'Cherry Orchard' cast named; comedy in rehearsal slavement to the insignificant values of another age. Ironically, the only way it can save the values it cherishes -- tradition, affluence, the privileges of the aristorcracy--is to take action which would destroy these values. Sally Fleming will take the female lead as Mme. Lubov the owner of a cherry orchard that has been in her family for generations. Cast opposite her in the male lead is Doug Smith, who plays the merchant Lopahin, the new owner of the orchard. Other members of the cast are Janet McClure as Anya, Mme. Lubov's teenage daughter; Darlene Hendrickson as Varya, an older adopted daughter; Jim Ryan has the role of Mme. Lubov's b rather, Gayev; Dudley Leath will appear as Trofimov, an idealistic, but somewhat co~fused student. Also included in the cast are Jay Carter as the landowner, Pishchik; Christy Howell, as "The Cherry Orchard" depicts Charlotta, a governess who does a passing gneration, imprisoned. magic tricks; and Bill Lehrke, by its sentimental attachment to as Yepihodov, a clerk with more the past, struggling against a new than his share of troubles.

White, has elements of both tragedy and comedy. White says he will direct the work as a comedy, since this was the playwright's stated intention.

Why did Brubeck leave his position as Head of the Composition Department at San Diego State to come to Palomar? "In Palomar:• said Brubeck, "I saw an opportunity to build an outstanding music department. And I had the freedom to do this developing at my own rate, in my own way." During the thirteen years of teaching here and the fourteen years of teaching before he came here, Brubeck formed many ideas regarding an instructional program in humanities. His appointment as Assistant Dean of Instruction, has given him the opportunity to work with the humaDities departments and realize his plans. "1 have always been interested in the humanities," said Brubeck. "In my new position, I hope to help the department to organize and pool their resources to maintain and expand the strong humanities program which has become a tradition at Palomar." ''It has been the philosophy of Palomar College to meet as adequately as facilities and staff permit, the needs of students in our area,'' said Brubeck. ''It is my goal to insure, in the divisions, continuance of these goals upon which the college as a whole is based.''

Auto building planned for 1966 Through the addition of new facilities, faculty, and the resulting increase in enrollment, Palomar's automotive mechanics program is preparing to undergo an abrupt expansion. The present plans are the second phase in the development of the auto mechanics program. For some years Palomar's studentmechanics have used the facilities of Escondido High School. In the fall of 1965 Palomar's auto mechanics classes began using part of the industrial technology building, at the north end of the campus. Twenty - five students were enrolled. In October plans for the new auto buildi~g were formulated when funds from the California Bond Issue of 1964 were made available. Subsequently, the State of California approved the plans and provided two-thirds of the financing. The remaining third of $91 ,000 was raised by Palomar College. The building bears a total price tag of $277,000. $155,000ofthisisfor , 'construction and $4 7, 000 for equipment. The auto building will be located north of the engineering building above the north parking lot with access to the road. The auto building will be completely equipped to turn out mechanics competent in every phase of their work. Not only will they be able to study engine tune-up, electrical systems, body repairs, but also engine rebuilding. Classrooms will also be included in the building and it will be able to accomodate more than a dozen vechicles in it's 8,900 square feet of floor area. The acquisition of a new physical plant is matched with detailed planning and preparation for the greatly enlargedprogram.

Circle K Queen goes to sea Carolyn Clark was unanimously selected by Circle K members as their February Sweetheart. Miss Clark, a 19 year old sophomore, sailed last Thursday on the M. · S, Seven Seas, the floating campus of Chapman College's Seven Seas Division. She will spend three months on an educational voyage around the world. The Seven Seas program combines a full semester of college study with the experiences of world travel. Classes are held six days a week while the ship is traveling between ports of call. Field trips include both general o r i entation and specialized course excursions in er.ch country visited.

During the past three semesters Miss Clark has been active in many campus activities . She served as co-chairmanofthe 1965 AWS Fashion Show, a delegate to two California Junior College Student Government Association Conferences, and was 1965 Homecoming Chairman. She served as ASB Vice President and chairman of Inter Club Council last semester. Upon her return to the u.s., Miss Clark plans to obtain a BA degree and elementary teaching credentials at San Jose State. Her major is social science. When told of the selection as Sweetheart, she could only gasp, "Me, a Sweetheart!" Kim Brown, Circle K President stated, "Carolyn's part in the ASB as vice-president shows that she is interested in Palomar. She was the first coed to be elected to the position and under her supervision the ICC functioned in a way which did credit to her leadership abilities. We all wish her the best of luck this semester on the Seven Seas."

International Relations" was the general theme of Friday's humanities lecture given by Dr; Ross Berkes of the University of Southern California. Dr. Berkes' objective was to discuss the emerging societies of Africa and the effort of the negro to overcome the overwhelming odds facing him. Dr. Berkes first beca me involved in African affairs last summer when he was teaching at the National War College in Washington, D.C. Through this position he was able to contact the best experts on African affairs, finding "strangely, quite a few of them in California," he commented, was a surprise to him. He contacted two lecturers from California and several from other states, feeling that he had brought many great speakers to the American War College. At the end of the session the group went on an overseas mission. Dr. Berkes chose to travel through Viet Nam, but several went to Africa upon their return. Dr. Berkes was very interested in hearing the impressions of Africa. Speeches were delivered by the travelers in team form, and Dr. Berkes was surprised that their impressions were very Continued of page 3.

Publi~on

produced on Palomar press A unique anthology is just off the press for Jack c. Quintero's three unit course in Classical Mythology. Quintero has gather together, apparently for the first time, English and American poems whose themes are based on classical myths. An exhaustive search in the library and in publisher's catalogues indicates that no such work exists, Quintero stated. Comprising one part of the material for the three unit course, the annotated anthology provides concrete evidence of the profound influence of classical mythology on poets since Chaucer. Ex amp I e s range through Yeats, Graves, Browning, Swift, Hunt, Wharton, Pound, Frost, and many others. The works containing mythological allusions, presenting only poems which embody as their theme ideas and events of classical mythology. A newcomer to Palomar this year, Quintero is unusuallyqualified to teach the course because of a strong background in the classics, affirmed Richard F. Norlin, English Department head. The anthology, Norlin added, is the first major publication to be completely produced by the graphic arts department here. The book, Classical Myth..!!! English Poetry is on sale at the Palomar book store.

COMMENTARY

Bob Hicks

for

Need

You will recall that last semester, in an article concerning the Philosophy of Student Government. I noted that one of the primary purposes of the student council is to provide a training ground for interested and active students. This semester, I find our system of government unable to satisfy that purpose. The structure of the Executive Council is simply insufficient to absorb the number of students wishing to participate. More students are requesting jobs than there are positions on the Council to be filled. Hence, interested students must necessarily be left out.

change?

However, we have an alternative to this upsetting plan of subdivision. As enrollment increases, every school finds it necessary to adopt something similar to the senate-type student government. Under this plan, the Senate (legislative coucnil) is separate from the executive office of the president. The duties of the Senate are to make policy. The responsibilities of the executive are to carry out those policies. Hence, the president's primary joh is to coordinate committees. He is not obligated to planning agendas, chairing council sessions, or any amount of the other busy work that goes into the organization of an Executive Council. He can organize and operate a larger number of committees without the need of dividing and confusing the overall system.

WILLING STLElENTS It is important to realize that there

are many more students who are willing and active than just those relative few who campaigned for an elective position. For any number of reasons-timidity, inexperience in public speaking, or just because of the immense labors and time involved--many responsible and enthusiastic students do not run for an office but wish to participate from 'behind the scenes.' These students are valuable and must not be discouraged from activities, i.e., there should be a position within the structure of the government to meet the needs of the student. To convey the idea in another way, student government must grow with the increasing number of students wishing to participate. Under the present Executive Council system, the only way to satisfy this need is bycreatingmore committees. As the numher of committees increases, the amount of coordination hy the Executive also increases. Soon, it becomes much too burdensome for one coordinator and must be divided--and then subdivided-and, eventually, again subdivided. The consequence of such growth is the development of a huge, bureaucratic structure, chaotic ·and uncontrolable.

arated from the Executive, can work effectively as a larger body than the council is now. It elects its own chairman and recorder, and provides within itself more positions to be filled. Thus, more students can participate, not only in the broadened scope of the Executive, but also as direct representatives of the Associated Students.

For us to realize the growing problem of the effectiveness of our student government is of great value to future students at Palomar. By investigating the feasibility of Senate government now we may increase the efficiency of the stude nt government for years to come. Such a need is evident and the challenge is ours .

lovers

"Roses are red, . Violets are fine, so won't you be my Valentine?" Messages similar to this one will be given by millions of people today to express sentiment, love or friendship . St. Valentine's Day, known to Americans as a day to send cards, give flowers, or surprise someone with a box of candy is complex in its history. There are conflicting ideas about the origin of St. Valentine's Day. This probably is because there were e ight men with the name Valentine, according to the Acta Sanctorum. Seven of these eight had their feast days on February 14. Of these eight Valentines there were two who, according to legend, suffered martyrdom. Supposedly one Valentine was a Roman priest persecuted by the emperor Claudius for secretly marrying couples against the ruling of the wicked emperor. A bishop who was seized for helping some Christians was supposed to have cured a jailer's daughter of blindness. Anotherversionofthe story is that Valentine fell in love with the jailer• s daughter and sent her le tters, signed "From Your Valentine. " This might have been th,e origin for what became a Christian holiday and a tradition of exchanging love messages or friendship cards. Nevertheless, St. Valentine emerged as the patron saint of lovers and to this day St. Valentine's Day is associated with romance and friendship.

BELLS, BEllS, BELLS LAURIPURKERSON Lauri Purkerson: "I think there should be a juke box to overcome the piped music they have in the student union now."

The administrative council has decided to keep the bells but they will be toned town. They will be kept until something better, like a carillion, can be installed.

A poll, taken by ASB Representative-at-Large Pat McArdle, has shown that 90% of the 120 students asked are in favor of a juke box for the snack bar. The proposed juke box will cost the school nothing, according to Miss McArdle. Two music companies, California Venders and General Music, have been considered. The profits from the juke box will be divided by the college and the music company it selects. Neighboring Mira Costa College recently renewed its contract with General Music. • A list suggesting records will be sent to the record company

Tracking down a juke box by KAT HY P HIL LIPS With all this talk about juke boxes, there is still another pr oblem stirring (but it bubbles over at the e nd of this). While getting opinions for the student commentary on juke boxes one indi vidual had the nerve to ask-- "What' s a juke box?" ''Everybody knows what a juke box is,' ' I replied rather sarcastically, "it's a glass cage with records in it and you put some coins in the slot , push a couple of buttons, a little light goes on, finds the r ecord, fl ops it on the turntable and ... " "No, that• s not what I mean," he interrupted, "I mean what' s a juke? Where did the word originate?" Mmph. He had me stumpe d. I did not know. Well, that could be solved. I walked to the libr a r y a nd casually · looked up the word "juke." It wasn't the r e . I wandered back to the journalism room to consult the wise old owl. He wasn't the r e. Being somewhat di sturbed, I asked a few people if they knew what this mysterious word meant. No answers. Someone suggested looking up the word in a slang dictionar y. With this new clue (which I secr etly thought was the answer) I walked back to the library and asked the libr a rian for the s lang dictionary. "It was stolen a few weeks ago," was he r reply. I was perplexed . Sure ly there was a n answer somewhere. I searched the card catalogs ·and came up with some

English books that m ight have the answe r . Afte r thumbing through several encyclopedias and Engli sh texts, I decided there was no such wor d. Then I saw a light; it shone on Webste r's Unabridged Dictionary. Might as well give it a t ry. I flipped through the pages and there it was: Juke--to bend or jerk; as the he a :I. By now I had stirred up some interest around me and had acquired an accompaniment to help me solve this p r obing task. " Etomology," he said , "why didn't we think of it before?" "Why of course.'' Finding several books on etomology, we sat down and ended our search. Accor ding to the Dictionary of Wor d and P hrase Origins, hy William and Mary Morris, page 202, a juke, "is or iginally an African word and moreover refers ultimately to seXj.lal activity and excitement, hence to excitant music. The ea r liest juke boxes actually we r e known as 'jook organs' and were coin operated devices which produced sounds like those heard from hurdy- gurdies or barrel organs. They took their names from the 'jooks' which the dictionaries politel y label 'unsavory resorts'." T his priceless knowledge appears to be well worth all the effort. Actually, the whole episode, now that I think about it, seems sort of s illy. But now when someone asks me what a juke box is, I can tell them.

Library certificate program arotres There are seven colleges in California that have a Library Certificate P r ogr am . Palomar is one of these colleges. The certificate program was designed to fill the need for tra ined c le rical worker s in the libra ries ofthe are a, and to give students in this field a formal certificate of proficiency.
