BishOp 's ComPany performances start Oct. 27 By Jay Carter Five highly polished and dedicated actors and three plays hand tailbred for this cast will be the mate rials combining to make the Bishop's Company's three performance series. Thursday, Friday, and Saturday evenings. Thursday night features ST. JOAN by George Bernard Shaw: Friday 1 STEP DOWN TO GLORY by Gary Heilsberg, and Saturdav. Hendrik Ibsen's ENEMY OF THE PEOPLEJhe theater doors will c~ose at curtain time. 8 p .m. Series tickets are still on sale at the ASB Bookstore. These are priced $1.00 for students with ASB cards, faculty and S3. 00 for others . Single tickets are priced S.50 for students withASB cards faculty and staff, and $1.50 for others. The Bishop's Company is a renowned professional repertory troupe now in its fourteenth year whose unique contribut-

to the theater arts is the revival of reliQ.'iOUS drama performed in churches . The Burbank based company was first only an idea conceived by Phylis Beardsley Bokar when, in 1939, she happended to be in a cathedral where a shaft of light descending from a window reminded her that the church was once a theater. However, it was only after the war that she was able to see her dream of revival. In 1952 she held auditions to form the original company. Some two hundred and fifty came but only four interested individuals remained after they discovered that they would exist on the free will offering of church members and the room and board their audiences might give. Those four are with the company still and two of them wll perform in this series. Today the company no longer must struggle in the manner of the early years. The first big break came in 1954 when

they performed at the World Council of Churches held in Evanston, Illiniois . Before the company's appearances there were finished, they had been booked with church groups throughout the country, and today the company's actors no longer subsist on charity alone. Upon joining they are salaried ten dollars a week, and when they become three year veteran they receive a boost to $30 a week.

times. Of special interest in a cast description . is Gene Gould, graduate of Vista High School and Palomar Col lege . Her interest in drama began at an early age . As a little girl she was a dancer on the green in Old Globe Shakespearian productions. At Palomar she was a versatile forensics s tudent whose excellence carried her into successful national level competition. She continued her education at San Jose State College, Los Angeles State College, and at the famous Pasadena Playhouse before she joined the Bishop's Company. She holds a bachelor of arts degree in drama and education. ·

The troupe has grown too. Today they travel in four units since there are now 28 actors. They company is now a magnet attracting young actors. Drama students from many colleges can now work with the company while receiving academic credit for the experience . The company is presently planning its first international tour . The actors that will be seen in this series have p layed most, if not all, of the roles in the repetoir thousands of

San Marcos, California

Southwestern spdls the fun

Area 1 delegates make progress; adjournment cancels completion Representatives from the eight junior colleges in Area I, San Diego County and Imperial Valley, convened Saturday at MiraCosta College. The conference lasted from approximately 10:00 to exactly 4:00. At the end of the ·meeting seven of the eight colleges wished to reconsider the orders of the day. Dissentor Southwestern managed to cause enough confusion that the clock struck 4:00 before a motion could be made to extend the conference a half hour. By this time only 10 of the 21 proposed resolutions had been covered. Leading up to the somewhat disappointing end. the delegates met in a communications assembly hall and were briefed on the day's activities. Dave Ackel man. ~r; e ·i k·r.~ of thr;: CJLtiGA welcomed the students along with Dr. John MacDonald. president ofMiraCosta College. Tile opedng ''welcomes'' were followed by a film, "Sunday," a commentary on a student riot in Washinton Square, New York. The film pointed out students' desire for their rights; the demonstration in Washington Square dealt with the .eight to sing in a public place.

Workshops Workshops followed the general as sembly and were adjourned at 12:20 for lunch. The workshops began again at 1: ~ 0 and resolutions and recommendations were hashed through and sent into the resolutions committee before the 1:45 deadline. Workshops were divided into A and B sections except the president's workshop; and the topics of these divi-

sions were Philosophy and Function of Student Government, Role of Campus Organizations, The Changing Student, and Campus Currents . The workshops broke up at 2:00 and were followed by a 20 minute section caucus. The schools were supposed to decide how they would vote on the issues during this time, but the resolutions were not duplicated in time. A second general assembly began at 2:30 and during this time six resolutions and recommendations were passed.

Resolutions The first resolution passed stated that Area I go .on record as being opposed to conducting concurrently Spring Area 1 Conferences and the Bank of America Awards Program. The Bank of America wanted these two events to be held together, but it was obvious that the delegates didn't have enough time to even cover their own issues, much less be hindered by another group . The resolution was moved by MiraCosta and seconded by SD Evening. A second resolution stated that Area 1 would ask the CJCSGA to amend California Education Code 8453. This amendment would allow any publication to be distributed on junior colleges. It was moved by Grossmont and seconded by Palomar. The third resolution passed was authored by Penny Hill of Palomar. It was a resolution legalizing Palomar's siren (Continued on page 3)

Viet Nam joru1n continuatrn Friday; Mark Violet ap{XJintm moderator A second forum on the topic "Viet Nam--\Vhy Bother?~ is scheduled Friday in F-22 at ll:OO. Replacing Steve Wozniak as student moderator is Mark Violet. An evaluation sheet passed out at the last forum indicated almost unanimous agreemnnt for furthering the discussion of Viet Nam. l\Iany students felt that they were unable to express their views or to develop their ideas in the brief Onf'-hour period during the first forum.

Realizing the tendency of students to. direct their questions to the ~speaker instead of the group as a whole, the foru.m com]Tlittee decided to have no student speaker this week. Roy Archer, political science instructor, will preside as faculty advisor. Student forums will normally be held on a monthly basis. Any suggestions pertaining to contemporary topics will be considered and welcomed.

Money, photos stolen from college last week Receipts short $50 in Circle K box Wednesday morning Circle K representatives discovered that their cash box with receipts from advance bonfirecanoe ticket sales had been broken into and $50.00 was missing. Steve Goodstein, Circle K President, reported that about $20 was taken from the top drawer and $30 from the bottom. The roll of advance tickets was also stolen. According to Goodstein, the box was locked up Tuesday in the Circle K drawer in the filing cabinet in the ASB office and meeting room, R-3. The box was checked by two persons before it was put away about 8:30 . The next morning when the ticket salesmen went

to get the box and begin sales. the cabinet was open and when they reached in to get the box, it too was open. "After it was announced that the tickets would be no good," Goodstein stated "the entire roll was found in a trash can." He said that the box had been pryed open by the filing cabinet was · not locked. A representative from the Sherriff's department was on campus Wednesday at the 11:00 activities hour investig. ating the incident. Goodstein indicated that Circle K w'ill press charges u the person or persons responsible for the theft are caught.

Students travel to see Martha Graham; tickets now on sale in bookstore Tickets are on sale this week for the November 5th matinee performance of the internationally famed Martha Graham Dance Company at UCLA. Free transportation has been arranged by the Drama Department and is available to ticket buyers. The bus will leave from the college at 11:00 a.m. and will return about 8 p.m. The matinee begins at 2:30 p .m . and features three

dance dramatizations The UCLA series is one of many which the .Martha Graham Dance Company will do in its present nation- wide tour , the first in many years. The tour may perhaps be the last for Martha Graham, widely considered to be the grande dame of American modern dance. Since the early twenties she has been qonsidered eminent in her field of art.

Two photos stolen jro1n library display Two color exhibits from the $2.000 American Society of Photographers display are missing from the li brary. reports Theodore Kilman, communications department head. The exhibft is on display in the library and in the photography department, F- 24. The two missing photographs were taken off one of the walls in the periodical room last week. A monetary value of $15- $20 is placed on the processing costs of each of the stolen photos. This 'price does not come near the photographers' value of the photos. The traveling exhibit. which has many prints that are over 36 inches wide by 24 inches high, should he on display through the end of the week. However, if there is any more vandalism, the college will be forced to remove the entire exhibit. This is the display that has IJeen at the Seattle World's Fair and its contril>uting photographers are · some of the country's top professionals in this fielcl .

Students invited to submit opinion for guest feature page Nov. 8 On November 8 the TELECOPE ins tends to run a full-page guest opinion feature. The editor invites any student to contribute a commentary for that edition. Current foci of debate is the general topic, and guest writers are encouraged to express their opinions on local , state, national and international subjects. The only limit to the number of commentaries the TELESCOPE can use is dependent on space available. However, there will be only one contribution per student. It would follow, then, that some students would wish to offer a rebuttal to another student's opinion. In this case, those individuals may submit a letter to the editor for the next issue. or, if they wish, they may submit their guest com-

mentary for the next s tudent opinion page. This new policy is an effort to give students the opportunity of expressing the ir views publicly. an opportunity that they might not ha 1·e ·~l sewhere . The TELESCOPE hopes that this first opinion feature page will. make students more . aware of current situations arid more aware of their peers' standing on these i ssues. If this new concept in Palomar College publications communication generates enough interest, theTELESCOPE will continue the section throughout the semester . Depending on the number of responses, the page will be open to student opinion every two weeks or once a month.

Photo by Mario Jimenez on display in the library.

"An Involvement With Type and Letters 1956-1966," presented by Robert Matheny, artist, is on display in the Dwight Boem Gallery in the F ine Arts Complex. Russel Baldwin, gallery director, commented on Metheny, "I think he has really developed over the past five or six years. Many artists wouldn't be as great in twenty years, but he has dedication to the letter form. The alphabet is his vehicle for visual expression." Matheny's medium is highly varied in his approach to art. His display features polichrome sculptures 1 acrylic paintings, hook rugs, prints, typography

graphic design and construction. Perhaps the most striking and outstanding factor of Ma theny's show is the use of brilliant color combinations on his pieces. Harry Bliss, art instructor, commented on Mathe ny's color use, "I think the most effective thing is the color use. It is used in a more delightful way than most pop artists." He further stated that the exhibit was arr anged in such a manner that it "is friendly and it makes you want to wander around.'' Baldwin also commented in praise of the show, "I think that it is great! It has a subtle humor that runs through all of the pieces. As you can see, some time it is a

caustic humor, they really mean some- . thing to him." Jane Hashberger. student, enthusiastically related her reaction to Matheny's humor as 'she viewed a piece of his work, ''It just makes my stomach have bubbles." As two students viewed the show for the first time their ,reactions of pleasure, "I think it is exciting and original and the best thing we've had in the gallery .. I love it! I want to make something like them." The entire show put up by a gallery crew of six people: Scott Wood, Bob Bornhoft, Barbra Gross, Elizabeth Nunn, Dennis Ervin. and Edna Speck.

It was in the twentieth year of Palomar's lightning campaign to wipe out dreaded apathy from the vocabulary of its students. but the college was running into some difficulty. The faculty were supplying the students with apathy dic tionaries. The campaign against apathy grew and grew until the faculty could no longer stand it; they weren't getting their share of the credit for advancing apathy's cause. Meeting secretly. they decided to launch a full-scale car.1.paign against contagious enthusiasm to set exo.mples for the students. During lectures they would stay in their offices o.r go off campus , scorning the handful of faculty that dared to show interest. ' At football games they would send a few representatives to cast a spell of doom. discouraging students from participating in verbal team support. Of course. they didn'tdaresendtoomany representatives for fear of showing up with a multitude of example setters. misleading students to think that they were attending games because they wanted to . These means were effective, but they were not reaching the full student body. So they decided to act in other ways. Silence on student activities was their motto: don't announce elections or. meetings of importance became their battle cry. Of course there was always a minority of dissenters that beli eved they were still philanthropic community me n and women who got through to the student--but their num 1>er:,; were so

By Jean Peasley Looking back on Palomar's 20th homecoming one thing seems to stand out in my mind: some people never give up. With all the discouragement, apathy, (as described by Hill) and spiritlessness of students floating around, there were some who kept the ball rolling. Everybody has been criticized lately: maybe it's time to give some recognition for a change . Homecoming week was. as usual, disorganized, but not a fault of those who tried to organize it. The homecoming committee, headed by Pat McArdle, had quite a job on their hands . Net only did they have to plan the various jobs, but they had to have somebody do them, and £or the most part they did it themselves. It's not only difficult for a committee to do everything; it's impossible . For successful, well organized homecoming activities it takes many students, not just a tiny handful. Another group of students who always keep trying: our cheerleaders. When it comes to the bottom of the barrel for enthusiasm. Palomar rates. But our cheerleaders stay in there !J.ll the way. Last Friday night at the bonfire Mike Umphries did everything to arouse the bystanders. but to no avail. Again on Saturday night Mike and the res t of the group--Penny. June and Darryl--never gave up. It must be really hard for some people to understand why and how they do it. A YEARN FOR PARTICIPATION Following Friday's powder puff game, the sophomore girls did not permit their enthusiasm to escape them after they lost. Along with Mike Umphries and some of the boy cheerleaders

Insult the salesmen: insult their clubs: discourage their cause. The faculty was trying hard while hardly trying.

Celebrating their year's accomplishments. the faculty planned a victory dinner. It was a great success--no one cared enough to show up .

' "'• · they began a serpentine. What started in the student union and patio ended up arousing many sleepy afternoon classes . Every once in awhile a teacher would dismiss class to let the students join in, but in the majority of the cases, class was momentarily stopped while a burst of "what is never seen at Palomar'' flew by. The serpentine built up gradually but was nothing compared to what it could have been if those yearning to participate would have joined. In Monday's Minstrel show, a group of students headed by Edward Johnston were having a great time singing and dancing around. Thesepeople--includinfi!: Mark Violet, Rita Schmidt. Carol Superfine, and most of the students who are involved in student government--are part of the minority who really have fun participating. Again. the only ones who missed out were those who wanted to join but didn't. The majority gave up their yearn for participation for a more sophisticated "dummied look" as they watched the hand-clapping merrymakers. The band is good to have around at pep rallies and events such as Monday's show. Monk's Mad Musicians have a certain amount of life which occasionally spreads. Their music drowns out the student body quietness, which, unfortunately is a contagious disease at Palomar, while students have built up an immunity to involvement. As for the future . .. well those handful of kids come and go. When there is no longer somebody to carr y out extra curricular activities, they will cease to ex1st, whtch is beginning to be the case for just about everything including clubs . If Palomar only had a few hundred more of those people who never give up .. .

Question: Do y ou think President Joh ns on 's tour of A sia is hel ping our war relations? Janie Apple, sophomore, physical education--! think the trip is for pleasure because Humphrey has been over there plenty of times.

Patsy Helton, sophomore, business--No, because China is saying we are only trying to hide the fact that we are trying to step up the war .

Daryl Pike, sophomore, educntlon--I think that President Johnson should give Hubert Humphrey a jolJ. And 1 think that he should ftnd a nice nepa hut In Vietnam and stay there. John Davis, sophomore. social science-Yes, because he will be discussing the war effort and will be giving our point of view to obslnate nations.

Terry Erwin, freshman, business--! believe President Johnson is helping because by going there he will help unite the Asians put up a better front against Communism to keep it from spreading into the free w6rld. Rick Hyatt, junior, political science--Yes, I feel that because he's the first United States president in many years to s~t foot in Asian ground that it s hould help improve relat.ons with Asian countries. Asia is where the problem is now. Bill Fehlhaber, fres hman, business--! think that he ought to send Governor Brown so Reagan can step into his office. :'-s many times as Hubert (Humphrey) has been there, ~f he hasn't gotten enough information by now, the trip 1s probably because he has never been there by himself.

Dear Editor, After reading your editorial concerning homecoming I feel com~Jelled to correct a few errors in the article. Concerning your statements about Monday's Pep Rally, you should know that the rally was organized two weeks before Friday's "orgy." However, on Friday we realized that most of the students who were to be in the program would not show up on Monday. So we gathered together a few student s who were brave enough to face the student body without too much practice. Monday' s rally may not have been of a high "quality," but it certainly generated enthusiasm. I was under the impression that enthusiasm for our team and our college was the only object of a pep rally. ,\lso, you stated that some ofthe players in the powder puff football game persuaded the homecoming planning committee" to change their scheduled gam~ from Wednesday to Friday. This statement was not true. The homecoming chairman was not even consulted about this change. Some of the players had the change printed in the paper without her knowledge. no photographer was Furthe rmore, asked to take a picture in five minutes notice. All arrangements were made at least one week before time. I am surprised that Miss Hill, who has . worked so hard on a campaign agau~st apathy on this campus, should choose to print her only two editorials against our homecoming. Most of the credit for this year's successful liomecori:ling goes to the homecoming chairman, Pat McArdle, who has worked unbelievably hard to make this homecoming Palomar's best homecoming.

They did not stop there. Cheerleaders ' and team mem')ers selling booster ribbons were to be a voided at all costs. If caught by one. invent a meeting starting five minutes ago: be continually evasive.

And so it came to a close. the 20th year. During both terms faculty missed classes. setting examples for the students. They scheduled tests after assemblies and important student activity weekends. forcing students to miss these events. No longer did students make any conscious effort to attend school functions--they knew that there were Jaculty spies everywhere. and iftheywere caught participating in something. their grades were lowered.

Lightning survivors tell story of their unique experie11ce "Like no big thing. I mean there really isn't much to tell. There really wasn't much to it," was Nancy Reel's personal reactions to the natural phenomon of a lightning bolt that made her and her boy friend local celebraties on October lOth. Lightning struck the umbrella that Hoy Stryson and Nancy were sharing as they strolled to class at approximately 11:40 a.m. that Monday. At that moment many people walking about the campus saw the spherical flash of light or its reflection on all kinds of surfaces, including faces and brick walls. Most of then, awed though they might have been, didn't know that two persons had been struck and ·had survived absolutely unharmed. The briefest description of the sensation felt "something like the way that a record player needle feels on your finger, you know how it kind of shakes? Well, it felt kind of like that except that it was much, much greater." The bolt landed as the two under the umbrella were standing where the walk leading to the north parking lot meets the walkway beside the lower numbered section of the P building complex. From the north side of that building, where faculty offices are located, several instructors witnessed the aftermath of the accident. Drama instructor Frank White was the first to reach the scene, reacting to the"tremendous golden flash" he saw outside his office window. Stepping out of his office, he saw the couple. Nancy, stunned, was still clutching the umbrella while Roy was prostrate and unconscious . Two students came to offer help, but before they could administer artificial respiration, Roy regained con-

Tell parents "Wet and still somewhat shaken," in the words of Nancy, the couple went home to Fallbrook. Reaching Fallbrook, they searched out Nancy's father and told him of the accident. He was amazed but he received the story much more easily than either of them had expected. Then they went to Roy's home, prepared to tell Roy's father of the freak accident. When the two saw him, the conversation went like this: •Hold on to yourself. Are you ready for us to tell you something that you just won't believe?" •what happened?", the father asked. "What happened?" the parent kept repeating, becoming increasingly disturbed. Finally he said, "Did you two get married?" This prelude seemed to lessen the terribleness of the power of lightning to Mr . Stryson. Perhaps he was even slightly relieved to know the great "unbelieveble" was a bolt of lightyning.

Bishop's COffipan (Continued from page 1)

Minna Caldwell is the remarkable woman recorded as the company's oldest member. One of the original four, she came to Hollywood from Illinois seeking an acting career and was shortly a traveling trouper at the age of 67. The company celebrated her 80th bitthday in Alaska last year. James Wheaton .is another company charter member. Wheaton, a Negro, may surprise people when he plays the role of a Swede. The company does not consider race a factor in casting. Wheaton, the son of a minister, began acting with the sole intention of doing church plays. He holds the master's degree from the University of Colorado. Tom Mills completes the membership of this unit. Mills graduated from UCLA with honors in the theater arts. A veteran of TV acting · and sqmmer stock, he serves also as the company ~ooking manager. Drama instructor Frank N. White firmly asserts that the series should be considered a salient feature of the educational calendar for students this year, and as a notable contribution to the community. Dean of Instruction Virgil Bergman, who saw the company perform last year at the Escondido Methodist Church, adds that "these performances are of special interest to students of the social sciences; there is a special poignancy in them."

Play cards Nancy and Roy then settled down to a quiet afternoon of card games that was interrupted only by a 2:30 call from a curious friend. At 4 p.m., however, the onslaught of calls from the news media began. Fi·F st there queries from the Escondido TIMES-ADVOCATE, then the KCBQ radio station, the San Diego UNION radio KOWN, and even United Press International from New York. The barage ended after 10 p.m. The subjects of the investigations at first reacted with bemused surprize. Later they thought it was very funny, and at last the "big joke" grew wearisome. Nevertheless, later they were quite willing to accept and interview with a TELESCOPE representative. Nancy, far from being reticent, happily discussed lightning phenomena. She wondered about the stories that she, like others, had heard of persons and objects being struck by lightning. One story she recalled was of a rider who was struck while on horeseback. The rider, as one might expect, did not survive. The horse did not either. And, according to the story, the bolt bore through the animal's body, exiting through the hoofs with fist-sized holes. Strange? Perhaps . But much more common than the experience of Roy Stryson and Nancy Reel.

Area 1 delegates make progress (Continued from page 1\ as far as the PSC athletic league rules are concerned. Mesa, Imperial Valley, and Southwestern objected to the resolution. It was originally moved by Palomar and seconded by Southwestern in the workshops, but Southwestern withdrew their second during the general assembly. A surprise to Palomar, San Diego City College then seconded it. During open debate, Miss Hill gave the first Pro speech, followed by a Con by Mesa, and a second Pro by City. The next resolution that passed stated that Area 1 go on record in favor of each governing board investigating the feasibility of instituting the quarter system and that Area 1 forward the resolution to the CJCSGA for endorsement. It was moved by S.D. Evening and seconded by Palomar. Resolution 9, the fifth resolution to be passed, moved by Grossmont and seconded by Palomar, stated that Area 1 request the CJCSGA President or student representative from the CJCSGA Conference be in attendence at the CJCA meetings to which the CJCSGA Conference resolutions have been forwarded for consideration. This resolution was brought up because at previous CJCA conferences and committee meetings, there have been no CJCSGA student representatives present to back the resolutions passed during that organization's conference.

Club council stands firm-four clubs out for good

sciousness. Others who came upon the accident scene were English instructor Richard Peacock, a student who had been eating his lunch in his car in the adjacent parking lot, and students from classes in the lower P building. Roy, by the consenus of Peacock, White, and Nancy had been unconscious for about two minutes. They were both rushed into White's office and were examined by the campus nurse. Other than the warped ribs of the umbrella, the only evidence of the incident were the slightly reddened hands of tJ:le boy and girl After recovering from a benumbed state of shock, Nancy and Roy went through a brief nervous period of "sitting down, getting up, wringing hands and sitting again."

Moved by Grossmont and seconded by Mesa, resolution 10, the last resolution covered in the day's session, ~esolved that the CJCS.GA ~0 on r~cord m favor of encouragmg 1ts member colleges to actively promote informal dialogues involving members of the student body, faculty, and administration. This is a suggestion for the type of structure Palomar instituted this semester, the Forum. When this resolution was passed, it was evident to the assembly that there would not be enough time to act on the remaining resolutions. Three resolutions in the remaining eleven were passed unanimously in the workshops and stood a chance of being passed by all the Area 1 schools. Mira Costa moved to extend the time limit to 4:30 was ruled out of order. Vincent Sineck, MiraCosta ASB President, then moved to reconsider the orders of the day and the motion was passed, 7-1, Southwestern objecting. The second hand kept moving and before MiraCosta could finish its motion to extend the time limit, Southwesternproclaimed that it was 4:00 and the meeting was adjourned. The eight schools in the Area 1 section are Grossmont, Imperial Valley, MiraCosta, Palomar, San Diego City, San Diego Evening, San Diego Mesa, and Southwestern.

THE TELESCOPE

Four Palomar student organizations will have no activities for the remainder of this semester because of their failure to petition re-admittance to the Inter-club Council. ''I am very sorry that these clubs will not be allowed to function as camput organizations for the remainder of the semester," said Nancy Hicks, chairman of ICC. These four club's charters have been revoked and they will not be permitted to hold meetings or sponsor activities.

The Baptist Student Union, one of the clubs, was sponsored by Kirby Cox, physics and physical science instructor. Its purpose is to promote spiritual growth of the student on campus . Ixthus, another Christian club on cam-

pus, was another club dropped from the ICC roster. Its sponsor was John Barlow, art department head. The third club ousted from campus activities was the Wesley club, still another Christian activities club. It was advised by Dr. Harry Mahan,psychology department head. The fourth and the only non-religious group is the Young Democrats . Because of insufficient members, and interest in the club, it was not organized this year, according to Roy Archer, advisor and political science instructor. Of the seven suspended clubs, only three organized and petition to ICC for admittance within the three week's limit. They were the Associated Men Students, Alpha Kappa Omicron, and the Varsity club.

Leg~lature

announces scholarship offerings; junior college transfer students eligible Speaker of the Assembly, Jesse Unruh, announced last Tuesday that competition is now open among Califol-nia high school seniors and prospective junior college transfe r students for 1966-67 state scholarship awards. The applications are now available at local high schools and junior colleges in the Los Angeles area, or by writing directly to the State Scholarship and Loan Commission, 520 Capitol Mall, Sacramento. " With this legislation we have removed the artificial limitation on the number of state scholarships that can be offered,' • Unruh commented. "The result will be increased oppourtunity in higher education for young people who apply themselves while attending high school or junior college." Unruh estimated that approximately 72,000 state scholarship awards will be made in the next school year. These scholarships will range from $300 per year to a maximum of $1.500, depending upon the student's financial need. Students wishing to apply for the awards must apply through their school or

prospective couege by December 15, 1966. New low-interest student loans, enacted jointly by the federal government and the California Legislature in 1966, will become operative in California during the coming school year. Under this program approximately 8, 000 federally-insured student loans, ranging up to $1,500 per year for four years, will be available to students in California. This

It will be held in the student union from 10:30 - 12:00. Highlighting the evening's activities will be one of the most popular bands in the North County, the NEW NOBLES. Admission price will be $. 75 per student and $1.00 for couples. Dress casual for the affair. A large turnout and turn-on is anticipated.

Scholarship applications for the University of Southern California are now av:ailable from the counseling department. The deadline for applications is November 15, reports Roland Phelps, counselor.

Men's Week was to have been held the week of October 24 - 29, but with the closeness of Homecoming W;ek, the Veteran's had trouble setting any detlnite times. "The Beauty Contest that was to have been held last Friday at ll a .m. was postponed because of the "Powder-Puff football game," .stated Rich Lipari, President of the Vet's Club, " much to the disliking of the Beauties ."

Scholarships, loans, and part-time employment are being offered to undergraduates by the institution. Considerations on the amount of a scholarship are based on financial need. A minimum "B" grade average is a primary requirement. Junior college transfer • students are · eligible for scholarships, but transfer s tudents from other four year institutions are not eligible until they have completed one semester at USC. There are, in addition, special requirements for scholarships in the fields of journalism, music, and forensics. Students are requested to apply to the directors of these programs. A scholarship can be renewed if a student keeps within the standards set by the University. It is possible to start at USC with a one year scholarship and renew that scholarship all four years of undergraduate study. For more information on the scholarship program or on the loans and employment programs, students should consult their counselors.

and students were blessed with a sense of humor in those early years, and without it we couldn't have gone on. Student Body President, Steve Wozniak thanked the patrons of Palomar for their support through the years and told the audience that the college has received National acclaim and top scholastic ratings due to their support. Theodore Kilman, president of the College Faculty Association, said, "it is exciting and rewarding to the faculty to be a part of the vigor and accomplishments of an expanding college like Palomar.'' Virgil L. Bergman, dean of instruction, discussed the expansion of curriculum and the need to strengthen the vocational training program. He said, "No student in search of a baccalaureate degree has ever been short-changed by his first two years in Palomar College." Before the program came to a close, Dr. Huber un.veiled the future plans of expansion for Palomar College . These plans include facilities for an anticipated 5,000 students. Dr. Huber said, ''This master plan is the most significant development in 20 years." The plan was the result of a year and a half of work by committees of the administration, faculty and public representatives. Other community and college officials presented at the banquet were Dr. Tipton L. Wood, chairman of the board of gov~nors and Mrs. Mary Connors, president of the Palomar Patrons . A moment of silence was observed during the program for the late Dr. Phil Putnam, president of Palomar from 1952 to 1956, who died Oct. 13.

McGehees Freshmen bunnies • np tough sophomore team, 22-8 Chris Palmer's sophomore girls football team lost a tough battle to the ''freshmen bunnies" last Friday, by a score of 22-8. Going into the game, the sophomores were hindered with sore muscles from their only organized and rigid practice the night before. The freshmen, on the other hand, had been practicing regularly for two weeks under the coaching of Mrs. Cecil McGehee, . wife of the famous Comet Coach Cecil McGe:hee. The tough sophomore defense, including Sandi Woods, Fran Craig and Roberta Brown, held the bigger freshmen bunnies until the middle of the first half. (The game was comprised of two 15-minute quarters.) Then fullback Sharon White ran up the center through the sophomore offense, making the first freshmen touchdown. The frosh succee ·iFd in a conversion attempt and the score was 8-0 with 7:15 minutes left in the first half. After a short kickoff from the freshmen the sophomores failed to hustle the ball and the freshmen jumped it. Once again the sophomore defense was called on to take over. The Big D couldn't hold out, however, and Gail Eldridge ran a reverse in the corner end zone for the freshmen's second touchdown. Eldridge starred again as she caught the ball for another 2point conversion and the score at the end of the first half was 16-0, freshmen. The sophomore offense went into the 3rd quarter fired up. after a "locker room'' lecture from Coach Palmer, who threatened to resign as coach if something wasn't done about the score. Something was done about the score alright--the tough sophomore team faced a demoralizing kickoff as halfback Gail Eldridge furthered her career in foot-

In the second half of the game the girls dived into tackle football, discarding all indications of flag. Sophomore training had been of this type and Coach Palmer's girls hit hard in their last few minutes of effort. As one player put it, "If we would have played football in the first half, we would have won the game." Some of the cheerleaders donated their talents for the benefit of the sophomore team much to the delight of the spectators. but couldn't help raise the score.

Penny Hill , remembering Coach Palmer's sideline ''chat," bounced back for the sophomores as she ran a draw play for a 60-yard gain, evading three tackles before being brought down. With renewed enthusiasm the sophomore offense fired up and Roberta Brown scored a touchdown on a run play. A conversion attempt by fullback Hill was good, and the game ended shortly after with the score 22-8, with the frosh as the victors.

Sports talk by Buzz P once

"Ouesticnable Officiating" After finding the one-loss record, a rather decrepit looking 0-5 , Palomar Colleges' Comets certainly must be the best winless team in California, after taking on San Diego City College Saturaday in Escondido. One must be reminded that the toughest opponent the Comets have faced all season are the officials . Cert ainly a referee's job is not an easy one, yet the way they have been ruling Palomar's games to date, one would think that their job is twice as hard as it actually is. When the Comets journeyed to Compton College for the inaugural tilt for both teams, in the closing seconds of the encounter, Palomar's Tom Dempsey booted a 47 field goal that split the uprights and won the game for the Comets 17-15. Lo and behol however, the black axe of fate fell on Palomar's head as a.n official ruled Dempsey's kick wide to the right. A disputed call maybe? Well, that will have to be classified in the understatement file, as everyone whci witnessed the contest, including the men from Compton recognized that the Comets were the victors . That is, everyone but the referees, as their call nullified Palomar's win and boosted Compton College's reading to 1-0. It seems as if one blown game by the official corps would be enough for the entire history of one football team. However, it is believed that the officials were not quite satisfied with their Compton effort. They wanted to get Palomar one more time. Blow the bugles and beat the drums because once again the Comets were undermined by the r eferees. In the contest that pitted Palomar against San Be rnandino Valle y, just one week back, the Comets , much to their

partisans delight , had edged the Indians 15-14. This was before the referee had ruled Gran Raybould was never in the end zone afte r he caught Rod Nicol's two point conversion pass. Study of the game film will definitely reveal that Raybould, after catching the pass, was two yeards in the end zone and then was pushed out. The nearest . referee to the play, did not even see the ball being passed until the ball was halfway into flight. One can easily see that without too much difficulty the Comets could now be sporting a 2-3 reading instead of their m·e ager 0-5 record. Since Palomar dropped its homecoming game, it is only appropriate that Mira Costa does the does the. The Comets will get a chance to down their arch vivals in the Spartan' s homecoming encounter for the season. The "big game•r is set for next Saturday night at Simcox Field, Oceanside. This contest, which is billed as the rivalry of all rivalrys , pit s two of the Pacific Southwest's Conference evenly matched teams fighting it out between each othe r . As always, the Comet-Spartan game brings thrills and chills to the fams , and this tilt should prove to be no exception. One thing is certain, e very Palom ar team me mber i s hungry for a win and just the thought of playing Mira Costa builds the ir appetite up that much more. Watch for the Comets to gobble up their first win. The injury list at Paloma r c ont inue s to frow. Latest c asualty is full-back John Hinton, out with a head in jury. This marks the third full-back for the Comets this year who has had to hang it up. Hinton follows in the footsteps of Ke n Martin and Chris Palme r .

Comets Look For First Win Against Mira C0sta Rod Nicol and Mike Manning, a pair of talented sophomore veterans for the Comets, have been turning in impressive performances on the grid-iron in each of Palomar's contests to date .

wall for the past two se asons. Mike played high s c hool ball for coac h Chick Embr y at Escondido a nd has r eceived nothing put praise x:om his former mentor.

Nicol, who plants his 6-l, 195 pound frame at outside linebacker on defense and tight end on offense, last year played behind All - Conference quarterback Jerry Montiel and was considered an outstanding quarterback prospect in his own right. However, because ofthe depth that the Comets have at the QN position t.his year, coach Cece McGehee elected to play the versatile Nicol at the outside linebacker post and tight end slot.

As a Cougar at EHS, Manning was All- Metro League on the defensive unit: His abi.lities as a football player are all contributed to the offens ive s ide of the line at Palomar. howeve r. Manning has delive red nume rous key blocks in all of the Comet game s . His most outstanding encounte r to date, was the Me sa College tilt where Palomar was drubbed 20-7. Mike opened s eve ral holes , making running easy for backs Junior Morton and Mike Cory, Per haps one of the club' s ·more agile aud faste r lineme n, Manning has been depended upon to give quar terbacks Gann and George Gregoroff needed protection on pass plays . This has been one of the Comet's biggest problems , howe ver, the playing of Manning has left little to be desired. Echoing Embry , Coach McGeHee feels that Mike Manning has been doing an outs tanding,: .lob on the football field for P alomar College. Ce rtainly, if onn W'l u:; ''J wr1 ~:Jh for flne line play, take a look at numbe r 75 for the Comets.

Having displayed great potential at both spots. Nicol seems certain to be a NLPSC candidate. On defense, Rod has bee n a maunstay for the Comets . He has intercepted one pass and he ld the opposition's outside running attack to almost nothing. On offense , where he alternates with Grant Raybould, it was big Rod who gathered in quarterback Len Gann's pass that put Palomar on the scoreboard for the first time in the San Bernadino Valley contest. Manninrr, who disphyL~ ·,11'3 talents at offensive right tackle, has been a stalwart performe r in the for wa r d Come t

Profiles

Comet Runners Out Distance Southwestern 16-47 Coach Larry Knuth's runners took another step toward the state cross countr y crown last Friday. The Comets whipped Southwestern 16-47 on Palo-mar's course. P alomar now sports an unblemished 3- 0 Pacific Southwest Conference record. Three Comet runners deadheated for fi rst place. Jim Adkins, Randy Hartman, and Dave Funderburk, all running effortlessly, finished shoulder to shoulder. The three were timed in 23:20.0 for the 4. 0 mile course. Rick Fox was the next runner to finish. He was followed by Southwestern's Bob Ge lsomini, who came back to edge Bill Brown in the stretch. Gelsomini, laboring at the finis h, had led for tile first two miles of the race. He was slowed to the proverbel snail's pace on the hills to the north of Campus. Adkins, Funde r burk, Hartman, Fox, and Brown all powered past him on the difficult part of the course. Insidently, the Comet course which was considered the toughest in the state last year has been "improved.'' This year it is even m or e difficult. Southwestern was forced to compete without their top runner, Terry Rogers (4: 11. 6 mile). Rogers suffered a pulled hamstring muscle last Wednesday in practice. However, even a healthy Rogers c ould not have saved his team from defeat . The Comets took eight of the top ten places. Frank Lomeli came in seventh, Felipe Serrato finished eighth, and Rich Williams placed tenth. Sal Castro placed e leventh and Tom Saxe finished sixteenth i n what Coach Knuth termed "perfect cross country weather."

Variety show kicks off homecoming week activities

by PENNY HILL Al Jolsen song hits, presented by black-faced, bewigged Ed Johnston started off "The Good Old Days" homecoming activities Monday at 11:00 in the student union. Before the song-fest began, Monk's Mad Musicians (otherwise known as the Palomar band) played arousing rally numbers, and ended their pre-presentation with "Charleston" as the day's performers entered the student union doing their conga-line charleston improvisation. "AI" convinced the audience· that he really loved Swanee, and many spectators commented after the performance that "Al" sounded very much like the real Jolsen. Facing the problems of a microphone that worked when he wasn't using it and failed when he needed it, a cast of performers that decided to not be "stars" at the last minute, and a not easily aroused audience, ' 1Al'' managed to conquer the difficulties and to arouse enthusiasm in the spectators. After a few more Jolsen numbers, terpsichorean Karen Schmidt presented her Charleston interpretation. Although the volume on the record player did not get loud enough and the microphone wasn't working well enough to pick up the music, Miss Schmidt gave an exceptionally good performance and :r;eceived a large applause at the conclusion of her number. The focal spotlight traveled back to "Al" who, baited by Pat Flannigan, managed to get away with some old Jolsen standard jokes. At this point

the audience was becoming involved and clapped at the good jokes and booed the ''sick" ones. Concluding the program, which included songs like "The Robert E. Lee" and "Mammy, " Jolsen and troupe circulated into the audience singing "I want a girl / just like the girl/ that

married dear old dad." The running, jumping, and singing group included Rita Schmidt, Mark Violet, Chris Sauer, Carol Superfine, Peggy Oliver, Peggy O'Brien, Nicola Kester, and Nancy Seri. A 4-piece plano-accordian-bass-banjo improvised band accompanied the performers.

When the performance was over, Monk's Mad Musicians broke into a rally song and the cheering squad led the audience in the songs. The band and cheerleaders took turns with songs and cheers and the day's activities ended with the band playing the Palomar Fight Song in double_. time.

Charlie's bonfire awearance booed by JOAN KATTELMANN

Although the cheerleaders weren't exactly together on this cheer, they got

the idea across- GO COMETS!

Approximately 150 dance minded students attended the annual homecoming bonfire on Friday night. The fire was started by the burning of "Charlie," a Circle-K improvised city representative. Cheers were started by the cheerleaders while those in the back asked ''How long until the dance starts?" Spark was added to the event when "Charlie" made a "live" appearance . He was driven up in a late model car (reportedly Coach Larry Knuth's GTO) and pushed out. "Charlie" was inte-rviewed by BBC's Richard William's. "Charlie,'' some remarked, "bears a strikinsr resemblance to Dave Funderburkl" ... hmmm. The interview was brought to a close when a red car roared up in a cloud of dust. Members of the cross country team force "charlie" into the trunk to the cheers of the crowd. The car roared off as the cheers continued. Wayne Johnston was proclaimed the ''Ugly Man.'' He had accumulated over five dollars in his jar. He was intToduced by Mike Umphries who said, "Isn't he the ugliest man you ever saw?" Wayne was greeted by a roar of laughter and applause as he caine forward to get his award. Umphries then started a . chant, "Oooh he's UGLY." A dance followed the rally in the student union. This event was also sponsored by Circle K. With three bands taking their turns at the musical helm. the dance was guided down a straight path to success.

After-game serpentine invades classes Friday by JEAN PEASLEY Photo by Mike Gorsuch One of Palomar's biggest serpentines Time out for Terri Thomas to scratch Hill cast inquisitive glances at a concrashed through classes Friday after the her knee while Sandi Woods and Penny cealed Mi~e Umphries on the "mike." powder puff football game. Leading the drive ---~-----------~~~~ for enthusiasm was the losing sophomore girl's team (clad in their football gear, boosting the Comet team,) and the boy •cheerleaders." Immediately following the game, the exhausted, defeated team plopped down in front of the boy's gym room and chanted "Go Comets, Beat City!" Cheerleaders Mike Umphries and Daryl Pike , along with some of the cheerleaders from the powder puff game, soon aroused interest in a serpentine and led the girls around campus with the siren blaring. The student union and lunch area were hit first, after which the serpentine began to invade every class in Palomar. Soon over a hundred kids were arousing classes with "Beat City. " Occasionally an instructor would dismiss class and more students would join in. After awaking the north end of campus, the serpentine crashed the library and the administration buildings. The only halt given to the jovial students during the entire afternoon was at the music complex where an instructor was giving a test. For a Friday afternoon Palomar was burstPhoto by Gordon Stubblefield This is the tail end of the hour-long ing with noise, and not until the spirited home game and drumming up support Comet's fans had hit every class did the serpentine that marched on the campus for the Comets. Friday, arousing spirit for the last afternoon festivities die down.

Trying to arouse some enthusiasm, the cheerleaders imitate · a football huddle and "quarterback" Umphries made the
