relate its factors to her work in
law and eventually influence
public policy, Greene says
From the grant money
Greene has received so far, a
portion covers her salary,
allowing her to attend confer
ences. The rest will go toward
travel expenses — she plans to
visit China, the Caribbean, the
Soviet Union, Japan and Africa
— and a home computer, con
sultants, research assistants
and other expenses
But the grant money and
the opportunities it provides are
only small steps toward the
equality Greene seeks
"We re at a new level of
racism and sexism It's token
ism," says Greene "It's more
virulent now because it can
masquerade as equality
'Your presence (as a token
minority representative) doesn't
disconfirm the inferiority of your
overall group People still have
to be convinced that you de
serve authority," she says.
"Until white men stop thinking
that every position that goes to a
minority or a woman is one that
they gave up, nothing will
voluntarily change."
The grant money provides
the fellows free time, financial
support for self-directed re
search projects and the chance
to meet established community
leaders. "It’s like being born
into a family with connections,”
says Greene
The foundation also spends
$40,000 more to send each per
son to a series of seven
seminars, six held in the United
States and one in Brazil Each
seminar focuses on a different
world issue, such as the family,
energy resources and world
food production
“You gain understanding
of society's resources,” Greene
explains She finds herself
learning “who the key people
are to getting things done” and
acquiring the versatility to han
dle a wide range of situations
“It’s a different kind of
education — a self-education.”

Smokers kick habit — for day
By Frank Shaw
O* the Emerald
The first thing some
people do is reach for a
cigarette when they roll from
bed in the morning
The same people might
change their habits if the
American Cancer Society’s
sixth Great American Smo
keout — coming Thursday —
has its intended effect
In the Eugene area the
theme for the day is "go cold
turkey,” and the Sigma Nu
fraternity will have a table in
the EMU with information on
smoking and how to quit.
‘Smoking is the
number one health
problem in the
world and it’s well
worth our time to
devote this effort to
getting people to
quit.’
A group of persons who
tried to quit on their own had
an 11 month success rate of
only 1.1 percent
Another study done by the
Gallup organization showed
just over 16 million American
smokers tried to give up their
cigarettes on Smokeout Day
Up to 11 days later almost
three million people were still
not smoking, according to
the study
Philip Miller, area director
for the ACS, says there are 54
million smokers in the United
States, and over three million
ex-smokers
Smokers who come by the table and sign a
card pledging not to smoke for the day will
have their name entered in a raffle for a turkey
And many of the campus area restaurants,
including the faculty club and the EMU, are
having cold turkey sandwich specials for the
day
Cynthia Kane, health coordinator at the
the campus health center, says the purpose of
the Smokeout is to promote awareness of
people and to get them to stop smoking for just
one day
The goal of the Smokeout is to get at least
one in every five smokers to give up cigarettes
for one day, or 24 hours, whichever comes
first
A 1961 a fottow-up survey by the ACS
showed that 6.7 percent of the people who
participated in the smokeout still weren't
smoking more than 11 months later
..—.. .... - .... i.
"Smoking is the number one neaitn prob
lem in the world," he says, "and it's well worth
our time to devote this effort to getting people
to quit.”
Miller estimates cigarettes account for
325,000 deaths per year in the United States,
and cost the American taxpayer an estimated
$27 billion in medical expenses
"That money comes out of our pockets,”
he says
Studies show that the within the first 12
hours the body has started to heal itself of the
toxic effects caused by smoking Instead of
feeling better, though, most people begin to
feet worse
Miller says the first week is the roughest,
and if the smoker can make it through that they
have a good chance of kicking the habit for
good
