ASB Council Will Select Palomar Queen Candidates One of the queen candidates from the Area I schools will receive the title of "Miss Junior College Coed 1963-64" after being selected on the "Sundown" show of KOGO television March 18th. Council members are to make lists of possible candidates from this school. At a special meeting Monday the council will select five girls from the names submitted. Steve Hinthorne, ASB president, will contact Tom Preston, Area I Hoot chairman, to get the qualifications for girls entering the contest. The student body will then have a general election in which the students will choose the girl to represent Palomar. Each candidate's name must be in by the 21st of February. Two folk singing groups are
Four Editors Appointed Orlando Heads Telescope Frank Orlando. Vincent Streano, Diane Lichtenberger, and Mrs. Esther Whitt have been appointed to head the various student publications of Palomar. The new editors were appointed during a meeting of the Publications Board last week. Orlando, who occupied the post of Managing Editor last semester was voted in by the Board. When asked what his main objective will be as Editor in Chief of the Telescope he said, "I want to try to attack the problem df apathy on this campus. I say try, because it's hard to attack an enemy as elusive as apathy. A great many Junior Colleges are faced with this problem year after year. The student publications try to arouse interest in the school by printing a few editorials condemning the student body for their passive attitude. The only thing that the student publications ever accomplish with this strategy is the anomosity of the student body who, sick of lectures, quit reading the paper." Vincent Streano became the Sports Editor after being unanimously voted in by the Board. Streano worked as the assistant sports editor under Charles Hoadley during .the fall semester. A change from the usual procedure resulted in the division of the editorship of the student magazine, Focus, into two asso-

to be sent to San Diego by February 12th. Terry Schwaner will make contacts with Palomar hoot participants, Paul Gethardt and the Vista Travelers, to see if they are interested in performing. The groups to perform will be chosen in Russ Auditorium. The eight groups chosen will then appear on the "Sundown" show at various times following their selection. The ASB Council 's Installation Banquet, held at the Quail's Inn, was attended by most old and new council members. President John W. Dunn spoke to the members on their responsibilities to the student body. Steve Hinthorne informed the council that the next Area I Student Government Conference will be held at San Diego City College on April Fourth. Thirty delegates, including all council members, are to attend from Area I school.
Political Clubs To Hold Primary Mock Elections All Full-Time Students At Palomar College Are Invited To Participate All full time students of Palomar will have a chance to cast a vote for the candidate of their choice in the mock elections to be conducted by the Young Democrats and the Young Republicans starting with a general primary February 13 and 15. The campus political clubs hope that this mock Presidential election will help to develop a sense of political awareness among the student body. The election will acquaint the students with the political ideas and the personalities that will make n_e ws in the coming national elections. Both groups are asking for some indications as to which presidential candidates the students will support. The mock election Will be broken down into three major steps. The first step will entail nominating candidates for the primary election. The ballot to be used in the determination of each party's primary candidates (see page three). Students will vote for their choice in the Student Union Thursday and Friday. The polls will be open from 10 a.m. until 1 p.m. The Young Democrats and Young Republicans will collect the ballots and tabulate the results which will be made public upon completion. The students can then form organized groups in support of the various candidates nominated. These groups can actively support their candidates with speeches, campaign material, and any other legal means available. To be nominated and placed on their party's primary ballot, the candidates must receive 5% of the total votes cast in their respective parties in the first vote. Additional unmarked ballots are to be made available by the two clubs. When a person registers, he must give his name and party affiliation. Another reason for requiring the name and ASB card of the student is to prevent ballot stuffing. The result of the Nomination Election will appear in the February 18 issue of Telescope. The clubs hope that there will be

ACT Tests At Palomar For Transfer The American College Testing Program and Scholastic Aptitude test are now prerequisites for entrance into most of the colleges throughout the nation. All State colleges in California require the A.C.T. Palomar is the administrator of the A.C.T. in Northern San_ Diego County, and was assigned the number0366. The A.C.T. is given in fOUI:----' parts: Verbal, numerical , science, and social science. There will be four grades given, one for each test and a composite score. The grading will be done against a norm from colleges in the nation. This test will be given in February, April, June, and November; in the Student Union. Two basic parts constitute the S.A.T. The verbal and numerical test, given in the morning and fourteen achievement tests to be given in the afternoon. January, March, May, August, and December are the months when this test will be available to Palomar Students. Any person interested may pick up a student's booklet and application from the Student Personnel Department. Norrine G. Gearheart will give any information one may require. Students must be sure that their application is mailed to A.C.T. or Educational Testing Service one month prior to taking the tests with the fees, four dollars for the A.C.T. and five dollars for the S.A.T.
Intellectual Theme Stated As Aim Of Newman Club
Lincoln 1 S Education A Constant Symbol Of American Energies Finding the self-educated self-made man in the United States today is limited to Who's Who and History books. This man is a man of the past and is destined to stay there. One hundred fifty years ago tomorrow, our most famous selfmade man was born - Abraham Lincoln. The story of Lincoln's humble birth, his self-education and rise to the unquestioned leadership of the union is an epic of the self-made man. This country honors him as it honors few of its political leaders. But the era of the self-made man is gone. It has passed. No matter how the imagination might work, today is here. And
By Karl Johnson
today the conditions are not right for the self-made man to evolve. AVAILABILITY OF EDUCATION
The poorest public education available in the United States today is better than any Lincoln might have expected to receive. Today public schools are universally available to the average student. For Lincoln there were no public schools. While Lincoln had to work for books, there are now more books than we could hope to read. The present-day student's time is his own, but Lincoln had to work to survive. Our education is served to us, Lincoln had to seek his. The self-educated self-made 1.
man has been and is a symbol of the United States and the type of country it is. The quality of the educational system of today has surpassed the image of the self-made man as the indicator of our country's progress. The self-made man may be the product of his time, but it is the man not the time that made him. Lincoln was strong both mentally and physically; he worked for what he got. As success took a strong man to do what Lincoln did, it takes a strong man now. Even though the path is easier with free education and almost unlimited opportunities open to anyone willing to take advantage of them, few have risen to the heights of Abraham Lincoln.

Nick Kremer took over the meeting at that time and introduced Father Patrick O'Connor OFM, who is a teacher at San Luis Rey College. Fr. Patrick, who is also the sponsor of the Newman At Palomar, then gave a short talk about the club. He stated that during the Newman Club Convention at Idyllwild this last fall, the statistics showed that Newman At Palomar had one of the highest attendance rates of all tl:te iuiJior colleges in California. He further stated that, "The Newman At Palomar is a religious and intellectual club designed to provide stimulating rather than social activities." This semester they have a highly qualifie.Ji speaker for each meeting to speak on assorted topics of interest to all college students. The next one will be on "A New Look At Philosophy" by Fr.

THE TELESCOPE
DONNA ROSEN SAYS:
Re·sponsibilities of Driving Are Taken Too Casually The struggle to exist leads us to enjoy a fulfilled and enriched life. It doesn't particularly matter whether one is born in the lap of luxury or the province of poverty, we all struggle. THE STRUGGLE OF LIFE
From the struggle of lea"ving the womb of one's mother to the struggle of taking that first step and uttering that first sound that resembles a word, to the struggle of attending that first day of school. All facets of life are a battle. Even if nature has provided the preliminary pattern for us to follow, we still must alter and mold our existence. These steps are hard, yet we proceed with anticipation and optimism to reach our goals, needs, and desires. What pitiful and tragic attitude we take toward life itself. This attitude of carelessness and nonchalance has ended the lives of three Palomar College students in the past six months. IS LIFE TAKEN FOR GRANTED
It is very simple to think that God has given us a lease on life. If one wants to go through life believing this, often he does not go through much life. Life is not one joyous happy episode of occurrences, yet beneath every unhappy exper~ence lies a lesson for a better future. Do not take for granted .t his wonderful and beautiful world, which we are privileged to be a part. Every day of our lives we are aware of Communism taking over new territory, yet do we Americans fear Communism as it should be feared? We are told by very important and influential agencies that smoking causes lung cancer,
one of life's greatest killers. Yet how many of us are willing to give up smoking? SLOW DOWN AND LIVE
Very rarely do we travel down bur freeways and highways without seeing an automobile accident. We shake our heads for a few minutes, make some sounds of anguish, slow down, at least till traffic clears, and then we proceed at full speed. What has to be done to prove to us that there is no guarantee on life? If we have faith in God, we should realize that He makes no settlements. I say appreciate this life we are given. Do not go through life in a haphazard fury. Those of us who are born with a normal mind, eyes to see beauty, ears to listen to facts which our minds determine, legs to walk on, and arms to work with, are actually a minority group compared to those who suffer mental and physical handicaps.
STUDENT COMMENTARY
Why Doesn 1t It Rain In California?
LIFE AGAINST DEATH
Just" to be alive is wonderful. Man has provided for man a complex, ever growing world to live Ein. Scientific studies have given us luxuries and conveniences that no other society has ever had. Every day we live, so"mething new is discovered or invented to make life more enjoyable. Among visits to a doctor, eating the proper foods, getting enough sleep, and the many other precautions some of us take to maintain good health, lies a need for fear of a utopian cure. Therefore why go through this struggle and battle of exi stance that leads to a wonderful life if our foolish whims can and do destroy it all? Ask yourselves this question often.
FRITIZ IN WONDERLAND
Home Is Where? By Kenn Cutte·r
Be it ever so humble Frittz Schnipple may lose his home. Needless to say he is a bit disturbed at the prospect. Part of the problem evolves from the fact that Frittz's place of residence is not of the average suburban variety, but rather a quiet, inexpensive three room flat in Vista (that serene little "city" where everything happens sooner or later). Frittz lives alone and because of certain events which have transpired recently he has a definite problem.
WILL YOU BE THIS LUCKY NEXT TIME?
"noisy" set is not very CIVIC minded. Their affairs have been known to drive an entire community mad (NBC should have such coverage). When a few of the "noisy" are caught on the firing line because one of their more quiet escapades has drawn out the local law enforcement agencies, they invariably have but one statement to make - "But we're students." The police don't know what to do (excuse us, Broderick Crawford.) They would hate to lock up the leaders of tomorrow. Summarily east meets west, the goodhearted law and a soon perplexed administration. Result: one community college administration is forced to deal with a major big.university problemapproved housing. The real pity of the whole situation is that the "noisy" set has done a magnificent job of complicating private residence for those students who may have a better sense of propriety and volume. In many cases fifteen dollars is proving to be a poor initial requirement for higher education. Good luck, Frittz Schnipple, wherever you are.
It's winter in Southern California. A disappointing time. The grass is green and not much different than any other time of the year. In the more sensible parts of the country the grass is decently clothed in a thin sheet of snow. Flowers grow the same, not as fast in winter, but they grow all the same. Orange trees with their guardian smudge pots share the same neuter climate as evergreen trees. All God's plants got life.

The wind is colder than it has any right to be in the morning, and persists despite the brightness of the sun. In the afternoon, it drops off to a mere reminder and subtly returns in the evening. The wind like everything else is not overly moist, or dry. Just damp enough to encourage a cold, but dry enough to restrict it to an irritating part of existence. In the late afternoon and the early
evening, the coldness of the wind sneaks up and catches the foolish people with their short-sleeved shirts. They shiver, and, remembering that they are in Southern California, make their way to a warm car or building.
Night is clear and a wishywashy chill settles, and makes lights brighter and cars shinier than they really are. The wind is stronger but still lacking its potential savagery. Street lights vie with swift headlights for illuminating honors and triumph when the dual rays flee the dark battlefield before the contestants are judged and thereby lose by default. In the distance squealing tires and snarling automobile engines intrude on the Stygian darkness. A dog barks and is answered by the ominous growl of a jet plane. The silence of
night returns. A three quarter moon dangles low in the sky unable to lift itself into the company of the stars. The demure stars, exposing little of their brilliance, and nothing of their infinitesimal heat, gape down at the ebony earth.
Stucco houses fortified by razor shadows born of street lamps and roofs lie menacingly across carelessly kept lawns. Inside the houses, people asleep, snore and breathe through their mouth with an impassive rhythm . Those who are not awake, · are hypnotized in the living room by a square box that glows at them to the accompaniment of regulated noise. They sit, unchained by thought until a newscaster tells them that their day is done officially, and says . . . "good night."

Sunday was always a day of hospitality at grandpas, and no day of rest for grandma. Someway, somehow she had found time during the week to bake pies and cakes enough to go round and Sunday morning she was up hours before the rest of us preparing a dinner that would do credit to her reputation. I can not remember her seating less than ten guests and often the number was twenty or more. Grandpa, being quite liberal in his views, permitted his children to see the yearly circus - if they were able to save up the admission charge from the occasional dimes and quarters that came their way. I rather suspect that grandma often slickered the old gent on this account. But the theatre was taboo. No decent person would come into such close contact with those "painted hussys and sinful wastrels". GOOD OLD DAYS? .
Yes, Grandpa and his generation were of the breed that Mr. Hoover admired so greatly. Rugged (and ragged) individualists, tough and very self reliant. And they lived in those good old days to which so many look back on with homesickness. But it is questionable if those who so dolefully yearn for them would be excruciatingly happy if their wish were to be fulfilled tomorrow. EDITORS NOTS : Mr. Roy E.

English Clinic Designed For Motivated StudentS 11
Help for the Palomar student with an English difficiency has been administered by English instructor Richard S. Johnson. Johnson stated that entrance into the English Clinic does not necessitate the recommendation of another English instructor. He did suggest, however, that teachers of courses unrelated to English, recommend that their students having difficulty expressing themselves on paper, spend a few weeks in the English Clinic. Well pleased with the average student that attends the clinic, because "the student who comes to the clinic for help is truly motivated to improve his writing." Johnson feels that more help can be given to this type of student . than the students in the remedial courses who are forced by the placement tests to improve their use of the English language.

Under the shade of three youthful maple trees, near the Student Union, the art department has placed its latest contribution in its program of campus beautification. The piece of art, a hollow concrete sculpture, · has attracted considerable attention and drawn numerous comments
from both students and faculty. One student, at a loss for the appropriate descriptive adjectives, finally said, "Well it IS art - I guess." And one faculty member commented, "Gee, it's awful isn't it." A coed wittingly . said, "You know I never did understand modern art." The sculpture, for those have not seen it, is not modern art. Rather it is the trunk of a female body which is lying on its side. It was done by John Brennick in the Special Pro-blems class which the art department offers.

PC' s Busiest "Enioys Working With Students"
Political Science Sp-eaker Hosted By PC Patrons Dr. Minos Generales will speak to the Palomar Patrons at their first meeting of the new year in the Student Union Monday, February 17, at 7:30p.m. Dr. Generales is a professor of political science at San Diego State College. Dr. Generales, who has spoken twice in the Humanities Lecture Series, will speak Monday on "World Issues and Their Implications to American People." Dr. Generales is extremely well qualified in the fields of international relations and international law. He has studied at law schools in Paris, Vienna, The Hague, and Harvard; received a grant from the Ford Foundation for studies of the European Defense Community; and heads an annual conference on international relations at San Diego State. President of the Patrons, Mrs. Emily Wright of Vista, reminds all students that these meetings are open to them and she urges their attendance. The Patrons are a group of local citizens interested in providing the students of this area with the highest educational opportunity possible. Their activities include both scholarships . and educational lectures, such as Dr. Generales'.

Comets Defeat Top Teams Wrestling Turnout at Palomar Shows Lack of Interest Wrestling is one of the oldest sports in the history of man. It developed because primitive man frequently had to combat wild animals with no weapons but his hands. There are few feints or tricks known to the modern wrestler that were not practiced by Greek and Roman athletes before the birth of Christ. Some authorities say wrestling was known as early as 3000 B.C. in Egypt and Babylonia. Here at Palomar wrestling was organized in 1960.

Who can believe it's true? The Palomar Comets, fresh from the memory of 15 straight defeats, knocked off the first and second place teams in the sec over the weekend. Last Saturday the Comets defeated the league leading Antelope Valley team, 76-65 while Friday they defeated Santa Barbara 87-73 to move into a tie for second place, with a chance at first. In Friday night's game Jim Gray was the high scoring Comet
TEAM LACKS MEMBERS
This year, as in the previous ones, the team lacks members. So far there are four players on the squad; a full team is ten. Because of this small turnout all wrestling meets had to be cancelled and Palomar can play only in tournaments. The four players that make the team up are Doug Arnold, Craig McDonald, Jesus Lomeli, and Bob Phillips. Arnold is a 171 pound wrestler who graduated from San Marcos, but wrestled for the Vista High School team before moving. ARNOLD VASTLY IMPROVED
"Arnold is vastly improved and looks real good," says coach Chris Pagakis. This is Arnold's first year at Palomar, and he will be a great asset on the team next year. For Bob Phillips, this is the first year he has wrestled. He came to Palomar from New York, where )le went to high school. "Phillips is very green this year, but he is coming around," states Pagakis. Craig McDonald, a former Vista wrestler, took fourth place in the C.I.F. tournament during his senior year at Vista before coming to Palomar. McDonald scored all four points for the Comets in the Cal Poly invitational tournament in which 23 schools participated. This is also the first year Lomeli has competed in college wrestling. He is a former wrestler from Vista, where he did very well. "After he gets a little more experience he should look real good," says Pagakis. GOOD WRESTLERS IN PAST
In the past years Palomar has had many good wrestlers play on its teams. In 1961 and 62 there was Ken Imaizumi, a 115 pound tiger from Escondido. When Ken was playing at Escondido he was C. I. F . champion. While wrestling for Palomar he compiled a 14-2 record. "Wrestling is the only sport where the little guy can compete," says Pagakis, and Ken certainly proved that fact. Another outstanding wrestler that year was Mikio Hamada. Mikio wrestled in the 123 pound class, and did so well at Palomar that he is now wrestling at Hum bolt State. In 1962 the outstanding man on the squad was Bob Bourgeois who weighed 130. Bourgeois ended up the season with a 7-4 record, and is also wrestling at Hum bolt State. By VINCE STREANO
Comets Begin Baseball Season On The Road Friday the Palomar Comets will open their baseball season by traveling to Riverside to do battle with the Riverside City Tigers. Last year the ¡ two ball clubs played a single game, with the Comets taking home the victory. Both teams finished second in their respective leagues last season, Riverside in the Eastern Conference and Palomar in the South Central Conference. Riverside will be a tough opponent for the Comets' first game, and will be a good testing ground for the newcomers to the team. With only four returning lettermen, Coach Ward "Rusty" Myers has his work cut out for him. But Coach Myers is always optimistic. "If the pitching keeps on improving like it is, we should be in good shape to win our share of ball games," said Myers. The four returning lettermen the Comets have are Fred Reynoso , Jerry Vinla f Bill Reed,
and Bernie Thomas. "This year's turnout for baseball is the best Palomar has ever had," commented coach Myers. To date the team numbers 23, and with basketball season coming to a close, there may be four or five more players joining the ball team. Players fighting to gain starting positions in the outfield and infield are Tom Wilbur, first base and catcher; Mike Chase, shortstop; Tony Requilman, second base; Lucky Miller, outfield; John Ensor, pitcher and outfield; Dick Castro, catcher; Doug Burkett, catcher; Mi~ Taylor, infield; Rick Jackson, infield; and Jerry McKeen , outfield. The Comet pitching staff this year is large but inexperienced. The right handed hurlers are Steve Kahler, John Hall, Fred Reynoso , Nick Dillon, Mike Cummings, and Dave LeMasters. The "south paws" are Dennis VanDerheiden and John Ensor.

Basketball and Leap Year By KATHERN ANN McELHINEY
Since this is leap year, most girls on campus are hunting desperately for something tall, good looking, intelligent and male. Following the process of elimination, one soon discovers the basketball team. Most of the players fit into all four categories, and they're a group of real winners. A quick look at their record would soon prove that point. The best time to observe these boys in action is between the hours of 3 and 5:30 p.m. after school. This is their usual practice time and except for the team and the coach, the dome is usually empty. Since girls never distract them, one can watch undisturbed. They follow a set pattern of drills every night. The coach's favorite involves arranging several chairs around the middle of the floor and seeing who can be the first to trip over tb._em. The team prefers playing "dunk the ball " since anyone who misses gets to swing on the rim of the basket. Once a week the coach gives a descriptive talk about the other team so. we'll know how much better they are. He also gives descriptive talks about our players during the drills, but no one but the team can hear them since the dome echoes so much. They sound quite interesting, though.
Those girls who are unable to go to practice can still see the basketball players at a "game." These take place on Friday and Saturday nights and are free. The boys aren't qu ite at their best here, but they do win a I game now and then. The spectators at a Palomar College basketball game consist of the two teams, their coaches and managers, the referees, scorekeepers, cheerleaders, and a rooting section. Don't join the rooters because they're for the other team. Our boys don't play for the glory and thrill of hearing the loud cheers of the crowd. , Probably the one thing our team needs most to win the game is points. A girl who really wants to meet the players should become a scorekeeper and make sure there are always more points on our side of the scoreboard. This would soon bring her to the attention of both teams and all others involved with the game. Once a girl meets the boys, lj she will soon find them irresistable. Several players are wrapped like mummies before each game because of injuries involved escaping eager ~i rls. Anyone who wants a date for the Sadie Hawkins Dance had better hurry, though. If the team starts winning, they'll have to hire an -armed guard to keep the girls away.

with a total of 27 points. Blair Smith added another 23, while J. B. Hollis made 12 and Fred Boyer 10 to round out the Comets who scored in double figures. J. B. Hollis was the outstanding defensive man in both games. Against Santa Barbara he held Sal Rodriguez, the Vaqueros' big gunner, to 14 points. Rodriguez scored 24 in his last game against Palomar. The Comets took an early lead against Santa Barbara, but with 13 minutes to play in the first half the Vaqueros had pulled ahead to lead 15-23. For a while it looked as if Palomar was headed for another loss, but the team pulled together and fought to within four points, 39-35, at halftime. During intermission coach Joe Brennan told his team it was now or never. The team decided it had better be now, and when the second half started they scored 12 points in a row before Santa Barbara could make a basket. From then on it was the Comets all the way as they never relinquished their lead, and at one point they built up a 16 point advantage. In the Antelope Valley game the Comets didn't come by victory as easily. The Comets led most of the first half, but a last minute surge by the Marauders put Antelope Valley ahead 33-38 at intermission. The Comets fought back, however, and outscored their opponents 43-26 in the second half. - The big three of Blair Smith, Jim Gray, and Fred Boyer led the Comets' scoring attack, but it was the tremendous defensive efforts of guards J . B. Hollis and Gary Rhinehart that sparked the win. Smith pushed through 17 points, while Gray and Boyer hit 14 and 11 respectively. Boyer fouled out with 15:51 left in the game and Gray departed with 11:30 remaining. With these two players gone the Marauders started cutting the Comet lead, getting as close as 68-64 with two minutes left in the game.
