KJCC off the air for FCC violation

by Jack Pavey Opinion Editor

San Jose City College radio station KJCC was volunk-uily shut down on Nov. 3, after a Federal Communications Commission representitive cited a possible violation of FCC regulations.

According to U1e KJCC Director orBroadcasting, Ray Collins, a consulting engineer working for San Francisco radio sk1tion KKSF had somehow picked up KJCC's signal and called FCC representatives who responded wit11 a surprise visit to t11e KJCC studio.

"He (The FCC representative claimed) U1e strength of t11e signal was in violation of FCC regulations," said Dr. Collins. KJCC broadcasts on 104.1 FM, and is allowed a peak broadcast level of I 00 milliwatts, which should only carry t11e KJCC signal as far as the

immediate vicinity of City College.

Audio-visual specialist and KJCC engineer Jim Campbell. explained that a transmitter malfunction may have caused t11e signal to be broadcast a~ strong as 11 1/2 watts, which would be a possible code violation.

"We're waiting for a engineer to certify the station for code so we can continue broadcasting," said Campbell.

In t11e meantime, plans are being malle to broadcast KJCC programming into the College Union so broadcasting classes can continue. FCC representatives were unavailable for comment.

K.ICC,Iocated in room 212, has moved back to a open format t11is semester, featuring a wide variety of music and specialty shows, as well as plans for news broadca~ts written by journalism students.

After two weeks of boycotting t11e San Jose City Cafe, t11e ASC is beginning to negotiate wit11 n:presentatives of t11e cafe's management.

The ASC representatives were given a chance to voice t11eir objections, in person, to t11e high prices to t11e managment of t11e dining services.

Editorial

Clintonomics for the 90's baaaaaaaack. After 12 years T ofhey're kinder, gentler mercenary businessmen, it's time to roll out the pork barrel and dig a little deeper into our barren pockets for the Democratic kitty.

Indeed, the Demos are back and the piper ... uh, sax player... must be paid.

Throughout its history, the Democratic Party has called itself the party of the people, meaning that instead of spending middle-class tax dollars on absurd, nonfunctional weapons systems, middle-class tax dollars will be spent on absurd, nonfunctional social welfare programs.

The quick-fix rhetotic of Presidentelect Clinton's campaign platform was really nothing new. Starting with F.D.R.'s "New Deal" during the great depression, the Democrats have always promised everything to key voter blocks, set up bureaucratic federal agencies headed by political cronies and then

giggled helplessly as all the fu nding was being spent on bales of red tape.

Promising everything to everybody has been the key to the White House since the beginning, which is why American politics seem so schizophrenic. Examples of Clinton's platform: create more jobs for the American people, but save money by cutting 100,000 federal jobs; cut the deficit, but spend 20 billion-a-year on a "Rebuild America" fund; stimulate the economy, but impose insurance and job training burdens on potential employers.

This nation is three trillion dollars in debt. Until that problem is rectified, all other issues are moot.

The glib solutions that rolled off Clinton's tongue during the campaign are in stark contrast to a statement he made the day after the election: "It will not be easy," he finally decided. No, it won ' t be easy.

Not for any of us.

The boycott of City Cafe is justif ied ecently, San Jose City Cafe put up a billboard showing that their prices were the same, if not lower, than the cafeteria at San Jose State University's prices, in response to the Associated Students Council contention that the prices at City Cafe were too high.

A quick check on our own revealed that at SJSU you can get a large bowl of soup for $1.30, compared to $1.55 at the City Cafe. A large glass of orange juice

will set you back $2.50 here or $1.75 at SJSU. A pancake at SJSU costs $1.10 but is $1.60 at the City Cafe. City Cafe carefully ommitted those items which were higher priced from the cafe's comparison of itself and the food service at SJSU. While we at the Times believe the ASC has engaged in some needless posturing regarding the boycott of the City Cafe, the prices are too high, and the boycott is justified.

Editor: I would like to separate myself from my fellow scholars. For one moment. I recently overheard two administrators gossiping about the recent revolt to the prices in the San Jose City Cafe. One administrator said to another, " You know the students are boycotting the cafe ...".

Please enter it into the record that this student is neither boycotting the cafe nor believes that the prices are unfair or "too expensive." We are in a recession and the cafe, like any for profi t organization must provide a cash-flow, for the college can notal low it to operate at a deficit. The cafe is efficient, clean, affordable, and offers a great variety of foods for its size and price su·ucture.

What I do think is "too expensive" was exemplified by the roach coach land sharks who were present during the reconstruction. The price structure of items at the mobile kitchens was double that of the

"cafe" for most items. Yet, st:. dents flocked to them without peep about the insane prices-S2.) for a small egg roll and rice! ! Wh are we fooling?

Politicians' wish -list

by Jack Pavey Opinion Editor

Altl10ugh it's only November, Christmas displays are starting to spring up at some stores- a desperate attempt to coax the public to start spending so retailers can fend off their creditors a few more months.

Unfortunately, everyone who isn ' talready lining up at t11e unemployment office is cringing as they open up t11eir pay envelopes, praying that U1e dreaded pink slip won ' t be riding shotgun along with t11eir check. People can ' t eve n afford Christmas stockings thi s year, much less the price of a few pounds of coal to stuff t11em witl1.

Let's face it: t11e economy is in the dumper, unemploym ent is climbing, and if Americacan ' tfind some U1ing better to man ufaclUre than over-priced computers, cars that fal l apart, and now worthless weapons systems, we' ll all be giving each other clay ashtrays for the holidays well into U1e next century.

Clinton will benefit nation

by Margaret Bethel Staff Writer

"My fellow Americans, on this day, with high hopes and brave hearts, in massive numbers, the American people have voted to make a new beginning ... " said Presidentelect Bill Clinton, during his victory speech.

Going back to the Democratic Convention, the main idea of their platform has been change. After 12 years of Presidential monotony, the American people have come to the same conclusion. Change is not just a slogan, it is a necessity for the American people.

With his goal of"investing in America," Clinton restores hope to the middle-class families who work harder every year and earn less. His idea for a National Health Care plan excites American families who spend a significant percentage of their income on health insurance.

Clinton generates renewed fai~ in envi-

ronmental groups, who had given up on the Bush Administration. His choice of VicePresident elect AI Gore, an environmentalist, as a running mate, told us that Clinton will give more attention to environmental problems than did are previous President.

The people of the United States endured mud-slinging campaigns, avoidance of issues, and thought provoking debates from all three candidates. And they considered the consequence of their vote very seriously.

Some people were still undecided up until the actual day of the election, when they closed the curtain and faced their blank ballots.

Re-electing President Bush would have meant the American people accepted the mess their country is in, and even worse, allowed it to continue.

After 12 years of conservative Republican policies, America has finally found the "courage to change" in its forty-second President, Bill Clinton.

"I think they should talk to food services before boycotting and try to negotiate."

Years of hardship ahead

by Christopher Gear Editor-in-Chief

America has bitten off its nose to spite its face.

It is clear that the general public wanted change in this November, but what we ended up with is a Capitol Hill full of free-spending democrats and four more years of business as usual.

As you probably knew the Democratic party won the White House and maintained control of both theHouseofRepresentatives and Senate.

Now that the election is over it is pointless to argue who should have been elected but how the election was won and what will happen in the future is still important.

The how is simple, a biased media.

It was apparent throughout the entire campaign which candidates were favored by the liberal media. The question of Clinton's draft was never answered, Boxer's

hundred-plus bounced checks at the Congressional Bank were conviently forgotten, and Feinstein's massive blunders as mayor of San Francisco were never mentioned.

What we have to look forward to is four years of two-faced government. Promises to create new jobs but too also decrease defense spending which means the loss of 1000's of jobs not only in California but all over the nation.

A pledge was made to protect the rights ofindividuals, like a woman' s righttochoose and gay rights, but too also revoke the individual's right to bear arms, even for self-defense.

A promise to raise the taxes of only the rich but for the plan to raise the amount quoted taxes would raise for any couple making over $56,000. That is not rich.

On November 3 about 45% of the active voters made choices with their hearts and not their heads. Now the rest of the nation will pay for it.

Exotic Erotic Ball lives up to billing

by Danny Sarinana Staff Writer

"Live and let live," a phrase oflen used in describing freedom of expression. And expressing is exactly what took place at San Francisco's Exhibition Center.

1l1e occasion was Halloween. The event was the annual "Exotic Erotic Ball." The dress code, anylhing of flesh tone.

There we were, my four friends and I in San Francisco driving towards 8th and Branham.

We were running late because we were still comem plating even attending the exotic gala.

When we finally got up the courage to go, we had run U1e risk of U1e event being sold out, and much to our fear, it was.

Luckily, we found ourselves a friendly scalper on a nearby comer, ready to cut usa reasonable deal. We were U1ru1kful this tall, lanky, pale man, (who resembled Kramer of U1e TV silcom Seinfeld), was alone. So wilh lhe help of some courteous influence from ow· pruty, U1e tia.nsaction was completed.

Walking towards U1e 100 yard long line of anxious expressionists, we noticed U1at U1e tickets we had just purchased were actually all access passes.

Which meant we were free to go back stage where all U1e YIP's hung out and t11e passes allowedustogodirecUyU1rough wilhout waiting in line. 13ut be-

The first thing I noticed in the Exhibition Center, was t11at shyness was nowhere to be found.

In fact, U1e first people U1at confronted us left very little to the imagination. They were two completely nude bohemian looking woman whose body contours were overshadowed by excessive cellulite covering t11eir anatomies.

They asked if we would like to lake a picture wit11 U1em, much to U1eir surprise, there were no volunteers.

As we continued Uu·ough U1is maze of flesh, I couldn't help but notice lhis well built protruding blonde women, who stood about 5'2" .

outfit with breast openings cut out, approached us vigorously.

She asked my friend Fernando what we bad planned for the rest of the night. He replied that we were beaded to San Jose.

She then proceeded to put her band on his buttocks and asked if we would like to join a private party at a nearby hotel.

Intrigued, we asked what sort of get together this was going to be and it was a good thing we asked, because "a free for all orgy" wasn't exacU y the kind of party we bad in mind.

Even though I was caught un-

My respect goes out to all who expressed themselves freely, but mainly to tllose exposed bodies that weren't exactly replicas of Gods or Goddesses.

For myself, I don't plan to attend next year, but chances are I will probably be talked into it by my friends.

------------The Jaguars will take to tile court for the first time tilis season opening llleir season at home, Friday Nov .13, against the College of Sequoias.

Last years team, led by head coach Percy Carr, made it to llle quarter-finals of tile state's community college basketball tournament but was defeated by southem-California's second ranked Long Beach Community College, 90-82.

Carr expects to return to the playoffs again this year, but does not hope for a repeat performance of last years playoff game.

"We shot poorly. Too many people put too much emphasis on having a big guy. (To win) you have to get people who are willing to sacrifice and play togemer as a team. I place no premium on having a big guy."

CruT believes he has a good team lllis year with four returning players ar1d hard working freshmen with lots of potential.

City College's toughest opponent in the Golden Gate Conference will be Diablo Valley College. Diablo's main strength is returning players who have valuble playing experience lacking at City College.

"Our goal is to develop every player to ti1e best of ti1eir ability. If we do that, tile wins and los ·es will take care of ti1emselves."

The Jaguars regular sew;on begins wiU1 a four garne home st<md which will include the College or Sequoias, Fresno City , Skyline

LAST CHANCE! Just a reminder that Noll. 21 is the last day any student may drop a class and receille a "W" grade. Don't forget!!

and Gavilan before going on tile very exciting team this season and road to face De Anza College in I would like to see more students come out to the games and support Cupertino.

Coach Percy said,"We have a tl1eir team." .
