Committees to look into fund raising By Brenda Yesko

A committee bas been formed to review fund raising activities and the accounting of the collected monies on the City College and Evergreen campuses. Trustees Richard Bowers and Charles Blackmore of the San Jose/Evergreen District Board make up this committee which Dean of Instruction, Dr. Leo Chavez said he hopes will be "a quick, thorough look (at the way fund raising and over all accounting take place on campus.)" The formation of this committee, according to Dr. Chavez was directly related to the arrest of City College assistant baseball coach, John A. Payne, 41. Payne, who was arrested April 5 was charged with writing a $600 check without sufficient funds to back it up. Because the check exceeded $500, he was also charged with grand theft, according to San Jose police. These charges are in connection with a fund raising raffle held by the baseball team last December to raise money for a field trip to Japan this June. Payne is scheduled to appear in court on these charges at 2 p.m. on May 21, according to the County Clerk. District Superintendent, Michael Hill, said the board had become "very concerned" and that there was need for a review. Hill did not however, say that he felt the reason for the investigation sprang from Payne's arrest as Dr. Chavez had stated. According to the district board minutes, trustee Bowers suggested the appointment of an outside auditor to work with the subcommittee but the Board-has not since employed the services of one. A second committee which will be looking into fund raising on the City College campus is the Senate Athletic Committee

Last week I read your April Newsletter and discovered that you have invited one Tom Hayden to be this year's gradpation speaker. I am appalled. I hereby request that you cancel this arrangement and fmd a speaker more acceptable to all or at least most members of our college community and the community at large. In case you have forgotten let me remind ~ou that during the Vietnam conflict more than 58,000 Americans fought gallantly and died honorably on the Vietnam battle fields because their President asked them to. At the same time the Haydens were cavorting with the enemy's leaders in Hanoi apparently providing aid; comfort and propaganda support for the communist conquest of South Vietnam. Once the communist forces captured South Vietnam, hundreds upon hundreds of thousands of freedom loving South Vietnamese fled their homeland seeking refuge the tree world. Many of these Vietnamese refugees came to the United States of America-- the home of the brave and the land of the free. I have been informed (but cannot verify at this time) that somewhere between one-fourth and one-third of our graduating class are Vietnamese refugees. In view of these fact!!, I fail to understand how you have the nerve to ask that man to be our graduation speaker. I am indeed appalled and offended. Whoever thought this one up and sold you on it has done a disservice to you, our college and our community. It is my opinion that this action is tantamount to forcing the national convention of

the NAACP to listen to a racial tirade by the Grand Wizard of the KKK, or forcing the Jewish survivors of the nazi death camps to listen to Kurt Waldheim's justification of his Nazi past. Inviting or not inviting Tom Hayden to be our graduation speaker has nothing whatsoever to do with freedom of speech. If he is invited to our campus for a presentation of his views that is fine by me. During the twenty-two years I have been a member of the faculty at San Jose City College all kinds of people with many different views and opinions have appeared on our campus. I have never protested before because I do believe that a college campus is and should be the market place of ideas. That much I can and do accept as part of this year's academic theme of "Freedom and Responsibility." On this occasion, however, I must protest. The graduation ceremony provides a captive audience. None of the Vietnamese students or their families participated in the selection of Tom Hayden. If they attend the graduation ceremony, they ~ to listen to this speaker. This violates the whole concept of "Free<iom and Responsibility . It is for the above stated reasons that I feel that inviting Tom Hayden to speak at our graduation breaks the bonds of decency and is probably the most grotesquely obscene act of incivility I beli eve I have wimessed in my twenty-nine years as a teacher. Our Vietnamese graduates deserve better. I just can't believe that anyone connected with education can be so insensitive to so many of our students' history and feelings and to the battle field sacrifices of so many Americans. I conclude by repeating my request that you cancel Tom Hayden and arrange for another. Please inform me of your decision as soon as possible. Jan Henry Groenen Political Science

Letter

Gains by ASC EDITOR: It is almost the end of the year and I would like to recap what the Associated Student Council achieved tllis year. Because we were new to our jobs in the fall, it took us a while to get going. We started out with our first pep rally in 20 years. Then there was our "Voter Awareness Day" with speakers on the different propositions and also some candidates. In October, we sponsored an International Students Day. You may have noticed some of the students that day because tl!ey came to school in their native

dress. We were very happy when an International Students Union Club was formed. The Director of Student Recommendations wrote up and distributed a survey requesting your student opinions of what should be done to fix up the Quad. The results of the surveys returned were recorded and sent the appropriate people. In December we held the Christmas Fair on the 9th and lOth. The vendors who sold their wares were very impressed with the students on our campus and asked if they mav return.

Jaguars.win, lose GGC By Do_!lg Thurman Sports Editor

Bases Loaded By Doug Thurman Sports Editor

On a sporting high

at City College·

•r

Intercollegiate tennis anyone? Sorry all you free swinging 'racket-eers', tennis isn't available at City College as an intercollegiate sport, like football or baseball are. There just simply is no Jaguar tennis team. But if there was, you can bet the ranch and all your farm hands that it would be ranked right up there with with the top teams in the country. Well maybe not the country, but I would go as far as state. All of you sport junkies out there are probably thinking I'm out of my gourd for making such a preposterous claim, and asking yourself why and how I carne up with my prediction. Simple. City College intercollegiate sports has reached an all-time high for 1987, about as high as possible, in fact If you transferred to City College from Eastwestern Bowling Green State and haven't heard about all the commotion, won't you please let me fill your head with a bowl full of championships. . Only two Jaguar teams failed to win their respected leagues this season: the women's volleyball team and the women's basketball squad. The volleyball team ended a tough season in fourth place with a 9-7 record, and ·in what women's basketball coach Sam Nakaso called "a very frustrating season" the Lady Jags completed the season winless in league play and recorded only two wins all season. But those were the exceptions, extreme exceptions to say the least Let me start out with the much heralded Jaguar football team, which as we all know (except for the Eastwestern Bowling Greeners) not only went 11-0 on the year, not only won the Merced Elks Bowl over defending champion Merced College, but was the ftrSt Golden Gate Conference team to win the league four straight years. Directly after defeating Merced, Head Coach Howard Gay exclaimed, "We've got a great football team. I think we're as good as any one in the state or the nation." State maybe, but nation, coach? But there was no arguing with Gay's statement later, as the team was named in a USA Today/National Community College Football Coaches Alliance poll as the 1986/87 national champs (Co-champs, actually, with Northeastern Oklahoma A&M). I:ll put that~ capital letters: NATIONAL CHAMPIONS, as m U.S,~ m every community college east of the Pacific Ocean. As for Jaguar basketball, although the purple and gold hoopsters didn't actually finish first in the GGC, they were, arguably, the best team in the league. The Jags took second place with an 84 record against Chabot's 9-3 .mark, but beat the Gladiator's in two out of the three matchups and also lasted two games longer than any of the five of GGC opponents in the Northern California Regional tournament The Jags were a straw-in-the- haystack away from the state tournament held in Los Angeles, losing to Skyline College in the Nor Cal regional finals by only one point, 68-67. And how about that Jaguar softball team. This year saw the first GGC title ever for the Lady Jags. They fmished as cochampions with Chabot but went on to lose to San Mateo in the Shaughnessy Playoffs, a a single elimination system to see who the GGC will send to the Nor Cal regionals. Golf anyone? City College has a ·golf team that was twotime defending Northern California champions, in 1985 and '86. This year, Head Coach Harley Dow pulled his team. from behind to win the Camino Norte league over Chabot, addmg to his long list of 14 Conference titles. In Dow's 23 years at City College the golf team has never finished lower than second place. That's what I call playing up to par. No need to mention the men's track team. Even people at E.W. Bowling Green have heard about Jaguar track. Once again, they are the champions, the kings, th~ lords, the conquering buns of the GGC. That makes 15 m a row. I wonder when the day will come when all the other teams move out of the GGC over to the rival Coast Conference so that they can have a chance in the winner's circle? And what about that Jaguar baseball squad. Who do they have swinging the bat for them, Mike Schmidt and Dale Murphy or King Kong and the Jolly Green Giant? .In one stretch this season the Jags unloaded for 14 homeruns m only three games and have hit over 50, overall. Someone call the scouts, quick! The Jags wrapped up their season in front of the pack despite losing to Diablo Valley on Tuesday! although an unfortunate mix-up deprived them of thetr league championship. (See baseball story on this page.) " Gee Wally, so why doesn't City College have a tennis team?" "Well Beav, I think it's because the school administrators don't have the time to attend another championship awards banquet" "Gosh Wally, you'd think that on account of so many championship teams that draw more people to the school, they could scrape up some time, don't you?" "Yea Beav, but I think that they have to have time to take care of school stuff." "Golly Wally, that's kinda hard to believe." Thanks Beav. At least I know I have one supporter.

dn the day of May 9, just minutes after the Jaguars had posted a 12-3 win over West Valley College on the Viking's home field, the City College Jaguars were pronounced .Golden Gate Conference baseball champions. Hold the applause, and don't put the gold crown on the Jags just yet. Just minutes before their fmal game versus Diablo Valley last Tuesday, the players started learning one by one thiit they were being forced to forfeit four league matches because of the participation of an ineligible player. Because of this unfortunate occurrence, the Jaguars not only gave up the title and ended up in a distant fourth place, but it also cost them a chance to go on to this weekend's regional tournament to be held at Butte College. At an almost complete loss for words, Head Coach Barry Woodhead showed his disappointment for his team by saying, "It's devastating, just devastating. These kids have been working (for the GGC title) since the middle of August and for this to happen is just devastating." A player is required to carry 12 units during the season. The ineligible player in question, who was not identified by the athletic department, was reported to have started with 12 units at the beginning of the semester but apparently dropped a class for a period of time. He retained the units, but only after four Jaguar wins had passed. The player's violation was caught by the athletic department during a routine check of the ·student-athlete's class load. Athletic Director Bert Bonanno, who had no choice in the matter, reported the violation to the league. "The shame is that this is maybe the best baseball team in the history of the school," Bonanno said. The "best team in the history of the school" may be a judgement call, but the team's stats alone may jus! be the ingredient to back the statement up. The Jags were 31-14 for the whole season. Without the four forfeits they were 18-5 in league play where they were 4-0 against three of the six teams in the GGC. The team's combined batting average was over .350 in which they had eight players over the .300 mark. Eleven different Jaguar's accounted for over 50 home runs on the season. Two GGC 'Player of the Year' awards were given to the Jags; the ftrst to sophomore ftrst baseman and University of Santa Barbara signee Craig Middlekauff, and another to freshman Scott Erickson for 'Pitcher of the Year.' Five players were elected to the 1st team all-league, two were chosen for 2nd team allleague and three players received DENTAL COVERAGE for Students· Faculty· Stat1 & their families SPEClAL ANNUAL RATES SUBSCRIBER ONLY ( YOU)

As many as eleven Jaguar players may be given scholarships to four year colleges, which would make Woodhead's scholarship total 19 in only three years at tbe helm of the club. "We're still the champions," said Woodhead, "and nobody will ever be able to take that away from us." Other coaches in the GGC may feel the same way. "All the coaches in the league have called me and said that they were sorry, and they all said that wasn't the way they wanted it to happen," said Woodhead. "They said things like, 'Wood, you (the Jaguars) beat us all in the field .and as far as we know you guys were the best."'

"It really bothers me seeing how disappointed and hurt my sophomores were. No one feels the disappointment more than the sophomores.

3rd straight title for golf team By Brad Brooks/S~reporter Surprise, surprise, surprise. . . the City College Golf team slipped in through the back door in a win or lose situation to take the Camino Norte Conference crown right off the head of the league leading Chabot Gladiators. "Everyone counted Chabot as being in a class of their own," said coach Harley Dow, "They were beating everybody bad early in the year." The Jaguars won their last two conference tournaments to overcome the Gladiators 84 to 74, winning their third. consecutive Camino Norte conference title. City College won four of their six conference tournaments, and took second in the other two tournaments for a combined sixty-

eight points. The Jags picked up another sixteen points through head to head matches with conference teams. Each of these matches accounted for two points each, and City College won all of these matches except for two against Chabot. The Jaguars, under coach Dow, have in fact won the title six of the last seven years and fourteen of the last twenty-three. Dwing this period, the Jaguars have never finished below second in league play, have won five Northern California titles and two state championships. Dow's winning percentage is better than 80 percent, and he is reported to have coached more wmning golf teams than any coach in the United States.
