Rewards of architecture
are personal, says expert
' There are financial rewards in being a "cake
mix” architect, but it's not very satisfying," said a
visiting architect Wednesday evening
Fay Jones, who was an apprentice to master
architect Frank Lloyd Wright in 1953, gave a slide
presentation and lecture on “ Architecture in
Practice” and Wright's influence on his work
Although Jones was always impressed and
stimulated by Wright’s designs, he “never tried to
be a little Frank Lloyd Wright”, said Jones
"Because as Wright told me himself, there is no
little Frank Lloyd Wright!"
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

The district’s board of direc
tors will hold a public hearing on

proposals Dec 14, at 7:30 p m

Courtroom 1. 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
