A poem by San Jose City College student Dennis Pavan entitled "Junction" has been accept ed by " MERIDIAN'S" for publication next month.
A freeze was enact ed last Tuesd ay on all nonbu dgete d appro priati ons and expen diture s by Stude nt Coun cil until Assoc iated Stude nt Body financ ial staus is determ ined. The original motio n was to suspe nd all expen diture s, hut Ste~e Hugh es made an amendmen t which exclu des budge ted items and only nonbu dgete d expen ses are frozen .
The work was first seen in the Fall '70 issue of " Prome thean, " which is · published by students of City College. Pavan, a sociology major, recently received a letter from "MER IDIAN'S" indicating that his poetry had been found accepta ble for publication by them in the forthcoming edition of their "Anthology of Modern Poetry," and inviting him to submit additional materi al for consideration.
Council passed the amendment but failed the motion .

The 20-year-old bard related that under the conditions of his agreem ent with the Los Angeles based publication, lie is to receive · the equivalent of a 10 per cent royalty from this work. "Junction" was written in free verse style, and composed from impressions of a walk ·in downtown San Jose, according to the author.
At Thurs days meetin g, the interpret ation of the freeze seemed varied among the council members. Virginia Sandoval expressed that her understanding was that the freeze was to last one week, yet Ralph Blom, vic-e preside nt, stated the freeze was to last until council is given an accurate account of their financial state.

In view of the impending Nov. 6 peace march in San Francisco, it appears to be a good time to take a look at American involvement and attitudes toward war. Perhaps the most penetrating and, in some ways, most extraordinary picture of this , is that presented by Bob Dylan in his lengthy folk-ballad, "With God on Our Side." In this work Dylan considers the generally accepted belief that this nation cannot lose any war, because God is on ." our side." Undoubtedly , every warring nation believes that its own cause is just, but according to Dylan, the U.S., due to its many victories (?) has fallen into the trap of believing that it has divine g_uidanc~.
Not only does the Lord help us defeat the English twice, he gives the cavalry free reign to murder, butcher , and massacre the . "heathens" who inhabited this vast continent before it was "civilized" by the white man. God does not merely guide our hand in malting war, he also protects that most valuable of all American assets, the dollar. On every piece of currency and stamped into the "coins of the realm" is the transcription, "In God we trust." It is almost as if the federal government has adopted the Creator as its mascot. In his stanza dealing with the second world war, Dylan states that when that conflagration" came to an end, we forgave the Germans and we were friends. Though

that "If God's on our side, He'll stop the next war.". It is precisely that wh1ch we see going on around us right now in the growing anti-war sentiment that is overtaking this country. Whether Dylan is a prophet, or an instigator, or merely a good guesser, is known only to him , however, it does appear that this war at least will be stopped. The war is not yet d~d as an issue, and cannot become so until every single American trooper has been returned to our shore. Whenever the end does arrive, it will have arrived too late. Many years, and many lives too late. Sam M. Saiu Editor in Chief

Here, we not only have the help.of God in defeating the Nazis, those perpetrators of hideous deeds and arrogant makers of war, we also, by virtue of signing a treaty, have the authority to transfer some of God~s protection over to our new friends. Absurd as all .this may seem, it is unfortunate that a number of peo ple do see things in exactly this light. They do consider God, or the Christian God at any rate, to be the property of the American people. Dylan leaves us on a note of hope, however, as he concludes with the thought

CSM, DVC Vi cto rs
Two losses last week, a 8- 5 defeat by Diablo Valley .College <DVC) and a 5 • 4 loss to College of San Mateo <CSM>, moved the Jag water polo squad down into fourth p)a~e in J)1e <;onfe~ellCF. I tn ~yHe- gt .t~f1i,r lo'Y. standing, they are ranked number one in the league in offense and number two in defense. This means that the Jags have scored the greates t number of goals of any team in the Golden Gate Confere nce and, next to Foothil l College , allowed fewer goals to be scored against them. Besices the two conference games, City College played a non-conference game last 'week with West Valley College CWVC>. This game resulted in an 18 - 8 win for the Jags. The first game, against DVC, was played in the Diablo pool Wedne sday afternoon. The DVC Vikings caught the Jaguar seven sleeping in the first quarter and amasse d four goals while keeping City College scoreless. Bob P inkham became the first Jag to get a point when he scored early in the second period on a free penalty throw taken due to ten Viking team fouls. Tony Martinez scored number two on a "break away'' with an " overha nd shot. " Allan Jenkins, who was fouled while driving inside the two yard zone in front of the cage, scored the third goal for the City College, seven with a free penal~y throw. Pinkham picked up one more with an "RB (rear baCk) shot" and further closed the gap. At the end of the period, the Vikings, with five goals, lead by one point.
only one of the two extra point kicks, and the twopoint play following the third score failed, so the Jags held a 19-point lead. Both teams were plagued by an unusual number of penalties, but the 108 yards the Jaguar s gave away obviously hind~red them the most. Accordmg to head coach, Jim Wheelehan, "We made too many mistakes. On crucial third down plays, we appeare d to have held them, only to have a penalty called to give them a first down." • Wheelehan termed the loss "disappointing, " because of the effect it will have on the Jags' title hopes. A victory over Laney would have kept the Jags only one game behind undefe ated San Mateo and Chabot, who clash next week. Now however, the Jaguars slip back into the pack of averag e teams with 2 - 2 marks, where they don't belong. Laney found itself trailing in every statistical department except the score.

" How can I avoid the draft?" is one of the most often and predictable questions asked of the new City College draft counselor. According to Ho~ard B. Spivak, West Val_ley Jun ior College s tudent, the maJonty of students who come to him for ad_vice are conscientious objectors , whether they are aware of it or not. Spivak, who received 48 hours of training -- eight hours on Saturday and Sunday for three weeks-- admits that if a· City College student has a real "tough problem" I send them to another counselor who has more experience than -I have. Hired as a tutor by the Cooperative Learning Program, Spivak says that in the past two weeks - since he was hired he has counselled approximately 40 students and expects the work load to increase as City College students in the draft age become aware of his office,

(cont. from page 1) the bill. SHARE then received a letter from the governor's office which stated that Reagan would assuredly veto the bill unless the funds were appropriated from some place else, according to Solano. The some place else turned out to be the Miller-Unruh reading program, a· program in which extra teachers are placed into elementary schools to lower class sizes and to help with reading problems. Cost effectiveness played a big part in getting approval of the legislature and the governor's educational consultants to take money out of the Miller-Unruh program. Allan Post, an impartial economic analyst, said that the Miller-Unruh teachers program had 76 per cent of its children fail to meet the minimum objective which was one year's growth for one year's instruction, Solano related. Solano also stated that the $88 million program failed to document its ef-· fectiyeness. " We designed a formula so that not one teacher would be lost as a result of taking the money, " Solano said. "Basically what we said is that Miller-Unruh ' teachers are given, or a portion of them are, scholarships to take courses for credit, wh~le other teachers have to pay to go back. So we'll take away the

Moreno, director of CLP feels. "Now, how do you put pressure on the Moreno says the governor b as stated that due to overcrowding in state governor?" Moreno asked. " We don't colleges, EOP funds must be know. The senators and assemblymen redistributed to community colleges in order to relieve the problem. "Well that's not so," Moreno attacks. "They dropped the EOP funds at the state college level and then they say the community colleges pick it up."
which is located in the Student Health Center. One factor facing a student if he goes to the local draft board for advice is the fact that the rules and regulations are not gone over by someone who has the interest of the student at heart. " Rather the rules and regulations are too often given out by clerks or . the executive secretary of the draft board," Spivak related. Clerks and secretaries of the draft board, according to Spivak, could care less and " in their role in working for the government, they just add to the confusion of governmental red tape and bureaucracy that is prevelent today," he commented. Therefore, Spivak reasons that he and other draft counselors with their training and the ability to pass a student alOng with more difficult questions to more experienced counselors, know more about the draft rules, laws and regulations. " We are constantly learning

by researching the books and laws which_ govern and which, if not interpreted right, can send a student on his way to the Army," Spivak stated. Spivak in talking about the CO's who have completed two years of menial work, says that he feels that these people <the COs) should be awarded the same benefits given to veterans who have completed two years of service. "After all " he remarked "the conscientious ~bjector has ~erved his country by working in VISTA and in the Peace Corps or some other menial work." He also commented that the CO is recognized by his peers more readily today than they were five years ago-- the stigma is n.o longer there he remarked. Spivak's hours in the Student Health Center are from 9 - 11 a.m. Monday, Wednesday and Friday; Tuesday and Thursday, 9- noon; and from 3 to 4 p.m. Tuesday and Wednesday.

look great to their constituents because they say they are backing it up, but the governor blue penciled it. " "Everybody is passing the buck as to who is doing the cutting " Moreno said "and . ~hen it comes 'right down t~ overndmg vetoes they either don't show up for the voting or they vote the other way." . Moreno feels that somewhere along the line there will have to be public pressure or student pressure in Sacramento to make sure that someone listens to the students side of it. But Moreno won't.give in to the $51 000 .' cut in funds. " Instead of cutting down from 257 tutors (Spring, 1971 total) to lets say 150 tutors, we simply say keep providing services for as many students as possible," he explained. " We have set a maximum of 10 hours per week a tutor can work." Formerly, a student culd be paid for 15 hours a week. " Pne of the things that we found out is that many students need just a little ·money to get by. If they can pick up a part time job they can make it through school," Moreno said.
Seminar Introduces Learning Theory (cont. from page 1) important how a n individual learns as long as he learns ?" PROGRAM EFFECTED Several departments on campus have a.lready adopted s ome of the new learning methods, with mixed reactions coming from onlooking faculty members. The electronics department is completely eliminating the normal curve system of grading a s part of their new modular system. "We are primarily an employment oriented department, and will be concentrating on prospective levels of required employe( s achievement rather than grading on the curve," said Ray Creswell, electronics instructor . An employer is going to expect a certain amount of work to be
achieved with a specific accuracy, a nd we want to prepare these students to meet that level," he added. A seminar will be held soon to explain the new concepts to City College faculty members on a volunteer basis. Participants of the student seminar were skeptical about the effectiveness of a non-mandatory meeting. " The teachers that need to come the most probably won't," concluded the group. Chadbourne encourages tutors to a sk questions of teachers about specific objectives their tutees are required to meet, criterion reference testing and ' postponement of finals. " If the students complain enough, these changes will come, " Chadbourne concluded.
