Safeway Stores Make Bus Passes Available Beginning May 20, all Safeway stores in the Portland metropolitan area will sell Tri-Met tickets and monthly passes. The 30 Tri-Met Service Centers located in Safeway stores carry bus and MAX schedules as well. “ This partnership helps us make things easier for our passengers,” said Doug Capps, Tri-Met Executive Direc­ tor of Public Services. “ Safeway stores are open 24 hours a day, so our custom­ ers can pick up schedules and tickets whenever it suits theirown busy sched­ ules.” Passengers can also buy tickets and passes at 14 Albertson’s stores; 30 First Interstate Bank branches; the Tri- Met office in Pioneer Courthouse Square; Beaverton, Gateway and Coliseum Transit Centers; and 100 other loca­ tions throughout the region. Look For Safeway’s 1991 Expanded “ Know Your Foods” Booklet With over 15,000 food choices in the supermarket, it can be confusing and time-consuming to figure out what’s low in calories, fat, cholesterol or so­ dium; or what foods are a good source of fiber. Yet, surveys suggest that almost everyone considers nutrition an impor­ tant factor when making food buying decisions. Safeway stores in Oregon and Southwest Washington recently intro­ duced a booklet, entitle “ Know Your Foods,” designed to assist consumers seeking this information. Safeway’s 2nd edition “ Know Your Foods” booklet lists nutrient values for over 3,500 brand-specific foods low in fat, cholesterol, sodium and/or calo­ ries; plus, foods with fiber. New in this edition of Safeway’s Know Your Foods program is informa­ tion on the nutrition content of Fresh products, including; Fresh Fruits, Meats, Seafood, Fresh Vegetables, and Poultry In addition to many canned, bottled and frozen foods. Foods that fit one or more of the categories will have corre­ sponding shelf tags to easily identify these products. For example, a food that is low in sodium and fat will have a shelf tag that shows * V LOW SO­ DIUM, ✓ LOW FAT.” The Know Your Foods program uses nutrition information voluntarily provided to Safeway by manufacturers and follows the Food and Drug Ad­ ministration (FDA) guidelines & has FDA approval. “ The Know Your Foods” listings arc not endorsements for specific foods, but are offered to help make shopping easier. John Frohnmayer To Speak At Law School Graduation May 19 Harris, who has taught at the university for 11 years, was selected by a com­ mittee of the law faculty. Appointed by president Bush in 1989, Frohnmayer is the fifth chair­ man of the National Endowment for the Arts. During Frohnmayer’s U.S. Senate confirmation hearings, Sen. Bob Packwood praised Frohnmayer for having “ the uncanny ability that I wish most of us had from time to time to diffuse rather than fan controversy.” As NEA chairman, Frohnmayer was at the center of controversial hear­ ings in the U.S. Congress about NEA arts funding for works considered to be obscene by certain groups. A former chairman of the Oregon Arts Commission, Frohnmayer was most recently a lawyer in Portland, special­ izing in civil litigation. A native of Medford, he graduated from the UO School of Law in 1972. Frohnmayer is an accomplished singer and has appeared in recital, musical comedy and other musical productions in New York City, Chi­ cago, Palo Alto, Calif., and Oregon. John Frohnmayer, chairman of the National endowment for the Arts, (NEA), will deliver the commence­ ment address at the 105th annual Uni­ versity of Oregon School of Law Com­ mencement on Sunday, May 19. The commencement ceremony, honoring 164 graduates, will begin at 1 p.m. in the Silva Concert Hall at the Huit Center for the performing Arts, One Eugene Centre. The commence­ ment will be open to the public. UO Provost Norman Wessells will confer the degrees in President Myles Brand’s absence. Chaplin D. Clark, associate dean and professor at the UO law school, will serve as the com­ mencement marshal. During the ceremony, Clark will receive the Meritorious Service Award.
