25 wounded Vietnam veterans from Camp Pendleton attended last Saturday's
football game . The visit was sponsored by the ASB council and cheerleaders.
Speaker policy outlined at Area 1 conference In a move against speaker policy regulations on junior college campuses, student leade rs passed a resolution at the Area 1 conference last Saturday. The r esolution states: "Be it resolved that any person, regardless of political affiliations or regardless of ideology be allowed to present his views on the campus if sponsored by a campus organization." The resolution will now be sent to the California Junior College Student Government Association convention in December. Area l is comprised of Palomar, MiraCosta, Grossmont, Southwestern, San Diego City, San Diego Evening, Mesa and Imperial Valley colleges. The conference was he ld at San Diego City College. Eleven Palomar student leaders attended the conference and were successful in introducing and passing a resolution directed toward four-year colleges and universities in the state. The move is in reaction to the intention of San Diego State College in regards to the curtailment of junior college transfer students. Palomar's ASB council passed a resolution in opposition to the move by SDS in their meeting October 21. The Area I conference also passed a resolution to re-introduce Assembly Bill 1557 to the California State legislature. AB 1557 is a measure which would amend section 8453 of the Education Code. The measure would exclud e junior colleges from the regulation stating, "No publication of a sectarian, partisan or denominational character shall be distributed or used for sectarian, partisan or denominational purposes in any school, except that nothing herein shall
Forensics tea m wins 10 awards Led by double winners . Mrs. Jane Jackson, Ruth Ann Eicher, Hank Pinto, Roger Scalice, and Cathy Widrig, the Palomar College Forensics Team won 10 awards at the recent Pacific Southwest tourney held at El Camino College. Mrs. Jackson, competing for the first time received a " superior" rating in impromptu speaking. In the same event Roger Scalice won an "excellent" award. Scalice, along with HankPinto, became a two-time winner as they both garnered "s.u periors "in extemporaneous speaking. Jackson, Widrig, Eicher, and Gil Hain, received "excellent" awards. Climaxing the awards with "excellent" ratings were the debate teams of Ruth Ann Eicher-Cathy Widrig and Dana !sham- Hank Pinto. Four year schools defeated by Palomar were Utah (twice h Cal State at Fullerton (twice) and Cal State at Long Beach. Ray Dahlin, coach, is now preparing for tne hosting of the Fourteenth PalO:qJar College High School Invitational to be held Nov. 15-16.
restrict the development and use of school library collections." AB 1557 was introduced into the state legislature last year and was passed by the state assembly but died in the Senate Education Committee. All r esolutions passed at the Area 1 conference will be presented for approval at the statewide student government convention.
!News Briefs! D. Jess Ashcraft, Young Republican president, announced there will be an organizational meeting today at 11 a.m. in Room R-3. Plans are being made for social gatherings as will al political meetings. Special guests at future meetings will be Assemblyman John Stull, and Erskine Sandys of the state scholarship boara.
By Jim Strain Public discussion on the possibility of establishing a Student Court at Palomar opened last Tuesday at a meeting of the committee to establish the Student Court. Judicial Committee chairman Bill White presided over the sparsely attended meeting whose purpose was to obtain ideas and suggestions from the student body to aid the committee in the formation of the court as well as to explain the overall plan. White explained that the court was still in the planning stage and no concrete proposals have yet been adopted or will be until further data has been accumu-
AWS conference
slated for today "Influence in the Home" is the topic that has been given to Palomar representatives at the Associated Women Studnets Fall Conference, to be held today at Mira Costa College from 2:30 p.m. to 6 p.m . The theme of this fall's conference is "The Changing Woman." Each represe ntative college is given a buzz session topic for the day. Mrs. Marjorie Warmer, dean of women at San Diego State College will be the guest speaker at this year's conference. Approximately 12 girls from Palomar's AWS will attend the conference. Diane Schekel and Mary ChimaTusti are chairmen of Palomar's buzz session.
lated and investigated. Among the first projects of the White Committee will be a straw poll of the entire student body to ascertain the sentiment of the students themselves. White told the Telescope that if the sentiment of the students is overwhelmingly against the court that it will be dropped from further consideraIf a significant number indicate tion. support, on the other hand, then the actual drafting of the bill will get under way. Among the topics discussed at the meeting were, ''Why or why not a student court?'', ''Jurisdiction," "Sentencing," and "Punishments." Last weekend White attended the Area One conference to find out how similar tribunals have fared at other schools. Of the JCs in the San Diego area, however, only Grossmont actually has a student court and White said he was not entirely satisfied with the format of their court . "We aren't just going to take Grossmont's court and write in Palomar's name. That's why we are trying to get several ideas on it," explained White. He said that he now plans to contact colleges and JCs throughout the state to get a cross- section of how different student judicial systems are run. The Telescope, conducting an independe nt investigation, contacted the student newspaper at Grossmont College to get an idea of how the system was working the r e. No one at the newspaper office, it turned out, was even aware of the existence of the court and

Lee Ann Galindo has been chosen "Best Groomed Woman of the Month" by the Associated Women Students. the award was announced at an AWS fashion show and was presented by Linda Welch, secretary of the AWS. The award is based on good posture and figure, clean, well-kept hair, suitable make-up and appropriatene ss of campus clothes .
The Editor of the Grossmont G said that the court there could not have been too active since if anything had happened s he was sure she would have known.about it. In the north, Shasta College in Redding, California, is also having its troubles with a student judiciary. The student newspaper there, the Lance, carried a two- part story this month on its new student court system. The article was triggered by a contempt of court charge brought against a student there who has apparently set out to test the legality of a probationary sentence hand ed down by that body. The system there does not bear strict comparison with Palomar due to the presence of a campus police force and the fact that Shasta has a large percentage of resident students who live in dormitories there. Still it might prove useful on a limited scale. Student prosecuting attorney Norman Haines was quoted as saying that the system, which is new to Shasta, is difficult to enforce because of a number of loopholes in the by-laws. The court there is primarily set up to deal with disciplinary and traffic matters and according to Haines is, "still in the organizing process," although functioning right now. Shasta' s court also has the muchdiscussed power of expulsion but so far has not used it. The Lance article said that the Shasta program was started as a pilot project and, if it proves successful, will be presented to the other 80 colleges in the California Junior College Student Government Association.
'Shrike' goes into second performance
Publicity Code ready for vote After much thought, the newly revised publicity code will be brought before the Student Council Monday, according to ASB President Kim Clark. Disagreements over the policing and regulation of on-campus publicity have led to a revision of the Publicity Code of the Associated Student Body Constitution. The code is being expanded and will clarify campus publicity. Revision of Article I of the Publicity Code will allow for an executive Pub- : · licity Committee made up of a director of publicity, one public commissioner from the ASB, one publicity chairman from the Inter-Club Council, and one publicity representative from each club on campus. The publicity committee will be responsible for clearing all campus publicity. "The committee is a student com mittee to police on-campus publicity. Under the revised edition of the code the publicity committee will have the right to decide whether publicity put up on campus is in accordance with the rules and .regulations set up in the code. If an individual or club wants to further appeal its stand, they must go to the judicial committee, which then decides the matter. The code used now allows for a committee composed of a director of publicity appointed by the ASB president with the approval of the Council.

Kent Gordon, jjlH Lehrke and Jeannette Des Ermia are shown during a dress rehersal of "The Shrike".
Tonight will be the second performance of "The Shrike". Tickets will cost 50 cents for students with an ASB card.
Joseph Kramm's play "The Shrike," opened last night in the drama lab. Weeks of hard work has paid off for both the acting and technical staffs of the production. Working almost constantly since the beginning of school in September, the combined talents of Buddy Ashbrook and Norman Gaskins have yielded the first production of the 1968 theater year. Action of "The Shrike" happens in the psychopathic ward of a "big city ,hospital", according to technical director Gaskins. Bill Lehrke stars as theunsucessfulpl ay director, Jim Downs, who is estranged from his overly possessive wife, played by Jeanette des Ermia. Other members of the large cast are : Pat Gehris, Jim Southers , Dave Jones, Mike Stodghill, David Lewis, Evonne Dahl , Tom Bates, Sylvia Olcott, Bob Hutchings, Tad Geer, Jim Downing, Rod Wood, Greg Krueger, Kent Gordon, Chloe Damus, William Briggs, Tafi Ashbrook, Glenda Bradley, Don O'Rouke, and Gene Floyd . Tickets are on sale daily and can be also obtained by reservation for the remainder of the run of the play. Performances are tonight and tomorrow night, and will continue through next weekend with performances Wednesday through Saturday nights. Curtain is at 8 p.m. nightly. Price of admission is 50¢ with ASB card and $1.50 for those without. The theater arts department is under the direction of Ray Dahlin, speech instructor.

Most football teams have their bread and butter man. Someone who can penetrate a rugged goal-line defense or turn a short screen pass into a long scoring play. At Palomar that man is Merle Gathers, a 5 ft. 9 in. 180 pounder. In last week's 22-14 victory over Chaffey, Gathers ran for all three Comet touchdowns, gained 125 yards rushing on 19 carries and caught two passes. Tomorrow night Gathers will be back in action as the Palomar eleven travels north to face the Cypress College Chargers . The locals are bidding for their second Southeastern Conference win. Game time is scheduled for 8 p.m. at Handel Stadium on the campus of Western High School. Handel Stadium may be reached by traveling north on Interstate 5 to Beach Blvd. Turn south on Beach and travel approximately two and one half miles to the stadium. The Comets have won three of five starts on the season, their two losses coming by a total of only four points. Cypress, 1-4, has a deceivingrecord. The Chargers have faced a back-breaking schedule which includes a game with National J.C. Football Champs Fullerton Junior College. They dropped their other pre-season game to the powerful Golden West Rustlers, and lost their conference opener to Riverside before bouncing back to defeat Grossmont, 10-7. Grossmont dropped Palomar, 17-14. Last week the Chargers were upset by Southwestern in a dense fog, 7-0. Talent-wise, Cypress is one of the best teams in the conference. Piloted by quarterback Frank Lopez, the Chargers are both big and quick. Lopez, a sophomore, was an honorable mention AllEastern Conference star last year and is considered an excellent passer. Aiding Lopez in the backfield will be fullback Rockie Donathan and and tailback Rookie Oxanbourne . Both men are tough runners and should provide some thrills. Mark Simunavich, the Comets' right guard, will be a doubtful starter in tomorrow night's contest. He is the third Palomar player to suffer a shoulder separation. Brian Donahue will probably fill in for Simunavich. Flanker Jack Ashby and punter Mark Eldridge have been playing despite slight shoulder injuries. Ashby, one of the leading junior college receivers in the state, caught five passes for 85 yards against the Panthers last week. Fullback Ramese Faleafine, subbing for the injured John Houchin, also turned in an impressive game as he ran for 76 yards on 15 carries.

Radovich, himself an all-time Fullerton great, has assembled a squad that poseses all the ingredients to bid for this year's coveted tournament title. The Hornets have size, speed and experience plus a winning tradition that stretches over many junior college basketball seasons. In looking at the Fullerton roster, one

realizes why this may be the year for the Orange County squad. To start, Radovich again welcomes back the Anaheim strong boy, 6 ft. 6 in., 230-pound Van Bye, who looks more like a member of the Los Angeles Rams "Fearsome Foursome" than a basketball player. To back up Bye at the post is 6-9 former All-SCIF candidate Jerry Brucks, also from Anaheim High. At forward is returning letterman 6-5 Mark Sanders from Orange and newcomer Scott Wright, 6-7 high scorer from Fullerton High. Add last season's surprise freshman, 6-5, 220 pound Ted Harper and one realizes why the Hornets feel the forward position is well-manned. While Radovich is somewhat cautious about the guard situation, assistant coach Archie Archuleta feels the Fullerton five will have its best backcourt since the days of Walt Simon. Simon holds three tourney records and placed on the All-Tournament team both in 1964 and 1965. Leading the guard group this year are quick Dilley Johnson, 5-7, from New York . City and 6-2 Craig Childress from last · s·eason's fine Fullerton High School squad. Adding experience -are high scoring sophomores Chris Smith, 6-1, and Ben Novak, 6-2, from Buena Park. Late season arrival Steve Wilson, a 6-5 forward from Whittier and 6-3 returning letterman Tony Manzo will give Fullerton the necessary depth to make a run at pre-tournament favorites Allan Hancock, Pasadena City College and San Diego City College. Fullerton will open its lOth Annual Palomar Tournament play against another darkhorse candidate, the Ventura College Pirates, at 1 p.m. on Wednesday, Dec. 4, 1968. The battle between Bye and 1967 AllTournament selection, 6-8 All-American Dave McLucas of Ventura, should be worth the price of admission alone.
