Palomar A Good School, But Rating Rumor Wrong Editor's note: A rumor that Palomar's rating is superior in relation to that of other junior colleges has been investigated by the Telescope. The findings are as follows: Palomar College is not rated as the second-best two-year college in California. Nor is it rated first, third, or at any other level by an official college rating body. The Western College Association accrediting team came to Palomar last fall and made a thorough inquiry into all aspects of this school. The result was a five-year accreditation, the longest accreditation term possible. This does not, however, catalog Palomar in any rating of college excellence. What it does mean is that the team found conditions here good enough to allow us five years of operation without another inspection. The Western College Association is recognized nationally as one of six regional accrediting agencies which cover the nation. The accreditation of colleges is required every five years or less depending upon the number of years the school has been accredited. Accreditation teams, which are- appointed for each school, review the aims and purposes, curriculum, instruction, student personnel and administration against standards set by the association. This involves the careful study of all aspects of campus life including the library, business office, classes and student activities. Teams are made up of mstructors and administrators from all fields represented in insti-
New Rep. at Large Ron Colton has been appointed to the position of Representative at Large, a post vacated recently when Clayton Sketoe became ASB Publicity Director. Colton was appointed by ASB President John Diepersloot. The appointment was confirmed by the Executive Council Monday. Due to a typographical error in the last Telescope, an impression was left that Diepersloot would uot appoint a new representative. The statement should have read "will now appoint."
Leaders Conference Plans are under consideration by the Executive Council for a second-semester leadership conference simi lar to that held late last sum mer at Camp Cuyamaca. Possible locatio ns for the conference site are now being investigated and a deCISIOn is expected soon. Palomar Mountain and the San Bernardino Mountains have been suggested as pos¡ sib le signs.
tutions of higher learning. They are appointed by the association to review a specific school. These perodic reviews serve to improve schools as well as help them maintain adequate academic standards. A five-year accreditation does help Palomar's unofficial standing, as does the transfer program which indicates that 70 per cent of Palomar graduates go on to four year schools. Follow-up studies, as yet incomplete, indicate that Palomar graduates do better in upper division work than students who spend all four years at the larger college or university. In addition, palomar graduates at San Diego State have a total grade average of 2.5 compared to an average of 2.1 for other students. Other schools have similar records but the number of Palomar graduates involved is termed insufficient to draw a significant conclusion. Upper division colleges do, generally, accept more units from Palomar transfers than from graduates of other junior colleges. An evaluation of the grade distribution in all junior colleges of. the state, which is being undertaken at present, may fur:ther indicate Palomar's unofficial rating among schools.
Constitution Elections Set Today El~ctions are being held today for the approval of the new Sophomore and Freshman Class constitutions. The constitutions were completely renovated in certain respects but were left unchanged in others, said Clayton Sketoe, publicity director. Representative at Large Bob Bosley is in charge of the election. Voting tables will be in front of the cafeteria and the library. The polls were to open at 8 a.m. today and will close at 3:30 p.m. today. Copies of the old and new constitutions will be available at the polls so that the students may better understand the changes that have been made. The new constitutions, before being brought before the classes as a whole, were rev iewed by the Judicial Committee and approved by the A.S.B. Executive Council.

College Poll Indicates Local Voting Response by
Glenn Duncan Citizens in the Palomar College district have a good voti ng record, according to a poll conducted recently by students from Mrs. Jane U. Ervin's political science classes. Four hundred and sixty of 521 California residents contacted at random were registered voters, and 433 of these had voted in the last national election. Three hundred and eight had voted in their last local election. "Either the people in this area are afraid to admit that they have not voted," said Mrs. Ervin, "or they are really concerned with government." Results of the poll also indicated that Republicans and Democrats share a balance of power in this area (there were 200 Democrats, 292 Republicans and 29 Independents among the residents polled) and that a majority of the people are not fickled to their party (only one third of the residents contacted had ever changed their party preference).
Dean Announces Proposal for Housing Rules
Regulations governing the living conditions for minors who Jive away from home and attend Palomar are being considered by Dean of Student Personnel Terrel Spencer, it was learned in an interview last week. If approved by Dr. John W. Approximately 100 students Dunn, College president, the participated in the polling, said regulations will be submitted Mrs. Ervin. "They wore official to the College governing board Palomar College polling badges in an attempt to have them inand were received very well ." cluded in school policy, Dr. The educational purpose of Spencer said. Tentative plans call for perthe poll, according to Mrs. Eriodical inspection of the minors, living quarters to make sure that conditions are sanitary and that not more than two persons are living together, said Dr. Spencer. "Group living by minor students can develop into hazardous situations which reflect on the college," he said.

Clubs Collecting Food For Mexican Christmas A small Mexican farming village will be receiving Christmas gifts from Palomar Coll ege stud e nts this year. Under the d irection of Circle K, all clubs on campus will be contributing food to help make Christmas brighter for our international friends. A Fallbrook physics teacher, Mr. Alvin Brereton, brought the news of the hardships of the village to Circle K. Because of

" Some of the excuses offered by contacts who had not voted in recent elections were: "I was mad at my wife." "I'm not interested in politics." "I don't like either party." "I am disgusted with our foreign relations." "There is no need for me to vote--everyone else is."
Music will be provided by the band of Buster Carlson, who plays at the Cotillion Club and for the San Diego Chargers. His band consists of 10 men and a girl vocalist. Students may submit to the Sophomore Executive Council the names of numbers they would like to hear, said Mike Mueller, Sophomore Class vice president. The band will play arrangements coordinated with the theme of "Misty," Mueller said. The price of bids is $1 for ASB card holders and $2 for noncard holders and can be obtained in front of the Student Union during student activity hour, Mueller said. At the door, all bids will be $2. Plans include decorating the ballroom to give the effect of dancing on clouds, said Mueller. "Along the west side of the ballroom there are sliding glass doors which will be opened for patio dancing beside the pool and there will be beverage bar open for those who wish to buy soft drinks. "J oily old Saint nick will be giving out Christmas presents and there will be an unusual act that few persons have seen before. This year's Christmas formal promises to be the most fabulous formal in the history of our college," Mueller said. Photographers will be on hand all evening to photograph couples who want pictures as mementos. The price of color photos is $3.50, and that includes two 3lh x 5's an.:. two wallet-sized. Black and whites are $2.50 which includes two 5 x 7's and four wallet sized. Terry McHenry was elected Decorations Committee Chairman in a Sophomore Class meeting on November 23. Any sophomore wishing to be added to the committee is urged to contact Terry, Mueller said.
Humanities
Restaurateur,
Author Will Lecture Here Author and world traveler George M. Mardikian will speak here Dec. 13 on "The World Today" humanities lecture series, Dean Catherine M. Jones has announced . Mr. Mardikian's topic will be "Song of America ," which also is the title of his published book. He is the owner of the Omar Khayyam Restaurant in San Francisco. Dean Jones said that he came to America as an immigrant and first worked as a bus boy.
Candidates' Petitions Available For Second Semester Elections Candidates' _petitions for offices in the second semester ASB elections will be available in the ASB room December 11. Petitions must be filed by December 15. Campaigns will be carried out January 2 to 5 with campaign speeches at an assemb ly January 8. The election will be on January 10. In connection with other housing developments, Dr. Spencer said that a plan by local investors to build apartments close to Palomar College for students has apparently fallen through.

ASB Cards
Purchase Compulsory? The question of compulsory student body cards has been argued here and on other campuses with the general conclusion that all students should have them and that it is the responsibility of the administration and stud.ent government to achieve this goal by means they deem appropriate. This attitude can be attributed to the wording of state law and the desire of junior colleges in general to be recognized on the same plane of higher learning as a University or other four year school. First, the law does not, in effect, al ow a junior college to make ASB card purchases compulsory. This is because a free secondary education is guaranteed by constitutional rights and the junior college is presently considered a member of the secondary school system. consequently the ASB is not guaranteed an income from tuition payments, rs is the case in most institutions of higher learning and is dependent on whatever it can scrounge up in order to present an activities program. At a state student Government conference recently a resolution opposing the practice of making the purchase of ASB cards appear mandatory was defeated 21 to 2, which echoed the student leaders' opinion of the importance of a n adequate activities program. Until the junior college is recognized as a school of higher education and until tuition is charged, it appears that circumstances will continue to require all possible means to be used in the sale of ASB cards. This condition inferes additional responsibility for the administration and student government in determining the value and extent of the ·activity programs.
About The Letters The Telescope has been criticized by some students for printing letters which are submitted to this paper by students who wish to address the ASB. The critics feel that some . of these letters are too hastily written, are overly generalized and have no real purpose except to create a disturbance. We are not concerned with whether or not these letters are worthy of the student bo<;ly's attention. We aim, in printing the letters, only to supply the
student body with opmion and comment other than our own. Being the major outlet for news and editorial comment at Palomar, the Telescope has a responsibility to insure students here the right to express their opinion on campus matters. We do not solicit letters. But we try to print whatever letters are submitted to us because we feel that it is not our prerogative to suppress the opinion of any student.
Source Of A Rumor Source of the rumor on Palomar's rating has filtered down to the Telescope from the Dean of Student Personnel Dr. Terrel Spencer. It seems that when an interested serviceman, about to leave the service, asks an information and education officer about possible schools to attend, the officer produces an official looking notebook which lists numerous schools. Palomar College is apparently third on this list which has erroneously been taken as an evaluation of the state's junior colleges.
A Letter To End Letters Fellow Students, Palomar College is a state owned university and it is just one of many universities throughout our nation. It does not make tradition. It merely lives and teaches, the same as any other university in our country. Palomar is recognized as one of the finest junior colleges in the country and realizing this fact we must assume that iPs school paper could find a bit more news to fill it's pages with. Our paper lately has become more of a gossip column than a newspaper. It seems to have become a matchmaker and a cupid for "crepe-paper romances" and a term paper on the lives and ceremonies of the African tribes. Palomar college is holding several events that are more or less strictly tradition, it is true, but so is every other school that we know of. As for dear old Oxford, that writer has never seen the Britains at a soccer game, this is obvious. We have yet to offer any constructive critiscism, merely to tear down anything and everything in our school. These articles have gone from factual to sarcastic to downright nasty. I suggest that we do away with the lo11g winded letters. I would be willing to openly, publicly and, if it's what you want, heatedly discuss and debate these problems with anyone on this campus. Let's get these things into the open and see what can be done about them before our school paper becomes ·a rebutal column and nothing· · more. Anyone wishing to participate in this discu ssion is urged to place a note in my box in the journalism room. State what you think the problem is and when would be the best time for you to discuss this problem . Give our newspaperbacktothenews.

The Peace Corps Vs. Communism Dear Editor:
Student Speaks Out Against 11 Put Downs 11 Editor: I have a few words to say about a well-discussed topic on campus- "school spirit."
For that LoveLy party dress stop in at
It is my opimon that any student who has enough spirit to participate and work hard at any school function should be encouraged for this because he is trying to improve our school. I do not believe he should be belittled for trying to do this. I believe those students who belittle others should very much consider transferring to some lower-class school that specializes in " put-down contests" and not in school improvement.
Mike Mueller Editor's note: It appears to us that Mr. Mueller subscribes to a practice he condemns and apparently accuses the Telescope of subscribing to that practice also. CHURCHILL &~ASSOU

America, in planning its foreign policy, has a great responsibility in keeping peac e and political balance in the world at the present tim e. American policy-makers must understand the grave situations in the world arid must recognize this country's involvement in the entire, complex political and economic situation of the world today. The history of U.S. foreign policy since World War II has seldom seen an organization such as the Peace Corps, which supports America's role as a helper of other nations. The Peace Corps hasn't a great budget. A person who volunteers for service with this organization must know that he will almost "give" two years of his life to the people who are asking for help. These countries deserve to be helped for the benefit of humanity. Our participation will show to the world how much Americans are really interested in helping other nations, especially when it becomes widely known across the globe that a Peace Corps volunteer will receive little pay for his services, which often involves hard physical and mental labor. I believe that the Peace Corps' activities will reduce or stop the movement of Communist thought among Nations. The Peach Corps' actions are a logical way of challenging Marxism, since poverty is the main base for Communist propaganda.
A Cookie Sale? Editor: We reconsider how important football is and how it has achieved its undeserved significance (perhaps through the majority's influence). We should also re-examine our tastes in pleasure. We ask what school spirit and support are. Should not the two feelings grow naturally from an enjoyment of personal interests and attitudes being fulfilled by any college institution or group. These feelings would be superficial if attached to "should. " Homecoming buttons were sold on moral claims - to raise scholarship funds. Under the same guise there is a cookie sale sponsored by AGS (the club with the highest gradepoint average). Can't we take enough time to present some-
thing of benefit and originality from all this energy being exhumed and potential lying dormant (as stimulating lectures - or even readings would have been and still could be). Jim Papke

Tickets Help Hold Parking Problem Down The Palomar parking problem has been lessened since tickets began to be issued, according to Don Prough, member of the Judicial Committee. the only serious problem remammg seems to be that students are still parking in teachers reserved spots. This situation cannot be rectified, says Prough , until we are able to procure stickers to distinguish the teachers' cars from the students'. Dean Jones says that reserved sections must be respected as such by the students. "Teachers are complaining vehemently about the situation and it is up to the students to alleviate it.,
Some students argue that there should not be reserved spots for teachers. Some of our teachers are only here three days a week and therefore their spaces are left vacant the remaining two days. Until the situation is rectified, however, students are reminded that if tickets are not paid, transcripts and grades will be held up by the school. All students who feel they have been wrongly issued a ticket are urged to appear before the Judicial Committee. The Judicial Committee has five members issuing parking tickets now.
that college students should take a definite stand in the fight for freedom. He said that, if our country is to maintain its freedom, we must become individually independent, strong, and courageous; we must incorporate the characteristic~ of the symbol of America - the eagle. Alpha Gamma Sigma officers for this semester are Perry Snyder, President; Steve Sharp, Vice President; Nancy Elliot, Secretary; Victoria Kite, Treasurer; and Vivian Wight, Publicity. For membership in ¡ this honors club, a student must have a grade point average of 3.0. The Faculty Christmas Tea, sponsored by A WS, will take place in the Student Union December 14.
Arts Program Planned For March Show A group of Palomar students is planning to present a pro. gram of the various art expressions on campus in early March, reports Jim Papke, vice president of the Art Guild. Music, drama and dance students will be auditioned for the program. Student painting, photography, sculpture, ceramics and graphic arts must be submitted by March 1. The goal is primarily to stimulate those who create to develop their art expressions so that we may partake in the cross pollination of ideas and impressions. More information for students interested in submiting work or in helping with sets and decorations will be available in the book store and library.
ART SHOWCASE SELECTION Palomar students may enter works in any visual arts media in the Art Showcase which is on display for two week . periods in the Library. Selection for the next Showcase will be at an open meeting of the Art Guild on Thursday, December?, inFa-3.

~----------SPORTSPOST You may recall my account of Mr. Harlon Bartlett's (Escondido Times-Advocate) comments on Coach "Stu" Carter. Bartlett accused Carter of employing pain-killer in order to keep half-back Gary Schultz in a game. I interviewed Bartlett by phone and printed his equivo<:al defense of his statement, opposite firm denials by team physician Dr. Keith collins, and Coach Carter. Dr. Collins said that Bartlett's article was "a gross lie." Prior to the Palomar-Southwestern game I had never met Bartlett in person; I had just arrived for that game when an obviously angry man approached me and asked if I was the sports editor of the Palomar paper.
"Yes." "Well , I'm Harlon Bartlett. Does that mean any- _ thing to you?" Frankly, I did recall the name, But, from here my new acquaintance jumped into a series of comments about my comments; most of which aren't the type you print in a newspaper.
"What was your purpose in printing that article?" "Just a statement of facts." It was; my Telescope article had merely quoted the persons involved. I couldn't help it if Bartlett had nothing to say. Actually, I had been more objective than I wished to be. It was obvious that Bartlett didn't have a leg to stand on. when asked where he got his information he had said , "Someone told me." This is hardly sound ground for a news story. He also had advised that I " ... just forget about the whole thing." I told him that I didn't think I could. this was quite too m u ch for m e. I couldn't stomach a man's levying unfounded accusations at anyone. If he didn't like the Palom ar coaching staff he cou ld have said so; that was his right.

Some of the hopes for the week end games include cocaptains Boyd Galland , forward , and Mike Williams, guard ; both are lettermen from last year. Another Comet hopeful · is big Ted Repa , forward, from San Dieguito, a newcomer to the local cagers. Other lettermen, returning from the 1960-61 squad , include Bill Gordon, George Hartfiel , and Bill Dunn.
