Eastin challenges adults' commitment to education by Margaret Bethel Campus Editor
State Assemblywoman Delaine Eastin keynoted the events. Kristine Werner/The Times
"When I grew up in California, the adults were serious about education and the kids knew it. I wonder bow serious the adults are now," said Assemblywoman Delaine Eastin, preparing the business and civic leaders from all over Santa Clara County for the many problems facing public schools today. The 270 participants became aware of the challenges confronting our public schools on Tuesday, March 23, during the third annual "Principal for a Day" program. This program, organized by the San Jose Chamber of Commerce, was created in order to show the connection between the business community and schools. Participants, employees of Lockheed, IBM, Pacific Bell and many other companies committed to education, bad the opportunity to act as principal for a day at one

of the host schools throughout the county. The event began with a "get acquainted" reception on March 22, in the College Union at San lost City College, with Eastin as the keynote speaker. This gave the participants and the principals an opportunity to meet for the flrst time and become motivated by Eastin's pleas to improve our school system. Eastin explained to her audience the astounding decisions principals are forced to make everyday, and the number of programs being ignored due to California's lack of education funds. "We have materials miseducating our children," she stated. During a recap of her own experience as principal for a day, Eastin explained bow her host schools library contained books that suggested men might someday land on the moon. Eastin suggested many ways to improve our school system. "We ought to have as a policy in this state ... strategic planning ... computerized schools ... and more overall school days a year." Eastin urged participants to become more involved and "to believe in these kids and let them know that we do care and we are serious." As an added bonus to this year's event, corporate and community
'When I grew up in California, the adults were serious about education and the kids knew it. I wonder how serious the adults are now.' Delaine Eastin State Assembly leaders who served as principals had the chance to return the warm welcome they received at the local schools with a program entitled "Focus on the Future." "Focus on the Future" was the idea behind a student shadow program which transpired from March 23 to the 26. This program brought students and their teachers into local companies for shadowing and many other career researching opportunities. Visits ranged from students being given the chance to be paired individually with a mentor for the day, experiencing flrst-band the daily tasks of their host's profession, to joining a group of up to ten students visiting a worksiteand learning the primary steps used in running the company.

Editorial
Solve real problems first an Jose is plagued with problems, but instead of trying to solve them, the City Council is creating new ones. The eastside of San Jose has been the blight of Silicon Valley for years. Businesses on the east-side have suffered because many of their customers are afraid to cross the tracks into this bad neighborhood unless it is into a well, guarded place like Eastridge Mall, or some other strip mall, and then only during the day. Instead of trying to clean up this crime, infested area, the City Council and police department are finding busy-work so they can claim to be too busy to be a part of any possible solution. For years, our council has been debating whether or not to close the ReedHillview Airport instead of facing real issues. The airport, although awkwardly close to the mall, operates without too many problems. We don't read in the paper everyday of a plane taking a nose dive into the mall, so why close down one of

It is nearly impossible for the U.S. to bunt down and kill individual terrorists. Nor can the U.S. start attacking countries like Iran andLebanon, wbosupport andgive safe refuge to various terrorist organizations. This would only unite the Arab world against the west The only defense against these ruthless soldiers of the neverending war is security. The most common terrorist targets are airlines and airports. Regulating international passengers and using X-ray machines and drug-sniffing dogs to investigate baggage would go a long way in controlling this menace. After a terrorist attack, it is customary for the U.S. and allies to announce, "We have declared war on terrorism." Such statements reveal a misconception about this never-ending form of conflict, for it is impossible to declare war on war. Equally unsatisfactory are monikers used by practitioners of violence. They bate to be called terrorists, and dignify themselves as ''Freedom Fighters." But what kind of freedom are they fighting for? Certainly not the kind we in America enjoy. Terrorism makes most Americans feel vulnerable, fearful and angry. Most people would like to takesomekindofimmediateaction in retaliation . The fact is, there are no simple solutions and we are the biggest trophy to win for an aspiring terrorist today.

This strategy has paid off handsomely, as statistics show that 90 percent of UTA engineering graduates are remaining to work in Texas. Wilson's slash-and-burn tactics for dealing with the economy is only digging a deeper hole for California and all its residents. Perhaps he should be dropped in that hole and covered up like rank garbage.

Jags Win conference opener against West Valley College by Sean Peterson Sports Editor
The San Jost City College men's track and field team earned a victory in their Golden Gate Conference opener by beating league rival, West Valley College, 77-41. "I thought we were a few points underdog going in, but it was a good meet," said head coach Stephen Haas about the recent victory over West Valley. Freshman Terry Fulton was named, "Jaguar of the Week," by his teammates after his first meet of the season and for good reason. Fulton just finished his frrst season as a member of the men's basketball team. But with only two days of workouts he managed to place frrst in three events. Fulton won the 110-meter high hurdles in 15.4seconds. And Curtis Riley took third place with a time of 16.5 seconds. Fulton also ran well to capture frrst place in the 400-meter intermediatehurdles,clocking inat60.5 seconds. Fulton's performance was not

a total surprise, because Fulton was a Central Coast Section champion in both these events when he attended Mt. Pleasant High School. The only surprise was how fast he got into shape. Fulton was also a member of the 4 x 100-meter relay team that took first place with a time of 42.4 seconds. The other members of the relay team included Sophomores Oliver Santicruz, Jaime Lawson and Ato Boldon. Boldon was another brightspot for the Jaguars. However, there was some concern about his eligibility status before the West Valley meet. In August, Boldon participated in theJ unior World Championships that were held in Seoul, Korea. Consequently, he missed some classes at the beginning of the semester. However, Boldon made up for the time that he had missed and was declared eligible the day of the meet, March 19. Boldon proved his worth to the team by taking first in the 100 and 200-meter dashes. He came in at 10.2 seconds in the 100 and 21.4

All-state team names Barnett to first string

"We're not worthy! We're not worthy ...," shout Wayne and Garth, but freshman standout Vincent Barnett certainly is. Barnett, one of California's top community collegebasketball players, was named to the first string of the all-state team. He had a solid season for Head Coach Percy Carr. "Weare just very pleased that a freshman was selected to the allstate team," said Carr about Barnett. Thestarforwardaveraged 19.7 points a game and accumulated 671 career points in his frrstseason at San Jost City College, many of those coming from well behind the tllfee-point arc. Barnett proved to be quite active as a rebounder with a 6-foot-5 pulling down an average 7.3 rebounds a game. He also played solid defense, averaging 2.8 steals. The men's basketball team will be very competitive next season with Barnett and the other returning athletes.

Jags light up San Francisco during a 5 inning, 16-1 rout by Scott Sisto Staff Writer
The San Jost City College softball team has been facing the most unavoidable opponent of all outdoor sports- rain. Rain has halted progression of the Jaguars past two league games at home and last weekends Sierra tournament in Sacramento. All games are being rescheduled by the City College coaching staff. The Jaguars were tied for second place after their last completed game against San Mateo City College. This Golden Gate Conference season match took place in San Mateo. In the game at San Mateo, San Jose City slipped by, scoring on a wild pitch. The Jags had runners at second and third, and San Mateo decided topitchout TheSanMateopitcher tllfew a wild pitch, allowing Alisa ·Tipton to make a break home, giving the Jags the game 2-1. Tipton was 3 for 4 at the plate, with two errors on the field. Molina improved her perfect pitching record to 3-0.
The poor weather conditions made the next possible game for Jaguars against the City College of San Francisco this last Tuesday in San Francisco. The girls of City College had a climactic game in San Francisco, scoring more runs each inning till the ten run rule came in to play. This rule is that after five innings of play, if either of the teams are ahead by ten or more runs, the game is then called. The Jaguars were tied after the frrst at one a piece with San Francisco. The Jaguars then offensively and defensively crushed their opponents with ease. The second inning was the turning point as the Jaguars defensive overwhelmed San Francisco throughout the remainder of the game. The winningpitcherforCity College was Freshman, Julie Mendiola. She allowed only one hit in the first inning and then shut them down completely during the final four. Freshman Leslie Gonzales and Susan Lobato doubled, and Mendiola had a stand up triple to help the Jaguars slaughter San

Colin one of the teams co-captains also added, "We are play-off bound." Some of the other team members felt the same about the teams future. Sanchez said, "Were definitely to the playoffs. Oh yeah, were going," exclaimed Perez. The Jags are currently 4-1 in Golden Gate Conference play and are standing frrmly in second place in front of San Mateo and behind San Joaquin Delta College who is currently 5-0.

Bookstore to move in April by Ilene Meeks Entertainment Editor
When students return from Spring break, they will find the San Jost City College Bookstore at its new borne for the time being. The Bookstore will be moving next door to the warehouse for the remainder of this semester to make room for a estimated $400,000 remodeling job, which should begin in early May. "At this point we are in the infant stages. The drawings are done .... once the bid is closed, hopefully it will be Board (of Trustees) approved in April and start construction on May 1," said Bookstore Director, Dave Painter. The renovated bookstore will not open in time for the start of the Fall semester., but the wait will be over when itreopens in late August or early September.
