Reagan Proposal

On November 6, the people of California will decide the fate of the controversial Reagan Tax Initiative. The issue, Proposition 1, has been brought to a vote as a result of an initiative petition signed by almost 750,000 Californians.

$620,000,000 in first year to $1,366,000,000 in fourth year and increasing thereafter, with probable substantial offsetting cost and tax increases to local government. The ~ i niti ative provision exempting certain low income persons from income taxes and granting a one-time 20% credit on 1973 income taxes for all taxpayers has been accomplished by legislation passed August 23, 1973, granting low income persons exemptions and granting others a 1973 tax credit ranging from 20 to 35~ GENERAL ANALYSIS BY THE LEGISLATIVE COUNSEL A " Yes" vote is a vote to restrict the . taxing and spending powers of the state and to limit the taxing powers of cities, counties, and other local governmental agencies. A "No" vote is a vote to continue the present constitutional and statuatory provisions regulating taxation and spending. ARGUMENT IN FAVOR OF PROPOSITION I Last spring, hundreds of thousands of voters signed petitions to put Proposition 1 on the ballot. Only then, did the legislature act to give back at least 20%of 1973 income taxes and exempt individuals with incomes of $4,000 per year or less, and families with an $8,000 income, or less, from income taxes, as required by the Proposition.

In addition to haircuts, manicures were also performed. When Danny Fewell first saw the manicuring equipment, he "thought it would hurt", but prompted to go through with it, he concluded that "It doesn't even hurt. It's worth it." The guest patron of the day was Mr. Murguia, President of the College. After receiving a modest trim, he said, "It was a pleasure. I was glad to be a part of their day." There were no set fees for services performed during Open Haircut Day; patrons were asked to make a donation of 25 cents. Instructor Shirley Silveria said that she was pleased with the number of partici~ants and with their reactions, and announced that the Cosmetology Club is able to add $43.00 to its fund as a result of the donations. The next Open Haircut Day is scheduled for some time in the Spring.

Dave Goll examines the 1973 World Series, and its effect on the national pastime. On the editorial page, Times Opinion looks into the sparse turnout at this years' Blood Drive, and also the deteriorating environment of San Jose.

Now, it is up to the voters to put these cuts into the Constitution, place a lid on local property taxes, give themselves an on - going income tax cut, and provide a safe, reasonable restraint on the overall growth of the state tax burden, by voting YES on Proposition 1. SUMMARY: The state tax burden on Californians is still much too heavy. Yet those who oppose this Proposition want to keep their blank check authority over taxes. The time has come for the people themselves to curb the growth rate of state taxes. A YES vote on Proposition 1 will do just that, while providing for normal growth and reasonable state needs. ARGUMENT AGAINST PROPOSITION 1 The offer of reduced taxes by imposing expenditur e limitations is a false promise. Tax rates and expenditure

ceilings tried elsewhere in the country have meant deteriorating public services and more costly, inequitable methods of financing state and l.ocal ~o':e~m~nt. Californians should reJect this mitlative. Through their taxes, Californians buy services : education, law enforcement, highways , parks and s~ial services. While the proponents claim that under the initiative these services will not be cut their projections are based on past tre~ds and questionable assumptions about future growth. CONCLUSION: This measure would place in the Constitution an extremely complicated system limiting the ability of elec~ed representatives to respond to .changmg economic conditions and changmg needs for services. Complex tax legislation should be the subject of statute enacted by the legislat~e ..It should not be frozen into our ConstitutiOn.

By Charlotte Stone burg . The prime need of SJCC students With children, is a day care facility on campus. The present facility on Moorpark is a co - op. This means that the student parent must take time from herI his studies to participate and aid the nursery school teachers. The Board of Trustees does not want to take on the day care responsibility because it is a financial burden without federal funding; yet many of the studentparents, who have their children at the center are on welfare. There is also a problem of spac~he day care rooms are shared with the church's Sunda y school. At the approach of Friday the teachers look forward with dread to storing six rooms of equipment into one. Monday the process is reversed; they take all that was in one room and distribute it into the other five. In an interview with Ms. Varner Director, and an aide Pam Thompson,

they stated that because many student -. parents are not accepting their share of the responsibility with the co-op, a fulltime teacher will be hired. Therefore, the amount paid each month for child care will be increased. The children need adequate supervision but many parents still think the center is a babysitting service and not a co-op ; the children's growth and development is just as hampered as is the education of their parents. Without proper laboratory facilities on campus, participants in the nursery school_ program cannot devote some three hundred required hours to a nursery school before graduation. A day care center that is sufficiently staffed will enable the student-parents to continue their education and give them time for study. If the center were on campus, a co-op would not be required and the students education would not suffer.

Drop - In Center. Helps Stude nts City College's Drop-In Center has student aids, interns from San Jose State University, and counselors on duty to listen to all types of problems.

Dear Editor :

Students in California's wtiversities and community colleges should be especially active in the campaign to defeat Governor Reagan's Expenditure Limitation _Initiative (Proposition One, Special 6, · November Election) because it will most certainly result in a massive increase in tuition - and/ or fees. Proposition One limits state expenditu_re to a declining percentage of the of incomes personal Californians. This limit drops one · tenth of one percent each year until _ (1979-80), when legislature, by a two thirds vote, has the option of stopping the decline. · . To make the scheme seem .. ·plausible, Governor Reagan • accumulated a huge state budaet surplus, (larded by a sales tax increase), so the .inevitable cutback in "bare ··· bones" state services wouldn't be felt for several years down the road. By that time, according to the plan Governor Reagan would have been sainted as the Savior of the taxpayers and elected President. But Reagan's economist 100fed. As a result of a series of. miscalculations, the day of reconing will come -· not in 1977·78 - but next year. According to the legislative of passage ~ Analyst, Proposition One will result in a $631 million cut in 1974-75 ' atate budget alone. This would mean approximately a quarter reduction in the state operations portion of the budget. A major share of that part of the budget goes to education.

As we know, Governor Reagan has been a longtime foe of tuition free education. Quite deliberately , Proposition One exempts tuition , fees and other charges from the expenditure legislation. Thus, future legislations will be forced to impose stiff university and college tuition beach and park fees, etc., to balance the budget. But students (and their parents) won't be the only Californians who will feel the brunt of Proposition One cutbacks. Senior citizens, renters, disabled, and disadvantaged are also especially vulnerable. Passage of Proposition One will inevitably lead to an increase in local property and sales tax. The net effect of the measure is to shift the total tax burden from the wealthy to the middle and low income tax payers. It's no wonder the Proposition One campaign is headed by a "Committee of Millionaires" and supported by the business industry sponsored California Taxpayers Association. It is interesting to note that several economists who helped frame Reagan's tax advise also initiative on Nixon President economic policy. Hence I suggest the following slogan accurately summarized the of valadity economic Reagan'~ Governor initiative. " PROPOSITION 1 - from the folks who brought you Phase IV." Sincerely, Senator Alfred E . Alquist· San Jose

Everyone should get involved and support their student government, by buying a student body card, Dario to according Castelblanco, director of academic affairs at San Jose City College.

" And loans are available to students for books, ASB cards a nd emergency expenses with no interest charge,:· he added. Castelblanco listed some of the sports related activities supported by student fees as : tickets and concessions at home games; meals and lodging for the participants in out · of • town sport and a thletic events; music for the Pep band; music for the song girls; and material for the costumes of the song girls and cheer leaders.

grey. Looking out of the window toward the football field, the trees start to fade into the smog at about 100 yards. The fence around the tennis courts cannot be seen. Generally, one does not breathe what one can see. But what can one do when the ' air is practically opaque? About 20 years ago, a smog control board was formed in Los Angeles, the function of which was to determine what could be done about the smog problem which was grow!ng worse with every passmg day . According to some residents there, the only realistic function performed by that group was to inform their citizens when the smog level was too high for human survival. "The strong surface in· version -· a layer of hot air above the valley ·· clamped an invisible lid on the air shed and a lack of wind contributed to one of the year 's worst visibility episodes." The above paragraph has been seen in two different papers, 440 miles apart and 25 years apart in time. The two papers were the Los Angeles Times, and the San Jose Mercury. The pattern has been set for us in Los Angeles. And so far, we have followed this pattern to the letter. We can continue this course and sound the alarm when the smog gets too thick, or we can take a different, more positive approach and attack the problem at the source. Whatever we do, we had better do it now.

Since time began, people have always had many hangups about sex, and consequently, are u_nha~py with the marriage s1tuat10n in which they find them· selves. Even with the "New Morals" and so called "Liberated" attitudes which lead them to setting up wi~ho~t housekeeping marriage, they find 1t difficult to cope with what they feel is expected of them. Since the 1920's, the pendulum has made a swing from a large and varied sexual activity, and not talking ab6ut anything, to a large and varied sexual activity, and trying to be very frank about everything. In the middle of the pendulum 's swing, an almost victorian attitude was predominant. But, throughout these seemingly learning experiences, I do not believe that, by in large, we have learned what we need to know about our sex /

Is the re such certainty in the future that , this type of precaution-seems unrealistic? There can be no question of Registration convenience. and donations were performed here on campus. How then, did the campus prepare? Did the drive lack publicity? The TIMES could have printed a full story covering the event instead of merely mentioning its time and location. Should there have been more posters, and representa tives sent to speak in individual classes?

Did people need more advanced notice of the drive in order to ar range a time in their hectic schedules when they could participate?

areas of the budget were reduced because of an expected drop in payment of student body fees. For in· stance, meal allowance was $2 last semester, and $1.50 this semester. "Funds are also allotted to the Drama department and ' Music department for their productions, and an ASB card allows students free or reduced admissions, and an ASB card allows students free or reduced admissions to all of their programs," he said. The director pointed out that in a ddition to free admission to all athletic home and away games and other SJCC activities, m a ny com m unity events and movie theaters have reduced prices for holder s of a student body card. Money collected from the sale of Student Activity Cards is spent only on activities and projects directly rela ted to the students at SJCC, Castelblanco noted.

By LAURA SLOTHOWER A bit of pre - Halloween magic was the treat for SJCC students when the Anderson Magic Company performed here Tuesday , Oct. 16. The Anderson Magic Company consists of Harry Anderson and Allison , his wife of three months. Harry and Allison recently finished three years with the Ashland Shakesperian Festival and started the tour in the fall. The show consisted of rope tricks , disappearing coin tricks , handkerchief tricks and a mind- reading act. For the grand finale , Harry caught a bullet in his teeth . The show was 'pappered with vaudevillian patter and members of the audience were asked to inspect the various props to .see if they were "fake." In the tradition of minstrels and jesters, the Andersons go from town to town, performing and passing the hat. They live in their caravan , a black pickup truck with a camper attached . Although not charging anything, Harry said they average $75 a show. " It's surprising- it's more than you might expect" explained the articulate magician. "Hat · passing is associated with spare changing. It's not considered a high art form, and as a result we have little competition. "I do Renaissance magic because modern magic is some guy in a tuxedo and lots of paint and glitter and told Harry plastic .", reporters. "I just can't work with plastic as a material. That leaves wood , and wooden effects are very old. " I think of myself less of a magician than a minstrel. Magic is the media, theater is the art. " Harry has been practicing

magic all his life . His childhood interests in the subject was reinforced when his fam ily moved to Hollywood and he was introduced to some of the vaudeville magicians. " I met a lot of people and they kept my interest up," he said. Harry won a scholarship to Berkeley but stayed only six days as they did not offer any courses in his major, which was magic . From there he went to work at Disneyland where he was Goofy literally. After that he went to the Shakesperian Festival where he met Allison, who was a technician and costume designer. "Our particular magic is illus ion. Th ings seem to vanish, creating an illusion," verbalized Harry . In any discussion of magic, black magic and Satanism. inevitably arise. Of them he said: " Black magic is a kind of ceremony .. .it can be put with Catholicism or any religion. The ol)ly difference is the ceremonies. Black magic ceremonies use drugs, murder , . .Christian ceremon i es in volve benevolence and charity, but also abstinence and witnessing . I think the ideal thing is for a person to

choose his ceremomes .:' "Satan is a form of the colQr black , an absen ce of reflection , just as God is the color gold an d nature silv] (in al chemical terms.) pr act i cin " Most Christians are generous an warmhearted while most Satanists are egomaniacs or burned out or both .. .Antqn LaVey is an ass, as coincidently, most Satan is i s · are. " Harry himself is a mixtuie of alchemist, Kabalist, and Christian. " The Kabala is the wisdom of the ancieht Hebrews . The Kabalis t believes we were created through a Divine Will, and Man is a reflection of that Divine Will. The limits of the Will are unknown ." Magicians could easily qualify . as an endangered species, as there are only 8,000 of them in the U.S. For the future Harry sees opening a magic shop or something more secure than his present life. "This life is all right when you're young . . .you see some people, like Chuck Berry, still giving concerts, but it doesn't look right . You wonder why ," he said. " But whatever I do, it will have something to do with magic."

World Series One to Forget

.~

By DaveGoll Cleon Jones said the Mets would win because the National League was far superior. But the Mets really had no business being in the World Series. Dick Williams announced to his players, right in the middle of the Fall Classic, that he was about to resign. What kind of a manager would pull a dwnb stunt like that? Kindly Char lie Finley threatens to destroy the career of an obscure utility infielder, a guy who hardly ever played. Senility must be catching up with the old mule. And the list goes on and on. The death threat against Reggie Jackson. Willie Mays a pathetic spectacle, tripping over his own feet. The 1973 World Series, while having a happy outcome, was a nything but baseball at its best. The Grand Old Game would do well to forget it ever happened. Who .Needs P ublicity? Any spor t certainly strives for the notoriety of exciting games , controversial plays, and a little spicy action on, and off, the field. But this season's big finale provided baseball with all the wrong kinds of publicity. I must admit that last year, in the Oakland - Cincy series, Charlie Finley's contagious enthusiasm was somewhat refreshing. Most owners are the type that seem much more worried ~bout how well their washing < machine subsidiary is doing instead of going out to cheer on their team. But it didn't take long to figure out why the Chicago business tycoon was out there, all decked out in green and gold, waving an A's pennant. Finley is the world's biggest HAM. Charlie 0. was seemingly always around, the games, the interviews, the celebrations, etc. And always was hogging the attention. No doubt the A's are where they are because of the old, white -haired gent. Finley is a shrewd judge of diamond talent, picks up journeymen players when the team needs a lift in the stretch run . Many neither' are owners aggressive nor interested enough to go out and get what they need. He can also be credited with bringing innovations to liven up the tired, old national pastime. Colorful uniforms have now sprouted up all over the major leagues, from the California gold to Atlanta's tulips. Just as with all inventors, at first

laughted at, later universally acclaimed. Mr. Finley's trouble is that he doesn't know when to let up. Getting involved in your thing. one is team Dominating, bullying, and meddling is quite another. To save him further embarrassment, and the players' and fans' sanity, he should sell the Oakland franchise this winter, to a local group, but anything to get C.F . out of baseball. Enough about Tragedy No. 1. Mets N.L.'s Best? No way . All of Curt Gowdy's propaganda couldn't convince me of that. Cincinnati will always be a mystery~ Now a team of that calibre was defeated by New York is baffling. The only answer is that Mets had that intangible known as spirit; "We Believe," and all that jazz. Certainly the Mets' pitching was the determining factor you could put your finger on. Tom Seaver, although a bit overrated, is still one of the best. 23 -year old Jon Matlack is the Mets bright hope for tomorrow, today. Tug McGraw is the Rollie Fingers of the N.L. And Jerry Koosman is another Mr. Dependable. But when you get to the hitting, there just ain't much to talk about. John Milner, Wayne Garrett, and Rusty Staub are supposedly the big guns. More like pop guns. Even though the New Yorkers had two chances last week - end to wrap - up the world championship, the offense could only squeak out three runs. The sensational pitching went into a mini slump, so it was good-bye Mets. While this series was not dull, still an A's match - up with Cincy, L.A., the Giants, or even the Pirates would have provided a better played seven games. The Mets possessed the worst record ever for a World Series participant, and would have finished fifth in the N.L. West. Incredible. No matter who you were pulling for, the best team did win. If the Kiddie corps of Yogi Berra had gone all the way, they say it would be a miracle. I'd agree. I'd also say it would be a rather embarrassing slap in the face to the playoff system, when a relatively weak squad like N.Y . could sneak in. So Long Dick(s) Well, the era of world championships may have ended for the A's , on Sunday, just as they began their '73

Dick Manager reign. Williams , reaching his F.T.L. (Finley Toleran.ce Level) bid his world champs adieu, for the greener pastures of either Pittsburgh or New York . (What a choice). Dependable Dick Green, second baseman, also quit after winning a second straight fall classic. Neither must be able to stand suc.... cess. Williams, only the second manager having resigned after a Series victory, stated it had nothing to do with the old meddling mule. C'mon, Dick. Williams is in the prime of his illustrous career, and he just quits a team a fter they gave him back - to - back world titles? He added that he only sees his family four months out of the year. Does he think he'll see any more of them when he manages the Yankees or Pirates? Williams resides in Florida. Many of the A's are still puzzling over why their skipper r elated to them in the middle of World Series excitement that he is excitement that he is abandoning them . Its bound to hurt their performance. Maybe he figured Finley was getting too much publicity. Nevertheless, it just won't be the same next season. Most of the talent will still be there, I hope. But who'll shield the players from the owner? Perhaps F rank Robinson would be a good choice. Even Sherman Lollar. Anything but Ted Williams. As for Willie Mays, I said he should have retired when the Giants traded him to New York. Instead of going out in all the glory that should be accorded him, fans will a lso remember a stwnbling 42 - year old man, tripping over second base, misplaying balls in center field. And for what ? S houldn't his dignity mean a little bit more to him than two - years salary, money he he really didn 't need . V. Mays' reputation suffered a little as a result. Many people feel this way about the 70th World Series. The fun seemed to be out of it. Even Joe Rudi was heard to say, "this year we're just here for the money." That's pretty sad I'd say. How about next year , instead of bothering to actually go out and play the games, they could just feed all the vital statistics into a computer , and it could be decided fair and square, without human effor, the modern way. After that, the

Harriers Champs? This afternoon the City College Cross Country Team, will try to clinch, the . Golden Gate Conference in a · dual meet, against rivals Laney and Chabot, at Crystal Springs in San Mateo, at 3:30 p.m. The J aguars can clinch it, only if the College of San Mateo can beat second place, Diablo Valley College, just before the Jags take the field. The Purple Gang, not only will go after another Conference Championship, but will try for their 8th and 9th straight victories; and an impressive se cond place, standing to improve upon in the Large Division, of the State. This is the first year Cross Country has been rated, and the team can only hope to prove what the rest of Northern California, already knows, and that of course is the Jags are nwnber one. Today's dual meet and next Friday, November 4th, against San Mateo, will end this season. The Jags, in addition, today and next Friday, will get a good chance to warm up, as they meet at San Mateo's home course, Crystal Springs, site of the Northern California Finals, and the State Finals, Saturday, November, 10, and Saturday, November 17, respectively. Last Thursday, October 18th, the team smi.red a poor City College of San Francisco team , by a final 15-50, in the Easy Bay, at Coyote Hills Regional Park, in Newark , on a 4.3 mile course. In an easy win, the team entered seven men , in the head to head meet against the Rams' seven, and with the Jags taking the first s ven places. The Cindermen were led by Gary ''anchez, in a time of 22 :45;

Kaeding Takes Second As Season Nears End -

Roy Smith , of British Columbia, Canada, held off Howard Kaeding for the 100A-main at Altamont lap Speedway last Sunday afternoon in the third race of the Golden State Classic open competition series, before a crowd of some 1,700 race fans. The A-main started with an accident on lap one, in turn three . De Wayne Woodward spun, and Bobby Baker ran into him. Both cars slid into the wall. Baker dropped out, but seven laps later he returned, driving Pat Sullivan's car. Woodward stayed in, but it took two laps under the yellow flag to get his car out of the wreck. On lap 11 , Ed Hopper spun and hit the wall on the back stretch. Ed was all right but his car wasn't. He dropped out. By this time, Smith, who started seventh on the grid, and Lloyd Beard , who started third, were having a good battle . for the lead. Smith, however, got the edge, and started to expand . it. With 23 laps down, Roland Wlodyka and Johnny Brazil got tied up in turn four, bringing out the first red flag of the race. ·Both men were all right. Ed Hopper came in again when the race was under way ; he was 14 laps down. Howard Kaeding and Burt Foland, driving a sprint car , were having one helluva battle for the eighth and ninth spots at this point, Folund having the edge for a while. At the end of 30 laps, Johnny Pearson, trying to pass Dave Bowling on the mside, got pusbedJnto the tires linin~ the infield. His rear - engmed machine ran over the tires, ripping the bottom off of the radiator, and back onto the track, typing up with Bowling's car, bringing out the second red flag. Everett Edlund and Terry Chalker squeezed by _the wreck, just missing the two. Bowling got John Stewart's car, and Pearson took Mike Andresta's car. They came in, a lap down from the others. With 36laps out of the way, Hopper dropped out with car troubles. Two lafs later, Baker hi the wal in turn four. He dr opped out of the race. J ohnny Brazil re -entered the race at 48laps, and Terry Chalker dropped out. At this point, Lloyd Beard, driving being was second, challenged by Foland in his

sprint car, who was being challenged by Kaeding, who was followed closely by Edlund. The r ace fo r positions three, four, and five was tight. Completing 58 laps, Johnny Brazil spun out and dropped, · bringing out another yellow flag . Foland spun in turn two, and lost his exhaust pipe in turn three after 64 laps, causing the yellow flag to come out. This put him back in fifth place. Edlund had dropped to sixth, and when the race was started again, the two put on a very good battle, which ended when Edlund got by Foland on lap 90.

Up in front of these two was the race between Gerry McClees, who worked his way up to second place from eighth on the grid, Beard, who was now third, and Kaeding. Kaeding got tricky and bwnped Beard's car as he passed. He also got by McClees in the last five laps, a nd started pressuring Smith. However, there were not enough laps left in which to pass Smith, so Howard had to settle for second place by half a second. McClees came in with a strong third. Folund ended up sixth. An accident happened just after the checkered flag involving Don McCleod, · Smith, and Bowling. McC Cleod lost control, flipped his car , and landed close to the wall at turn one. Smith and Bowling got tied up trying to avoid hitting McCleod's car, and Earl Kelly ended up in the infield, also avoiding the wreck. McCleod was taken to the hospital for a safety check-up. Smith wasn' t injured; and neither was his car. He was on hand to receive the trophy for winning the race. Fred Ede won an exciting 50 lap B-main, by no more than a half of a car length. Vaughn Agers just couldn't take him at the finish. On lap three, Mark Sargent blew his engine, Don Epperson spun, and Rick Horton and Ray Otis spun to avoid Epperson, bringing out the first red flag of the race. Sargent and Horton dropped. After ten laps, Alan Bebe spun in turn four , causing a yellow flag condition. Again under way, Ede, Pete Dalla, Dick Rauser, Agers, and Dennis Hicks pulled away from the pack. Due to a bad shock absorber, Dalla experienced handling problems, and slowed down. He took fourth position.

With the end of 27 laps, Hicks spun out, bringing out another yellow flag. He dropped. Again, Ede, Rauser, and Agers pulled away from the pack. Rauser and Agers had a very close battle for a few laps, but Agers got the edge on the back stretch and took over the second position. He then started pressing Ede. J ohn Stewart tied up with Tom Haylett after 36 laps, both cars spinning and hitting the wall. Stewart and Haylett both dropped. By now half of the starting field had dropped. When the action picked up again, Ede . and Agers fought for the lead, Ede with the edge. Also, Mike Sargent, Rod Furtado, and Jim Eiland were having a good battle for fifth , sixth, and seventh places. On the white flag lap, Agers pushed Ede all around the track. He took the outside coming ~ut of turn four, and just· missed getting the checkered flag first by a half a car length. Roland Wlodyka came very close to breaking Altamont's track record, a 17.543, an average speed of 102.603 mph set by Nick Rescino. Wlodyka turned a 17.687 around the half-mile track, an average speed of 101.810 mph . Second fastest time was placed by Johnny · Brazil; a 17.704. Rescino turned a 17.725. Foland turned an 18.059 in his sprint car. Burt Foland took a surprising trophy dash, holding off the other super modifieds for six laps. Coming in Howard was second Kaeding, followed for third by Rescino, who shut off his ~ngine coming out of turn four . Johnny Brazil dropped on the fourth lap. Rescino was to be in the A-main, but he broke his engine in the trophy dash, so he drove _I!ichard Walsh's sprint car.

In all three matches the defense did the job once again for the Jags, but in the game played against Santa Monica the offense came to life and exploded for 10 points. Herb Bell and Pa ul Parker , who coach Bob Jones says haven't been playing up to s tandard, both played well and accounted for 7 of the Aqua-Jags goals. Roy Read and Karl Gambral tallied the remaining 4. The defense headed by rookie goalie Tod Osborn student the S.M. attack and held them to just 2 goals. The home opener against another was Chabot runaway victory fo r the Aqua-J ags. The good de.fense and the hot offense, led the Aqua-Jags to their second league victory 13-3. Once more . the two veterans Parker and Bell ied the point

getting for the Aqua - Jags. They totaled 6 of the 13 goals scored by the Jag offense, Read and Gambral added 4 in the winning cause. Osborn : again did a job for the AquaJ ags and showed that he is mor e than capable at his position. The big game for the Jags came when they traveled to San Mateo for a match with the powerful San Mateo team . The job that coach J ones felt the Jags would have to do is contain the high scoring Mark Pecar, the top player for San Mateo. The defense couldn 't do the job this time and Pecar popped in 7 goals and lead the SM team to victory 6-14. The offense of the Aqua-Jags bogged down and only managed 6 points. Bell led the scoring with 4, and Hoerner and Spizak each got 1. --r----

Coach Jones feels the team is starting to play better. 9sborn is doing a real good JOb at the goalie position and Parker and Bell are starting to score the points. The ~efense has been doing the JOb on the opposing offensive threat and the offense is coming around. The coach thinks the team still has a shot at second behind either San Mateo or Diablo Valley. This week the Aqua - Jags will face another league opponent, when they meet the City College of San Francisco in the Jags home pool at 3:30 today. Then they will travel to Los Altos Hills for a 3:30 match - up with Foothill, Friday. Next week the team will play the two power houses of the GGC as they face Diabo Valley on Oct. 31 here, and San Mateo again here, on Nov. 2.

Chabot is defeated by a score of 13-3.

Merritt College is next on tap fo r the Jaguars, following last week's mild upset of Chabot, 21-17. Turnovers were the name of the game in last Friday's .t he against t r ium ph Gladiators up in Hayward. The gridders picked off six passes and bl ocked two punts. The statistics would seem to point to a San J ose loss. Marv Stewa rt gained "only" 94 yards, in 25 carries of the ball, being held under the century mark in yardage for the first time all season. Chabot also outgained City by some 100 yards, 391 - 291 total. Despite the below average performance for Stewart, the purple streak remains the leading rusher in the

Returnees filled four of the first five starting positions with Delores Johnson: a freshman, in the fifth spot. Miss Davenport, coach of the female Jags, said: "I am extremely pleased with the starting as well as the performance of the substitutes.

What 'Now? What 's the outlook for peace studies and anti - war activism on college and university campuses, now that American involvement has ended and an uneasy peace reigns in Southeast Asia ? Their need would continue to appear urgent for years to come, though the Class of '77 will be the first group of 18 year - olds entering college for almost two generations without a shooting war going on. Asswning that this year 's crop of freshmen was born mainly in 1955, its members have spent their entire lives in an active war environment. Some distl.U'bing insights into their successive college classes' social attitudes and influences may be glimpsed in a recently published study on children's attitudes about war; "Children and War," Teachers College Press, by Howard Tolley, Jr., assistant professor of political science at Wilberforce University. Analysis of his statistical findings indicates a marked ambivalence in children's attitude to war, a scepticism about government and the president, and greater influence in their opinion forming by parental beliefs than by the educational system, churches, media and other forces for ethical and social responsibility. Dr. Tolley says that childhood socialization influ~nces later adult political beliefs. He also cites research studies with high school students which revealed little difference in attitude between freshmen and seniors. The sample group comprised 2,677 children in grades three to eight in New York, New Jersey and ~aryl~nd, whom Dr. Tolley mterYiewed early in 1971. At the time, Vietnam was still an abrasive public issue. These children have lived the~ entire lives in a war e!lvtronment. They were the f1rst generation to have observed televised combat. And they had been exposed to the anti- war movement in the schools during the 1960s. It would appear that our colleges and universities have their work cut out in fos~e.ring a higher order of political and social orientation against war in their educational scheme, if we are to make any progress to a world at peace in the future.
