Registration Successful By Crista Gillette
Every member of the administration, faculty and counseling department who participated in the spring semester registration last week deserves credit for the excellent job they did. Most of the students on campus will agree that the pre-registration maneuvers went very smoothly and efficiently, paving the way for the quick and easy final steps to securing new classes. The method employed this semester was far superior to the mess and confusion of fall registration, which is still painfully clear in the memories of us slightly befuddled freshmen. The increase in number of students returning to Palomar this spring was certainly not evident in the quiet and spacious student union during registration. Upon entering the cafeteria on the date and time specified on his priority card, the student was likely to stop in wonder asking himself, "Is
this the right place? Where are all the lines and the impenetrable crowd in front of the boards, blocking all view of the class cards that stand in red and black profusion?" Unbelievable as it seemed, there were only two cards to be filled out, in comparison to about ten last fall. The only conclusion I can draw is that everyone got in and out so fast that there was no time for confusion. The faculty advisors were calm and helpful in the absence of ten or 15 students clamoring for attention all at once. Not to mention the administration staff who made themselves conveniently available at all times and the speed and efficiency with which the counselors and girls at the tables handled matters. Considering the overwhelming success of the new method of registration, we hope that it will continue to be used in succeeding semesters as the Palomar population continues to grow and warrant its use.
Are Grades Important? By Peggy Biszmaier
Why does a student go to school? ·ro the strain: drinking, racing and often learn or to memorize? fighting. With the present grading system employed by most schools, the answer seems to be memorization. But with the emphasis placed on grades, even this creates two major problems: tension and cheating. Is a grade important enough to justify suicide - as in some instances? Is a grade worth the cheating, individually and collectively, that occurs during tests? The problem is present on the Palomar campus. There is the example of the student who walked from a classroom following the completion of a test and started crying. The problem is also seen by the methods other students use to relieve
·1Became Hooked On Nice By Kathy Hedicke Ultimately one reaches the decision that acceptance, mass media wise, does not necessarily or inevitably mean fulfillment. Each of us must find our niche. We must dig and probe. We must question ourselves relentlessly until our paths are clear. Not long ago I began this searching, this probing. I had to find my niche, my place. But I became a seeker after perfection. DEVELOPED BLOCK I had decided to become an artist, but I soon deve loped an artist block. So I turned my studies to the nurses profession, but I developed a nurses block. So, I took up music, teaching and law, but I developed a music block, a teaching block, and a law block. I was soon at a standstill. I had to ask myself, was I rationalizing? Perhaps I honestly didn't want to do anything. Maybe this was my role, to be good at doing nothing. But I finally decided t hat my problem was that I was over-specializing. So I decided to become a columnist. And suddenly, I'm not blocking anymore. UNFIT RITUAL But now the next obstacle seems to be, what type of columnist will I be? Well, ordinarily I will not attempt to condemn or attack anyt hing. I ask, why must we continually bicker? Why can't we all accept our given roles? I'm

is a start. I feel; however, that certain improvements could and should be made. For instance. To get a cash refund back from the bookstore one merely need present the book and a white receipt with the appropriate price on it. This is not hard to do for an ingenous little crook! He merely need look around on the ground until he finds a receipt with the correct amount on it, or borrow a friends for the same purpose. Now if someone could only figure out a way to put a bind to this type of crook's scheme, a lot of worry and money could be saved. I wonder if any student who has just read this article has any suggestions which might be feasible.? If someone does have .a suggestion he wishes to offer, perhaps he would be kind enough to submit a letter to the editor, or make use ofthe suggestion box located in the ASB office. If we can hit upon an idea that will stop or at least hamper this type of sneak thief, then a great deal of school honor and hurt feelings could be saved.

Guest Editorial Noise And Empty Words By Larry Smith
Last Wednesday the Young Republicans extended an invitation to Young Democrats to help plan the third in the continuing series of political debates - this to be held on February 26th. The previous debates, on P roposition 14 and the Berkeley riots, having been so well received by an interested student body, YR's were anxiously antiCipatmg the three or four debates tentatively scheduled for the spring semester. DEBATE ISSUE Then Friday, word reached the officers of YRs that YDs no longer care to debate the issues with YRs. This naturally leads to a question which concernstheissueinvolved : " Should the right to freedom of speech and press for college students be abridged .. . ?" "If people really believe .. . in the right to learn of all ideas, it seems logical that campus groups will be granted . . . the right to adequate expression of all ideas and viewpoints." NEVER COMES For those to whom these words sound familiar, it is because they were written by
the president of YD's in a recent TELESCOPE editorial entitled, "A bsolute Freedom". Unfortunately for this campus, it seems that YDs have forgotten the most important aspect of freedom - that it never comes without an implied responsibility. The obl igation which comes with freedom is twofold: the first is to exercise the freedom, for as Barlow has said, "The disposition to tyrannize is effectually restrained under the exercise of the equality of rights; " the second part of the obligation is, then, obvious - to exercise the freedom responsibly. NOT EXERCISED We repeat: Young Republicans feel it is unfortunate for this campus that Young Democrats have lost sight of the fact that "the right to freedom of speech and press for college students" may just as easily "be abridged" by the students' failure to exercise it as by the attempts of others to curb it, and that the "right to learn of all ideas" is a bridge d when "the right to expression of all viewpoints"

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR
Book Review
A Problem Of Honesty How honest is the majority of the student body at Palomar? It is a real shame that a question like this should ever have to be raised at an institution of this size and importance. I'm not going to bring up the question of cheating on tests, I'm afraid that that is a necessary evil at any institution of higher learning. Besides, we all rationalize cheating on tests by saying .that we are under tremendous pressure to do well so that we may stay in college and gain knowledge which will help us in our future careers. No, I don't want to bring up cheating. I'd much rather do so, however, since I feel that stealing-is infinitely worse. That's right, stealing. How many of you readers have been the victims of our so-called good college kids who perhaps lifted a book or two from you and turned around and sold it back to the bookstore? Now, I don't say that I'm a criminogist or anything as the sucH; however, I do know that the best prevention for stealing, is a deterrant. The system that the bookstore now has,

There is no denying the impact of Benjamin's painting. Bold color and form smite the eye. The style is often associated with "intellectualism and dehumanization", but here again, the artist is not satisfied with the labels. "I do not consider myself an intellectual. Painting to me is a moral lesson," says Benjamin. PAINTING LIKE LIFE

ABSTRACT ARTIST Karl Benjamin casts shadow
in center of painting reminiscent of large bulls-eye which he calls #18. One of the "Hard Edge" painters, Benjamin considers the two geometrical figures represented in the painting, the circle and the square, as irreconcilables analogous to life situations. "The total contradiction of these two figures represent the challenge of the work," according to the artist.

SISTER MARY CORITA, a very "in" artist, is pictured in front of a silk screen print, one of her works which were on display Friday in the Drama Lab. An art instructor at Immaculate Heart College for Women in Los Angeles, Sister Corita delighted an overflow audience with her descriptions of Los Angeles gas stations as an artist would see them.
photo club Over a dozen students showed up for a meeting of the new campus camera club, Thursday in spite of a mix-up over the meeting date. Some thought the meetings were to be held on Wednesdays. The official meeting date finally decided upon is Tuesday, at 11 a.m. in room F-26. Next Tuesday's agenda will include Nomination of officers and club approval of the constitution. Elections will be held the following week. Vince Streano, President pro-tem, appointed a committee to set up a price list for photographic work to be done under the auspices of the club. Organizations wishing to ha ve prints made, or photos taken, may contact Dennis Anderson, Martha Milligan, or Mary Putnam. Members selected the name "Photo Arts Club" as official designation. A membership drive is now under way. Students interested in color slide photography are welcome as well as those interested in black and white. Justus Ahrend, photo-journalism head and club advisor suggested that members and prospective members bring their lunches to the meeting so that the full hour can be utilized for business.

BIBLICAL ALLUSION
NOT INHIBITING
Sister Corita uses well known advertising phrases, design, and printing in this present collection. Throughout her work there is literary and biblical allusion, used literally in script. Her prints are rather more abstract than that which is considered to be strictly pop art. "Pop is actually a complete return to realism " said Sister Corita in a press conference held after her lecture. "Andy Warhol's Campbell's Soup can is about as realistic as you can get". MARY'S DAY
When asked about the reaction of the Immaculate Heart College Administrator to programs such as that pictured in the film, Sister Corita rema-rked that the Administration is . not an inhibiting factor at alL It is rather the outside interests that get "nervous" when something a little b it different is in the offing. S ister Corita contends that pop artists are very serious about the work that they are doing, but that they do not take themselves seriously. " In a way, they are amused with themselves" says Sister Co r ita.

First on the agenda for discuss ion was the student directory which will be on sale for 10 cents in the book store tomorrow. According to Wilbur, ICC now has 105 signed pledges to give blood to the Palomar Blood Bank. The bloodmobile comes when there are 100 signatures, but ICC is driving for an additionallOO. The date for donations will be set this week and a month's notice will. be given before the bloodmobile comes to campus. The ICC weekly meeting date has been set for Thursday at 11:00 in the ASB office instead of Tuesday. Also mentioned was the Young Republicans' dance and faculty talent show to be held February 27. The entertainment will take place in the student union after the game that night. President of YR's, Bob Hicks said that the faculty has some pretty good acts cooked up for the show.

Did you happen to catch "Sun Up" on TV Thursday. Ross Russell, a student here at Palomar last semester was featured on the program. He discussed his jazz background with Bob Mills. Russell will be teaching a night class on Jazz at Roosevelt Junior High School in Balboa Park as part of the University of California Extension program. Russell is well qualifi ed in the field, having published a book on jazz in 1961.

Getting to know such famous jazz musicians as, Charlie Parker, Erroll Garner, Dizzie Gillespie, Miles Davis, Shorty Rogers and Max Roach was a high point in Russel's jazz education. "My interest in jazz began with collecting records. "And then you wan t to hear the musicians," explained Ross. "I was a collector for ten years, then after World War II, I opened a store in Hollywood called the Tempo Music Shop. Ross really got involved after this. He started recording under his own label called "Dial". Owning a label involves the whole recording process from musicians through the manufacturer and into the record stores.
Ten yea rs of this was enough for Ross so he settled down to ·a more quiet life of recording classical and folk music. Finally he gave up the label and, because he is considered an expert on the Be Bop period of jazz, Ross started writ ing for jazz magazines. He has cont ributed to every serious jazz magazine in the United States. NUMBER HAVE SOLD
Some of Ross' articles from these magazines appear in a jazz analogy called Frontiers of Jazz.

Comet Five Hosts Mesa Tonight Attempt Reversal Of Loss To Southwestern
A Losing Cause?
Cagers Tackle Gross mont In Dome Friday Night
Many Palomar College sports fans have developed a cynical attitude toward the quality of athletic teams produced on the campus in recent years. The poor showing made by Comet gridders and the basketball team thus far this year seems to point toward the fading out of Palomar as a strong athletic college. This is in part due to the rougherthan-ever competition in various sports - the football team ran up against three teams which went on to compete in bowl games, and the basketball squad has been playing the toughest teams in Southern California. Palomar's induction into the brand-new Pacific Southwest League has also been a commanding factor in the slipping-down of the local sports outlook. Therefore, fans who are losing faith in the quality of the Comet athletic .squads might be justified in forming their opinions - but not for long! FRESH FEELING
\
The onslaught of spring and the change-over in sports might create a fresh feeling in the Comet sports program - a winning feeling. The track and baseball teams promise to be the most outstand, ing during recent years. With record numbers of hopefuls turning out for opening workouts for both teams, and solid nuclei from last seaons's teams, the outlook is indeed bright. A lot will depend on the teams the Comets will be facing in the strong Pacific Southwest Conference. It, is possible that the excellence of these teams will go unnoticed (as was the case of football this fall), because of the superior manpower of their opposition. The track team will undoubtedly be stronger than ever. With four school record holders returning among, the 11 lettermen and 50 total candidates, coach Joe Brennan will afford some competition for his conference rivals. Rick Kurtz will be returning with his 6-3 record in the high jump and his 22-10¥2 record in the broad jump. Also returning to the thinclad squad will be Rich Latham who holds the school record in the 100, 9.8 , and the 220, 21.3. However, he can expect some stiff competition from freshmen Dan Starr, Bill Gravelle, and John Skarda who all have recorded identical times over the century. Ramona's Greg Brown is back with his 15.4 school record in the high hurdles, and all-league football player, Dexter Winn, will be trying to advance his 47-1 sho~putrecordthisyea~
NINE RETURNEES
The baseball team boasts nine returning lettermen and a host of high school all-leaguers. The nine returnees include: Dick Castro as catcher, pitchers Dave LeMaster.s and Dennis Vanderheiden, first baseman. Bob Crenshaw, infielder Anthony Requilman, shortshop Mike ghase, and outfielders Bill Jack, Tom Wilbur, and John Ensor. Golf and tennis both have lots of material to work with, and sports gods willing, they will also have teams of excellent calibre. Some of these members of the student body and faculty who tend to look down their noses and scoff at Palomar athletics might do well to attend these spring sports. Then they can laugh with conviction maybe.

The conference grounds are at Monterey and all the colleges in California will be represented. Also, some schools in Hawaii and, Arizona that have WRA programs will attend. The purpose of the confe rence is the better organization of athletic programs under ~he WRA or GAA systems and to discuss methods of promoting more interest in women's sports.

All schools in the conference area will attend the tourney' and schedules for the rest of the season will be set up then. Practice sessions Monday and Wednesday afternoons are going well with the beginnings· of a team taking shape. The forwards are having extra practices for shooting acc uracy and the prospects for a good season are pretty good. All the team members are making a rea l effort to work up an unbeatable team. The general feeling is that we are going to the tournament to win and nothing is going to stop us.
