A PUBLICATION OF THE ASSOCIATED STUDENTS

1966: the year without democracy; the year with the silent majority Articles about the New Student state that today's students are •more mature ... more ready to take on responsibility ... than ever before." Dr. Alex C. Sherriffs began his thought-provoking lecture Friday by stating "This doesn't happen to be true.

"You've had it pretty much made ... the worse that can happen is that you won't survive the poverty program and medicare," Dr. Sherriffs continued, stating that it's impossible for today's students to be more mature when they haven't had any experience in life. "Whenyou've had experience in war, depression, etc . then it could be true that you are responsible and more mature . " The evaluation of siudentprotests today aren't accurate, claimed Dr. Sherriffs.

The beliefs that there is prohibition of free speech, and a student revolution at Berkeley are ..all false. .

With all these myths hanging about us then what is the situation today? Dr. Sherriffs was very strongly opinionated in this area. He told about an incident in the Bay area where a large boy kicked smaller boy in the face for 10 minutes while 200 classmates watched. He referred to the capture of the police car at Berkeley as "the longest interference of due process of law... We take pride in being able to afford extremists ... " But what about these cases where 100% felt no responsibility (high school episode), and where 26,000 students didn't know what was right or wrong? "Usually society can afford these people because the majority will take care of it ... but in 19 6 6 the majority of us aren't functioning at all. Ten years ago you could not have found 200 people to stand around and watch an incident, if

you would have gone out and looked for them, and you couldn't have found 26,000 who didn't know right from wrong."

Dr. Sherriffs called this the "age of over-conformity." ("If this is the year to do it, then we will do it.") It is also the age of a search for the definition of the sex role. Dr. Sherriffs said that in several surveys the most frequent answer to the question "Who am I?" was "I am Joe Elow." The second most frequent answer was the sex answer_ ,(I am a girl) In jest, Dr. Sherriffs said that today's male hair styles are one way of avoiding a decision.

Dr. Sherriffs said that the silent generation isn't dead, it didn't pass _ "It is more silent now than in· the 1950's.

Today's students call themselves apathetic. _Now its casual. It is the age of non-commitment, and non· involvement There is embarrassment inleadership.

Palomar history instructor Kremer speaks at League of Cal. Cities dinner

by Joe Wu Commenting on "The Role of the Public Servant," Palmer N. Kremer, history instructor and mayor pro-tempro of San Marcos, spoke to a dinner audience of over 150 persons last Friday night. The occasion was the monthlyNovember meeting of the League of California Cities , San Diego Divi!'lion held at the Hilton Inn in San Die~o. " .. . Public interest of a city in our representative democracy, as that sol-

ution to a problem which comes closest to the highest goals of the city provided (that) both the goals and the solution of the specific problem, are the result of an efficient collection of whatever pieces of wisdom any individu.al or group in the city has to offer, if they are offered in accordance with the letter ·and spirit of the natural law theirpieces of wisdom ," said Kremer, who lead the symposium and presented the academic point of view at the highlight of his speech on "Is there a public interest?"

Tom Fletcher, San Diego City Manager who gave the management viewpoint of the topic, remarked that, 111 Mr. Kremer's definition of 'public intEn·est' is one of the best definitions--if not the best deflnition--I have ever heard. Fletcher has been City Manager of San Leandro (in 1951) Davis (in 1952) and San Diego, from 1961 until next month, when he is retiring.

He was Assistant City Manager in San Diego from 1955 to 1960. "· .. The city's purpose is the serve as t>ne of the institutions through which people can achieve and maintain the basic natural rights provided under Nature, God, and Law," commented Kremer under the tt!>plc "For what does the City exist?"

Forum on draft held tomorrow Nove!llber's official Forum meeting will convene tomorrow in F-22 at 11:00.

Discussion Will center on the problem of the draft and the Forum itself wlll be moderated by Freshman Mark Violet, chairman of the Forum planning committee.

This will be the third meeting of the Forum. Earlier this month was the second meeting but it was a combination of a Vietnam continuation and a Roy Archer, Newman Club meeting. political science instructor, lectured on U. S. - China relations to approximately sixty people.

The first Forum was well attended by individuals who were in favor of the Vietnam war. There was a noted absence of dissentors, objectors, or even those who disagree for the sake of disagreeing. .The evaluation sheets which were passed out at the enq of the meeting suggested that two points of view would ·have helped an otherwise "good" Forum.

According to Violet, all aspects of the draft problem will he discussed. All students are encouraged to attend, even if they do not have any particular opinion to express. By attending tbe meetings, one can find out how his peers feel on certain issues. Those who have definite ideas about the draft, Violet stressed, are above all urged to attend.

Nursing education board meetit1g to determine program begining

By Cecelia Lodico A meet~ng of the Board of Nursing Education and Nurse Registration to be held November 29 , 30 will determine when the new Palomar College Asso• ciate Degree Nursing Program will be initiated _ Tentative dates are February or June 1967 according to Mrs. Mary B. Fulton, program director.

The program's christening depends upon the college's success in acquiring two nursing instructors. If two such teachers can be hired by February, the program will begin in the spring. .However, if only one or perhaps no instructors are available at that time, the plan will have to be postponed until summer. Mrs . Fulton feels certain that the two needed educators will be acquired by the summer. "The instructors are hard to find," she said. "T here just

aren't that many around."

The teacher must have a Master of Arts degree with . a clinical nursing specialty or a Bachelor of Science degree with experience in teaching in a professional nursing school.

When started, the program will be open to 32 students , both male and female .

It will be a terminal program of four semesters and two summer sessions.

Upon completing the course, the student will receive an Associate of Arts degree and will be elig-' ible to take the State Board Test Pool examination required to secure a license for a registered nurse.

The student is responsible for his books , supplies, uniforms and other items, all of which will cost approximately $150.00 per year_

Spring registration scheduled to start December 1 Registering of current day students for the spring semster will begin December 1, 1966 and end January 26, 1967.

During this time the student sets up his schedule and is put into specific classes.

Students will first secure their Notice of Acceptance from the Admissions Office and then set up a counseling appointment at the Student Personnel Office.

Before seeing the counselor, the student should obtain a Spring Class Schedule and prepare a tr ial study schedule on the work sheet.

Registration materials should be obtained from the counselor on the day of the counseling appointment and all fees must be paid on this day.

Each student is required to attend a department group meeting at 10:00 a.mon Wednesday, January 18,1967. The reasons for this are (1) to verify programs of study; (2) for' orientation to department; (3) for orientation to Palomar; and (4) to make minor adjustments of study programs. Spring semester classes begin on January 30, 1967.

Veterans, dependents of Veterans and others receiving subsistence payments from any federal or state agency must report to the Veterans Secretary in the Admissions Office immediately following registration for the Spring Semester. Failure to do so will cancel all subsistence payments.

The editor and the news

By Penny H111 The other day as I was walking through the back parking lot, I spied Dave Sullivan perched on the bumper of a car, tuning his Gibson. •o.K. Dave, what's the deal?" "I'm practicing."

As the conversation progressed, he revealed that he, as well as Steve Lutes, were playing at the Heritage in Mission Beach that weekend. Inspired, I ventured to the folk house just to see what it was all about.

Finding 3842 Mission Blvd. with little difficulty, I marched in and discovered that, since it was Thursday, admission was only $.50 a couple. Weekend admission is $1.25 and regular week evenings are $.50 per person.

The entertainment ·had already begun, and the performer, to my surprise, was Grady Tuck, one of the stars of the International Club Hoot last year. Later I was informed that Grady was the manager of the Heritage which has been open for well over two years.

All this sleuthing was done between the incredibly short intermiss'ions. · While sipping my hot buttered rum cider drink, (flavored, of course, no liquor is served) I absorbed the sounds of honestly good folk music. The Heritage features blues, blue brass, and traditiona 1 folk music and is one of very few such institutions remaining in the country. It refuses to turn commerical, a wise decision, since there are many individuals who appreciate folk music in its purest form. Grady calls the house a "tribute to folk." · During the evening the Palomar students performed and during one of Grady's performances a large figure rushed up to the front, grabbed Grady's banjo, tuned it within a few seconds with Grady's guitar, and joined in the song. No one seemed to object to this burly, strong-

voiced joiner. When Grady introduced the man, Gil Turner, few were surprised.

Turner is booked for a December weekend and folk fans will be missing something if they don't take advantage of this opportunity. Not only is Turner a fantastic performer, he is also a former member of the New World Singers, a member of the Old Globe Theater, co-editor of BROADSIDE of New York. holder of a M.A. degree, and a Baptist preacher.

"It does still live," Grady remarked about folk music, hardly a statement open for debate after hearing the superior type of performers he has at his "house."

"A coffee house is a very unique busin0ss.

It is a paradox that very few have lasted," Grady said.

He infered that there were many myths about the people who run folk houses that are not necessarily true, but the Heritage has been able to overcome these myths and stay in business.

One of the reasons it is so successful is that it has a variety of entertainment programs. Sunday and Wednesday nights are hoot nights; Thursday is a guest evening.

Last Thursday about a half dozen performers were featured. The weekend shows feature a definite entertainment program. It is open from 8-12 week nights and from 8:00 to at least two on the weekends.

This weekend the group featured is the Atomic Steam Ratchet Spring Band along with Grady Tuck. The Sunday and Wednesday hoots are open to anyone wishing to participate as long as they sign up before 9:00.

"That is what has kept folk music alive--the people singing it," Grady insisted. •unless , people sing it, it dies."

Movie Review ~The ·

\ Re viewed by Steve Woodall It was 1917 when Duke Ellington wrote his first tune. He was a soda jerk and ragtime piano player in Washington D.C.'s Poodle Dog Cafe, and his composition was called, logically enough, "Soda Fountain Rag." It was never a big hit, but then Duke was only 18 years old. He still had a long way to go.

The ensuing forty-nine years have brought Mr. Ellington all the fame and success he can handle . He is, in the opinion of many, the greatest jazz musician alive.

His band has played concerts in England (the first in the 1930's) Africa, Japan, and Europe. And last week, when it was in San Diego, so was I. Duke Ellington is 67 years old, it is official. Leonard Feather's •Encyclopedia of Jazz" confirms it-- •b. 1899."

But it is hard to believe. I think his image of youthfulness can be largely attributed to the fact that the man has about eight-and-one-half tons of class, comprised of equal parts of urbanity, wit, and style.

The concert was part of the "Negro and the Arts" series sponsored by the University of California extension. A pre-concett symposium gave Duke a chance to expound some of his views on jazz and music in general.

But when the concert began, he was solid show biz.

The curtains slide open to the accompanyment of "Take the 'A' Train."

There are 13 men making all that good music and they're all wearing white blazers with blue ties.

(But wait!

There is no drummer! There is a very impressive barrage of Premier drums up there with nobody behind the.m.

He managed to arrive a couple of numbers later, to everybody's relief. The amazing thing was the band swung like crazy even without him. Our man, wearing a blue silk show biz jacket, steps to the microphone. He concludes hls opening statement: " . . . and we want you to know," he says, "that we love you madly."

Aw, go on. I bet you say that to all your audiences. And if he does, you can sense that it's because he means it.

\

- -·----·------\( :r

There are only 14 people in the entire world who are members of the Duke Ellington band. These are not ordinary musicians; these are larger-than-life Jazz Heroes. · Johnny Hodges has been the world's greatest alto saxophonist for a long time. He joined the band in 1928 (that's no misprint,) and this must be his ninemillionth gig. When he is not playing, he sits back with infinite cool, looking exquisitely bored.

1966: the year (Continued from page

If you lead against something, its all

right, if you lead for something, its suspected." , These days students can't talk freely on subjects such as "Is God dead?" or 11 Sex and Affection--Are they the same thing?" If you say something on these subject s today, people will hold you for it tomorrow. In what Dr. Sherriffs called the good old days, the 40's , you could talk about things without committing yourself.

Harry Carney I can't believe. He is a baritone saxophonist who joined Ellington a year before Hodges did. After all those years it's a wonder he has any lung left at all.

But he does. In fact, he must have a greater capacity for air than your average scuba tank. At the end of one memorable solo he held a note, one note, for about six hours and everybody was unconsciously gasping for breath-- air, air-- everybody except Harry Carney who just kept blowing that thing ...

Cootie Williams, his right cheek ballooning, blows tremendous gusts of wind through hls trumpet and moves with the emotional, down-home music he creates.

Dr. Sherriffs has studied the "ripple effect" in his class of 500 in a Psycology class. The "ripple effect" is where a small minority does something, such as hand- raising, and it spreads until it includes the ·majority. "I choose something and I want, and make. them think they want it."

The last point Dr. Sherriffs made was that today's students have little respect for their parents. There is relatively no courage of convictions in today's parents, and students don't understand authority.

Dr. Sherriff closed by saying that 1966 is a time "when we are in trouble." .

There will no longer be a democracy when the majority goes to sleep, and Dr. Sherriffs claims that this may be happening in this generation. Dr. Sherriffs quoted Edmond Burke, statesman of England, "All that is necessary for the triumph of evil is that good men do nothing."

Paul Gonsalves, a small guy, takes the solo spot with tenor sax that is almost bigger than he is. He squints his eyes, scrunches up his face, and does everything but jump up and down. But good sounds keep coming out; he has won the wrestling match.

He walks triumphantly back to his seat.

Cat Anderson raises his silver horn and nearly blows the tinsel off Civic Theater's walls. He screeches higher and higher, and the air is vibrating. It is a fitting finale to the evening.

People leave with their ears ringing happy.

QUESTION: IN THE RECENT ELECTIONS, A PROPOSITION TO LOWER THE VOTING AGE TO 18 WAS DEFEATED. HOW DO YOU FEEL ABOUT THIS? DO YOU FEEL THAT YOU, AS A COLLEGE STUDENT, ARE CAPABLE OF VOTING?

Reviewed by Jean Peasley Wild wasn't the word for it. It's a wonder the producers knew what they were in for when they filmed the next scene which, by the way, is heard to be featured in a full-color lay-out in this month's PLAYBOY. In the most attention-holding scene in movie, Ann-Margaret was transformed in a live female paintbrush, her body dripping with paint. She was swirled around on a large canvas coveredwith all colors of paint, Her hair was up in an exotic hairdo with a long braid, and her makeup inc luded long exaggerated sweeps of paint above her eyes.

The sight was almost appalling.

In between these upsetting scenes were more scenes of Ann-Margaret. When she falls into a day dre am, the v'iewers are "entertained" with a series of rapidly moving still shots of her.

An empathy is established. He has won us over. For the rest of their natural lives, everybody in the audience will love him madly. So it's a wild scene with him loving us madly and us loving him madly and all these mad love rays are zinging through the atmosphere, which is electric. Duke Ellington should be our ambassador to Russia or Mississippi or something.

Student Commentary

Swinger"

If you like movies withAnn-Margaret, Ann-Margaret, and Ann-Margaret, then you will positively love "The Swinger."

Whether or not this picture was meant to be a take-off on "girly magazines," or on other "sex-oriented" pictures, it just didn't rate in the humor departm9nt.

It had none of the classic jokes and puns found in such goodsporters as "Sex and the Single Girl."

What "The Swinger" was in actuality, was a picture full of Ann-Margaret.

She played a typical, all-American girl who wrote a typical, all-American love story and tried to get the publisher to print it in his typical, all-American sex magazine, "Girl Lure." (This was an exaggerated take-off on Playboy). Naturally the story she wrote was too "wholesome," and she was told to go rewrite it. What she came up with a story called "The Swinger", which was about a young girl who had done just _ al.oout e verything. (?)

However, after the publisher, played by Tony Franciosa had read it, he told her it held none of the spark of real life. Determined to get her story published, Ann-Margaret confessed that "The Swinger" was her life story. And to convince the publisher of this, s he let him know that something "wild" was happe ning at her house that night.

We love you madly

Mike Umphries, sophomore, business-As college students, I think that we do have enough responsibility to decide for ourselves the government that we want to control our education. If we are old enough to die, we are old enough to vote .

th•~

Alan Thompson

Verne Pershing, freshman, pre-vet-Well, I think that it's a good thing it was defeated, because at the age of 18 most people aren't mature enough to vote. They haven'thadenough experie nce in life.

Interviewer: Jean Peasley Photographer: Mario Jimenez

Alan Thompson, sophomore, general education--I think that 18 is a very young age because the kids, who are just out of high school, don't know what's going on. They don't have the responsiblity of adults. I think that 20 is the best age.

Linda Hopewell, freshman, nursing-I think if you are old enough to get sent to Viet Nam and drafted, then you are old enough to vote.

Pam Tulloch, sophomore, business--Yes. Because H!-year-olas of today are better informed than the 18- year-old of 50 years ago.

Most 18-year-olds understand politics and are willing to participate in them. Also, the 18- year-olds that are fighting in Viet Nam should be able to have a voice in our country's policies.

Marie Martinez , freshman, medical secretary--Yes . I feel that if you have the right to vote when you are 21, they should lower it to 18. I think that you are more capable when you are 18 and in college, then when you are 21 and out of college working. You are more up to date when you are 18. And, in my opinion, you are an adult when you are 18.

Tony Franciosa filled 'the bill as a New York playboy well, his charming personality managing! to get 'past his female box-office champ a few times.

The mov'ie was, in all, a poor attempt for a spoof, and an even poorer attempt at comedy. About the only things it had going · for was Ann-Margaret and some wild scenes of sexy girls. well, men-- isn't that enough?

Pam Tulloch

Rich Lapari, sophomore, business administration--Any stude~t who is above the age of 18, in college, is capable of making decisions for leaders from the municipalities to state and federal government. Basically I feel that these students in co~lege are more involved than the regular populus because their insight is brightened through economic courses.

Sports talk

by Buzz Ponce Just as surely as Chet Huntley knows who David Brinkley is, football prowlers at Palomar College has got to be on the rise. When a school of Palomar's stature can field two such outstanding football generals as Cece McGehee and Mack Wiebe, having back to back losing seasons make about as much sense as eating enchiladas for Thanksgiving Day dinner.--It just isn't the custom.

The '66 Comet grid squad has been blessed with a great amount of bad luck. In fact, this year's team could be compared with General George Custer in the fact that each has gotten its share of surprises and unfortunate happenings.

Freshmen who consistently dotted this years's starting line-up for Palomar will be next season's veterans. Performers such as Len Gann, Rick Houk, Chuck Nally, Pat Farner, Jim Stephens, and San Oliva are distined to bring a winning team back to the San Marcos campus next fall.

Without being overly confident or optimistic, Palomar partisans can look forward to a more rewarding win-loss record for next season.

Speaking of next fall. a word should be said about the athletes: on the foot-

ball squad who were relegated to bench duty this yeAr. 'l'hese players, mostly freshmen, would see a lot of action next year and are perhaps most typified by Larry Strakon. Strakon is a 5'10", 185 pound guard who is in his fourth semester at Palomar. A fellow with a great wit, this is Strakon's first year of actual football play. Needless to say, it was a rare moment when Larry got to see some action other than that caused by the cheerleaders. Nevertheless, Strakon and otherbenchwarmers such as Jim West, Tom Ward, Dennis Wolf, and Carlos Yanez never missed a practice session and were certainly key factors in the play of the Comets.

Players such as these are rare in the fact that they add the spirit and enthusiasm from the bench that is neccessary for any team. Certainly the unsung part of the Comet team, the benchwarmers, deserve a round of applause.

Comet Runners In Southern Cal JC Meet Randy Hartman, Coach Larry Knuth's top cross country runner, will not be able to run in the Southern California and State Junior College Cross Country meets. He has been sidelined by team physicians, because of both leg and ankle injuries.

Coach Knuth has named Dave Funderburk, Jim Adkins, Rick Fox, Bill Brown, Sal Castro, Felipe Serrato, and Frank Lomeli as the Comets' seven entries for the up coming meets.

Rick Williams and Tom Saxe round out the 10 man squad, which was edged last week by the Grossmont Griffs for undisputed 1st place in the Pacific Southwest Conference - title match, 27-29.

Despite the loss, Palomar are much stronger runners in the bigger meets and are considered one of the teams to beat next week.

Defending state champion Grossmont, along with Long Beach City College, Mt. San Antonio College and Pasadena City College also will be among the favored teams to win the state championship.

Photos by Jay Ahrend

The Comets harriers will be set this Saturday for the much talked about Califfornia State cross-country meet. The San Marcans are expected to fare well in the contest and if Coach Larry Knuth's athletes are all healthy, especially the coveted duo of Dave Funderburk and Jim Adkins, watch for Palomar to come home as the State Champs.

Profiles : Cory and Bickel Tailback Mike Cory and linebacker Bill Bickel, a pair of stalwart Comet footbailers who turned in stellar performance in Palomar's recent win over Imperial Valley, get this weeks nod as standout gridders for Cece MeGehee and Mack Wiebe's troops .

Cory, a second year man coming from San Dieguito High School, shifted his 6' 1", 19 5 lb. frame into full throttle against the Arabs and ran past the desert men for a total of 84 yds. It was also Mike who took quarterback Len Gann's pitchout and rambled into the end zone for an eight-yard touchdown run.

Last year an injury handicapped Cory for almost an entire season. Getting banged up in the Compton College contest of last fall, it was not until this year that the former Mustang flash was able to don football duds once again.

A bruising runner who would rather run over instead of around a defender, Cory alternates ,with Junior Morton at the tailback spot. Against Arizona Western College, whom the Comets met in their second contest, big Mike was tagged as Player of the Week for · his contribution to Palomar's play. In each of the Comet's encounters since then, Cory has been an added factor for Palomar. Certainly a one-twopunchof Cory

and Morton does little harm to the Comets.

Bickel. a former Ramona High School star in both football and track, received the starting call at an outside linebacker post for Palomar against Imperial Valley and showed what he could do.

Perhaps it was Bickel's play that unravelled the Arabs hopes of victory.

In an important fourth quarter play for Imperial Valley, diminuative Bill blitzted the Arab quarterback and dumped the enemy -offender for a sizeable loss.

After this effort, Imperial Valley had little chance for success, thanks to the play of bulldog Bill.

It may be most remembered about Bickel that it was this Ramona native · who wrapped up the victory over Compton College last year for the Comets.

Bullet Bill raced downfield for Palomar on a punt play and recovered the ball for the Comets on the invaders' 24 yard line.

This enabled Palomar to score and eventually to win the ball game.

It is Bill Bickel's spirit and enthusiasm that is most contributing to the play of Comet footballers, however. Overall, the ability and hustle of number 22 for Palomar has been an odd asset for Comet football.

Grossmont completely dominated the entire game with a combination of running and passing. With Griff quarterback Wash Walker at the helm, the Griffs moved the ball for a score in each quarter, doubling up in the 1st, 2nd, and 4th quarters.

The most serious threat for the c'omets in the entire game came in the fourth quarter, when Bill Sullivan caught a Griff kickoff and returned it 24 yards to the Comet 44 yard line. Mike Cory gained three yards and quarterbackGeorge Gregoroff threw to end Dave Tibbetts for a gainer of 38 yards, putting the ball on the Griff 14 yard line, where the Comets ran out of steam and gave the ball up on downs.

The toughest the Comet defense got was when the Griffs were threatening to score late in the third quarter, and were stopped because they couldn't move the ball against the Comet defense.

Playing their last game in a Comet uniform are: Dennis Ambriz, San Dieguito; Bill Bickel, Ramona;. Mike Cory, San Dieguito; Tom Dempsey, San Dieguito; Don Dence, Fallbrook; Larry Eaton, Hinsdale, Ill.; Jim Frank, Escondio; Norm Johnston, Orange Glen; Barney Lampe, San Marcos; Bob Lent, Fallbrook; Mike Manning,Escondido Junior Morton, San Marcos, Rod Nicol, Vista, Grant Raybould, Ramona; Larry Strakon, Vista; Bill Sullivan, San Dieguito; Dave Tibbetts, Dexter, Maine; Steve Coulter, Escondido; and Jim ValeriQ, Vista.

Perhaps soon the 21.72 acres adjacent to the campus on the northwest side will be added to the College. The acreage has been tentatively obtained at a compromise price of $4500 from the California League of Senior Citizens. The purchase will guarantee the college room to expand according to the master plan.

Easement problems are not a probability in the purchase; the proposed extenti.on of Artie Street will provide an access to the property.

Approval for closing the purchase has been given to the administration. The league originally asked $6500 an acre.

Palomar's Board of Governors made an offer of $4000 which was rejected by the League. Last Tuesday the compromise offer of $4500 was presented to the Board and it was verbally accepted by both parties.

Following his speech he received a standing ovation.

Sherriffs is a psychology instructor at U.C. Berkeley whose regular classes are nearly as large as the number of students attending the lecture.

Jefferson Gallery and The La Jolla Museum of Art were visited by an Art Guild sponsored group on Friday. Rusell .Baldwin, art instructor, stated that the purpose was "to show what is being done in art: and to fam111arize the students with the gallerys and what is going on in them."

Jefferson Gallery features a stable of approximately eleven artists who each have some of their work on continual exhibit. A one man show featuring one of the stable artists is a regular feature. Baldwin is l)ne of artists and he has three of his polychrome constructions on exhibit. The exhibit was not restricted to any one medium: it featured all meduims of art forms.

The Remington and Russel show was on display in the Museum. The pieces are paintings and sculpture from the turn of the century in the "wild and woolly west" era. The show is a large one which contains sixty to seventy pieces which takes approximately 60% of the Museum. Baldwin was "thr1lled" with the show. He explained that "a lot of contempory avant garde people won't" be as enthusiastic of Remington's presentation . Baldwin especially appreciated the use of color and the "fantastic" intricacles of the bronze sculptures.

In contrast to Remington was Rickburg who uses the same mediums . He has a contemporary approach to his express loris on the same theme as Remington.

Baldwin termed Rickburg' s work to be "realistic, but not as r ealistic as Remington."

Two abstract expressionist, Secunda an American and Icaza a contemporary Mexican artists, are also on display.

The two abstract expressionists work only in oil in this exhibit.

A string orchestra, Palomar's pipe organ, and the voices of the concert choir and chamber singers will blend together December 4th for a Christmas song presentation in C-5. The 2:30 and 4:30 concerts should last about an hour and a quarter and will feature part of the "Vivaldi Gloria."

Part of the "Gloria" will be presented to the student body during the annual Christmas program before the The singers have been vacation. practicing since September for the presentation.

Both the concert choir and the chamber singers are under the direction of Joe Stanford, graduate of Baylor University in Waco, Texas.

After earning his B.A. degree, Stanford put in a year of post-graduate study at Baylor and then moved to Whittier and studied at USC for two years. At USC he was a member of the USC chamber singers.

for small groups of people who would get together and sing for their own enjoyment. It was their past time •. just as something like going to movies is the peoples' past time now.

The concert choir, in contrast, sings larger pieces, such as cantatas, but still there are pieces that Stanford feels can be performed effectively by either group.

Each body has its own slate of officers.

The Choir's officers are PresidentDave Brees, Vice President Marilyn Je.r nigan, Secretary-Treasurer Donna O'Connell, and librarians Jean Culp and Barbara Essam. The chamber officers are President Dave Compton, Vice President Cathy Geist, Secretary-Treasurer Carolyn Baker, and the librarians are the same as for the choir.

Five PJC students go to San Francisco

Stanford is in his first year of teaching and during the past few months has started the . chamber singers, 19 individuals with the purpose of performing numbers written for small groups. It is offered as a regular class, Music 31 A, B, C, and D and is worth one unit of credit. The singers practice two hours a week but next semester the practice hours w111 be upped to three.

Five students from Palomar travel to San Francisco for the California Junior College Student Government Association fall convention December I, 2, and 3.

Attending the conference will be A, S, B, President Steve Wozniak, TELESCOPE editor Penny Hill, Reps-at-large Pat McArdle (soph) and Mark Violet (frosh) and Freshman Class President B111 Mason.

The concert choir has 43 members and is also a regular credit class with three hours a week. Its classification is Music 30 A, B, C, and D. Not all the students in either group are music majors, but a combination of almost every major.

Already this year the grouP3 performed at the Anniversary Dinner and at Dr. Gristngher's memorial service.

On December 13th they will sing for the Patrons and on January 13th will participate in the Winter Singing Concert at Grossmont College with other schools in Area 1. The chamber singers travel to Fullerton May 26 toparticipate in the Southern California Madrigal Festival.

The three day conference will be held ·at San Francisco's Hilton Hotel. Representatives from every junior college in California will be present.

The purpose of the convention is to discuss current problems in workshop sessions and present a possible solution in the form of a resolution or recommendation during the general sessions. After hearing pros and cons on the issue, the chair grants time for a caucus. The delegates from each area (Palomar is in Area 1) decide how they will vote.

When the resolutions and recommendations are passed, if they are of statewide importance, are then presented in the CJCA and if approved, they are presented to the California State Legislature.

The chamber singers are not, however, a Madrigal group. Their numbers are too many to be in this classification, but they are small enough to perform, what Stanford feels, should be done by smaller groups. Stanford explained that much of the music written in the Renaissance and Baroque periods was composed
