Womens clinic opens
A psychological counseling
clinic for women operated by
women is gearing up for a
busier schedule during the
school year at Portland State
University.
Called the Women's Psy­
chological Clinic, the service
operates on the premise that
some women may want to
take advantage of psycho­
logical counseling from other
women rather than men.
The clinic is staffed by
Carol Gygi, a graduate stu­
dent in urban studies at
PSU, and Courtney Good
monson, a psychology doc­
toral student.
The two
women founded the clinic
last year.
Ms. Goodmonson said the
clinic will add an additional
therapist this year to met
an increased demand for
counseling services.
"Our
goal is to reach women in the
community with a counseling
service that otherwise would
not be available to them at
such a moderate price," she
said.
There is a fee schedule for
both individual and group
counseling sessions.
The hours of the clinic,
which is in Room 365, Cramer
Hall. 730 S.W, Mill, are be
tween 9 a.m. and 2 p.m.
Monday through Friday.
For more information on
the clinic, call Ms. Good­
monson or Ms. Gygi through
the D epartm ent of P sy ­
chology at Portland State
University at 229 3923.

Kent Russell is one of five
Portland Community College
ituder.ta using a shoe repair
shop as a classroom this fall.
The college launched a one
year course in shoe repair
following a plea from the
Master Shoe Repair Associa
tion of Oregon, whose spokes
men say their trade "to
dying”.
Portland’s shoe repair shops
have dwindled in number
from over 300 to less than 40
in recent years. Shop owners
(eel that low apprenticeship
wages have been one of the
reasons for the apparent tack
of interest in the trade.
Their idea was to make
available a more productive
way of entering the trade,
enabling younger members
of the profession to buy into
existing shops and “fill the
gap" left by retiring shoe
repairmen.
The result is the PCC
course in which students
work a 40-hour week with a
shop owner his only teacher,
the shop his only classroom.
Russell, formerly of Eu­
gene, has been learning the
craft from Dave Vanek, who
owns a repair shop in East
port Plaza.
Vanek shares his know­
ledge of the use and main
tenance of equipment, and
bench work, including stit
chery, heel and sole work,
and reshaping
BLACK HISTORY THROUGH COOKING
I had heard about “ The
Historical Cookbook for the
American Negro.” I knew
it was out o f print and that
no one who owned a copy
wanted to part with it. A
precious document o f reci­
pes honoring famous Blacks
of the past.
In a bookstore in Harlem
I met a woman who knew
Dorothy Height, National
President of The National
Council of Negro Women,
publishers o f the book. She
suggested I get in touch
with her. Even the Council
didn’t want to let their copy
out o f the office. Then by
chance I met a fellow w ork­
er at Best Foods who knew
the book. Her sister Helen
Norvelle was a regional
Director of NCNW in 1958
when th< book was publish­
ed and she offered to let me
borrow her book. There were
so many recipes I wanted to
try, and so much to read
about Black history; pictures
and documents to study-a
delight in every way. Here
is just one recipe from the
book, Banana Nut Bread.
Now that I know there’s
a copy of “ The Historical
Cookbook for the American
Negro” in the Schomburg
Collection at 103 West 135th
Street in New York City
I may refer to it again.

Kent Russell learns the finer points of shoe repair in
Portland Community College's new leath er Crafts program
which places students in an on the job situation with an ex

these centers would attract,
voluntarily by reason of their
quality, middle class children
in sufficient numbers to pro­
vide a healthy balance of
student enrollment.
This
would give additional re­
sponse to those who feel that
our administrative transfer
program is too much ’one
way’.”
Blanchard also admonished
staff members to apply an
equal standard of conduct:
“I challenge all teachers
and administrators this eve­
ning to renew their effort to
provide consistently the same
type of firm, even handed
discipline and understanding
they would expect for their
own children. This should be
carried out with respect to
all students, irrespective of
background. I am convinced
that that is what the parents
of this community want.
This superintendent will back
this staff in that renewed
effort regardless of the num
ber of suspensions and the
consequent number of times
parents are required to come
to the school to get the
issues resolved.
The college has set no
fixed terms or enrollment
dates for the shoe repair
course. Interested persons
may register at any time
during the year bv contacting
