VACATION ISSUE

MESSAGE FROM DEAN 8ABCOCK Last September, when we began the school year amid the clatter of construction and swirls of wind-driven dust and a confusion of trenches for water-pipes, I wrote to you of my hones that you would hecome members of a real community of friends here at Palomar. It seems to me that the hope ha s heen rPalized. We have seen thin gs become more settled. Although it is obvious that· there is still a campus to build, and we are all aware that our college must still p-row--offerin[! rnore to future classes as fast as money and energy are available-•I hope you have -a sense, as I do, of the advances that have been made in nine months. If you do agree with ~ e, in this 1 I think it is hecause vou have estal.,lished 'tnnds with the~working proup which is the real Palomar College. You members of the.praduating class may he conscious of such hands already; and if you are not so conscious perhaps you will become so, as you think back over the two years durinP.' :t"rhich yo u h a ve participated in Palo m ar's p: rowth. You who will return next September, to advance your own careers and to witness - another year (Cont. on na?e 4)

PRESIDENT HILDRETH CONGRATULATES PIONEERS Many years from · now as· w e think of this year, 1950-51, we will think of the pioneers df Palomar College. No one who has had any contact with Palomar during this year will ev r~r forge t some o: the conditions u n d e r which the college was carried on ~ There were -those first few days in which reg is t ration of students was completed in bu i ldings without windows and without soors. The students will · remember the dust of the campus, ankle deep, of the consistency of talcum powder which fluffed ·i nto the air ~ith every step of the foot; the clangi&g of sh o v e 1 s, t he whine of tle sawa and the sharp crack of the hammers as the workmen went about their work. irJater had iust been hrour·ht to t h e campus., ·but wa .s hardly available for personal use; sanitation facilities were not yet completed; and everyone wondered w h ether education could possible be gin on the 26th of September. Pioneering has been done this year in fields other t han work on the campus. Yes, it was a struggle to sit hour after h o u r in cilassrooms where the heat of the fields was chok ing, and wh ~e later the mud was deep and the roofs leaked& · Those thin ~ s requlred courage, but probably in an even greater way thin ~ s which had to do w:i.th morale r equi red even more courage. Scores an d scores of students had to answer (Cont. on pa ~ e 4)

REVIEW

The Music department of Falomar College offered partie ipa tion and study in many diversified fields during the pa.st year. The Band played at all home games, helping to stimulate student spirit by playing music dur~ ing thE game, and performing durin g half time period. A thirty piece marching unit was featured, and thos e participating worked ha rd in order to have tho ir group perform vte 11. The Band represented F·alomar College to more than one million people by playing in tho Santa Claus Lane Parade in Los Angeles and in the Little Rose Bowl Game in Fasadena. A s e venty-five piece marching unit was forme~ by 1nvitin~· · t~e seniors of the high schools in the district to participate. All those that participated enjoyed thomse lves and gave a performance that was a credit to their school. The A Cappella Choir performed at the school Christmas Program, and for many community organizat ions. Their singing was well ~s c e iv e d everywhere they appeared, and their new robes, given to t he m by the Falomar Patrons t-.o l pe d thorn mako a fine appeare , '] C€. They sang With the comb in ed CollGge , H-1gh School, and ;:,., hurch Choirs of Northern San Dieg o County under the direction of the eminent choral authority Noble Cain, and after Easter Vacati on, appeared with the ·Dance Band g iving a variety show to the Es c ondido Kiwanis Club that was on tbusiastically received.

Th is clinic was enjoyed both by t he teachers attending, and by tho County Board of Education that o nthusia~tically praised its ac(; c1lplishments. (cont. next column)

to the interest arous od in the teachers attending, cours E will be given this summer at Palomar that will be dir c ctl ~r helpful to the person who is teaching and to those stud on ~s who are studying to bee orne t ea c ho rE The entire departmGnt took a field trip to H:bllywood in ord. or to study professional rehear sa l . techniques.
