Trials: Millions to be fundraised for event
Continued from page 1
Masback said, emphasizing that
money was not the deciding factor in
which city was awarded the trials.
“Money doesn’t hurt. I’d be naive
to say that it didn’t,” he said. “But it
was the quality of the ideas more
than the quantity of money (that se
cured the trials for Eugene).”
The athletics department spent
just $50,000 during the bid process,
Moos said, the rest came from the
supporting groups and other donors.
The presentation to the USA Track
& Field site selection committee in
cluded a video promoting the storied
history of Hayward Field, featuring
interviews with track and field stars
such as Maurice Green and Jackie
Joyner-Kersee discussing memories
of competing at Hayward.
It was only natural that the
University and others involved in the
bid process would turn to Nike for
help with the video presentation,
Moos said.
“There are no finer marketers — I
believe — in certainly the sports in
dustry than Nike, and we have a very
good relationship with them here at
the University of Oregon,” Moos said.
Moos said Nike has not pledged fi
nancial support “of any significance”
for the actual event.
He would not say whether future
contributions from Nike are expected
but commented that “we’ve got to
find several million dollars, so we’re
going to be out hitting the sidewalk.”
“We didn’t secure this bid based on
any pledges by Nike or any one or two
or three individuals,” Moos said.
Transportation shouldn’t be a prob
lem, as buses will shuttle athletes to
and from airports, Tom Jordan of
Northwest Event Management said.
Those involved are confident that
housing athletes and fans will not be
as difficult as some may think.
“We think these are issues that
are going to be addressed to the sat
isfaction of every single athlete and
hopefully spectator that comes
here,” Jordan said.
Masback said organizing a market
ing campaign that focuses on the na
tional and international market rather
than on just Oregon is one of the
most important things to do right
now. He expects everything to come
together well.
“I think that the great thing is
you’re not talking about a group
there in Eugene that’s never put on a
track meet,” he said.

Measure 37: Court's decision might be appealed
Continued from page 1
Day said Oregonians in Action will
appeal the ruling as soon as possible,
but in the meantime the group is
telling supporters to remain calm.
“It’s not the end of the world,”
Day said. “This is why we have ap
pellate courts.”
Kimball said 1000 Friends sup
ports calling a special session of the
state legislature to figure out what
to do now that Measure 37 has been
struck down.
The legislature attempted to clarify
the law in their session earlier this year
but was unable to compromise.
Kimball thinks a special session
would be more productive.
“I think an advantage would be
that it would focus their work,”
Kimball said, “and they now have
guidelines from the judge as to what
is constitutional.”
Kimball knows that this victory
does not close the issue of land-use
planning.
“This is not an end but the begin
ning of a larger fairness debate,” Kim
ball said.
University law professor Keith Aoki
said he was also shocked at the ruling,
especially because it came from a cir
cuit court judge.
“With the judges being elected, I
tend to think that would make them
more timid,” Aoki said, “but she kind
of dug in and made a strong ruling. ”
The ruling was broader than the one
in 2002 that struck down a similar law,
Measure 7, on technical grounds. It is
hoped the broader ruling will lead to
changes in Oregon’s land-use laws,
Aoki said.
“Land-use planning was ripe for a
course correction,” Aoki said. “This
should lead to a long and healthy dis
cussion on balancing between proper
ty rights and state regulation.”
The unexpectedness of the decision
makes an appellate ruling another pos
sible surprise, Aoki said.
“I was ready to live with Measure
37,” Aoki said. “I wouldn’t even wager
a bet (on the appeal). ”
