphasis on the
military is not “life-giving" or
"socially uplifting "
While conscientious objec
tors have the right to refuse
being drafted, “the money is still
being drafted," he says.
"There are some risks in
volved," says Koehn The
government acts as a “big col
lection agency" and sends let
ters that become increasingly
threatening The penalties are
something each person "con
tinually weighs out at each step
of the way," he says, adding that
some members are adamant
about refusing to pay anything,
while others withold a small

Correction
A recent Emerald story
incorrectly stated that IFC
candidate Dale Penegor
thought the IFC should
not be told by the athletic
department how its ASUO
subsidy is being spent.
Penegor believes the ath
letic department should
tell the IFC how it is
spending student funds.
