Vice President for S1udcn1 Organi1.a1ions, Lauren
Bocanegra discu.<5cd an issue concerning Men's Rugby,
Lust yc,11. Men's Rugby applied for a chaner hut never
linishcd i1, ~1us failing 1hc chancr proce.<s. Therefore,
ASLC did no1 give Men's Rugby a charier nor a budge!.
This year. the rcprescnin1ivc from Men's Rugby sched­
uled mcels and asked ASLC for $600. Because 1hcy never
finished the cha11cr process, Bocancgrn suggested 1ha1
ASLCnol give out ~IC money. because !hey would be set•
ting an unwelcome prccedcm to the other student organi­
zations on campus. II was suucd Lha1, ins1ead. Men's Rugby

Free one-year Apple warranty. Suck some cancer! Ben Harfst critiques tobacco-puffin'
by .Benjamin J. Harfst
0 ver the summer I worked in
a furniture factory. I sanded
parts for dorm furniture. and
for 8 hours a day I wore a face ma.~k. Ev­
eryone who worked in the sanding depart•
ment wore one. And every day when the
horn would sound we would punch out.
Then we would hurry out into the parking
lot where we were quickly divided into two
groups: one group would gasp in the fresh
air, theotber would commence to slowly kill
themselves. yourselves for some lire. smoke and chemi­
cals, and maybe the connection will carry
over into your afterlife... I refrained, but
even now I fight the urge whenever some­
one asks me for a cigarette to say. ·1r you
asked me for bullets for a gun that you were
going to kill yourself with. I wouldn't give
them to you. Why would I help you kill
yourself slowly?'"
I don't mean to antagoni:tc smokers.
I think they should have the right to smoke.
I just wish they had the sense not to. The
chemical addiction is easily broken by nico-
I don't mean to antagonize smokers. I think they have the
right to smoke. I just think they should have the sense not to.
I used to wonder why people smoked
at all. After all. the health risks by now are
painrully obvious. In fact, the surgeon gen­
eral issued a repon about the health risks
a.~ociated with smoking in the mid-I %O's,
So for about 30 years we have been warned.
Why then do I still sec people who have been
warned for three decades smoking? I don't
wonder anymore. As I talk 10 friends who
smoke I understand why they continue.
They are addicted 10 s,noking. I realize that
nicotine is 1hc main chemical component of
the addiction, but there is also • social :L~­
pcct to smoking.
In fact. most of the smokerS I 1alk10
seem to espouse the idea of a common bond
shared by smcikers everywhere. ··1 can just
bum·a cigarette off someone, and then we're,
like, connected by something," said one
smoker I talked to. I had 10 suppress the
urge to say back to them "Ye:,h, you'recon­
nccted by the fact that you are both killing tfoe gum or patches. Granted the cost may
seem prohibitively expensive. But weigh
this shon tcnn cost of about S25 dollars a
package, with the long-term costs of ciga­
rettes at about$15-$20aollarsacanon, and
the astronomical costs associated with che.
motherapy or with oxygen tanks. $25 bucks
for a couple of months doesn't sound so bad.
In the long run, what I say doesn't
matter; 1r1hesurgcon general can't get you
to stop; If even now, after only smoking for
a shon time you are already short of breath
and you find coughs lingering in your chest
for longer than they used to. Look ahead
ten years and think how filthy your lungs
will be then. Think how much !rouble you
will have breathing then. The costs of stop­
ping now don't seem so high, do they? You
arc killing yourself by continuing, and you
don't want that do you.

Pioneer Focus: LC is Home to Brighams
by Kerry Kemper
Playing defense aguinsl the Lewis &
Clark offensive llne can he a very
confusing rnsk. Regardles~ or whnr
side of the line you defend. you will be faced
with the intimiduting 6'4" frame of one of
the Brigham broIhers The only real differ•
tncc between 1hcsc Jden11Cul 1win), is the
number on their jersey.
Crnig nnd Eric Brigham have been a
dnving force of the Lewis & Clark football
program ror 1he pus1 three years. Gradu-
0Ies or local Lnkc Oswego High School,
they will be playing their eighth season 10-
~Ihcr on 1he footbull gridiron.
Following all-s1a1c performances al
Lake Oswego, the Brighams went in differ• cnl directions ofter graduating ln 1992.
Craig wcn1 cas1 10 U.S. Army Ac:ttlemy al
Wc.,1poinI . He played football his fresh•
man season, but decided against re1urning
and lrnnsferred 10 Lewis & Clark. His
i,(lphomore year, he dominnied CFA oppo­
nents, earning second-1cnm all-confcrcncc
honors. 1bc next two yenrs. however. would
be plagued wilh injuries. including n sea­
son-ending unkle inJury Inst season in the
opener versus Simon Fraser Un, vcrsity. The
loss had n mojor impact on the Pioneers'
olTensc. bu, also gave him another year or
eligibdi1y.
Eric also ,·en1ured far from his home
state, joining NCAA Division I-AA pow­
erhouse Boise State. His rre.~hman year, he red-shined for the Broncos. The next
year. he saw limited rime, which con­
vmced him to return 10 Portland und r, n­
ish his playing career al Lewis & Clark.
He saw action at every offcnsivc~linc po­
sition in '94, nnd became the full-time
s11tncr "1 right rnckle last year. His con­
sistent piny led tu honornhlc-mcntion all­
conforcnce.
This season, the duo hopes 10 play
their Jirsl enure season together since
high school. The 1alen1ed pnir nre both
sl3ners for the Pioneers this season und
will add to 1he vast experience that can
be found on Ih1s ycar•s squad. Si1.e and
quickness are also nunbutes the
Bcighnms possess.
