Speakers take awards at San Fernando In their 1966 debut the speech team performed excellently by winning 12 awards Friday at the San Fernando Valley State College Invitational Tournament. The 19-member team is composed almost entirely of novices who tasted their first forensic competition last weekend. Speech instructor Raymond Dahlin said he was happily surprised. "Some of the students that I thought might be weak ones did very well," he commented. The contest involved fifty western colleges and universities, including "all the major ones" according to Dahlin. Last week's tourney was "the biggest in West Coast area history," Dahlin also mentioned, involving approximately 200 debate teams and "easily more than 500 individuals." Palomar students took awards in all three categories --oral interpretation, persuasive speaking, and debate. In oral interpretation Mitties McDonald and Darlene Hendrickson took superior awards. In persuasive speaking superior ratings were earned by Armando Saenz and Diane Landfear. Also in persuasive speaking, excellent awards were taken by Nicola Kester, Kim Mitterling, Larry Rintye, Sharon Waldorf, Mitties McDonald and Darlene Hendrickson.

Dr. Huber, President of Paloma r, commented on Dr. Putnams death, " ... I think ail of us would agree that P hil _Putnam possessed unique and dynamic qualities which made him a distinquished administ rator, a brilliant speaker and a creative thinke r . He also had that "touch" which brought him close to his fellow man and established frie ndships of long s tanding. I truly believe that Palomar College would not have r eached its heights if it had not been fo r the "touch" of P hil Putnam."

An exploding inevitable--
homecoming
ByPennyHill Homecoming Week--is this for ~al? The practical purpose of this annual activity is always doubted, but at this point organization and plans for almost all homecoming activities are nebulous at best. Someone decided to produce a variety show Monday. During the Friday student activities hour, the first rehearsal sounded like an orgy. The quality of the show can be praised or degraded according to the degree of organization and planning behind this endeavor. Only a few days of rehearsal seems a little inadequate. Tomorrow the queen candidates will be introduced and it will be surprising if anyone knows what else is scheduled. A powder-puff football game should have held but some ofthe"athletes" persuaded the homecoming planning committee to postpone that event until Friday--knocking out a pep assembly with a live band. AWS postponed an important meeting on that day to avoid conflicts with the game and will now face a harried meeting two days before the Area I AWS conference at Southwestern College. Meanwhile, all during last week, different representatives wanted photographers for publicity for their own events. No one can deny that theTELESCOPE'S layout incoporates many pictures and that the editor's demand for these photos is unending, but getting the photography
d9J)artment to materialize aphotographer in five minutes is close to imposible. Then came the epitome of unorganization--Veteran's All-Men's Week.Because of the conflict with Homecoming they decided to postpone this great happening until November. Since they origin.ally planned Men's Week to be during the homecoming week activities, their excuse falls through. This is the vets club that had so much enthusiasm in the beginning of the semester. Maybe the importance placed on getting a homecoming candidate elected superseded men's week organization. Perhaps Homecoming Week will be successful; perhaps efficient communication can be achieved. Somehow, amidst the myriad of planners and idea contrivers, something can be accomplished. Even this possibllity is difficult to conceive. In future campaigns and the planning thereof, the individuals involved might try to make definite plans and stick to them. They possibly will learn from this experience and plan more ahead of time. When the class of '67 returns for its 20th year reunion at homecoming, perhaps even one of the week's activities will be confirmed. At least there is something to hope for, however naive we may be.
Homecoming campaign: club vs club
by Jean . Peasley Is the battle for homecoming queen really a battle between the girls, or is it more of a battle between the clubs to see who can out do the other with signs, spirit 'and determination? l!;veJ. y year when homecoming rolls around, the "active" clubs really get organized, at least to push their candidate for queen. They go ali out in making signs, and getting publicity for their nominee, and for at least one week therets school spirit, or maybe it would be better to say "club spirit." But what happens when homecoming is over? What do all our organized "active" clubs dissolve to? Is the most important thing for club prestige and distinction the nomination of a queen candidate? Why can't our clubs show spirit all vear round? 1n most colleges, clubs sit together at games as a matter of distinction and recognition. Two weeks ago when the Comet's faced Mesa in what was supposed to be one of the biggest games of the year, there was little spirit from Palomar's side. But, towards the LAST TWO MINUTES, a number of representatives from the Vet's club got hot on yelling, and some halfway decent spirit was shown. Why couldn't this have been done in the first two minutes? If the clubs would si'tt"ogether and arouse enthusiasm, ~ it would spread.
Why not? What's wrong with the idea of having the Vet's club, Circle K, and others sit together and see who can display the most spirit--a matter of pride for your club? Wouldn't this be a much better way for clubs to gain , recognition, prestige, and power, than through the election of THEIR candidate for homecoming queen? Is it possible that by clubs trying to out dothemselves to gain prestige, they might arouse school spirit, and all the clubs could pull together at a game to have TOTAL school spirit?? I wonder how it would feel to the team to have a student body who sincerely supports them, How about it clubs? I'm not saying it's a shame to have a queen candidate, at least you have spirit in SOMETHING. But--IS A QUEEN CANDIDATE MORE ·IMPORTANT THAN SUPPORTING A TEAM? I doubt if other schools recognize the sp1rit shown on this campus in queen elections. They would more likely note the overwhelming Palomar student body at the sports events. I believe the clubs are the beginning of school spirit. If they can be aroused, the school can be also. If QIW club were to show up at the next football game with 50 members yelling for our team, I'd bet that club would be long remembered, far longer than the club whose queen candidate won.
Guest Cqmmentary by Jane K. Hashberger Weep not, my friends and fellow students, if you are unfortunately between the 21st and the 25th years of your lives. We can still be adults. We now have a club. The Fringe, it will be called, a club designed especially for the group which doesn't even fit in with the group which doesn't fit in. Plans for many activities are now in preparation. There will be a parade, in which we will all · wear the weight of our adult responsibility prominently on our right shoulders. There will be a rock-in. We will all dress up to act out an episode of the Lash LaRue show,
bring rocking horses, and rock out in the main patio until we are recognized. There are only two of the worthwhile scenes we have in store. Occasionally we may· find ourselves feeling pangs of sadness because we have been excluded from the respectable and admirable Adult Club. When these times come, we must remember to find consolation in the fact that we too, on some blissful day, will be fifty. There will be a meeting on Friday. We ask you please not to attend, but to remain on the fringe, to bear your separateness alone.

The Great Escape
Ou reader• write
PAUL BRICKHILL
Reviewed by Jean Peasley The greatest thing about THE GREAT ESCAPE is that it really happened. According to George Harsh, it is a story "of a project conceived in the minds of, and carried through to success by, a group of ragged, starving scarecrows who, despite all privations, never lost sight of their sworn duty." The story of THE GREAT ESCAPE shows one sure thing: the aim, goal and life of any prisoner of war is based on escape. It is the duty of an officer to do anything in his power to try to escape; it is the prisoner's one neverending hope. In THE GREAT ESCAPE there is a story of a group of men who organized through months and months of planning and failures, a successful escape from a German P.O.W. camp. The men were lead by Roger Bushell and they carried through the theme that "even in death man can triumph over any obstacle ... in one magnificent gesture the seventy-six ragged, verminous men of all nationalities climbed out of that stinking hole in the ground in Silesia on that windy March night in 1944 and thumbed their collective nose at the entire Third Reich and all it stood for."
(George Harsh, introduction to THE GREAT ESCAPE.) The author, Paul Brickhill, was a prisoner of war for several years. It took many years for them to become skillful in the art of escaping--they went through many failures to get there. The most difficult trick they learned was hiding sand from the constantly searching Germans. In the first year of THE GREAT ESCAPE the Americans and British were together. But when they were mid-way in the construction of three tunnels, the Germans moved the Americans to another compound and there they were forced to begin all over on their own tunnels. Since the war, Brickhill has gone back to Germany twice to do research on the story. Once he got as far as the forbidden Russian zone at the scene of the escape. He went through thousands of reports to get the German side of the escape as well as the side he knew, trying to make the story he presents as accurate as possible. THE GREAT ESCAPE has been developed into a motion picture and stars Steve McQueen, James Garner and Richard Attenborough.

Dear Editor, The Unicorn Theatre takes pleasure in . inviting the students and faculty to a reception showing being held for their pleasure on Sunday, October 23 at 2:00 in the afternoon. The Unicorn considering, as it does, that film is a major, an exploited and badly served art, sees its role as very close to that of a College or University, and would, from this recognition of common goals, draw ever closer to the academic community. We intend this event to further this desire. We have arranged a program of films which we hope will suggest the scope and quality of our interests. Refreshments will be served, but we wish to make it clear that this is a deliberately informal occasion, and that no particular mode of apparel is suggested. Sincerely, Harold Leigh The Unicorn Theatre La Jolla, California
Student Commentary Would you attend football games if .... we had a stadium on campus? Why?
IJ
Steve Ware, Sophomore, business--Sure. I'd attend even on the old field. I'm a firm believer of extra curricula activities. Our Palomar squad is destined to reach the greatest height of their career this season and we should do our best as students to carry them through their trials and tribulations this season and next. Tom Early, Freshman, pre-med--Yes. Anew stadium would give you more pride in your school. There's no pride in having games on a high school field. It would add more to the school as a whole.
Tami Sola, Sophomore, art-- Yes, because everyone would have more school spirit if there was some definite place to go. Palomar deserves a new stadium. The football players would have something more to work for. Stephanie Meyer, Sophomore, psychology-Oh yes. I attend them now and I think it would be nice to have a new stadium. More people would come because it would increase school spirit and the accomodations would be better. Marilyn Jernigan, Sophomore, socialogy-Yes. Well, I attend games anyway but I think it would make people more enthusiastic and it would help school spirit. Whether or not we have a stadium shouldn't make a difference because our team plays just as good now. Consuela Contreras, Sophomore, general education--! think it would be a lot more fun and there would be a lot more school spirit in the college. It would mean more to play our game in our own field instead of at a high s chool.
Sports talk by Buzz Ponce
"Funny Bounces Marks Games" The old saying that a football takes funny bounces is probably the most underestimated clicM in the world of knocks and bruises. Palomar Colleges's Comets lost their fourth game in four tries last Saturday night at Escondido's Memorial Field, thanks to some of those "funny bounces." Much to the dismay of the Comets, this contest marked the second game of the short season that the margin of defeat for them has been one point. ---Who said this game can be disgusting? After San Bernadino jumped off to a 7-0 lead in the first quarter, the Comets bounced back in the second when quarterback Len Gann found end Rod Nicol all alone in the end zone and spotted him with a scoring aerial. Rick ·Trestrail booted the PAT and with less than a minute left in the first half, the Comets and Indians were tied 7-7. · Again it was San Bernadino which drew ·first blood in the second half. A simple , dive play from about the 30 yard line netted the visitors another touchdown and by the end of the third period, it was 14-7 in favor of the Indians. Palomar scored in the fourth quarter when another Gann pass found its mark and brought the score up to 14-13. The Comets elect.ed to go for the two point conversion attempt. After the snap from center, when holder Rod Nicol, faked the kick and threw to tight end Grant Raybould, it was apparent to everyone but the offteals that Palomar had taken the lead 15-14. However, again the Comets were ,foiled by the referees, and went on to loose, 14-13. It may seem evident to some that Palomar's grid team has gotten its share of bad bounces out of the pigskin. As the routine of the season wears on how-
ever, the ball should roll and bounce in a more favorable direction for the Comets. Let's hope that everything jells the way it should next Saturday night when Palomar hosts San Diego City College in the Homecoming game. With just a little of that elusive luck, and some of that good ol' fashioned hitting that the red and white have been displaying all year watch for City College to fall for the first time in three years of PSC play.
Martin- Palmer out It was learned just last week that the starting fullback for the Comets, freshman Ken Martin, will be lost for the remainder of the campaign and will not be able to resume his studies until the start of next semester. The bruising fullback, who came to Palomar Irom the Orange Glen campus, has been stricken withmononucleosisand hepititis. Certainly Martin's presence in the Comet backfield will be sorely missed. Earlier in the year, Chris Palmer, another fullback for Palomar was ruled ineligible' by league officials. It makes one wonder if the fullback post is a .jinx for the Comets.
Powder Puff Game Another activity that the student body of Palomar wants to be sure not to miss, is the powder-puff football game. This encounter will pit the more experienced sophomore girls against the faster and more eager freshman ladies. This contest is staged for next Friday on the football field at 11:00. It should be quite an interesting affair, featuring two of the "tougher" teams of the league.
Harriers down Mesa Maltese Cross Gives Team A City College next New Incentive The Comet runners made it two in . a row last Friday by topping Mesa 26-29. • The injury ridden Comets defeated the Olympians on the San Diegan's home course. This is the first time Palomar has betterl3d Mesa in cross country competion. Jim Adkins was individual winner for the Comets. Adkins toured the 4. 0 mile course in 20:34 to pace Palomar to a 2-0 Pacific Southwest Conference reading. Adkins won easily 19 seconds ahead of Mesa's Dennis Smith. Mesa's Jay Elbel took third in 21:10.0. Comets Randy Hartman, 21:20.0, and Dave Funderburk, 21:34.0, were fourth and fifth, respectively. Both Hartman and Funderburk, along with teammate Rick Fox, competed des· pite injuries. Palomar as yet undefeated should be c •out of sight'' when all runners completely recover. Palomar's Sal Castro finished seventh. Fox finished ninth with Mesa taking u,.e other spots in the top ten. Bill Brown was eleventh, Felipe Serrato took twelfth, Richard Williams came in thirteenth, Frank Lomeli was fourteenth, and Tom Saxe finished twentieth. ~xt week Coach Larry Knuth's runners will be at home facing Southwestern and looking to make it 3-0 for the season,

Lent and Dence
Maltese Cross winners Bob Lent and Don Dence have been harrasing Pacific Southwest Conference opponents for the past year, with this season being their most productive. Lent, who specializes in knocking passes and people down on defense, then turning around and catching passes on offense, is a Comet letterman who comes to Palomar by way of Fallbrook. Rated by coach Cece McGehee as one of the keys to the Palomar defense, Bob was selected by his teammates as a co-captain for this year's Comet squad. . A premier pass receiver with good range an excellent hands, Lent platoons with Dave Tibbetts at the split end position on offense. However, it is in defense where the lanky Comet excells. In each of the Comet games to date, he has been one of Palomar's '•biggest stickers." He won the coveted Maltese Cross against Arizona Western College when he personally decked several Matadors. Don Dence, who like Lent, is a Comet ~o-captain and hails from Fallbrook, Is stationed at the left guard position for Palomar, and is listed as a def,..
Have you noticed a black cross on some of the players helmets? If so, you haven't been seeing things. Bob Lent, Norm Johnston, Don Dence and Junior Morton are the first receiptents of the ccMaletese Cross" for the first two Palomar Comet football games this year. The "Cross" is awarded to a player who makes an outstanding hit, blocks or taokles - contact with an opposing player. It usually takes the coaching staff a week or so to decide who should receive the cccross" for that certain game. Last year was the first year it was started and was really a contagious incentive. The winner of a Maletese Cross is recognized by his teammates and by the staff as a real exceptional hitter. "It is real pride to the kids" , commented Coach Cecil McGehee. Only 10 or 11 were awarded the cccross' ' last year. with Bob Lent and Norm Johnston also winning one this year. Trainer Dan "Smokey" Deibert, paints them on the select players helmets . Next time you•re watching the Comets play, see if you can spot some kind . of hit that is out of the way - something you don't usually see on a play, and maybe you will be picking the next c 'Maltese Cross Winner".
inite all-PSC candidate. Dence is one of the quickest linemen ever developed at the PC campus and as a freshman last year, was a standout in the tough forward Comet wall. Don, who bears the nickname of "rattlesnake" because of the way he pulverizes and quickly snaps an opponent to the ground, won last years athlete scholar award. In Don's case he has earned a 4. 0 grade point average, while majoring in electronics. --Now lets hear the critics of the dumb linemen. Dence won his Maltese Cross for above and beyond the duty of knocking people down in the Compton College contest. Along with halfback Junior Morton, Dence was a standout in this particular duel. A fullback in high school, Don has made the transition to a guard in great fashion. McGehee rates him as one of Palomar's finest all-around linemen. Perhaps one of the quickest people to watch in the line of scrimmage, ••rattlesnake" certainly knows how to hold his own in the toughest of competition.
City College To Provide Comets Wdh Trouble With the San Diego City CollegePalomar game being played this Saturday night at 8:00 on the Escondido Field, it will highlight the Homecoming Week activities. The San Diego •'Knights" will be going into the game with a 1 win 0 loss record against the Comets after beating them last year, 29-14. The Comets, going into the game were rated 11th in the nation according to the J-C Grid Wire Pool. San Diego has won the Pacific Southwest Conference title two years in a row and Coach Cecil McGehee rates them a "real tough ball club, they have a good group of offensive backs". Charlie Davis, the Knights second leading r us he r and the 3rd leading scorer, along with Paul Dunn, leading pass receiver, will give the staut Comet defense a ''good work-out'' and maybe give the Comets another '•Mal'tese Cross". Palomar will throw at them: Junior Morton, six leading rusher: Leonard Gann, fifth leading passer and first leading punter; Grant Raybould and B111 Sullivan, third and sixth leading receivers in the Conference respectively. The Knight - Comet game should turn out to be one of the hottest contested games ln the Conference. With the Knights record at 0-2, they are a lot tougher than their record shows; they have a blg interior line and are strong in front. Their two losses have been to teams that are in the top 15 teams in the nation. Looks like Palomar is in store fo:r another night of good football.
Harriers in grueling meet against City Coach Larry Knuth's harriers will be facing one of thir most grueling cross country meets this Friday at 3 n . m., when they meet the San Diego City College "Knights" · on their. course. With the Comets three top runners; Randy Hartman, inflamed I achilles tendon; Dave Funderburk, out with an old injury and Rick Fox, pinched nerve in the knee; this wlll turn out to be a '•very tough meet''.

The Comets will face the San Diego City College Knights at 8 p.m. on Saturday on the Memorial Field in their second Conference game.
Going into the game, the Comets had lost their three previous games to Compton, 14-14; Arizona Western, 22-8; and San Diego Mesa 20-7, with San Diego Mesa begin their first Pacific Southwest Conference foe. The tough Comet defense held the bigger San Bernardino offense throughout most of the 1st quarter, with San Bernardino's fullback George Tribble doing most of the running. After picking up 23 yards on an end sweep, setting up the Indians for a tl-yard touchdown pass from quarterback ~Chuck Bertolina to left end Brian Kilpatrick, with 2 minutes and44 seconds left in the 1st quarte:r. The try for the extra point was good, making it 7-0, San Bernardino. Going into the second quarter, seven points down, the Comet defense held the rugged Indian offense, and forcing quarterback Bertolina to hurry his throw to end Kilpattick. Denfensive back Bill Sullivan i ntercepted the pass on the Comet 10-yard line, and the ball carried to the 15. On the first play from scrimmage, Comet halfback Chuck Nally picked up 6 yards running off tackle. Quarterback Leonard Gann then threw incomplete , but followed it up with a 25-yard pass to tailback Junior Morton, good for the first down on the Comet 47-yard line . Two successive losses and an incompleted pass, the kicking team came in, but kicker Gann faked and ran to the Indian 38-yard line where the Comet offensive gave the ball up after making .no yardage on two runs and an incom, pt~ted pass. • The rugged Comet defensive drove the Indians back to their 21~yard line, forcing them to kick to the Comet 46-yard line. Gann and Company, alternating Nally, tallbao, Marty, and Morton, with a Gann pass to end Grant Raybould--took the ball to the Indians 29-yard line. A 23yard romp by Morton followed with a
beautfiful block by tackle Mike Manning to spring him loose. With first and ten on the Indians 29yard line, Gann's first pass was incomplete, but, the second one, thrown to end Bob Lent, on the 15, was good. Quarterback Gann, with 1st down on the 14-yard-line, then stepped back in his pocket and hit end Rod Nicol in the end zone for the touchdown, capping a 54-yard drive by the Comets, with just 25 seconds left in the half. The extra point, kicked by Rick Trestrail was good, making it 7- 7 at the end of the half. The Comets drove to their 32-yard line at the start of the third quarter before they were forced to punt. The Indians penetrated as far as the Comet 22, but the stout Comet defense, with Bob Lent, a stand out on both offense and defense, forced the Indians to punt, trying to put the ball in the coffin corner. The Comets then started anotherdrive, but a Mike Cory fumble on the Indian 48-yard-line snuffed out their chances. Neither team made any real head-way in the 3rd quar ter, just trading punts. Taking 1\.dvantage of a bad hike from center and a ~..tann fumble on an attempted punt, the Indians recovered the 1st play from scrimmage, Tribble lugged the ball 18 yards for the score, with 10:44 left in the game. The extra point was good and the score stood at 13-7. Mike Cory took the kick-off and ran to the 33-yard line before he was brought down. Gann, running Cory for 5, Marty for 3, Cory no gain , Morton 3 yards set up a Comet 1st down. A major penalty against the Indians and the ball was on the 47- yard line of San Bernardino. Nally toted the ball for 5 yards and another first down, following an incompleted pass by Gann. Leonard Gann, on the first play from the 42- yard line, threw to Lent for another 1st down on the 29 yard line. On the 1st play, Gann threw to Lent again, this time for the touchdown, with 6:34 left to play. The two point conversion was no good in the eyes of the officials, but many persons on the side lines swore it was good. The score stood at 14-13. San Bernardino. Palomar and San Bernardino just ate up time for the rest of the game, trying to control the ball long enough to put together a touchdown drive, but to no avail on both sides. The final score remained San Bernardino 14, P · ~. omar 13.
