oard Approves Pions Of New Palomar CampUS On Feb. 23, the Palomar College school board approved with slight revision the site plans for the renovation of the college campus-to take place within perhaps 15 years. The . replacement of the present science, library, and shower and locker bulidings, in addition to the con .. struction of the general shop building is scheduled for the initial reconstruction period. This is to be only the first of several such accommodations as foreseen by Dr. Putnam and the members of the board. Palomar College's

BULLETIN Palomar Rated Tops As we went to press Thur"Sday night, Dr. Putnam received word the Palomar College students ranked far above other junior college students at the University of California last year. The average junior college transferee made a 1.25 grade point average, while former Palomar s t u d e n t s attending UC averaged l.74-a remarkable B minus average!

board members, with one eye on the currently up-coming building program , are peering compre. hensively even into what is proba. bly the ultimate stage of this school's major growth period. In an interview, Dr. Putnam dis· cussed plans for building to accommodate 1200 students. Even after the first step, cor· roborated by approval of the recent bond issue, resemblance of the new campus to the present campus will be disminished signi. fic~ntly. The new science building will occupy approximately 10,000 square feet of space and will stretch 170 feet from end to end. The structure will actually contain two buildings joined end to end under the same r oof; a covered . walk will separate the buildings. One of the two buildings will house the chemistry facilities, and in the other building will be physics and life science facilities. Our new library, Dr. Putnam believes, will be the most beautif ul building on campus when contractors have completed executing the plans of noted Califo rnia architects P adere.wski, Mitchell, and Dean. According to Dr. Putnam the building's beauty, is not mere showiness . . It is the expert· ness in planning and space utilization of Mr. Paderewski that gives it a wholly practical attractive· ness. The new library will have stack room enough for 28,800 volumes, as compared to the stock in our present library of about 11,000 books. H owever, Dr. ·Putnam has pointed out that at first the new library will contain little over the present stock of books requiring the use of only one tier of book· cases with a slight overflow in a second tier. The old books will be kept in one tier of new book cases, and the overflow will be put in J;he book cases now in u se. When t his tier becomes full, a new tier will be put in its place and the old one will remain in the library until th ~ third and last tier is nearly full and subsequently replaced. One of t he newer ideas featured in the library are carrels or cu biles for individual research· and study. In addition the reading room .for 72 students, one audioroom, audio-visual room, two reference rooms, and a foyer with soft furniture and various display cases are planned t o go into the allotted floor space. "There will be no excuse for not studying," asserted Dr. Putnam. "Both the library and science buildings are built with elasticity in mind," he explained. Each should take care of an enrollment (Continued on Page Two)

Small Colleges Haverford, Pa. Calling for upholding academic standards in the face of increasing enrollment, Dr. Gilbert F. White, president of Haverford College, recently recommende~ more small colleges in more communities instead of enlarging existing institutions, Dr. White, who is also the newly elected president of the Pennsylvania Foundation for Independent Colleges, stated in his annual report that Ha¥erford has taken the position that despite the anticipated "tidal wave" of students the best Quaker college can best. serve the interest of education by staying small. "Some colleges feel that · they have a public responsibility to expand their facilities as best they can. Our position is that we may be of greatest service in the long run by not so expanding. To expand would clearly, but to undetermined degree, detract from the quality of our present work," President White concludes.

Comet BasebaU Prospect Good, SOys Coach MyerS

~ortsScOOp By George Cordry A few weeks ago, Palomar Coll ege, along with four other South Central Conference schools, voted t o admit Santa Barbara JC into t Le loop. Santa Barb~ra's memb ersh ip as a SoCentral represent ative goes into effect at the beg inlring of the 1955-56 basketball cason. Palomar, Citrus, Antelope ValIcy and Palo Verde voted in the a ffirma tive during the loop meeth g. which was held at Oceanside, ·. :1ile Imperial Valley cast the ot1ly negative ballot. This writer W\Jnders. if Imperial, the doormat of the SoCentral for the past two oe three years, wasn't the onfy .c:chool that u sed sound reasoning l: :::hind it's decision. I m p erial Valley S :mta Barbara was too great a d istance away from other loop members and traveling arrangeJ •l~ nts would be exceedingly diff icult. We are forced to agree com pletely with this phase of the i ·sue. The teams located in the I mperial Valley region, IV and P alo Verde, would lose valuable t ime from school by being on t he toad for the long trek north'ard. -....., The move to invite S anta Barinto the COI}ference must alo be labeled economically unS'Jund for t:Qost of the SoCentral schools, especially Palomar , which o •,erate on a stnall budget bee use of the great expense inv olved in traveling to and from uch a distant school. Another factor to consider is the • . he of Santa Barbara compared , ., ith South Central Conference members. The Vaquero's will no doubt be exceptionally strong in .all loop sports, altho they will not p articipate in football next season, because their enrollment exceeds that of any of other conieL·ence members. With the addition of Santa Barara. the conference membership swells to seven teams. This means t rat each week one squad in the l oop will d raw a bye while the six others duel one another; that means a headache when it comes t o drawing up a schedule. Imper.i al Valley has already refused to 1 ;eet the Vaquero's at any time i 11 football, which adds further w oes to loop uniformity. Perhaps it's a bit early to judge t 1e action of the South Central Conference school upon the addi t ion of a new member, but I can't help feeling that the representatives were a bit hasty in t elr decision to accept Santa BarLara's application. Only time and a great deal of patience w ill tell. One solution to the problem w ;:,uld be the addition of another school of limited enrollment to t h e conference. This would bala n ce the league and also alleviate t .1e scheduling and transpo ·tation d illiculties.

Comet baseball coach Ward (Rusty) Myers expressed a great deal of satisfaction with the 1955 Palomar horsehide prospects after the PJC nine split a pair of opening tilts last week. The Comets inaugurated the season with a 2-1 victory over Escondido High School and dropped a tight

4-3 decision to a powerful Santa Ana team later in the week. . Myers has his entire pitching staff consisting of Monte Green, Geo;ge Cordry and Ed Moja~o, back from last year, along w1th promising newcomer Dave Dean. Cordry was the top Comet pitcher for Palomar in 1954 with four wins and an excellent earned run average, while Green was not far behind and shows continued, imp.ovement on the mound.

Lettermen Green at first, Mo jado at third, and Don Portis at shortstop bolster the solid Comet infield. Duan e - Beebe, another letterman, and Larry Tessary back up Green at first base. Second base has been a threeway battle between Bob Hedrick, L eigh Hansen and Tom Collins. Hedrick seems to hold the inside track at the keystone sack, due largely to his superior hitting ability. The starting PJC outfield is exceptionally fast with Karl Geise in left, Leon Hartley in center, and Ed Redmond in right.
