The legality of Likeitis, a student produced underground newspaper recently organized 1 was challenged yesterday in the ASB Council meeting. According to Bob Thoreson, ASB president, current rules of the Board of Publications prohibit such a publication on campus. At the present time 1 Likeitis is printed on school presses with paper purchased by its editors. Council members questioned the right of the editors to sell the newspaper also. It was decided that the matter should be turned over to the Publications Board. Council members then discussed who should represent the students on the board. After debate, it was decided that the present student members of the sixmember board should remain. Those members are Elizabeth Gunderson, Steve Woodall and Joan Kattelmann, aU of which have been associated with the Telescope and Focus magazine. Other members are Virgil Bergman dean of instruction; Theodore Kilman , head of the ·communications department and Gene Jackson, English department. The board is scheduled to report to the Council within two weeks of yesterday's meeting. Likeitis editors were requested to meet with the members to discuss the situation. In other business the Council was informed of "Choice '68)' a poll of all college campuses in the U.S. BobThoreson said the April 24 vote will cover candiate and issuepreferences and opinion survey. Day and evening students will be encouraged to vote and the council will devise a manner in which to insure each student only votes once. Palomar's finance committee reported that next year, the athletic department on campus will require approximately
$17 000 as opposed tothisyear's$13,000. Last year the district supplied the department with $81 000 and the ASB supplied $5,000. It was reported that the district will not appropriate more than $8,000 for the next year; therefore, leaving the remainder of $4,000 to be supplied by the ASB. Randy Hartman member of the finance committee, will meet with the coaches of the athletic department before their budgets are submitted in order to review the budgets with the coaches. President Bob Thoreson announced that he had been approached by a member of the John Birch Society to inform him that there were Group Sensitivity Training Classes taking place on the Palomar campus. After little investigation, Thoreson found this to be true . The Coun-
Bowman to request club finance reports Dean Robert E. Bowman will request all clubs sponsoring activities to make a record of all financial transactions for the rest of the semester. His action was caused by semester long lack of adherence to proper accounting systems by various clubs after dances. Dean Bowman's complaint is that there is no record of past transactions because the clubs have been "di vying up the money after the dance" to the bands and not depositing the funds with the college business office. Bowman stated that he "would send around a sheet to all clubs" this week concerning the matter and outlining the correct procedures. In financial matters the clubs should deposit funds with the office and pay their bills through the club treasurer.
Author to tell of work Ill Mexico for Newman Club tomorrow Arnold Senterfitt, author of "Airports of Baja California," will speak tomorrow in P-32 at 11 a.m. Senterfitt's speech, sponsored by the Newman Club, will be on his experiences as a part of the Flying Samaritans. Started in 1961, the Flying Samaritans is a club of persons in the medical profession who do voluntary work in Mexico. "All people i n v o 1v e d are c.ertified medical professionals," said Ernest Shiwanov Newman Club advisor. "These people go where there are no Mexican doctors available usally in the very remote villages. "The Samaritans leave on weekends, and work for about 10 hours in the clinics. Afterward, they go around meeting and talking with the people ." Doctors, nurses, medical technicians , x-ray technicians , truck drivers and anyone who wants to do volunteer work can join the group, according to Shivanov. "Since the Samaritans have beeu working school attendance has gone up
in these areas oecause the chilaren are m better health and feel more like going to school," Shiwanov added. "Also , the schools are extending their grade levels because the children are more able to continue their education. "Dr. D. Hoyt, the original instigator of the Samaritans. found that he could not swing the program alone. This is when he contacted Senterfitt. The program has expanded since that time, now containing four major clinic areas. one over 500 miles from the l\1 ex i c 1!..!1-A mer ic an border. S hi wan o v said that Senterfitt is working on another book "Airports of Mexico and British Honduras." The Flying Sam aritans meet the first Wednesday of every month at the Aerospace Museum at Balboa Park. Further information can be obtained by writing P. 0. Box 23166 c/o Arnold Senterfitt. San Diego. California. 92123. Newman Club will resume its weekly meetings next Wednesday at 11 a.m. in F-22.
cil therefore, referred the matter to the Professional Procedures Committee of the Faculty Senate.

As ASB vice-president, Hauptman is ICC chairman and was co-ordinator of Club Week activities. "I'd also like to commend all the participating clubs for their fine efforts and the individuals who did the fine job of putting the Clubscope," commented Hauptman. Begun by publication of Clubscope, Club Week started at 11 a.m. in the Student Union last Monday with introductions of Student Council members and club presidents followed by short musical numbers by the Comet band. Following the assembly the Circle KPep Club Inter-club invitational tricycle races were started by Hauptman. But before the women's and later the men's race entrants could get on the starting line1 melee broke out with each contestant soaked with water, confetti and whipped cream . After one quarter-mile race, Newman Club girls finished first. Le Ann White, Kathy Whelan and Rita Waymond were the Newman winners . Coming in second were Betty Taylor, Nancy Palmer and Shelley Agerer for Pep Club; and third place winners were Kathy Taff, Diane Schekel and Sandy Judson for Gamma Sigma Chi. The Newman Club won the men's race also. First were Dan Connelly , Brian Kelly and Ed Gladys on the team's modified custom-built trike. A minute later, Joe Wu forYoungDemocratscame in second while two minutes later Kim Clark, Charlie Brown and Glenn Hayashi rolled in third. Next to finish was Circle K with John Robirds, Ron Simecka and George Rotsheck . Winning contenders will receive their
and sale drew all the attention for the day. Held in the Student Union, the auction netted the club over $30. However/ the slave auction did not meet last year's record on $110. Girls participating in the annual Vets ellib event were Goldie Barker, Linda Welch, Karen Schmidt, Carrie Cladwell and Heather Hodson. Also auctioned off were Cheri Chambless; Anne Taylor; Linda Reed; Paula Allsweet; Dean Robert E. Bowman, auctioneer; and Fred Hewling, club president. But the Vets didn't fare as well the next day in a Vets-Faculty softball game , losing 17-14. The Vets will again play the faculty at 2 p.m. April ~ on the Comet diamond. The same day , the Women's Recreation Association won over the coaches in two out of three volleyball games. Gamma Sigma Chi members had a "very successful" sucker sale according to Jan Christensen club president. The sale will continue this week. Political clubs were also on the move last week. The Peace and Freedom Club had a love in Friday with the "Old Age Adjustment" providing the entertainment. The Young Democrats sponsored a dance Friday night. Conducting their second poll this year, the Young Republicans surveyed polltical possibilities. Friday also saw the freshman and sophomore tug of war. The frosh lost but "we'd like to see a re-tug because sophs started tugging before anyone said to tug " lamented Brice Larsen, frosh class president. The club also ran a dunking booth. Last of the activities for Club Week was the AMS hootenanny.

THE TE.L ESCOPE In 1962, the Student Publications Board established a Code of Ethics with the cooperation of the me-mbers
of all campus publications. Local newspaper publishers were asked to comment and they said the code was complete. Two statements from that code are pertinent today: •wtth1n the framework of school cove rage , sensationalism, glorification, and favoritism should not be tolerated. • Coverage of national or international occurrences should be governed by the proximity of the event and the direct relatto.nshlp of the event to the students.

Most Awitchboard operators are stereo-typed as gum-cnewmg dumb blondes who manage to tie . up communications to the extreme anguish of the executive staff. Our swi:tchbaard operator is a remarkable woman who rarely causes the administration or anyone anguish with fuddled lines. She daily channels about 1,000 calls into and out of our college community with awesome efficiency. Behind the large buzzing humming machine that links Palomar to the outside world, sits a unique personality. Her official name and title is Mrs. Elsie McNabb, switchboard operator and keeper of the college communications. But to the 185 people who regularly use one of the college's extensions , she is simply Elsie; the person who knows where to find everyone or who to ask for needed information. Elsie is a special person and you know it once you hear her voice. She doesn't sound like BeU Telephones 1 stagnant nasal recordings which ask you rather impersonally what your problem is all about. There is a quality of inquiry that denotes a special interest in your particular need. "Elsie is a kind of institution within an institution; she has a very deep and abiding interest in the college--a devotion. She also has a real concern for people and their problems, o s aid Dr. Frederick R. Huber , Palomar president. Elsie simply expl.afns " I'm interested in every call and every person; I like people." She will try her best to help you find out information or locate an elusive instructor or administrator. Elsie is a public information source , a private detective and a comfort in an emergency. One of the most graphic ~9isplays of her talents occured with the fall bomb scare. During that time she was completely in control of the situation. The sheriff's office cited her effective identification of the voice type and for remembering exactly what was said. Elsie stayed on the job and took control of the buzzing switchboard. Once the word got out to the surrounding communities, many people called the college in search of their children or just wanting information on the situation.

'Likeitis ' -- - Above board or underground Along with Palomar's first Club Week also came Palomar's first underground newspaper. This week's question is "what do you think of the underground newspaper now on campus?" Jeff Jones , sophomore--"It's too hard to find a copy anywhere but the content of the paper is very good."
Mrs. Elsie McNabb is constantly busy at her switchboard in the Administration wing. She is able to keep track of a large part of the faculty and keep inter-campus communications running smoothly through her ever-busy board.
Dan Perkins , sophomore--"Good idea. This student body needs comments on all facets of political beliefs. Freedom of the press is one of the fundamental rights whether we believe in the opinions or not . " Marsha Johansen freshman--"It's very interesting. I enjoyed reading it. Pretty good for Palomar." Janis Rose, sophomore-- "I feel the underground newspaper is something that should have been on this campus long ago. The people who publish this paper are doing nothing but exercising their right to a 'free press' and are allowing others to do so. In my opinion, being against this publication denotes an undemocratic attitude." Neil McAfee. bookstore manager --"I believe the paper is a fine idea and

PRESIDENT PRAISES PLEASANTRIES AND WORK Dr. Huber said, "Even though the work pressure has' increased ten-fold in the last five years, she continues to operate pleasantly and always has a word for everyone." The fact that she speaks to everyone , and nearly everyone speaks to her when they pass the board is the key to her detective ability on locating everyone. Other clues that she uses is remembering who was on what line in the various offices, and learning the habits of various members of the administration "Sometimes they just as soon as I wouldn't find them." Elsie said . "It's a challenge to hit the right person at the right t.ime." Besides plugging in calls to various offices and locating people, she also performs their services to both the college and community. Citizens call in about job placement, newspapers call for information, and then there are the daily emergencies. Usually they are cases of students> taking the wrong keys or forgetting books and lunches, notices of doctor and dentist appointments. All of these extras put " the extra mileage" on Elsie everyday in trying to locate one student out of all those on campus. Despite all of the extras and various problems., Elsie does like her job. "It's nice to be at the hub to see all that is going on. I am keenly interested in what's happening and I never get tired of it; it's really exciting for me. The job fills my need for helping people." Elsie began working for Palomar college in 1954 as the bookstore manager. She recalls that the store "was a little hole in the wall in the business office they serviced about 350 students." She set up the present bookstore in the Student Union complex. Then she began to have trouble with her eyesight and she took time off to treat her condition. In 1960 she came back and was offered the job of switchboard operator. She recalls that "it just electrified me. I had been an operator before.andi.t had been a while since I had been to work." Her eye trouble had left her partially sighted but it didn't effect her spirit to try something different for her job. " I had to learn to feel for the holes to plug into . I only worked for a couple of. hours at first and the other operator helped me . " Elsie recalls i'that we had match sticks and everything else stuck on the switch board to help me find the connections. It was slow at first, but I learned . Everyone has been so wonderful to me and patient," she emphasized. The Telephone Company fixed permanent tabs on the connections so that she can find them easier. THANK YOU FROM THE TELESCOPE Almost two years ago I first met Elsie , It was by Telephone and I was a beginning reporter trying to find out some information. I didn't know what to do and I asked her to help me . With her usual inquiries about my problem answered she found the person I had to speak to. The story wasn't very well done, but thanks to Elsie I had gotten the correct information·· Since that first time she has done countless things for both the newspaper and the editors. It has become policy in the Telescope office to check with Elsie when in doubt about anything. She usually has the answers or knows who will have the entire story for us It's not just the information that she gives us . Whenever a problem is causing a bad hassle with the paper Elsie always has something cheerful to s·ay, no matter howbusythathummingboardis keeping her. She is the type of person that you bring flowers to just to see her face light up and show her that all her efforts are appreciaterl. Usually reporters ask the editor for a good information source and when the editors don't know we turn to Elsie .
