March 8. a picket line is plan ned at the Federal Courthouse at 4 4 5 p.m. International Women's Day originated on March 8, 1908. when thousands of women garment workers marched through the streets of New York to protest the miserable conditions and long hours faced by women in that industry. They also demanded the right to vote. The holiday has been almost forgotten in the United S tite s , the country of its Oil spills in the news create interest ui special technology that already exists at Portland Community College As part of the marine engineering technology stu dents learn about handling oil spills in a course called pollution control. Departm ent Chairman John lupney explained th at the pollution control course is only one of many that interre late in the school's transportation pro gram He ha* spent years putting together class«s for students to take advantage of learning one skill that relates to others. In the past year, certain gains of women have been under attack The Hyde Amendment attem pts to deny Medicaid payments for abortions. Certain states are try in g to rescind th eir ratifies lions of the Equal Rights Am endm ent. Affirm ative Action offices set up to prevent discrimination in hiring, pro motion and wage scales for women and minorities are finding th eir effectiveness undermined through governmental policy changes. International Women's Day 1977 em phasues responding to these attacks. Take the otl spills Last week the students enrolled in the pollution control class spent lab tim e w ith chemistry instructor Jun Anderson learning about gas chromatography. "This is a form of fingerprinting oil spills," Lipney said. Lipney explained tnat one function of the Const Guard is to identify specific oil in the w ater to discover who caused the spill. One method to speed the identifies non process is gas chromatography, another is infrared spectroscopy The students are tested cn their knowledge and skill regarding the use of contaminant booms, dispersants, and ah- sorbants in handling oil spills when they complete the four credit hour pollution control class. "A lot of people are paying attention to developing this type of curriculum." Lipney pointed out. O n * approach is a conference scheduled m New Orleans in March devoted entirely to oil spill. That conference w ill he an opportunity for educators and others working in the marine industry, to hear technical re ports about prevention, behavior, control and cleanup that can then be used in curriculum design. Lipney reported. Lipney views the total transportation picture lor PCX' w ith enthusiasm. T h e re is so much opportunity for expansion. " he said. W’ith the advent of the new drydock the Coast Guard marine inspection pro gram w ill increase. That inspection program alone de mands a number of technical approaches, Lipney said, which includes the knowl edge about pollution control. “The best way to cheer yourself is to try to cheer lom e body else up.“ M ,,k Twa,„ Peaches u” The Saint M ary of the Valley and Jesuit H ig h School Departm ents of Theatre have joined to present the all-smging. all-dancing, all-every thing musical production.
