Wednesday s, Fridays at 9 A . M . By Dr. Phil Putnam The materialism of our con· temporary society has tended to pervert the Christmas season to a period of frenetic ·s ales promotion. Some cynic has stated that "Christmas is the most ingenious sales gimmick ever devised." We need not be accessories to this cor_rup±ion of t h e Christmas spirit. This· Christmas let us each bear in mind that we are commemorating the 1955th anniversary of the birth of Jesus Christ, the most -sacred event of the Christian World. Let each attend t h e church of his choice and take advantage of this opportunity to learn more about this humble Carpenter whose life and teachings have so profoundly influenced the civilization of the world for nineteen centuries. As we become more familiar with the philosophy of Christ and modern psychological research. we find that they are not in conflict but rather that through long and laborious research we only confirm those verities which Jesus knew intuitively. The core of the Christian ethic is found in the concept of love of our fellowman and forgiveness of his transgressions. It is my Christmas wish that each of us may find renewed spiritual vitality during the coming Christmas season.

Most c ollege students suffer occasional emotional insecurity; Dr. William E. Cameron, Univer· sity of Cincinnati assistant professor of sociology; declares in his paper on "Emotional Insecurity in College Students. " Further, there is no statistical correlation between - security and intelligence scores or between security and grades in college, Dr. Cameron said. Students' descriptions of their insecurity fell intc five general categories: intensified consciousness of self and situation; uncertainty and a p p r e h e nsiveness about situation; lack of
confidence in self; physical symptoms of tension and anxiety, and overall d iscomfort and conviction of probable inadequacy in future ·op e.rations . The most frequent cause of insecurity reported by the students was economic. D r . Cameron said economic insecur:ity might be considered a "normal" insecurity. According to his test results, additional sources of insecurity brought down the score. However, persons having some strong psychological support 'in one area of life t ended to score higher than those with the same insecurities and no corresponding support, Dr. Cameron found .
Yearly 'Workday' Gives PC Campus New Appearance· The campus took on several improvements at the annual "Work Day" last week along with several tired backs and aching muscles. The parking lot, the patio, fish pond, lounge and grounds took on a new appearance. The miniature Palomar dome was finally brought out to PJC from Escondido and given its first coat of paint. Headed by Butch Guepin, the sophomore class did a job on the fish pond. Vera Sosa and Peggy J o Huggins were seen hanging out the lounge windows cleaning them. Jim Gravatt along with his crew of girls, was cleaning out the weeds around the library. The sophomores also cleaned the patio and d ecorated the Christmas tree . The freshman project, redoing the parking lot, had everyone on the job. Under the direction of Mr. Stevens they were doing jobs from sweeping to painting .

Palo Verde May Drop Athletics Next'- Sept.
Two PC Alums Play .for UCR Basketball Five Two former Palomar basketball stars, Don Portis and Alan Chamberland, are now playing for the University of California at Riverside. Chamberland, a six foot-three inch center, hails from Vista. During the '54 season, Al was the first-string center for the points -for the year. Portis came to Palomar following his graduation from Escondido High School. While at E.1J.H.S., Don was a three year - letterman in football, basketball and baseball. He ma·de the AllMetro L eague in both football - and baseball in his senior year and was so outstanding in basketball that he made the AllMetro team for three straight years. His classmates named him the most outstanding athlete in his class. In his two years at Palomar Don had an equally fine athletic record. He made the all league team in football and baseball, and for two years he was named "to the South Central All-Star basketball team. Don scored a total of 559 points for two years here, which averaged out to a bout 13 points a game. This year at Riverside, Don has secured himself a spot in the starting lineup, and by doing this, he has beaten out two returning lettermen from last year team .

Prospects Are Bolstered By ~ Five Vet"erans Winning three of their first four games, the 1955-56 Palomar Comet basketball team looks as though it will have an excellent season, according to Coach Rusty Myers. Leading the five returning lettermen are Leon Hartley and Larry Tessary. Hartley contributed 269 points last season, while Tessary scored over 200. Both gained honorable mention in the all-league selections. Dave Dean, Bill Thurman, and Dale Cowan round out the remaining lettermen. Ron Ross, E U H S graduuate who transferred here after a year at San Diego State-, should prove to be a vital asset along with Harold Kries from Vista. Mike Goodbody, Al Kish, Dick Hughes, and Dean Luxa, all from· Escondido, have looked sharp in practice and should see lots of action. Other members of the new Comet squad are former San Deguitans Mike Fulton, Tom Kundinger and L ou Thornton. cEarl McClure of Vista and Buck McManigill from Fallbrook along with out-of-staters, Dick George, Dave Kendall, and Bob Reed , round out the Comet squad Sal Contreras from Grossmont will join the team as soon as he recovers from a football leg injury.

The time- has come again when we find one of the most exciting . seasons of the year coming to a close, and as we look back over the 1955 football season we feel that this has been different than past seasons. There have been what you might cali new fads. The season started off on the same note as any other season, with predictions of future All· Americans and guesses on what would be the top team in the nation, etc. And then came a new twist. The Effigy hangings. It started off with coaches and before the thing had died away they had everything from sports writers to governors hanging across the nation. · These are the things that make college life a not-so-boring task. Why, if it weren't for the "panty raids," "Effigy hangings," and many other such trifles, what V(Ould college students find to do? In one of the recent Palomar basketball games I notice that Palomar had only ·12 men suited of the game, and knowing that Coach Meyers had more men that his out for the sport, I decided to look into the subject more closely. It didn't take much digging to find the reason Palomar has only 12 uniforms.. I don't think this is entirely the fault of the administration. But I do think that if someone would bring the situation up before the administration. the problem could be solved very easily. As long as I'm griping I 'd like to bring up another problem. Mr. Crafts, the gounds supervisor, has been given the 0. K. to re-surface the track. Bu~... what the administration failed to do was to appropriate the money for a cement rim around the inside of the track to keep the new surface from being washed onto the football field. I am not alone in saying that to re-surface the track without this rim would be an absolute waste of school money. Coach Rusty Myers was met with a good turnout of basketball enthusiasts. Among them were returning letterman; Leon Hartley, Larry Tessary, Bill Thurman, and Dave Dean. Palomar has looked good in its opening game, but before I gave any predictions I would like to see the team a few more times, so in our next issue you will find the predictions of the coming South-Central Conference basketball season .
