Carl Ferreira volleyball coach Community service Oregon is the best serving team in the Pac-10, averaging 1.96 per game. Chute is second in the league with 0.5 aces per game. “We’ve been serving really well and doing a good job of breaking other teams out of their system,” Ferreira said. “But even though we’re breaking them down, they’re still making the plays.” It is Oregon’s transition game. Ferreira said, that is not efficient enough. “We just have to stuff 'em,” he said. Leaders of the pack Oregon’s four upperclassmen — seniors Halie Mazza and Amy Ban ducci and juniors Monique Tobba gi and Gerlach — have stepped it up of late, and are more focused on their roles as leaders. Earlier in the season, Ferreira was somewhat critical of his team’s lack of leadership. Since then, though, the players have molded into their roles. “Maybe when the program was struggling [the last few years], they were just hanging on for survival and not working on competitive leadership,” Ferreira said. “Now they’ve begun to assume some leadership capabilities.” Kevin Calame Emerald Oregon seniors Amy Banducci (left) and Halie Mazza have started to display a strong sense of leadership on and off the court.

Flights of fancy capture your imagination this year, but common sense keeps you grounded. Dreams you share with a loved one motivate you in Oc tober. Reality rears its ugly head around No vember. Something new is required, and youll find it in December. Make the changes you re quire at home in January. Settle into a routine you can live with and love in February. Travel plans should materialize in June. Do what an older woman wants to gain in July. Do what a little birdie tells you in September. To get the advantage, check the day's rating: 10 is the easiest day, 0 the most challenging. ARIES (March21-April 19)—Today isa5 — Don't try something you just learned, in a work related setting. Instead, carefully watch what the others are doing. A breakdown is likely, and you'll look better if you prevent it than if you cause it. TAURUS (April 20-May 20) — Today is a 7 — Don't let a loved one ran off with your mon ey. He or she might spend it foolishly. That in cludes your kids, of course. You may feel gen erous, but if the other person's irresponsible, you could end up with buyer's regret. GEMINI (May 21-June 21)—Today is a 6— Somebody you live with could be difficult. Be gracious and forgiving, just because you can. Don't worry about who is right or wrong; try to stay cheerful. That will help you come up with a good idea. CANCER (June 22-July 22)—Today is a 7 — Carefully review information you're receiving, even if it's from a reliable source. Catch the er ror before it gets far, and you could save others' time and money. That could make more time and money for you, which would be nice. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) — Today is a 5 — A friend's fabulous scheme sounds great, until you look at it closely. Don’t fund it with your savings, or you could lose the money and the friendship! An older person you don't always like could advise you well in this situation. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)—Today is a 5 — Try not to get into an ego battle with the person who signs your paycheck. That's not a good idea; even if you win, you'd lose. Watch your words and tone of voice, too. This may seem unimportant in a couple of days, so don't quit LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct 22) — Today is a 6 — Travel and long-distance communications are fraught with peril. Postpone sending valuable correspondence or packages. Your chances of getting through are better if you start later, even later today. A delay could be a good thing. SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) — Today is a 5 — Don’t trust a friend's recommendation if money's involved. That includes the money you have in investments, as well as the money in your pocket. What at first seems like a fabulous deal could be a huge disappointment. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) — Today is a 5 — Some tricky negotiations are going on, and some changes are being made. If you stay on the sidelines, you'll be less-likely to make one yourself. An opportunity may open up for you because somebody above you falls flat. Watch out! CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) —Today is a 7 — Work could interfere with your travel plans, but that's OK. If you work, you could benefit more than you expected. If you travel, it could cost more than you thought. So, keep working and be happy! AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) — Today is a 6 — If somebody at home or a close relative is having difficulties, offer your shoulder to cry on. Don't open your wallet far, however. That might make matters worse. Don't follow a loved one's financial advice, either. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) — Today is an 8 — If your partner or a close friend is having trouble at work or home, offer support and prayers. Don't get directly involved. You can't fix the situation that way. Besides, this tempest may be past by tomorrow. No point in you get ting all upset, too. 095 PERSONALS Eugene’s Coolest Party Line!!!

The CHOICE Program needs women to volunteer in the Eugene, Springfield, Marcola and Cottage Grove middle schools. As a group facilitator your role is to lead candid discussions and activities to help girls explore is sues impacting their lives. You can make a difference in the lives of at risk girls who may have no one else. Contact Vanessa McDonald at 485 5911 Ext. 104 to sign up for a train ing being offered on October 15th or 22nd. __
