The meeting starts at 7:30 p.m. zens for repeat ed police visits City Council The Special Response Fee Ordinance would recover costs associated with gatherings and parties in at City Hall. The ASUO Executive wrote a new draft of the ordinance and presented it at an October council meeting, and a few amendments might make it into the draft before a vote. ASUO "changes included an amendment stating that 30 people constitute a gathering instead of 10, the number the ordinance cur rently specifies. “We felt the draft that is to be presented to the city council has too vague of language, and stu dents could see it as very threaten ing,” said Christa Shively, ASUO community outreach director. The ordinance includes varying consequences for the number of visits made to a residence: — For the first response: A warning will be issued if there are 10 or more people present, and there are two or more citations giv en out or arrests made. — For the second response: If the previous conditions apply, a fee will be determined if the sec ond response occurs within 90 days of the first response. The fee does not include any other citations that are issued, offi cer pay or the cost of equipment, all of which must be paid separate ly. Eugene City Councilman Gary Rayor said the ASUO did a good job of critiquing the ordinance. He agreed that 10 people is too small a number but thinks the ordinance itself is a good idea. “We’ll look at the entire ordi nance and then move to amend certain clauses,” Rayor said. “It’s going to end up with the students not being off that badly.” Re-count continued from page 1 the 14th Amendment. “It’s all subjective, and therefore it presents terrible problems of hu man error and potential for mis chief,” Baker said. A statewide ma chine-operated re-count has already narrowed Bush’s lead. Baker’s rival, Gore consigliere Warren Christopher, portrayed vote re-counts as a routine necessi ty of democracy. “If at the end of the day, George Bush has more votes in Florida than we do, cer tainly the vice president will con cede,” Christopher said, even while leaving open the prospect of court action if re-counting ends with Bush still ahead. Democrats filed court papers Sunday night arguing that Flori da's manual ballot law is constitu tional. Party lawyers also said Bush’s complaints threaten Flori da’s right to run its own elections. The stage is set for one of the most dramatic periods in Ameri can political history. A climax could come at the end of this week when final overseas mail-in ballots will be counted and the trailing candidate will be forced to con cede or push deeper into unchart ed waters. Their public financing drying up, both camps are raising money to pay rafts of lawyers and political operatives sent to every corner of Florida to examine coun ty voting records and wage a cam paign-style, poll-tested public rela tions battle. Among the weekend develop ments: —Palm Beach County, Fla., elec tion officials added three dozen additional votes to Gore early Sun day in a mechanical re-count. Leaders of the Democratic strong hold then decided to manually check each of the 425,000 votes cast. One top county official said he will try to block the move. —In Deland, Fla., Volusia Coun ty officials began a marathon man ual re-count of all 184,018 ballots, despite Bush’s pending request to stop it. —Democrats added Osceola County to their list of hand re count requests. Gore had a small lead against Bush in the 54,000 plus votes cast in the county just south of Orlando. Hispanic voters alleged they were required to pro duce two forms of identification when only one was required. — Florida secretary of state Katherine Harris, a Republican who has campaigned for Bush, scheduled a meeting Monday with Christopher and Gore campaign chairman William Daley as De mocrats expressed concern that she might refuse to certify ballots uncovered in the manual count. —Bush had a 17-vote lead in New Mexico, where state police have begun impounding ballots from Tuesday’s election. A Gore-requested manual re count in Broward County, Fla., an other Democratic bastion with Fort Lauderdale as its hub, was to begin today. A hearing is scheduled for Tuesday in Miami-Dade County, site of what Gore hopes will be a fourth manual re-count. Law donation continued from page 1 jurisprudence. Three years later, he joined the law school faculty and pursued multiple teaching ven tures. “Most people remembered him as a teacher instead of a dean,” rem inisced Ted Goodwin, a former stu dent of Hollis’. “Students seldom forgot a lesson that he taught.” Lowry found a vast collection of notebooks that Hollis kept on each graduating student. “He helped each one find a job for over 20 years,” he said. In Hollis’ first years as a profes sor, the law school consisted of two small classrooms, faculty offices and a library, all on the second floor of Oregon Hall. Hollis was instru mental in the school’s relocation to Fenton Hall, a lengthy project that was completed in 1953. During this time, Hollis was in volved with many community service efforts, holding such offices as president of the Chamber of Commerce, chairman of the Lane County Selective Service Board, University Athletic Representative and acting president of the State Service Board of Higher Education. He taught at least one class a term throughout World War II, some with an enrollment as low as three or four students. In a 1944 interview, Hollis was asked if he would act as president of the State Service Board. Hollis responded, “I’m willing to do this only if I can look forward to having the institution, whatever may come up, make progress.” During 1944 and 1945, the years in which Hollis served in this position and World War II was in full swing, the Uni versity was one of a select group of schools that continued to thrive during the war. Hollis continued in an advisory role to other presidents until his retirement in 1967. President Dave Frohnmayer, whose father, brother and sister-in law are all former students of Hol lis, said $1 million of Hollis’ dona tion will go toward professorships, and the rest will be used for student scholarships. “The students are immensely grateful to Dean Hollis for this won derful donation,” scholarship re cipient Sylvia Cramond said dur ing the Friday reception. “We were all surprised that this would come from someone who has [already] been so generous to this school in years past.” The bell that Hollis rang in the halls to signal the end of every exam period was also among the memorabilia he left to the school. “I keep expecting someone to confiscate this bell from me,” Strickland said, laughing, after ringing in the dedication cere monies. “I don’t think the Dean would have let anyone take his bell.” Smoking ban continued from page 1 But Torrev said there is a strong possibility the council will delete the option from the ordinance. “All of this has to do with sec ond-hand smoke and worker pro tection,” Councilman Gary Rayor said. “Things like smoking rooms and clean-air technology should have been done a long time ago.” If the ordinance is passed, it is unlikely the ban will go into effect on July 31 without a fight. The Bin gomania bingo parlor and several local bars have been vocal in their opposition to the ban. “We have formed the Eugene Freedom Choice Committee and have been working on [collecting signatures to put the smoking ban to vote],” Bingomania employee Cory Fisher said. Torrey said it is possible for citi zens to collect about 4,000 signa tures and put the ordinance on the ballot. “If they get 10 percent of voters, then it will be on the March ballot,” Torrey said. “The council could opt to refer it to the voters, but I will urge them to make a decision.” Torrey said if the ordinance is put to the voters, the results will depend on the strength of the argu ments, and those promoting smoke-free businesses have already made a vocal push for the ban. “In my opinion, it will be awful ly hard to overturn this ordinance,” Torrey said.
