cated between Autzen Stadium and
Alton Baker Park.

now on sale for the summer per

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.

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.

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.”
