Spring formal planned for May Spring has sprung; the grass has riz; I wonder where the dance is. Since spring hasn't sprung yet, the dance isn't until Saturday, ·May 7, from, 9:00 to 1:00. A tentative place for the spring formal is Coffee Dan's Commodore Room in Oceanside, but according to Kay Rex, chairman of the dance committee, other places are still being considered, especially charter boats in i\Iission Bay. Committee Chairmen include: Carol , Tilley and Paula Sprague. decorations; Patty Hunt, bids; and Carole Olson, publicity. Anyone interested in helping with the spring formal should contact Kay Rex.

Bradley Smith, author-photographer, will lecture Friday on "Photography: The State of the Art." The lecture will be held in P-32 at ll:OO a.m. His photography is now on exhibit in ~he main library until March ll. Famous personalities are not

the major reason for having these individuals at Palomar, but, rather, for the contribution their knowledge and experience can h ring to the students and the community. "We are grateful for their (the artist's) contributions to what we hope will be not only the dedication of our facilitie s on this campus," said Brubeck, "But also a dedication of the spirit wftich is expressed through the Fine Arts."

Smith lectures on art photography Bradley Smith, author-photographer, will speak Friday on the arts of photography. The meeting will be held in room P-32 at 11:00 a.m. The library is displaying some of Smith's works; featuring color proofs from his book on the Caribbean, ESCAPE TO THE WEST INDIES. Also on display are still photographs from the movie HUD, a color series on wine and a proof sheet appearing on the cover of LIF:E magazine. Smith is president of Gemini Incorporation, publishes and is consulting editor for Simon and Schuster. He has been both a writer and photographer for LIFE magazine. Over a period of 20 years, he produced a series of color essays for LIFE. Prior to this work he was Associate Editor of LOOK magazine. Books that Smith has written and photographed include: ESCAPE TO THE WEST INDIES, CO,LUMBUS IN THE NEW WORLD, and JAPAN: A HISTORY IN ART.

Seventy-five letters have been sent to California colleges and jr. colleges for their opinion in this matter. So far seven have replied. :-\11 answers have been favorable except one who' thought it against the law for jr. colleges to put up signs on public highways. :\ letter has been sent to the State Division of Highways requesting that signs be put up in two areas; between highways 78 and 395, and at Rancho Santa Fe and highway 78. The letter also states that Palomar would be willing to pay for the signs . As of yet a reply has not been received.

AtJthentic Polynesian artifacts on qisplay An authentic Polynesian bra is in the artifacts display in the hall of the "P" building, according to Abraham Gruber, Anthropology instructor at Palomar. He has set up a display containg many Polynesian objects of both mode rn and the pre-contact

period before European civilization came to the islands . The artifacts were borrowed from the Los Angeles County Museum, and are valued at $750. Gruber is a personal friend of the museum's curator and was able to obtain the display for a three month period.

Among other objects is a Samoan neck rest which , the Samoans claim is far more comfortable than using a western style pillow. To an American, however, it looks very austere. Also, a Tahitian dance skirt from the famous island of BoraBora is featured.

ON THE BOOKSHELF "The Carpetbaggers" By SU:I./\NNE K/\MMEHEH

This is a review of the hook the CARPETI1/\GGEHS l>y Harold Hobbins. This popular book. over 5 . 000,000 copies solei. exposes the lives of many people, their lives of sin ancl success. "The Carpetbaggers strode the dusty roads and streets of the exhausted Southlands, their mouths tightening greedily, their eyes everywhere, searching, calculating, appraising the values that were left behind in the holocaust of war. ... Yet not all of them were had, just as not all men are had. Some of them even learned to love the land they came to plunder and stayed and hecame respected citizens." This was .Jonas Cord .Jr. In 1925. :\ rtc I' his father .Jonas Cord Sr. died, .Jonas ~ook over as head of Cord Explosives. With ruthless amiJition. proclcled on IJy the memory of his harsh ancl introverted father . .Jonas IJuilt a financial cmpi rc. His friends beca me alien to him. He tol e rateci them only so long as he found a use for them . Once that purpose was se rve d he woulci withdraw again into hi s self-made and lonely worlrl. In their sea rc h for sex. wealth and power, .Jonas and the other· characters in the hook played by onl~• on<' rule : always take more than you receive. There was !Una :\larlowe , the girl Jonas took home to marry only to have her marry hi s fa ther for the ins tant wea lth and security only he could give he r without the sexual relations s he had learne d to fear.

Nevada Smith, a man who hli,d killed the three men who had tortured his father to death and raped and mutilated his Indian mother. was hired as a mother, teacher and' general handyman to .J onas .Jr. Then .Jonas .Jr. took over Corel Explosives and went out on his own for the first time in his life. Nevada cleclded .Jonas didn't ne ed him to wet-nurse him any more so he left leaving this note and his shares in Cord Explosives to .Jonas. "I ain't much of a man for goorl-bys. so this is it. There ain't nothing any more for me to do around he r c so I figure it's time I went. All my life I wanted to give you something for you:r: birthday but your pappy always beat me to it.

READER COMMENTARY

l Dear Ectitor. I was s hocked b~· the recent artic le about the ·Young RepuiJlicans . on the front pa ge of ~-our las t issue . I found the author had mis quotert anci misinterpre ted many of m ~· statements . I was also s hockeci to r·eart tha t in :\!iss Jack' s opinion we had backed "a Jess radical man·' for C. Y. R, president. Knowing l\Ir. !:-'p rinkel. who we s upported. I took this as an insult in that it impli ed that he is a radical man. This is far from the case. \Ve backed :\lr. Sp r inkel because we wante d to get away from the radical te ndenc ie s of 1\1 r . Djordjewi c h. Whe n I s ta ted that "I don't see whe r e it applies to the s ubject at hand ," in r efe r ence to the J ohn Birch Societv. r was r e fe ring to the situation at• Palomar. Since the reporter was doing a r eport on the Palomar Young Republicans, I thought that this was what s he wanted to know. Of course the J.B.S.is an issue statewide and i s one of the reasons for our separation from C.Y.R. In one case a direct quote

was macll' us ing a word that I know I did not say. \\'he n a r·eporter makes a direct quote he bet te r IJe able to prove thi s was actually said I'm s ure that an~· reporter who \\'OU!ci make a quote and suppl~· hi s own words in it. would not ha\-e a job long with any major ne ws paper. I hope tha t in the future this type of " r eporting" will not happen again . This appeared to ·be an important article for the Telescope, judging from the position on the front page . If an article is thi s important. s omeone s hould check the facts out with the parties involved, ins tead of le tting the reporter assume the priviledge of inte rp ret ing a nd quoting the way he wants . I s ince rely hope that in the future e ithe r" competent r eporters will cover the story or that perhaps the unprinted copy could be proof r ead by the person involved. After all reporters are there to r eport not interpret the facts. Sincerely, Thomas E. J enkins President of Palomar College Y.R. 's

Lately the favorite topics of discussion on campus have been the Viet Nam war and the draft. On February 21 The Telescgpe ran the draft story as number one and complemented it with a photo, a cartoon and even an editorial. Congratulations are very much in order to the writers. No doubt the news media will continue to douse us with news and opinion about the war and the draft. as is their function. Presumeably THE TELESCOPE will continue to inform its readers of further developments and keep on probing student opinion conc e rning those now veritably omnipresent inOue nces in the lives of all Palomar students, hut you are petitioned to listen to a quiet voice that would try to offer a little perspective to help wade through all the noise and anxiety. The dehate on the war is a tired and worn one, the opposingpoints of view each have their merits. Basicall y, t he attitudes of hoth the pac ifists and the pro-war people are obvious, understancla!Jle (though in g r eat parts irrational in their most extreme variations) and can hardly he condemned . .Judgm e nt should not be passed on ·either of these points of view. War is a fact of life . just as death is and to the

young man, especially the student, it is not one for him to struggle with since he cannot hope to change it. Should he not, instead, pursue the things he can? Continue his personal life, his studies? The prospect of being sucked into the carnage and chaos of war should be a tremendous incentive to live life while one can. In the interim before serving in the military is the opportunity to make. the 1ife one may · have abruptly interrupted forever as worthy as the next man's. That period of grace is the chance to live as one (one, the ubiquitous draft candidate) may never be able to again, whether he survives or not. Perhaps this is preaching the obvious, but if it is, that is very good; still this e'd itorial will not he wasted because it does seem that this kind of perspe<;tive and unde rstanding can help us refute inflammatory and confused ideas, discourage us from unwarrantedly attacking differing political views, and encourage us to question our own. Above all, this editorial is intended to persuade people to observe opinions and further developments more rationally and to cease attacking the opposition as cowardly traitors .

How do you feel about classroom cheating and what do you think teachers can do to avert it , "I don't think very muchofclassroon:r c heating. but I don't know

what a teacher can do to avert it. If someone is in a hind you're not going to s top them from cheating. You can have an iron hand, hut students resent teache r s peeking over the ir shoulders. \\'e shou ld have nODGEH STL\nTour own moral control." "I clon't feel it's a teacher's problem; it's more the s tudents problem . If the student cheats, he' s just hurting himself and not anyone else. rr it we r e junior high or high school the t eac h ers could probably force you to stop c heating, but up in college it's up toyour T EnnY nEIL\:--.'D own self. The student's jus t c heating himself."

"I think teachers s houlcln't be so liberal. They s houldn't leave c lass and leave the students a 1 o n e. They're not ' learning anything. You don't retain anything when you c heat. I don't see why st u den t s s hould cheat anyway, it's better to st ud y and FRED JENKINS le arn."

"I think it's wrong because it's not a fair measure of astudent's ability. I don't think there's too much a teacher can do except warn students against it and then punish them for it. I think an automatic F when he's caught for any kind of cheating is all a teacher D:\ VID \V EFLEl\' can do to any st udent caught using someone e lse's work." "That' s up to the individual. If he wants to c heat that's his problem. If he wants to c hea~let him. I don't think he'll learn by c he a t i n g. He can't go through life c heating ---he 'll find he's going to have to think for himself. I don't think there is anything a teacher can Y \ . 0 :-\~ E BRET do because it's up to the individual student.'' "I don't think it's right to cheat, but there's always cheating. There's nopossibleway to stopit. I think that if a student is caught cheating the teache r should dismi ss him. If the te acher tries to stop the cheating he's going to have to go over the test word by word. " ED STUART

It is time to direct our attention t o the ASB budget. As you know, it is the duty of the Council to allocate the funds to the various departments for the following year. This year the budget exceeds $70,000. I believe that the mere statement ofthis amount is sufficient to call to mind what a job the Council has before it. Because we seldom deal with money in such large \sums, it is necessary for our Council to adjust their thoughts accordingly. Today, I hope to 'set the mood' , i.e., to investigate the mos t common pitfall ofthose entrusted with great amounts of money. The problem is one of perspective- of realizing that smaller amounts of money retain their value even in view of the overwhelming total of the budget. Just this past week at the Area I Student Government Conference, I was extremely disconcerted and frustrated to find that that delegation of students permitted the real value of their money to be overshadowed by the deceptivel y large total fund of

money which was available. They were willingto spe nd $100o:t\$200 with little or no consider ation. I doubt vers much that they would even think of doing the samewith their own money, but in this case the amount seemed incidental in terms of a $25,000 budget. The context from which one extracts money is really of no significance to the value. Whether I choose to spend a pime from a whole wheelbarrow of"dimes or from a collection of five dimes is of no concern. The fact remains that in either case the t rue value of the dime is ten cents. Monetary value does not change within the particufar context and, likewise, neither should the concept of money change with that person entrusted with the funds. Realizing this tendency to become mesmerized by inconceiveable sums of money, our Council must use judgement in appropriating the ASB budget. It is, after all, our money. The ASB Council should spend it with that in mind.

Movie review

Su~penseful

spy stuff By JUDY JACK

The technicolor glamour and tricky gimicks of the modern spy film enhanced by the suaveness of an 007 and a plush decor of exotic settings has taken the country by storm. The latest follow-up is a mad entourage of Bat- man fans. Fortunately for those who like honest visualization of spy work in realistic form, author John Carre wrote a masterpiece of suspenseful spy stuff called "The Spy Who Came in From the Cold.'' Producer-director Martin Ritt has deftly transformed the novel into celluloid footage of the highest quality. It is probably the greatest thriller of high intensity and subtle nuance filmed in the last decade. Paramount Pictures has produced an artistic wo rk of cinematic art in its portrayal of an English Esoionage agent called upon to do one last major assignment before retiring to a desk job after 19 years of service. Actor Richard Burton plays the character of Alec Leamas, British intelligence agent. The British control has devised a very intricate scheme to discredit the East German intelligence leader Mundt, portrayed by Peter Van Eyck, by using Leamas as a ploy to be inveigled to the Communist side by becoming adefector.Control primes Leamas as a ready target for the East Germans by making him appear seedy, embittered and resorting todrunken· ness, brawling and debauchery. The East-Germans fall sway to plan and the next step is to get Mundt's assistant, a driving ambitiQUS Communist Jew who resents Mundt's background of Nazi affiliation and his present power of command, to suspect Mundt as a double agent. To unveil the plot further would be wholly unfair to the audience. One must listen attentively to the unfolding of the plot which twists and turns unexpectedly with complic ated events and several COU!Jter plots. It is a chilling game of wits which challenges the viewer's perceptiveness and steels his nerves. The story starts out s lowly but gains momentum midway and spirals tq a c limax of sheerest intensity. I ""'1e cameraman Oswald Mor-

ris has done a splendid job of capturing an oppressive feeling of inevitability and bleakness by his canny lens which catches the starkness of European scenes and the flickering, taut emotions that cross the players' faces in scrutable close- ups . Musician Saul Kaplan must be praised for UP · derplaying the musical score' so t hat its bare perceptibility adds to the tenor of the film's chilly aura, rather than detract as so many do. Richard Burton delivers what is very likely the best perform- · ance of his career. f•Unlike his usual theatrical histrionics, that are fine for live Shakespearean productions but too powerful for the intimacy of the screen, Burton is superbly believable in his style of skillful restraint which rings with precision and amazing timing. One hopes he will continue to use such economy in future endeavors. If the aspects of personality and notoriety do not enter in, the Welshman should deservedly win the Academy Award accolade in April. An actor who is finally receiving the recognition which he merits for his superior wielding of thespian tools is Oskar Werner. Nomihated for his leading r ole in "Ship of Fools," he is excellent in the short, but demanding charcterization of the aspiring Fiedler of vengeful i ntent , The cold austerity of "The Spy Who Came in F rom the Cold" boldly catches viewers up short as they're called upon to look truthfully at the hard c ruel game of life and death that is espionage . The devious maneuvering of men and women into situations beyond their control by State intelligence workers, who leave compassion and care of the individual out of their activities, is grossly shocking. It is a penetrating look into something whic h we haven't given much consideration to latel y. The movie now showing at the Cinema Grossmont surpasses such works as " Bridge on the River Kwai" and "The Guns of Navarrone" for excitement and provocation.

Women rough zn loss to Mesa

over Fullerlon Hornets

Monday March 7, 1966 Page 3

f

Coach Cecil McGehee's Comet ''Batmen", made the most of three hits in collecting its fourth victory ofthe season over Fullerton pitchers Ray Huett, Matt Taylor and Mike Potter cornoined to hold the losers to five hits. Huett, the starter, pitched a two-hit shutout over the first seven innings, when the Hornets carne across with an unearned run and filled the bases with two out. Taylor, in the ninth fi•a.me, got in trouble, giving up a ron, a walk, and two singles. From the buHoen carne Potter, with two, out; runners on second and third, and an 0-and-1 count on the batter, whom he quickly fanned to end the game. The win evened Huett's record at 1-1. He was beaten last Friday by Riverside City College. With good pitching, Huett worked himself out of countless pridicaments in the innings he worked. Fullerton had 17 base runners against him, but scored only once. TWO ERRORS "Ray was tough when it counted, ed" McGehee commented . "If we hadn't gotten him into trouble with two eighth-inning errors, he might have gone all the way." Palomar led off with a 1-0 lead in the bottom of the first inning. Shortstop Hank Tenney drew a hase on halls and for the sixth and seventh time in nine games, he swiped second hase and then third . With one out, Huett and Rich Z inniger. the left fielder, walked to load the bases. Tenney scored on a wild pitch as Huett and

Zinniger wentto third and second. first baseman Mike Wexler grounded to the shortstop, and right fielder Torn Heckendorn flied out to the second baseman to end the inning. REINCARNATION In the fourth frame, Wexler singled and went to second on Heckendorn's sacrifice bunt, was left stranded nevertheless. Third baseman Terry O'Dell died on second in the next inning after gaining life on an error and advancing on second baseman Dennis Crutcher's sacrifice. The Comets scored their last two runs in the last half of the sixth. Huett and Zinniger started pff the inning with back-to-back singles· into left and centerfield. A wild pitch advanced both runners. Wexler's suicide squeeze bunt, scoring Huett as the pitch was delivered to the plate, arrived too late. Zinninger went to third on Heckendorn's second sacrifice bunt of the game. Center Fielder Wayne Rucker followed b~ flying deep to right, allowing Zinninger to come home. O'Dell, meeting the ball sohdly, rifled a shot to the right fielder for the third out. Palomar failed to come up with more runs in the remaining two innings. Fullerton is expected to win the Eastern Conference title this year. which gives Palomar a good chance to come up with a fine record this season.

INVESTIGATE IN FIELD Dennis Bostic, life science instructor, is acting as advisor to three students: Bill Hite, Mike Smith and David Lindgren. He is directing their activities toward original investigations in the field a nd lab, dealing with a study of reptiles inhabiting a chaparral enviornment. · SURVEY LAND Last summer, Bostic and two engineering students surveyed and laid out an area 800 by 600 feet behind the maintenance building on the upper campus. THOROUGH CHECK

Wheeling around the corner and up the backstretch of the music barracks, the car, piledhighwith trombones, tuba and french horn screeched to a stop in front of a pile of ashes and chunks· of smashed plaster. What happened to the m•1sic department during the Christmas holidays? MOVE IN TWO WEEKS It was during these two weeks of vacation that a majority of the moving of the music department was made, even though there had been minor moves all during the completion of the new Fine Arts buildings. Everything was moved out and a match set to one of the last of the old barracks , alias band room and piano practice rooms. EXPERIMENTAL TOOT January 3 was officially· the first day of classes in the new music buildings. T hebandmembers tooted a few experimental notes and listened, cringing as the notes muddled together and bounced back to the performers in the form of one big •blah." MELLOW TONES Since that memorable day accoustical tile has been placed on one wan thus absorbing some of the loose sound waves and mellowing the musical tones. Scarlet draperies were hung on another wall and they absorbed

even more of the echoing notes as did the green wall-to-wall carpeting. PIPE ORGAN ARRIVES

ing. These will be used in the piano cl asses and harmony and any other classes where it is a great asset to have a piano key board in front of the student. VARIOUS INSTRUMENTS

The second of the three large music rooms is th~ choral-lecture room with its green carpet and plush blue padded chairs and new Wicks Pipe Organ. This pipe organ arrived last Thurs day from Illonois and is presently being wired and the pipes installed. The organ has five sets of pipes with ninety pipes in each set. HAND-CRAFTED ORGAN

The last of the larger rooms is a general classroom with piano and various other small musical instruments such as autoharp and record player. This room is used for, Elementary Classroom Music class. MORE PRACTICE ROOMS

"This is one of the most beautifully crafted organs." said Howard Brubeck, head of the Humanities Division. "I visited the factory where it was made and hand finished. The method of making these pipes has not changed in the last 1,000 years," he said. "We hope to have it ope rating in time for the opening of the Fine Arts Dedication."

In addition to these classrooms there are twenty practice rooms available to students to .practice either the piano or organ. One room contains an Allen I;:lectric Organ, another a Spinet Home Organ, four more hold Wurlitzer Electric Pianos with tape recorders, two rooms house twin pianos and the remainder ofthe practice rooms are equipped with practice pianos . MOST COMPLETE

EARPHONE PIANOS The ftird of the four large rooms is a room containing twenty Wurlitzer Electric pianos. These pianos are made so that the students can use earphones with them and no one except the instructor and the student can hear . what the student is play-

"We have here certainly one of the best, if not the best, most wonde.r ful and complete music departments in the entire San Diego County," said Brubeck. "There is no question as to the unlimited opportunities that can be had here by anyone who will only seek them. ,

This is where the students catch reptiles, and carefully mark the exact spot where the animals were found. Then the specimens are taken to the lab , measured. weighed, checked for parasites, sex-determined, and finall y they are catalogued, according to Bostic. ·-

JUST what is the e xact nature of thi s noi se the ace re clitation people see me d to lJe conc e m e <l about? :\ noise. acco r ding to authoriti es in the fi e ld, is any sound treated as a nuisance. Certainly this definition includes c l ass be ll s . They are a nuisance w:1e n you have to leave off talkil'!g to some doll a nd go to cl ass. The n. fifty minutes l ater, the hell s a r e again a nuisance because you can hardly hear to tear yourse lf away from a delightful lecture to go to lunch. The be ll s , unbeknown to many of us, are s lowly driving us crazy. IF you are doubtful, you can test yourself. Wha t is the maximum level of a continuous spectrum of sound your ea r can tol-

e rate Without discomfort or injury? Or in simpler terms, when the bell rings, do you experience discomfort, tickle, or pain? These are the only three possible responses. . PAIN, you say? That' s what I thought. You, as a s tudent at Palomar, are one of a select occupational group ·subject to the harmful physical effects of untemitting loud noises . Pneumatic drill operators and boiler make rs fall into the same classification. These men expe rience inner ear inflammation and lesions often resulting in permanent deafne ss. · THE problem, however, goes rar beyond the scope of me re physical res ponses. We must take into consideration the extre mely complex p sychological r esponse to unexpected loud noise, (even though we must admit that prohahly only about half the hells throughout the day are unexpecte d.) AS .one fac e t of the psychological response to noi se, consider the fact that toward the end of the day the be ll s become loude r. Actually , they only seem to bec ome loude r. Because our irritation curve is r is ing steeply, we tend to rate the sound ahout len dec ihles l oude r than it actua lly is. The increasing inte ns ity of the noi se of the be lls, eve n thou ghonl yappa re nt. causes cons ide rable unhappiness. This is true especially as the ringing sound r el ates to rne individual 's source of unJ·.appiness . I refer, of course, to the s tudent overcome with s leep . Conditioned to b e ing awakened by he lls , the be ll provokes him to fury eve ry time it rings . A no the r truly frighte ning aspect of the psychol ogical proble m of our clanging bells i s that we r eally do not know whe re the sound comes from . Neithe rdowe really know what produces it. Thi s has bee n prove n to he particularly di s turbing. especially to the s upe r s titious . It can pro-

duce fear, disorientation, and extreme tension. THESE disturbing emotional responses are felt by us every day when the bell rings . Where is it? What really produces the sound? No one. l t seems, has ever seen one of the bells. This may explain why the maintenance mPn are so s low in carrying out the administration's orders to tone the bells down. They can't fi nd them. BE this as it may, the worst kind of sound to have to adjust to is the loud. unexpected noise o f undetermined origin. These sounds, when coming from above, are particularly disturbing. That, unfortunately . is where our bells seem to be located. Perhaps, a long with the toning down of the he lls . arrows with large l etters saying BELL could be appropriately posted. Of course the problem of actually finding the bells r emains. THESE morbid psychological res ponses to the noise of our bells are especially disastrous · in the hyper-sensitive individual. This is significant, for what student is not hyper- sensitive? F indings on the teaching profession are as yet inconclusive , but there is s t rong s uspic ion that they too may belong to thi s same unhappy group . Given these facts, anyone can see we are facing a highly exp losi ve s ituation. The leaders hip is disturbe d. The student hody is di s turbed. r he disturbed le ade rship disturbs us and our responses are disturbed. Is it a ny wonder we we r e n't all on the dean's list? WHEN will the racous clangor or our he ll s be s ubdue d to a m elodious tinkle, as promised? Time is a cruc ial factor in this rapidly deteriora ting situation . Surely the administration, e ager to avoid another Berkely, will s oon instigate a round-the-clock search until the bells are found . We cannot r i s k waiting for the gentle harmony of a c arillon to send us hushed and peaceful to our c lasses.

With· all the information gathered, the students must then write a behavioral study paper including the ecological niche in which these reptiles belong. The paper can then be compared to other works of the same nature, and any original facts submitted to a scientific journal will be useable knowledge for other researchers. NEED A BOOST When asked how Bostic felt about this somewhat novel approach to biological studies at Palomar, he said , "There are a lot of potential students that need a boost and someone to help them follow t hrough on their projects. I feel that this method is both extremely benificial to the interested student, and provides new information to the instructor. "

Now , equipped wit h the facts of last week's column, we are ready to explore the budgeting of money which would finance a student's trip to Europe . A Palomar student's' question may well be, can one do everything planned by foil owing a monetary restriction? And the answer is yes! It is not likely that many students would get a big kick eating at London's Radio Tower Resturant, or e njoy being e ntertained at the Hippadrome on Trafalgar Square, both of which are frightfully expensive, at least by European standards. More appealing perhaps , would be an evening spent in rapt atte ntion a t Covenant Gardens watc hing a Sadie r' s We lls balle t, performed with a grace ofmovem e nt and artistic beauty which is poss ibly not e qualle d anywhe r e. Or, a dark. dank, but charming English pub, where you might absorb a little atmosphere, and at the 'same time make your visit to Europe a warm, human, rich. and rewarding experience , rather than a c luttered memory of stuffy hotels and pompous
