Cell Talk by Asmar A bdul Seifullah A • * r' t* From an inm ate sta nd po int I would have to say that the system is better o ff with a Parole Board. A r guments for the abolishment o f the Parole Board must be viewed as re gressive nostalgia from right-w ing conservatives w ho w ould destroy and inhibit the possibility o f any re h a b ilita tiv e process ta king place. The Parole Board is the balancing mechanism inside the system. It is the thin cord o f hope which inmates cling to and it should be allowed to function w ithout interference from politicians seeking p olitical advan tage or co m m un ity members who don’ t have the complete picture. Because o f the trem endous amount o f outside criticism and me dia exposure the Parole Board has come under fire and appears to be taking a stiffer stance with inmates In most recent tim es the inm ates that this reporter has access to who have appeared before the Parole Board feel th a t th e ir prison term date sets are unduly long because o f outside influence It seems insane to this reporter to penalize inmates be cause o f the isolated conduct o f a few. How can it be reasonable fo r people to hold incarcerated inmates responsible fo r released or paroled inmates? Every tub has to sit on its own bottom and to effect the even tual release o f many because o f the actions o f a few borders on insanity. Throughout the Oregon Crim inal Justice System the state maintains Ihe advantage over those who come before it. While some parties main ta in th a t the burden o f p ro o f is placed upon the state, there are Blacks, Indians, Chicanos and the poor who w o u ld argue the p o in t. C onviction in the case o f most eth nic groups is inevitable. The senten cing is done by a judge who th o r oughly represents the system and in carceration takes place in an institu tion designed fo r others. Through o ut th is collage o f onesidedness, prisoners, Black and white, suffer the failures o f a system ill equipped to deal with them. In the midst o f all this discord and b um bling stands the Oregon Board o f Parole. The Parole Board is the um bilical cord between inm ates and society and once this cord is severed Ihe vegeta tion o f warehousing w ill take place - men w ill die on the vinel The Oregon B oard o f Parole is inadequat mainly because it is com prised o f hum an beings People bring their inadequacies and preju Á ramarkable collection of elegant 1 1 2 Oflrm eptr - 'some available with lofts • Situated on s p a rk lin g lik e s I streams • Recreational facilities 1 amenities too numerous to men tion • Award winning ir chltects • dices with them into the system but people are all we have—all we are— computers couldn’ t do the jo b per fectly and there w ill always be dis satisfaction on both sides. What this re p o rte r recomm ends is th a t the Oregon Board o f Parole develop a better intelligence system that intro duces more players into the game. A more complete picture needs to be produced o f future clients. There is a d efin ite need fo r com m unity in volvement in an advisory capacity. If the judge that sentences a man to prison can act in an advisory capa c ity then the c o m m u n ity at large should also have a say in his release in an official capacity. Any decision that affects the life o f another hum an being must be carefully made. It is vitally im p ort ant that the Oregon Board o f Parole take advantage o f a ll sources o f in fo rm a tio n in its d ecision -m akin g process. The co m m un ity is a v ita l source fo r in fo rm a tio n and up to this point it has been out in the cold. I f people (especially Black people) would take an active interest in C or rections, Parole Procedures, C rim i nal Prosecution and Defense, I ’ m sure that a better system o f justice would evolve.

A The Oregon Slate Board o f Parole is comprised o f five citizen members appointed by the G over nor. It has the tedious task o f deter m in in g when an inm ate should be released from prison The length o f prison terms is determined by a Ju dicial Advisory Committee which is com prised o f five judges, five Parole Board members and a non voting representative from the Gov ernor’ s Office. L a te ly p u b lic concern has been voiced over what some consider as the premature release o f certain in mates and this criticism has placed the Parole Board in a high pressure situation. It now appears as though the Parole Board may be yielding to some o f the pressure placed against it. There is the controversial Peo ple’ s case in which the Parole Board granted a parole to People who had served less than five years on a forty year sentence. The arrest and subse quent charging o f Parolee Leroy Earp for 1st degree murder has also placed stress on the decisions o f the Parole Board. One has to now won- deT if the Parole Board is capable o f functioning in its designed capacity without giving way to poitical or in dependent community pressure.

There Career Corner by Bernadine Gilpin Today I want to talk about some basics in appearance when you want a job. Often people approach me and say, “ 1 need a jo b ,” but the way they look says something else. So, here are some AB C ’ s or I should say, the three C’ s o f the active job seeker. When looking fo r a job, you should appear clean, careful, and conserva tive. This job hunt look should not be worn for interviews only W ho knows when someone you happen to meet might know about a job? I f you are looking like a slob, that person might not make the connection between the job and you. Connections are just what you need. People that know people get jobs. Let’ s take a look at those three C ’s o f the successful job getter. Number one, you must he clean. The hair should shine, fingernails cleaned, and hands well groomed. Frequent bathing and use o f deoderants is a necessary job skill. Close personal contact and bad body odor don’t mix. Make sure those teeth are brushed. Let onions, garlic, and booze be on your breath only after you know you’ re at home for the day. You want people to come toward you, not back away. The next ” C ” is careful. No hair sticking out in untrim m ed, poorly groomed bunches. Your appearance must give the message, “ I care.” In vest in an attractive hair style. The clothes you wear should fit well and be flattering to your size and shape. T all, short, fat, skinny, long-waisted or skinny-legged people look their best in very different styles. Know your best loo k. A good clue is the o u tfit th a t consistently brings comments like "y o u ’ re really looking fine today!” Your clothes don’t have to be new, but they should have no stains, spots, split seams, frayed edges, missing buttons or half-mast zippers. You don’ t need a lot o f clothes, but their condition should tell loud and clear that you have pride in yourself. The third " C ” fot that job-hunt look is conservative. This is not the time to grow that beard or try out the latest “ pop” styles. You may have your own ideas about what looks “ co ol” but while you are loo king fo r a jo b , conservative is the key. No plunging necklines, psychedelic colors, slinky slit skirts, danky flashy jewelry, unusual or heavy makeup or strong per fumes There’ s a time and a place for doing your own thing and being the unin hibited you. It is not while you’ re looking for a job in the public sector. Let your personality be the brightest thing about you in these jo b hunting days. Pay a tte n tio n to pant length and s k irt length. No ’ ’ high w aters” on either, please. No holes or runs allowed in socks or hose. Make sure those shoes are well-groom ed. You w ould be surprised at how o fte n you are judged on the condition o f your hands and shoes. Now that we've examined the three C ’ s o f the successful jo b seeker— C LE A N , CARE FU L and C O N SE R V ATIV E— you know that looking your best should not be fo r interview time only.
