These advantages are, "Basically the same, in the past, as far as I know there've been student discounts," said Cisper "There's merchants in the area that give our students discounts,"said Santos.

Editorial
Politics polluted by Wilson oes the line, "I am not a crook," D sound familiar? Well, it just might be heard again if Governor Wilson ever becomes President Wilson. Wilson's entire presidential campaign is based on a pedestal of lies and political parlor tricks. Wilson lied to California voters in order to win last year's election for governor, vowing that if he was re-elected he would not run for president. He was re-elected in November and 11 weeks later he announced his candidacy for president. Wilson vowed not to raise taxes in California, but he did. Balancing the budget was the only reason he gave for breaking his trusted oath. But then promises, like laws, are meant to be broken. Again Wilson succeeded in the same political hocus-pocus by attacking affirmative action, despite his 20 year record of supporting government preferences for women and minorities. Wilson has suggested to the American public in his campaign, that strong parents, good schools, a new welfare system and hard work would allow all Americans, regardless of their age, race or sex, to compete fairly for jobs, government contracts and university slots. But the sad truth is, there are a lot of racist people in this world and regardless of what Wilson thinks he can do, America is far from being a fair place. Even Wilson has admitted that we have not reached Martin Luther King Jr.'s dream of a color-blind society. Wilson has always been a career
politician, using social issues to catapult himself to higher positions on the political ladder. Wilson jumped on the environmental issues before Earth Day. He then used the anger of illegal immigration to fuel his reelection as the governor of California. A scapegoat comparable to Adolf Hitler and his attack on Jews. Wilson used Proposition 187 to help his re-election and has stated that illegal immigration will be a part of his campaign. The legality of Proposition 187 is in question. Wilson was asked to submit regulations on defining the terms that are being argued, such as the evidence needed to "reasonably suspect" illegal immigrants. Wilson said in response that the opponents of Proposition 187 should have to prove that the proposition cannot be interpreted by constitutional standards. Does this sound like a man who can get the job done? The government has enough problems without having Wilson in office, who uses his political magic tricks to divert the publics attention from the real issues. California is the most important state in the union during election time. In order for Wilson to become the next president he most likely needs to win California. Other states have no idea who he is and what he has done in the past, but the citizens of the electoral powerhouse California do know. It's up to Californian voters to stop Wilson from ruining the country the way he ruined California. Wilson has to be shown that his lies and lip service won 't be stood for.

A fairly attractive young man is standing against a wood paneled back drop wearing nothing but a pair of short denim shorts. Bright lights are shining on him and he seems somewhat uncomfortable when the voice of an older gentleman begins to ask him questions including name, age and where he is from. Ina lascivious manner, the older gentlemanstartstomakecomments about the young man's nice blue eyes and how well he fits his shorts. The young man is visually uncomfortable. The old man laughs. A young girl is asked to tum around so the older gentleman can "check her out". Sensing her discomfort, he asks her why she's uncomfortable. The young girl responds that it's because she doesn't know what he is going to ask her. The older gentleman laughs. Sound shocking? It is just a small part of a new commercial ad campaign for Calvin Klein Jeans. Calvin Klein is known for its controversial ads that sometimes pushes the envelope of taste, but the new ad campaign reeks of soft core kiddie porn. These commercials are only two out of a series of commercials spotlighting young models who appear to be underage, being questioned and prompted by an older gentleman. Each commercial is as
shocking anddisturbingas the next. The print ads that appear in magazines, billboards, and on sides of busses consist of the same young models in suggesti veand shocking poses. It is common to use sex to sell anything from cars to cologne, but to tum young children into sex objects to sell a pair of jeans is just sick. Itdoesn'tmatterifthemodels are of age, the fact that they all look younger than eighteen sends the wrong messages to the wrong people. The Calvin Klein ads were not embraced with open anns. Many people protested including Seventeen magazine who refused to run the ads. Calvin Klein was forced to release a statement stating that the ads focused on the models' personalities and anyone who got anything else from the ads was picking up on something that wasn't there. After days of protests and threats of boycotts, Calvin Klein gave in to the pressure and decided to pull the ads . Of course, in all the uproar over the ads, Calvin Klein received an enormous amount of publicity which is exactly what was wanted. Unfortunately, this is not the last that we will hear from Calvin Klein. It's just a matter of time before a new campaign is out, but the question is what muck will be scraped up from the bottom of the barrel this time?

"City College rolls out the red carpet... I feel confident that the college will continue to support the math institute next summer," said Raul Rodriguez, City College interim president.
The grand finale to the seven week mathematics experience took place at the San Jose Arena. Ouring the honors ceremony, each student's name was in lights and eachcollege/universitybannerwas proudly displayed. "It was quite impressive," said Rodriguez. Sounds and sights were exciting and definitely a spectacular cuimination to a summery mathematical commitment for students and teachers alike. ~--~-

Jags claw their way to victory Rainey and Choi are stars in season opener by Lynda Pearson Staff Writer
The wind may have hampered the kicking, but it did not take control over the game. Due to a strong defense that was responsible for at least 6 turnovers, which included a fumble recovery in the end zone, theSanJos6CityCollege football team was going strong to achieve the taste of victory. The Jaguars performed a little out of sync which is typical for the first game. The Jaguars played against the Solano College Falcons, Bay Valley Conference Eastern Division Champions and Iron Bowl Participant from 1994. The play at time was inconsistent. but the Jags managed to pull out a victory against the Falcons by a score of 23 to 9. "Good win ! Good way to start." said head coach Howard Gay. Key players of the offense and defense were freshmen tailback Clifton Rainey, outside line backer Jason Choi and sophomores Andre Caballero and Zane Hawkin s, quarterback and defensive back respectively. Rainey carried the balllO times for a total of 120 yards. Rainey felt that the Jaguars did good things. Especially the defense which kept them ahead of t11e game. "I want to thank my linemen for giving me better holes than in high school. The linemen are strong and I feel glad to be behind them," said
Rainey." Thanks to the whole team for pulling out a victory." Choi caught an interception worth 27 yards which helped set tlle tempo for a strong defensive game. Choi' s night was not over as he snatched up a fumble in tlle end zone.

Caballero completed 20 out of 27 passes for a total of 250 yards. Caballero showed his talent Ill rough a good passing game which resulted in one touchdown and zero interceptions. Hawkins covered his receiver like a blanket and told him when to go to bed as he intercepted a pass for 6 yards. Earlier, Gay said tllat he felt pretty good about t11e Jaguars after tlleir first scrimmage. The team played in a four-way scrimmage Sept. 2. The Jags played against bowl teams from 1994, which included Modesto Jr. College, Laney College and Sacramento City College. They played witll good and stable programs tllatresulted in no injuries.
