Borba Pl-esents NeW Involvement Concept For SJCC StUdents

McCloskey Blasts Justice Dept.

Representative Paul N. " Pete" Me Closkey J r. <R-San Mateo) blasted the Nixon administration's Justice Department for selective prosecution. of the law in a question and answer session with approximately 50 persons here Apr . 4. Calling Attorney General John Mitchell a "tragedy," McCloskey said that on the basis of facts admitted by International Telephone and Telegraph ( ITT) in senate investigations, the communications corporation is guilty of a felony. The l lth Califor nia congr essional district representative, quoting from the United States Code, said that any company which has a government contract may not contribute to any political party for political purposes. Violation of the statute carries a penalty of not more than $5,000 or fi ve years in prison. He said that ITT has " about 20" government contracts at the present time. McCloskey questioned why a grand jury has not been convened to prosecute the violations which ITT has openly admitted in the senate hearings. ITT ha s admitted donating approximately $400,000 to the Republican party for its 1972 convention in San Diego. It denied, however , making the donation in order to get a favora ble settlement of an anti-trust suit involving an Eastern insurance company. The former Republican presidential candidate used prosecution of Fathers Deniel and Phillip Berrigan, Roman Catholic priests, as an example of selective pr osecution. The Berr igan brothers were accused of conspiring to kidnap presidential aide Henry Kissinger as a war protest, At press time, only Phillip Berrigan was convicted of a lesser charge of smuggling letters from a federal prison. McCloskey also called for "a massive . public outcry against the bombing of North Vietnam." He said that P resident Nixon is seriously considering escalation of the bombing as a result of increased North Vietnamese military activity. The bulk of the questioning from the late afternoon audience concerned the Vietnam War. McCloskey had just finished taping a television program at KNTV, San Jose, before appearing at City College. McCloskey indicated that the only condition the United States should accept for complete withdr a wal from the Southeast Asian nation is the return of prisoners. " I would accept the seven-point peace plan offered by the North Vietnamese.. last June and get out of Vietnam," Mc!f Closkey responded. " I think we would get the prisoners back. "As long as we continue to support the government of South Vietnam , we won't ~ get the prisoners back," McCloskey explained. McCloskey added that the Nixon administration, in addition to the return of prisoners, requires the maintaining of the Thieu government as a condition for withdrawal. "Nixon is putting the survival of the Saigon regime ahead of the prisoners," McCloskey stated. "Our pride is so great," he added, "we can't afford the fall of the Saigon government. As a result, we fall back on bombing to preserve our pride." McCloskey, who dropped from the 1972 presidential campaign beca use of a lack of funds, attributed patriotism to the fact that North Vi etnamese soldiers, unequipped and untrained, have been able to continue fighting and withstand · the bombing and the military might of the United States. Reacting to a challenge by a member of the audience to his sincerety on the war issue McCloskey said that information he learned in 1967 helped him take an anti-war stand. The questioner pointed out that in 1965 McCloskey volunteered to serve in · Vietnam , that in 1967 he reportedly , supported a war effort against the North f' Koreans to regain possession of the U.s.s. P uebloand, as a member of congress, he voted in favor of the hlilitary draft and a $70.2 billion defense appropriation bill .

In addition to supporting an advanced payment plan to protect students whelcannot continue their education because of delays in processing of checks, VRA also made a recommendation for women U. S. Military veterans attending college may benefit from an improved G. I. educational bill as a result of testimoney of more than 20 former servicemen in Washington, D.C., according to the vice president of City College' s Veterans for Responsible Action. A senate committee, which includes Senators Vance Hartke (D-Ind.) and Allan Cranston (D-Cal. ) is currently . reviewing the education bill and heard the testimony March 23 and 24, Ken· Norman told the TIMES. Norman submitted to the committee a three-page document pointing out the inadequacies of the present G.I. bill. Although not questioning Norman, the committee did question other veterans, who represented many areas of the country, about the problems vets have in completing their education and treatment from the Veterans Administration, the public and institutions. Nor man, the only veteran representing California at the hearings, said that the committee did seem receptive to the problems presented by the veterans, particularly to a recommendation by VRA of a 20 per cent increase in the bill and extension of the allowance from 36 to 48 months. Single veterans presently receive $175 a month for 36 months. Mar ried veterans receive $205 and $230 if they have a child. "Senator Cranston said he would amend his bill to bring it up to 48 months maximum ," Norman reported. " He said the committee had been against the time · increa se until they heard all this testimony. " VRA's document, however, also included a request for $1,000 per year to be payed to the s tudent prior to the first week of each semester to cover tuition, books and other expenses. " Due to the increa sed cost of lving and the higher cost of education and supplies, the student veteran can no longer subsist on the current monthly allowance," the document explained. "This ($1,000) will not be deducted from the monthly allotment provided the student pursue a full time curricula for the nine month academic year," it stated. The purpose of this, Norman sa id, was to prevent students from taking the money and quitting school. VRA ·also r equested the 20 per cent increase as a result of a study by the director of financial aids at Stanford University, Dr. Robert Huff. Huff's study reported that the cost of living 'increased 20 per cent since 1968. The document said that at a cost of living increase rising at five per cent a year would necessitate an automatic annual cost of living increase in the benefits. Thirty-six months of allowance, VRA contends, does not pr ovide enough funds to complete the four-year baccalaureate degree. " The advance of technology combined with overcrowding makes the attainment of a Baccalaureate degree almost impossible in 36 months," the VRA proposal

by Lynne Lajeunesse City Editor A new concept aimed at getting students involved in P rograms outside of the school was presented last Tuesday in the form of the Criminal Justice Review Board. John Broba, Administrative Assistant, in presenting the program to the Student Administrative CoWJcil, stated that the purpose of the Board is to get students involved in the evaluation and inves tigation of existing Community Justice programs. F ifteen task force committees are now being implemented , each consisting of ·two students from each of the involved schools, San Jose State , Santa Clara University, and SJCC. The co~mittees include: ,. Methadone Maintenance • Narcotic Bureau • , Crimin al Jus tice Information Control & Detoxification • Alcoholism Reha bitation Planning Center • Action Mo~el for Combating Juvenile Delinquency • Eastside Drug Center • 601 Diversion • San Jose/ Santa Clara CoWJty Police Records Improvement P rogram • X-MARC <Ex-Convict Modification and Recovery Center ) • Burglary Reduction Program • Day Ca re P rogram San J ose Police Program P lanning P roject • Drug Abuse Coordination Program • ·Alcoholism Prevention & Education • Traffic Commissioner

veterans. " The woman veteran must be afforded full a nd equal benefits to those of the male veteran." VRA charg ed the Vet er ans Administration to stop blanket accreditation of correspondence a nd technical schools that do not give proper instruction at a fair price, adding that on the job training benefits shoUld be increased by 50 per cent to facilitate more employers the opportunity to initiate these programs. Norman earlier had said that the trip to Washington was to state the views of the California veteran, who was in danger of losing most of his benefits as the result of Under the guidence of Santa Clara one senate proposal.

Borba also stated that the Criminal J ustice Review Board will give s tudents a change to get involved in some real commWJity projects, and to have the " power " to make sure the people's tax money is being used correctly. The committee will also be asked to submit suggestions as to how to use the money more effectively, and make recommendations on the entir e efficiency and effectiveness of the entire project. During his. presentations Borba stated that an opportunity such as this " cannot be taken lightly, or pssed up." He urged the CoWJcil to support the Criminal Justice Review Board concept, and. to help get the support of the entire student body. He commented that a student who cares about the way his tax meney is being used, or cares a bout the goings on of the community in which he lives, could not pass off this project without thought. "It will give the students a voice in commWJity affairs, and an opportWJity to find out exactly what the hell is going on," Borba said. He said that students need the power to check into things, making sure the projects are on the level,

and are doing what they are suppose to be doing. While in a conference with the " Times" Borba explained his reasons for presenting the Criminal Justice Review Board. He said that to date the Council ha s taken no concrete legal action, and that t he only proposals that the CoWJcll members are interested in are the ones that they themselves present. He fm:ther stated that for City College to become fully involved in a program such as the Justice Board, is putting SJCC up in the ranks of the college that are known for their involvement. " It will put SJCC back on the map," he stated. Borba continued to explain that while the Justice Board is not yet large enough to involve ALL City College students, it Ia not aimed at one or two " special interest groups.'' He feels that the Criminal Justice Review Board concept will catchon quickly, because of its " endless benefits" to the entire community, both the tax· payers, and the community-at-large. The Justice Board, fWJded by a feder al grant, is a non-partisan apolitical organization. Any student interested in one or more of the many facits of the Justice Board are asked to contact Borba at his office in the Union.

Peoples Lobby Urges Support by Sam Saiu Singer Janis Joplin returned from the grave briefly .March 24 to help promote the " Clean Environment Act, " in the quad area. The late Miss Joplin was presented over closed circuit TV via video-tape, a s part of a program sponsored by the " People's Lobby" in an effor t to gain voter support for an initiative which has been placed on the June 6 ballot (Proposition 9 ) dealing with pollution control measures. Pre-recor ded performances by various " rock" artists were intersper sed with appeals to the electroate to vote for passage of the reform package, and included disclosure of what the " People's Lobby" claims is a secret plan by Standard Oil Company to defeat the Clean Environment Act.

The details of the Standard Oil cam· paign are contained in a document currently being cir culated by the " P eople's Lobby" which was pur· portedly taken from the files of Otto Miller <chairman of the board for Standard Oil of California ) by a con. cerned employee who felt the public should be informed of the oil company'• alleged plot. The Clean Environment Act aeeks to: 1. Stop new offshore- on drilling 2. Str engthen air pollution laws 3. Phase lead from fuel 4. Stop use of DDT and other persistent chlorinated hydrocarbons (dangerous pesticides ) unless voted. on by 4/ 5 of the state legislature 5. Put a five year moratorium on n·uclear power plants to allow thorough investigation of safety and radiation hazards.

Faculty Senate Drops Censure

McGovern Leads

TIMES Poll By Pete Moylan Democratic presiden tial hopeful George McGovern is the choice of 47 per cent of the City College day students to be the next American president according to a poll taken by the TIMES, April 6 - 7·. The South Dakota senator polled 244-of 519 ballots cast in 18 history and government classes, easily defeating Republican Richard Nixon. Nixon, who is seeking his second term as president, received only 18.5 per cent of the vote with 96· to finish a, distant second. Democrats Hubert Humphrey and E dmund Muskie, both considered strong candidates for the Democratic nomination for president, finished a poor third ·and fourth respectively. McGovern 's victory was not unexpected as man y other colleges, including Stanford Universit y most r ecently,

conducted polls with similar results. The poll asked students to choose the candidate of their choice without r egard to party affiliation.

drew his motion of the week before to censure E nglish instr uctor a nd representative-at-lar.g e George Green. Cutler had accused Green of unprofessiona l and unsubstantiated charges against PPPC in the March 14 meeting. The motion to censure was tabled until the 21st. Cutler said it was in his estimated that a censure of Green was perhaps premature and out of order. He said he thought the senate would do better to follow senate procedures by going to the Professional Rights and Responsibilities Committee (PRR). Faculty senate members indicated an uneasiness about voting on a censure motion, Senate Vice President Jim Gray said. " Had he (Cutler) not withdra wn his motion, I was going to motlon to withdraw or reject his motion," Gray told the TIMES. " I felt that in the interest of fair play and objectivity, the senate shouldn't sit as a mock or kangaroo court to decide Green' s guilt or innocense," the sociology instructor commented. Gray said that he per sonally felt t hat Green had groWJds to request an examination of the fWJctions of the committee, but that he had also brought . up personalities. The Apr. 4 motion supported Gray's and Green's contention that some policy should be set for selecting applications for sabbaticals. Green told the senate that a different procedure had to be devised to select applications or that if the present system is used, some substantiation for accepting or rejecting applications should be requir ed. He suggested that rejected applicants should have the courtesy of a reply from PPPC. Green objected to the lack of substantiation used to choose the seven successful applican ts . Nin eteen had

applied. He also said it was difficult for people who were not in a particular field to evaluate the merits of a sabbatical leave application from that field. Another controversy erupted over whether or not the faculty senate bad the authorization to charge PPPC with the project. Cutler argued that PPPC, although a committee appointed by the senate, was, in the case of sabbatical leave applications only, appointed by college president Dr. Otto Roemmich. Roemmich selected PPPC to handle leave applications. Responsibility to . . select the applicants or choose a com· mittee to do so is Roemmich's.

"INSTRUCTIONS TO DEPUTY REGISTRARS; You must remain nonpartisan at all times regardi ng candi d ates and/ or issues. DO NOT take affidavi ts while engaged in political activities. These two sentenc es compris e the very fi rst . general instruct ions that deputy registra rs in this state must adhere to. Without the objectiv ity provided by these by-laws, the registrat ion of voters would quickly degenerate into a political farce. It would appear, however,. that the registra r at the table in the picture above, isn't quite abiding by the rules of • the game. When questioned about the . legality of , distribu ting partisan literatur e from the same table wher e voter affidavits were being taken, a member of the "McGovern for Preside nt" group claimed that all was on the up and up. "We have already checked with the registra r's office, and we were told that it legal to pass out the literatur e and register voters at the same place," he stated. But several other deputy registra rs on this campus expresse d some doubt about that ruling, recalling. their

However, the person to whom they must answer for any wrongdoings is content to overlook the infraction as being unenforceable. Our only advice to those of you who plan to register before tomorrow 's deadline, is not to be intimida ted by any partisan material s at a voter registration table, and to report any "obvious in· fluence" to the Registrars Office immediately.

Jaguars Find Top Of Heap Cluttered

F.i rst-place laurels in the Golden Gate Conference baseball league are fast becoming one big question mark, as the City College team, with an 8-2 record, finds itself sharing the top of the standing s with both Chabot and College of San Mateo who have identical records. Despite victories in the last two of three league encounters, winn ing over Foothill 9-4, and beating City College of San Francisco at home, by a 4-2 margin, the Jaguars wer e narrowly beaten over the weekend by Chabot, 2-1. This set the stage for the three-way tie, as San Mateo solidly thumped the T-Birds of Merritt. In the game against Foothill, played on the losers diamond , Marlow Gonzales, 2-2 in league play, with an earned-run-average of 2.75, pitched a fine game, while first baseman, Mike Rocca slammed two solo home runs. Foothill's losing pitcher, Greg Freeman also gave up key runs-batted-in (RBI) to outfielder Dennis Dungy, ca tcher Dave Slater and

third baseman Carry Riddell With their win over Foothill, the Jagmen kept sole possession of first place, leading their arch rivals Chabot and CSM by one full game. Playing at hom e, in the game against the City College of San Francisco, second ba seman F r a nk Woessner contributed three RBI and Curt Chadwick tallied one, as San Francisco lost 4-2.

The team made a total of 12 hits in this gam e, while right-hander AI Texiera held the visitors to just six hits. Texiera has a 4-3 record and a commendable 1.85 earnedrun-average. These two victories kept the Jagmen all alone, at the top of the league. But, over the weekend, the J aguars moved over and made room for both Chabot and San Mateo, as they lost to the Gladiators of Chabot 2· 1, on the home field. Starting pitcher Marlowe Gonzales took the loss, as he ga ve up a total of seven hits. City College t ook the lead in their half of the third inning, but Chabot ca me back in the top of the league.

Scrutinizes Administration

Board Checks Efficiency A former superintendent of the San Mateo Community College District will be hired by City College to evaluate the efficiency of the administration as a result of board of trustee approval, April 4. Dr. Julio L. Bortolazzo, a free lance consultant from Santa Barbara, was approved to undertake the project for a fee of $4,500. Bortola~za, who was recommended by a 13member ad hoc committee under the quadripartite system, was chosen from a field of five consulting agencies and three individuals. The decision to hire a consultant was a result of a faculty-administration conference held in Los Gatos in May, 1970. " The faculty indicated it would like a real good look at the way the college is organized," Dr. Otto Roemmich , City College president, said October 1, 1971, when the committee was formed. Bortolazzo, according to,

Murdock Blasts lA-B The widespread requirement of English lAlB clearly indicates the superiority of English teachers to Political Science teachers in the art of politics with the colleges, stated hoary-headed Patrick Murdock of the City College History faculty during an interview last week. "There is no rational excuse for separate lA-lB English program. English should be taught in all of the ·Humanities courses," stated Murdock. In relating how English 1A-1B could be integrated into the Humanities courses, Murdock said that students. would be screened as to

· being qualified under the c om bin e d E n g 1i,s h Humanities courses. Those qualified Murdock reported would enter any of the Humanities social sciences or science in sufficient small groups to receive tutoring or instruction in English lA-lB along with the prime subject matter of the course. Murdock also related that the handling of English employs four separate skills-speaking, writing, listening and reading- and that one might argue that a course inJournalism might be more beneficial than taking the present two r equired courses in English 1A or lB.

Santa Clara County Prisons

Overcrowding Causes Poor Conditions Conditions in Santa Clara County jails, which are described as exceedingly poor in a class action law suit brought by the National Lawyers ' Guild, are apparently attributable to one overriding factor. Overcrowding, both in the main jail in San Jose and at outlying facilities (located at Milpitas and Palo Alto) , has been either directly or indirectly responsible for the bulk of adverse conditions that exist in these facilities , according to Elizabeth Cobey. Miss Cobey, who made the8e statements to students in the campus theater in the first of a four-part series put on by the Political Prisoner's Committee, is one of the two Guild attorneys who filed the brief in the federal court of Judge Robert F . Peckham. The second program, scheduled for tomorrow morning in the quad, will deal with the state prison system. Starting time is 10 a.m. The suit seeks to correct conditions in county jails which, according to Miss Cobey, are prevalent in most jails throughout the state. If successful here, she indicated, this case would be used as a precedent for similar action on behalf of prisoners elsewhere in California. Santa Clara County Jail was chosen, she stated, because it is considered by many to be one of the best local detention facilities in the state of California. "Everything that is wrong here," she added, "is more

wrong everywhere else" in the other city and county jails throughout the state. And there is plenty wrong here, according to the action brought by herself and fellow Guild member Donald Sorenson, including: • OVERCROWDING Approximately 700 persons are housed in a facility (main jail) designed to hold a· maximum capacity of 495. This has led to persons being placed in the drunk tank, which is designed for only shortterm incarceration. The drunk tank was described by Miss Cobey as wall to wall people, living in their own filth. The floor is covered with vomit and at times with human excrement which has flowed over the rims of backed-up toilets. . Because of the number of people in the jails, the food is of poor quality, low in nutritional value, high in carbohydrates, unappealing in taste and appearance, and to a· large extent contamined by unsanitary preparation, it was charged. Poor ventilation and inability to exercise properly were also attributed to the overcrowding.

committed an infraction until th~y are reprimanded by the guards. • LEGAL ASSISTANCE - The suit also stated that prisoners are not given adequate access to legal volumes which they may need in order to defend themselves in court or to prepare appeals. The action asks that either a staff of attorneys be available for use by the prisoners, or that an adequate, up to date law library be made available. • REHABILITATIONS - Only 200 of the 1200 male inmates of the minimum security "farm" in Milpitas and only 20 of the 200 women at this same

Elmwood facility are allowed to participate in the "work furlough " program. The suit charges discriminatory selection procedures in administering the program, and claims that there is no reason why all of these people should not be involved in some sort of a rehabilitation or work/ school-furlough program. • CENSORSHIP - All incoming and outgoing mail is inspected, and censored- or completely rejected at will by jail authorities. This practice also comes under fire in the class action suit which J Peckham must rule

on in the near future. Many of these "v'"P'iUillll are the same which triggered hunger work-stoppage strikes have plagued the facility in past weeks, cording to the petite barrister, was called appriase the strikers of legal rights in the strike situation. Miss Cobey and Sorensoo have subsequently filed an injunction, also in Peckham's court, to 1 indiscriminate transfers of persons in Elmwood to other jails in the Bay Area. Peckham is expected to render a decision in the next two or three weeks.

• DISCIPLINE Irregular disciplinary procedures were also cited as a major grievance of inmates. The rules are very flexible, and those which do exist are not posted, so the prisoners do not know that they have
