Good diet won't
help drinkers
Page 7. THE GAZETTE-TIMES. Heppner. OR. Thursday. Ocl. 30. 1975
Heavy drinkers should be
aware that a good diet ii no
answer (o alcoholism, accord
ing to a Veterans Administra
tion report appearing in a
recent issue of (he Journal of
Ihe American Medical Associ
ation. "Good nutrition will not
prevent alcoholics from deve
loping liver damage unless
they rul down their alcohol
consumption," said Dr. Char
les S. Lieber, Chief of Ihe
Section of Liver Disease and
Nutrition at the Bronx. N Y.
VA Hospital and Professor of
Medicine at Ml. Sinai School
of Medicine.
"Traditionally, Ihe disord
ers affecting the liver in
alcoholics have been attribut
ed exclusively lo nutritional
deficiencies accompanying
alcoholism," Dr. Lieber said,
"but recent studies indicate
that in addition to dietary
deficiencies alcohol itself is a
factor in producing alcoholic
liver disease."

Colleges rate high
Completion of a two-year comprehensive study of the
strengths and deficiencies of Oregon's 13 community colleges
has been announced by the Foundation for Oregon Research
and Educatio n(FORE), a privately funded group composed
of business and professional leaders from around Ihe state.
The completed study was presented to Verne A. Duncan,
Oregon Superintendent of Public Instruction Monday by
Lawrence L. Rennet!, chairman of the Study Steering
Committee.
Among its 40 conclusions, the FORE study recommends:
Avoid or eliminate ranking for community college
instructors, I.e., full professorship, assistant professor,
associate professor;
The Legislature define carefully and clearly the areas of
responsibility for management and the areas of responsi
bility for labor; establish clear basic ground rules within
which collective bargaining should take place;
That local community college boards of education
monitor programs and drop courses when enrollments fall
below an established minimum, priorities shift, or
occupational opportunities diminish;
-Closer cooperation between community colleges and
four-year schools to make credits earned at the two-year
schools more freely transferrable within the state system of
higher education;
-Retention of the present funding formula (50 per cent
state general fund. 30 per cent district property taxes, 20 per
cent student tuition) and;
Better utilization of existing college buildings in lieu of
further construction.
The study alio recommends the Oregon State Board of
Education adopt a systematic method of program evaluation
for community colleges to insure better accountability to the
legislature and taxpayers.
Kennel t stated, "We were impressed with the diversity of
the 1 3 colleges and of the importance of keeping the fine line
lielween independence and state leadership which seems so
eminently successful."
FORE recommended the present decentralized form of
governance for the community college system be continued
giving the schools local autonomy wilhin broad state policies
under the direction of a local community college district
hoard.
The final report represents the work of five subcommit
tees, each assigned to examine a particular aspect of
community college programs or administration.
Kennel I said subcommittee study areas were developed
w ith the help ol the state's community college presidents. A
steering committee comprised of subcommittee chairmen
and several non-subcommittee members completed the
study com mil lee organization.
Rennet! said the central purpose of the FORE study was to
evaluate and determine Ihe effectiveness of the use of public
tax dollars in community colleges.
"As Ihe study progressed over the past two years, and
particularly as we visited the 13 campuses, our study
committee became impressed with the high quality and
dedication of these community college administrators and
their staff." Rennet! concluded.
A Hobo Dance is planned for
Saturday night, Nov. 1 by the
Irrigon Lion's Club at their
clu!souse.
A dinner was given and
there was a presentation of
awards Oct. 16, honoring
young people who helped work
in the scrap metal drive and
those who worked in the Fair
booth in Hermiston.
Lion's District Governor
and Mrs. Jay Binder of
Madras, were special guests.
Ron Daniels of Boardman was
Master of Ceremonies. Dist.
Gov. Binder spoke to the

Radial tires no
substitute for snow tires
Contrary to the impression
cf many motorists, radial tires
are no substitute for snow
tires for winter driving, ac
cording to new findings re
leased by the National Safety
Council.
Reporting on tests conduct
ed by the Council's Committee
on Winter Driving Hazards,
Stevens Point, Wisconsin, Ray
Prince, committee secretary,
said, 'Tests show that snow
tires provide more traction
over a reasonably wide range
of snow-covered road condi
tions than conventional radial
tires that do not have a snow
tread."
He added the range of
performance of the radial
tires was quite broad, in some
cases exceeding but in some
cases even poorer than some
conventional highway tires.
In these tests, seven brands
of radial tires were compared
with bias belted highway tires
and bias belted snow tires.
Both peak and spinning trac
tion were measured with the
vehicle standing still and also
moving forward at a speed of S
mph. Snow conditions ranged
from approximately one inch
of medium packed snow to as
much as eight inches of loose
snow.
In an earlier test program,
according to Prince, the
Committee found radial tires
offered no advantage over
conventional tires in either
stopping, traction or corner
ing performance on glare ice.
Prince said the current
snow tests were undertaken to
help municipalities decide
whether to modify their snow ;
ordinances to permit radial ;
tires in lieu of snow tires. 5
"Considering the outcome of $
these tests and earlier find- ?
ings by the Council, it is
obvious that conventional ra-
dial tires (without a snow ::
tread) are not a substitute for 8
snow tires," he concluded.
"Motorists should be advised
to use snow tires for mild-to-medium
snow and ice condi
tions and to use reinforced tire
chains for severe snow and ice
conditions."
Summarizing the council's
previous test findings, Prince
said that conventional snow
tires provide only a small
improvement in pulling ability
on glare ice although they
produce half again as much
pulling ability as regular tires
in loosely packed snow. Stud
ded tires are appreciably
more effective on ice, giving
about three times the pull of
regular tire;. And reinforced
tire chains provide from four
to seven times the pulling
ability of regular tires on snow
and ice.

Oregon retail motor fuel
dealers face a deadline for
installing full-range comput
ers on their fuel pumps.
The Weights and Measures
Division of the Oregon Dept . of
Agriculture said all retail fuel
dispensers must be in compli
ance with state regulations by
Jan. 1. 1976.
The division licenses all
retail fuel measuring devices
in the state.
As motor fuel prices have
moved upward some of the
computer-type pumps at retail
outlets have become obsolete
and unable to accurately
compute the higher total
purchase price of the fuel.
Computing limits on these
dispensers are 49 9 cents per
gallon and total price limits
are $9.99.
When prices first started
upward on motor fuels there
was a shortage of computer
conversion kits. To prevent
hardship on retailers of motor
fuels the Oregon Dept. of
Agriculture permitted contin
ued use of old equipment and
allowed the computerization
of the price at a price per
half-gallon. This price then
could be doubled.
K.J. Simila. administrator
of the Weights and Measures
Division, said after the Jan. 1
deadline the pumps with
computing limits of 49.9 cents
pergallon will not be allowed.
The only way that those
fbs i
pumps incapable of comput
ing totals of more than $9.99
may continue in use is if
individual deliveries do not
exceed $9 99.
The Oregon deadline is the
same as that adopted by the
National Conference on Wei
ghts and Measures. Some
stales have already establish
ed earlier deadlines.
Simila said manufacturers
of retail dispensers and dis
penser heads have had sup
plies to meet demands since
January. 1975. Ample supplies
of modification kits for exist
ing devices are also available.
Those violating the compu
terization regulations, if they
are individuals, are subject to
not more than six months
imprisonment or a fine not to
exceed $500 or both. For those
other individual operators
there is a fine of not more than
$2,500. Simila said.
