Award-winning Disney animator visits Eugene Bill Justice helped create classic movies such as ‘Bamhi’ and ‘Cinderella' By Rachel Cooper lor the Emerald Academy Award-winning Dis ney animator Bill Justice ap peared at Valley River Center’s Northland Gifts Sunday to sign memorabilia and celebrate Don ald Duck’s 65th birthday. A large crowd of Disney fans of all ages waited in line to get an autograph from the man who drew on such Disney classics as “Bambi,” “Cinderella’ and “Lady and the Tramp.” Justice, who started at Disney in 1937 and re tired in 1979, also animated some early Donald Duck car toons. People had figurines, posters, even napkins, for the elderly Justice to sign. A video was also shown of one of the artist’s most famous creations, Disney land’s Main Street Electric Pa rade. The parade, which began in 1973, is a longtime Disney land attraction being revived next year. Originally a portrait artist, Jus tice answered an ad in “Esquire” for an animation job at Disney. He soon contributed to early Dis ney animations such as “Mick ey’s Trailer” and “The Brave Lit tle Tailor.” He won his first Academy Award in the late 1930s for “Fer dinand The Bull.” In 1955, Justice directed the in troduction of the television pro gram, “The Mickey Mouse Club.” When asked about his works, Justice said the sequence of Bam bi and Thumper on ice is “some thing I am very proud of.” One young boy waited to talk to Justice wearing a Donald Duck T-shirt and baseball hat.

Justice smiled and signed a poster for the boy. Justice wore a gold ring en graved with the image of Chip ‘N’ Dale, a character he helped ani mate. His advice for beginning animators? “The best thing is to learn how to draw,” he said. “There are many good books and art schools in which you can study and learn animation. Disney usually picks the best of art stu dents.” Paper Continued from Page 1A they printed for free before must have been wasteful, she said. “It wasn’t worth ten cents to the students to print,” she said. Regardless of students’ inten tions, printing has gone down. During fall term 1996, 550,000 pages were printed in the ITC and library reference area. A year later, after pay-to-print, that number shot down to 143,000 pages. Printing costs also fell from $11,000 in fall 1996 to $2,880 in fall 1997. Students, who pay a $65 Edu cational Technology Fee each term, have mixed reviews for the policy. Senior Majken Elek, for one, is positive. “When I can, I print double sided, even if I have to pay,” she said. “At least something is being done to help reduce waste.” EMU lab crowded, costly Deep in the EMU basement, where the computer lab resides, the scene is quite different. Students crowd around the printers at peak hours, often waiting 15 minutes or more for their files. Signs litter the walls, urging students to print double sided whenever possible. Lab assistant Angela Sko rodinsky said each of the three printers use one ream of paper per hour during peak times. At 500 sheets per ream, that’s 1,500 pages in one hour, and much of it is being wasted, she said. “Every few hours, we pick up about a ream of paper that’s been left behind,” Skorodinsky said. “People initially look bad upon having to pay, but when they dis card 20 pages, they wish they would’ve thought before print ing." Mary Bradley, EMU lab coor dinator, said that the number of pages printed in the lab from July to December of 1997 was 450,000. In 1998 during the same period, that number shot to 750,000 pages. About half that amount gets thrown away or re cycled, she said. EMU lab manager Doug Simp son said the printing increase is probably due to the lab’s free printing policy. Carver isn’t so sure. “Use may be going up, but I don’t think you can attribute Today’s Events Monday, April 12 ■ The International Students Association will be holding an Africa Day Celebration from noon to 1 p.m. in the EMU amphitheater. ■ The Women's Center is holding a Pride Hall Town Meeting from 4 to 5 p.m. in 138 Gilbert. ■ The Survival Center Is fea turing guest speaker Kevin Danaher on the issue of global ization from 7 to 9 p.m. in the EMU Gumwood Room. that to the fact that we [the li brary] charge and [the EMU doesn’t],” she said. “When we first instituted pay-for-print, there was no noticeable change for quite some time in the EMU lab.” Both said students need to print more now from the Internet — from class notes to syllabi to grades — and this has con tributed to the increase in print ing. A default to double-sided printing, however, hasn’t pro duced a significant reduction in paper waste, at least in the EMU lab, Simpson said. “When we first started ... there was actually more waste because people who wanted single-sided printed all over again,” he said. “But now we are making some savings.” Campus situation Other labs on campus, includ ing those in the education build ing and the Social Science In structional Lab, also have pay-to-print policies, while oth er labs, such as Klamath and Millrace, still allow free print ing. Many students hope the pay to-print policy doesn’t spread, despite their concern about pa per use. Graduate student Ruth Merle, who uses the EMU lab about once a week, said printing can be regulated some other way, like with print monitors. “The pages and pages that peo ple waste is really discouraging, but I think charging is a bad idea,” she said. “Ten cents is too much.” Much of the issue is finan cial. In the library, the cost of implementing the pay-to-print policy last school year out weighed revenues by $3,000. Students will continue to be charged for printing so that the library can use its technology fee money to improve equip ment and software, not support free printing, said Carver, asso ciate librarian. As long as they’re needed, labs that charge for printing — and those that don’t — will be avail able to students. “We can’t change what stu dents think they need to print,” Bradley said. “We can only do what we can to manage our re sources wisely.” The Oregon Daily Emerald is published daily Monday through Friday during the school year and Tuesday and Thursday during the summer by the Oregon Daily Emerald Publishing Co.
