Rape suspect arrested By David Brown Of Vw Emerald The Lane County Sheriff's Department has arrested a prime suspect in the Friday rape of a 19-year-old University student Philip Wade McClure, 29, was arrested Monday night at his home at 1100 River Loop 1 He is being held at the Lane County jail on charges of rape and sodomy on $100,000 bail, and on charges of parole violation with no bail set McClure, a convicted rapist, was paroled from the Oregon State Penitentiary after serving time for a rape that occured about a half mile from the location of Friday s rape The woman was accosted Friday at 11:30 a m about a quarter mile from the Knicker bocker bridge while jogging towards Spring field on a bike path paralleling the Willamette River McClure allegedly struck the woman over the head with an umbrella, dragged her 15 feet toward the river bank and raped her, according to the victim's statements "It's our belief that somebody ran by when the rape was taking place," said Detective Randy Banks of the sheriff's office. The office hopes that person will come forward to offer further assistance, Banks said. "As far as we are concerned, we re looking at no other suspects." Banks said McClure fits the description given by the victim almost to the last pound and inch, he says. Furthermore, McClure owns a Volkswagen van similar to one seen in the area at the time of the rape With assistance from the Eugene Police, the sheriff’s department arrested McClure after a citizen came forward with information, Banks says. Detective Dave Poppe of the Eugene Police Department requests that a woman who apparently escaped an assault in the same area sometime near Oct. 9 come forward to help identify McClure Poppe can be contacted at 687-5185 The woman called the department concern ing an attempted sexual assault but was referred to the sheriff's office, Poppe says IT'S PRIME TIME EVERY THURSDAY NIGHT PRIME RIB DINNER FOR 2 Come see our renovated dining room!

With 15 of 32 precincts reporting, DeFazio was defeating incumbent Vance Freeman by about 3,000 votes in the Springfield district De Fazio had 58 percent of the vote compared to Freeman’s 35 percent. In the West County District, with two of 38 precincts report ing, Ivey carried 53 percent of the vote to incumbent Harold Rutherford's 40 percent Ivey had almost 5,000 votes while Rutherford had about 3,700 Bill Rogers, running unop posed for the East County posi tion, nabbed 75 percent of the vote, with three of 42 precincts reporting Some 25 percent of the voters chose not to vote for the position. DeFazio, who is a legislative aid for Congressman Jim Weaver, attributed his success to his attention to issues and his platform, which emphasized economic development and energy ' People want a leader, a fighter who wont let government roll over them,” DeFazio said Tuesday night DeFazio claimed that Freeman's "negative cam paign" worked in De Fazio's fa vor, because "voters want pos itive campaigning and positive leadership.” Ivey, who is the mayor of Junction City, emphasized action as a key in bringing about the diversification of Lane County, according to the Voter's Pamphlet Voters turned away About 10 to 15 student voters were turned away at the campus precinct Tuesday because their names were not on the precinct list, said Ann Heryford, Precinct 213 chairman Some of the students said they registered through the ASUO voter registration drive, Heryford said. The precinct has had problems in the past with the ASUO not turning registra tion forms into Lane County Elections headquarters, she said The ASUO did have problems in the past but special care was taken on this year’s registration drive, said Mark Cleveland, ASUO director of University and academic affairs He found five lost forms in the office, three of which did not have phone numbers, Cleveland said The other two were contacted and told about the discovery, he said The students may have voted at the wrong precinct, Cleveland said During ASUO telephone canvassing, many students did not know their correct precinct location, he said Because of the number of forms turned in, some may have been lost at Lane County Elections, Cleveland said. Such a foul-up happened to him last year, and he was unable to vote, Cleveland added Oregon Student Public Interest Research Group may have misplaced some forms, he said. OSPIRG registered about 600 student voters, according to Cleveland Heryford said the elections office has often received in complete forms from student government registration drives and the office is not required to contact the registrant if the form is incomplete Some of the students may have gone to the wrong precinct or their forms may have been lost, she said Peace Corps Helng a react C orps volunteer means taxing wtrat vou know, sharing It with others, and learning about life In another country, another culture Developing nations want to glow more food to leed their people Improve schools and expand public education provide adequate shelter and clean drinking water Insure good health care and haste nutrition build roads and transportation systems The person who becomes a Peace Corps volunteer must have a strong committment to helping other people He or she must he wilting to learn their language appreciate their culture and live modestly among them If this sounds like you, we'd like to show you the many opportunities beginning soon In 60 developing nations You can apply now for any openings beginning In the next 12 months toughest job you’ll ever love r-\ INPURMATION TABLE IIO EMU Lobby, Nov.
