Roy ArCher Spet~ks On Communist China Campaign Issue, Whot Sholl Policy Be In South Viet Nom?'' 11

"Possible U. S. attitudes toward Communist China" was the topic of a speech given by Roy R. Archer, professor of political science, to Alpha Gamma Sigma club last Thursday. Mr. Archer discussed the various policies that' have been suggested for dealing with Red ·China. Among them are full appeasement, a "liberation," or fullscale war policy, a "TwoChina" policy, which involves recognition of Red China as a separate nation from Nationalist China, and an isolat'-f>n policy, which is the one now used by the United States government. Isolation of Red China concerns withholding diplomatic relations, and asking allies to cooperate in a trade embargo. Unfortunate· ly, many of America's allies persist in trading with the Communists. STATUS QUO

The United States, said Archer, wishes to maintain the status quo in Southeast Asia, and to prevent further aggression on the part of Chjna. The national armies of St>uth Viet Nam and of India, two countries now at war with the Communist Chinese, would be unable to resist effectively without U.S. help. We are committed to offering technical help. Controversy rages today O"er whether we should withdraw, or expand, our help. CAMPAIGN ISSUES

One of the campaign issues between Lyndon Johnson arid Barry Goldwater is what shall our policy be in South Viet ~am? Senator Goldwater de-

Elections

Code Now Amended · The Executive Council approved a revised and amended Elections Code· on October 26. The action was taken as part ofthe Council's attempt to provide a more effective Constitution. ENCOURAGE STUDENTS

Karl Johnson, representative-at-large, said, "The Executive .Council feels that this new Code will encourage more students to participate in student government. Not only have procedures for candidates been relaxed, but it will also be easier for students to vote in the elections." Many of the changes revolve around the election proceedings. Elections will not be held two weeks prior to final exams, and run-ofT elections, if necessary, will be conducted within three days of the original balloting. CODHfAKING

The TeLescope will not be published on November 10 and 17, because of previously arranged publication dates. The TeLescope will resume publication on November24.

HUMANITIES SERIES

Modern man seems to have lost direction with the coming of the scientific age. This was the theme of Dr. Byron Guyer's keynote address last Friday who started this year's Humanities Lecture Series on "The Arts and Contemporary Human Directions".

Incumbent Congressman James Utt was displaced by Democrat Paul Carpenter by a margin of 15 to 5. George Hood defeated incumbent Republican Hale Ashcraft for the 80 Assembly District by the (Continued on page 2)

The races fol' Congress and Assembly were also won by the Republican Candidates. James Utt retained his Congressional seat by 24 votes, while Bale Ashcraft kept the office of Assemblyman by 121 votes. . Student voters passed Proposition 14, a Constitutional amendment outlawing fair housing acts by a margin of 57%. HIGHER EDUCATION

Proposition 2, a bond issue for higher education, was approved by 91% of the voters. Proposition 16, an initiative for a lottery, was defeated by 114 votes. Proposition 15, an initiative to prevent the development of pay television, was approved by 25 votes. 19% of the students who voted for President Johnson split their ticket in the Senatorial race, voting for George Murphy. However, only 10% of the Goldwater Republicans left the Republican ballot to vote for Pierre Salinger. NOT PARTISAN ·~It's interesting to note that Proposition 14 did not turn out to be as partisan an issue at Palomar College as we thought it would be. Even though it is a moral issue, possibly the most significant moral issue ever to confront California voters, people are obviously taking stands on it which reflect their political feelings," said Bob Gaytan, a member of the Young Democrats.

POLITICAL CONVICTIONS

In the election, both Johnson people and Goldwater people split their votes. Many Democrats voted "yes" on the issue and many Republicans voted "no". Concerning the mock elections, Joseph Malik, Director of Student Activities, said, "A mock election affords students the opportunity to express their political convictions. The (Continued on page 3)

which set the standard. Whereas the things common to England are the standard only to Englishmen. Elliot through his poetry, Dr. Guyer ex plained, epitomized the anesthetized mind of modern man which refuses to ponder the question of being, because he is afraid of what other men will think of him. CONTEMPORARY WRITERS

Dr. Guyer brought to view the idea that there are no heroes of which modern poets can sing, and no heroic men and women to sculpt or paint. Contemporary writers picture man as defeated, confused, and groping. CASUAL OBSERVER

In concluding, Dr. Guyer pointed out that perhaps the contemporary artist seems hopeless to the casual observer. But it is not so, he contended. It is merely that the contemporary artist recognizes the seeming hopelessness of his age, and is a realist, because it makes him seem more real to himself. Dr. Guyer's presentation was heard by about 250 students and teachers. Jim Logsdon, ASB President, commented that, "I can only hope that interest will remain as high for the rest of the lecture series."

With in the Christian Universe God is three persons: the Supreme Being, the Living Christ, and the Holy Spirit. Reverend Smith pointed out that at the present time certain leaders of . the Christian Church are rejecting the Trinity. They declare that the Trinity is a philosophy which started in the fifth century and was not the view taken at the time of the Christian Churches founding. This view is the phi· losophy of the modern day Unitarian Church. PROVINCE MEETING

Palomar had seven Newman Club members at the San Diego Province meeting Sunday. The Palomar and Southwestern College are looking into the prospect · of sponsoring a Newman Club Leadership Conference in December for all the Newman Club mem· bers in the Province. Possibilities of a weekend outing at a camp in the mountains is being looked into. They hope to have well known speakers, assemblies, workshops, a dance, and Mass on Sunday.
