Agriculture ClassPromote~
II Members The first eleven graduates of the two year agricultural course at Pal omar College received their diplomas from director Laurence H. Jackson on December 6. The men were the first of 120 farmer students to complete the course set up under the auspices of the Veteran's Administration; prior military service being a requirement. As ir now exists the Ag p rogram at Palomar College is ·ihe biggest in the State and will be increased to 160 students in January 1949. As Jackson presented the certificates to the graduates he spoke of the growing importance of this type of vocational education in the public sc;hools. Said Jackson, "In a world that is rapidly outgrowirJg its food supply we must develop a· more intensive agricultural program. The only way we can increase our production is to teach farmers to grow more food on less land." The group of men, having completed the "beginners course," will be eligible for the advanced course ro be started in October of 1949. At t~at time another class will have completed the elementary course and be ready for advanced work. The course, as set up under the adult education program and supervised by Jackson, includes lectures and counseling by experts in all phases of horticulture. Instructors are drawn from all over the Palomar district .. Outside specialists and field trips to experimental stations are a regular feature. The full time instructors o,f the weekly 3-hour lectures are, beside Jackson, E. A. Drews, E. R. Eggers, Murray Johnson, Willis Corndius, Ambrose De Bard, Elwood Trask. These men are supplemented by another group who pass on the progress and entrance requirements of the class members. l hese men, too, are drawn from the ranks of local farmers who have made a success in their respective 1 ' ds of agriculture.

Little Indians Went Out To Dine All Met Their Fate According To Rhyme That's the last word to come from the Palomar play production "Ten Little Indians," which is to be performed on the 5th and 6th of January. Now that the actors have become acquainted with their characters, the serious work of memorizing lines has become their chief worry. However, the actors are not alone in this worried frame of mind, for the producer, Mr. Kelley, and the stage crew are trying desperately to get the new props ready for the opening night. And while we are mentioning the stage crew, it might be said t.hat they are a bit undermanned and anyone who could give some of their time during the Christmas Holidays to build scene settings should contact Gilbert Gillogly or Mr. Kelley. Almost any evening some of the cast can be seen in the auditorium rehearsing one act or another. That's where the fun begins. As Ray Kerby takes the "femme fatal" lead opposite himself, (that's right, he reads Donna Dysart's part, then his own), Lee Anderson and Carl Nelson are heard softly (at least that's why they say) playing "Cops and Robbers" against the background of Gilbert Gillogly's one-fingered Concerto for the deaf. But despite the din, the iin es come through and are surprisingly well spoken for this early a date in production. Mr. Kelley is ce rtain that on opening night, Jan. 5, he shall have a polished play to present the public. , Reserved seat tickets, at one dollar each, are now on sale in the student book store. General admission tickets will cost eighty cents. All A.S.B. oards from the college and the surrounding high schools will be honored and will cost thirty-five cents each. So, see you on Jan. 5 and 6 at curtain time.

STUDENTS ASK REPRESENTATION
TEAM CHOOSES VALUABLE PLAYERS
A dance is always a lot of fun and especially so, when it involves the Christmas spirit. Spirits were high and the music was low with the ladies in their formals and the gents in their ties everyone danced the night away to the enchanting music of Rex Phalen's band. When the punch disappeared we resorted to cake but the height of the ;vening came when Ray Kerby gave his read ing and introduced Santa Claus who gave everyone a nice big lolly-pop. The latter part of the evening was devoted partly to singing during which Ross Cope honored the group with a few selections. With everyone dancing and singing and singing and dancing the evening came to a close much too soon and everyone had to go home. The Dance was a lot of tun for everyone who went but it would be even more fun if more would go.
The ~uestion of student representation at faculty meetings is one of utmost importance. It resulted from the JC Conference at Fresno at which Palomar was represented by Tom Canady and Jerry Mattson. Jerry and Tom learned through the various discussions that numerous Junior Colleges do have student repre sentation at faculty meetings in order ro promote a closer coordination between the students and the faculty. Up to the present "time Palomar College has not entered into this practice, but the A.S.B. Council feels hthat such a step would further a necessary working harmony between the Palomar students and the faculty of our College. A request for this represe ntation ha s been presented by the Council through their advisor, Coach Harper.
The Palomar football team got together the other day and polled their votes for Honorary Captain and "Most Valuable Player." Clinton Smith, lanky right end, was the player's choice for captain. Smith had been a standout at end all season. Offen sively his pass snagg ing made him a leading scorer, and on defense he was indispensible, making hi s end a place the opponents feared to tread. Team's choice for "Most Valuable Pl ayer was Lee Anderson. Anderson sparked the "Comets" to two league victories, running wild in the Citrus game, little Lee, 145-pounds of left half, ran for two touchdowns and passed for another. Anderson was the leading ground gainer and also led in passing.

THE PALOMAR STAFF
Treut Raitch Ideal Spot For College Site By standing atop the hill that dominates the site of the future Palomar College one mile north of San Marcos one can see, in the distance, the glint of sun on the blue Pacific. By turning east, one views the mountains of the hilly co untry around Ramona. Now the breeze rustles through dry grass, but one day it will sweep across green lawns of Palomar College. As one stands on this great hill, that for many years has been known only as the "Trent Ranch," it is pleasant to let the imagination run along the years and envision the activity and bustle that will some day surround the campus of the new college. There is the sweep of the rolling greenery; there the gym an the science lab; and there the walks and flower beds. Now it is only a dream. There are things that we want ' to know about the new site. The biggest of these is "when". Before we speak of "when" we must think of a thousand details that go to make up the building of such a project. The 124 acres as it now stands, lacks by 18 acres being excatly rectangular. The Board of Tru~tees is contemplating the purchase of the remaining land to insure easy access from Highway 78. Then there is the ques~ion of water. It takes 30 gallons of water a day for each student. That means 15,000 gallons a day, even at first. That means 450,000 gallons a month. Where are the builders going to get half a million gallons of water in a water-starved land? What kind of soil is this we are standing on? Will it support the agricultural program that will be a big part of the school's curriculum? When these problems have been investigated and solved satisfactorily then it will be necessary to dream other dreams. We must design a suitable grouping of buildings. We must watch the pennies, too. What will be the needs of Palomar College 20 years from now? No one can answer these quescontinued on page 6
Wbat 1!\oe% C!Cbri%tma% .mean to You? All over the Christian world the yuletide season is the traditional homecoming. No matter how far away, how isolated, what problems beset them, college students are everywhere planning to "make it home for Christma s." The trains and bu ses will be loaded with fur coated, silk stockinged girls radiant with expectancy and thrilled at the thought of bursting in t o the welcoming arms of Mother and Dad. The same planes and trains will also be noisy with the boisterous humor of college boys trooping back and forth through the cars trying to strike up acquaintances with those same girls. It is the beginning of the big festive season of the American year. It is Christmas and it means home and fireside and gifts and mother's cooking once more. We of Palomar College are not faced with the traveling problem to such an extent as those who go to far off places for the;r education. We sometimes tend to forget the sanctity of this p!ace too casually called "home". In our racing and tearing about the country we take our bed and board for granted. We assume it is there and we pass it off with a shrug. We can go home when there is no other place to go. But there are those among us who know the value of "four walls and a roof above." They know the real worth of a comforting hand, the strength of a comforting smile when they are weary. The solace of just a little spot in the family circle. If you would know the full worth of this "homecoming" then ask Ted Meyer who spent two years staring at the ceiling from a hospital bed, or Ray Sandlin who turned his thoughts homeward from foreign shores on many a Christmas, or Joe DuErmit and his Christma s seasons aboard a flat top in the Pacific. It is these boys who know what "Home" and Christmas really mean.

Spirit - What Is It? In the past three month s of school the question of spirit has repeatedly been raised. There are those who say, "We need more school spirit"; there are those who ask, "Come out to _+he games and show your school spirit", or yell louder, or create less d1sturbance around the campus, or just show more spirit. Now it is all very well to deal in generalities of this sort as every one is supposed to know just what "School Spirit" is. But do we really understand what it is? Is "School Spirit" something that can be jammed down the throats of young people like so much castor oil? It really isn't but that is the way it seems to be accepted here. School spirit can better be seen if we take some of the elements that go to make it, pull them out into the light and examine them. For instance have you the ability to say "yes" when asked to perform some small chore for the furtherance of some school activity? And even if you do accept somesmall responsibility, do you turn in your best for a good job? Is your empty coke bottle put in the rack or slipped under one of the sofas? Can you pick up a candy wra~per or cigarette butt . to keep the campus tidy without saying or feeling that it isn't your job? All these things make up school spirit. You won't receive thanks on a silver platter or a pat on the back from the president for performing these chores but you can hold your head up with the thought that you have shown your school spirit. Spirit doesn't come in a big fancy package all tied up in pink ribbon s. It is the determination of every student to do just one little thing each day to help +Q..e school do its job bette_r. It is that sense of respon sibility one must have to succeed any place 1n the world, be it at Palomar, in the five and ten, or a pent house office on Fifth Avenue. What can I do to make this school a little better for my having been here? That is the basis of a spirit that could make Palomar one of the most talked of institutions in the country.
To the ancient town of Bethlehem Some shepherds flocked to hear The angel's heavenly symphony The very stars drew near. And the beams they followed that holy night Shine steadily through the years Now guiding our feet as we . mount a rise Now seen through a mist of tears.

The usual question this time of the year is, "What do you want for Christmas? " So yours truly has asked this usual question to some of the usual students around our unusual campus. Here are some of the requests and statements. We have that group who always want one of the opposite sex, (well, anyway, most always want one) . Karen Jones wants most any boy who is 6' 2" and a Teddy Bear for her bed. (The Teddy Bear that is). Stan Cook says that anything short and sweet will please him, and then there is Jeanette Fisher who will settle for an animated hand-warmer. (That is a new word for Him, I mu st say!). Tom Canady wishes for a brunette, 5' 5", and Andy Wickholm, not to be outdone, would like to have a whole harem. (What a man!) And then come the people with transportation problems. R u t h Chung would like to have a new car to replace the convertible she wrecked, and Marilyn Smith wants a maroon convertible (new or used). Marjorie Ting is not so particular, for when asked, she said, "Just a car, any kind of a car." Leo Holland, doesn 't want a new car, just some new windows for the old one, while Lee Anderson is looking for a fa ster way to Coachella. (Is that possible?) But there is Harvey Dale who is not hard to please, he just wants a 1949 Cadillac. Good work if you can get it. If anyone ha s a Mon ster cat, would they please let Dick Brenan have it, 'cause that's what he wants to give to Cathy. (Gee, ain't love grand?) It seems that Cleo would like some relief help so that she could go to a show during the week with George. Then there are always those happy dreamers who want money or its equivalent. In this category we find Dick Smith, only a thousand dollars he wants, and John Davenport who will apprecic;~te a rubber stamp for dollar bills. And I think that this might be in the same department. Ardis Miles wants the answers to the final exams. (Who is kidding who?) Manuel Saenz and Jerry Mattson seem to have the right idea, for the want Peace and Quiet and that "Slow Boat to China" respectively. And if Santa nasn 't used up all pis gifts by this time, Marilyn Cook (leeds a larger mirror to see all of that new look tliat she is wearing these days. Norm Bucher's need is quite apparent, he needs more strength for those week-end parties of his. The other Norman of our school, Norman Kettering just asks for better attendance at the Frosh class meetings. And while Pearl Parker asks for a little white dog, Anita Ronay let it be known that she wants a pair of dark glasses to hide those fatally alluring brown eyes of hers. But after all these questions, I finally found one person who was satisfied. Barb ra John son has got her wish, she says. (Of course we all know that she means Bernie Pelsma). After talking to Old Saint Nick this morning I'm pleased to report that we'll all get something that we want anyway. So have good faith and take heart, and have a 'very happy Christmas.
Pavlow, being the subtle soul he is, readily perceived that Mildrew would accept a Christmas gift, when Miss Pabst cagily remarked. "Whatcha getting me for Christmas?" Pavlow knew somehow she was receptive. He considered th is the triumph of his romantic career, that he could be so in touch with hi s love's secret desires. "Ah, ha" he thought, "I shall surprise her and get her a gift!" . . And so, Dear Children, off went our hero to San D1ego one fa1r Saturday to further his quest. And there in _San Di7<?o he s+;ol_led l~i surely along the main drag absorbing the hol1day sp1nt. The t1m1d, Wintry sunshine caressed the sidewalks and building fronts glowing mellowly. He passed Santa's standing red and jolly, ringing their merry bells, calling a "Merry Christmas." Colored lights arced across the street ending in bursts of holly on light standards. "Yes," mused Pavlow, "What a delightful season." He was so overwhelmed with season he ceremoniously deposited a nickle in a Santa's pot. He spied a slack suit in a store window. "Very Pretty," thought Pavlow, "a nice pale colored, loose fitting garment with a pleasing feminine character. Mil would look good in +fiat." So he ventured in. Pavlow commented on the raiment to the matronly clerk. The clerk replied, "Yes, that is one of our finest line of pajamas." Whereup~n Pavlow caused a great gush of air getting through the door. Once aga1n upon the sidewalk he caused another as he leaned, shaking, against a SORRY GIRLS letter box. After cleaning his glasses several times and buttoning and The telescope would like to take unbuttoning his coat oftener, he eventually recovered enough to rethis opportunity to apologize for sume along the pavement. As the shadows stretched we find Pavlow omitting the names of Karen Helhomeward bound. "Surely," he thought, "I have made a great choice, one that' will always remind Mil of me." And he fondly patted the ler and Dorothy McDonald from the list of girls attending the A WS brightly wrapped package. conference held at Fullerton JC That night he presented his gift when he made his punctual Saton October 30, 1948.

WIJt1t's Been Htlppening? A Plf/y IJy Play Account I I TH WEEK OF SCHOOL With t he Fros h Da nce and the Homecom ing out of the way Palomar College students turned their attention to Thanksgiving and the long wee k-end ahead. The football game at Lancaster again st the An telope Va lley JC on Thursday wound up the season, but few rooters would travel that far when turkey and dressing awaited them at home. Helene Ruppe l's Howard Weaver played in the Escondido-Oceansid'l:l Alum ni game and that would keep her close by. Some of the students pl a nned to go to the desert. Mary and Josie Rubio were down a few wee ks ag o to Pal m Springs and were planning another trip soon. Lo is C ooper and Muriel Sutton also have been seeing the other side of the mountain. Nancy Maginnis was just back from a visit to Pauma Valley. Most of the boys were staying home over the three day holiday eng aged in the anc ient and honorable occupation of making a living. Herb Meyer, who gets up early enough every morning to irrigate and watch the new co met streak through the chill southeast sky is a good exa mple. Ray Gootgeld tended hi s father' s 6000 chickens. Bob Osborne pa ssed out the groceries at a local chain store. Jeannine Townsend was at her usual newspaper job of writing out the cla ssified ads. Rollin Ratl iff kept books for a certain Amanda P. Giannini. Andy Wikholm helped his Dad at house building. Ray Sandlin wa s practicing on his Messiah part. Ray will sing the baritone part of Handel 's Oratorio when it is presented in Escondido on December 12. The girls of Palomar were still drawing gla nces, and in variety of ways. Pretty blonde Norma O sman was sporting a red and white striped blouse that gl istened like a peppermint candy cane. Marjorie Ting was busy reading one of the late best sellers. Lois Wilson and Joan Watson didn't have to scramble for the lone, tattered blanket on the bus any more. Jim Marshall had a new heater installed that keeps the old icebox toasty warm. Dotibeth Huggans, who "just can't do a thing" with her naturally curly hair, was tying it with a ribbon these days. When we speak of interest in school activities we think about those constant supporters for the football team. Josie Rubio and Hazel McSauley a nd Marilyn Smith can always be counted on to be there when the whi stle blows for the kickoff. At the Citrus game in Azusa they were a bit late, though to no fault of their own. The bus in which they were going to the game caught fire at Corona. Students came pouring out windows and emergency exits as the leaky ga soline line caught fire. Quick application of the extinguisher brought the blaze under control, but it was two hours before the damage to the ignition could be repa ired. After the gang did get to the game some minutes after the kickoff, they found all the seats were taken on one side of the field. The other side- had no rooters at all, and the 35 Palomar rooters piled in only to be warned that tecmites had undermined the stand. So small_ a thing as termites dampened the spirits not at all. Karen Jones d1d bounce with too mu ch excitement over one touchdown and fall down a few flights of steps but this is considered the normal hazards of the game.
12TH WEEK OF SCHOOL The students of Palomar College came back to school last Monday after the Thanksgiving holiday bulging with good humor and turkey hash. The four day rest from studies was ju'st a breather before the stretch drive and the Christmas holidays. It was the opportunity janitor Luther Burt had been waiting for to really scrub out. Luther would find that the lounge was all shiny and bright after Helen Ruppel and Betty Johnson got through with it last Wednesday night. The two girls just "couldn't stand " the mess any longer and pitched in with broom and mop to leave it arranged and neat from their womanly touch. The football team wound up its second season with a faltering loss to Ante.lope Valley JC, 24-2. Said Coach Harper, "We just didn't have the fire this year and we had too many injuries." The la st act of the footballers after they turned in their uniforms was to elect End Clinton Smith honorary captain for the year. The blanket, given to the player voted most valuable by the team, went to Halfback Lee Anderson . Anderson was hurt in one of the late season games but sparked the team most of the season. The team also heard the results of their contest to pick winners of other football games. Harvey Dale by picking 57 winners out of a total of 72 games won two tickets, donated by Coach Hueston Harper, to the Notre Dame-SC game at the Coliseum. There were some new clothes around school this week too. Norma Johnson had a pair of red suede, two strap "scooters" she has been yearning for the past month. The girls had a tie tying session on the bus to add the la st touch to the wardrobe. The new windsor knot with its bulkiness appealed to many. There was the ascot, the four-in-hand, .and the plain old bow knot. Then, too, there was the neckerchief with the boy friend' s ring slipped up close to the neck to hold the kerchief in place. The other big news ~f the week was the marriage, Friday, of Dick Peterson and Pat Hummer of Vi sta. The couple will live close by the campus where Dick goes to school and Pat works as Veterans Administration representative. Gretchen Kline, another student, is also contemplating a trip down the aisle soon.
THIRTEENTH WEEK Thi s was the thirteenth week at Palomar College and only one week short of the Christma s Holidays. There are only two more weeks after the holidaysin this first semester. One celebration of the coming festivitie s was the Student Council dance, chairmaned by Jim Marshall and Tom Canady. The affair was semi-formal at the Woman's Clubhouse in San Marcos on Saturday night. Rex Phalen wa s there with his music. There were some students celebrating the coming holidays in other ways too. The front office had called for "flunk" slips on failing students and Dr. John L. Blair was having quiet little conferences in his office. There were more noses in more books in Mrs. Esther W. Nesbin's library too. As the year progressed the girls were keeping up with the headlines and down with their hemlines. Marilyn Smith was wearing a new brown check skirt that came to within I0 inches of the floor. Betty Johnson, Marilyn Cook, and Karen Heller were wearing them long as well. There are at least three mothers going to school at Palomar. One is Mrs. J. H. Crawford, who has a daughter in college in Oklahoma and one in EUHS. Anothe~ is music major Margaret Francis whose daughter Dorothy, is at Palomar as well, taking up teacher's training.

5 O'CLOCK SHADOW COLLEGE SIZE If most men hate to shave, why aren 't beards more popula r? Why are beards looked upon as bei ng rid ic ulou s nowadays ? It is a well known fact th at the more dreary part of a ma n's day is t hat period in the morn ing when he must get out of bed and face him self h e~d on in the mirro r. Th is can be most revo lting. Picture the creat ure who may have imagined him self so handsome the night before; he receives a mild jolt whe n a mirror pla ced in fron t of him reveals t ha t morning-after fa ce, ragged with whi skers and creased with wri nkles. Or picture the high-choo l boy who confronts the mirror for fo rry-fi ve minutes, deciding wh ethe r or not he needs a shave. If he does shave, he might be late. So he doesn "t , and ttheindecision as to whether he should have or shouldn 't ha ve bothers him no end until nightfall, when he can run and hid e his whiskers under the covers. The only reason that men go through t his torture every day is for the rid iculous rea son that they are, afraid to set a new style. Style is for the women, they sa y. My answer to this proble m is- more beards. Let your fa ce go, men! Dispense with this sill y ha bit of shaving . They say the world is going to pot, so you might as well let your fa ce go t o seed.

The Night After Christmas 'Twas the ni g ht after Christmas , and b<jly, what 9 house ! I fe lt 1i ke the devi l, and so did the spouse. The egg-nog and t urkey and candy were a li right But ten hours later they sure gave me fright. The stockings weren 't hung by the chimney with careThe th ings were sprawled on the back of a chair. Th e childre n we re nestled snug in their bed , But I had a large ca ke of ice on my head . And when, at last, I dozed off in a nap The ice woke me up when it fell in my lap. Then for some unknown reason I wanted a d rink, So I sta rted in feeling my way to the sink. I got along fine 'till I stepped on the cat, I don't recall just what occurred after that, When I came to, the house wa s flooded with light. Although under the table, I wa s high as a kite. Wh ile vi sions of sugar plums danced in my head I somehow got up and then ba ck to bed. Then what to my wandering mind should appear, But a miniature sleigh and eight tiny reindeer. Then the sleigh seemed to change to a red fire t ruck, And each reindeer turned into a bleary-eyed buck; I knew in a min ute it must be O ld NickI tried to cry out, but my tongue was too thick. Then t he old devi l whistled and shouted with glee, While each buck pawed t he earth and looked daggers at me. Then he ca ll ed them by name and the na mes made me shudder. When I heard them I fel t like a ship minus rudder. " Now Egg-Nog ! Bacardi ! Fo ur Roses ! and Brandy ! Now Fruit Cake! Cold Turkey ! Gin Rickey! and Cand y! To t he top of t he hou se to t he to p of his skull, Now whack away, crack away, with thumps that are du ll! Then in a twinkli ng I fel t on my roof The prancing and pawing of each cloven hoof. How long t his went on I'm sure I ca n't say Though it seemed an eternity, plus ·a long day. But fina lly t he night afte r Ch ristm as had passed.

Playing thei r first game of the curre nt bas ketball season the Comets dropped a 50 to 36 decision to an aggresive Orange Coast five. Coach Williamson's starting five ran neck and neck with 0-C for three quarters of the first half, bu t then 0-C got a five point lead and starting in the second half, began building on this margin until they were 14 points ahead of the Comets at the final whistle. Billy O'Neill took high point honors for the evening with I0 points to his credit. Norman Kettering and Bernie Pelsma showed up well at forwards, Clint Smith at center and Jack Clarno and Jim Hodges work very well together at the two guard positions.

The Comets took possession of the lead in the early minutes of the game and never let up until the final whistle. Billy O'Neill took high point honors for the second time in two games. Coach Williamson's starting five, Kettering, Pelsma, Smith, Hodges and Clarno looked much smoothe r than in the Orange Coast ga me, and showed that they were working toward a very successful season.

STUDENTS BURN ED UP OVER BLAZE
Wa nted! More Basketball Fans
An oil heater was the cause of a blaze Wednesday evening that swept through "the barracks", located in south Vista, in which seven college students have been living. None of the seven boys, was there at the time and no one was injured. The blaze be~an in the front of the building and swept through several rooms. Nearly half of the roof was destroyed. Left temporarily homeless were Jack Bowen, Bill Hansley, Ed Wiley, Jack Riesland, Lee Anderson, Don Blake and Floyd Goodell. The Telescope staff suspects that Jack Riesland, a staff member, may have been trying to stir up some news.
It was the first game of t he season, and the eager fa ns packed the first four rows of t he cente r section . The game was fas t and furious, with the ball t raveling back and forth so fast one got neck from watching it. To make a short story long, th e ga me was good, the boys rea lly made a good showing for only one week of practice, but, the fans t hat were eve n slightly interested comprised bu t a small number. Th ere we re only about seventy-five to a hundred there: of these there were about forty high school stude nts . This is a pathetic sit uat ion a nd should be correted. The tea ms are our representatives to show the other colleges just who a nd wh at we are, and we certain ly ca n't expect them to play top notc h ball without our moal support. Whe n they're out there on the co urt playing their heart's out for t hei r college, the least we ca n do is to be in the stands to show t hem that we're behind the m.

WANT TO EXERCISE AND RELAX? If any of you unsuspectin~ students have unwarily strolled out of the room which houses the pingpong tables, you have no doubt wondered if it is safe to look in. If you have your insurance paid up, itis. If not, enter at your own risk. For no good reason at all I stuck my head into this room just as Basilio Martinez was returning one of Jerry Mattson's famous serves, that accounts for this lump on my head. Of course everyone doesn't have such bad luck as I did, but then I'm strictly a chess man myself.
After recove ring from th e shoc k, I enduced Jerry to make a statement whic h follows. "I've found ping-pong a very relaxing ga me, in fact I'd recom mend it for anyone who is somewhat fast and mentally alert. It's a good ga me and a lot of fun, why don' t yo u come out and join in the festivities, some time?'' So I pass th is bit of interesting news on to you. Anyone who likes pin g-pong or pong-ping for left handed peop le, is urged to attend these little sessions continuing all day on Tuesdays and Thursdays. You d on't have to play t hat lo ng of course.
Breaki ng down under a heavy load of in juries, Palomar C ollege Thanksgiving Day dropped t heir last football game of the seaso n to Antelope Valley JC a.t Lancaster, 24-2. By moving linesmen Holland and Sheffer to the backfield , Coaches Hu eston Harper and Bub Williamson had hoped to bolst er the sagging Comets. Their efforts went for naught when the Antelopes took to the air and scored tw ice from passes . They also ra n one kickoff for a touchdown. Defensively the Comets more th an held their own. On one occasio n they pushed Antelope Valley back 15 yards and across their own goal line where guard Standerfer t ackled the Antelope Valley ba ll carrier for a 2-point safety. A nothe r time it took Antelope Valley fo ur downs to make 2 yards and thei r second touchdown. In fi rst downs and on defense t he Pa lomar t eam outgained th e Lancaste r boys most of the way. A 30 mile an hour wind held t he Comet's kicking and passi ng attack from getti.ng under way, but the rea l troub le lay in the a bsence of such men as Anderso n, Riesland, Maag, and Blake t o spe ll the combination of Dick Sm ith, Wade, Pe lsma and Saenz in their effo rts . Th e boys ce lebrated th e closing of t he second football seaso n at Palomar College with a big t urkey dinner in Lancaster afte r t he ga me and arrived home thinki ng a bout basketba ll practice d ue to sta rt t he fo llowing Monday.

Coach Harper Says-...... Football season is history now (what history?) and basketball season is under way. Next year's football schedule is practically complete, starting off with a practice game with Orange Coast at Palomar on Sept. 17. This will be followed by a game with San Diego State Frosh with welcome. We will also have· a return game on a t wo year contract. Our conference games will be with the same teams as last year except the place of playing will be reversed. Looking back over the football season again and discussing some of o ur problems, the thing that always comes up is the extent of our in juries this year. The insurance company tells us th9t San Diego State and Palomar sent t hroug h more claims for their student body size t han anyone else t hey had insured. In making their

s:udy of .+he cause t hey were particularly 1nterest ed in the fact t hat football players reported f o r p ractice at 12:30 each day at Palomar. Some of our injuries were undoubtedly the result of poor condition. Many of the athletes men tion the fact that they never did feel that they were in good condition. They fo und it diffic ul t to put much enthusiasm in their workouts after they had so recently eaten. Most of the at hletes worked and did not have an opportunity to eat before 12 o'clock. O n days when their meal was close t o p ractice or they ate more t ha n usual or the practice was extra strenuous they would notice t he after affects. Football is a game of spirit as well as phys ical q uality and good condition makes it poss ible to express both. Where the physical is able t he spirit is more willing. This was especially noticeable in games where some of the boys played who had not been able to keep in condition because of previo us inju ries . It was true in the case of Manuel Saenz, Hal Standefer, Ray Kerby, Bernie Pelsma and many others to mention but a few. It is hoped that next year's practice can be held at a more reasonab le t ime that would be p hysiologically sound. It was also unfortunate our game with N.T.C . put us o ut of commission in so many departments. Last year we had a two-year contract with them and our firs t game was good practice. Unfortunately the draft was instated during t he su mmer and as a res ult they screened 12,000 rec ru its t o ge t the ir t ea m. It will be a long t im e before we will schedule t hem again; alt houg h it is going to be difficu lt to find practice competition with t eams of our calibre.

Don Blake, Ray Kerby and Dick Smith each carried it over once for TD's. To sum it up, Saenz passed for a TD, AI Standefer made two on a safety, Riesland kicked three conversions and Sheffer kicked one. Punting is the one thing in which Palomar had it all over the opponents, t~anks to Dick Smith the boy who d1d most of the punting.

COMETS TRAMPLE TOWN TEAM Working like a well oi le d ma chine, Palomar's basketball team cut down a strong Fallbrook American Legion team last Thursday night fo the tune of 58 to 38. Playing heads up ball from the very firsr, the Comet's ball handling during the first half was excellent and at the end of twenty minutes of play, Paloma r held a 34 to 14 lead over Fallbrook. C lint Smith, Palomar's stalwart center, twisted his ankle early in the ga me and Coach Williamson switched Norman Kettering to center and put Billy O'NitJII in at forward.
