Rotating assemblies approved by faculty The fa..,ulJY.haS passeu a recommendation to rotate the assembly hour at 9 and 10 a.m .. according to Scott Bowman, co-chairman of the student-faculty assemblies committee. "The recommendation will probably go on to the administrative council for approval , " Bowman said. The research started when students were given a poll in their physical education classes.. The choices of the poll were-1. To leave the assembly schedule as it now stands. 2. To use a rotation basis and alternate scheduling of the assembly between 9 and 10 a.m., therefore canceling a total of three or four of any one class during the semester. 3. To use the 11 a.m. assembly hour, which would necessitate the closing down of the snack bar due to loud noise (this rul,, holds to assemblies featuring speah•rs). "Over 800 students decided they would rather have the rotation of assembly hours. The decision was made by a definite majority," Bowman remarked. The students' request was passed by the Faculty Senate Monday.
Assembly schedule 1'he Administrative Council has approved the assembly schedule for Friday, January 19. The assembly will feature all candidates running for ASB offices. Classes beginning at 8 a.m. 9 a.m.

Election ballot lists 44
A record 44 candidates .a re running for 19 offices in Monday's ASB election. The campaigning includes three party slates--Democrat, Republican, and Peace and Freedom. Also on the ballot will be an amendment to the constitution that the term of office for all elected ASB officers-except representatives--shall be one year. There are 14 candidates on the Republican ballot, 10 candidates on the Peace and Freedom ticket and 8 candidates on tile Democratic tic::ket. _ The large number of candidates will probably necessitate a run-off election on Wednesday, January 24. In order to win, a candidate must have the majority of votes cast for that office.
Robert F. Thoreson, pre-law major in economics, is running on the Republican ticket. He is a member of the Vets Club and a past delegate to the state YR convention. Thoreson was a sergeant in the Army and Junior Class President in high school. "I plan to maintain tighter controls over the bookstore, especially on the $1.50 per hour help. " He is for expanded expenditures to athletics and the speech team. He is against student apathy.
President
Vice-president
Don Dilworth, an economics major. says he believes "student government should have concerned leadership, which will provide constructive planning this next semester." Dilworth, on the Young Democrats teacher eva 1u at ion committee, will run independently. He is for: teacher evaluation, looking into the budget, clarification of the speaker code, clarifying the Inter-Club Council's function, and changing the terms of ASB officials. Dilworth was president of his junior and senior high school classes and lettered in varsity tennis. Mike Gunderson, a psychology major, is hlnning independent because of ''honest concern for student affairs , not running for the sake of politics." He is the present AMS president, a past representative-at-large and has been on the budget committee of the ASB. Gunderson plans to transfer to San Francisco
State. "My two years experience gives me vast insight as to the runnings of an effective student go v e r n men t. I've always been aware of the changes that must be made. As president I will work to make these changes."
Paul H au p t m a ri, a social science major, wants to have at least one of the eight representatives-at-large in the council office during the lunch hour available to students, if he is elected. Hauptman, part of the Republican slate, says he would do his best to initiate legislation that would include: having council meetings moved to P-32 , giving greater control of student funds to students, and holding more entertainment assemblies. Joe Wu, journalism major, is being backed by the Young Democrats Club of which he is president. Wu has been a representative-at-large, an ASB publicity chairman, is on the YD's teacher evaluation committee and is Telescope club news editor. He supports a "club day'' to arouse interest in club activities and the re vision of the "somewhat vague" statement of policy of the ICC. "One
could say that my program is based on 'contagious enthusiasm'," said W:U.
Secretary Cheri Chambless, pre-med major, states that she "enjoys working with the ASB in their many functions." Past political experience includes high school ASB offices. A Republican candidate, Cheri is a cheerleader and has membership in Palomar's Girls Service Club, Young Republicans, Campus Crusade for Christ, and Phi Rho Pi. Karen Schmidt, theatre major, feels that "there is a need for a balance to be kept in the council. I want to be more involved in the student government at Palomar, and assist in all ASB activities." Karen, a Democratic candidate, plans to continue work on the Student-Teacher Evaluation program.
Treasurer Janis Rose , sociology major, has previously served as an ASB representative, Inter-Club Council secretary, and ICC representative for AWS. Janis is running on the Democratic ticket.
Reps -at-large Loren Bailey, accounting major, is running as a Republican candidate. He states, "I will do my best to estab(continued on page 2)

Gene M. Jackson, acting head of Palomar's English Department, will give the talk and conduct a discussion on the · subject Thursday evening at 7 p.m. in C-5.
Gene M. JacksQEl . During the presentation Jackson said he would stress the nature of reality concerning literature for children. He also will make comparisons between that literature we take for granted as good (because we have read about it in newspapers), and that which sometimes is clas$ed as not good because it is more imaginative~

PEP CLUB TO SPONSOR DANC E The Pep Club is sponsoring a dance featuring The Lyrics after the UCLA Frosh-Comet game January 27. The dance will be held in the Student Union from 10 p . m . to 1 a.m. Highlight of the dance will be the performance of The I.;.Yric's new record released nationally this week. Club elections are planned for next Tuesday's meeting.
lnpe de Vega means business There will be an election next week . Vote. Do your thing right there on the ballot. Write in Lope de Vega for Sophomore Class Treasurer. It is my contention that Lope de Vega will make one hell of a Sophomore Class Treasurer. Lope de Vega is an honest candidate. He has a whole bunch of integrity. Also past experience. In high school he was Prom Chairman. Not only that, but he is concerned about the issues. He wants to represent the students. Definitely, he is for the student. Also, he is concerned about the bookstore and the snack bar. One time, a German book cost him eight dollars and another time he choked on a car-
rot from the snack bar. Almost broke his trachea. Also, he doesn't like some of his teachers. He is a Christian . He is going to transfer to San Diego State. He is thinking about maybe being engaged to a girl from Poway. He hopes to be a worthwhile citi zen upon the attainment of his baccalaureate degree or M.A., he can't decide which. He thinks Vietnam is okay but not good . He is your man . Integrity. Honesty. Forthrightness. He wants to r epresent the student. You are a s tudent, aren't you? Lope de Vega means business. Write in Lope de Vega for Sophomore Class Treasurer. --Steve Woodall
First we must have money Ground plans for formation of a student group were recently announced by the Administration. The purpose ofthe group would be to forward important information to the voting citizens of the surrounding communities on the March 12 tax election. At the present time instructors are contributing names of logical people to tell the Palomar story to the community. The student council is cognizant of the plan and their help has been asked for in the drive. After the semester begins, Dr. Frederick Huber, Palomar president, will call a special convocation to fully explain the ramifications of the central ideas. Such a group could turn the election to favor Palomar; all that is needed is a majority of the votes cast. This is a feasible task if enough students will form together and try to put the theory into organized action. The Palomar College student body has the opportunity to mobilize into an effective student power that can benefit both the college and community.
Ronnie fiddles
Palomar can't continue to expand and grow academically without the funds a successful campaign will provide. The citizens enjoy numerous benefits stemming from the college . Perhaps if they are reminded the vote will change. It is interesting to note that most candidates for the upcoming ASB elections have not featured such an important idea. Campaigners speak of changing and expanding programs to benefit the student body. These are good endeavors and they cost money. At the present time the administration is worrying about amassing money to cover operational costs, and there is little if any room for expansion of programs. Our prospective student leaders should take an active part in the formation of the group if they are truly interested in the student body. First we must have money, then expansion and additions of new programs may become a reality. --Joan Kattelmann
while students burn
The horrible truth of just how influential Gov. Reagan has been in his dickering with the University Budget became dbvious by the recommended. $156 fee in9rease. After a whole year of hesitation and trying to feel out the political winds blowing down from the State House, the Regents have, as another budget battle begins, given in to the governor's pressure. It is perhaps the ultimate defeat for those who wish to keep the University out of politics. Ronnie Reagan wants to see students at California's colleges paying tuition. He believes the students are living off
the taxpayers , and he feels it is time to drop "free" higher education. But how can we drop something we don't have ? Free education is a myth; it doesn't exist in this state. A student pays at least $1,000 for one year of education. The power of students and administration has fallen to the governor. Those who believe in the University should not let this happen again. Students s hould stop putting themselves in a position where they are forced to accept quietly the decisions handed down to them. --Michael Gunderson
SOPHOMORE CLASS TO STAGE BOOK SWAP The Sophomore Class will sponsor its third semesterly book swap on Tue sday, February 6, and Wednesday, February 7, in R-4 at 11:00, according to AudreyCharlotte Jaques , class president.
