CLASS SCHEDU LE CHANGES--Many students found classes closed or cancelled during registration. As a result the table down the middle of the gym was a busy area for making changes in schedules.

The positions of directors of instructicm in the schools of Tec~ology, Social Sciences -and been have Arts Lan~uage elimmated in budget- cutting moves at San Jose City College, according to President Dr. Theodore Murguia Dr. Murguia announced the ma~or administrative staff reorganizatiOn at a special faculty and staff meeting on Feb. 2. Termination of these positions was made necessary due to the rapid depletion of San Jose Community College District reserve funds, Murguia said. The President also stated he was told by Chancellor Dr. Otto Roemmich last {all that the SJCC budget would be $200,000 less than in the past fiscal years. Under the reorganization, schools terminated will be absorbed by other departments . These have been divided into Humanities, Natural and Applied Science and the School of Human and Social Services.
Humanities will include : language arts, fine arts, philosophy and ethnic studies. According to Dr. Murguia, drastic cuts were made in the budget a year ago but declining enrollment in evening classes and cuts in classified personnel enabled the college to submit budget transfers and put money into much needed equipment and supplies. It was not possible to do the same this year and since the bulk of operating expenditures is in salaries, it was necessary to terminate staff members. He said, " We had ho alternative but to go in another direction. We attempted to not touch a rea that really reflected instruction directly.'' the under Departments . jurisdiction of the School of Human and Social Services will be : dental assisting, cosmetology, early home education, childhood economics and instructional aides. Biological science, physical science, laser technology, elec-
tronics, solar energy, air conditioning and drafting will all be part of Natural and Applied Science. Dr. Murguia also said, "I do not want to go out to the faculty and tell them that they have to tighten their belts and not do the same thing with administration." He added, "The thing that I've done was not done arbitrarily , capriciously or suddenly .'' In addition, Dr. Murguia said he expects to submit a five-year master plan to the board of trustees on Feb. 21, and he hopes a new humanities complex will be constructed east of the college theatre. The temporary buildings at the south end of the campus could then be removed and replaced by parking facilities. In a staff memo on the budget, Dr. Otto Roemmich also emphasized the necessity of budget cuts . He said, " On the basis of present income projections the District will have to reduce expenditures by a minimum

batter campus
Powerful winds and heavy rainfall San Jose City College and Monday, overturning flooding class rooms and . Ri;~;hdt:u;'~! telephone lines. On Sunday winds ripped through campus knocking down trees and solar energy collecter. Kent campus security captain, said have been no serious problems SJCC because of the bad weather. The roofs of the women's locker and wings 100, 200 and 000 were exlJIIII<tuJtt: to hold as much water as it and the rain flooded und their gutters and poured classrooms and offices ·;;;;,,tldon<lay morning.
Puddles were scattered all over the campus and customdians went from room to room mopping up water.
Brydon, head of facility ces, claimed that these _,tt.llJdlln~~s were not designed for that of rain and that" the damage been estimated yet. "We are :ppom.tm~,eep•ing the roofs in as good of repair can' '
"We've had leaks before, but not floods, " said P .E . Instructor Grunhild Swanson, who was mopping up the water. "It's hazardous, it's dangerous and the school would be libel i_f anything happened."
"There isn't a building on campus that hasn't, in some way been touched," Brydon said. " I would not imagine that this would happen again ... " A pine tree between the 20 and 30 buildings was knocked over. Athletic fields were soaked with an over abundance of water looking like a small swampland. A lot of rain made its way into the women's locker room leaving the faculty members in there to clean up the mess.

Arsonists. cause Y $1,500 damage The campus was a busy place during the semester break. There was a fire, and several badly leaking roofs along with the scheduled events. On the night of Jan. 7 the Child Care building sufferef damage estimated at $1500 in a fire which cornpe~ seared the outside of the building. Several windows were broken and six small, child-sized chairs were destroyed, according to Capt. Kent Rose of the campus police. "Another ten minutes and there would have been real trouble,'' Rose said, noting that the fire was put out before major damage could occur. "Arson seemed to be the cause, but no one wqs apprehended," said Rose. Several rooms in the 100 and 000 wings had the opposite probl~m. They leaked after facing t~ flCSt heavy rains after two dry wtnters. Facilities Services Supervisor t Brydon describe_d t~; as an "inconveruence . to shampoo the carpets, the ceiling was stained," he Brydon's own office leaked. He Which had been I"PAIIWSD1aV4~ were still usable. you have a lot of heat _and ~ -~~-llexpansion on metal roofs, operu~~s show up which you don't find unW 1t rains,'' explained Brydon. He '""""ud,~t:u that it would cost 2 or 3 •-".....,.•uu dollars to repair the leaks.
Those were the unscheduled events, but campus facilities were used for some scheduled ones. The San Jose Mercury and News Baseball Clinic was held before 000 Little League and high school coaches in the theater . Bobby Winkles, manager of the Oakland A's and Tom Haller, former San Francisco Giants catcher and coach, were there. The event is held here every year . The Society for the Preservation and Encouragement of Barbershop Quartets put on a show in the theater Jan. 13. There was a lecture given by Prof. Otto Smith of the U.C. Berkeley E lectrical Engineering Dept. on solar energy on Jan. 11. 125 people attended. And c~aftsmen from Arizona and New Mexico displayed their wares at the Oyate'Ho Indian Club's Arts and Crafts festival , held in the auxiliary gym on Dec. 31 and Jan. 1. 400 attended.

5."9% hike in salary for facu lty Full-time instructors in the San Jose Community College District will receive a 5.9 percent salary increase and part-lime instructors a 6.5 percent increase as a result of an agreement approved by the board of trustees on Jan. 17. The two-year contract is the first settlement with the California Teachers Association under terms of the new collective bargaining legislation. The contract calls for salary increases to be retroactive from July 1, 1977, and provides additional fringe benefits. Certificated managemen t employees were granted a 5.68 percent mcrease and classified management employees received a 6.07 percent pay hike.
TREE TAKES A SPILL--One of the Gingko trees located io the grassy area between the science and fine arts buildings was one of the victims of the weekend's storm. Other problems included the wet Photo by David Brown telephone lines and campus-wide leaks.
Remodeled ·cosmetology and· dental facilities -'best' The cosmetology and dental facilities a t SJCC have been remodeled, and Director of Instruction Roberta Firetag says that they are the best in California, if not the whole U.S. "The old facility was not adequately designed," Firetag said, "and the equipment was too small to meet professwnal standards." Last semester classes were held for these two departments in the faculty lounge during construction. Now they are back in their original location in the building between the business building and the faculty offices. The remodeling has also brought on a complete overhaul in the scheduling for the dental assisting course. What was a two year dental assisting program is now a one yearmodule course. The new dental facility now has an eight chair clinic, five x-ray units and an auditorial room.
The cosmetology facility has more room now to service the needs of the department. The remodeling of the buildimz has orovided extra space to separate the beginning and con. tinuing classes. A model salon has given students me chance to handle the business end of their operation. This way they can now easily manage their own arpointments, profits and ordering o supplies. One of the major changes it has brought is that of attitudes, in both students and instructors as well as the patrons. "The sunlight an,d the windows affected me the most," said student Joei Mandoza. "My confidence kind of shot up since we moved into this building. I feel more professional in iL "
Enrol lment Up9%? Preliminary figures show day and evening enrollment at SJCC up by 9 end-ofthe percent above registration period last spring, but registrar Robert Brown says that enrollment may actually be down. This year about 800 apprenticed students were registered during the last week of Fall semester rather than during the normal registration period. They show up in this year 's early statistics, but not in the figures • for this time last year . Also, about 500 students registered late last year and Brown doesn't expect so many this spring. Brown's guess is that total enrollment will be about 6 percent lower than last year's when the final results are tabulated, in about a month. "Dropping enrollments seem to be a national thing, ·• he said. " When employme nt goes up people stay out of school."

He said, "We will continue to reduce staff by attrition in order to avoid termination if at all possible. If, however, enrollments decrease and/ or the State apportionment formula changes it may be necessary to further ~educe services and/ or staff in order to develop a balanced budget for 1978-79 and again for 1979-
another Sanders, Ric cosmetology student, added that even the patrons were grumpy about the previous facilities and at having been inconvenienced bv them. "I think it's outstanding. I feel excited about the new facility and the space and equipment available to us this semester as compared to previous semesters," student Debra Glasby added. "I feel the students are highly motivated, and because of that motivation more learning will take place," said Shirley Silveria.

Classified supervisory employees received a step increase of 2.5 percent in addition to a salary increase of 4.31 percent, plus fringe benefits. A 5 .07 percent salary increase was granted to confidential employees. In addition, the board of trustees approved moving the Fire Science program from San Jose City College to Jefferson High School in Santa Clara for the current semester. Lack of space at San Jose City College was cited as the reason for the move. In action during the semester break, the board approvea four-year contracts for the Chancellor, Vice Chancellor of Administrative Services, and the Presidents of SJCC and Evergreen Valley Colleges. These contracts will begin on July 1, 1978 and end June 30, 1982. A two-year contract for the Vice Chancellor of Educational Services was also approved. This contract begins on July 1, 1978 and ends June 30, 1980.

for such injustice IS always : " Well , she has a husba nd to t ake ca re of her, she really doesn't need it." A lthough p·a y d iscri mination on the basis of sex isn't as common th is year as it was in 1975, it st ill occurs. Even once is way too freq uent. Such organizations as "Stop ERA" and Women Who Want to Be Women" use the draft as the main object of thei r fight against t he ratification of the ERA. Virg inia Schlefy , head spokesperson for "Stop ERA", has sited her belief that that is the only reason for its proposition . Proponents are qu ick to point . o ut that t he draft law has long sincP expired after Nixon' s adm inistration. But the J'ossibility of it being rei ~stated has al ways countered that comeback . Actress Michelle Nichols w ho played Uhu ra of the famed' " Star Trek" TV series, had the best idea. Why should anyone be forced into the armed fo rces? Men deserve t he right to stay home just as much as women do. Alimony is anot her subject that people fee l would end with t he passing of the ERA. It is t rue, should it pass, that a lot of
" Section 1 : Equality of rights under the law shall not be denied or abridged by the Un ited States or any State on account of sex. " Section 2 : The Congress shall have the power to enforce, by appropriate legislatio n, the provisions of t his article. " Sect ion 3 : This amend ment shall t ake effect two years after the date of rat ificat io n." It's funny how three such s imple senteces could put such an import. ant country in such an upuo ar. But create contro versy it has. From Virginia Schlaf ly to Gloria Steinham everybody has their own special feel ings on this crucial sub· ject, and six out every ten U.S. citizens are for the ratif ication o f t h is proposed 27th amendment. Equal righ ts are someth ing all people should have, it doesn't matt er whether the pe rson is a woman, black o r gay, everyone deserves equal protection under t he law. Statistics have shown that for ' €very $ 5 men have made, woem of equal status o nl y receive $3. They have also shown that ment w ith just high school d iplo mas make as much -as woemn that have had fi ve years of college or mo re. The employer's " justification"
payments may be put to rest, but t he main goal of the ERA is not to grant it on- the basis o f sex. It is who deserves it more·-the man or the wo man- is the fact t hat really should be speculated o n. The purposes of t he ERA is not to condemn housewives. In fact if that is what the woman really wants to do , even the toughest supporters would swallow their pride and back her dec ision wit h t remendous impact. But let's put the shoe o n the other gender. If a man wants to be be a " house husband " , he is condemned; belittled , cal led a gigolo and a lousy example of manhood . Said President Jimmy Carter of this su bject : " ... As we remove barr iers which have denied w omen's participat ion in business and education and other fields, we also have the tremendous o pportun ity to give men the opportunity to be · fathe rs and husbands in the f inest sense of t hose terms .. ." . Some people take t he proposit ion of the ERA to the extreme by saying it will stagnate women's femininity and men's mascu linity and force upon the public unisex bathrooms.

Student Loa n s often g o unp aid ln. the past month, there has been extensive coverage in the med1a of t he federally funded stude nt loan programs. Most o.f t he cove rage noted that thousands of students receiving' student ~~ans were delinquent in repayment. A great number of t hese students have even filed bankruptcy upon grad uation, insuring they would not have to repay the loans. . T~e same problem exists in the San Jose Community College D1stnct .. A report from the dist rict board of t rustees shows t h at the Na~10na l Student Loan Program has loaned $ 6 mi llio n to approximately 3,000 students in t he district, since 1965. As of J une 30, .19?7, 69 percent of t he t otal loans and 50 percent of the p~mc1 p l e payf!lent of the loans in th e repayment st atus ~ere delmq uent. Th1s amounts to approximately $ 450,000 ~n arrear~ 121 days o r more and can on ly be construed as an 1 rr~spo ns1b l e attitude on the part of those students who have rece ived t hese loans. The cost of ~ece iving. an educat ion is high and perhaps in some. cases t he h1gh cost 1s not adequately justified. But t he fact r~ma 1 ns that a student receiving a federa l loa n to meet these h1gh costs also takes on the responsibility t o repay the loa n. Those students who do not repay t hese federally funded loans are not only cheating t he govern ment but a re also cheating t he very people they assoc iate with in t he ir daily l ives. We all pay taxes from which this loa n money is derived. San Jose City College is a f ree com m unit y coll ege at least for the students, but even t hey as taxpayers foot the b il l. Those who need to borrow money for thei r ed ucation shou ld be ab le to do . so .b~t those who bo rrow and do not repay the money make 1t ? 1ff1cult for need y studenfs to attend college.

igh Anxiety~ Spoofs Hitchcock By Margaret O'Brien Brooks' latest offering to movie-going public is "High An· released by Twentieth CeoFox. Brooks is not only t he star of f ilm, but aslo the producer, di· ~---r~·r.rnr, co-author, composer and He is totally immerged in this ion and yet it is not his It lacks a strong sto ry line insome scenes borders on plays Professor Richard world -renowned a ke, iatrist with ac raphobia (tear heights) who comes to Los An· les to take . over directorship of ' PsVchO'-'Neurotic· instit ute for :ery, Very Ne rvous. There he ;~k4enl:teiDC:_V rs the head nu rse (Cioris n) and the assistant head Harvey Korma n) who are keeping e people locked up and "rip· ing·-off" their families and estat es of fortunes. "H igh Anxiety" attempts to Hitchcock films by using I refere nces to three of his sus· " Vertigo", classics-· Psycho" and "The Birds." The references are sometimes obvious and surprisingly not e fu nn iest parts of the film .
In one instance, Thorndyke is being pursued by a flock of pi· geons. Frightened , he seeks shelter in an open shed, but the birds perch over him and one lands o n hi s head. Of course, his suit has gone from black to white. The sequence at first glance is pretty amusing, but afte r awhile it gets to be a bit ridiculous. On of t he funnier parts of the movie comes when the professor is having a drink at the piano bar with Victoria Brisbane (Madeline Kahn) . Upon request the professor reluc· tantl y takes the mike, only t o lose all inhibition and belt out the song " High Anxiety" in true Sinatra styl e. Because Brooks was both actor and d irector it was harci fo r him to both act and direct at the same t ime, so in addition to using the regular fi lming equipment, he also made use of a video playback system. This enabled him to re· hearse a scene and analyze it be· fore it was printed . In t he tinal analys1s, me film is not really up to Brooks' comic genius.

By Margaret O'Brien The Penny Plain Theatre is a San Jose ·· based company that creates pl ays for the hearing and non-hearing audiences. "We seek to reveal to an assem· bled group of humans the universal· ity of Iife's experiences, the Iiterature notes. To convey this to a non-hearing audience t hey use "SEE" sign lan· guage because it is exact and in that way style and syntax of lit· erature are retained. Bonda Lewis, 36, the director and founder of Penny Plain Theatre was trained as a dancer and cl~ssical actress. About two years ago she was asked by a friend to do a small performance at Hester School (an elementary school for the deaf.) " I was amazed at how receptive and inventive these kids were," said Lewis. "tvery show IS written and staged as a vehicle capable of taki ng audiences through a looking glass.
Currently the Penny Plain Theatre is presenting "An Evening of Performance Art" at the Eulipia Art Studio, 374 South 1st Street in San Jose. Adm ission is $2. Performances are at 7 p.m. every Sat· urday. These are not non-hearing performances. In addition to performing, the company also offers classes. This seasons offerings include " Physical and Historical Aspects c. f Acting" and " Improvisation and Mime." The name "Penny Plain Thea· tre" has its roots back in Victorian England. Then people purchased books that contained the most popular play of the season. They were purchased for "a penny plain or two tuppennce coloured" ; one penny for a plain copy or two Pennied for a copy with colored pictures. Through the years this phrase has come to mean, "that which is simple leaves a large part to the imagination."
meals a day, and transportation in Paris. The three instructo rs who went along on this trip, which was worth three units, were Nicole Amon (Language Arts), Ray McGuire (H is· tory). and Ramon Oeschger (A rt). While on this trip, t he group saw many exciting places and things. A few of these were Versailles, Char· tres, t he Louvre museum, Notre Dame and many cathedrals. The students were also required to keep a journal of their experiences.
According to Jaime Ashton , one o f the st udents o n the tr ip, the Parisians were very public people ;md could be seen walking around a a lot at night and conversing in cafes for hours. Another difference in Paris is t hat one will rarely see a cat roaming the streets, though the Parisians like dogs to the extent that one must watch -his step while walking on the sidewalks. Language was a problem for many o f t he students as their French was limited to "oui, oui" . In France there is no drinkmg age, and so there was much sam · ling of the Fre nch wine which turned out to be good and inex· pensive, said Miss Ashton. She also said that the pastry, coffee, and meat sauce were excellent.

Seven spikers ·qualify for Examiner GOmes By Paul LJoret Sports Editor Two individuals and two teams will be representing San Jose City College in the Examiner Indoor Games on Feb. 18 at the Cow Palace in San Francisco. SJCC's sprint medley quartet of Pat Halcon:tbe, Andre Phillips, Earnest Lew1s and Fred Harvey and the mile relay foursome of Greg Johnson, Phillips, Harvey , and Eugene Rachal posted impressive times during last Saturday's Examiner trials for the Examiner Games at SJCC. Brian Binau will be repres'enting the purple and gold in the pole vault, as he vaulted 15 feet, good enough for fourth place and a qualifying spot. Lewis, who not only qualified as part of the sprint medley and mile relay teams, also qualified in the 60 yard dash by finishing with the exceptionally fast time of 6.0. In the sprint medley, Hillcombe ran the first leg by clocking a 48.9 in the 440. Phillips and Lewis clocked a 21.~ and 20.7 in the 220 respectively while Harvey ran the final leg, the

Holidays 'bowled over' with excitement By Paul Uoret. Sports Editor NOW THAT EVERYBODY is back from the semester break and is finally relieved of the burden of watching weekend footba ll , it's time to review the more .colorful highlights of the past holiday season: the bowl games.
For t~ose of you who may h~ve forgotten, the first major televised b?wl game of th~ past season (or of 1977) was Dec. 19 when Nebraska defeated North Carolina 21 -17 in the Liberty Bowl. From that date until Jan. 2J when the National Conference defeated the American Conference 1~- 13 in th~ Pro Bowl, there were 20, that's right, count em) telev1sed encounters that were brought " live and in color" to mill ions of crazed fans throughout the country. Besides the popular New Year's Day bowls (incidently on Jan .. du ~ to the National Football League's priority on schedulmg 1ts conference championships on the 1st,there were. the ann ual assortment of other fruits, vegetables and the like. The inaugural "Hall of Fame Classic" w~ the first of three newly concoctioned bowls the others being the "Can-Am Bowl" and the "Challenge Bowl." In the "Classic," a Birmingham, Ala. crowd saw Maryland tip Minnesota by a 17-7 count The other two saw the American college all-stars defeat Canada's college elite by a 22-7 score ~nd the Pacific-- Eight conference edge the Big Ten, 27-20 1n the Can-Am and Challenge respectively. ~HE BAY AREA was represented by Stanford's Cardinals who knocked off Louisiana State's Tigers, 24-14 in t he Sun Bowl on New Year's Eve, while southern California was represented by USC who ripped Texas A & M 47-28 in the Bluebonnet Bowl that same day.
However, the most exciting battles were those which were held at the most popular sites. Alaba ma's Crimson Tide showed why they should have b_een voted num~er. one in the nation with a most im presSive 35-6 demollshmg of Ohio State, while Notre Dame "stunned" Texas, 38-10 in the Cotton Bowl. Yet the day and season belonged to Arkansas and Washi ngton, as each posted exciting and shocking triumphs in the Orange and Rose Bowls respective ly. . Arkansas' 3 1-6 blitz of Oklahoma truly depicted how stze can somehow be deceiving, as the lightning--fast Razorback defense short--ciruited Oklahoma's big offensive line and whirlwind wishbone. On the other hand a true team effort shone as Washington's Huskies continued Michigan's bowl blues with a 27 -20 verdict. THEN THERE WAS the inevitable Super Bowl where Dallas doomed Denver 27-10. The presence of Denver's Orange Crush defense was felt, but the presence of their offense was not. For those who sympathized for the Broncos, don't worry, because they may be back next season. They resemble the '71_ Miami Dolphins in some ways; and remember befo.re the1r two Super Bowl wins they also lost to Dallas, 24-3 in number VI. At long last the footba ll season is fi nally over. Now all of you who are sports fanatics can look forward to the ~losing of the basketball and hockey seasons and the openmg of baseball season, as we await the famous cry of the umpire: "Play ball!"

*Spring scoreboard* GOLF
It will be an "exciting season"
according to golf coach Harley Dow as the 1978 edition of San Jose City College's divot-takers heads into league action. Coach Dow explained that this year's squad, which opened the season Thursday against West Valley and faces Foothill today at the Villages, is very equal, pointing to the list of Jag golfers which qualified for the team. Heading the list was sophomore Mike McMaster (Leland) who notched a 72.5 over 10 rounds. Mike is the youngest of four McMaster brothers who have competed in golf at SJCC over the past years. All have been first-rate competitors and, according to Dow, Mike is no exception. Second on the list is Rick Vargas a sophomore from Ayer who shot 75.7. Following Vargas was Tim Albrecht, a fresh man from Serramonte who collected a 76.4. Phil Perez, another Freshman (Piedmont Hills ) is fourth after a
a
77.1 mark, while returning soph Shawn McEntee (Pioneer) is fifth on the ladder. Other first year golf members are freshmen Guy Jenness (Willow Glen), Rick Soto (Mitty) who tallied a 78.2, Ed Hester CAyer) who shot a 78.4, and Mike Veta (Leland ) who recorded a 79.8 score. Craig Stewart, a transfer from the University of Anzona.and a graduate of Ayer High School, 1s the lOth golfer on the list. Dow commented that there will be plenty of competition within the team, as the Jaguars are comprised of "equal players." MEN'S TENNIS The San J ose City Col lege t ennis squad began its season with a win over College of Alameda at Alameda last Fril'lay. Final score was SJCC 6 - 3 over College of Alameda . The game aga inst Hartnell last Tuesday was cancelled due to the rains, and the game against Evergreen today has been cancelled.

When one looks at the current '77'78 San Jose City College cagers, one can hardly help but notice who t~e key figure is in leading the Jags tn their continued success. On Jan . 31, 6-7 sophomore forwa~d Victor Conyers scored 31 pomts m leading the Jaguars to .a k~y 65-55 triumph over San Franc1sco s Rams before a capacity crowd of nearly 1500 in the Jaguar gym . This happened after he was named Golden Gate Conference player of the w~ek for scoring 41 points and collectmg 21 rebounds in games against Laney and Chabot a week earlier. However , this was only the beginning. . Last Friday, Conyers tallied .a school-tying mark of 52 pomts m leading the Jags to a 97-54 r out of the San Mateo Bulldogs before a co_zy crowd at the SJCC court. The wm, coupled with De Anza 's stunning upset of previous league-leader Foothill enabled the purple and gold to jump 'into a first place tie with the Owls and the CCSF Rams. Conyers'· 52 point total tied a school mark set by Jack Searfoss in 1960, and his 16 free throws as well as 23 attempts are one-game school marks . The soph from Lick grab~ a game-leading 19 rebounds wh1le tallying 18 of 27 field goals in pacing the Jags, who hit 77 percent of their first half shots. It could not have been a better way to start the second half of the season, for the Jags or Conyers, as the SJCC SAN MATEO (0·10154 Nichols 5 0·2 10, Blackmon 5 0-{) hoopsters increased their league Jackson 3 2-2 8, Burroughs 1 5-7 record to 8-2.

Phillips, in the third leg, was timed a_t 48.9 while Harvey finished the final leg at 48.6 for a total team time of 3:17.6. Track coach Steve Haas explained that H~lcombe was supposed to run the mile relay, but a slight injury forced Haas to substitute him with Rachal. Lewis' win in the 60 yard dash was an exceptional time according to Haas, as was Ken Meriweather's 6.1 time and third place finish in the same event. In non-qualifying events Bill Traug~bar threw a lifetime best of 52-1 in ~e shot put while Thurliss ~ibbs leaped seven feet in the high JUmp. Haas noted that both of these marks were exceptional as well especially since both are better to o~ equal to (as in Gibbs case) last year's bests so early in the season. Also standing out was John Kennedy, who won the 60 yard high hurdles at 7.4. "This was outstanding in the sense that he had not run in two years," Haas mentioned.
After watching approximately 20 bowl games, both college and pro, it is still a bit hard to leave their memories behind.

"We avenged our season losses" was the way Coach Sam Huerta explained the results of last Friday's Nor-Cal wrestling tourney at Ohlone. Three matment qualified for the state tourney, as the Jaguars placed ~.,ren members in the NorCal standings, while finishing in second place behind Chabot. Rick Bracamonte, Marvin Slater, and George Crowder advanced to the state tourney, which started Thursday and continues through Sunday. Bracamonte, who was 12-2 during the past Golden Gate Conference season, was 3~1 for the day, losing only to Cartier of Cabrillo, the num ber-one ranked wrestler in the state, in the 134 lb. class. Crowder was equally unlucky, as he lost to th~ sl.;lte's number-one ranked wrestler in the 142 lb. class, West Valley's Mi-ke Fredenburg. However Crowder won four of five matches during ~e course of the day . Marvm Slater, nicknamed "Slaughter" by his teammates def•aul ted in the finals in the 150 lb: class due to an injury. Huerta expla ined that Slater has risen to the occ~ssion over the past season after gettmg off to a bad start early in the year. Huerta was pleased with the performance of the squad as H:tey "avenged" the past season. The grapplers finished fifth in the conference while garnering a 3-3-1 league mark (9-4-1 overall). However, the Jaguar matmen managed to climb the ladder in the NorCal tourney and finish ahead of everybody excep,t Chabot, this year's GGC champs. Huerta explained that bad luck separated three other Jaguars from
advancing to the state finals. Dan Dominguez (126 lbs.), Lawrence (118 lbs. l , and Bowron 067 lbs. ) narrowly the state tourney, as Domillllll finished fifth and Lawrence Bowron each finished sixth,
