Student Court P-lanned; open meeting Tuesday Tuesday, in a semi- secret meeting of the ASB council, a proposition was discussed for the establishment of a Student Court. Sheridan Hegland, of the political science department, spoke on behalf of the motion, and assured the council that they would have the whole-hearted backing of the administration in the establishment of the court. Final action was deferred for the time being by Kim Clark, president of the student body. A committee was established under the direction of Bill White in order to investigate the plan for student court. Of the plan, White said that jurisdiction would have to be specifically spelled out. "We aren't sure of the jurisdiction yet, " he said. "However, student disciplinary matters would come under it." He declined to state what those matters would be. As for penalties, White, Clark and vice-president Ron Simecka all agreed that the final power would be expuk!itory. That is to say, that the court could suspend a student for a period of time
varying from a week to semester for breaking a rule falling under the jurisdiction of the court. Other penalties may include the revoking ofparkingpermits and ASB cards. No method has been agreed upon for the selection of justices for the courts. The plan backed by the president, vice president and judicial chairman would call for two courts, an inferior court and supreme court. Students would be brought before the inferior court and triP-d. If acquitted, the case is dropped. If convicted , a student has the right of appeal to the supreme court. If the verdict is upheld and suspension is the sentence, the student is left to appeal to the Board of Governors. Asked how students would be forced to attend the court, White said, though it was impractical, "Strong arm methods would have to be used . " A system of fines and penalties is also under discussion. The committee headed by White will meet Tuesday at 11 a.m. in R-3 for discussion. Any interested member of the student body is urged to attend.
Proposed Student Cour1 discussed by Hegland (Ed. Note: One of the major figures in the possible instigation of a Student Court on this campus is political science instructor, Mr. Sheridan Hegland. In an effort to gain insight into the reasons behind the move The Telescope conducted a "question and answer" type interview with Mr. Hegland. Following are Mr. Hegland's answers to questions posed by The Telescope.) TELESCOPE-What will be the initial jurisdiction of the student court? HEGLAND- This will be an outgrowth of dialogue, study, discussion. As thecourt deserves to grow in prestige, it will. Initially, jurisdiction might be limited to matters of discipline. TELESCOPE-What avenues of appeal will be open to defendants? HEGLAND-There would necessarily be a court of appeals. Action by the appeals court would be subject to being overridden, say, by a four to one vote by the Board of Trustees. TELESCOPE-Since the final decision will be made by the Board of Governors, exactly what power will the Student Court have? HEGLAND-A man has the right to be tried by his peers. If the Student Court said the student was not guilty, the matter could not be appealed. Only the defense may appeal. TELESCOPE-How will cases be brought before the Student Court? HEGLAND- By a complaining party--presumably often the administration. TELESCOPE- For what purpose do you feel that a Student Court would be beneficial to the student body of this campus? HEGLAND-Provide experience in real-life procedures, enhance an appreciation of democracy, broaden opportunity for involvement in governmental processes. TELESCOPE-Do you feel students are really qualified to sit in judgment of their peers? HEGLAND-Of course. TELESCOPE-How will the Student
Student nurses hold workshop Palomar student nurses will hold a workshop on Curriclum Development, Saturday October 26, at International Hotel, Century Blvd. in Los Angeles 9 a.m. to 4:30p.m. The program will include a skit entitled "Why---Why?---Why?" presented by the members of Student Nurses Association of California. Shirley S. Chater, R.N., Ph.D associate professor, School of Nursing, U,C.S.F ., will speak on "Knowledge Keeps No Better Than Fish." "From Objective to Learning Experience " will be the topic discussed by Fay 0. Wilson, R.N., M.S. , professor and chairman, Nursing Department, L.A. City College. Group discussions will follow both the morning and afternoon presentations. The International Hotel is locatednear the Los Angeles International Airport and free limousine service is available from the airport.
Court be set up? HEGLAND-The judges would be appointed by appointing authorities. These appointing authorities would be selected as a result of discussion and listed in the plan which would be brought before the Board. TELESCOPE-What penalties will be used? HEGLAND-Those the court feels are appropriate. Implementation would be by the Board of Trustees action. TELESCOPE-Why do you want a Student Court? HEGLAND-Government can't fly on one wing--the student legislative body. Effective government requires a dedicated, independent judicial branch. The chairman on the Palomar Board has expressed support for the formation of a Student Court. Palomar students must accept the obligations incumbent on every American citizen--participation in, involvement with democracy.
ASB Council deciding on student poll Student opmwn may soon be knownby the student leaders, if the plan now in committee for an opinion poll of school matters is approved. The poll, in its present stages, was assigned to committee at a semi- secret meeting of the ASB council Tuesday. Consisting of six pages, the questionaire investigates seven areas . The first interest area to be tested is intended to see how students react to athletic events, lectures, speech team travels, etc. Secondly, the students will be asked opinions of the ASB government and its various programs. The third area of question is that of curriculum. Students are asked for an affirmative or negative reply on the mer- . it of the curriculum of the school. Com- · plaints will be accepted in a space allocated for the purpose. Fourth, students will be asked about their feelings concerning the ASB budget. .Also, students will be asked what they would like to see built if the funds were available. Choices range from a new bookstore to stadium lights for the field. Also, here students may express an opmwn on ASB card prices and whether or not they should be mandatory. A brief question of stance on three local school funding issues conpletes the fifth area of the poll. Committee interest will be guaged by the sixth question. Also, on the final page of the poll, club participation is questioned. The question of whether the poll will be held will be discussed again at the weekly meeting of the ASB council at 11 a.m. Monday in R-3.
English satirist Peter Dickinson is shown answering questions after his
lecture. The lecture was on the value of satire. Dickenson is assistant ed-
itor for the famous British magazine "Punch".
ANTI-WAR PARODIES OUT
Dickinson discusses satire By Lois Cavalier
"Stalking around all of our highest ideals and noblest political theories should be a satirist saying 'if your look at it from over here, the thing is ridiculous'." This was the highlight of Peter Dickinson's speech to an audience of about 400 Wednesday night in the second of the 1968-69 Palomar College and Community Service lecture series. Dickinson is the assistant editor of "Punch", Britain's leading magazine of humor and satire for over a century. He regularly contributes articles and poetry, and has published several books. "An effective satirist must make people laugh, be very knowledgable of his subject, and attack the weakest part of the adversary·," he said. "Much too much satire fails because a man has a good idea but doesn't think about it enough, like having a juicy steak and cooking it all wrong." What you really want to do, and this is very difficult, is to persuade little armies of people marching past your 'door' , most of whom would rather be watching 'Hogan's Heroes', to join in and march behind you," Dickinson said in expfaining how effectual wording in satire can be persuasive. Laughter, that "extraordinarybarking
'Jon Hazelton' sought letter policy changed Will the real Jon Hazelton step froward? It has been brought to the attention of the Telescope that the name , Jon Hazelton, writer of a recent letter to the editor does not belong to a student at this college. Members of the English Department researched Hazelton's name through school files and found that the . name does not belong to any student on campus . Last spring, the Telescope also received and printed a letter from "Jon Hazelton" concerning the editorial content of the paper. No investigation was undertaken at that time and the name of "Jon Hazelton" was forgotten until last week when the editor of the Telescope, Steve Schneider, found a letter, typewritten on lined notebook paper, in his mail. Upon reading it, he and several other editors decided to publish it. Upon investigation between the two letters, it is the opinion of the Telescope that both letters were written by the same person. The question now is, who is Jon Hazelton? Due to this unforseen problem, the Telescope hereby changes it's editorial policy as follows: Any letter turned into the staff for publication must be signed by a real name. with accompaning ASB identficationcard number. Names wil 1 be withheld upon request. The Telescope regrets any inconvenience caused by the letter.
sound we all make", orginated among the primitive ape packs in the African desert, according to Dickinson. "When the apes fought and one finally conquered another, the loser gave in with a nervous 'tee hee• sound. The victor gave forth with a significant 'ha ha' and as the tension relaxed and the air cleared all the other apes standing around went 'yuk yuk'."
"And so, in the same way today we use satire to slay our enemy, to relieve tension and to renew our world-weary minds," he said. "The attempt to degrade or destroy a man or a group of men or ideas may seem primitive but it is still in use." As an example of what satire can do to a personality, Dickinson told of England's ex-prime minister Harold MacMillan, who headed a conservative government at a time when the economy was good and was given most of the credit for a thriving situation, "as near to an all-powerful politician as could be produced by a democratic process". At this time, as MacMillan rode the crest of his career, a series of cartoons satirized him as "Super Mac", a takeoff on Superman. When suddenl y MacMillan became ill, the "fizz went out of the economy," and DeGaulle determined that he did not want Britain in the Common Market, the "SuperMac" image was adversely remembered by the people and in the next election a new prime minister was elected by a few votes. Dickinson read the last few sentences of "Gulliver's Travels" as a sample of what he considers useless satire. 'This part of Swift is, he says, "but useless acid poured on our remaining bestiality. Satire must hold water on its own terms, or it is of no more use than the beating and howling of hermits in the desert.'' Asked during the question and answer period which followed the lecture whether he considers all of "Gulliver's Travels" to be wasted satire, he said that he had not meant to be unfair to Swift
25 Viet veterans invited to game Approximately 25 Vietnam veterans from the Camp Pendleton Naval Hospital will attend tomorrow night's football game, thanks to efforts by the cheerleaders. Kathy Taff, instigator of the marine visit, invited 100 wounded Marines but was told by Camp Pendleton that there were not that many men who could attend. "They told us that the men well enough to attend the game would rather go home," Miss Taff said. "And that those who weren't well enough to go home couldn't come to the game anyway. But they have promised us about 25 men." Each marine will be assigned a female escort for the game and will be treated to refreshments by the cheerleading squad.
as a writer and referred to the early part of the book as a "beautifully managed attack on the courts of his time". "Since everyone is aware today that war is useless and disgusting and not glorious, the humorist can no longer do much with a nti-war satire," he said. "It is very difficult to produce good satire on the Viet Nam war."
Dickinson read two of his own works. The first was a "love poem" re-phrasing Elizabeth Barrett Browning in a parody of the sexual response of human beings under laboratory conditions as stated in the controversial best-seller "Human Sexual Response" published in 1966. His second work concerned "Heart transplants and that kind of caper" about a fellow named Smith who from childhood gradually replaced all of his organs with transplants. Dissatisfied with anything but the brain of a genius, he finally received one in an operation and: "Alas! poor Smith! when he awoke He found he was some other bloke." Dickinson also quoted from "The Monolithic View of Mirrors", a satire on the views of the Roman Catholic church on "the Pill". The writer used another form of satire by taking a position "so extreme as to be self-parody". Shock can also be used in satire. "Shock numbs the mind, but the more clever you are, the more you have to say, the more shock value you can use." Referring to "obituaries" on stillliving people which have been published in "Punch" recently, he said that there is no adverse response to the shock value unless the satire is not well done. "Then we get some corking complaints", he said. This was to illustrate his often-repeated point that well-done satire is well received, but "a small, silly joke defeats itself 15 times over". During the question and answer period, Dickinson was asked what editorial position "Punch" takes. He said it is "vaguely left-wing, since England is basically socialistic, but still fairly schizophrenic about it". He said he accepts good humor of almost any political leaning when he can find it, since "not many papers in the world give encouragement to funny writers". "The greatest goal of satire is in altering society and relaxing the mind with the tool of humor", he said.

The Panthers are led by 225-pound fullback John Forrester and All-Eastern Conference quarterback Bert Karerr, a 10.2 sprinter and an excellent passer. Their offensive line averages 207 pounds compared to the Comet's 204 pound average. Defensively, the Panthers have a 17 pound per man advantage in the line . Chaffey's defensive line averages 214 to the locals 19 7. Assisting Forrester and Karerr on the attacking unit will be hefty tackles
Bob Vandervort, a 220 pounder, and Bob Erwin, a 6 ft. 230 pounder. Another Panther who could give the Comet defense a bad time is wingback Jim Monson. He is extremely fast and is considered a good pass receiver. Defensively, Chaffey is piloted by middle linebacker Dave Boe, a 6 ft. Other defensive 2 in., 215 pounder. standouts include cornerbacks Al Blair and Ernie Viveros, and ends Dan Miller and Bob Nichols.
Offensively, Palomar will make two lineup changes for the Kiwanis game. Mike Garver moves in at the splitend position and Ramese Faleafine will get the call for the injured John Houchin at fullback. Reserve quarterback Jerry
"This game will show what we're made of," commented Palomar defensive coordinator Tony Lynds . "We'll ::>ee if the team can bounce back from two close losses." Lynds was refering to the four points that have kept the Palomar gridders from a perfect season. The Comet touchdowns against the Owls came on a two yard plunge by Gathers and a 24- yard pass play from Lucia to Ashby. Karl Heine booted one extra point, but a bad snap from center kept him from getting off a PAT after the second touchdown, giving the nationally ninth- ranked Owls the margin of victory. Palomar lost a chance to pull it out of the fire on the final play of the game when Louie Ruiz was knocked out of bounds on the Citrus 30 with three seconds remaining, but the referee failed to stop the clock.

Rocket scrimmage draws big crowd; Thine/ads stumble revenue aids ASB scholarship fund against San Diego; North County fans got a taste of professional basketball action last Monday night as the San Diego Rockets staged their first annual Northern San Diego County Basketball Clinic and Intersquad scrimmage in the Palomar Dome. A crowd of some 500 basketball enthusiasts poured into the gym for the 7 p.m. affair. The first half of the two hour session was devoted to the clinic. Members of the Rocket squad performed basic individual fundamentals, team drills and ran through a series of offensive patterns. Rocket Head Coach Jack McMahon narrated the clinic, explaining to the audience how each play worked, why it was used and its importance in professional competition. Fundamentals stressed
One of the most popular segments of the clinic was the portion devoted to basic individual fundamentals. Here, members of the Rocket squad practiced lay-ups and the popular dunk shots that are now outlawed in high school and . college basketball. ¡ ¡ Team drills focused on ball handling manuevers and play- making, while the offensive patterns were used to explain the different offensive plays the Rockets use in competition throughout the National Basketball Association. At 8 p.m., McMahon turned over the microphone to Rocket publicity director, Dick White, who announced the action in the intersquad game.
Riley from the University of Kentucky. Seven foot one inch Henry Finkel headed the "gold" team at center, while the all-time scoring leader from USC, John Block, John Trapp, an alumni of Pasadena City College and Nevada Southern and Aaron Sellers from St. Benedicts were at the forward positions. Art "Hambone" Williams from San Diego City College and California State Polytechnic College at Pomona and Harry Barnes from Northwestern were at the guards. Scoring different
Previously planned as one game with two 20 minute halves, the Rockets decided to play two separate games. McMahon explained that the scoring would be different; one point per basket instead of the normal two points, and that on fouls, the player would have to make both free throws for a point to count. According to the Rocket coach, this was the way scoring was handled in their regular practice sessions. Toby Kimball' s jump shot gave the "green" squad the first game after a contest. A ten minute intermission, used for rest and to the benefit of autograph hounds, divided the two games. In the second encounter, the "gold" squad came through to nip their opponents on Art Williams set shot, 20-19. Each game was to 20 points. All revenue above the Rocket expenses went toward the MiraCosta and Palomar College ASB Scholarship Fund .

Ward is pushing starter Rocky Lucia for the pilot's seat. Scott Bowman, defensive left end, has been ill and is a doubtful starter in the Chaffey clash. Mike Schumacher, a 200 pounder, is likely to get the call. Tim Turner, the Comets' middle linebacker, led all scorers on the defensive point chart against Citrus with 31.
That's "Hambone" Williams giving Lantz a boost up. Toby Kimball and John Trapp look on.
McMahon divided the squad into two teams for the game. Heading the "green" team were Elvin Hayes, All-American from the University of Houston, at center, and forwards Toby Kimball from Connecticut and Don Kojis from Marquette University . Guards on the "green" team were rookie Rick Adelman from Loyola, Stu Lantz of Nebraska and Pat

travel to Mt. SAC When you're only number two, you try harder. Trying harder is about the only course left to Palomar's decimated and cellarbound cross country team today as they come up against some of California's toughest junior college competition at Mt. San Antonio College in Walnut. After their great showing l ast year, the Comets could hardly be declined an invitation to this prestige-laden mee~but with the loss of most of the team's experienced and powerful distance runners through graduation, coupled with a high attrition rate among some of the brightest new prospects, it might have been better for the team if they had. Last week, the Comets dropped their first home meet to San Diego City College but are still tied for second place (or last , if you like) in the Pacific Southwest Conference. Next Friday, the Palomar harriers will attend the Aztec Invitational in San Diego .
