New five year construction plan ·

•

SJCC to have $15.8-mill I On lo.ok

By Joan Ward

Removal of the temporaries and the addition of 600 new parking spaces is 26th on the list in the new plan.

Other projects planned are: a new $1.2 million central -.Jtility plant, a $1 .1 million addition and re· modeling of the libra ry, the addition of solar heating to th~ adm ission and records office, remodeling of the d1esel and outdoor construction laboratories, and the addition of a portable electronics office.

,,_....a"''"• the 25 year old temporary classroom ngs at the south_ end ·o t the campus, will be for .some t1me to come. And adequate space w1ll be a problem until 1983.

In add ition, the present science building will be converted into general classroom use, faculty offices, language labs, and possibly a physically handicapped center.

"City College has an outstanding instructional

staff and well establi~hed programs in general, transfer and occupational areas. However, physical facilities are inadequate to meet program needs," said Mowry.

He also said , "The array of vocational educational offerings is part icularly strong and one which any other community college in the ·state would be hard pressed to match for scope and q..:ality. Even with these assets, City College has tremendous liabilities unmatched by any other community college in the state. Many of these liabilities are directly related to the physical plant at City College. The Five- Year Plan attempts to capitalize on the assets and as far as possible eliminate the liabilit ies."

1n comments after presentation of the plan, Board President Yancy L. Williams said, ''City College campus is not a college campus. It is an outmoded vocational school." Accordi ng to Williams even though enrollment at City College has declined .th is year, construction is necessary to serve the educational needs of the community .

In addition to improvements at City Col lege, the current F ive- Year Plan includes $20 million for construction at Evergreen Valley College and approximately $700,000 for an addition and remodeling of the district offices and construction of a district warehouse.

Funding is largely through the 1967 Community

College Construction Act.

ASB still at Standstill under 1972 constitutio n

By David C. Brown ASB President Roben Ramirez who is trying to run student govern: ment under the 1972 constitution says that he was told by Dean of Students T.J . Owens that this could not be done as the 1972 constitution has been revised and approved · since then.

Ram1rez turther added that be· cause of Owen's decision the activi· ties of student government were at a stand still until the matter was re· solved with the administration.

Owens who was not present at the Mar. l meeting was unavailable for comment.

During the March 1 meeting of the ASB council, Ramirez told those present that he was going to take the matter of the 1977 constitution to the Board of Trustees. He went on to say that he hoped to tma out why certain areas of the constitutution that were voted on by the ASB council and the general student body were changed by the Board.

One of the areas in question con· cerns the council's operating with· out the presence of the advisor at the meetings . This was voted on and passed by the ASB and the stu· dent dody in May of 1975 and then changed by the Board in July of 1975.

Esparza did her student teaching at SJCC and became a member of the faculty in 1965.

She became the t aculty adv•~or for Chicano students and was active in the Chicano movement at SJCC SJSU from 1965 to 196~. . This movement which was ongmally called the' Mexican-Amencan Stu· dent Confederation, has now be · . come Somas Raza.

According to Esparza, Ch•cano student s became more and more active at SJCC and after a .long struggle persuaded the adm•n •stra· t ion to hire two Chicano counsel · ors. It was about this time that bl ack studies also began at SJ CC. In addition to her involvement in the Ch1cano movement, Espa~~a Was involved in the Cooperat•vc Learning Program. She was a de·

Esparza also found time to work with pre-school children and was on the board of directors of St. Mark's Pre-school. She became interim director of writing policy and pro· grams for the school.

Although her main interest lies in anthropology adn archeology, she has take seminars in paleo· graphy, which is reading old manuscripts and working with old manu· scripts in both national and church archives. "And before you knew it, I was actually working in ethno· history instead of in archeology," said Esparza.

Ethno·history is history from a different viewpoint. You are deal· ing with written history and doing basically the same thing an archeol· agist would do only using written documents. You ilrP. trvinu to reconstruct a population and a l1fe· style oasea on the written word rather than on the remains of their c ulture as an archeolgist would in the field ," she said.

Esparza has spent two sum.ners working on an archeological project sponsored by SJSU at Joven-Weep National Park in Utah. She plans to spend next summer in Mexico working on her masters degree in anthropolgy.

Esparza's husband Juventino 1s a counselor and advisor at Oaks College at U.C. Santa Cruz.

TV's 'New English'

By Margaret O'Brien

Today there is a definite push toward the need for better education and back to the three "R's" (read· ing, writing and arithmetic) . Yet one of the most in· fluential facets of our society, television advertising, cannot or does not use correct English grammar.

I'm not referring to errors that only a professor of English for 99 years could detect, but errors that are noticeable even to a lowly newspaper reporter.

One error that is especially annoying is in a com· mercial about toilet paper. In this particular case, a man is talking to a little girl and having her pro· nounce the word "stroft," because the tissue is strong and soft--a Ia stroft.

According to the Random House Dictionary there is no such word as stroft. So, here we have a man teaching a youngster how to read non-existent words.

Another mistake was made by a major cigarette company whose long-running ad slogan stated that "Winston tastes good like a cigarette should." In reality the word "as" should have been used in place of like.

These are unfortunately only a few of the errors that are made in advertising grammar.

The shame of it is though, that advertising execu· tives are being paid tho'usands of doll ars a year to develop and approve ads to be used, but they still allow or are unaware of the errors that sli p through.

I will admit that perhaps this argument is somewhat "nit-picky," b\lt television mo re t han any other media is the most influential in our lives.

And because television is so influential, it also has the most responsibility to make certain that what is broadcast over its waves is correct.

Mon ey, money, mon ey

Speakout Woul.d you vote for Jarvis-Gann ? f¥MO,IM.

In American society today, goal of a majority of the people to gain a considerable amount money--honestly or dish The trend today is very m istic and one in which Pv~·rvth;• seems to have a material v h ind it. If it doesn't have a value, it isn't wo rth anything.

For instance, when a person given a valuable object he or run out and get it insured. indicates that the person the material value more than tnought ot love or gtvmg behtna They are trying t o put a price love and friendship.

Consider how children taught this goal. During t he ch life he is conditio ned to put a;::;:::::4-- - sign on everythi ng he does. ren are given allowances when clean up their room, the yard, help with the housework. All does 'is teach the child to do things for the reason of money, not out of respect, ence, or love for his parents.

By bribing ch ildren with it teaches them to value above all else. It may teach that they can buy respect or fri with money. Valuing money than honesty is why they caught for embezzlement or cheating later on in life.

Material values and goals . strengthened by the media. has anyone ever seen a comme in .which the person says that don't have a stereo, car or bed and that they are nco·f..,.·tlul happy without them? This mercial would be absurd since it defeats the purpose of advertisement which is to make people think they need what is being ad· vertised, whether or not they do.

However, money is not "the root of all evil." Shakespeare said, "There is noth ing either good or bad but th inking that makes it so."

Therefore, money is not wrong but it should not be valued more than love and honor.

Patricia Griffin: Yes, I would vote for it.

Because the property owners have been supporting too many people entirely, and I think it's time to do something about it. I think our government should start spending less; they should do the cutting instead of increasing our taxes all the time.

Ray Lobato: I know nothing about it.

·Editorial

lriitiative process -the public voice INITIATIVE : The process by wh ich, through pet1t1on people may write laws for submission to voters. ' Twenty-two stateshave a state-wide initiative 25 states have a state-wide referendum and 14 states have a statewide recall . California became the 10th state to provide for the initia-· trve and referendum process in its constitution on Oct. 10, 1911.

The ba~le for the initiative amendment was led by then governor Hrram Johnson and passed by a vote in a special election of the leqislature, of more th~n three to on~.

In 1976 the Nuclear Safeguards Initiative, Proposition 15 was able to reach the June ballot. A week prior to the election, the California legislature passed their own version of nuclear safeguards. Proposition 15 was defeated.

Once again the people of California have used the threat of the initiative process to spur the state legislature into action.

The people of California want and need tax relief. The voters have appealed for some type of relief to no avail. As a result they have signed their names to a petition circulated by Mr. Jarvis and Mr. Gann. · Over .1.2 million signatures were gathered in shopping centers, college campuses and other public places. Only 8 percent of the California voters or about 500,000 signatures were needed to qualify the petition as Proposition 13 the Jarvis-Gann initiative. ' In Sacramento the state legislature' and Governor Brown rallied around the flag and met the problem head on. In a couple of weeks they accomplished what they hadn't been.able to do in years. Tax relief in t he form of the Behr Bill. . The elected representatives in Sacramento are put there to look out for the best int erest of their constituents. But it would seem that once there, they become involved in only those issues that guarantee their re-election.

It can only be construed as a sad commentary on govern· mer:t when the only way the p~blic can institute change is by t a k rng t he governmental process rnto their own hands.

When you exercise your right to vote in June it might be worthwhile to whisper a simple thanks to Gov. Johnson and h is foresight in giving California voters the initiative process.

The Jarvis-Gann initiative may not be adopted by California voters, but it has served a worthwhile cause.

1977 was a good year for the U.S. Customs Service. From the travelers passing through its 300 ports of entry, the Service collect· ed more than $6.5 billion i.n duties and taxes for the US Treasury, up 15 percent from calendar year 1976.

Trinket taxes aren't all they collected, though. During the year, Customs officials seized 691 tons . of marijuana , 912 pounds of cocaine1 18,524 pounds of hashish, 250 pounds of heroin, and 8.6 million oills. The total street value of the dru~s comes to $866 million.

According to a Custom Service release, detector dogs are the in· spector's best friend. A trained dog and his handler accomplish in minutes what it would take an in· spector hours or days to do. Dogs go through up to 1,000 units of mail per hour, and sniff through a vehicle crossing the border in four to six minutes. For a Customs in· spector, the mail check would take a week and the vehicle search could take half an hour.

Drug-sniffing dogs, utilized since 1970, aided last year in the seizure of drugs valued at some $7 million.

Some of their more innovative discoveries include these busts: - At Miami International Airport, Customs K-9 "Notcha" nosed out a package of books in the mailroom.

The front and back covers of the books contained one pound of cocaine.

- In Los Angeles, detector dog "Cole" caught the whiff of marijuana in a shipment of wicker baskets. A check of the merchandise turned up 61 pounds of the weed in the false bottoms of eight baskets.

-At Los Angeles International Airport, Customs canines "Weeble" and "Biackie" scammed in on a shipment from the Far East. Some 250 pounds of hashish from Nepal was found sewn into quilts wrapped in bales.

A Customs spokesman said that while the dogs successes can be counted in the number and value of seizures made, their greatest service may be the deterrent effect of their presence.

Cathy Lindahn: No. Because I don't want to have to see the college students here have to pay higher tuition.

Vass: No. Because I think it's dangerous; there are no alternatives. They want to do this yeat they don't have any . alternatives for the money. They want to cut the taxes and that would cut the revenues coming in and there are no other revenues to make up for it, and I think it would affect the schools and a lot of public services.

Bli.n d experience art "Traditionally, the arts have not been accessible to the blind because it was thought, since they could not see, it was not necessary for them to create," says Martin Isaacson.

Isaacson coordinated a unique conference sponsored by University Extension at UCLA, the Braille Institute of American and the American Foundation for the Blind to explore new ways of teaching arts and crafts to the blind and visually handicapped. " This 1s the first time this group of educators representing arts and crafts a nd other disciplines will have sat down to examine all of the implications of teaching art to the visually impaired and blind. It is essentially a discovery that blind people can have esthetic occasions and can express themselves through the a rts ," Isaacson says.

The c onference involved instructors, administrators , program planners, researchers, consultants and others ac tive in education for the blind.

Dr . Yasha Lisenco, author of Art Not By Eye, published by the American Foundation for the Blind (1971), wrote, " People are enriched by aesthetic experiences. The need for such experiences exist whether i.he TndlVIauals are sighted or blind."

This is a logical. but traditionally misunderstood premise, because blind and visually impaired people continue to be short-changed by rehabi litation programs which concentrate on the " production line"

aspects of art therapy and ignore the imaginative and expressive aspects that art can draw from every human being, according to Dr. W. Dwaine Greer, president of the California Art Education Association.

Stu de n t un ion foo d ne ed s im p rov em en t

By Adrienn e Foster Some students at San Jose City College· have similar opinions about the campus' student union. Many agreed that the atmosph ere is nice, but that the food is bad.

Shortly before the end of last semester , Guckenh eimer, SJCC's took service outlet, began wallpapering its serving areqs to give , .. - ·.-M .t hem more"ilolor. • "Our main goal," said Willey Yee, area supervisor for the corporation, "is to improve the food service facilities to make them more enticing to the public.

Guckenhelmer is also trying to involve students more with their purchasing. The do-it-you rself sand· wich and salad bars were deve bped for that reaSQn. T he price of the sanwiches have left quite a few people irritated.

At Guckenh eimer's 25 cents an

ounce, some of these patrons feel they would be g.etting a better dea• at Togo's, a popular sandwic h eatery with various location s throughout the Bay Area.

Yee said that prices are establish · ed by charging cost plus ten per cent. The portion used to weigh the sandwiches for pricing has been approved by the county, but he didn't know whether somebod y was going to come out to put a sticker on it. A decal certifyin g county approval is required by law but is not on the scale.

"I like atmosph ere and the music," said student Nancy Kelstrup. "It's a nice place to meet friends. The food is condem ned."

While some students find the food servied in the student union tolerable , other students share Ms. Kelstrup 's views. They all feel the prices are high.

Can the ears bear 'color' annou~cing? ·

By Paul Lloret Sports Editor IT IS TRUE that sometimes one's ears may deceive him, especially when he listens to one of the many live sporting events on television or radio, or, for that matter, anything broadcast on televis-ion.

It is also true that a person's eyes may also deceive him, especially if what one sees has just differed from what one has heard.

What does any of this relate to one may dizzi ly ask? It relates to the viewer and listener of sports broadcasts on TV and radio.

With the ever-increasing broadcasting of sports, has come, besides the many mistakes voiced by the "unskill· ed," the color announcer, who helps the p lay-by-play "knowledgeable" present the action by adding " color" during breaks and pauses. Also, the birth of broadcasting teams has shattered the sports world in helping to add the " something" to the game.

The question is this: have the additon of these new broadcasting innovations helped in lowering vocal errors and in presenting the action and facts to the viewer? In some cases yes, in others no.

WITH THE ADDITION of these "innovations" have come the inept broadcasters: either the pretty blonde who is there to attract the viewer or the former jock who is not as talented in the pressbox as he was on the field .

Locally, the Bay Area is lucky enough to have a variety of broadcasters who are knowledgeable as well as "colorful." Tom Janis (Channel 7, KGO, sports director), Art Eckman (Channel 4, KRON, sports director), and exDetroit Lion Wayne Walker (Channel 5, KPIX) are a few of the names of those who present their material " decently."

To counter these elite few are the extremely terrible Gary Park (Channel 2, KTVU) and Tony Conigliaro (Channel 7, KGO) who not only are mistake-prone but much too voicy and opinionated .

The play-by-play king of the Bay Area is definitely Bill King, the voice -of the Warriors and the Raiders. He tends t o be opinionated, but he does not let it interfere with his extremely brilliant broadcasting; unlike the two aforementioned above. The play -by-play goat is Hank Gl"eenwald with the first runner-up award going to the lucky Gary Park . Both go off on endless t angents while broadcast ing, hence putting viewers to sleep or into space.

NATIONALLY, THERE ARE many great announcers.

NBC has Jim Simpson, ABC has Keith Jackson, and CBS has the duo of Pat Summerall and Tom Brookshier as well as lindsey Nelson and Vin Skully. Then there is Humble Howard Cosell, who is a saint compared to the following: Joe Garagiola (NBC), Phyllis George (CBS) pret ty yes, but only interested wit h the Dallas Cowboys, and her "teammat e" Brent Musbarger (who announces like Limburger cheese smells). These are only a few of the "zingers" t hat the networks have offered.

To answ er t he previous question of wh ether th e color announcers and " team" innovations help, the overa ll answer is yes, especially in t he case of ABC's Monday Night Football t rio of Fra nk Gifford , Don Meredith, and Cosell, which comb ine accuracy w ith entertainment. But for those few who are good, there are th e many who are sub-par and inaccurate. Those few seem to t aint t he "color" f ield--a fi eld wh ich, if used properly, at times adds some humor, insight, and interest to a game.

Unfort unat el y for t he f an, he will just have to bear with th ose unskilled vo ices· until either a) t he " inept ones" disappear, b ) the " unbearable" ones dissipate, or c) the fan himself changes the channel to f ind a more sophist icat ed and interest ing voice.

Or we might as ·well turn down t he vo lume and give our ears a rest .

( Sprin9 scoreboard ) SWIMMING San Jose City Col lege's men's sw im team posted their second league victory of the year with a 72-39 Golden Gat e Confe rence w in o ver Chabot in Hayward last Friday _ The Jags wil l face San Francisco and Diablo Valley in a 3 p.m. meet today in Concord.

Once again the freestyle proved to be t he Jagua rs' st rongest stroke, as SJCC swept all of tlie free events. J eff Coffin, Gary Mort, Stan Cheu and Gary Korpela teamed up to capture the 400 medley relay, posting a 4 : 13.7.

The 400 freestyle relay quartet of Bob Blashill, Mark Holderman, Korpela and Rick Ranzau were also victorious wtih a w inning time of 3 :28.1 to their credit.

In individual events, Mike Marshall and Blashill each captured two, while Ranzau. Cheu and Mike Clark captured single w ins.

Marshall posted wins in the 200 free and 500 free w ith respect ive times of 1:49.9 and 4 :59.9. Blashill recorded wins in the 1000 free and 200 meter butterfly at 10:23.4 and 2 :06.4 respecti vely .

Meanwhile Clark clocked a 52.6 in the 100 free for a triumph , while Ranzau was a' victor in the 50 met er free at 22 .9 . Ch eu won the 200 meter breast-stroke at 2 :29. 1.

The women's team, however, lost its second league match of the season, 51 -37 to Chabot.

Defeat Laney;· Can.ada

Cagers win GGC playoffs, a d v a n c e to state ·t o-u r n e y

By Paul Lloret Sports Editor San Jose City College's Jag uar cagers earned a berth in the StarKist Commu nity Co llege basketball tournament by defeating both Laney and Canad a to w in the Golden Gate Conference playoffs last Tuesday and Wed nesday at De Anza.

The Jaguars, led by Daryl Westmoreland 's 22 point performance, gained th e t rip to Lbng Beach by defeating Canada , 67·6 1 in the finals. (Due t o press dead· lines mo re details will be ava il· able in next week's sports p age .)

The th ird t1me was the charm for both SJCC and Canad a, as each posted surpri sing victories in the first round of the playoffs.

The Jaguars, who had lost two previous decisions to Laney 's Eagles, edged the Oakland club, 7878-76 last Tuesday while the Col ts, after two league losses to Footh ill, upset the Owls, 49-38.

Unlike the games in which t he Jags lost to Laney, the purple and gold took an early lead and neve r relinquished it, in posting the hardfought victory.

The Jaguars bu ilt an early seven point lead midway t hrough the first half before return ing to the locker· room at the intermission with a 37-32 lead .

In the second half, the Jaguars added to their lead, mainly d ue to the boardwork of Victo r Conyers and Edd ie Jefferson, as each gathe red 11 rebounds. Two Rennay Freeman free th rows gave SJCC their biggest lead of the night at 51-40 with 12 m inutes to go, and it seemed as if the J aguars were on their way to an easy win.

However, like t hree weeks ago when the Jaguars lost a 14 point lead in losing to t he Eagles at home, Laney began to press SJCC, forcing at on point four consecutive J ag uar turnovers. In a span a little o ver a minute and a half the Eagles cut a 53-42 SJCC lead to 53-51, gaining eight consecut ive po ints in the process, to remain in t he game.

The Jaguars, who co nt i n ~ed to hold the slim lead throughout the remainder of the contest, seemingly slipped away when guard Michael Bryant canned t h ree straight hoops in giving the purple and gold a 70-64 lead. However, four straight points by Laney's Chico Wh ite and an exchange of hoops _ saw

of the Laney players themselves who got into foul trou ble early in the latter hJif. Robert Grissom, Larry Holltday and Woodfork (three of ·Laney's most talented players) all fouled out in th~> final mmutes further helping SJCC. In the Canada victory, guard Dary l Barbour and forwa rd An· thony Perkins tallied 13 and 12 points respectively in leading the Colts in their upset of Footh ill.

Against San F rancisco last Friday, the Jaguars ~nded their regular season in a d istu rbing fashion by fall ing to San Francisco, 85·56 in the City The Rams' unusually easy w in enabled them to clinch t he Golden Gate Conference crown and the automatic berth in the state tournament in Fresno Long Beach.

• Clinched league t1t le & automatic be rth in state tourney x Cli nched playoff spot

Jag nine nabs first victory The San J ose City College base· ball squad let o ut a little bit of their frustrations last Tuesd ay , as they co mbi ned good pitchi ng wit h powe r hitting in earning a 12-1 t riumph o ver t he h apless Ch abot Gladiators at SJCC. The J ags accou nted for nine runs in the first two innings in gaining their fi rst league win of the year.

Mike righthander Starting Couchee went the distance in allowing the Gljids onl y th ree hits. The t ransfer from San Diego State struck out ten in bo ost ing his league pitching reconrd to 1-1.

Don Deatherage , Mike Schneickert, and Roger Scala each cont ributed towering round-trippers in t he decisive victory .

The win offset a loss to Laney a da y earl ier.

It may have taken awhi le for Laney designated hitter Jose Perez to get warmed up, but when he did , he sparked Laney t o a 9·6 victory o ver t he Jaguars last Monday.

In a game which was rained o ut last Thu rsday (Mar. 2) in Oakland, Perez struck out twice in his f irst coup le of appea rances at the plate.

However, in the seventh inning, Perez greeted Jaguar righthander Alan Hatley's first offering over the right field fence to narrow a Jaguar lead to 4· 2. An inning later, Perez st epped up to the p late with the bases loaded and the score tied at fo ur apiece and· delivered a t worun dou ble to right, giving Laney a 64 lead which they never relenq uished.

The Eagles then proceeded to score twice more the the explosive fi ve run eight h inning to capture their second Go lden Gate Conference win in two games.

The dubious inning began with Jaguar starter Hatley issu ing a walk to Eagle catcher Greg Thompson.
