Scientist Sees Dangerous East West Power Conflict World Government Cited As Answer Western Democracies Possible Leaders By KARL JOHNSON

During his work on the Manhattan Project, Dr. Harold C. Urey stated-that, "He never would have believed that in twenty years there would be enough stored Atomic and Hydrogen bombs to equal 10 to 20 tons of TNT for every person on earth."

Vandals Destroy Sculpture After Dance; Dean McGeever Cites Act As Malicious Psychological Reason For Destruction; Lack Of Evidence Prevents Punishment The cement sculpture under the maple trees lasted less than a week. It was destroyed after the Valentines dance by unknown vandals. No one knows

who the vandals were, but Dean John McGeever, dean of student personnel said, "I can't believe it would be any of our students."

Eddie Gurren and Randall Keith will sing at the Area I Hoot in Balboa Stadium. They will perform with seven other groups March 20 and 21. The groups from each of the Area I schools were selected February 12 in Russ Auditorium. Four groups represented Palomar in the tryouts. Paul Gethardt, Randall Keith, Eddie Gurren, and Terry Schwaner appeared. The selection of a queen candidate to represent the school was held Friday. Karen Griffith was selected to appear on the Sundown Show. Tickets for the hoot are being sold at Poway, Ramona, Vista, Fallbrook, PJC book store, two high schools in Escondido, and Reese's Music Store. Bob Mullins, head of the committee to look into the purchase of blazers, stated that "We have access to money. It is there, and it's for us to use, but as yet, we haven't gone through Dr. Schettler." The blazers would be for council, band, and the choir members. Eight or ten dozen are to be purchased, and Mr. Brubeck may furnish some funds. The Spring State Conference for student government will be held at the Biltmore Hotel in Los Angeles. Five people will be chosen from each school to attend. The ASB has budgeted funds for this event which will take place April 23, 24, and 25. The school carry-all will provide transportation. An after-game hoot was held February 21 in the Student Union. Some of the students participating were Carol Me Comb, Kathy Larish, Eddie Gurren, and Randall Keith. Bob Mullins was in charge of organizing and coordinating the event.

"This is a Damocles Sword hanging over our heads," commented Dr. Urey as an analogy of the present political power struggle between East and West. "What is Communism?"

"Communism is an economic system where the government controls the economy and all the people work for the government," said Dr. Urey. In comparing the United States and Russian economy, the United States government maintains limited control over those business in which public interest is involved. "World Government"

Dr. Urey believes that, "As long as reasonably responsible men are in control of countries having an Atomic capability we are safe." Though he still realizes that. there is an ever present danger the only cure for which he contend s is a "World Government." The "World Government, " Dr. Urey envisions, is one with sovereign powers to make and enforce laws. He compares the present United Nations and the former League of Nations with the Articles of Confederation both of which proved inadaquate. As an example he pointed out how "A lexander Hamilton had begged money from the individual states under the Articles, much as the United Nations has to beg for its funds." As a forerunner of his planned "World Government" Dr. Urey suggests that the Western democracies join together and form a "nucleus government" as an example for the rest of the world. He sees countries such as the United States, Canada, and Australia as being able to form this common governing body. U.S. Not a Leader

Dr. Urey does not believe that the United States is a good example for the world to follow. He comments that "our Democracy has killed four presidents, where as in England there have been no assassinations of Kings or Prime Ministers." The European Common (Continued on page 3)

THE TELESCOPE

FRITTZ IN WONDERLAND

Where Angels Fear To Tread ....... . By KENN CUTIER We all make mistakes. I made one last week when I asked Frittz Schnipp~e to join me for lunch in the Student Union. Little did I realize at the time how ill-fated one unsuspecting person's journey could be into Palomar's Grand Central Menagerie. But then Frittz will be out of the hospital in a few days and perhaps things will return to normal , whatever that is. Still I cannot rid myself of a guilty feeling regarding the whole ordeal. Why didn't I sense that it wouldn't work out when I saw poor Frittz walking across the patio toward the Union? Why didn't I cry out to him to run for hi s life before that friendly student slammed the sliding door on Frittz 's foot? How could I have known? Courtesy aside, I've never seen a student close a sliding door in the six months that I have been a full-fledged Union rat. Even when it's been ten below outside. It was really pitiful watching Frittz limp over to the table where I was sitting dragging his foot behind him. He took an empty chair, the wrong one, and got belted on the side of the head with a book by a sweet coquette who claimed the chair as her own. When he finally found an unoccupied seat across t he table I attempted to apologize. I couldn't. There was just a little noise: the tumultuous chatter and patter of famished natives stampeding to get their "good , hot" lunches - baked lima bean s, dried pork disguised as roast beef, and cake with sugar frosted sugar; a muffled din over the public address system atte mpting to announce those special "collich" events' two volume-strained transistor radios giving forth with lovely melody : one playing Bobby Rydell 's " Swingin' School", the other the Beachboys' " Rah ! Rah! Rah ! Sis! Boom! Bah!" Who needs to set back and recall those good old high school days when one can enjoy them forever, and try to eat lunch at the same time, in Pai-we-mar's ever tranquil black hole of chaos. I gave Frittz a tranquilizer or two, motioned to him in sign language to ha ve patience, and gazed across the room. The air was rapidly filling with smoke. Not as much smoke, however, as there was before the government's committee on smoking re-reported what Sir Walter Raleigh had previously mentioned to Quee n Elizabeth - "But they may be bad for your health, whot." On a clear day one can see all the way across the Union to the far wall which is usually covered with one of those monumental posters which reads : Hoot! Dance! Game! or Game! Dance! Hoot! or some other completely meaningful message from an athletic owl who loves to " rock out". When things calmed a little I gave Frittz a hand and we slipped into the stream of traffic heading toward the snack bar. We arrived there just in time to be thrown into the middle of the mass of vicious students who were pushing toward the counter. One can easily imagine what the bread lines of the thirties must have been like. I lost Frittz for a moment, search frantically, and then found him on the floor. Apparently, someone had jabbed him in the stomach, thrown him down , and shoved a "sliced beef on rye" sandwich in his mouth. It wasn't so much the brutality that bothered him but rather the fact that he had never seen a real "sliced beef on rye" sandwich before. I helped him up and told him that I was sure that the snack bar had "tuna on rye" too. That made Frittz very ill. Needless to say we didn't get to eat lun.ch. Frittz was so beaten up, and nauseous, that we went back into the Union, trudged through the rising litter, and made our way to the sliding door. I heard him mutter something about the soldier who had said " war is hell" never having visited Palomar's Student Union. Then when he tried to leave that same friendly student, this time with a friendly grin, slammed the sliding door on Frittz's other foot. I almost cried as I watched Frittz crawl away across the patio. I don 't think that he'll ever return. It is a shame, too, because the Union is such a wondrously sociable place.

GUEST EDITORIAL

Statue Destroyed By Vandal It was a collection of rather uninteresting material - a sack of cement, a sheet of expanded metal lathe, reinforcing steel and some newspaper. Nothing there that would attract attention or arouse comment. Effort and time on the part of a Palomar art student and an instructor changed this material to the statue which was displayed under three trees by the locker rooms. Opinion on the form varied but it did attract attention and arouse comment.

STATUE CHANGES FACE

Vandalism by an individual or individuals, during the February 14 game, changed the statue. Smashed and cracked, it lay behind the Dome-a pile of cement, metal and wire, and some newspaper. Old junk which would not attract interest or arouse comment. Maybe somebody didn't like the statue. " But all of us have things we don't like," comments John E. Barlow, head of the Art Department, "and we (continued on page 3)

Political Soapbox Editor's Note As a result of the YD-YR Mock Elections, The Telescope has allowed students to express their political views in the above column. As a member of the Young Democrats, I believe that all students should be aware of the dangers of the Presidential candidacy of George Wallace of Alabama. His belief that the white man is superior to the black man belongs to the period preceding the Civil War and was a factor that helped cause that War. The election of such a person to the Presidency would not only set the country back one hundred years in its struggle for equality but would , undoubtedly, cause another Civil War. In addition, the governor would do irreparable damage to our foreign policy. No nation, particularly African, could look up to a President who has promised "segregation forever. " His statements on the judicia l system would promote the

image that the government is in a state of confusion. He has charged that the Federal Judiciary is "lousy and irresponsible," and that one district judge, who ordered Wallace to turn over some voting records, was an " integrating, scalawagging, carpet bagging liar.'' Such a person does not belong to, or carry out the ideals, of the Democratic Party and should be defeated in any office he runs for. Sincerely, Peggy Biszmaier My vote goes to Richard M. Nixon to again head the Republican ticket for President of the United States in 1964. Mr. Nixon's tenure in office as Vice President during the Eisenhower administration readily qualifies him for the highest office in the land. He was closer to the president in all affairs of state than any other vice president in the history of the United States. No other political figure was ever exposed to such thorough train-

or watc hing the group perform. The insect concept associated with The Beatles is contrary to the original derivation, the steady four-four beat contai'iled in their music. The February 17, 1964 issue of NEWSWEEK illustrates the ridiculous questions asked by American reporters. For example, "Which one of you is really bald?" Quite obvi-ously, The Beatles are not bald. The reply, "We're all bald," said George Harrison, "and I'm deaf and dumb. " No wonder Americans received a one-sided account of The Beatles' visit. We were disheartened with the many criticisms received. We pride ourselves in being a tolerant people, yet a cause of joy and inspiration , yes, inspiration, for many youths and adults, has to be torn apart by critics who understand THEIR attitudes only. Yvonne Schnepf and Ivana Tonoff Dear Editor: I have been waiting to read a letter in the TeLescope , complimenting your whole staff on a job going well. But as of yet, I have not read one. Like so many people I sat back thinking that, Someone will write it pretty soon. Now I've decided that it is my job. I know that the Telescope has been under much criticism and whether it is well meant or not, I know one can not continually face criticism and keep doing a good job with much enthusiasm behind it. That is why I set out to write this letter. I want to tell you, so it might be relayed through the paper to the students - criticism is easy to give out, but it is hard to back it up with good ideas and hard work. The Telescope is a school paper for the students, and if you , the students, want a paper the way you like it, you are going to have to put a little of yourselves into it. To recoin an old phrase , "A school paper is only as good as its weakest supporter." But to your staff I say, you are all doing a great job. It is a job that you can be proud of, for not many people are as dedicated as yo u all MUST be. Your time and effort which goes into OUR Telescope is overlooked by many. We laymen do not know the technical art it takes to put together a paper, so we tend to see the bad instead of the good. But I thought I would let you know that not all af your readers are "criticiers," but rather "appreciaters" of your fine efforts. Yours truly, Marti Dobesh ing in the highest of governmental procedures. In my opinion the above qualifications are real attributes to anyone seeking the _office of presidency. No one man today in public life meets those better than Richard Nixon. The American people are confused about our foreign dealings.' We need a foreign policy that stands for something far into the future. We need a policy that is strong and one that d mands respect from all the I ittle Castros throughout th e hemi· sphere. Having this well understood by all peoples everyw here and by our governmental officials (especially the Chief Executive) ready to back it up with force if necessary, we will th e n regain our prestige and respect in the world . The Kennedy-Johnson administration failed miserably in the (ield of foreign affairs. The present Johnson administration seems more interested in votegetting domestic issues just befo!e a presidential election year. We need to nominate and elect Richard M. Nixon next November to fill the void that now exists in Washington. James L. Miers

Painter Teaches

Student Expression Sought In Painting "Junior College art should get the student thinking deeply about his art expression and art studies," stated Bernard W. Dusek, an instructor in the Art Department. Originally from Nebraska, Dusek received his B.A. at the University of California at Santa Barbara in 1953. He received his M.A. in 1958 from the University of Southern California. He teaches Art Fundamentals, Life Drawing, Painting, Art History, and he counsels the Palomar Art Guild. As a painter himself, Dusek has had his paintings exhibited at the University of Southern California, the University of California at Santa Barbara, and at the Del Mar Fair. Dusek believes that the art student at the Junior College level should perfect his art skills and create new and more interests in all phases of college life.

Philosopher ••• (Continued from page 1)

Scholastic Philosopher and does not believe as Extentialists that Scholastic Philosophy is dead. He admits that Scholastism gives only a skeleton view, but he also contends that Exis· tentialism gives only flesh and blood forms with no structural support. "What might seem to be a solution in the combining of both Scholastic and Existentional Philosophies is not the answer," explained Fr. Geoffrey. He envisions more of a "Marriage" of the two philosophies with a third or new philosophy resulting from the union. HOPE NOT VISION

In summation Fr. Geoffrey stated that, "A Philosopher is not a prophet, and he gives hope not vision." Even afteF some 1500 years he believes philosophy is young and can see no end. "Philosophy will help man to understand God ," concluded Fr. Geoffrey. CATHOLIC IDEALS

Team Sports For Girls By Elizabeth Emmott

Most students are at least aware of the recent happenings in boys interscholastic sports on our campus. But far fewer people realize that there is a growing intertic program for Palomar coeds. Most of the talent for our womens interscholastic teams comes from two unusual physical education classes, team and individual sports techniques. It is not necessary to be in one of these classes to participate in interscholastic sports. However, "it is highly advisable, because during the class is the only instruction and practice time," according to Miss Ethel Calderwood, instructor of the team sports class. HOCKEY PRESENT SPORT

Hockey is the team sport at present. All girls who like hockey or became interested in the sport while in high school are encouraged to come out and play with the team. The first hockey match will be with Orange Coast College on Wednesday, February 26. The first home match will be with Long Beach City College on March 11. After spring vacation soccer and softball will be played in the class, which meets daily at 2 p.m. The other sports techniques class is for individual activities. Tennis is the sport stressed this semester, following basketball and volleyball last semester. Six matches are planned , with the first, Thursday, at Compton. The first home match is with Santa Ana on March 5. GOLF BEING ORGANIZED

A womens golf program is being organized in the class this semester, according to the instructor, Miss Donna Reiser. The individual sports techniques class will also supply players for the San . Diego County Junior College Womens Badminton Tournament to be held at Palomar, Thursday, February 27.

Referees Kept Busy

The referees were kept busy as they called a total of 37 personal fouls and five technicals, three on Imperial Valley and two on Palomar. Against College of the Desert the Comets did even better as far as scoring is concerned. The Comets again took an early lead, and by halftime the score was 42-23 in favor of Palomar. Fred Boyer was the main factor in the large halftime advantage as he scored 18 points during the first period. Boyer Scores 20

In the second half Boyer could manage only two points , but he was still high point man with20. Two other players scored in double figures for Palomar. They were J. B. Hollis with 16 and Steve Hancher with 13. With these last two wins Palomar managed to turn an almost disasterous season into a fairly good one, winning five of their last seven games. "Our basketball season was disappointing this year," said Coach Joe Brennan. We got off to a slow start because of the many injuries the team suffered. VanZandt Injured

During the Comtes' first game Tom VanZandt, first string forward , injured his knee and was out for the rest of the season . Jim Gray developed appendicitis and missed the first month of play. Gary Rhinehart suffered from a bad leg, while Blair Smith got blood poisoning. Next year the Comets will move into the new league. "The new league will be very challenging to us, but it should provide a lot of interest because of the closeness of the schools participating," stated Brennan. Nine Players Return

Nine players will return to the squad next year who were on this year's team. The players returning are Tom VanZandt, Jim Curn,Jim Gray, Blair Smith, Gary Rhinehart, John MeN eil , Robert Crenshaw, Steve Hancher, and Steve Neil. "These players will make a very good nucleus for next year's team, and we should do very well in the new league next year," stated Brennan. Final League Standings (If Antelope Valley won)

Against Imperial Valley the Comets took a fast lead and never relinquished it. With nine minutes left in the first half the Comets led by four points, and at intermission Palomar led 27-22. At one point in the second half the Comets stretched their lead to 16 points before going on to win. The Comets played well as a team, with three ofthem hitting double figures. Fred Boyer led the Palomar scoring with 15, with Gary Rinehart close behind with 12 followed by Jim Gray who hit 10. High scorer for the game was Ray Sanchez, Imperial Valley's first string forward.
