The Nation DEMOCRATS DOING BETTER IN POLLS: Surveys show President Bush's acceptance of cuts in Medicare and hikes in gas and alcohol taxes played a role in reviving the Democratic role as the protectors of the middle class. Pollster Peter Hart says his client, Ohio Democratic gubernatorial candidate Anthony Celebreeze, closed a doubledigit gap with GOP nominee George Voinovich by using the theme: "Protect working families."
AIRLINE FARE IDKE ON DEC.l: Airline travelers will start paying higher ticket taxes on Dec. 1 and could face additional airport fees next year, as part of an aviation package passed by Congress over the weekend. The legislation includes the USA's first national noise policy and will ban most noisier jets by the next century. Transportation Secretary Samuel Skinner says the bill is "pro-environment"
MEETING BUSH'S GOALS 'UNLIKELY': A USA TODAY survey of 118 state teachers and principals of the year found 44 percent feel it's "very unlikely" the USA will meet President Bush's education goals by the year 2000. The six goals include freeing schools of drugs, increasing graduation rates to 90 percent and ensuring that every adult will be literate. Another 31 percent believe it is "somewhat unlikely."
The World BAKER OFF TO MIDDLE EAST: Secretary of State James Baker leaves for Saudi Arabia late this week to explore "next steps" in the campaign to isolate Iraq's Saddam Hussein. Baker may add stops in other Arab countries, all in an effort to win strict adherence to the U.N. sanctions against Iraq. On his agenda: financial aid to countries hurt by the embargo, and military deployments if they become necessary.

Segal, left, and Eric Bristol, who is a specialist 4th class in the Army Reserve 375th Engineer Company at Fort Ord and an aviation major here at City College, check out some of the more than 175 tapes that have been donated to Tapes for Troops . The tape drive will continue
through Nov. 7, at which time the tapes will be sent to troops stationed in Saudi Arabia to help com bat the boredom they're experiencing in the desert. If you'd like to donate your unwanted tapes, collection boxes are set up in the cafeteria and the library, or tapes can be dropped off in room 303. Photo by Mark Muse
CURRENCY FIGHT ON: Eleven European Community leaders ignored British Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher's objections and set course for a single EC currency by the year 2000. "We have made it quite clear we will not have a single currency imposed upon us," Thatcher said. She noted Britain must agree for any treaty on monetary union, but the 11 said her objections were too late.
EAST GERMAN CAR BANNED: The smoke-belching Trabant car, stinking symbol of the industrial backwardness of East Germany, will no longer be permitted to pollute united Germany. Environment Minister Klaus Toepfer said the twocycle engines must pass emissions tests or go to the shop. ©Copyright 1990, USA TODAY/Apple College Infomation Network
Candidates' Q & A By AnneEiena Foster A candidates' forum held on Tuesday featured two of the four candidates running for seats on the San Jose/Evergreen Community College District. Tony Estremera and Charles Blackmore appeared to field questions from students, staffand faculty. larry Weddell and Kevin Thurber Were unable to attend the forum. Members of the audience subrnitted written questions which the Speech Departmen t's Merrylee Shelton put to the candidates, who then had two minutes to respond. Questions regarding budget, services, enrollment, class size, transfer, minority concerns, shared governance, and administration policy
were asked. The candidates concurred on many points. Both candidates expressed an interest in improving the ethnic diversity in administration and faculty. Blackmore said that he was shocked recently when he was told that there are only eight full-time minority instructors at City College, and that the faculty needs to be more ethnically representative of the students it serves. Estremera, who is Hispanic and the only minority candidate, was asked if his life experience as a member of an ethnic minority would enrich his contributions as a board member as opposed to other candidates, or was it even relevant "I assume we're talking about

Trustee vote critical By Julia Smith Voters and students at San Jose City College face a critical choice between four candidates vying for two elected seats on the San Jose/ Evergreen Community College District's governing board. Within the year, whoever wins a seat on the board will be responsible for selecting both a permanent president for San Jose City College and a new district chancellor toreplace retiring chancellor Dr. Richard Goff. Of equal importance to the board is the implementation of AB 1725, the Community College Reform Act, which must be completed within the year. Authored by Assemblyman John Vasconcellos, AB 1725 is, effeclively, a doctrine of shared governments between three entities: the state,thelocalboardandthefaculty. SinceProp.l3,thestatehasassumed a greater responsibility in the funding of educational programs. In effect, AB 1725 creates mutualrespectbetweenaschoolboard and its educators, granting those
educators more say in regional educational programs. These decisions will impact ev~
ery student at City College, regardless of their individual educational goals, and a generation of SJCC/ Evergreen students to come. Goff, whose retirement comes after 17 years as vice-chancellor and 10 years as chancellor of the district, addressed the concerns of the upcoming board election in a recent interview. "Voters will be determining who
will be on the governing board for a very important period of time," he said. "This board will implement legislation [AB 1725] that will determine the degree of student participation in government, and this board will be charged with selecting a new president for City College and a new chancellor for the districl" Goff continued, "Also, the new

board will be voting as to whether or not there will be trustee areas, trustees selected from different districts, which would lead to more ethnic diversity." The existing board recently approved the division of the district into seven geographic areas. It will be up to the board to decide whether each area gets its own board representative, expanding the number of board members from five to seven. Two of the five seats on the board are available during this election due to the board's electoral structure. Mternate seats are available for four-year terms every two years(in 1992,threeseatswill be on the ballot). Of the four candidates Charles Blackmore, 57- with 13 years on the board- is the only incumbent. The other incumbant, Mary Ruth Gross, is not a candidate. Blackmore described his perspective on some of the challenges facing the board in the next 12 months during a telephone interview. "Ideally," he explained, "the

Editorial
Language imperative reading and writing, is the L anguage, core element in determining success or failure in our society. Those who can communicate effectively will succeed; those who can't probably won't. The task of teaching individuals how to communicate effectively largely rests upon the shoulders of our educational system. ·Yet, our educational system seems to be failing at this most fundamental of disciplines. Afraid of loading students, or teachers, down with too much learning, instructors consistently lower standards and basic requirements. Tests that are computerized, multiple-choice, or true/false fulfill the natural desire to avoid work. Students are relieved of the intellectual effort involved in organizing thought and expressing it coherently. Classes such as math, science, or P.E. often minimize writing if it is even practiced at all. How can students be expected to understand high technology if they have trouble forming a coherent thought - one which others can understand and act upon? With all due respect to teachers and professors in fields such as math and science, if a student fails to grasp numbers or formulas, he or she is only deficient in
those subjects. However, if a student fails that student

Communication and understanding language goes much deeper than an ability to read a newspaper, magazine, or comic book. It is a tragedy that many of today's students have tremendous ideas, yet they do not have the means of expressing them. The mindless and excessive use of video - as in the latest venture of a "video" magazine - is obscene pandering to poor and ~ninsl?ir~d ~ommunicators. Language ~eqm~es ?Isciphne,_ thoughtfulness, insight, 1magmat10n, and vigorous practice. Confucius perhaps best summed up the need for effective communication when he said, "If language is not correct, then what is said is not what is meant; if what is said is not what is meant, then what ought to be done remains undone." We all must become masters of communicatio~.. ~rough ~ore directed reading and wntmg m our hves and in our classrooms, we will learn to communicate our thoughts and ideas with dexterity - free from ambiguity and drivel. For, it is only through the power of carefully chosen words that we can hope to inform and entertain ourselves and defend our way of life.
ou don't matter.
Y You don't count. You can't make a difference. The most commonly heard excuses for not voting reflect a mentality that could be defined by these statements. The problem is not one of low self-esteem on a mass scale, but rather one of ignorance and apathy. People recede into apathy, convinced that their one paltry little vote cannot possibly have any affect on the monumental problems faced by society.

The fallacy of color By Mark Muse
When is the human race going to wake up and take an accurate look at itself, instead of being bound to traditional views that come out of a history of racism and sexism? My case in point, the widely accepted usage of the words "black" and "white" to describe huge portions of humanity. You can look all over the world and you will not fmdone person who is actually the color white. Even albinos of the human species are not white; their skin takes on a pink hue due to the fact that they are ftlled . with blood. I have never seen a person so dark that they could be considered black. Most people in the world are different shades ofbrown. As a matter of fact, certain people who are considered "black" area lighter shade What nonsense. One needn't have any awareness of the of brown than certain people who social condition whatsoever to understand are considered "white." So, from where do all these misthat voting makes a difference.

By Adam P. Segal I was on my way to school the other day and I came to the comer of Union and Branham Lane where I noticed a sign announcing a future exit for Highway 85. Great! I thought How easy it will be to get to the Almaden Valley, or Highways 280 and 101 when 85 is finished. No longer will I have to drive a whole mile to wait in line at the Highway17 entrance. Now that's what I call progress, and thank God for it! As I turned onto Branham, I
began driving past the lots where houses have been leveled to make room for Highway 85. Five blocks of tracked houses have been swept away. Five blocks of eye-sores, dead lawns, and unpainted Camaros in disrepair had thankfully disappeared. Something else was gone too. Five blocks of families were gone, some of whom I'd known, whose houses I'd sat in while watching the 49ers win the Superbowl. Five blocks of living rooms where fathers had spilled beer, where mothers had fallen asleep on the couch
whileKNTV signedofftheair, were gone. Missing were the back doors where dogs named Dante and Philco had scratched to go out or come in. Five blocks of back doors now lay in the dump, dog scratches intact How many doorways, marked with Johnny's or Mary's height at each birthday, were now in that dump? Five blocks worth. The oil marks on the driveways were gone. The driveways where fathers had taught sons to change oil, and mothers had taught daughters to ride 2-wheelers had all vanished. And

"I would have to say the most pressing issue facing the college district in a general sense is that the colleges don't seem to be meeting our needs. This is shown by statistics that show that many students are leaving our district The specific statistics I am referencing are the attendance reports by zip code from the State Chancellor's Office. These reports show where students attend and which zip codes they reside in. It's pretty serious that students have to leave our district and drive all the way across town to a neighboring district to get the education they need. As a long time resident of San Jose, I know the reputation of City · College isn't the best and reputations are a hard thing to change. That's unfortunate for a lot of reasons. One being there is a lot of highly qualified faculty there [City College] and it also has a very congenial environment Our colleges seem to be a place that students don't want to go." 2. "I think there is a lot to be done. The district, as it is now has come to be that way over a number of years. I think we have to search for innovative things for the college to do. I would, as a board member, reach out to local businesses to get them interested in projects with the school, concentrate on bringing prestige to the colleges."

'Late Night with David Letterman book of Top Ten Lists'
:it
By Adam P. Segal
in
Yes folks, the greatest book ever written is finally out! No, not the Bible, it's the "Late Night with David Letterman book of Top Ten Lists." For those few who are unfamiliar the David Letterman's momentous television show, the reading of top ten lists are a show tradition bordering on religious significance for David Letterman fans. In these lists, Letterman, along with his staff of writers put current events in comedic perspective for all of America. This book is a compilation of those lists. Just like on the show, some of the top ten lists are hilarious, some are real chucklers, and some are total bombs. But, unlike on the show where David Letterman can make even the sleepiest top ten lists funny, when they bomb in print they just plain bomb. For instance, in the "Top Ten Ways Life Would be Different if

than on the twelve video clips that make up "Lifestyles of the Ramones," which spans the last ten years in the life of the world's first punk rock band. In look and sound, 1980's "Do You Remember Rock'n'Roll Radio" bares little difference from 1990's "/ Believe in Miracles." There lies the beauty of the Ramones. These four mop-topped New Yorkers: Joey, Dee Dee, Marky, and Johnny, pioneered their oftencopied, buzz-saw guitar sound back in 1975, and have never lost focus. Between video clips for such Ramones' classics as "Psycho Therapy," "Pet Sematary," and "Merry Christmas (I Don't Want to Fight)," vocalist Joey Ramone, drummer Marky Ramone and guitarist Johnny Ramone (not related) give insight to the band's history, personal lives, various line-up changes and relative lack of commercial success. "It wasn't always peaches and

teams, this team will feature a very balanced scoring attack with no one player expected to pour in the majority of the points. "We are a blue-collar team with a lot of hard workers, strong defense, and a high motion offense. It will be impossible for any team to expect to shut down one key player and win- all our players are key," stated Coach Carr. As in past years the stiffest competition for the Conference title will come from West Valley Community College, Chabot College, and San Francisco City College. "Last year those three teams posted 20 win seasons. They are very competitive," said Coach Carr. The Jaguars finished 2nd in the Conference last year with a 24 and 8 season. The first two games of the season should provide some indication as to how mature and competitive this year's Jaguars will be.

Lady Jag cagers expect to have winning season By Michael Hodgson This year's San Jose City College women's basketball team is gunning for a winning season- the first in recent memory. "I have had a very good recruiting year," stated Head Coach Terri Oberg. With only two sophomores, one returning and one transfer from Foothill and nine freshmen, Coach Oberg has the challenge of shaping a young, but eager team. "The players have a lot of heart and intensity. Their attitudes are great making it a lot offun for me to coach," said Coach Oberg. The lady Jaguars are small, but well balanced. Fundamentally, the Jags are much stronger than past teams according to Coach Oberg. 'The players have a lot ofathletic ability and understand the game extremely well which will allow us to be much more competitive and fun to watch than in past seasons," remarked Oberg. Offensively the team looks

Almost, but not quite By Mark Gomez The Jaguar football team, coming off a loss to the College of San Mateo, 24-17, will host West Valley at7p.m.Saturday,Nov.3. This will be the Homecoming game, and is the last home game for the Jags. The Jags were tied late in the fourth quarter, butS an Mateo scored on a 32 yard draw play with 1:05 remaining in the game. The Jags tri~ to get in a last minute drive but ran out of time. ''The defense played real well. Offensively, we had two fumbles and two interceptions, which hurt us,"said Coach Howard Gay. Neither offense was able to move the ball well, San Mateo gained 169 total offensive yards compared to the Jags 189. DanJoyner, the Jagquarterback, completed 6 of 20 passes for 79 yards and two touchdowns. He also gave up one interception. John McClendon, the other Jag quarterback, completed 5 for 8 passes for 37 yards and one interception. The Jag's leading rusher was Jason Moeckel,a5' 11' running back from Del Mar, who gained 83 yards in 15 carries. Coach Gay feels that this fmal home game will be "something to get excited about," mainly because this will be a chance for the Jags to go 2-0 against teams from Santa

Clara county. Since West Valley, DeAnza and Foothill left the league, the Jags are fortunate if they play one of these teams during the season. They have already beaten Foothill 41-27, and Coach Gay would very much like to see his team beat West Valley. Coach Gay believes records won't mean a thing, and anything can happen. "We pride ourselves when we play teams from Santa Clara county", said Coach Gay. The Jags are 18-3 against teams from Santa Clara county since Coach Gay became head coach in 81. Coach Gay recalled how big the rivalries were between the schools in the conference before they got broken up, and how teams would get up when they played each other. "Rivalries were real big when I firs t got here (in 81)." said Coach Gay. "Kids who played together and against each other in high school were now playing in college." The Jags, who are presently 2-5, have a chance to fmish the season playing .500 football . There are three remaining games, West Valley at home, and San Francisco and Delta away. Coach Gay feels that one of the reasons for the 2-5 record is not lack of talent but lack of depth. "It would be nice to have five or ten more players in the fourth quarter," said Coach Gay.
The San Jose City College women's volleyball team defeated Laney College last Friday, Oct. 26, by 15-1 in a fourth game that decided the match victory for the Jags and gave the team a current record of 4-3 in the Golden Gate Conference Games and 7-5 overall. The Jags were to confront San Francisco City College Wednesday, Oct 31, but results were not available at printing time. Coach Sam Huerta is confident and thinks that the team is playing well both defensively and offensively. "Our team is very well balanced and confidence is very strong," Huerta said, "but nobody will know until the end." The Jags had brought home a match victory over Diablo College Oct 24. That time the score read 157 in the fifth and deciding game. The Jaguars ' defense was led by Joan Besmer with 17 digs, while Maria Orozco and Mishka Carmichael scored seven and ten solo blocks respectively.

If undefeated, the Jaguars will participate in the Nor-Cal Championships, and then in State Championships towards the end of the month.

Top hitter Kitty Bittenbender sparked the offense with 11 kills, followed by Maria Orozo and Joan Besmer with seven kills each. "This was our first win in Diablo at their place in four years," said Coach Huerta, who also thinks that the team 's togetherness is contributing to the success. "The team is playing together and focusing much better as a unit, this results in high caliber of play when meeting top teams." The Jags are ready to keep go-

On Oct 3, the police received a call informing them of possible drug dealing activity on the soccer field which is located in the south east section of the campus. Officer Iglesias responded to the call and usingwhathecalledapreuy good description of the person, located the individual in question. The individual had a gold club in hand, along with bag and a bicycle for means of transportation. The person was asked for their identification, but was unable to provide an ID with a picture.
