Volume 19, Number 12

Never before in the history of Palomar College has a husband and wife team appeared on stage in a dramatic production, according to Virgil Bergman, dean of instruction. Ethel and Darrell Doliber of Vista, cast as Elizabeth and John Proctor in "The Crucible," have found advantages in working together as man and wife on stage. ''I know how she will react as a wife--how she feels as Elizabeth," explained Doliber in reference to hi,s wife. "And after each rehearsal we have discussed the play to gain better insight into our, and othercharacterizations," he continued. Parents of a two-year old daughter, Wendy, the Dolibers met at Vista High School in the late '50's. However, it was theatre that brought them together when Nor-San Players produced "Bus Stop" with the Dolibers in leading roles. "Now that we are married we're more critical of each other and so we try to give better performances," disclosed Mrs. Doliber. Employed at Hughes Aircraft in Oceanside, Doliber is senior tester of

AGS cookie sale Proceeds from a cookie sale tomorrow will go toward the Alpha Gamma Sigma Scholarship Fund. The cookies will be sold in packages of three each in the student union, the patio, and in the parking lots. Trays of cookies will al so be taken through several buildings. At the last meeting , Del Porter, counselor, spoke to the club about scholarships. He said that many scholarships go untaken each year simply because students do not apply for them. There are some scholarships with special r equirements, such as residence in a certain area, but the majority of them have only requirements of scholarship and need.

Spring registration begun Registration for the spring semester is now underway for fall semester students . Thursday the Student Personnel Office started giving registration materials to ASB card holders and yesterday students met with their faculty advisors to have their study programs checked. The Student Personnel Office will continue giving out registratio:J. materials up to and after the holidays. It started making counseling appointments yesterday. Students may make appointments as soon as they have their study programs approved by their faculty advisors. The new registration p r o gram simplifies the process offirst-time registration that all students went through in the

fall. The new process is to obtain registration materials from Norrine Gearhart in the Student Personnel Office by presenting your ASB card, fill out a stu• dy program after checking the College catalog for requirements, consult your faculty advisor and then make an appointment for counseling. After counseling, report to the check-out station which will be in the hall by the Student Personnel Office. From there your registration is processed. New students must go through the long procedure that all current students went through this semester. P lacement tests will be held January 10 and 17. All classes begin·January 31, 1966.

1HE EDITOR AND THE NEWS By CRISTA GILLETTE Whether or not to continue the use of class bells will be a question of opinion placed on the next ballot for ASB elections . The vote, howeve r , is not final--just an indicator of student concensus to aid the administration in deciding whether or not to continue the bells. As a result of a faculty poll compiled on November 4, the bells were voted down 33 to 21 with three neutral and 14 not voting. It was mentioned by the accreditation team that Palomar is one of few junior colleges still using bells. The members of that team did not make it a recommendation in their reports that we discontinue the bells; they just questioned their use at Palomar. Students sympathy seems to lie in favor of retaining the bell system. There are a few who feel that without bells, instructors will hold them captive one minute past escape time , and some horrible ill will befall them. Others sincerely feel that instructors do not have enough sense of time or just enough sense to look at the clock, thus causing students to be late to their next class . Alas, only one complaint seems to have any real bearing on the situation, and that is that students will be hard put to know when it is time to go to class afte r lunch--especially if they are in parking lots or other remote places, and without a watch. Also, those 'students with a one or two hour break between

classes wll be placed in a similar situation. While at a student government conference at Grossmont, I believe that membe rs of our delegation will remember hearing chimes or a bell tolled once each hour. Perhaps an ASB committee could investigate the possibility of some such device to replace the blaring, high-schoolish alarm system we now have . What's wrong with being highschoolish? We are a part of the secondary education system in California. But, we are also a college , an institution of decorum and tradition. What could be more out of place than racous bells to begin and end each class--especially when on Tuesdays and Thursdays the bells many times are not coordinated with the time at which classes are begun and concluded. What would happen if bells were discontinued at Palomar? It has been proven that man is reliant upon time and intervals of time for many of the activities he performs. People tested in a town where all clocks, bells, and whistles, were turned off showed that routine was somewhat off schedule . aowever,their biggestproblem was an instability and an evergrowing awareness of man's dependence on time. Nothing this drastic will happen if the bells are turned off here. Perhaps the cessation of their ringing will help some of us to become more independent, more self-reliant, and yes, more punctual.

CURE-ALL FOR APAlHY BY PENNY HILL Every year student apathy reaches a disastrous peak and the great number of school "Spiriteers" inevitably complain about it. But none of them has an explanation or a cure for the aloofness that students develop during the year. I have an explanation and cure that should sufficiently dissolve the problem at hand. Let us take a close look at this "apathy". Webster defines it as impassivity, indifference, lethargy, and sluggishness. It is within these terms that we must determine the kind of degree of Palomar apathy. Impassivity is not the correct synonym for Palomar's apathy because its students are by no m eans impassive . They do not lack emotion and definitely are note serene when discussing a date, party, or similar happening. Indifference als'o enters into this category, but the students also are not indifferent. They do care--about their classes, what the y take and who is in their class and who sits next to them; they have interests and make choices regarding these interests, like who to go out with this weekend or whs.t show to see. Impassivity and indifference are therefore out. Lethargy is next on the list. Morbid drowsiness is not a ture c haracteristic of Palomar students. They may have transient droopiness spells, and even these may be only three hours a week. They are not, however, persistent--they usually dissolve in approximately fifty minutes.

Having covered all the other areas , sluggishness is the only area left, so we must investigate it carefully. Slow in movement and slow to action is how Webster defines it, and it seems to have some weight in our problem: Perhaps it is not that Palomar students don't want to go to certain events or to do certain things; perhaps it is that they are unable to make it to these places quickly enough--they are slow in movement. Decisions are prolonged--t.!'l.ey are slow to action. Solved: That Palomar students are apathetic due to sluggishness . But what causes sluggishness; is there a reliefin sight? Answered: That Iron-Poor-Blood be the viiIan; that Geritol stands be set up across the campus--installed in the vending machines--sold in the student union. Result: That the new Geritol addicts should unite and become super-enthusiasts for school functions . Think of the new situation: students hustling and energetically walking from class to class, none being late, students crowding into meeting halls to hear guest lecturers, students overloading football and basketball stadiums, watching what is happening in the sport event. And in the beginning there was apathy. And the school said, let there be Geritol, and there was, and there was iron-rich-blood, and it was good. And the cheerleaders, the club presidents, and the administration looked upon it with glee, sipping with straws their Geritol. And the campus lived happily forever after, spirit and all.

CLO&E•UP

----

An event in student gove rnment th5 semester has substantiated the fact that the lack of coordinated efforts by all branches of government results in a breakdown of the effectiveness of any one branch. On an issue conce r ning the postings on the campus bulletin board at the entrance of the campus, the , efforts of the Judicial Committee proved futile because of the lack of support by the Executive Council. Early in the semester, I called to the attention of the Publicity Committee the fact that the campus marquis was not being kept up to date-- a duty of that committee. At that time, it had been one week since the Humanities Lecture which had featured Louis Lomax, but the board still posted his name as a 'coming event.' Still another week pas sed, and Lomax was still 'coming.' Again I approached the Publicity Committee and rec.lilived no more satis faction than a nonchalant acknowledgement. My next recourse was to call it to the attention of the ASB President who, supposedly, is the 'executive ' of his appointed committees. Another week passed, and Lomax still graced the board.. QUESTIONS ENTHUSIASM

.JAY CARTER International Club Members of the International Club, numbering 45, are set on following the footsteps of last year's club which won its fourth consecutive ASB award for being the ''outstanding club" in general activities . The club's purposes are twofold. First, the club serves the foreign student, acquainting him with American culture and offering closer contacts with campus life and the outside community. The club also offers help to the foreign student in financial need through its scholarship fund. Complementing the first purpose is the effort to bring American students in contact with foreign students and give them chances to learn of foreign cultures. To these ends not only was the folk concert held, but also the rest of the club's activities, including parties, picnics, and the International Tea. At meetings the club often has films and speakers, such as Roy Archer,

political science instructor, who recently spoke on the American Policy in VietNam. Schools and clubs in the community often ask the club for international speakers, and the foreign students, comprising one third of the club's membership, have managed well in filling speaking requests. International Club officers are President, Dinko Gabelich, (Mexico); Vicepresident, Siavash Salehi, (Persia); Secretary, Frankie Firth; Treasurer, Pat Swanson; Publicity Chairman, Karen Runyon; and ICC Representative, Terry Dunbar. Faculty advisor is Jay Johnson, French instructor. The club's efforts this semester have been the folk concert and the "Pot Pourri Internationale," the annual club banquet, December 11. Part of the earning went to the foreign student's scholarship fund.

-LETTERS TO THE EDilORDear Editor: Have you heard about the new book from campus publications? It is titled "How to Run Student Goverment" and is being written by Crista Gillette. However, before you read this coming classic, consider these questions. Ask what qualifies the editor of the Telescope to criticize the Student Body President when her own position on campus is' so pitifully lacking. Ask what qualifies her to judge the effectiveness of the student council when she herself is a vertiable epitome of inactivity when it comes to council functions. Chris Gillette, the closed-mouth council member who doesn't know Robert's rules from Reader's Digest, slapping student officers, how ridiculous! This semester the Telescope has achieved a new low. Editorials and writing in general are below par for a Palomar publication. Sloppy make-up is reminiscent of a high school monthly. Multitudes of errors in printing and style is a more than obvious problem. Content is virtually niL Potential stories are overlooked, perhaps .ignored. Either there is a problem in getting the information to the paper or the Telescope's editor is so dictatorial as to print only what she damn well pleases. Miss Gillette's editorial on the student council was most unfortunate. She exposed her very rudimentary knowledge of leadership proceedures. Experience has shown that, quite often, more can be accomplished in an atmosphere minus the restrictions of parliamentary proceedure.

The "hurried agenda affair" apparently has our illustrious editor all tied up in knots. What difference does it make if the agenda is made up two days or two minutes before the meeting. It always gets done, and it is always complete. As for content, it is as much the responsibility of the council members to add to the ·agenda and contribute ideas as it is for the chairman to conduct an orderly meeting. Before you embark onanother criticism crusade, Miss Gillette, may I suggest that you clean up your own back yard, before you toss the shovel to your neighbor. Glen E. Bailey, Jr.

_ _ ,_!_

Editor's Note: Perhaps Mr. Bailey is right when he suggests casual observance of parliamentary procedure is best. What could call for more informality than meetings of a student body council which approves each year, and thereafter acts upon a budget of approximately $67, 000? This meeting of approval for the present ASB budget was so informal last spring that newly elected members of the present ASB Council did not even appear. The budget was adopted by the officers of the retiring ASB CounciL One needs only to look at the national executive and legislative branches of our government to see that informality is the key to efficiency. It doesn't take parliamentary procedure to run a nation,so why an ASB Council?

- -- -- - - - - - -

By this time, I was beginnning to question the enthusiasm of the Publicity Committee, notwithstanding my reservations of the president 's effectiveness in coordinating his committees. Further investigation by the Judicial Commmttee into the activities of ''Publicity" not only resubstantiated my earlier doubts; it proved to add to the list of complaints. As a result, four charges were brought against that nominal committee. Judicial review acknowledged the charges and the matter was brought before the Executive CounciL The decision was approved unanimously, but no futher action was proposed. All of the efforts were not completely futile, though there is nothing to thank the Council for. The indictment, itself, was enough of a scare to cause the Publicity Committee to remove the weather-worn Lomax from the board.

HOMECOMING,.,

By this time, it was Homecoming... and that's what was on the board for the next three weeks! Once again I tapped the shoulders of those who are responsible for the upkeep of the board. By what I now considered an irresponsible committee, I was told, "Oh, you mean it's still not up to date ... ?" They had delegated the responsibility to "someone else" and that "someone else" had not taken care of it. Fighting to control myself, I sobbed on the shoulder of the president and received the very amiable reply, ''OK Bob, we'll get that taken care of." Another week passed .. the sign was still not current. PET PEEVE The following Monday morning, I told the Executive Council that the neglect of the bulletin board was becoming a "pet peeve" with me. We all agreed again; and, venturing even further, we realized that "something must be done." As a result, two of the representatives stepped forward and volunteered to keep current events posted on the board. Acknowledging the failure of the Publicity Committee, the Council itself undertook the responsibility of the job. I sighed, and commended the two reps for their "lashing spirits." It was two weeks ago that these ''lashing spirits" took down the Homecoming notice and put the notices of that week's events in its place. Alas, the board has not been changed since. I remember taking my SAT exaiJl.S two weeks ago, but according to the board, the tests are still 'coming' this Saturday.

It seems that Mr. Bailey is also assuming that m e mb e r s of c o u n c iJ should come into power with even a "rudimentary knowledge" of Robert's or Sturgis' or any other source of parliamentary rules. Maybe it would be wise to forget the resolution made at an Area I Stud- LAST EFFORT ent Government ConferThis is a last effort for some action.

Phoenix beats Comets By GLEN BAILEY No doubt it was a nice trip to Phoenix, but Coach Joe Brennan and his cagers never should have left the safety of San Diego County. The Comets walked right into a Bear trap, and were trounced twice last weekend by Phoenix College, 91-67 and 103-64. The double defeat gave the Comets a five win and one loss record on the young season. Palomar won their first game of the season by beating Orange Coast 81- 6 7, after dropping a practice game to the Naval Training Center. Chris Stanley was the big gun for Palomar at Phoenix, collecting 34 points in the two games. Leroy Putnam added a 29 point total, but lack of support from the rest of the team contributed to the Bear's twin killing. . Bill Garrison registered ip the double figure scoring column, collecting 10 points in each game, and Hank Tenney picked up 13 markers in the final contest. The Comets travel to the Chaffey Tournament this week, and in other Christmas vacation action will travel to the Santa Monica tournament the 28 and 29 of December. The annual alumni game will be played December 21 in the Palomar dome. The Comets open conference play January 8 against San Diego City. Forward Chris Stanley holds an early lead in Comet Basketball statistics as the locals prepare for the Chaffey Tournament today through Saturday. The 6' 4" sophomore has netted 83 points in six games for a little bette:JT than a 13 point average. Leroy Putnam is second in the scoring list with 69 tallies. Sophomore letterman and team co-captain, Bill Garrison is a close third with 66 points. All three atheletes are from San Dieguito. Vista's Tom Heckendorn, improving with every game, has accounted for 50 points , and Ron Blickenstaff and Hank Tenney have garnered 38 and 33 points respectively. Stanley also leads the club in rebounding with 81 and is the strength of the club in this department. Following is a

Coach Mack Wiebe's Comets opened the season Friday night by downing Barstow, 28-11 on the losers mats. The following night the grapplers competed in the UCLA Tournament. Although no Palomar wrestlerwon, it was an honor to even compete in the tourney since four-year schools were among the 21 schools entered. Thursday the Palomar matmen will travel to Imperial Valley College in their first Pacific Southwest Conference meet. Inexperience and lack of depth have hindered the Comets, but the squad should win a lot more meets before the season is over. Winners for Palomar Friday were Dave Tibbetts (130), Tom Jones (137) , Butch Callander (152), and Craig McDonald (160). The 115 and 123-pound .divisions were not contested because neigher squad had an entry.

Zoology fiield trip yields many treasures By PENNY HILL San Felipe's annual rainfall is approximately two inches; " ... I think we got all two inches!" reported Dennis Bostic, zoology 1-A instructor. The rain plagued the zqology field trip he and nine students took this weekend. "We followed the storm leaving San Diego and we encounteTed another storm front in San Felipe," Bostic continued. It rained off and on Thursday and through Thursday evening. "Most of the mammal life had become fossorial," because of the rain. The students completed most of the tasks they had set out to do. The bird life was out and the students were unusually lucky to spot a few bald eagles. They alwo observed hawks and gila woodpeckers. White caps appeared in the gulf waters resulting from the strom. Skin diving was almost nil because underwater visibility was about one foot. However, Jim Goeppinger and Joan Ramsower "collected" an eighty pound white sea bass while scuba diving. "And of course, we didn't have a collecting jar big enough," remarked Bostic, so they left it for the Mexicans at San Felipe. The group collected several marine invertebrates including many octupi, kangaroo rats, clams, plants, stingrays, and tide pool scuplins (fish) . Manfred Knaak discovered a species of nocturnal white desert ants while another group of students found a pelican that had been poisoned by a sting ray it had swallowed. The ray

gave birth to young while in the pelican's pouch. Several kitfoxes approached within three feet of the students and one brave fox ate food from the plate of a girl student. Also spotted were grey foxes and coyotes. Not so timid, however, was one shaggy, scroungy dog who joined the group the first night out. They moved their camp Friday, about ten miles away, but the dog trailed them there, too. Bostic nicknamed him 'Foamy' aDd he became the group's mascot.

By DONNA MURDENT The haunting melody of a Yugoslavian flute was only one of 14 types of entertainment at the International Club Banquet Saturday. Red and green streamers and p in e boughs were combined with posters and flags from around the world to give the banquet not only a Christmas airbecause of the different religions of our foreign students-but also an air of international unity. The 250 people that attended the banquet were served SauerbratenfromGermay, Sweet and sour pork from China, Polo Baghali from Persia, Enchiladas from Mexico, green salad. coffee, tea, or Canadian punch, and for dess~rt the International Club members furnished a variety of cookies. The proceeds from the banquet are being made availabe to foreign students through a scholarship fund.

If a road on the route was not completely washed out, it was either impassable or dangerously rutted. But the scout and two travel-alls survived the journey, even the most tre acherous part which was just outside San Marocs--the water was about two feet deep and the engines were nearly flooded. Several students climbed the mountain cliffs with Bostic and found two Indian r ain collecting basins, pottery _ fragments, midden mounds, and evidence of mountain sheep. At the end of the field trip, all of the students wanted to stay; it was a "fantastic experience" for them, commented . Bostic. They were able to better appreciate its adaptibility. The students who pafticipated were Joan Ramsower, Jim Goeppinger, John Smith, Manfred Knaak, Bill Hite, Jay Ahrend, Janet Snelling, Ricky Pawley, and Dennis Roberts.

Also Florence Blodgett Larry Hagan Susan Hartshorn, and Diann Paulson, former Palomar students. WINE SONG A song from Nepal 200 to 300 years old and a listing song from India were performed by Santosh Rana on the harmonica. 411 That's all" concluded Rana smilingly, after a final vocal number. "Since wine has always been import~t in feasting," KamranSimantoubperformed a song about wine on his Persian accordian. •His second addition tO" the program was •A- Southern Russia" or "Northern Persian dancing song." Val Trosich, altnougn ne sperucs very little English, lifted his Yugoslavian flute to his lips and played a slow echoing melody which left no need for words. Torsich plans to attend Palomar next year. SIA PLUCKS SANTOUR

Labor - management representatives presented an inte:t"esting and informative program on apprenticeship opportunities Wednesday, said James G. Soules, coordinator of vocational education at Palomar. The poorly attended symposium cleared up questions and clarified basic aspects of the apprenticeship program. Participants in the pannel were Soules coordinator of vocational education at Palomar; Ray Lieberman, a private building contractor from San Diego; Fred B. Gough, business representative for the San Diego County District Council of Carpenters; Nathan T. Jordan from the Bureau of Apprenticeship U.S. Department of Labor; and Grover C. Ruth, Jr. from the State Department of Industrial Relations , Division of Apprenticeship Standards.

Lieberman commented thatmostofthe supervisors--foremen on the jobs--are apprentice school graduates. These graduates, noted Jordan, are of interest to the Federal government in the defense department for qualified craftsmen are the backbone of industry. Stressed in the discussion was thE. fact that many individuals who apply for employment can not fill out an application properly. The pannel suggested that perhaps the schools should place emphasis on teaching application procedures--filling out forms and especially personal appearance . Students who are interested in obtaining additional information on the apprentice program or who are interested in applying may meet with Soules in his office in the administration building at any time.

Cecilia Vargas, who is now trying out for the San Diego Ballet, danced to fast Spanish dances, "Espana Cani"and "Bose de Granada." Miss Vargas is a former Palomar student. Representing the United States, Steve Jackson, Sophomore, sang three folk songs. Jackson writes some of his own songs. The strings of a native Uranian instrument, the Santour, were plucked by Siavash Salehi. The Santour contains 96 strings and was made for Salehi by his brother. DINKO ON GUITAR Bowed intently over his guitar, Dinko Gabelich, President of the International Club, contributed •Flamenco Encantado." Gabelich plans to return to Mexico for the spring semester. Rosalie Atilano, Freshman, performed aSpanish dance, "Orgullo Bolamenco", and did imitations on two Spanish songs. WORLD PEACE The program was climaxed in the last act as Miss Atilano's slip sank to the floor and Dinko Gabelich gallantly bore it off stage so the dance could be continued. "If everyone could get along as well as our International Club does then we would have peace in the world soon," sincerely commented Sheldon Walker, Master of Ceremonies. The committee chairman for the banquet included: Todd Baker, general and program c hairman; Pat Swanson, tickets; Barbara Sanderson, decorations; Anne Tuthill, set-up; Sia Salehi, reception; Terry Dunba-r, Serving and Dessert; Franke Firth, International room; and Karen Runyon, publicity.
