Yoder elected ASB president By Elyse Jacobsen Staff Writer
Marie Yoder, 27, Public Relations major, is the new ASB president. Yoder won a close victory over competitor, Elizabeth Hopkins with 76 of the totall46 presidential votes cast, with Hopkins receiving 64 votes. Yoder is replacing Kim McDonald who was elected ASB president for the spring semester. As Area IV Liason for California Student Association of Community Colleges, and Advertising Manager for theTimes, Yoder said that because of her new responsibility as president she will not keeping her "Ad's" job next fall. " I won't continue as advertising manager, I would however, like to continue writing for the school paper," said Yoder. "I wanted more responsibility in the student council, I didn't expect to take this responsibility so soon, but I'm looking forward to the challenge," said Yoder, who has had no prior experience in student government besides serving as CAL SACC represent-
ative. When asked what she planned to do for SJCC she replied, "I still have to get together with Kim McDonald to discuss the plans for the campus. I would like to work on having more unity in the student body and more student involvement in school activities. I would also like the students to become more informed on camous issues."
"I plan to build on the stable foundation that has already been established." -Marie Yoder Four other offices were on the ballot, vice president, Administrative Assistant, Director of Finance, and student trustee. Anthony Jones and Erasmo Romo tied for Vice President. Frances King was voted Administrative Assistant, Tony Wang Director of Finance, and Charlina Harshbarger for student
trustee. The run-off will be held in the Student Union on Friday, May 8 for the vice president's position. Both Jones and Romo are confident that they have something to contribute to City College. "I think I can contribute to the entire school as well as the students, I feel we should not only believe in the officers, but ourselves as well, and be proud of the job we have," said Jones. "I can contribute more constructive ideas as a whole for the benefit of the students," said Romo. "I believe that to become a good leader one has to Jearn how to become a good servant," he added. Results of the run-off will be posted in the student union the following week. More complete results were unavailable due to the inability of the election commission to function under such a tight time restraint.

By Brenda Yesko Tzmes Editor Continued disagreements over district employees who belong to discriminatory organizations may result in a cut-off of support for City College's highly touted Women's History Celebration. The Santa Clara County Commission on the Status of Women, has lent its name, organizational help and fmancial support to the event, which began in 1986.
In a letter to district trustees, the commission stated that it would drop its support of the event if the college district employees' names "appeared in association with any organization which discriminates by policy ... " The commission feefs that its name "is on the line" in the battle between college teachers and officials which started in March when the San Jose/Evergreen District trustees voted to stop using public money to reimburse
Awards to Times Members of the Times staff won three awards, including one · first"place, in the California community college journalism conference held over last weekend in Fresno. Fonner Times editor Deborah Kerr received a ftrSt-place award for front page layout and E. Mark Moreno, a former editorial page editor, took a third-place award in the feature story category. . ln addition, :Times editor Brenda Yesko received an hon· · orable metion for sports news writing. Each of these awards where from the conference's mail-in contest · •. Six members of the Times staff and advisor Art Carey attended the conference, which attacted over 600 students and ,instructors from all over the state. Nearly sixty community . 'colleges were represented. The. three day conference which began Friday afternoon. consisted of workshops on reporting, editing and photography and various "on the spot" writmg and photographic contests.
admln1strators who attend allmale clubs. The District Board acted after the District Faculty Senate passed a resolution demanding that no employees participate in organizations that discriminate during regular district. While the resolution seemed to satisfy some teachers, most felt that the trustees were over looking the moral issue. Faculty Senate president David Yancey and Senate representative, Phil Crawford are concerned that the trustees have "avoided taking a moral stand." Following the passing of this first resolution, members of the Senate including Yancey and Crawford drew up a second resolution requesting that City College president Dr. Byron Skinner resign from the Rotary. Skinner,who is credited with creating the Women's History Celebration concept and being one of its main supporters, is also a member of the Rotary. He has previously stated that he will not resign from the discriminatory club because he feels he can "work from the inside" at getting women admitted. Both sides are awaiting a U.S. Supreme Court ruling on the issue.
Pot lucks and food sales for fundraising will continue on campus, District trustees decided April21. At this meeting, District Chancellor Dr. Richard Goff requested that perishable foods prepared in homes not be brought to campus for sales because of certain California health laws which prohibit this. Goff conferred with Santa Clara County Health Department Supervisor Frank 0 ' Sullivan concerning the Health and Safety Codes that may have been involved. In a memo to members of the administration and faculty, Goff concluded that it "is against California law to sell perishable food prepared in homes" on campus Had action been taken, ASB fundraisers and those of other campus clubs would have been unable to continue sales. Former ASB president Kim McDonald contested Goffs proposed action, citing another ordinance of the Health Codes which stated that occasional food sales for non-profit organizations were permitted. The occasional sales could occur no more than
three times within a ninty-day period. Since the City College hasn't had any incidents of food poisoning complaints from the health department, the board members voted three to two to keep against taking any action on the matter.

Abstinence can combat A.I. D.S. By Frances King Staff Writer
fm writing in response to the "AIDS Knowledge As Your Weapon" viewpoint by Jeffery Dillion, which appeared in the April 9 issue of the Times. This country has had its sexual revolution and the price we are paying is AIDS. Stop in the name of love, wait until you get married or if you have enough money to hire your own doctor to check out your lovers in your home. With lots of lovers you could start your own blood bank or in a way you could be the modem vampire, taking blood for love. Return to God's Law. This natiqn needs to clean up its act, we have a chance to repent the legacy
Letter
Editorial
Academics first The administration and faculty of San, Jose City College are currently searching for ways to raise lagging enrollment through a combination of facility and academic program upgrading which could include the refurbishment of the student union, additional weekend classes and offcampus courses. While all of these remedies are worthy, the administration should focus on strengthening the school's academic programs, recognizing that physical improvements are just icing. While other area community colleges, such as Foothill and De Anza, may have higher enrollment, presumably because of the fresh, modem appeal of their campus environments, it is unrealistic to assume that this is the sole reason behind their success. Community colleges cannot be judged by their covers. City College already has a lot to be proud of. Notable accomplishments for the college include: the co-national champion Jaguars football team, Women's History Week, and the Bruce Jenner Classic. Re-entry, a support network for women rediscovering the world of education, the Marketing Club, which sends teams to a national championship competition

annually, and the remainder of the athletic department, which has traditionally fielded top baseball, track and golf teams, have become college standards which are sometimes overlooked. However, while sports seems to be City College's dominant appeal, the key to its future success lies in the innovative and exciting new programs that the college has initiated within the past year. The launching of the Honors Program and others like the 2+2 cooperative transfer program with Santa Clara University mark a college on the move, one which is constantly searching for new ways to serve its students whose best interest is its top priority. City College is merely in a stage of transition between innovation and success. Given time, better academic and student support programs will elevate the college above its negative, mixed-bag image, adding recognition and respect and resulting in a positive reputation, something which cannot be accomplished through a change in appearance. City College offers a cornucopia of knowledge and activity that would certainly be enhanced by improvements to the grounds and facilities - but academics should come first.

"HOW IIIADE 818,000 FOR COLLEGE BY WORKING WEEKENDS."
When my friends and I graduated from high school, we all took part-time jobs to pay for college. They ended up in car washes and hamburger J.OI.nts, puttt"ng t"n long hours .C l"ttl 10r 1 e pay. Not me. My job takes-just one Weekend a month and tWO WeekS a year. Yet, I'm earning $18,000 for college. Because I joined my local Army National Guard. . They're the people who help our state during emergencies like hurricanes and floods. They're also an important part of our country's military defense. So, since I'm helping them do such an important job, they're helping me make it through school.
As soon as I finished Advanced Training, the Guard gave me a cash bonus of $2,000. Then, under the New GI Bill, I'm getting another $5,000 for tuition and books. Not to mention my monthly Army Guard paychecks. They'll add up to more than $11,000 over the six years I'm in the Guard. And if I take out a college loan, the Guard will help me pay it back-up to $1,500 a year, plus interest. It all adds up to $18,000-or more -for college for just a little of my time. And that's a heck of a better deal than any car wash will give you. THE GUARD CAN HELP PUT YOU THROUGH COLLEGE, TOO.

Women win first title Bases Loaded By Doug Thurman Sports Editor
Untimely drug tests create "hoop-la" NCAA Basketball Championships, the year 1990. . . North Carolina and Indiana are tied at 65 with a second remaining on the clock. Senior JR. Reid steps to the line for the N.C. Tarheels. Reid raises to shoot f or the national title ... But wait. What's this? A small wiry man with a brown paper bag over his head runs onto center court, frantically blowing a whistle, haulting Reid's shot. A crazed fan ? The unknown comic, perhaps? No . The back of his jersey reads: NCAA DRUG TESTING MASCOT. Then a loud menacing voice is heard over the P.A. system: "Will every player on the court at the present time please report immediately to the 'iohn'," it orders, rather bluntly, I may add. The players become irate, the coaches are irate, the fans are irate. I'm irate. I'm irate now, right now, as in 1987. Is this how college sports will eventually end up in this country? Will the turmoil surrounding the NCAA (National Collegiate Athletic Association) and its drug testing policy continue? As ludicrous as it may seem, the imaginary game curtailed above may become reality. Take a brief look at what the NCAA has dished out as of late: The NCAA has tossed out yet another cruel and unusual punishment, this time aimed at NCAA basketball players. During the NCAA playoffs, players were required, just as the college bowl game players were, to take a mandatory drug test. Not a big deal . I think we all knew the tests were unavoidable. Why was it so cruel and unusual then? The NCAA's timing was absolutely inane. Bowl game players, such as University of Oklahoma star Brian Bosworth, were asked to "fill up the vials" before their big games, which is fine. They had nothing better to do, except maybe to sit around in their hotel rooms watching Vanna White on the "Wheel of Fortune", or perchance, lounge around the olympic sized pool. However, in the case of Steve Alford (Indiana), David Robinson (Navy), Armon Killiam (UNLV), Kenny Smith (U of North Carolina) and the rest of the NCAA basketball playoff players, the NCAA drug testing committee knocked their heads together and ca.me up with a less than brilliant decision. Eight players from each team , five starters and three players at random, would be tested after their victories in first round games. Directly following the game. Can you imagine having to "fill 'er up" immediately after a one hour, energy draining game? Reports have it that some of the players experienced something of problem doing just that. Players f!om at least two teams were reoortedly up until after 2 a.m., trymg desperately to produce enough urine to constitute an official drug test. A few players even experienced stomach problems after drinking excessive amounts of soft drinks in an effort to solve the problem. St. John's cancelled practice the next day because of these problems. The University of Florida retreated it's entire team from their hotel because of reports of marijuana smokers in a room next to Florida players. The NCAA created sort of a hoopla in college hoops. What, pray tell, was the logic behind testing after the games instead of before? That is my numero uno question. What would have happened if a team won its first round game but found out it had played with a player under the influence of cocaine? Would the team have had to forfeit the game? Imagine if this had happened to Indiana basketball coach Bobby Knight? I guarantee you that chairs would have been
thrown. In my unprofessional opinion, it's about time the NCAA starts making some ethical decisions in the drug testing
process.
If not, believe it or not, in the year 1990 we all might be viewing an NCAA championship game without the usage of time-outs, just drug test-outs.

Can they overcome defeat? . Can they beat the big teams? Can they play in the clutch? The answer to these questions are, yes, they can. The City College softball team is making a name for itself. For the first time in the history of the school, the Jaguar softball team has won the Golden Gate Conference by taking two of their last three regular season games against conference opponents Laney, Chabot and San Mateo. The lady Jags will take their 10-2 league record into the first game of the Shaughnessy Playoffs this Saturday at City College. The Jag's will play the winner of the game between San Francisco and West Valley. The Jaguars slapped it to Laney College by spanking them 17-1 in a five inning contest last Wednesday to end the regular season. Norma Urias (4-0) collected the win by striking out six and only giving up two hits. On the offensive end of the stick, Barbara Morrey led the team by going 3 for 4 at the plate. Irma Aranda and Pari Rossi both went 2for 3. The team was coming back from a heartbreaking loss last Tuesday against the Chabot Gladiators. The JaiDiarS suffered the 1-0 defeat, which knocked them back into a tie with the Gladiators for the top spot in the league, at home. The lady Jag's played an almost perfect game, making no errors to Chabot's two. The Gladiators scored the only run, which came after a single, a sacrifice bunt and a two out double that would have been a two run home run if it wasn't for Cindy Richmond. "Cindy saved it from being a home run when she jumped up over the fence and deflected it with her glove," explained Coach Sam Huerta. The Jaguars out-hit the Gladiators fi ve to four and had chances to win the game when they loaded the bases in both the ftfth and sixth innings, but failed to produce a run.

Football bo.wl.game at SJCC By Bradley Brooks Staff Writer
Photo by Luzmaria V. Martinez Staff Photographer City College's Pat Nelson (second to left), runs the 110 meter high hurdles during the Junior College Open, the fust of three Bruce Jenner Classics held here at City College. The picture was taken during the preliminary round of the high hurdles.
In the finals, Nelson fmished in 4th place with a time of 15.01. The high school and Open University meet was held on April 18 and the premiere meet, which will feature top track and field athletes from around the world, will begin May 30.
A decision to organize a San Jose Football bowl to be held at San Jose City College has been made. This will be a Northern California only football bowl to be held on this campus. The caliber of the Jaguar football program should put City College in this bowl game 80-90% of the time, according to City College President Byron R. Skinner. "In light of consistent winning by our football team, it would seem we could be highlighted even more by playing a bowl game locally," said Athletic Director Bert Bonnano. However, since this attempt must be financially successful, it cannot succeed without campus support. The manner in which funds are to be raised for this program are unclear at this time. Profits gained will be used to support City Colleges athletic programs and to fund a visiting professor in residence program. Profits attained will be used to support the athletic program and to fund a visiting professor in a residence program.
Track teams place high in GGC By Bradley Brooks Staff Writer No, it is not one of Coach Steve Haas' dreams, but yes, it is unbelievable, unimaginable, and unthinkable. Yet, no matter how far-fetched the facts may seem, they are accurate. Haas is the head coach of a track team which has won the Golden Gate Conference championship for the 15th straight year. Additionally, the team bas not lost a duel or triangular meet in that time. The Jaguars clinched the GGC championship last Saturday at West Valley College by outscoring second place West Valley by a score of 163 to 148. Before the meet West Valley looked like the team to beat. "I knew ahead of time it was going to be a close meet," said Haas. GGC champions from the Jaguar squad were Chris Taylor in the 400 meters with a time of 47.92 and Tom Saggua in the 800 meters with a time of 1:54.20. Saggua, Chris Taylor, Ricky Lucero, and Andre Taylor all combined for a first place victory in the 1,600 meter relay with atimeof3:1 8. In the field events, Harold Rucker swept three first places. The first came in the long jump (244 3/4), followed by the triple
jump (47-11 3/4), and the high jump(64). Craig Ollenberger won the shot put (47-7 1/2), as well as the hammer throw ( 117 -8) and Craig Peterson won the discus event with a throw of 1434. "It didn't come easy this year," said coach Haas~ut that made it a little more exciting." The Jags may be able to send as many as12 competitors to the Northern California trials, set for this Saturday at Chabot College, to compete for an opportunity to participate in the Northern California finals which will be held in Modesto next Friday. The top four fmalists in each lane race and six final ists from each distance and field event will advance from the Northern California finals to the state championships held at American River College May 15 and 16.

close 86 points. Matching first place wins with DVC at six each, the lady Jags still fell far short of the first place mark.
"It didn't come easy this year but that made it more a little exciting."
-- Steve Haas Donya Andrews Little more than dominated the West Valley meet for the Jaguars, sweeping three first place victories on her own and participating on both winning relay teams; the 440 and the mile. Little took the gold in the long jump with a 16' 7 1/4" jump, the 200 meters with a time of 25.96, and the 400 meters with a time of 58.3 1. "She (Little) won three events, ran on both winning relays and accounted for 35 of the team's 87
points by herself," said women's Head Coach Robert Jones. Tina Robinson, Bridget Johnson, and Joelle La Torre combined with Little in the 440 relay with a combined winning time of 51.11, and Barbara Keehner, Johnson, La Torre, and Little ran a time of 4:11.2 in the mile relay. Johnson also took a first in the triple jump with a jump of 35-8. La Torre took two third places, one in the 200 meters with a time of 26.63 and one, with a time of 59.79, in the 400 meters. Keehner took third in the 800 meters with a time of 2:20.84 and Karen Fields took third place in the discus with a throw of 98-7. "It was a real good meet, we did what we had to do to get the job done," said Jones. Indeed they did do what they bad to do. The meet carne down to a one point decision and the mile relay would decide the outcome for the second place spot. The weight of the meet was on the shoulders of four girls who came through under the pressure. 'They had to win the mile relay to place ahead of Chabot and they went out and won it," Jones said.
