Parking Solution Found Finding a place to park is no problem for Gregory Gorum, but he might find that the rates are a little expensive. Gorum, who was waiting to give a friend a ride, decided to park his late model white Cadillac on campus -literally. He chose the lawn adjacent to the new faculty offices and science building, a choice which brought out the San Jose Police Department. "It's too crowded outside," complained Gorum while sitting atop his car. He then proceeded to have lunchdining on a parking ticket issued by bewildered officers Phil Jarogoza and S. B. Stilwell. The officers had a brief conference and decided to let Gorum go, without desert.

Prescott Charges

Reform . . . ~Key~Lies Inside'' Carlo Prescott, an advisor on prison reform, stated in a speech on the City College campus Wednesday evening, that any reform in the prison system would have to begin with those who run the prisons.

Prescott stated that only 2% of the prison population was educated.

Student Survey by CLP Finds Need For Buses A poll of 1000 students was the catalyst that led to the Board of Trustee's decision to implement an experimental bussing program to San Jose City College, which started 'Feb. 7. The survey, which took place during the week of January 10 and was directed by Armando M. Moreno of the Cooperative Learning Program (CLP), revealed that : • 57 per cent of those surveyed were willing to pay 25 cents per trip; • 52 per cent of those surveyed would make use of bus number two; • 48 per cent of those surveyed would make use of bus number one. During the first week of the five-week program, 174 students used the bus lines to SJCC. The buses ran approximately 213.2 miles that week. According to Richard Goff, assistant superintendent/ business services, the cost of the use of the buses was $60 per · day per bus, or $480 of district tax money for the four day week. Two separate routes are run twice in the morning to City College. One originating in Milpitas runs approximat ely 23 miles through the downtown area to SJCC, and the other runs through east San Jose, through Evergreen, the Almaden-Blossom Hill

Duke Ellington, one of America's most honored musicians, and his orchestra opened the Spring 1972 Community Cultural Series at San Jose City College last night. Ellington has composed more than 1,400 musical works. His devout fans claim the figure is closer to 5,000. No one knows for certain, and Ellington does not say. It is enough for many just to know the composer of such songs as "Satin Doll ," "Sophisticated Lady," "Solitude," "Mood Indigo" , "I Let A Song Go Out of My Heart,'' and others equally as famous, is still composing and loving every moment of it. The Duke is over 70 and prefers not to act it - or show it. -In 1970, Duke Ellington again held ·

Slides Discussion Featured

China ('('Developing ·Socialism Now", Says R.U.'s Greenberg. The Chinese peop'ie are at a stage now, according to Marylou Greenberg of the Revolutionary Union, where they are engaged in" .. . building socialism" and learning the value and necessity of working together and helping each other. Speaking in the campus theater last Thursday, Mrs. Greenberg described her travels through the Peoples Republic of China as a member of an entourage from the R.U. and othe groups, including The Young Lords. Slides Shown Following a brief introduction, Mrs. Greenberg showed a number of' color slides which covered virtually every aspect of Chinese life on the mainland, as it is today. Pictured were workers on both the farms and at the factories, students and professors at a university, police directing traffic, a fac tory militia unit participating in the one-a-week drill, and soldiers working on a farm . The advances in medicine, especially' disease control, and ~!ides of the age old practice of acupuncture, which has aroused much interest in the western world recentky, were also presented. Building Socialism While showing slides of a small farming village, Mrs. Greenberg told of one "strong young man" who decided that rather than team up with the villagers in a neighboring area who were in the same good physical condition as himself. he would go to the village which had mostly old and infirm people and young children. Explaining that most of the people teamed with others whose abilities more or less matct.ed tlieir own. to provide a more equal exchange of services, the Palo Alto " leftist" related that the young man had told her of making his decision after examining th e situation and determining that if he "didn't help these people, who would?" . The village, she said, which was rebuilding itself after natural disaster had struck, got back on its feet again within abou t three years , declining help from the government, and is today held up as an example throughout China "not only of how to expand and develop agriculturally , which is also very important, 6ut as an example of solidarity, and how to build socialism." Mrs. Greenberg also noted one of the negative aspects of the Chinese society today, the practice of separation and di sc rimina t ion of the people fr om minority nationalities.

Following the presentation, questions were taken from the audience by Mrs. Greenberg. At this time three or four of the approximately thirty people left in the audience expressed concern over the apparent lack of concern for personal freedoms and individual rights in the Chinese system. Bangia - Desh After defending China's stand on the Pakistan-India clash, Mrs. Greenberg read an excerpt from the editorial page of a major China newspaper. The difficulty, she argued, as an internal problem. Though the Chinese recognized the suffering of the people in what is now Bangla-Desh, they felt that India was in the wrong to cross the border and aid the Bengla-Desh in ousting the Pakistani

government from East Pakistan. r· The Chinese maintained that India,; interceeded out of private concerns, and not to better the lot of the freedom . fighters. She appeared at a loss to explain a further statement from the audience that there was little difference between In dia's action in this case and the Chinese intervention in the ·Korean Conflict, when Chinese troops crossed the border into~ 1 Korea to aid the North Koreans. However, Pete Stensrud, of Radical Action Movement, the campus organization which sponsored the'l program, stated that the Chinese were in 1 imminent danger of attack by Gen. Douglas MacArthur's ground troops, and that bombs had already been dropped ~ inside China's border.

Three of the schools top athletes were among those honored at a re cent "Banquet of Champions." The February 7th dinner was sponsored by the Santa Clara Valley Sportswriters and Broadcasters in honor of ihe area's foremost athletes from prep to pros. Those chosen represented the Valley's best in their respective sports. Harry Freeman , Roger Maltbie, and J erry Maberry were the athletes deemed tops in their fiends from City ' Co) lege. Roger, an excellent golfer with a fine string of tournament recognition, is now attending Sari Jose State, where his plans include pursuing his golfing career. Harry Freeman, on a full scholarship at UCLA for track, last year won the state championship in the triple jwnp event. Jerry Maberry, the only honored athlete still attending City, has one more semester at school and is looking forward to a fine year on the mound for the , Jaguar baseball nine. Maberry boasts a 1971 season that included a wonloss record of 7-2, with 71 strikeouts and a selection on the Golden Gate Confel'ence's first team. He has been in contact with a pro -scout a nd feels another season should establish him

as a prospect in next year's professional baseball draft.

Th e Jaguar trackmen really put City College on the map at the Athens Invitational Track and Field Meet by putting on the best p~rformance of any Junior College in Northern California. The Jags were led ,by hurdler AI Hall who broke a Northern California Junior College Record by turning in a fantastic 7.3 second 60 yard high hurdle. A new school record was set in the Two Mile Relay by the foursome of Paul Sanchez, Pat Haley, Juan. Ramirex and Mike Hart. Their time was 8:01.6 and good enough for first place. City College also took top honors in the Mile Relay and a third place time in the Sprint Medley of 3:37.8 which broke the old school record set in 1966. The new record holders are Thad Cooper, Lee Potts, Sal Meza and Sergio Reyes. Although coach Bonanno sees the Golden Gate Conference as the "best balanced league in the area" he feels certain that City College will be giving them a run for it this Spring.

JIM OWEN SIGNS FOR BONUS TO DO RANGER MOUND CHORES by Tom Shaw City College s tar athlete, Jim Owen, has signed his first professional baseball contract with the Texas Rangers, for merly the Washington Senators. Terms of the contract were not disclosed, but reportedly called for a " substantial bonus." J im had been their No. 1 draft choice, back in mid-January of this year. He is expected to join the club next Wednesday, at the start of Spr ing traini ng, in Florida. The 6'5", 200 pound a ce first gained recognition as a pitching standout while at Pioneer High School, wher e he a lso s barred on the basketball team. As a result of his efforts on the hardcourt, he a ttended Portland University on a four year scholarship. He spent just one year at P ortland, wher e he compiled a respectable 43 mark on the diamond, and finished the campaign with an excellent Earned Run Average of 2.82. But in Jim's own words he decided to return to San Jose, "Because I wanted to come to City College, 1 gave up a four year scholarship, and I'm happy I did." His return was hailed, not only by John Oldham, City College baseball coach, but hardcour t gener al , P at Dougher ty eagerly awaited the talented youngster .

This pas( winter, J im did some of his best hurling in the P eninsula Winte~ league, an affiliate of the Kansas City Royals. He fees! this is where he gained his initial opportunity. By positng a 4-2 r ecord and a steady 3.29 ERA, major league clubs took notice. In 52 innings, he fanned 51 batters, while his strikeout figures on the semipro circuit are an impressive 103 .in 107 total innings, where he also had single game performances of 17 and 15 strikeout!': According to J im, he will eventually be assigned to Greenville, South Carolina of

the Western Carolina Class A League. In assessing the events of being signed, Jim feels he owes much to his parents, who also encouraged his interest in other areas as well. Asked if he had anticiapted being signed by a major league club, he replied, "Of course, I had been hoping that I would be, but if I hadn't have been drafted, I would' ve tried out for a major league team at a later date. I feel a person should give himself the opportunit to do whatever he wants in life."

33 Classes Cancelled Units, Hours Decrease Threats of wholesale cancellations of classes during the first two weeks of the semester caused some anxious moments for instructors who had fewer enrollments than usual, but statistics released Feb. 16 by the administration indicate that many of those sections were saved. Dr. Gerald Strelitz, assistant superintendent, pointed out that there was not an appreciative difference in number of students, but the number of units and contact hours are decreased. This is just part of the scene experienced each registration day in the men's gymnasium as students · anxiously await a chance to get classes. By the end of the three-day regist r ation period, more than 6,000 men

and women passed through the gym, many of whom could not find the classes they hoped to get. However, there were less students registering than usual forcing department chairman to close 20 classes before the

""Little Murders'' Hits SJCC Jules Feiffer, whom you've come to know and love through many Playboy articles, newspaper and magazine cartoons, also has to his credit, " Little Murders," a two act tragiccomedy which will be presented by the City College Drama Departm en~ on March 23, 24 and 25. . "Little Murders" · has previously played on Broadway and more· sue- . cessfully in London, and more recently been :made into a movie starring ~Hiott Gould and Marcia Rodd. Director Stuart Bennett declined to see the movie however; because in his words "My goal is to use a fresh perspective in every production," and he felt that viewing the movie might ! tend to hinder him in his direction of the play. From auditions held. Feb. 8, 9 and 10, Bennett has selected Lynn McKe~ to play the lead role of AHred. : Supporting McKee will be Marty Ferrero as Carol, ~Bet:k)"' Emery , will play Patsy and Karen Nielsen will ~ ~~<~_ry.

"Students no longer feel they need the mandatory minimum of 12 units in order to be deferred. Also students are finding out uiat many people with bachelor and masters degrees are not _ getting jobs." (New selective service guidelines no longer grant deferments from military d h service to stu ents w o were · the no t a 1readY d eferred m te st d ts S ·

who maintained deferments must take a minimum of 12 units a semester and a total of 30 for an entire year, ineluding summer school.) Because no new deferments ate being issued, many students who would have otherwise applied for deferments are taking fewer than 12 units, Strelitz speculated. Most of the classes cancelled were closed before school started Feb. 7. Twenty classes were closed after registration w·as completed and other 61 were considered "ip danger." However, by the second week, statistics show, an additional 13 classes were cancelled. Forty-seven classes endangered remained open, a relief to many instructors. The total of 33 cancelled classes represented an increase of seven over the Fall 71 semester total of 26. Strelitz pointed out that, although an increase, it was not as great as had been feared. "The real change which surprised us," Strelitz commented, "was that the

patterns are different. Some of the departments affected were the departments with the largest enrollments." Another unusual statistic, Strelitz noted, was the closing of 25 of the 33 classes originally scheduled before 2 p.m. Normally the majority of class cancellations occur in the afternoon. Hardest hit were the English and social science departments with nine and four cancellations respectively. Four psychology and

three physical science courses were also lost. Strelitz said that some teaching adjustments had to be made because of the course closures. The college had planned on hiring enough instructors to fill the equivalent of 14 full time instructors. However, only five of these equivalents were filled. Many full time day instructors were forced to rearrange their schedules. Strelitz pointed out that they

had four options which included instructing another course in their department, taking a course in another depar tment, doing a research project to improve. teaching methods or teaching a night division course. "Most were able to schedule other classes in the day," explained Strelitz .. " About seven submitted instructional projects and about an equal number took" nigbt class~s."

Lab Schedules Abandoned For More Effective Work

6-Times, Thursday, February 24, 1972

Fac.ulty Senate Reviews Changes For Handicapped . Handicap students, and easier mobility on the campus , were the main topics of discussion at last Tuesday's meeting of the faculty senate. Paul Betto, who has been counseling handicapped students, asked the senate to consider a report, which is in the process of being completed, concerning changes for City College to allow for greater mobility for handicaps. Some of these changes include changing the door markings from above the door, to eye-level on the door ;- fixing the door lips on the fh ors of the 300-wing classrooms; and rebuilding some of the restrooms to better facilitate wheel-chair students. Betta suggested that intergrating handicaps into existing classes is better for all involved rather than setting up special classes. He also stated that the college was not set up properly to a ccommodate aged or handicap students. He then commented briefly on some of the things he is working on at the present time. They include classes in remedial reading and writing for deaf adults; career planning for deaf high school seniors; and a series of training workshops with other junior colleges in the area. Other business at the meeting included a discussion of ·a proposal presented to the senate concerning long-term leaves of absence. The proposal, presented by PPPC, asked

by.Pete Moylan For many students, the road towards the completion· of a college degree is a quagmire of financial burdens which often detours and occasionally cuts off access to the journey's end. The path is strewn with former students who fell by the wayside under the pressure of stiff c .mpetition for scholarships and high interest rates of loans. Another roadblock is unemployment, which hovers around six per cent in San Jose. That figure, however, doesn't include the student who is looking for work and is not vn the unemployment roles. Since October 18, some road work has been done by Mrs. Norma Brahe, assistant placement officer, whose daily chores amount to paving the road to a degree for many City College students.

that an instructor · sign a contract to return for one year of service to the college following a long term leave. Some few months previous the senate voted against this proposal, sending it back to Bill Kester 's committee. PPPC, however, again sent it to the senate, hoping for a revote. The senate however voted to confirm their previous action. Senate members stated that an instructor should be given a date in which he must let the college know if he plans to return or not, but should not be forced to sign a contract.

Offering a background in electronics, circui ts, computor and microwave, City College's Electronics Department has departed from the regimented lab type system, generally associated with similar courses offered by other junior colleges in the area. According to Tony Zeppa, one of the instructors, the City College student enrolled in the electronics course, is not held to a strict lab schedule. Under this concept the student can come in the lab, day or evening and work on his or her project with instructors available for help

After the first semester the student is allowed to ChOOse his own project, and professional work is ex. pected from the student. 1 Then a team of electronic specialists from many of the firms in area come in and judge the projects. The lop three students receive a letter of merit from the team or committee, citing him for his outstanding work on his chosen project. Department chairman is Ray Creswell and his assistant is Bill Nash. In. structors include Zeppa, Bill Deem, Ken Muchow, Clyde Herrick, George Ritchie and Jack DeLeone.

student is finding the time to hunt down a job without missing too many classes. Mrs. Brahe has managed to solve that problem for about half of the 600 students who have sought for help. · Afthough finding employment for others is her full time job, it hasn't been too easy as she explains. "Most of the jobs I get are usually people calling in. I can't_get out because I'm a one woman office, but I do manage to get to a few big places like Macy's." Mrs. Brahe took the position replacing a workstudy student who could only work a few hours a week. Since then, the number of applicants had quadrupled and now she handles 25 new applicants a week. "We don't get a great number of jobs, we · aren't like the job bank book at HRD <Human Resources Development agency), but all the jobs that I get I immediately work' on, " Mrs. Brahe states. More than 150 jobs a month are made available to City College students as compared to less than 35 a month during the period when the work-study girl handled the office. "You can't really compare the number of jobs with the number of applicants because when they call here they call the other schools too, ' ' relates Mrs. Brahe. "Ted Robinson from West Valley, he's really on the ball over there, but he's got a whole operation. He has several girls working, full time clerical help, he doesn't do some of the things I have to do." Mrs. Brahe manages to do this without the aid of funds. There is no budget for her office to work with in order to improve the job placement service for students. "The kids really need someone here to look for jobs, though, so my program has to be very, very small. As far as I'm concerned, I have to work with what I have right here," she says, regretfully. Lack of funds, although the most imposing, is not the only problem . Mrs. Brahe faces in her attempts at finding students employment. Sometimes the students and sometimes the

employer presents a problem. I get a lot of sales jobs," she explains, " but students aren't too interested. I'm sorry to say. because the student doesn't look at the board (near her office on which all available jobs are posted) and some of those pay you by the hour, but because it is a sales job, the students don 't read those cards." "Another thing is that some employers require experience which is a little problem there. You know the kids don' t always have the experience they want." Hand in hand with experience goes salary. One employer offered a job for an experienced service station attendent in ,Sunnyvale for $1.65 an hour. The Wage and Salary Administration allows employers to hire students for $1.35 an hour, 30 cents less than the minimum wage law. " I think that is unfair, in fact it's discriminatory, but I can't figure out why. I don' t know the reasoning behind it," Mrs. Brahe says. "If I feel that an employer quotes me a low wage, I let him know right a way if I feel it is unfair," as she did with the gas station owner who later offered a higher salary. About three-fourths of the jobs offered are parttime. But full time jobs often present a problem because of the requirements involved. "Most full time jobs require either an. AA degree or higher type education, something very specific, so it

is kind of hard to place anybody in them," she says. "The problem with the jobs here is that I have to fill them up right away. If I don't have someone with an AA right there I can't fill the job." The parttime jobs are usually filled shortly after they a.re offered, which eliminates many students who cannot be reached easily. Mrs. Brahe enthusiastically goes about finding different ways to locate those jobs, parttime and full time, starting with those who contact her. " There are certain people who call us up all the time. They are kind of like our followers, we might even call them clientele, they call us up for a lot of jobs," she explains.

sidering everybody gets to see the papers." She will even hassle with the empllyers to change their shifts so that a student will be able to worl, Students who seek aid from Mrs. Brahe are required to fill out an application, in which she concerns herself with two main points. "My main concern is experience, " she explains, "because I can hook any kind of experience a person has to any job. If they haven't then I try to work it some other way, but experience is very important to me. "Another concern of mine is how needy the student is for a job. Sometimes a guy can wait a little bit for a job, others need it desperately." Once a student's application is on file, it stays there. She will check that file four or five times a day to make sure she doesn' t forget a student. Her success in finding jobs for students has been excellent in the short time she has fought the problem. But . .. '.

Other than that, it 's scratch and claw and fight with the vast number of unemployed for whatever the employers throw out. Mrs. Brahe will consult the San Jose Mercury in the morning to find jobs and she adds that she has " been doing pretty good con-

already she is looking ahead to find new and better ways to offer her services. "I'm thinking abOut new programs I want to start here, like trying to get more · publicity so we can get more jobs com,ing in," she says. "Maybe I'll even try a volunteer committee of students which could represent themselves as my placement officers in certain areas.
