What Is It?

Functioning with a large group of veteran jqui·nalism students plus an ample turnout of newcomers, The Five Cents Telescope staff headed by advisor Angelo S. Villa began the new semester under full steam. Appointed to hold the position of editor-in-chief to replace retiring editor, Bennie Wade, was Ronald T. Kenney of Fallbrook.

Knights Meet to Admit Seven New Members

Holding their eighth meeting since the organization of the club, the Palomar Knights met January 31 on the hard wood bleachers next to the old book store to discuss enlargement of the membership. Discussing the eligibility of prospective members, the Knights placed seven men on probation to be admitted at the next meeting. They include Art Hayes, Bucky Cole, Ed Hogue, Chuck Purtee, Dick Nelson, Travis Bagwell and Dan Huff. F ebruary 11 was set aside by the men of chivalry as a day to be devoted by the organization to work on the prospective baseball diamond at San Marcos. At that time the group headed by prexy Ed Johnson will r esume their wood-chopping chores beThe Palomar Players' surrealism dance will feature many weird, fantastic, grotesque, and superhuman cr~':'res such as gun a month ago.

V eteran News Stude.nt Editor Kenney, outstanding studen,t in last semester's class is a freshman at Palomar and graduate .of Ch,affey Union high school where he was sports editor of the Chaffey United Press.

H e wa·s almost a unanimous choice f the class. Supporting Kenney on the staff will be A.S.B. president Norman K ettering in the role of news editor. Dorothy McDonald, who by her hustling sales of advertising kept the paper from going deep into the r ed will act as feature editor while continuing her old position as advertising head in an advisory capacity.

Wiley H eads Sports Second highest in the output of news copy during the fall semester, athletic Ed Wiley proved himself as capable a newshawk with an output of 132 inches of copy, and earned the position of sports editor. H e will be backed up by assista nt A I Southworth.

Herman seemed to be lost with()Ut the other half of the Citrus All tournament team, Pete Peterson. The score was tied at 37-37, again at 40-40 from where the -comets moved out to cinch their win. Don Madden of Citrus -was high point man for the game with 19 points. Palomar was led by Ray Garcia with 15. Garcia's high point total put him ahead of Duane Boyle as the leading Comet scores.

Baseball Team Starts Practice Defending champions, the Palomar Comet baseball team began practice last week with high expectations and a good chance of retaining the title.

Palomar Cont1·ols Boards For the first time this year Palomar's squad was able to eontrol the backboards, Norman Kettering·, Ed Johnson and Dick Nelson repeatedly took the ball away from the Citrus men. Saturday night the Comets .moved to Lancaster to play the Maurauder five. Antelope Valley who wa s out to avenge a ten point drubbing absorbed at the h ands of P alomar earlier in the season started early and kept going throughout the game. The ma r o·in of vict ory was made at the free t hrow line as Antelope hit f or 22 charity tosses whil e th e Comets missed 12 to 25. D uane Boyle led the Comet scorers by chalking up 16 points from tliP center spot.

Sharpshooting Azusan Cage Squad Gains Revenge Routs Locals 51-22

Cagers Off to Blythe, El Centro For Final Trip

Traveling to Blythe and El Centro on consecutive nights, the Comet cagers embark on their second and last road trip of the current hoop season. Friday night, the locals face the league leading Palo Verde Pirates in hopes of making a better showing than the last game in which the Pirates cooled the Comets 78-26. With the addition of a few new members to the squad, the team expects to fare somewhat better although they still have to cope with Big George Nicholson, conference leading scorer, and speedy Rudy Castro, the dribbling wizard. Saturday morning after the Pirate contest, Palomar leaves for another game that evening with the cellar-dwelling Central Arabs. Being hard to beat on their own court, the Arabs will be seeking revenge for the 58-53 loss which the Comets handed them in the conference tournament. Like Palomar, El Centro upset a favored Citrus team, so it should be anybody 's contest. Ray Garcia, C o m e t forward and Wally Hunt, high scoring Arab guard should battle it out for high point honors. Both are the leading point- getters for their respective sqnads. With the first round of league play completed, Palo Verde is leading the conference with five wins and no losses with Palomar tied for third and El Centro dwelling in th e cellar.

forced to withdraw from school at the semester. The return of Pete Peterson restored the general balance and teamwork of the Citrus squad, Peterson was doubly useful with his tip-in shots and settling influence on the Owl's floor play. Don Herman again looked as he did in the Oceanside Tournament, consistently making set shots from the corner of the court to take high point honors for the evening with 12. During the first half the Citrus scoring was well divided with three players scoring four points each. In the second half Peterson, Herman and Windy Nichols were able to hit more often than their teammates and walk off with the scoring honors. The Comets were forced to play without the services of Duane Boyle lost to the team through scholastic difficulties. To offset this loss the basketeers have added ball hawking Fred Ashley and Bob Ponton a definite asset due to his backboard work. Ray Garcia continuing his scoring edge led the Comets by putting in five points. Ronnie Kenney and Dick Nelson continued to trail Garcia by putting in four points apiece. Palomar's quintet, usually accurate with their foul shots made only 10 while attempting 21. The Owls fell even further down in this respect by hitting only nine charity tosses and missing 18.
