.Students Discuss Parking._: '

By LAURIE SLOTHHOWER Two years ago today, SJCC students were in the midst of a seething protest against the new 25¢ parking fee. Today , not many people here remember the boycott. Not many people understand what the ruckus was about. Most have graduated. An informal "Times" survey found that most sutdents polled had no idea why the fee is charged or where the Mr. Reed's penetrating camera capmoney goes. tures Finland and Lapland in mid-winter, Only one respondent said the fee had as well as in summer, spring and something to do with 'some stupid state autumn.

"I $1.50. agree that it's an evil-it's a necessity- but 25¢ is a bit high. It would be more advantageous to the student if it were a dime. It's City College the money should be spent on. If the taxpayers decide they want a parking lot at Evergreeh, ey . should pay for it." An interesting sidenote: The Board of Trustees, who decided to have pay parking at City, are exempt from the fee. They are issued parking cards, according to Richard Phillips, head of Security.

· Teachers also do not pay for parking. Free parking was included as a fringe benefit in this year's contract. An interesting angle to the parking lot situation is what will happen if the Environmental Protection Agency's recommendations go into effect? The EPA has suggested charging employees $1 a head each time they park in a company parking lot. This rate would decrease with the mor people in the car, thus encouraging car pools. Still, SJCC is not broke, per se. We have oodles and oodles of money -

Past Thanksgiving Revisited By KRIS FISCHER Did you know, or do you even care ...? That the first Thanksgiving, held to celebrate an improved harvest, was decided upon in a small town which was made up of seven private houses and four communal buildings? The feast lasted for three days. Joining the pilgrims was the chief o the Wampanoags, Massasoit, who brought with him ninety braves. They competed with the settlers in racing, jumping and marksmanship games. The menu of that first historic meal was extensive, But there is no account of turkey being served. The Indians added deer to the venison, duck, goose, seafood, eels, white bread, corn bread, leeks, watercress, and greens prepared by the settlers. There were wild plums and dried berries for dessert; and strong, sweet wine made from wild grapes. Though the celebration of 1621 was a success, it was two years before the pilgrims held another. A two-month drought the following year caused a ppor harvest , and the there was no reason to

~ning.

Means Realizing that individuals learn in liferent ways, and at differing rates of !leed, Evergreen Valley College offers a lnnber of ways students may elect to ccomplish their goals.

"Finland and Lapland," an authentic and beautifully photographed film, produced and narrated by Harry R. Reed, lecturer-cinematographer, will be. shown on Sunday evening, November 25, in the Campus Theater at 7:30 -p.m., as the final program in the Fall World Travel Film Series presented by the Office of Community Services.

Three choral groups and two directors will combine to present Handel's oratorio "The Messiah " in the campus theater, Dec. 16. Vincent Carter, of the music department faculty, will direct both the college's Chorale and Chamber Choir and the San Jose Senior Citizens' Chorus: Inspiration for blending the young student voices with the more seasoned voices, Carter said, was based on recognition for repetition of famous works. "Too often old favorites are passed by in favor of newer works because of the fee~ing there is no need for repetition. I believe there will always be a need as long as there are students to learn and where can they learn faster than' with veteran performers," he said.

celebrate. After much fasting and prayer, the long awaited rains arrived in July of 1623, along with more pilgrims and supplies from England, and Governor Bradford of Massachusetts proclaimed the 30th of that month a day of "Thanksgiving and Prayer." Records of following Thanksgivings are sporadic. Each state called for their own celebrations as successful harvests were produced. In 1665, for example, citizens in Connecticut observed the last Wednesday in October as a Thanksgiving Day " for the blessings of the fruits of the earth ~nd ,t,he general health of the . . plantations. George Washmgton prlcla1med the first nati~na~ Thanks~iving i~ 1~89 , the year of h1s maugurat10n, ass1gnmg thg the 26th of November for its observance. The next one was called by him in 1795. But the problems of coordinating the seasons of the farmers and herdsmen made it difficult to arrive at a common date. The Puritans refused to recognize a civil judgment for a date, for they felt that it should be a spontaneous show of thanks. Because of the religious involvement, most presidents refused to tamper with the establishment of a permanent celebration, but by 1817, most New Englanders had begun to observe Thanksgiving on a regular basis. Josepha Hale, editor of the Boston Ladies Magazine, began a campaign in 1827 to have the day celebrated across the nation, and it grew with mounting success until final victory in 1863, when President Lincoln officially proclaimed Thanksgiving as a national holiday to be observed on the last Thursday of November. It remained fixed until 1939 when, responding to pressures from merchants, President Roosevelt shifted the day to the third Thursday. This would give store owners more time to prepare for the Christmas rus.ti. But Americans were so opposed to the change, that within two years the day was reset to the fourth Thursday, by a Congressional Joint Resolution. This settled the dispute and Thanksgiving is now a legal holiday in all states and possessions of the United States. Traditional observance of the day varies according to region. It was the custom in the 19th century in New England, to hold shooting matches on Thanksgiving morning. The practice spread and is now done throughout the country. It was also common in the 19th century for poor children in the large cities on the eastern coast, to dress in costume and roam the streets begging fruit , vegetables and money. Today, in Plymouth, Massachusetts, there is a full-dress re-enactment of the first ThanksS!iving. Quaintly attired citizens march to Burial Hill, the grave site of the victims of the severe winter of

1621, and hold a memorial service there. Sports are customarily played· on Thanksgiving. Today's football follows the Pilgrims participation in stool ball , and the bicycle races of the 19th century. There is a group worth mentioning from southeastern Pennsylvania, that has traditionally celebrated a separate Thanksgiving. It is the Schwenkfelders, who arrived in Philadelphia after escaping religious persecution in Germany on September 22, 1734. Two days later they officially declared themselves subjects of the British and· proclaimed that day, September 24, as a Thanksgiving Day. The members of this Pennsylvania Dutch community are still faithful to their old custom and bread, · water and apple butt~r are tne traditional foods served at their holiday meal.

ENERGY CRISIS: Easily Solved? This country ' s current dilemma over the so-called " energy crisis" will not be e asily s olved . Especially when most people refuse to acknowledge that it exists. We aB mock concern a bout the growing shortage of fuels that the world so greedily gobbles up. It's the main c onversation of topic throughout the country. When we finish talking, we jump in our automobiles and tear down the freeway at 75 mph. Any person who tried to fo1low the 50 mile an hour g uideline that has been suggested was lucky to exit from a highway without getting flattened by fe1low motorists. Those same drivers also floor the gas pedal when pulling away from a traffic light. This not only eats up precious fuel , but a1lows tons more of pollutan ts to billow into the air . · An observer would have to c onclude that we are a rather hypocritical bunch. What right do we have to present the critic ize situation if we do nothing to a lleviate. the problem ourselves. Do you leave lights burning in rooms when there is no need for them? Do you 1 jd1e your ca r ? How about leliving the television on even though nobody is

watching it. All are unnecessary and are a waste of energy. It 's a simple task to remember to turn off a light. That is the very least you can do. America's long, long love affair with the car may finally be coming to an end. It probably would be the best · thing to ever happen to this country. Our fascination with the a uto has been the biggest contributing factor to our r unning short of resources. We have used the car indiscriminately, even driving children to school , two blocks away, when it would be better for their bodies and the air fi they would walk or ride a bike. Most people are so lazy that they don't even consider walking up to the corner stor e to shop. They're too conditioned to jump behind the wheel. Let 's face it, our cities have been layed out according to the whims of the a utomobile. Our own city is a case in point. For students attending City College from the Eastside, it's almost essential to have a car to make it her e on time. That's where the future development of mass transit comes in. While people berate the

and system, BART exagerate its faults, those who live within its service are the luckiest people in the country. Despite its problems , BART is clean, efficient, attractive, and an overall joy to ride. Commuters who ride it regularly will save on gas money, the wear and tear on their automobiles, and their nerves from missing all those fun traffic jams. That also means less energy consumed, and less junk spewed into the atmosphere. Meanwhile in San Jose, we continue to jam the thoroughfares and curse at aB the other traffic. Until we begin to realize that all of us will be affected by the energy shortage, the government pleading will go for naught. Either we voluntarily cut back on our consumptin, or the government agencies will volunteer to do it for us. Keep in mind, though, it takes a little thought on your part. Something that most of us are not in a habit of doing. Next time you cruise a quarter of a mile to a friends' house . . .think. Couldn't you ride a bike? Did you ever tranpublic consider sportation to go shopping? Wake up, friends, before you don't have a choic~.

MAIL BOX Editor! Let's all write our congressman or General Motors and "request" clean air cars and the good fairy just might bring us one. If we leave the tooth under the pillow. In order to clean up the environment, we do not have to stop American industry dead in it's tracks . Stricter pollution requirements now, would result in a major slowdown of production and widespread unemployment. Efforts to develop smog free cars have been going on for quite some time. Unfortunately a pollution free automobile has not been developed yet. If an efficient clean engine would have been designed, the industrial Am erican of genius technology that landed men on the moon and brought them back safe, certainly would have pr oduced it. Scientific research in this country is in a s low p eriod. Research can only do so much with the money available, no m atter what people may wish. The goal here is to be able to produce a pollution fr ee power plant that also is reasonable i n operatin g expenses. Bill Lear is the fountainhead of the drive for cleaner tr ansportation. This

I

man bas for years poured m illions of dollars of his own money into r esearch. All this in alm ost toal vain. Ur ging a nd demanding yourself proclaimed " right" to clean transportation just won't get the job done. Much m ore money and a lot of time may be still needed ahead, for research and development. With all the money thrown away by a spend crazy government, I don't see any reason why they shouldn't put some muscle behind the worthwhile drive for clean personal transportation. A program not unlike the spa ce effort to la ne men on the moon should be undertaken, a nd en t husiasti c ally dynamically, by the feder al government. Then , once this ideal power plant is developed, the government should turn over the design to private concerns without bias or r estraint. This puts the government once more at the citizens service a nd yet keeps it out of the American economy. This is what I call the government serving t he interests of the people - - for the people 's good. Much like the space program, the value received would make me, as one citizen, feel much better about my tax dollas.

Editor : I want to congratulate you on your coverage of the wom en 's sports program here at San Jose. Specific thanks for the coverage of the women ' s ba sketball i team. Your sports editor should for complimented be recognizing that women also have a sha r e in the total spor ts picture on this campus . Sincerely, Evonne Davenport Physical Education Dept.

Holiday losing Me aning Tha nksgiving is legally called a national holiday. That 's beca use it is cele brated by the whole nation. Unlike its pJ'eparation for other holidays in America, the public has not yet been persuaded to wear a new Thanksgiving ensemble, don a Puritan costume, or give a " Pilgrim Beats the Turkey" game to best friends. But that has not stopped the gods on Madison Avenue. It is impossible to escape the smiling-turke y gr eeting cards on display in October, or to avo id the t urke y placemats with co-ordinated plates and napkins to dress up the holiday table, or to ignore the artificial Indian corn decor that completes every Thanksgiving setting. · Most impor tant of course, is remin der .,"''''::.:::that the "Thanksgiving is the ..-offldal s tart of th e Christmas shopping season.

Likes & Gripes The fuel crisis has r eached out and touched all of us on the shoulder. The " media " threaten daily about new c ontrols . Ga s ra tioning which will affect people most dir ectly appea rs to be just a r ound the corner . With this in mind the "Times" r oving SJCC as ked r eporter students " How will gas rationing affect you?" TED PAVENELLE, " It'll pr obably hurt me. I· drive 28 m iles round trip to work and a bout 12 miles to school. I'm not sure I'll get enough gas to make it." DE BBY SOGNO, - " It will really be a hardship for everyone, but I drive 10 miles one way to school and then to work and I also take

my father to work, so I don't think I'll be able to do it all. " RAMO NA LEUIRO , " Although we have already been rationing our own gas usa ge because of the current inflation, I think it might be good for the Am erican people to stop running around in their autos , polluting the air and contributing to our "rat race" . Maybe some will have to stay home and get to know their neighbors." CHARLOTT SMITH, - "It will really upset my household as my husband won't be able to live at home and he might not even get home every weekend. He works all over the state, lately he has been wor king a t Monterey. I may even have to quit school."

Too often we accept stories out of our historical past without knowing the " story" behind the story. Since this column is dedicated to truth in knowing, the following is a story behind th~ story of history which must be exposed. About two hundred years ago when this country was just beginning , and the colonists were declaring their independence, one of the problems faced was that ·of selecting a national bird. Benjamin Franklin thought that the native turkey would be appropriate. Johnny Adams, being a little more assertive than Ben, insisted that the bald eagle would be the only way to fly. John Hancock thought that the whole thing was ludricous and allowed as how he didn't care if they picked the buzzard for the job. Adams replied: " Hancock hasn't been the same since he was investigated by the " un-quacker Activities Committee," and had to spend a night in the stocks." Hancock which To r esponded sardonically : "That 's a zinger Johnny." Throughout the colonies, the discussion went on, until were citizenry the thoroughly confused as to which bird was finally decided upon. Finally, at one of the early Thanksgiving dinners, the problem kind of "solved itself. " This particular dinner was catered to by a well known group call " The Kentucky Backwoodsmen" who also played gigs on the weekends a t the local tavern. The group had heard about the controversey over "the bird," but dido 't care a whole lot about the outcome. The cook, who also played " static guitar " had instructions about the way the centerpiece was to be laid

waistline has grown, and ever the child, he can't understand why. She's pregnant, obviously. He picked her up in a bar, with his best Bogart tough - guy style, and the next thing he knew, he was buying her a washing machine. Such is life. "For everyman" is "Rock Me On The Water" once again. In the earlier song he said "I'm going to leave you now and try and get down to the sea somehow", the image of water flowi ng through the music. In "For Ever yman '' he says his goodbyes with a sigh of resignation. And that's the record. Taken together, both of Jackson Browne's albums are warm, compassionate and understanding, and soothing. They have a claming effect on me. And I'm amazed at the way he takes a general statement and turns it into a private truth. At 23, he is probably one of the most important writers we have, more power to him. 20/ 20Nudes David Bowie did his Midnite special last week.

Study Aid For SJCC Stud ents By Fred Martinez assist you in working out a prescription that will best fit your needs. Ususually this is a combination of tape cassette instruction, readings, and mini- c_ourses. On an average day, 50 students will be in and out of the Center. Each one gets personal help from one of the student workers or counselors, though the majority spend their time working on the cassette tape programs. The mini - course program is a half-hour class on topics "Effective as such Notetaking" or " Remembering Your Learning." Anyone is welcome to these sessions without obligation to return. In these small group meetings you have good opportunity to ask questions. "Test - taking Made Easy" was particularly popular before mid - terms and probably will be even more popular before finals. SAC is ahead of many other colleges with similar programs in California and Oregon, according to Mrs. Butler. The reason for this

Have you walked by the library recently and noticed the increased activity in the ·· area? City College students have discovered a new study technique, the world of the headphone. the Study is This Assistance Center located next to the library. It is a project whose purpose is to assist students to become more effective and efficient learners. Mrs . ~argaret Butler and Dr. Gordon Peterson devised a four year plan for a program called the Study Assistance Center (SAC). They presented the plan to the San Jose City College Board of Trustees who . granted the money to get the program started on a trial basis. If you were to go to SAC for a first visit, probably neither you or SAC would know precisely just what your problems are. So you would be given a survey of reading and a study efficiency test. The test usually takes less than an hour to complete. When completed, you will see a counselor who will ..

Memories

Of A Shy E gomaniac "Reporters have been described as shy egomaniacs. That's about as good a description as any, I guess ." That's the opinion of Leigh Weimers, author of the column "The Leigh Side" which appears in the San Jose Mercury, who spoke to a newswriting class last week. "I _learned about writing sports from reading sports" he said. "I learned it was basically memorizing cliches. That's not adequate It's writing. go?~ wntmg ... communication is what it's really all about. "Objectivity is a myth" he said at one point. "It's all subjective. All you can do IS be honest in your writing." "Objectivity can be a cop-out. I'm afraid it really can."

Paranoia Sets In By Laurie Slothower paranoia, n. (psychiatry) 1. A mental disorder characterized by systemized delusions and the projection of personal conflicts which are ascribed to the supposed hostility of others. This disorder can exist for years without any disturbance of consciousness. -American College Dictionary. "Must be because I had the flu for Christmas . . .and I 'm not feeling up to par. . .and it increases my paranoia. . .like looking in my window and seeing a police car." -from "Almost Cut My Hair", by David Crosby I suppose everybody has felt paranoid at some time or other. What with the

Topics in the open speech discussion included media responsibility, the women's movement, the opportunities in journalism, Watergate and the San Jose Mercury. In discussing the Mercury he said " I have had columns held back because they disagreed with the ~ercury's editorial policy." He paused and added "But not one has been held back since Watergate." Getting a newspaper column takes "Luck-perseverence and in my case, it took three years of kicking and sc~eaming . Weimers was assistant city editor before writing his column which appears six times weekly. Weimers has spent eight of his 13 years on the Mercury writing the column. Weimers graduated from San Jose State with a BA in journalism. He worked on his high school paper and spent two years at a Napa community college with ~he sam_e major, journalism. "A major in JOurnalism won't help you in real life," he said. "I didn't Jearn anything in school that I couldn't have learned on the job. ~e re~ommends college for budding JOurnalists . He urges them to major in so_m ething like political science, ~cwlog~, or English, with a minor in JOurnalism.

due to the fact that the planned was Center thoroughly before a penny wa s spent on it. The plan calls for a slow, steady growth over a four year span. F or instance, in 1972, the Center had a total personnel of one counselor and 35 working hours a week for student aides. By 1976, if everything goes according to · plans, SAC will have. a communication speciahst, two paraprofessionals, four graduate assistants and a total working time of 75 hours a week for student aides. According to the plan for the future, the community would be permitted to use the Center, it would have such things as computer terminals to the computer center at Stanford (for student use), the room would be enlarged to ac- . commodate two other programs, and m uch more. The Center is open from 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. on Monday, Thursday, and Friday; a nd 8:00a.m . to 9:00 p. m. on Tuesday and Wednesday.

line. Moments later, the touchdown was scored on a halfback option pass from the 25 into the end zone. The two first period miscues spelled the end for City College, because the quick ten points the Bulldogs put on the board turned out lo be all they needed. Stewar ts ' lengthiest ramble of the day, the one that gave him tbe record, set up the lone Jaguar TD of the afternoon, as he was finally halted at the San Mateo 13yard line. Quarterback Tom Boehme successfully jumped in from the one-yard line, in a fourth down situation, and the Lou Rodriquez ' extra point pulled his teammates to within striking distance, at 10·7. The score came with 8:25 remaining in the first

half.

The tally remained that way until the fourth quarter , when the Bulldogs made their capping touchdown. In

between was nothing but frustration for Jim Wheelehan and his squad. J ag kicker , Lou Rodriquez , had a longshot chance to deadlock the contest, but barely missed a wind-blown 49-yard field goal attempt. Purple and white runners encountered all kinds of trouble trying to keep some semblence of footing on the rain-soaked turf. Usually the sloppy field won. Bulldogs Wrap It Up The final blow occurred with 10 :29 left in the game when yet another fumble put the eventual winners in position for their last score. San Mateo QB, John Saloman, tossed a nine-yard pass to receiver Steve Myers for a 16-7 bulge. Although at this pint it was academic, the Jaguars drove all the way to the opposing 13-yard marker before the clock tolled the last second. That number was ironically

The women-Jags crushed Hartnell, Thursday, with a final score of 68-29, coming back after a decisive win over Laney, Tuesday, 49-37. Highly -ranked Laney College, of Oakland, fell as City's women took the lead in the second quarter a nd continued to maintain a substantial advantage. The Oakland team never really got their shooing squad into position in the last period; the Jags took note of this and were able to execute their offensive plays with a certain amount of success. Once again high scoring

credit was kept in the family as Patti Lindh tallied 17 points against Laney's defense while her sister, Sue, was able to sink 14 points that night. Together, in the Laney game, the Lindh sisters racked up 31 points, bringing their season's total to 213 points in nine games. Sue has captured 113 while Patti follows closely with 100 points so far.

The offense and defense combined their efforts when Laney managed to break up our plays. They (City) were able to react on a broken play with a good percentage of accuracy." Although Hartnell's defensive squad kept our female hoopsters' shooting to a minimum , in the first quarter, City's women pumped in 11 points while allowing the Salinas five to come up with only 6 points. By the end of the third period,it had become apparent that Har tnell 's women would have to get

All I want from a horror picture is a weU · structured plot, believable acting, and suspense. Also, my sensibilities are indebted to any modern movie where the blood is not flowing like wine. Am I asking too much? If "The Pyx" is the best this genre has to offer, perhaps I am . "The Pyx" -is the tale of a prostitute - junkie who becomes fa tally involved with the occult. The opening scene finds her dead body discovered by the police, and the film transfers from her life to the investigation in lengthy flash - backs. Although other periodicals have terms it "a tantalizing thriller, " " a powerful p,ackage of supernatura l mystery " and "a stunner", I find it best described as " disappointing." Firstly, the photograph is fuzzy - edged and dark. The darkness does enhance the supernatural aspects but the fuzziness is annoying . As for the acting, Karen Black is good, but she has no range . She is effective when she is sultry, angry, or depressed. But these are easy emotions to portray. The plot is not suspensful . One way of deriving horror from a situation is to show the victim as he/ she slowly realizes their plight. Their face expresses their horror, and the audience can identify with it. But Karen Black, doesn't

Even though Marv Stewart became California's new rushing champion for a single season, the Jaguars forgot to tag on a championship season along with it. Amid the mud and the rain of San Mateo, City College's dream of their first football championship in 14 years was buried by CSM, 17-7. Secondary to the heartbr eaki ng defeat was Stewart's 97-yard performance, good enough to push him past Clarence Davis ' old record of 1582 yards set in 1968. Marvin, in his San Jose finale , established himself as the new standard-bea rer with a 1973 total of 1,624 yards. Fumbles spelled doom for the Jags , who committed five bobblesoihe first coming on only the contests' second play from scrimmage.

Kicker Steve LaPlante booted it from the· 30-yard line. The San Mateans increased their early lead to 10-0 when they blocked a Jaguar punt and recovered possession on City's 34-yard

The film creates an aura, a fe eling of helplessness against overwhelming evil that is the most successful part of the movie. Karen Black wrote and performed the songs in the movie.
