teachers to meet the cer-
tification requirement
* There were very few
teacher training institutions
offering the course before the
new regulation took effect in
J a n u a ry ," B ryant said.
‘Teachers who anticipated
the requirement and wanted
to take the class couldn't
because the class simply
wasn't being offered.’’
Adding to the problem was
the fact that the TSPC
changed the expiration date
for certificates from June 30
of each year to the ap-
plica n t’s birthday. It then
became possible that a
teacher born in e arly
January might not be able to
renew his certificate because
he hadn’t taken a class that
wasn’t even being taught.
According to B rya nt,
Clackamas ESD, along with
others,
recognized the
potential problem last fall
and began offe ring the
workshop. Following that
lead, the State Department
of Education and TSPC have
now approved a class outline
so the anti-discrimination
class can be offered by any
ESD across the state.

The missing link: The
Times of London officially
banned the use of the title
Ms. from its latest style book.
According to one of the
newspaper’s columnists, “ It
is a rtificial, ugly, silly,
means nothing and is rotten
English It is a faddish
middle-class plaything, and
far from disguising the
m arital status of women, as
is claimed, it draws attention
to it. It is vanity.” Thy name
is woman.
Basing the senior citizen:
Trailways now offers to
persons 65 years of age or
older a 13 percent reduction
on a ll bus fares. The
“ Unflation Fare” has no
strings attached and can be
used anytime, anywhere.
That’s fare enough.
Policing the Police: Police
Lt. Charles M orris and
Detective R.J. Howell of the
Pampa,
Texas,
police
department went to the local
high school to show a film to
students studying govern­
ment. A senior, Joni Covalt,
complained when she found a
police car parked in her
reserved spot. School policy
states that if a student parks
in another’s reserved spot,
he or she is either paddled or
has to spend an hour in
detention hall. The officers
chose the hour’s detention.
They should have towed
away their car.
Pet Paradise: A m illion-
dollar pet shelter has opened
in Sparks, Nev. The shelter,
financed by the George
Whittel Foundation, has 82
kennels, a dog pool and
exercise yards. There’s a
v is itin g
room
where
prospective pet owners can
meet and get acquainted
with the dog or cat they
might adopt, a classroom
where local school teachers
can bring pupils to learn
“ humane attitudes” toward
animals, and a seven-foot
bulletproof wall to protect
the resident animals. A sign
of the times’’
The zoos are for petting:
Foreign women living in
Tokyo
have
p u b licly
threatened physical violence
to the next Japanese man
who "tw e a k s , pinches,
strokes
or
otherwise
touches” any of them while
tra ve lin g in the c ity ’s
overcrowded subway. In a
letter published in the Japan
Times, the women said, “ If
you animals don’t act like
gentlem en, we w ill not
behave like ladies. Why must
your sneaky, loathsome,
roaming hands take ad­
vantage of our vulnerability
in the packed trains?”
You have to ask?

Ash from the Mount St. Helens eruptions has lightly covered Brightwood and other areas up
the m ow tain. This Brightwood vehicle was covered with the fine dust on Monday.
Cold asphalt may have future
Many low volume roads in
Oregon and the Pacific
Northwest have been built
with cold m ix asphalt since
1966.
The performance has been
promising but the uses have
remained relatively limited
up to now.
The head of the Oregon
State U n iv e rs ity T rans­
p o r t a t io n
R e s e a rc h
Institute, R. Gary Hicks,
sees their use in the future
for many secondary and
even main roads, however.
Part of his forecast is
based on observations made
last month in Sweden where
mainline roads are being
resurfaced with a cold mix
consisting
of
asphalt
emulsion and graded crush
rock.
“ We’ve been using layers
of 2-8 inches on our log roads,
depending on the quality of
the road base The Swedish
Road Administration is using
layers of 1-2 inches on
existing state highways,”
Hicks observed.
Increased experience with
open
graded
asphalt
emulsion mixes w ill bring
advances in design and
construction that w ill further
enhance their use, Hicks is
convinced.
“ There are several ad­
vantages:
lower
cost,
resistance to cracking, less
energy consumption because
there are fewer pieces of
equipment involved, and
safety — reduced fire
danger, good skid resistance
and faster runoff of highway
water through the more
porous surface.”
The Swedish road experts
also say cold m ix design
roads are quieter.
from April 14 through 18. The

Banks has lectured in
every
English-speaking
country in the world. His
program on “What to Do

frequently given talk in the
world, as he has performed it
more than 5000 times.
