Eddy becomes own boss, opens Mulino pet store
by Caree Hussey
Feature/Managing Editor
“I’m always busy, but it’s a
good kind of busy,” said Susan
Eddy.
Eddy has a lot of irons in the
fire these days. Not only is she a
wife and mother of two, but she’s,
also a student here at CCC ma
joring in veterinary medicine.
Recently she opened her own
pet store.
This isn’t the first pet store
Eddy has owned. When she lived
in Nebraska a few years ago she
not only owned her own pet store,
she raised all the animals that
she sold in it. Eddy was also a
member of the Wildlife Rescue
Team there.
Eddy explained that she’s
“been an animal person all my
life.” Currently, Eddy and her
family personally own 10 ferrets,
three cats, two dogs, one bird,
one lizard and 30 fish.
“I like people and I like ani-.
mals,” said Eddy. But that isn’t
her only reason for opening a pet
shop.
“I live in an area where there
are no pet shops and I needed an
income,’’she said. Plus, she hasn’t
found any local pet shops that
she feels she can trust.
Eddy feels that her pet store
is different because,”I do research.
I get five trade magazines and
one hobbyist magazine and I read
them cover to cover. Plus I own
75 encyclopedia-type books on
animals. If there’s something I
don’t know then I’ll consult vets
and other reliable people in the
business. I also go to seminars.”
According to Eddy, most pet
stores “don’t even read the maga
zines they have in their own
stores.”
Eddy commented that she
only sells “quality animals and
fish,’’and that “I 100 percent
guarantee all my fish and ani-.
mals.”
How is she able to do this?
“All my animals and fish get
personal care. I talk to my ani
mals and fish, I give them indi
vidual attention. It’s necessary
for normal growth.”
There is one exception to
the guarantee: “I don’t like sell -
Work study jobs open

Reference, experience, edu
cation and pay are just a few of
the advantages of being in the
work-study program.
To
obtain wiork-study, a student
would have had to have applied
for financial aid between April 1
and April 22. Ofthe 156 people
who have been granted work study,
only 100 have applied for jobs.
Pay rates for the work study
program range from $4.02 up to
$4.97 per hour, with a possible
earning of up to $850.00 per
quarter. Checks are mailed once
a month. All of the jobs are on
campus and can be rotated around
a student’s own class schedule.
Since last year, there has been a
44% increase in the number of
financial aid applicants.
“Applications are going to
be reviewed for those students
who have handed in the financial
aid form between April 1 and
April 22,” said Kathleen Scheer.
Therefore, students may obtain
work study only if they have al
ready applied.
Students who have been
awarded work study-should go
to the Job Placement Center and
let Sheri Schoenbom know if they
still want to be in thé program,
before the job they want is given
to someone else.Or, they just let
the Financial Aid Department
know if they do not want to use
the work study that has been
granted. The work-study that has
not been claimed, will be given
away without consent of the stu
dent who has accepted the pro
gram.
CCC students visit
Ad Museum
by Patricia Adams
Staff Writer
Jerry Leadham, Mel Hos-
teger and 15 advertisingstudents
visited the American Advertis
ing Museum, Thursday Oct. 20.
The Advertising Museum is
the only one. of its kind in the
world. It was started by contri
butions and loans from advertis
ing agencies in June 1986.
The present theme of the'
' museum was political advertis
ing. Included were videos of the
, candidates who are running in
the election as well as ones from
pastyears.
Some of the permanent
I exhibits are the advertising time
[ line which shows when advertis-
I ing first started and brings you to
present day. The specialty sec-
1
don shows items that worked their
way into the hearts of American
homes. The outdoor section
displays Neon lighted signs such
as the Greyhound’s “Running
Dog”, the Mobile gas “Flying
Horse” and the famous Burma
Shave signs which at one time
were actually part of Portland’s
history.
Eddy’s store, The Fishery and
Friends Pet Shop currently has
for sale: fish, rats, hamsters and
ferrets. Anything other than that
can be special ordered.
the shop is located at 26362
S. Hwy. 213 and Mulino, and is
open from 4-9 p.m. during the
week, and 10-6 p.m. on Saturday.

Debaters happy with showing

Clackamas Community Col
lege’s Forensics Program, also
known as the debate team, took
part in The Pioneer Classic at
Lewis & Clark Oct. 14 and 15.
The subject for this debate
was that significantly.stronger
third party participation in US
presidential elections would
benefit the political process.
Members of the debate team
for this year are Kevin Swanson,
Sara Lack, Jill Overfield, Stepha
nie Stokes, andMitch Sherrard.
Only Jill Overfield has had expe
rience at the college level, said
Randy Baker, who is the new
coach for the debate team re
placing Frank Harlow while he is
on sabbatical leave.
Debate is only one event that
team members do individually,
Baker said. There are 12 things
they do individually, such as:
informative speaking, persuasive
speaking, and an oral interpreta
tion of literature which border
lines on acting.
What goes into a debate is
mostly research and preparation.
At this debate, 12 hours were
spent debating. There was three
to four times that much was done
preparing and researching.
If you are looking for a place
to. visit and learn at the same
time, go spend and hour at the
museum.
In this tournament 15-20
four-year-colleges were to com
pete. There was a much smaller
number of community colleges
present at The Pioneer Classic.
In all there were 500 to 1000
people participating.
The museum is located at
2nd and Bumside in Portland,
and is open Wednesday through
Friday 11 a.m. to 5 p.m., Satur
day and Sunday 12 noon to 5,p.m.
Admission is $1.50; children 12
and under are free.
Columbia Community Col
lege made a good showing; their
team has been building for a few
years.. Clackamas Community
College on the other hand, is a
much younger team, according
to Baker.
CCC won some debates and
did very well in speaker points.
Speaker points are awarded
depending on how competent the
speaker was and how well he
presented the issue. The team
brought home no trophies, but
they were happy with how well
they did.
“I have worked with teams
with no talent and feel that this
team has a lot of talent and it’s a
. said.
Debates were done in a two
on two level: two teams of two
people debate, for about an hour
and a half.
“The team is building into a
family,” Bakersaid. He added
that everyone is working together.
The team is now preparing
for the next debate, which is .the
First Designated Tournament at
the University of Puget Sound in
Tacoma, Washington, during Oct.

ing fish to people who won’t lis
ten about the care. I can’t offer
the guarantee to people like
that,’’Eddy said.
Eddy said that she will “try
to find out what people have and
what they want to mix with. You
have to knowwhat they want and
require from that animal or fish.”
Normally, she will not buy
fish locally because “most fish
will live from two to five years,
but the average age here is four
to five weeks.” When Eddy does
buy fish locally, she handpicks
each one.
What is Eddy’s secret for time
management? “I only sleep about
two or three hours per night, plus
my husband helps by running the
business end."
