Shrauger eats her way to victory
Mary Shrauger. recently
elected to the Incidental Fee
Committee, can add someth
ing else to her list of accom
plishments — first place in
Monday’s ’’John Belushi
Commemorative Jello Eating
Contest.”
With towels around their
necks, contestants ate their
way through five rounds of
gelatin in the EMU courtyard.
Shrauger won the final
round with a time of 32
seconds.
“So much for my diet
today,” she said after the
contest.
Runners-up were Dan
“Glubbo” Branton, John
Smith, Janet Schneiderman
and August Weinstein.
Five teams, each with four
members, had been formed
to eat a bowl of green gelatin
with whipped topping as fast
as possible. The catch was
that contestants had to sit on
their hands.
The contest, sponsored
by the Student University
Relations Council, at
tracted a large crowd af
ter a rather slow start. Media
coverage, however, included
reporters and camera crew
men from both Eugene
television stations KEZI-TV
and KVAL-TV.
Mary Shrauger said the John Belushl Commemorative Eating Contest ruined her diet tor the day.

Neighborhood sponsors annual clean-up
By Oscar Halpert
Of (fw £m*ratd
The West University Neighborhood is
holding its fifth annual Spring Clean-up
in an effort to "plug in" area residents to
unified neighborhood activities, its or
ganizers say
Neighborhood residents can dump
some of their garbage and all of their
recyclable materials into receptacles
obtained cooperatively from the city and
two organizations
Joining forces with the WUN and other
neighborhood groups are the city
of Eugene, which provided publicity for
the clean-up, Sani-Pac garbage col
lection, which provided dumpsters at a
reduced rate, and BRING recyc
ling, which provided recycling re
ceptacles
Four drop boxes or "dumpsters" will
be located in the West University area,
which is bordered by the University on
the south, Willamette Street on the west,
Franklin Boulevard on the north, and
19th Avenue on the west, for certain
types of trash, says Joe LaClair, pre
sident of WUN
LaClair says only “things that’ll just
mold in your lawn if not thrown away”
should be dumped into the dumpsters.
Residents won't be allowed to dispose
of rubber tires, household garbage and
concrete, he says
"People have a regular service tor
their garbage This is really an attempt to
get the neighborhood involved,” LeClair
says
WUN is distributing the dumpsters
throughout the neighborhood, and
"once they're full, that's it,” he says
BRING recycling, a non-profit organ
ization, will recycle glass of all colors,
flattened tin cans, aluminum, new
spapers, and scrap metal, says BRING s
Ken Sandusky.
Unacceptable items include tires,
cardboard, plastics and magazines,
Sandusky says.
“We basically look at this as a com
munity service We feel we'd like — when
possible — to support the community,”
he says
BRING's returns increased during the
last three years of the Spring Clean-up,
Sandusky says
"The first couple of years was a real
losing proposition, but each year for the
past three years has been much better,"
he says
Residents can take wood scraps up to
two inches thick to 1542 Mill St. The
neighborhood will use a city-loaned ma
chine to convert the wood into chips on
May 16
