Instructors, staff and students who are burning up over the issue of smoking in campus offices and buildings are being asked to submit suggestions for a solution to the office of Dr. Byron Skinner, City College president In a recent memo to the "Campus Community," Dr. Skinner made the following appeal: "Smokers are asked not to smoke in offices and buildings in respect for the health and safety of others." The appeal came after Dr. Skinner met with departments this semester on various subjects but kept hearing the same complaintsmoking poses a health hazard. Apparently in some buildings the ventilation system does not prevent the fumes from cigarette smoke from entering non-smokers' offices.
people not to smoke in offices and buildings. They are asked to go outside to smoke," Dr. Skinner said. "If they disagree with my recommendation, I encourage them to please send me a suggestion to solve this problem," Dr. Skinner added How are some of the instructors at City College reacting to Dr. Skinner's request? "It's an invasion of privacy," said English Instructor Anne Heffley, a smoker. "I am allergic to cigarette smoke. The smoke isn't contained in the smoker's office because of the inadequate ventilation system," said Sociology Instructor Dr. Jeane Gobalet, a non-smoker. "I have moved my office three times to resolve this problem," said History Instructor Dale Debold. "I moved to theW-Building into a private office so I can mainSee Smoking, Page 8.

A time ·for amends By Kathy Flynn
The holiday season is upon us. Money is tight and tensions are high. People are making plans to visit family and friends. Holidays are becoming more and more stressful. It's not just the lack of money or picking out that special present. Families are drifting apart. Old resentments, recent marital break ups, death of a spouse or parent, sibling rivalry, pr just plain old discontentment are putting distance between family and friends. It seems as though putting aside differences and replacing them with good will isn't the goal people are striving toward. It seems sad because time is so short. Your father, mother, brother, sister, or significant other is worth the effort. I have seen friends of mine under tremendous stress because they want closeness with their families and don't know how to achieve getting it.

Missing in action By Joe Medina
On the evening of December 7, Joseph H. G. B. Witherchuck, 36, went to the nearest toy store from his fotir-bedroom, two-bathroom, no-cable-TV suburban home to buy Christmas presents for his three children. He went there on his way home from work and entered the toy store at 6: 13 p.m. to find approximately 4,193 other people who had the same idea. Precisely at that moment, approximately 275 other shoppers were f?pping their feet in front of the sandbagged cash registers. This was the last time local authorities received a reliable sighting of Joseph Witherchuck. After Witherchuck entered the throng of sweaty, hungry and possibly carnivorous Christmas shoppers, he was not found until sixteen days later. The body of Joseph Heathcliff Garfield Billthecat Witherchuck was found, after being accidentally stampeded upon until dead by other shoppers, in the shopping cart of Mrs. Leona Kumquat, 33, who mistook the flattened corpse for a deflated punching bag.

Continuing students who have not registered for the spring semester by tfieir appointment times may fmd themselves standing in registration lines. Spring registration is usually higher than fall, and there is less time to give students, new and old. Continuing students often need to meet with counselors to determine which courses are transferable, the number of units needed for errtrance to various institutions, or to obtain associate arts degree information. New students must sign up for testing, meet with counselors and submit transcripts from other colleges, which may need to be analyzed to determine course applicability. ' Peggy Harrington, information curriculum specialist, stated that very few students are self-programmed, requiring staff assistance in the selection of classes, as well as other areas of the registration process. When continuing students do not register early, classes are not
filled , and therefore are cancelled, or are filled by new students, leaving the late-registering continuing students unable to schedule needed classes. Another drawback of late registration is that new students began registering on Dec. 12, gaining priority for counseling and registration. Continuing students no longer have the option of seeing a walk-in counselor in the Admissions office- all counselors are now in the Counseling Building giving academic advice to those students from orientation groups and those students with appointments set up. Continuing students will be seen on a stand-by basis only. Harrington commented to a continuing student who complained to her about lines that, "If you had kept your appointment or registered sooner, you wouldn't be creating a longer line, therefore, I have little sympathy for you." One bright spot on the horizon is a plan for a "trouble-shooting" team of students and staff helping students with questions, directions, forms, etc., during ·fall registration.

Nervously th e small young girl glances up from a wooden bench but the ugly thing still has not come yet. Her small body supports faded blue jeans, a pastel shirt and slightly old tennis shoes. Her short brown hair is clipped back hastily out of her eyes. She keeps her head down like a miner looking for gold and only looks up to the left for the old metal machine. Her empty hands move awkwardly in her lap as if they could not be comfortable in any position. A small slim purse lays against her leg as she watches a fly land and then leave the small wooden bench she sits on uncomfortably. An older boy, probably in high school, walks behind her,but she does not seem to notice. He stops a few feet away and leans on a metal pole protruding from the warm dirty cement. She glances at her gold colored watch, then looks left again. Opening her purse , she pulls out a small wallet. She takes something from it and puts it in her pocket. She hastily deposits the wallet back in her purse as her attention is directed to the contents of her purse for a few minutes. She checks her watch again. She quickly glances at her familiar surroundings, which are dreary and unfriendly, then places her purse at her side with one hand. She touches her hair as if to check it for flaws and strokes it back selfconsciously. Her small feet begin to swing forward and backward rhythmically from the bench. Finally, she sees the dirty thing coming and prepares her self. She grabs her purse and pulls out what she had previously set aside in her pocket into her right hand. She stands up as this enormous smelly thing finally approaches. It stops close to her giving her a disgusting breeze as part of it opens up. She steps eagerly up into the large multi-colored machine and puts the contents of her right hand into a small devise. A large ugly woman annoyingly gives her a ripped piece of paper. She goes deeper into the vinal cavity and disappears. The high school boy follows her actions. Suddenly, the thing closes and carries them far away leaving a black cloud of gasses behind. The warm cement and the wooden bench is the only things left at the old bus stop. -Sherry Kouns

Artist paints grim picture of Central America By Chris Bucholtz Gregg Young will never forget a night in 1985. He was jarred from his sleep by the sound of two large transport planes passing close overhead, but he thought it was just a dream. Then he heard two more. Then three more. He rushed out of his windowless, one room home, as did the rest of the people of the small Honduran town of Erandique, to see the sky filled with dozens of Army C-130 transports, roaring overhead at less than 500 feet. "It turned out to be the 101 st Airborne practicing for an invasion of Nicaragua,'' Young said. "You can imagine how jarring it was, since we hardly ever saw a plane in the town." This is one of the experiences Young has tried to capture in "A Holy Night at the Cross of Erandique," on exhibit in the San Jose City College Art Gallery until January 31. Young says the paintings represent "the darker side of my experience in Honduras," the country he worked in for 27 months as a Peace Corps volunteer. Tall and curly-haired, the 27year-old Young speaks softly when he recalls the events in the town, which sits near the Honduras-Nicaragua border. "It was a very overwhelming
experience," said Young. "For a long time I couldn't even talk about it to anyone. It was hard to even think about. "In a lot of ways, these paintings are a way of just getting this off my chest" Young's paintings, done with only his fingers on large, unstretched canvasses, are at the same time colorful and oppressive. On three walls, jagged, broken glass juts menacingly from plaster and wood planks above the paintings, symbolizing the technique used to protect property in Central America. "Since 90 percent of the population is unemployed, many have to survive off crime," Young said. "High walls and broken glass are very common." The 15 paintings in the display reflect events in the village during Lent before Easter in 1985. Also included in the exhibit are three paintings on disks that appear distorted until viewed in the reflective cylinder at their centers, which shows them to be perfectly proportioned. ''These took about 1000 hours, total," Young said. "They were the last things I did before leaving for Honduras. I included them to show how I've changed as an artist" Young's favorite painting is of a man on horseback grabbing at a duck's head in a Easter ceremony. "The Indians tie a duck up by
its legs on two high posts, and then ride by on their horses and try to pull the heads off. It's a display of macho." Another painting symbolized the death of a young girl. "A Honduran secret policeman and a Honduran National Guardsman got into a fight in the cantina, and everyone could see what was going to happen," Young explained. "The girl was the daughter of the barmaid, and when the two guys went for their guns, she yelled for her daughter to take cover. When the little girl heard that, she naturally ran to her mother, and ran right between the two guys with the guns." Young said that he was fired upon several times himself. "Once, when several of the townspeople were drunk, a young kid took a .45 and put it up to my temple. He thought it was unloaded, but when he pulled the trigger ... the bullet just grazed my head, and all this plaster fell down from the ceiling." Young, who now lives in San Francisco, graduated from Ball State University in Illinois with a degree in fine arts. He had lived on a farm, so he volunteered for the Peace Corps to work in animal husbandry. When he arrived in Erandique, which, because of poor roads and dense jungle, is a three days' journey from Tegucigalpa, he found a

''The animals there don't hold up very well, and most of them die and contaminate the water," Young said. "Since the children of the area suffer from polio and other diseases, I decided they were more important." Young supervised vaccinations, and helped the Hondurans build latrines and wells. "People don't realize it, but a lot

Leading the Gladiators was Most Valuable Player Darrell Jones, who rushed for 149 yards and two touchdowns on 12 carries. Jones also had a 92-yard kickoff return in the first quarter. Offense was not the only weapon Chabot entered this contest with. The Gladiators' defense held De Anza star running back Joe Fragladalcis to only 35 yards in seven carries. De Anza quarterback Fred Morales also had problems, throwing three interceptions, equaling his season-worst performance, and completing only 9 of 19 passes for 119 yards. Chabot's first post-season appearance since 1981 proved a memorable one while the Dons will spend the off-season trying to forget a nightmare.

Golden West crowned as volleyball champs By Joe Posadas
Eight teams from across the state came to San Jose City College on the opening day of the State Volleyball Tournament By tournament's end only one walked away with the coveted title. Winning the double-elimination competition was Golden West College, which defeated De Anza for the state title. · For De Anza it was a disheartening setback, having won the first
set before losing 8-15, 15-6, 1513,15-13. De Anza's second place finish is the third time in Coach Debi Schafer's career that her team has lost in the state final. Her Dons were also runners-up in '81 and again in '86. Finishing third in the tournament was the team from Santa Rosa. The fourth place finisher was Cerritos College. Voted tournament most valuable player·was Sabrina Dennis of Golden West College.

Biology Instructor Harry Hass, a forpter smoker, agreed. "I feel first we need some place for smokers, but the ventilation system is a problem for non-smokers," he-said. "Instructors' offices, to some extent, are private. They spend a lot of time in their offices, and if they are alone... they should be allowed to smoke," said History Instructor Charles Murry, another non-smoker. The issue is also surfacing on the Evergreen Valley College campus. While City College nurse Ayako Saito said no one has come in complaining of illness caused by cigarette smoking, Doris De Cecco, nurse at Evergreen, said, "students haven't complained, but staff members with colds or allergies have cmre in complaini,, 5 about other staff members' cigarette smoke." Last semester the Evergreen Academic Senate Council resolved to disallow smoking irl enclosed areas which are open to the public. The Associated Student Council, the Administrative Council and the Classified Council at Evergreen were asked to vote on the issue. Each group voted to support such a ban. The ban did not include faculty offices. No smoking signs were posted in public areas, including the cafeteria. But the issue was raised again this semester.
The presidents of four councils at Evergree!' , responding to constituent complain~. voiced opposition to the no-smoking rule. They requested a designaied area lor smokers. "No smoking signs were tempo· rarily taken down," while the request was reviewed, said Bill Jacobs, Evergreen Valley College Academic Senate Council president. "After investigation, we · found that no area for smoking was available, so next semester the no smoking in public-enclosed places rule will be reapplied," Jacobs added. According to Jacobs, faculty offices at Evergreen are not included in the no smoking rule because these offices do not have a ventilation problem.
