News briefs Women’s health clinic closes its doors Abortion services have become even more limited in Eugene. The All Women’s Health Services clinic, once located at 633 E. 11th in Eugene, is packing up shop indefinitely. The clinic was the only abortion provider in Eugene. Now the closest location is Portland. "We are not abandoning women in the area,” said Executive Director Lois Smith. “We will still be working with Pro Choice and Planned Parenthood,” she said. The purpose of closing this location was to expand and improve services in the Portland clinic, Smith said. She added that there are a growing number of women in the Portland area who need the clinic’s services. “It’s really a strategic business decision,” she said. AWHS began in 1971 and has been in the Eugene area for more than 10 years. In 1999, they began offering primary care services as well as abortion and birth control. “At this point, there are no plans to reopen the office in Eugene,” Smith said. —Jenni Schultz Oregon football games to air on East Coast television New York City hasn’t seen the last of Ore gon Football — not by any means. A year after an enormous poster of Joey Harrington was plastered in Times Square, Duck propaganda has returned. This year, it’s a 53 foot by 172 foot photo of wide receiver Keenan Howry filling the city’s skyline, which simply states “We’re Back.” Unlike the Harrington Heisman campaign, this year’s poster has a two-fold purpose. Aside from getting the Ducks recognized on the East Coast, the poster serves as a precur sor for a new campaign that will put Oregon football on East Coast television. All 12 of Oregon’s games will be aired on New York’s YES Network, a 24-hour sports and entertainment station that reaches about 8.3 million homes in New York, Connecticut, New Jersey and Pennsylvania. The games are expected to be replayed Sundays at 2 a.m. — Brad Schmidt Fraternities continued from page 4 extra requirements that greek members have.” Beta Theta Pi was among the first chap ters to submit its letters of compliance, but Meisel said the motive for such quick compliance was fatalism rather than enthusiasm. Chapter adviser John Kanan echoed that sentiment. Kanan said he opposes the new standards — particularly the substance-free housing provision, which he called “dis criminatory” — because they take away the ability of individual chapters to govern themselves. “Internally, (fraternity members) must learn to manage themselves as a business,” Kanan said. “Unfortunately, the University feels that they have the authority to regu late off-campus activities. I’m very con cerned about that.” Nevertheless, Kanan said he recommend ed quick compliance to chapter members when the new standards were approved. “There’s no sense in going through a full term with alcohol in the house and then having to shut it off in winter term,” he said. Kanan, who is Beta Theta Pi’s district chief for Oregon, said the fraternity system seems to be suffering for past sins. Beta Theta Pi, in particular, is doing much bet ter now than five years ago, when, he said, it was “out of control.” The University chapter of Beta Theta Pi is the last in the Oregon University System to go dry. The OSU chapter was closed down five years ago but has since been re colonized. As a condition of re-coloniza tion, the house remains alcohol free. The Willamette University chapter was forced to go dry by the general fraternity because, Kanan said, “they were not controlling what they did. “Beta Theta Pi firmly believes in self government,” he said. “But if (a chapter) is not meeting its obligations, the general fra ternity steps in to make sure that they do.” Leon Tovey is a freelance reporter for the Emerald.
