Bond Issue Passage Means New Facilities Replacement of Barracks, New lab Space, All Hoped For in October 8 Bond Election The planning of specific classrooms and laboratories, together with the addition to the testingcounseling department and enlargement of the library at Palomar College, has been carefully based on the college's "immediate" needs for basic instructional facilities, Palomar officials said yesterday.
Impressed With Caliber Of Students At Palomar College 路 Mrs. Marjorie Wallace, new Dean of Student Activities at Palomar, comes to us from San Diego State College. Mrs. Wallace has been studying in the field of administration since the beginning of her school life. After receiving her A.A. Degree from Fullerton Junior College, she went to the University of Southern California, where she majored in Public Administration and minored in Psychology. In 1945 she received her B.S. Degree. In 1953 she came to San Diego State to fill the position as Coordinator of Veterans' Affairs at the Personnel Services Center. Four years later she became Assistant to Dean of Activities, and in 1960 she earned her M.A. Degree in the field of Education with special emphasis in Student Personnel and Guidance. Mrs. Wallace remained at San Diego State for 10 years. Mrs . Wallace is an accomplished pianist and organist. Her interests include swimming, music , and her three children, Joanne, 17, Alfred, 14, and Jeri Ann, 13. She adds, "I hope Joanne will be able .to attend Palomar next year." Mrs. Wallace is very enthusiastic about Palomar's campus and program. She states, "I am very impressed with the caliber of students at Palomar. I had a good opportunity to get acquainted with some of the students at the leadership conference, and I think it got the program off to a good start."

Howard R. Brubeck, head of the music department of Palomar College, has been reelected vice president of the non-profit San Diego Youth Orchestra Associatioa. The project was founded seven years ago to provide early training for prospective future symphony musicians, and Brubeck has been active in the work of the organization since its start. More than 40 young musicians who received early training and encouragement from the Association have "graduated" to the San Diego Symphony Orchestra. Conductor of the Symphony is Larry Christianson, a former student of Brubeck's and now head of the music department of Mt. Miguel High School in Lemon Grove. His father is Clarence Christianson of the Escondido High School faculty. "The president of the Youth Orchestra Association is Crandall Condra, San Diego attorney.

Palomar Trustees Urge High Vote In Bond Election Palomar College trustees Tuesday appealed to "every forward-looking citizen in the district and especially parents of students" to assist in obtaining a "creditable" vote turnout at the college construction bond election Oct. 8. Trustees said loss of a similar election by 127 votes last March stemmed from the district population 's failure to muster a representative vote on the issue which was marked by light balloting. Only 9,224 cast ballots, out of 32,740 registered voters. TWO-THIRDS NEEDED

They described in detail the exact building components of a proposed $2.550 million construction project which would be financed with passage of a bond issue awaiting the verdict of district voters in an election Oct. 8. The college board of trustees, headed by Morse Olmstead, Escondido banker, pointed out that the present enrollment of about 1,700 compares with less than 1,000 in 1960, and that "it will surely pass the 2,000-mark by next fall ."

FOR FACULTY AND STUDENTS
pangs of hunger ... and growing pains by Tom Gable
The title of this column is self-explanatory as to the contents. It is a way of expressing the way I feel at times and also might bother you.
It is not meant to be pedantic, nor too pseudo- philosophical. It is more of an open fo rum on ideas and questions that I find popping up time and time again. It is going to run the gamut of tone from priggish to funny, depending on the ideas I get, or are told to me.
The first column submitted , it appeared in the two-page registration issue, was based on the paradoxical question "Why?". It was answered by the typically evading answer of "Because". It all stemmed from a legendary logic exam given at UCLA four or five years ago.
A ONE-WORD FINAL? It was a class of seniors, with maybe one or two exceptions, and it was Spring finals. The professor of Logic walked through the class handing out the mimeographed test to each student. On the sheet of paper he distributed, there appeared just one word. "Why?"
Naturally the class was stunned, having studied for weeks in preparation, because tl!ey had expected a ten page list of premises and conclusions to week through on existentialism. M:>st of thein finally got to work, after the initial shock had worn off, and were writing at a
furious pace. All except one gentleman who sat in the back of the room.
He looked at the ceiling; a few of the girls in the room, the prof, the word, and finally picked up his pen to write. He wrote his name , the date, course number, ahd instructor across the top of the page and then, in answer to the oneword exam, he too wrote just one word. He wrote "Because".
A 1-WORD ANSWER?
He walked to the front of the room and placed the paper down in front of the professor. The professor looked up from the book he had been reading, clanced at the student's one-word an swer, and then smiled. With a red pencil he made a very large "A" on the top of the paper and pushed it back across the desk to the student. "Why?", a moot question in itself, had been answered by "Because", equally moot.
The student had a sense of humor, so had the prof for that matter, and they had met on common ground . The student had played it entirely by ear, playing a hunch, and that's exactly what I am going to be doing the rest of the semester. I have already asked the question, just one, and received no answer, I will keep trying, playing it by ear, and putting my foot in it.
A Newspaper Is Interest A school newspaper is published by and for the students of the school it represents. In 路 other words, the school newspaper doesn't just belong to the journalism class, it belongs to you. A college newspaper, any newspaper for that matter, can only be as good as the support it receives. If it is treated apathetically and with general disdain, it will never imporve and never fuction as it should. If, however, there is student interest in it, it will 路flourish and grow and improve. Criticism is what we want, along with any praise that can be offered, and we want ideas from the students in order that we may know what is wanted. We want what you want. We publish to cater to the student, and the faculty, and invite comments from both. If there are no complaints, there are no improvements. But if we get bundles of letters from offended and irritated readers , we can look introspectively at things and maybe have our pride hurt enough to do something about it. We like to think of ourselves as a good newspaper, newsy, interesting, and even funny sometimes. We are learning as we go along, a trial and error basis, but
that is not enough. We learn by doing but that is slow. We can learn faster by being told. When you read this issue, or any other one, look for errors or any story or column that doesn't strike you as being right, and tell us. Send us a letter or, better yet, mark it on the newspaper itself and bring it to us. If there is something in particular that you like, and would care to see more of, tell us about that too. We believe that an interest in the paper will lead to an interest in the school. We believe that, because the student newspaper chronicles the activities and advertises the functions, the student will know and maybe participate. We believe that an interest in elections can be generated through early stories and detailed reports on the functions of the various offices. We don't want a school election where, like last year, ninety percent of the candidates are unopposed and the vote turnout is equally apathetic. Write to us about the news, about the columns, about sports, about activities, about errors. Tell us what you want and we will see what we can do, even if all we get are irate letters.

the lower half .... By SUE PURDY
"Trade a three unit class for one unit? Never!" seems to have been the attitude of previous freshmen at Palomar.
As the frosh go to the polls next Monday to elect the new freshman class president, further proof of the e nergy of the class of '65 is evidenced.
Tom "Chip" Harrison, a premed major, is emphatic in his conviction that it is time for a wholesal e weeding out of deadwood in student government. "I want to revitalize the office of freshman class president," this tall Vistan says.
A graduate of Fallbrook High School, Lydia Loudermilk is a political science major. She supports in every way Dr. Grisingher's belief that women are far from being the weaker sex.
David Roldness, a transfer from Pierce J.C. in Canoga Park, is rapidly becoming a familiar face on our campus. An engineering major, he has been heard expressing his eagerness to show the A.S.B. the many qualities of the freshman class.
The South has risen again in Bob Mullins. A pre-med major from Alabama, his ambition is to gain recognition for his class.
The freshmen comprise nearly two-thirds of the total student body this year. As such, they have a powerful voice which should be heard. Speak out!

Mathes a 1:57.2 half-miler in prep school worked out only once prior to the meet. The remainder of Mathews team-mates finished back in the pack accounting for .. the lopsided score. However, recent rains had hindered the Comets' efforts to get in shape. Other Palomar finishers were Tom Van Zandt (15:40), Bill Schiffer ( 1 5: 59), Ron Graf ( 16: 19), Tom Saxe ( 17: 04), Fred Boyer (17:04), Bill Donahue (18:37), Randy Borchardt (18:39) and Tom Phillips (21 :04).
The Comets will be idle until October 3 when they will travel to Camp Pendleton to compete in the annual Camp Pendleton Invitational. Riverside City College offer Palomar's next duel meet competition on October 8 over the local course.

At present, football and cross country share the spotlight. Coach Chris Pagakis' football team opened the campaign with a 20-14 victory over, Ventura College and has eight games n imaining this season. Approximately 30 players compose the Comet squad. Cecl McGeehee and Bob Bowman are assisting Pagakis. The cross country team is still open to those interested in competing for Coach Joe Brennan's harriers. The Comets run their home meets on a 3.3 mile course and have eight meets left. Basketball, Palomar's most successful sport, begins in October when Coach Brennan begins the initial workouts. Palomar cage teams are known throughout the state and have dominated the South Central Conference in recent years. Last year Palomar advanced

to the state meet before losing to San Francisco City Colllege at Sacramento. Wrestling will also be offered at Palomar with Coach Pagakis handling the Comet grapplers. Pa lomar will compete in several mat tourneys as well as the regular dual meets. Baseball and track head the spring sports agenda at Palomar. The Comets have always fielded winning baseball teams and many positions will be wide open when workouts begin in January. Ward (Rusty) Meyers handles the baseball team as well as serving as athletic director. On the track front, Palomar figures to field a fine team . Track requires a large number of participants and athletes are always in demand. Coaches Brennan and McGeehee will handle the tracksters. Golf, a traditional Palomar strong point, is also offered in the spring. Coach Bowman is in charge of the Palomar golfers who last year was on one of the state's finest teams.
All CIF Man Joins Team Palomar College's football stock rose with th e news tha t Pe te Schoute n , 192 pound end from Escondido, ha s tran sfe rre d to Pal oma r from th e Unive rsity of Arizona.

Layton, Rosenthal Sparkle On Vista Gridiron

College Of The Desert Next In Line Saturday At Fallbrook Field by CHARLES HOADLEY
Palomar College, a 20-14 victor over Ventura College, will try to make it two in a row Saturday night when the Comets play hapless College of the Desert on the Fallbrook High School gridiron. 'Coach Chris Pagakis' Palomar team will rule a prohibitive favorite over the undermanned Palm Desert school despite a somewhat ragged performance against Ventura. A fine crowd of 3,000 fans turned out at the Vista High School stadium to see Palomar turn away lightly regarded Ve ntura . The Pirates could manage just 35 yards rushing against a rugged Comet defensive line. After Palomar had fumbled away a scoring opportunity on the Pirates' three yard line early in the game, Wayne Bell finally put the Comets on the scoreboard on a five yard pass from Rick Rosenthal in the second period. Palomar had set up the score when a high pass from the Ventura center sailed over the kicker in a punt attempt and the Comets gained possession deep in the visitors' territory. Seconds later, a Ventura fumble fell into Comet hands and Palomar was in business again. A fine run by Art Fisher moved the ball close to the Pirate end zone to set up the second score. Rosenthal rolled out on a fourth down play, ran 15 yards to the Ventura goal line and fumbled the ball but Wayne Layton recovered the ball in the end zone for the touchdown. Rosenthal 's pass for the conversion failed, leaving Palomar with a 12-0 lead at intermission. Palomar went ahead 20-0 early in the third quarter when Layton, a brilliant performer all night, scampered 25 yards to touchdown land on a reverse play. Rosenthal completed a pass to Dave Price for a two point conversion to complete the evening's scoring for Palomar. Comet generosity put Ventura back in the running during a short span in the third period when Palomar made two costly mistakes. Ventura halfback, Chuck Baker, zipped through the confused Palomar defense on an obvious pass play and hauled down a 57 yard scoring strike from Galen Ohlirch. Jim Meeks successfuly swept right end on the conversion try to cut Palomar's lead to 20-8. It took the insp ired visitors just 10 seconds to score again as Meeks picked off a stray Comet pitchout and galloped 40 yards to score. Pete Schouten nailed Meeks on the conversion try and the swift Ventura back was unable to cross the line. The rest of the game was marred by fumbles , dropped passes and a muddy field and neither team mounted a serious threat. Ventura's Ohlirch, a dangerous passer, tried desperately to pull the game out of the fire but just didn't have the receivers. Although the Comets gave up the ball three times on fumbles and the Palomar blocking left much to be desired, the Palomar defense led by Schouten, J erry Shelton, Gary Agatep and Alex Valkoff packed plenty of punch. If the offense can match the performances of the defensive players, the Comets merit serious consideration in the upcoming South Central Conference race.
