Program offers student jobs

By Marie Mattison Staff Writer . City College business students will have ·the opportunity to take advantage of between 20-40 job opportunities at Valley Fair Shopping Center as part of a new program set up by the college and the mall. Within the next six months, Valley Fair will be hiring for both part-time and management positions for the Christmas season and throughout the new year. Establishments that have responded to the program so far include Graffiti, Emporium, Esprit, The Gap, and Banana Republic. - " - - - --: " ...o "leon lnnlr'inO' cmpiOyci :S C1J..,V "N•~··c for permanent people who are interested in learning the marketing field. "I'm really excited because this is the first time we have ever had such a program involving City College and an entire shopping center," said Dan McUsic, City College Q;I"\J

Class withdrawals declining By Mike White The number of students. withdrawing from classes with a "W" grade is .declining, thanks to a 'one-of-a-kind on-line computer system, according to San Jose/Evergreen Community College District Director of Admissions and Records Robert Brown, The withdrawals, or "W" grades are· issued between the fifth week of the semester and approximately five weeks before its conclusion. After this time, an evaluative grade of A, B, C, D, or F must be given. The amount of "W" grades issued at the end of the 1987 spring semester accounted for 18% of all final grades, compare~ w.ith
23% in 1980. Part of this decrease, Brown believes, was due to the introduction of a $10 drop-fee (to a maximum of $20 per semester) in 1983. By the spring of 1984, withdrawals had · already dropped by to 21%. Significant reasons for this decline began in 1985 when new students were · required to t:;.ke assessment tests to judge their writing, reading and math abilities. This replaced the haphazard method of simply moving the students into the next level of classes as determined by their previous records. Besides taking the assessment tests, new students are also required to attend an orientation of City College

and meet with a college counselor. However, these changes could not be reinforced if it were not for an on-line computer system. Through this system, Admissions and Records officials and counselors can quickly check a student's academic background to make sure he or she has met the minimum assessment scores or completed the prerequisite classes. City College and Evergreen are the only colleges in the world to use this type of on-line computer system. Part of the reason for this is the great amount of time and work needed-to implement this system, Brown said.

marketing instructor. Some positions begin at entry level at minimum wage, but the majority of the jobs available can eventually become assistant manager and management positions. . "Students may feel that it's not the most elaborate of jobs to be in retail, but the money and experience can be very satisfying for a student interested in the marketing field," McUsic said. "One of the important assets of this sort of thing for the students involved in the program is that they can learn and earn at the same time, " said Greg 0!1&'1!1~50!!;- A~~~i~tt? Dean of the Occupational Education at City College. "Generally speaking, merchants want experienced people, but what we're trying to do is strengthen that experience and tum it into the student's best ability," he said.

Look for condom machines in '88 By Jason Engel Staff Writer Next spring City College will join the forces for safe sex with other area community colleges when the campus installs condom vending machines. The college has been pushing for the machines since March, but is still awaiting approval by the San Jose/Evergreen City College board of trustees. "The contract is very close to approval," said District Assistant Superintendent

'Boom Boom Room' a depiction of hate By Frances King
.Editorial
Checkpoints needed It's inconvenient. An invasion of privacy. A hassle. . Being stopped at a sobriety checkpoint this holiday season may in fact be all of the above, but consider the alternatives ... It's inconvenient- Even if Bay Area CHP an~ sheriffs' departments were to go out of therr w~y to mak~ these checkpoints conv~ru~nt, they d have a pretty hard time cons1denng that 80% of the adult population ·consumes alcoholic beverages. That doesn't mean that all 80% are going to get behind the wheel after they've had a drink, but if put in their position, how and where could you safetly draw the line? An invas~on ~f privacy- it's unlikely that Brandon Sllvena, a Los Gatos high school student would have objected to an "invasion of.·his privacy" the night his car struck a tree o~ I-Ii~hway 9 after he had been drinking. Sllv~na, 17, was critically injured and
corrGilUes tc reccvetfrom massive head injuries he sustafued during the crash.
According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, people aged 16 to 21 make up 12 per cent of all licensed drivers, but cause 26 per cent of the fatal alcohol related accidents. . Finally, sobriety checkpoints are a ~ hassle- Consider the following statistic. Every 38 minutes, a young person dies on the road due to an alcohol-related accident. Every 38 minutes. That's almost 50 times every day of the year that you risk involvement or possible death when you chpose to drink and drive. A hassle? Maybe, but what would you rather do for 38 minutes, wait in line for a sobriety checkpoint or count down the m~ut~ until you become the next highway stausuc? Drinking and driving are also inconvenient for the taxpayer, a hassle for the highway patrol, and invades the private lives of thousands of citizens each year that are touched by the tragedy it brings.

Arena parking-no problem EDITOR:
In your editorial printed 11,125 you were seriously mistaken. You said that San Jose would not be able to handle the parking near a proposed downtown arena. In doing so you assumed everyone would drive separately to a downtown arena. Your math went like this, 20,000 seats--..:.2,000 parking spaces-7 ,200 additional parking spaces= 12,800 cars without parking spaces. Now be real. How many people do know that go to a concert or game by themselves? My math is this way, 20,000
The Times
seats divided by 3 people in a car equals 6,666 spaces used with 7,200 parking spaces that leaves 2,534 reserved spaces. Next you insult our police force by suggesting that they would not be able to handle the occasional fme police force. Then you insult all of us by suggesting that downtown parking is almost as bad as San Francisco. Where is your pride? To top _it all off you insult me and the many that. believe constructing the arena in a more remote location will be inconvenient Editor-in-Chief Brenda Y esko Opinion Editor Amber Sailors
~ 1987
and take ·business away from downtown patrons by suggesting that they do put in a remote location. Do you remember when and why downtown was silent and dangerous during the off hours? It was because things were building in remote locations. People are starting to comeback now. A game or a concert would make for a whole evening downtown. I also find it hard to believe you put your time and effort into this San Jose City College. Paul Smith

Well! I fmally entered the compounds of the "Boom Boom Room" on Nov. 29, 1987. I felt like I had walked in on judgment day, all the racial shooting down that was going on. I was told by several visit~rs not to see the play, that 1t was not for human consumption. In my opinion the "Boom Boom Room" was a depiction of hate from beginning to end . There were scenes from incest to hate, and there was no . up-lift from a sad experience. It's not every day the devil gets such a promotion. Daryl Lindstrom waited five years to direct the "Boom Boom Room." Maybe she should have rented an off campus room for her five-year ambition. I believe everyone's work or concept of art should be
read or seen, but I also think a selection process should be used with discretion when so many young minds are involved. America is in turmoil, apathy is on the rise, and the "Boom Boom Room" was let out oil the campus, showing a nation dying of hate, incest and lovemaking. We don't need ariything to put our campus or our visitors in bed with the other side of midnight. We need to crawl out of darkness into the light and present dignity. This play left nothing but formaldehyde in the senses, and we didn't need the injection of racial hate and immoral indigestion. Our academic climate should not be drugged-- we need a cure. Love and Dignity is the answer. If these were present, what a garden we could grow.

Credit to Parish EDITOR: The Times review of "To Gillian on Her 37th Birthday" listed the lighting designer and the li~tin_g technicians in alphabetical order. That appeared to give me, Matt Bolinger, equal or more credit than the designer, Chris Parish. It was explained to me by the reporter that it was done that wa!; because the reporter was not informed of t11e status assigned to the designer, who deserved top billing. The production of "In The Boom Boom Room" was recently concluded. This time, The Times
failed to even mention Chris Parish and gave all the credit for the lighting to me; I merely operated the followspot. Chris .Pansh is an accomplished lighting designer. The review of ·" In The Boom Boom Room," by an American College Theatre reviewer, was highly complimentary of Chris' design. The Times needs to acknowledge Chris for his talent in the lighting design and get me "off the hook" with my friends in the Drama Department. Very Sincerely, Matt Bolinger
This holiday season, play it safe, Don't Dri nk and Drive!

News San Jose's cleaning up its act in .owntown area
Goudy retires after 30 years By Sandra Sheffield At the the end of this semester, after 30 years, City College photography instructor Robert Goudy will stop teaching, but will continue to keep his focus dn the birdie. · · "There's a shortage of ·(teaching) jobs and I think I should give somebody else a chance to go forward," Goudy said. His list of "yets" to be completed after his retirement are as numerous and as varied as his 30 years of accomplishments have been at the college. In 1957, with a Bachelor of Arts degree in Art from San Jose State University and a Masters degree in Art/Architecture from Stanford University, Goudy took a job teaching design at City College. Two years later he became chairman of the Art Department. In 1963, he designed the City College class schedule bulletin, and the college won first prize in a statewide competition for the best design. Goudy is also responsible for hiring many of the college's arts instructors. "He is in a big way responsible for me being here," said City College photography instructor Steve Salisian. Goudy remained chairman of the Art Department for ten years and then decided to explore photography more in depth and get more involved with his students.

three years, I did nothing but read photography until I knew technically what it was about," Goudy said. Goudy also ser-ved in the Unites States Air Force with actor James Stewart, with whom he received the Distinguished Flying Cross during World War II. Goudy's plans for the future include vacationing with his son, who is in the United States Army, in Germany and possibly starting a calendar company business. "I've always liked calendars and I think they should be made round instead of square. I don't think you should have to turn the page to see the calendar." Goudy, who has lived in the Santa Clara Valley since early childhood, will scout around resort areas in Washington State for reloca-tion. "I have no feelings far anything else but student contact...they are so pure and need help so badly. I really will miss it (the students)," he said.

A camp for clowns? Clown Camp on the Road is an extension of the Clown College offered in the summer at La Crosse, Wis. This Clown Camp is a fun-filled learning experience that provides its participants with more than 12 hours of intensive training as clowns. "This camp is about commitment .. . . " said Leon "Buttons" McBryde. "... It's like ham and eggs; the chicken was involved, but the pig was committed. " The camp, held recently in Los Altos, was the first ever offered in the Bay Area. It was the camp's largest road session, with more than 129 students.

Jags lose barn-burner Bowl game Dy Doug Thurman Sports EdiLor
Before the game City College head football coach Howard Gay predicted that the San Jose Bowl matchup between the Jaguars and De Anza College was going to be a "bam-burner." During the fourth quarter, when the emotions were high and muscles were tight, a Mercury News reporter said the game went from a "barnburner to a cliff-hanger," and that is all that is needed to describe the first inaugural San Jose Bowl. De Anza (9-2), used an effective fourth quarter running attack to break a 21-21 deadlock with 56 seconds left in the game to mark a 28-21 victory. With it, De Anza has the self-proclaimed right to call itself the No. 1 team in Santa Clara County. "I'm not sure that they didn't want it a little more than we did in the fourth quarter," said Gay. "They deserve it." The game, with a crowd of approximately 2,900 on hand, proved all it was made out to be: a down-to-the-wire grudge match between two teams with identical 8-2 records.
But it also served another purpose, according to Gay. "I think it's great how we buried the hatchet and renewed the rivalry. . . " he said. "Maybe it's not to early to start thinking about a rematch for next year."The Jaguars, Golden Gate Conference co-champions, led on three different occasions, but each time the Jags scored, the Dons, Coast Conference co-champions, marched back and evened things up on the scoreboard. The Jags opened up the scoring with an "excuse me" play late in the first quarter. After a lateral from quarterback Dan Yetter, wide receiver Rob Brady threw a 41-yard "dying quail" pass to Ricky Washington, who nabbed the ball in the endzone after a Don defender had tipped it. The Jaguars seemed a wee bit puzzled on De Anza's first scoring play, an option keeper by Don quarterback Fred Morales, who seemingly danced 38 yards untouched to the end zone to tie the score. The half ended 7-7, and the game looked more like an offensive yawner, instead of a "bam-burner." After sophomore linebacker Jeff Dixon recovered a De Anza fumble in the middle of
the third quarter, the Jags began a strange scoring drive with a bag full of lucky breaks in their hands. On a thirdand-four play on the Jaguars own 49-yard line, Yetter, looking at a sure loss of yardage with a face full of hungry Don defenders on hand, fumbled. But the Don defenders misplayed the bouncing ball and 300-pound offensive lineman Dan Mcintyre smothered it for a
"Maybe it's not too early to start thinking about a rematch for next year."
--Coach Howard Gay Jaguar first -down. The Jags were forced to punt after moving the ball to the Dons' 34-yard line, but the Dons decided to play rough-house with Jaguar punter Michael O'Brien, which resulted in a 15-yard penalty and a first down for the Jags. Oscar Pittman, who had 104 yards on 20 carries and was electedA.he Jaguars' offensive MVP for the game, capped the drive with a 19yard spurt up the middle, dragging a Don defender along in the process. But once again the Dons
Jags on short end of selections The Golden Gate Conference All-League selections were made last Thursday, but the GGC co-champion Jaguars weren't represented heavily in the outcome. The Jaguars posted only three first-team players, all on the defensive side, with defensive lineman Sam Hernandez, linebacker Fred Taulani and defensive back Clayton Bamberg. But on the offensive side the Jaguars were the only team other than West Valley College not to be represented with an all-conference selection, a first in many years, according to Head Coach Howard Gay.
"I'm not real happy with what happened (the selections) offensively. We averaged 30 points a game... we were second in the conference offensively and sixth in the state. I feel we were more deserving than that," said Gay. Gay said that he was also disappointed with not receiving a "special award," given to the most outstanding players in the conference. Asked how his team was excluded, other than the defensive picks, from the selections, Gay said, "Well, we were 8-2, we've won the conference the last five years-maybe there's a little sour grapes towards us from the other coaches."
struck back. With a 62-yard drive ending with a five-yard run by Kyle Toomer, the Northem California rushing leader, the Dons tied the score 1414 with under 30 seconds left in the third quarter. On the second play of the final period, the Jags took the lead again when Daryl Fortenberry, relieving Yetter at quarterback, rolled out on a play-action pass and hit a wide-open Brady down the sidelines for a 66-yard TD. The rest of the scoring was left to De Anza. With a 30yard kickoff return and two big pass plays, the Dons were on the 10-yard, line where Morales scored on a quarterback sneak. The Jags' last-chance series resulted in zilch, and the Jags were forced to punt with two minutes remaining. Toomer then took the matter in his own hands, doing everything but scoring the winning TD,

which was left to Joe iadakis with a two-yard with 56 seconds left in game. "I thought it was a great day and a great weekend as far as the first bowl game. It's a shame either team had to lose," Gay said. Reflecting on the season, looking over all aspects, Gay said that with each football season, the Jaguars have proven to be a consistent force on the gridiron. "It seems that in our down years we're co-champions, and in our good years we're champions. I think what it says speaks for the quality of our football _program." And with a quali ty as productive as the five-time defending GGC champions, they can expect to be in second San Jose Bowl year.

Women's Basketball
By Jason Engel and Brenda Yesko
The scouting reports call them a little thin in talent, but in comparison with previous years, superior in overall ability-shooting, basic skills, motivation and desire. The C ity College women's basketball team may have a long way to go, but according to its coach good things come in small packages. "If they stay healthy and don't foul out, they should do well this season," said Head Coach Sam Nakaso, who has had to struggle
with a five-player roster · after the loss of two key players, Charlene Begay and Alba Diaz Diaz, who left the team for personal reasons. The team is 2-5 in preseason play heading into the East Bay Classic at Contra Costa College, which began Wednesday. The Jaguars will now rely on ·the talents of freshman Tangie Lewis and sophomore Maria Orozco, along with rest of the players to produce a winning team for the 198788 season. Lewis and Orozco are
leading the team in statistics with 146 combined total points, and 167 total rebounds. Nakaso said it is difficult to practice because the team can't scrimmage due to a scarcity of team members. "This year we have a lot of team enthusiasm," said Nakaso, who hopes to recruit more players as the · season continues. The team plays at home against Hartnell at 5:30 p.m., Dec. 16.
Aldrich proves bigg~r isn't better By Bill Romero In one part of Jonathon Swift's novel "Gulliver's Travels," he writes about the adventures of a man, Gulliver, trapped in a world of giants. But Gulliver never tried to play college football against adversaries like Darron Aldrich, City College's 5'1," 150 -pound, fleet-footed tailback. Then again, Aldrich doesn't consider his lack of height a disability.
Darron Aldrich "My size makes me faster, quicker, and I can hide from the defense," said the native of Tampa Bay, Florida. Judging from the success that both he and City College's football t~am (19-1, one National Championsbip) have enjoyed over the past two years, it's hard to disagree. Aldrich also does very well for himself off the
football field. "My height is a disadvantage to them (detractors), not to me ... " he said. He likes to shop, especially at Chess King and D.J.'s, and with the exception of having his pants hemmed about five inches, everything fits as made. Something else that fits perfectly is Aldrich's friend~hip with 6'6" wide receiver Ricky Washington. "When people see us together, it makes a different impression, and we like to trip off them," said Washington. They met when "RicksL r" gave Aldrich a ride home from practice, and they've been friends ever since. On the field, Aldrich · leaves behind his normal lifestyle and becomes an oddity, as a force other tehlD.S have to watch. "He brings a certain 'boxoffice' to our games. There are other people in our conference that are a fast or faster (a 4.3 40-yard dash), but he looks the fastest," said Head Coach Howard Gay. "He's fun to watch," added Jaguar Co-captain Dan Mcintyre. Oh, by the way, Aldrich's teammates think so highly of him as a player and person that they voted him one of four team captains this year, along with the 6'4" ,290-pound Mcintyre.
Men's basketball ' The City College basketball team is off to a 7-0 start as they head in to the San Jose City College Classic basketball tournament, which runs until Saturday. The Classic, held in the City College gym, begins at 3 p.m. today, with Diablo Valley College versus Skyline College. The Jaguars play at 9 p.m. c_1gainst Contra Costa College. Also in the tournament is Chabot College, defending Golden Gate Conference champions, who play Foothill at 5 p.m. The 7 p.m. match features Canada College and Orange Coast College.
After City College, Aldrich plans to attend the University of Oklahoma (as a kick returner), Georgia Southern University (running back), or Aorida A&M (if his football career ends at SJCC). He anticipates having to prove himself again because of his height, but with Aldrich, it almost turns out to be a hustle.

A creative collage of thoughts: Is that you, Norman?
The floors creak and windows shudder Inside the halls of my structure. For I am a lonely haunted house. I tend to frighten even a mouse. Cobwebs invade the corners within A spider's paradise to exist in. Halloween night is no fun for me Trick or treaters scare so easily. The howls of the wind on a stormy night Flicker my candles like a bird in flight. The twittering bats are a comfort to me They are the ones who keep me company. Shirley Sanders
Time passages
After 'Heminway' Across the department store Jacky could spot the pantyhose racks. She rushed over and quickly set about examining the various kinds. She liked them all but could not decide. Pantyhose. All of them, long and stretchy. Pantyhose. The ability to suffocate, strangulate. But which to get. Calvin Klein, Christian Dior, Albert Nippon. These men must recommend these types -so much because their names were on the packages. She thought she could feel like a new woman in Evan Picone's pantyhose. She wondered if he found them comfortable to wear also. She came across a pair tht looked like the color of liver. She did not like liver. The tiny meat fibers got caught in her teeth. She quickly disregarded the item. For she did not trust men who wear pantyhose. And because she did not like liver. Laura Carta

Dank rain descending water droplets icy cold forming round puddles.
Lies a tomb that can't be seen. Death brings silence to the brave In this lonely, solemn grave. Vengeful rest the rattled bones
Peaceful slumber through the night, bodies lie dormant. The darkness prevails.
Of what was life, but now unknown.
Wrinkles on water far below the Golden Gate as tugboats bobble.

Guidance 199 symposium was designed for students whose disability interfers with their school work. Course instructor Flo Curnutt teaches students to , use the computer in their personal lives as well as academic. "Our class teaches them how to u:;e the computer as an extensi m of themselves
so they can ultimately use it to participate in other mainstream classes," said Assistant · Dean of the Disabled Students Program, Nancy Gressley. According to Gressley, the program works in two ways; first, by specially modifying equipment and second, by providing special software. Some computers have large screens or talking capabilities for the visually impaired or learning disabled students who learn better through sound. Also , the joysticks available assist the student in operating the computer
instead of using his or her hands. "We have several pieces of software that work with students intellectual and cognitiv e ab ilities," Gressley said. Anothe r speci alized program is called, "Key· boarding for the Physically Disabled," which helps students who do not have all their fingers, adapt to typing on a regular keyboard. The disabled students computer lab is located in B6 of the Business building. Class hours are from 2-4 p.m. on Mondays.
