Mock Election Proposed For PJC Campus The possibility of holding a mock presidential election on the campus was discussed Wednesday, January 29th, by the sponsors of the two political clubs on campus. George B. Toll, economics instructor, and Roy A. Archer, political science instructor, sponsor the Young Republicans and the Young Democrats. Officers of the clubs also attended the meeting. Toll, - mentor of the Young Republicans, stated that the election will be held to give the students on campus an interest in the politics which govern their lives. He stated further that in the process of participating in the election, the student will gain experience i'n casting his ballot wisely. Archer, the leader of the Young Democrats, said that the election will be run exactly like the national presidential contest, complete with registering, primaries and final voting. Archer stated conservatively that Lyndon B. Johnson will be the leading candidate for the Democratic Party. Toll anticipates greater activity in the Republican primary, with candidates ranging from Nelson Rockefeller to Barry Goldwater, and including the fairer sex represented by Margaret Chase Smith. "It will be very interesting to see the outcome of this mock election as opposed to the national presidential election later this year," stated Mr. Archer.

EACH ONE - TEACH ONE
Illiteracy Condemned In Laubach Lecture "Everywhere everyone· agrees that literacy comes first. You can't do much to help people help themselves if they can't read and write. Literacy is the key to world peace and plenty. With the vast world disintegrating in Asia and Africa - we all ought to be in a hurry. Time is running out - that's why I'm in a hurry," stated Dr. Frank Laubach, originator of the "Each-One-Teach-One" literacy method. WHAT EACH-ONE-TEACH-ONE ISN'T Nearly everybody has heard about the "Each-One-TeachOne" idea in education. But most people have a rather vague picture of what it is. "One man introduced me to an audience by telling them I had invented over 250 new languages. I told, the audience that if that were true I ought to be shot. Another man in introducing me said that I had invented 250 new alphabets. That would be even worse." WHAT EACH-ONE-TEACH-ONE IS Each-One-Teach-One is an easy way to TEACH ILLITERATES TO READ their own language. For the past twenty-five years Laubach has worked with educators in ninety-five countries to perfect textbooks that could be taught by any villager,
even though he himself can barely read. "All he needs to do is to smile and follow the line. The book does the rest," said Laubach. Dr. Laubach's missionary work brought him in contact with the Moro people on Mindanao Island. Setting out to break the language barrier which stood between him and the people, he first learned to speak Maranaw, their primitive language. It had never been put into writing. Dr. Laubach found the language had only 16 letter sounds. He developed symbols for syllables, based on sketches of familiar objects. This was the first version of the picture-word . charts which are the basis of the Laubach literacy method. As the people learned to read and write, they were enlisted as volunteers to teach others. This was the beginning of Dr. Lauback's slogan, "Each-One-TeaehOne." "I feel confident of one thing. If we are to change the direction of the world, and save it from its present tailspin to disaster, many, many more of us must take the whole world into our hearts and begin to work for the welfare of mankind," concluded Dr. Laubach.

FRITIZ IN WONDERLAND
Whatever Happened To My Frittz Schnipple? By Kenn Cutter Spring semesters are notoriously eventful. Just ask a fall semester notable like Governor George Wallace. There seems to be a certain unknown factor that causes the February to June stretch to be just chucked full of interesting little happenstances. On the first day of the new semester as I was attempting to sneak across the off-Daytona speedway, the parking lot, one of these events forced itself upon me. I was nearly run down by a teen Parnelli Jones who seemed to be testing the capability of the spring of his Volkswagen. I say nearly because I was able to lunge from the path of this junior maniac to a place of temporary security, the runningboard of a 1935 Essex. Regaining my sensibility I rubbed my monoxide induced, tear-filled eyes and peered into the Essex. There right before me was my long lost boyhood chum - Frittz Schnipple. Just like that. Frittz and I exchanged initial pleasantries and then went in search of a campus coffee shop (one that serves real coffee) where we could renew old times, etcetera. Two hours later we found one in Escondido. Seventeen years ago Frittz and I began our education together at a truly conservative little nursery school across the street from Goldwater's department store in Phoenix. There we were soon recognized as the kings of the short pants and sandals set. Of course, that was before the day of symbolic dress and the waxed knees look. Through the years our friendship was perpetuated as we continually found ourselves bumping into one another at seven or eight different schools across the country. Sounds like the Marine Hymn, doesn't it? Despite an unsteady family background (four mothers, five fathers, one alcoholic governess, and a basset hound with an over-abundant manic depressive) Frittz grew up like any other normal child prodigy. He graduated from high school at age fourteen and then went on to Harvard. Unfortunately, he was dismissed five days after enrollment for some type of conduct that was "unbecoming." Frittz has come a long way since being dismissed from Harvard. Following the Horace Greeley dictum he went west and for the last four years he has been touring the Southland's fine JC circuit. Amazingly enough Frittz was right here at Palomar for the fall semester. Our paths failed to cross because he spent the entire semester in the library, a place that I seldom frequent. Frittz's Essex is running on only two cylinders. Therefore, he was unable to transfer south to Grossmont JC for the spring. Now he is extremely irritated because he will have to spend another semester trying to study in the Palomar library. Frittz has always been one to study in libraries. There is some old myth that says that libraries are quiet places, sometimes even secluded. Not the Palomar library, says Frittz. Affectionately he calls it "the fishbowl." With a few more windows it could pass for a prism. The main study area, it seems, is right in the center of the fishbowl. Its floors are acoustically finer than the walls of Carnegie Hall. If you are able to fight your way through the kind of semi-jungle that flourishes there you -are instantly on the runway at Radio City Music Hall. Frittz is such an interesting looking character that some students are never able to return to the act of looking like they are studying. Then there are those cute little cubicles in the southeast corner of the library. Frittz calls them "game" rooms, probably because the only time that he tried to sneak into one he was hit in the eye by an airborne pack of matches. I do hope that everyone here at Palomar will have an opportunity to meet Frittz Schnipple this semester. He is really a very fine fellow. Despite what the SPCA and the Humane Society may say Frittz loves all dogs and "cats." The Telescope is the official publication of the Associated Students of Palomar .

The national tournament, during the week of April 6-11, draws the top JC teams from throughout the United States. Besides their pilgrimage to Okie country, this semester's team, one of the most experienced teams in recent years, will represent Palomar at Long Beach State College three times and once each at San Fernando Valley College, Bakersfield, and Whittier. The first tournament of the semester is the Junior College all events tournament at Long Beach State on the 28th and 29th of this month. The following weekend at San Fernando Valley Palomar will compete in one of the toughest debate tournaments on the west coast. It is the "Spring debate championships," which draws such four year schools as Stanford, Redlands, BYU, USC, and UCLA. Palomar will be one of the few JCs represented . CHAMPIONSHIP HOPES
After a weeks rest the team travels to Bakersfield on March 20th and 21st for the State Junior College championships. Here Palomar will be attempting to regain its state debate title won two years ago. After the return from Easter vacation , Whittier College hosts a novice tournament which will be attended by the people eligible for novice classification. The Whittier tournament is on the 4th of April and early Sunday the 5th, the team starts t he ten day
trip back to Oklahoma for t he big tourname nt of the year. After returning the 14th there is a two day rest before they hit the road again , this time for the individual Championships at Long Beach State. · The final competition for the semester will be ·t he state discussion tourney at Long Beach State on May 8th. Here again the team will be attempting to regain their state title which they won two years ago. And with this tournament they will end a two month schedule of contests against the top competition in the United States. FAMILIAR FACES RETURN
This semester's team includes the following people returning from last semester: Leo Burns of Cardiff, Nick Kremer from San Marcos, Cheryl Plank and Pat Ford of Vista. Returning from last years squad are Randy Young, Vista, Becky Baker, Escondido, and J . C. Wesley from Escondido. One new member of the team is Denis Puscas from Encinitas, a transfer from Oceanside-Carlsbad JC. Last semester the squad attended tournaments at San Diego State, Los Angeles State, and Santa Barbara, plus hosting Palomar's annual high school speech tournament. There were no major victories but several students did very well and the rest gained needed experience which should prove to be beneficial this spring. Both the team and the coaches, Mr. Tabor and Mr. Hayden, are hoping to bring back several large, gold , championship trophies from the spring tour.

Comet Squad Clicks To Win Three Of Last Four The Palomar Comet basketball squad seems to have found the winning combination as they defeated three out of four of their last opponents. The first of the Comet victories came when Palomar defeated a tough San Diego State Frosh team 66-38. JimGray made his first good showing since he had his appendix out by dropping 10 points into the bucket. Blair Smith was high point man for the team with 11, while Fred Boyer put in nine. The Comets rolled up a 34-25 halftime advantage, and then allowed San Diego State only 13 points in the second half while the Comets scored 32. The Comets' second victory was their first South Central Conference win, as Palomar defeated Imperial Valley 71-60. Jim Gray continued to improve as he scored 22 points. However he wasn't high point man as Roy Sanchez oflmperial Valley made 27. Two other Comet players scored in double figures. They were Blair Smith with 18 and Fred Boyer with 16. At halftime the game was still up for grabs as the Comets led 36-34. But in the second half Coach Brennan and crew outscored Imperial Valley by 11 points. The Comets continued their

vide parking attendants for both performances. FINAL PLANS DECIDED Plans for the Hootenanny took on final form at a meeting of college delegates January 7th. Tom Preston, chairman in charge of the Hoot arrangements, presented possibilities and arrangements to the delegates. Critical issues, including financial arrangements and contracts, were settled. Prior to this meeting, each college had put up one hundred dollars front money to be used for advance arrangements and preliminary planning. Palomar suggested the Hootenanny, but SC will co-ordinate the affair. Each Area I school may submit names of one or two folk groups from their school. The groups will audition February 12th. The purpose of this hootenanny is to increase the public image of junior colleges in our area. Proceeds will go back to each college to be used specifically for scholarship funds and educational p•uposes, according to Southwestern College.
winn ing streak as they defeated College of the Desert in a hardfought 61-58 contest. The struggle was close all the way as the Comets led by only two points, 34-32, at halftime, and outscored COD by only one point in the second half. Fred Boyer took high point honors with 15, and Jim Gray · was close behind with 14. January 25 the Comet eager; suffered their first setback in four outings when they were defeated 83-59 by the San Diego Marines. Only one Comet scored in double figures and that was Blair Smith with 14. The referees were kept busy as a total of 51 fouls were called. Still, with all the fouls no one from the Palomar team was ejected from the game because of them. At intermission the score was 39-24 in favor of M.C.R.D., and the Marine squad was in control of the rest of the game. The high point man of the game was an M.C.R.D. player named Ben Hunter. Hunter scored 21 points, 11 of them by free throws. sec Standings Antelope Valley Santa Barbara Oceanside-Carlsbad Palomar Imperial Valley
