18 yea r 0 lds--- To Dri nk or Not .To Dri nk - California voters may be voting to· lower the drinking age from 21 to 18 in ' November. Petitions have been circulated to place the initiative on the ballot but results have not as yet been announced. :~ since the adoption of the 26th amendtlent in 1971 which gave 18 - year - olds Ehe right to vote in all elections, there has &een talk about allowing 18 - to - :aJ year ylds to purchase alcoholic beverages. ~ It has been proven in several states that once a state lowers its drinking age fo 18 it markedly increases the number of arunk driving cases and highway acOidents. Michigan for instance set its legal age for drinking at 18 in 1971. The reco!d~ show that highway deaths rose in the flrst six months to 1,030, after lowering the legal drinking age, compared to 959 fatalities during the same period of the previous year. The number of fatal accjdents involving drinking drivers in the t!l - to - 21 year group was up by 88 per *nt, and between 1971 and 1972, accidents involving drinking drivers of that same age group shot up llB per cent. That compares with a 23 per - cent $crease of all ages in the same period, atcording to the Automobile Club of ~lchigan.
~ Qf-1
BUT
yOU'RE.
In Tennessee, the Memphis and Shelby County traffic and safety co - ordinating committee stated that during the first year since lowering the age of drinking, accidents among 18 to 21 year olds were up by about 25 per- cent, and accidents in which drinking was suspected as a cause 10.9 per - cent involved new adults. A spokesman for the youth guidance division of the Nashville Police has stated that "They lowered the age by three years, so now we have 15- year olds slipping around getting drinks purchased by 18- year olds they associate with. I'm afriad we were so worried about getting their votes we forgot about the physical and moral well - being." A report by the National Drug Abuse Institute on "Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism" cited alcohol abuse as the great drug problem in the United States. The report claimed that drinking is directly or indirectly responsible for almost half of all arrests made in the U.S. and for about about 28,000 traffic deaths a year. Officer Grant, Information Officer of the California Highway Patrol said, " If people knew the statistics, the drinking age in California would not be lowered." In the :aJ - 24 year age group where drinking is legal for 3/ 4 of the group

there were 3,265 fatality or mJury accidents which were caused by drinking drivers in 1973 in the state of California. In the 25 - 29 age group, 2,356; 30 - 34 age group, 1,904; and in the 15-19 age group, where there are fewer drivers and the buying of alcoholic beverages is illegal, 1,669.
conThe 26th Amendment to the stitution granted 18 year olds the right to vote. California was the 18th state to ratify the amendment. California law already permits 18 year olds to hold office, to be responsible for . their own debts, to enter into contracts, to serve on juries, and in some cases to be sentenced as adults for crimes. Assemblyman Robert Nimmo, RAtascadero, author of the amendment, argues that drinking privileges were the only ones
Solid Waste s In Ameri ca There is enough energy in the solid wastes in large U.S. cities to light every home and commercial establishment in the country all year round, a U.S. Environmental Protection Agency official said. · Arsen Darnay, EPA' s Deputy Assistant Administrator for Solid Waste Management Programs, told a news conference that the human wastes could be converted into energy to generate the electricity in large urban areas. The total energy provided by this waste, he said, would be the equivalent of 150 million barrels of oil a year. He added that if the burning was accompanied by recovery of the metals, glass, rubber and other items for recycling, there would be an additional energy saving equal to 30 million barrels of oil each year . The reason for this is that it normally takes less energy to manufacture a product using secondary materials, such as scrap iron or steel, than to make it with the virgin materials, such as iron ore. Darnay listed 21 cities where a plan to burn trash as an auxiliary fuel to make electricity has either been adopted, or is under serious consideration. Some of the plans to use solid waste as fuel for electricity are modeled on an EPA supported demonstration in St. Louis by the city and the Union Electric Company. After magnetic metals are remqved for recycling by ·the···'Granite City Steel Company, the waste is burned along with coal in one of Union Electric's boilers. " In the St. Louis Demonstration, we have convincing evidence of a large, virtually untapped energy source for the country, Darnay said.
Drinking: Right of_18 Year Olds? Should 18 - year - olds be allowed to drink? Since many of our San Jose City Co!Jege students lie in the affected 18 - 21 age bracket, including a good percentage of the Times staff, it wou)d seem that the fashionable answer would be yes. People in this age group will obtain liquor anyway, you say. In these liberated times, it would seem silly, almost naive, to deny 'adult' 18 - year olds the same rights and privileges possessed by their elders.
,,
Rights and privileges. It is the right of oll mature adults to enjoy liquor, you say. Just as it is a privilege to insult your family and friends and spent the morning after regreeting it. Just as it is a privilege to become part of the twisted wreckage of your automobile on a lonely country road at 2 a.m. lf you want, you should have the right to kill innocent motorists and bystanders because ,YOU didn't have the sense to quit drinking. After a!J, it's marvelous to become a s tatistic. states have taken a outlook on the subject and decreed it legal for 18 - year olds to Several

The
possess alcohol. Consequently, the number of drivers, 18 - 21, involved in fatal auto mishaps has dramatically shot upwards. As the death rate soars, unattractive side effects flourish. Many college - age young people will find it even more difficult to gain insurance coverage. The intoduction of liquor into the problem would logically make insurance companies hesitant to take the risk, and provided they do, coverage would come at an even more inflated figure. It's certainly not a question of discrimination against the young. How

withheld when 18 - year olds were legally made adults in California. He said "You can never go wrong in submitting issues to the collective wisdom of the voters." Nimmo also said, "18- year - olds may vote, serve on juries, marry and raise children, serve in the armed forces but they can't buy a bottle of beer." This was the fourth attempt by Nimmo to bring the decision to the citizens of California. Public opinion has shifted in three years , however and a special study of this issue finds that there has been a li~e~alization of attitudes toward perm!ttmg the other "rite of passage" to young adults. Today the proportion of adults 21 and over who approve the idea of allowing 18 - to - 20 year olds to buy liquor has climbed to 47 per cent in comparison to 21 per cent in 1971.
anyone could construe this as discrimination is hard to reason . The effects of alcohol on people's lives and on society is nothinf to be proud of. With 18 - year olds free to consume all the liquor they wish, we could have younger bums and hobos prowling skid row. Marriages could break up at an even earlier age, the average age of the 10 million alcoholics in the U.S. would be lower. More young people could meet their end crunched between two hunks of steel. The benefits go on and on. Let the 'adults' over 21 continue to have a corner on the hard stuff. We shouldn't spoil their fun .
A reduction in the legal drinking age would result in more alcohol related traff ic acc idents , an increase in alcoholism in the years ahead, and cause drinking problems in high schools. The question is whether young persons can handle alcoholic? If you legalize it at 18 will it also reach out and envelope the 15 year olds? Can the 18- to- 21 year old do a be tter job of handling alcoholic beverages than the·22 - to - 24 year old? Whose age group is responsible for the greatest amount of drinking related fatalities in California. Does it necessarily follow that because a person is mature enough to do one thing that he is mature enough to do another? To allow 18 year olds to purchase and consume alcoholic beverages is to invite them to risk all the dangers of alcohol , the single most used and abused drug in our culture. Alcohol is a drug with a high potential for addiction . According to the Los Angeles County Alcohol Safety Action Program , one out of every twenty teenagers in southern California has "a drinking problem", and the National · Council on alcoholics reported that in 1972 the age of the youngest alcoholic who came to their attention dropped from 14 to 12.
Lett ers Pro Editor: I can't tell you how refreshing it was to see your review of " Billy Jack" in your May 3 edition. I am so sick of ads for this bomb on the radio, television and wherever else the money - mongering producers of this movie can manage, that Stephen Abney's review was like a breath of fresh air. His comparison of "Billy Jack" to a " greasy submarine sandwich" was beautiful. lb. really hit home with me, because after I saw " Billy Jack", I thought I was going to be sick. Thank you, Victor Adams
:... and Con Editor: I would like to take exception to the review of "Billy Jack " in your May 3 issue. . I t~ink Mr,. Abney is very guilty of nit p!Ckmg. While he may have a poor point m some of his jobs at the technical job done on the film, too much is made of the exaggerated characters. Of course the characters are bigger than life. I honesUy hope Mr. Abney did not. view the film thinking it was a verbatim account of a true life experience. " Billy Jack " is a parable of sorts. The ~fferent fi~ures in the movie represent different philosophy or way of life. On the ~nl( hand is the violent, over bearing B11Iy Jack" , on the other is his ultra pacifist girl friend. The conclusion leaves us with the message that perhaps an answer is to be found somewhere in the middle. It seems to me that Mr . Abney took both himseU and " Billy J ack" just a little too seriously. Reba Hendricks The Times welcomes all letters to the editor. Letters should be no more than 150 words in length and must be signed.
Arena Again E ditor : I would like to r efer everyone to Teri DeBoever 's May 3 editorial against both
the ARENA committee and my open letter about it. She makes a few misleading comments. For example she states : " I think a little research on your part (the Times) might have tempered the all out sales job you printed." I wrote the article, not the Times. They were simply complying with their "freedom of expression policy" for all City College students. Second, I challenge Miss DeBoever to find any erroneous " research " in the article. AJl of it is true, backed up by facts. It is not at all emotional as YQU imply when you stated "all out sales job." Miss DeBoever also misquoted the evaluation question. It actually reads " .. .His knowledge is not used to make the student feel inferior because of the student's ignorance of the subject. She also implies we're having . " a fine time ripping teachers" . Again, she lacks evidence -for this remark because no evidence exists. Our book will simply reflect what it is students say about instructors, not what we say.

Editor : The viewpoint expressed in your May 3 edition regarding the hunt for _th~ Zebra killers has a very great flaw m 1t. While Mr . Marrable was un derstandably concerned with the r ights of those questioned on the streets of San Francisco, he failed to view the total pictur e. Personal rights go only so far, and they stop when they infringe upon those of other individuals. The old case of not being allowed to ye!J "fire" in a crowded thea ter bears this out. Just as the freedom of speech stops short of yelling fire, so does the .righ~ to privacy stop when an attempt Is bemg made to prevent the murders of other San Francisco citizens. P erhaps the Black community of San Francisco would not be quite so concerned with civil rights of their neighbors were it Blacks who had been gun~ed down at random by white men.

Women believe they are. The accusation was made in the form of a letter received by Dr. Otto Roemmich, Superintendent of San Jose City Co!Jege. A le tter copy of the was also sent to the Times. A story regarding the letter appeared in the April 26 edition of the Times. In the letter, the group refers back to a 1970 Accreditation Report. The report cites the lack of women in executive positions and urges the hiring of minority r epresentatives and women for the administrative staff. The letter went on to list some of the a dministrative positions now open, and urged that "qualified or qualifia ble women" be h ired to filJ these positions. Regardless of whether discnmination because of sex has occured in the District, the Times does not agree with the remedy proposed by Campus Women. Jus t as much a part of true equality as equal opportunity is equal competition. It would be just as unjus t for the District to hire a n applicant because she was a woman, as it would be to refuse her that same job due to her sex. When Campus Women urges that "qualifiable women" be hired they are overstepping the bounds of equality . Why should the District have to hire and qualify an applicant simply because of her sex? Wome n a re certainly every bit as capable of competing on the job market as men. The Times urges the District not to refuse a woman a job dn the basis of her sex alone. Likewise, we urge the Dis trict not to hire a woman on the same criterion. In other words, may the best person win .

Ah spring! People ambling even slower than usual to class, or reclining sleepily on the grass. Groups clustered talking, smoking, drinking· soda. Dayglo orange frisbe es cutting sharp paths in the air. Ten pound coats abandoned and sandals retrieved. Pale limbs are exposed under sleevele ss shirts and stringy cutoffs. Junior journalists try to think UP flashy cliches !or their spring layouts. On the lRWn students meditate, their legs bent pretzel - like in yoga, while others engage in benevolent roughhousing. The strains of folk - rock issue from steel guitars. The warm lure of spring draws students from their studies, the 70-plus weather erasing memories of the seemingly never-ending rain. The season is the rejuvenating rebirth of winter and the promise of still warmer days to come, and though lil' darling, it's been a long cold lonely winter the sun is finally here.

shouts of approval and encouragement. Doc and Merle rciprocated with more synchronized picking and backwoods harmonies. Gordon Lightfoot was the leading attraction on the bill, but as Doc was lead off stage to a standing ovation, it was obvious that his would be a tough act to follow. After a short intermission, husky, curly • haired Gordon Lightfoot dressed in multi - patched levis and a blue denim shirt began his set. The Indian balladeer from Toronto, usually a very personable and talkative performer, played a straight set without pause or interruption for antedote or comment. Accompanied by acoustical lead and bass guitarists, he performed most of his better known songs, including "In the Early Morning Rain", " If You Could Read My Mind", "Pony Man", and "Big Blue" . Condensing his ·performance into a tight, one hour set, Lightfoot was gracious and entertaining, but he just didn't seem to be able to produce that indefinable energy that distinguishes a competent from an inspired performance. In fact, he came off as more Doc Watson's follow up, than the main performer. As late afternoon shadows fell across the rumpled picnic blankets and the empty beer kegs, memories of a mini Woodstock in California colors were taken home by 10,000 mellowed out folk and country music fans .

By DaveGoll In preparation for tomorrow 's Northern California finals at Diablo Valley, the Jaguar ovalmen tuned up at the West . Coast Relays last week in Fresno. 22 competitors made the San J~qwn Valleytrip, a meet that was kept m low profile by Coach Bert Bonanno. Cecil Overstreet and Mike Harris placed in third and sixth pla ce, respectively, in the long • jump even_t. Overstreet hurdled 23'6" through the atr while teammate Harris leaped 23'1". Freshman Lon Sisemore finished highly in his two specialties, the shotput and the discus. His heave of 53'7" in the shot was good enough for the third spot in competition. Sisemore let go with a 159' toss of the discus, landing him in fourth place. The 440 - yard relay squad of Don Livers Bob Gordon, Cecil Overstreet and Darrel' Craven copped a third - place medal with a clocking of 42 seconds. Don Livers also fared well in the 100 yard dash competing !he sprint in 9.7 seconds, a' four th - place finish. Livers qualifies as the Golden Gate Conference sprint champion for 1974. An overall time of 10 :10 earned the distance -relay quartet of Ken Williams, George Manriquez, Mike Pick and Ernie Farrell a fifth - place. Nor-Cal Coach Bert Bonanno views San
J oaquin Delta , Foothill and Contra Costa Colleges as presenti ng the s tiffest challenge to his talented charges. " We 've never won the Nor • Cal finals , and I'm horing that Delta, Foothill and Contra Costa will cancel each other out for our benefit," commented Bonanno.

During the swnmer he swims for ;;: the Camden Swim Club which is coached by Dennis Belli. His 'best event is probably the breaststroke, in which he broke the 100:;: ;:; yard breast mark (2:02.4), eclipsing the old record by two and two-tenths ;:; of a second.

A Solution Solution
Rules Again
Editor: . In a recent issue (April 26) you ran a letter written by Mary Padula. In her Jetter, Mary Padula told of all the problems involved with parking a car at San Jose City College. When she finished this list, she decided that the solution was sJmply to build more parking lots. . Using this same logic, if a person were to develop a blemish on their stomach, would the solution to the problem be to eat, thus making the stomach bigger, and the blemish less noticeable? _ We need more par king lots like we need a hole in the head. Between all the used car lots, the supermarkets and the monster shopping centers, San Jose could make a justifiable claim to being ~e parking lot capitol of the world. No, more parking lots is not the answer. Prevention, it is said is the best cure, and this axiom applies in this case. H some of our students were to resort to a method of transportation long ago thrown out as outmoded (walking) or even to something without an engine (a bicycle), I'm sure our parking problem would solve itself very quickly. Dawn Middendorf
Editor: I suppose that I shouldn't have been surprised, but I thought just once that something might slip by. Specifically, I'm referring to your editorial in your May 3 issue calling for a set of rules and regulations concerning bicycles on campus . I say I shouldn't have been surprised because there is very little that is enjoyable that manages to slip by the rulemakers , tickettake rs and the editorial writers. If you are trying to prepare yourself for a position in " that great big world oot there" you are certainly doing a great job of it. Just like city, state and federal governments, newspapers, the media and thousands of special interest groups you are pushing the hell out of the cause of the day. It seems anytime something enjoyable cannot be experience by everyone, suddenly up spring editor ials, tirades, and laws. I can't really knock you and Mr . Phillips thoogh. I'U bet you people love playing rulemakers. I suppose it won't be too long until bicycles won't be allowed on campus, the way that we now can' t spend some time with our dog on campus. • Like I say, I shouldn 't have been too surprised. We were all having entirely too much fun .

Jags after that. Tony Gonzalez, who pitched in relief of Moline and was used as a starter, could do no better, giving up two in the seventh and one in the eighth. The Jags finally scored once in the sixth and again in the eighth inning. . The one bright note for the Jags this season infielder Curt Becker who was spiked' only three days earlier and needed eight stitches near his ankle, decided to give it a go, and went 1·2 to get his batting average up to a final .300 from 295.
