GOOD DEAL

Mullins Contest ASB Elections; Council Calls Emergency Meeting

Card Club Gains Council s OK 1

A few weeks ago, Dr. McGeever, Dean of Student Personnel, marched into the Student Union with a VERY stern face. The stern face perceptively viewed all that was to be seen in the union, and then called a timely halt to certain 'unbefitting' student activities. McGeever gathered up all playing cards within sight, and announced that cardplaying on campus was against state law. Why? Because this particular activity 'does not create an atmosphere conducive to most efficient academic performance'. The students were crushed. Would there be no end to the stifling of their pleasures, their wellbeing, their emotional stability? " No!" said daring Mike Penn and associates. We cannot stand by and see our youth ruined with drudgery, we will form the Bridge Club! Thus, in a storm of righteous indignation a new club has been formed at Palomar. The club is official, it has a constitution, regular club members, and most important, it has the approval of the administration. Ev-

Obiections Made on the Grounds That Article I Of The Election Code Was Violated During Elections

ery day, ·at almost any hour, at least one bridge game is raging away in R-2. The club even has a purpose: "To teach and further the members knowledge of a definite social grace. " . . . as stated in the constitution. The Bridge Club is exclusive, one must have a 2.0 grade average to join. Many people have been joining. In fact, says the eminent Penn (now club president) "We may have to set a maximum on the number of members because we are growing so fast. "

Hood Talks

It is an experience to

visit the Bridge Club room - even if one is not at all interested in bridge. The club members are a combination of all types of students. There are athletes, politicians, intellects and philosophers, to nam e a few. They enjoy good jokes, or a heated discussion, or even a quiet, rowdy game of bridge. A nod of approval and recognition is well earned by the Bridge Club, its members , its p residentfounder, and of course Mr. Archer and Mr. Tabor who so graciously donate their time as advisors.

The Ma rine Corps will also show at the fair some of its newest scientific equipment, including a radar van, shoe and textile repair van, computer equipme nt, a helicoptertransportable j eep, and a tank destroye r. Sponsoring the e xposition is the Greater San Luis Rey Planning and Development Council, in cooperation with junior colleges and North County chambers of co mmerce. Raym ond Wayman, Fallbrook Council Pr esident, said, "The purpose of the fair is to tell the region's industrial story to its own population as we ll as to Southern California in gen eral. Few people realize how much manufacturing is d one in northern San Diego County, or the impressive diversity of the region 's manufactured products."

VARYING OPINIONS

In the heat of this whole affair are many and varying opinions. Darlen e Bu tterworth, present ASB secretary and cand idate for this office, said: "I don't think the entire election should have been declared invalid, it should have been between j ust the two contested ." Vince Streano, candidate for sophomore president, commented: "In the past there have been minor violations of the election code such as the ones that have occur ed in this election, but this is the first ti me anything has been said about it. I think Mullins is being unreasonable and unrealistic in dem anding this re-electio n. He is being a poor loser." Logsdon, when asked what he would do (if elected) to prevent inept handling of elections in t he future, said: "Elections will be held only once and will he held with strict and impartial enforcement of all election rules. Election rules are good and necessary, if they are enforced."

18 BOOKS PER STUDENT

Lapham Fails To Qualify Palomar speedster Rich Lapham failed in his bid to qualify for the 220 finals at the state JC championship Saturday night at Modesto. Lapham ran the 220 in 21.9, while the first place winner, Travis Williams, did it in 21.3. "Lapham's main trouble was that he wasn't used to running around the curve," said track coach Joe Brennan. "Lapham has run the 220 in 21.3, but that was on a straightaway." DIDN'T QUALIFY IN 100

Lapham's 9.9 time in the 100 was also above the 9.6 qualifying time. The winner of the 100 and 220 was Travis Williams, a sprint runner from Contra Costa. Travis ran the 100 in 9.3 and the 220 in 21.3. When coach Bre nnan was asked if he was disappointed in Lapham's performance, he replied, " No, it's kind of an honor just to be there."

Campus Library Grows By TONY ATKINSON

Twelve thousand volumes were moved into Palomar's library building in 1956 when the new building was first put to use. The library now houses a total of 37,461 volumes which " is about 18 books per student counting day and night registration" , according to head librarian Esther Nesbin. During the 1963-64 school year the library will have added a total of 7,080 volumes to its collection. The means the library employs to obtain books are severaL The first is a n $18,000 budget provided by allotments from the National Defense Education Act, Average Daily Attendance, and community tax funds. This figure takes a gradual rise each year due to the _yearly rise in attendance in the college. Eight thousand dollars is spent yearly for new books which will be h elpful to students as they prepare for their chose n vocations. These books cover the subjects of Life Science, Chemistry, Mathematics, E n gi neering, Art, Physical Science, Ph otography. In addition, $10,000 was invested for books in the general r ealms of fiction and non fiction with special emphasis on the Humanities.

The library has other sources for new material in addition to the budgeted purchases. Mrs. Leonard Welles, wife of a local school board member, adds to the library's collection by donating general classics and books of historical material. This year her contributions amounted to 750 volumes. . Colonel George A. Shaffer of Vista also donated several hundred books this year including material on World War II.

Mrs. Gertrude E. Treat, an author residing in Encinitas, contributed 150 volumes of fiction and mystery stories. Books dealing with the techniques of writing were also included. Head librarian Esther Nesbin says that former students often donate books. Victor Shul, Honolulu resident, regularly sends books through the mail to the library. Books of all kinds can be found by the ambitious person after a good grade on his term paper as well as the person wis hing to broade n hi s knowle dge. Books on both s ides of today's world problems from Marx and Le nin on one hand to the "Naked Communist" a nd "Masters of Deceit" on the other.

For the individual who cares to look, there can be located on page 561 of the newly arrived edition of Who's Who In America an entry of Dr. John W.Dunn. In addition to the great educational opportunities that students find in the library, many discover the periodical room. Here, term paper minded students discover information to fill the pages of their reports. The library is able to keep these students busy with subscriptions to 463 magazines each month. Sixteen daily and weekly newspape rs are received at the periodical room for students wishing to keep abreast of current affairs. Expansion plans for the library are now through the drawing board stage. Construction will get under way in early 1965 and will be completed by the end ofthatyear. Expans ion plans include doubling the size of the east classrooms, a new reading room located on the north side, expansion of the audio visual room, and expansion of the periodical room. The library, open a total of 73'h hours a week may have its hours extended to 10:00 p.m. if the budget permits.

To Join Or Not To Join

Rhinehart Receives Most Valuable Athlete Award

By Glen Bailey To join or not to join- this was the question. It was answered in short order as Palomar's Board of Directers decided to become a charter member of the newly formed Pacific Southwest Conference. Thus, the decision was made, but a question still remains which bothers Comet athletes and coaches alike was joining the n ew league the right move to make? LAPHAM MARKS END DF SCC Rich Lapham's fine performance in the Junior College track finals at Modesto, Saturday night, marked the final competitive effort of any Palomar athlete in the South Central Conference. His effort also marks the end of a long and successful history in the South Central Conference. Oceanside-Carlsbad, Antelope Valley, Santa Barbara, College of the Desert, and Imperial Valley, were the conference opponents of the past. The new Pacific Southwest Conference is composed entirely of junior colleges in San Diego County. Palomar is the northermost component of the league. Oceanside-Carlsbad, Palomar's staunchest and closest rival, turned down an invitation to join the new conference, claiming to be too small to handle the rough competition of the Pacific Southwest. 0-C RIVALRY WILL CONTINUE This rejection, however, will not end t he fierce OceansidePalomar rivalry. According to Chris Pagakis, head football coach, the tradition a l fray between the two schools will remain an integral part of the Comet pigskin schedule. Palomar will have to equal, and then better many fine team performances of past years in order to compete with schools of the new league. Grossmont, Southwestern, Kearny Mesa, and San Diego City Coll ege all offer an abundance of rugged competitio n. All are expected to give Palomar "tough pickins" in the new league. Despite a fine coaching staff and many talented athletes, there is more than a chance that Palomar will suffer from the competition stand point. "Competition will be rough at first," commented athletic director Ward Myers. "This is equally true of football because it is a sport which requires depth and personnel." Myers feels Palomar will definitely be able to compete in baseball a nd basketball since these sports require fewer men to build a good team. "I HATE TD THINK ABOUT IT" Unfortunately, other coaches are not as optimistic about Palomar's success in the new league. Assistant football coaches Bob Bowman and "Ace" McGehee are steadfastly opposed to the new league. "I hate to even think about it," groaned Bowman. "We won't be able to compete unless we are able to acquire more players with outstanding ability." Bowman feels the teams in the immediate San Diego area have a distinct advantage in the way of recruiti ng. "These schools have close to 30 class AA high schools from which to draw," he commented, "whereas all Palomar has is Escondido. Pagakis and basketball coach Joe Brennan sense this competition problem, but feel the advantages of the new conference far outweigh its disadvantages. Transportation cost was a key issue behind Palomar's decision to join the Pacific Southwest Conference. "All our away games," related Pagakis, "with the exception of a possible non-leagj.le encounter, will be an easy 30-40 minute drive." He also feels that this time factor should be an incentive to Palomar fans to attend all · Comet games. PSC WOULD GIVE PJC PRESTIGE The new league should give Palomar more pride and added prestige. "This is a high class conference," explains Pagakis. "Local fans have never heard of some of the teams on this past year's schedule. But, if we can beat a team such as Southwestern's, our supporters can rightfully feel we have accomplished something." "We want and need this competition," says Pagakis, "for against good teams we will be able to build a tradition, a winning tradition which will make our fans proud, and lure prospective athletes to Palomar."

Eight Lettermen Will Return To Tennis Team E ight men will letter from the Palomar Tennis team, and of those eight, six will return for next year's team. The e ight lettermen are Ralph Vaughan, Brad Bean, Larry Bonney, Charles Buman, Ke n Renick, Larry Sturgeon, Greg Brown, and Leroy Stark. Stark and Sturgeon are the only ones that won't be able to return. VAUGHAN WINS SINGLES The Comets finished a successful season May 2 when they played An telope Valley in the league finals. Palomar took the singles matches with Ralph Vaughan coming in first, while Antelope Valley took the doubles whe n the com bin ation of Yake and White defeated Vaughan and Bean 6-3,8-6,4-6. As a result of the Antelope Valley Meet, Palomar was a ble to send Va ughan and Bean to the Southern California Jr. College Regional Tournament. Although they both lost in the first round, they did an outstanding job. Vaughan lost to Kohler from San Diego City College 3-6, 4-6, while Bean lost of Borras from Glendal e 3-6, 3-6.

In doubles play Vaughan and Bean lost to Jonte and Wiedemire from Southwestern 3-6, 4-6. EL CAMINO WINS MEET El Camino won the meet, with San Diego City coming in second. Against junior college competition the Comets end ed the year at five and five. In all, the Palomar racquet squad played 20 matches and three tournaments. "We had one of the most extensive schedules of college history," stated coac h Cecil McGehee, "and it was very successful. Next year with those six lettermen r eturning, our season should be even more successful. "

"People think happiness is all wrapped up in 1 what they can get, but happiness is far more what ' we can give," were the words of Dr. John Dunn, _ _ _ _ _ _ _,..,.-...:~....... featured speaker at the annual sports banquet last Wednesday. Dr. Dunn went on to say that "The contribution you make is the t hing you remember, and this is how athletics works." After his speech Dr. Dunn was given the first of two sta nding ovations. His second came after he was given a present from· the school's coaches. Gary Rhinehart, Dexter Winn, and Steve Hancher were awarded the three major sports awa rds at the banquet. ACTIVE IN FOOTBALL AND BASKETBALL Rhinehart was given the Athlete of the Year trophy. Rhinehart participated in football and basketball this year. In football he played wingb ack, while in basketball he was a guard. He proved to be outstanding in both sports. Winn was named winner of the Sportsmanship trophy. Winn also participated in two sports, track and football. In track he was Palomar's number one weight man. The trophy for the athlete with the highest scholastic record was presented to Steve Hancher. Hancher is now carrying a perfect 4.0 scholastic record. Hancher, who comes from Vista High School ,

Jim Kerns, Palomar outfielder, attempts to lay down a bunt in the recent Palomar versus Santa Barbara game. The Comets were tied for

first going into the game, but they were defeated twice by the Vaqueros and ended the league in second place.

Santa Barbara Kills Comets lst Place Hopes In League Ending Double Header Palomar Comets' hopes of a first place berth in SCC standings were d ashed May 9, when they were defeated in a double header by the Santa Barbara nine. The Comets lost the first game 8-7 and the second game 4-3. In the first contest the Comets were behind 3-2 going into the ninth. But then they scored five times on singles by Fred Reysoso, Bill Reed, a double by Bill Jack, a nd a triple by Dick Castro. The Palomar club only had to get three outs now before they won, but Santa Barbara had different ideas as they scored five times in their half of the inning to win. COMETS LEAD 3-0 In the second game the Comets had a three to n othing lead going into the sixth. In the sixth the Vaqueros scored three to tie up the game, and the n scored one in the bottom of th e seventh on a squeeze play to win. With these two losses, the Comets ended league play in secon~ place behind first place Imperial Valley. Antelope Valley placed third. Next year the Comets, with 12 freshmen returning, promise to have the strongest team ever. The positions u p the middle of a baseball team a re said to be the most important for a good defe nse. If this is tru e, then next year's Comet baseball team has something to look forward to, for all 12 of the freshmen h ave played one of the positions up the middle. CASTRO COMETS ACECATCHER Dick Castro, the Comets' ace catcher this year, will return to n ext year's team. Castro's hitting was consistent all year, and his a bility to block pitch es that were thrown in the dirt kept many base-

r unners from advancing. Playing s hortstop this year, and eligible to return next year is Mike Chase. Chase's d efensive ability was tops in the league. He has a strong arm and covers his position with good speed. Chase was also a n outstanding hitter, as he batted fourth the whole year. This year's regular center fielder was John Ensor. Ensor, who throws left handed, was the Comets' best fly catcher. Although John's batting average was not above 250, he gave Palomar some timely hits. His hitting is expected to improve next year. Bob Crenshaw could be one of the Comets' most important returning freshmen. Bob can play left field and a ny infield position. This year he played first base a nd left field, but next year he will probably concentrate on an infie ld position.

FIRST THREE HURLERS The Comets also have their number one, two and three pitchers returning next year. Dusty Lovera, a big r ight handed pitcher, started the season late a nd did not break into pitching rotation until there were only eight games left in the season. As it was, Dusty still won two and lost only one, and also saved a couple as a relief p itcher. Dusty throws a h ard fast ball and is still developing a good curve and knuckle ball. The other returning pitcher is Dave LeMasters. LeMasters has a good curve and sneaky fastball , which he combines with pin po int control. Even though Dave had some rough luck with errors be hind him he was still an outstanding pitcher, and should prove to be even better next year. A third pitcher who will return to the Comet line-up next year is Dennis VanDer-

heiden. Dennis is a tall lettbander with all the tools of a good pitcher. This year Dennis was used mainly as a relief pitcher, but next year he has a good chance to break into the starting rotation. JACK IMPROV ING Bill Jack, this yea r 's Comet regular right field er, will also return to n ext year's team. Bill has a fine arm that will improve with further use. Although his hitting was poor at the beginning, it showed signs of improving as the season progressed. Jim Kerns played all the outfield positions. Jim has good speed in the field and on the bases. Because Jim inj ured his ankle during basketball, he got started late in the season. Playing r ight field and second base was Tony Requilman. Tony will be fighting to hold down second ba se n ext year. This year he was a fine pinch hitter . The few innings Tony played second base this year, he showed he could h andle the position without diffic ul ty. Tom Wilbur, a left handed hitter and a right handed outfield er and catcher was used mostly in relief this year. He was also used as a pinc h hitter, and should be a big asset to the team n ext year . Jerry McKeen rounds out the twelve freshmen. Although Jerry didn't see much action this year he is probably the most improved ball player in the club. Next year he hopes to play the outfield.

Golf Squad Places 5th In Tourney The Palomar Comet golf squad captured a fifth place tie in the state tournament at Monterey May 11. The tournament was 36 holes, and there were 20 schools participating. Rick Tunstall fired the lowest Comet score with a 161. Right behind him was Mike Cisneros with 162. Bill Jenkins fired a 163, with Roger Graves and Ken Knudson firing a 164 and 166 respectively. TEAM EVENLY MATCHED "I think these scores show how evenly matched our team is," said golf coach Bob Bowman. Fifth pl ace is the best any Comet golf squad has done in the state tournament. Last year the Comets placed eighth. L.A. Valley won the tourn ament, with Chabot placing second. Santa Ana was third, Santa Monica fourth, while Palomar and San Mateo tied for fifth. "This is one of the best golf teams Palomar has ever had," sa id Bowman. Rick Tunstall is the only one of the five who played in the Sta te finals and will r eturn n ext year. Freshmen Don Hovey and Mike Dybka, who did not travel to the tournament, will also return. BOWMAN'S LAST YEAR This is Bob Bowman's last year as gol f coach.

played on the Comet basketball team as a forward. Fred Reynoso was awarded t he Outstanding Base ball Player trophy. Reynoso was chosen by his teammates for his outstanding performances at first base and with the bat. In presenting Reynoso with his trophy, Coach Myers said , ni don't believe I have ever coached a team that has made a greater comeback, and this boy made one of the greatest comebacks I ha ve ever seen a kid make." MYERS GIVEN TROPHY After Reynoso was given his award, Dick Castro stepped to the front of the room and gave Rusty Myers, Palomar's ret iring baseball coach, a trophy from the team. " It's kind of hard to talk," sa id Myers after the presentation, but I will treasure this the rest of my life." Gary Agatep was the recipient of the Most Valuable Football Player award. Agatep was also the captain of the football team. · For basketball, Palomar's 6'4" forward, Blair Smith, received the trophy for the Most Valuable Player. Smith, an All Avocado League choice from San Dieguito, will return to the team next year. R ich Lapham won the Most Valuable Player award in track. Lapham broke t}le school record for the 220 (21.3) and placed third in the South Central Conference meet. He was also the only Comet to travel to the State finals. Mike l Cisneros was chosen as the most outstanding golfer on the Comets' golf squad. Cisneros usually played the first spot on the Comet team, and was instrumental in Palomar's fifth place showing in the State finals. VAUGHAN FIRST IN TENNIS In tennis it was Ralph Vaughan who placed first. Vaughan was continually Palomar's number one tennis man, and was one of the two men the racquet squad sent to the State finals. Bill Donahue received the Most Valuable award in cross country, while in IntraMural it was' Jeff Stuart who received the award. After all the awards had been presented, head football coach, Chris Pagakis, got up and said he had a little present for Dr. Dunn from all the coaches. He then presented Dr. Dunn with the gift, which turned out to be a golf bag and an umbrella . After he had opened the box the gifts were in, he held them up for all to see, a nd was given his second standing ovation. " I will always remember Palom3r," the retiring president said, and I will always come back to see a contest between the Palomar Comets and the Oceanside-Carlsbad Spartans which I consider o.ne of the greatest rival ries I have ever known."
