Jones emphasized building/sight relationship, whole/part relationship, and the nature of re sources as being the three major disciplining principles of architecture Jones claimed modestly that he never built houses to win prizes, “but just to please the people who use them ” But whether Jones in tended to win prizes or not, he has had his share of recognition Pictures of Jones' work have made Time, Life and U S News and World Report magazines, and his biography made it into "Who's Who in America". Often, things never turn out to be what they promised in the beginning, Jones said Quoting Woody Allen, he said "just give it your best shot and don't worry about a little failure along the way ” "You may also find that many things you think are original someone beat you to a long time ago.” Jones also found much inspiration for his designs in the architecture of ancient times, using the principles of Japanese temples and 17th century French chalets. “ Only the passing of time will show what is lasting and what will fade," he said Currently teaching at the University of Arkan sas, Jones claims to be enjoying the best of two worlds: architecture and education "Architecture is a valuable treasure," said Jones "What one does with a legacy that contin ues is a time honored principle ' Jones' talk was the last of a series of fall lectures sponsored by students in the school of architecture Lobbyist Razor cut by ASUO ASUO Pres C.J Balfe has fired Ed Razor, ASUO director of state affairs and the student government's chief lobbyist, because of conflicts over man agement styles Traditional ASUO Executive management policy dictates the president and office vice pre sident make policy, says Debi Lance, ASUO vice president of state and academic affairs Razor s philosophy is not wrong, but it did not mix well with ASUO policy, she says "This has nothing to do with Ed’s competence," Balfe says "He just didn't fit in right. You have to bend a iittie to work in this office." Dennis Noble, volunteer coordinator of state affairs, and Mark Cleveland, ASUO director of University and academic af fairs, wiil divide Razor's respon sibilities until an acting director is named, Lance says. Although ASUO officials say the firing will not affect the lob bying effort starting in January, Razor disagrees By firing him, the office has lost a term of lobbying preparation and the director will have a short time to make legislative contacts before the session begins, he says. Razor adds he felt stifled in his job because he had to check every action wfth Balfe or Lance Two campus organiza tions have contacted him about lobbying in Salem, he says Razor would not elaborate. The firing is the third person nel change this year in the state affairs office ' I've always held the stance that when things haven't panned out, we ll change it,” Balfe says LTD plans hearing on fare increase Bus patrons may have to come up with some extra change if the Lane Transit Dis trict implements a planned fare increase in January The district’s board of direc tors will hold a public hearing on two different fare increase proposals Dec 14, at 7:30 p m at Eugene City Hall, Municipal Men ancfWmen Termanenr V/^fSpedal/^^ 1 regular price*. ^351 HOW $ Chaircof extra) °offer b«^|n( November 15, expires Decembcrii.

The new fare structure will be instituted in January An LTD staff report recom mends implementation of a 5-cent increase in cash fares only, but the report includes a proposal to increase cash fares by 10 cents, tokens and senior citizen fares by 5 cents and fast passes by $2 The 5 cent proposal would raise LTD's total expected far ebox revenue by $10,800 for fiscal year 1982-83 The across-the-board proposal would raise tarebox revenue by $41,200. the report estimates The 5 cent proposal includes a second staff report about LTD's declining ratio of farebox revenue to operating costs The report states that "con servative price increases are acceptable in the marketplace" if they are tied to inflation or improved service In September of 1981, LTD reduced nearly half of a June 1980 fare increase in an attempt to coax back disgruntled pa trons But that action has not totally compensated for climbing operational costs, the report says KAMPUS 343-7654 851 E. 13th JOB HUNTING?
