San Marcos, Calif.
It was a gloomy Saturday morning in San Diego. The kind that the Chamber of Commerce would r ather forge t. Rain threatened. It was a morning for sweaters and overcoats---a morning to hit the books instead of the beach. It was hardly a morning one wou ld pick for a stroll down the boulevards of San Diego, ye t pedestrian traffic was at an all time high. Marching down city s treets i s usually reserved for New Year's Day or Mother Goose Parades. There were no high school bands with high stepping, baton twirling coeds or law e nforcement reserve units c linging desperately to spirited palominos. An old red bus with a rock group wailing away on top served as the grand marshalL There was no queen. It wasn't r eally a real parad e . It was called a march and marche rs stopped at all the red lights. Perhaps that's the difference.

The skies darkened but the c rowd remained, Speakers endorsed the moratorium and urged that the marches and demonstrations continue until the troops are completely withdrawn. "This must be done every month--Dec. 15, Jan 15 and continuing," said Jack Weinberg, a member of the Berkley Free Speech Movement. A rock band played a nd finally the rain came down. Not hard, just drizzling. Most of the crowd remained throughout the afternoon. The spirit of peace had not been dampened.
By now you realize what I'm getting at. Whether o r not you are for the immediate withdrawal of United States troops from Vie tnam, the Saturday morni ng Peace March through the s treets of San Diego to the Balboa Park Peace Rally was an interesting and moving display of political sentiment. Not only was it interesting and moving, it was orderly and, as the name implied, peaceful. The San Diego Union estimated the marching crowd at more than 5,000. It seems that 7,000 was more like it. most of the marchers were college age, many were middle-age or older. One elderly couple, well into their seventies, flashed the peace sign at marchers from a bus bench on 5th s treet. When asked to join the march, the y happily joi ned in. Signs flashed peace messages and sporadic songs and chants kept the crowd in good spirits. "All we · are s aying is give p eace a c hance . " "Peace, now. " "Peace, now. " • s ave live s not pride. " T he rally at the park began e arly in t he afternoon a nd as the foot - weary travle rs parked on the sloping turf, Citizen 's 'VIobilization Committee Chairman Bob Goldman, welcomed the group and e xplained the groundwork.

Funds for Palomar's swimming pool may be difficult to obtain according to information received by Dr. John D. Schettler, assistant superintendent in charge of bus iness. According to Dr. Schettler the State Administration for schools considers the expenditures inflationary. Dr. Sc hettler noted that several other colleges have been running into difficulty obtaining the allotted funds. The problem area is getting the approval for the funds from the State Finance Office. The final word should be in by the first week in January. Dr. Schettler also noted that department heads have begun preparing the 1970-1971 budget. They are presently itemi zing their needs and requests which will be turned into their assistant Dean of instruction. Following a review at this level, they will be handed over to the Finance Office.
Rome, the city of fou ntains, was the fir s t stop on a three week tour enjoyed t his p as t s umm e r by Mrs . Esther Nes b in. librarian . 1V!rs . Ne s bin eft New York by Swi s s Ai r J uly 31 wlth 44 other persons on a tou r which was under the auspic es of Lloyd T. Anderson, Biola (Bible Ins titue of Los Angeles) University radio teacher. " In all we visited eight countries, traveling by plane, boat, horse and even camel when the occasion arose," she said. In Rome the librarian visited St. Peter's Cathedral where Pope John XVIII is buried and the Sistine Chapel in the Vatican famous for its frescoes by Michelangelo. At St. Peter in Chains Church she saw Michelangelo' s sculpture of Moses. "It was very dark inside, but all at once floodlight illuminated the chapel and we were told to get our photos quickly," Mrs. Nesbin stated . The tour continued on taking in the Forum and the Appian Way where anciet stones still remain in place. The froup visited the Dead Sea, Galilee and Tiberius. Near Capernaum we stayed in a Kibbutz which is a collective farm settlement of about 3000 people," Mrs. Nesbin stated . "The next stop was Haifa and then a plane trip to Istanbul, Turkey where we saw an emerald as large as an egg which is valued at 38 million dollars and had belonged to Napoleon's mother, It was displayed with other precious jewels in the Sultan's Treasure House. We had a little free time in Istanbul so we went to the s hopping area, housing 20,000 s mall shops." she said. Another boat trip took the group on the Bosphorus which connects the Sea of Marmara and the Black Sea. The group flew home from Zurich Aug 21.
"We were very fortunate to have had such good weather," Mrs. Nesbin said. "There was no rain and temperatures

Dr. Bronner to speak here Friday night 'Dr. E.H. Bronner, aresearchchemist, philosopher of sorts and head of the Better Health Foundation For the Brotherhood of Man in Escondido will speak Friday evening. One of the country's foremost opponents of flouridation, Dr. Bronner is expected to speak on the draft and the Vietnam situation. A controversial figure where ever he appears, Dr. Bronner has a standing offer that if anything he says is disproven by the "open majority", he will pay $1 ,000. He will pay $10 to anyone who improves what he says and $5,000 a year to anyone who teaches his philosophy. A memo received yesterday from Dr. Bronner explained Friday night's lecture. "Help Win Peace by Christmas Time!" it said. "Vietnam--All war is a deadly crime to America's freedom principles since 1799." It continued, "Unhappy? Insecure? Lonely, ill at ease? Come and find ful} truth, unity, progress: Peace! The hardy sailor loves the stormy breeze. No strength have those who seeatease." "Free Speech is man's only real weapon. Not fire . . . distort, deny, disrupt, delay---and all expires." Dr. Bronner will speak at 7:30 in P-32.

A parab e or our t1meis the right way right? (Ed. Note:--The following editorial is a reprint from the Los Angeles Times and was written by Warren H. Schmidt, assistant dean of UCLA's graduate school of business administration and a well known behavioral scientist.) There once was a land where men were always right. They knew it, and they were proud of it. It was a land where a man was proud to say, "I am right" and "You are wrong," for these were words of conviction, strength and of courage. No one was ever heard to say, "I may be wrong" or "You may be right," for these were words of weakness, uncertainty and cowardice. When differences arose among the people of this land they sought not to explore but to be right--and to insist that others be right, too . When differences arose between the old and the young, the old would say: "We have worked hard to build this great and prosperous land. We have produced cars and highways that permit us to move quickly from place to place. We have built planes that surpass the speed of sound. "We have produced computers which solve complex problems in milliseconds. We have even touched the moon. We expect those who inherit this good land to appreciate what we have accomplished and to build on the heritage we have given to them." These older people were right, of course, and they knew it and were proud of it. But the younger people of that land would respond: "We see around us a land that has been be f o u I e d and exploited. People starve where food is plentiful. Laws and practices prevent some from having an equal chance to develop and to influence. "Noble and moral words are matched by selfish and sordid deeds. Leaders urge us to fight wars to preserve peace-and the fighting does not end. The whole scene is phony and polluted and inhuman and out of control. We want no part of this money-mad Establishment." These younger people were right, of course, and they knew it and were proud of it. And the gap between the generations grew wider. When differences arose between men of different races, those from the majority race would say: "We are working steadily to build a land of justice and equality for all our citizens. We have made considerable progress-but social progress does not come swiftly. "Those whom we seek to help and lift can only hurt their own cause when they push and intrude and pressure us. Let them show some patience--and let them use more fully the opportunities we have already supplied. Then we will feel like doing even more for them." These people of the majority were

right, of course, and they knew it and they were proud of it. But those from the minority group would reply: ''We have been pushed around too long and we are angry. We have been confined to a ghetto. Our children's education has been stunted in second - rate schools. We have seen jobs go to the less qualified while our people are rejected or shunted into menial tasks. "We see a thousand subtle signs that brand us and our children as second-class citizens in this land. We will tolerate lofty promises and meager deeds no longer." These people from the minority were right, of course, and they knew it and were proud of it. And the gap between the races grew wider. And so it went in this land. Group after group defined the right, and took their stand, and upheld their position against those who opposed them, It happened between those who taught in the school and those who provided the funds . It happened between those who gave priority to a strong defense and those who provided the funds. It happened between those who pleaded for peace at almost any price and those who argued for national honor at almost any cost. Everyone was right, of course , and they knew it and were proud of it. And the gaps between groups grew wider. Until the day came when the rigidity of rightness caused all activity to come to a halt. Each group stood in its solitary rightness, glaring with proud eyes at those too blind to see their truth, determined to maintain their position at all costs. (For this is the responsibility of being right.) But the quality of life in the land declined and grew more grim. The people became more angry and violence increased. People had more things, but their sense of well-being and personal fulfillment diminished. Some measured the cost in tasks undone and energy wasted, others in loneliness and 'fear. Most felt powerless and without hope. But through the tense days of confusion and gaps of all kinds, some maintained their vision of a time when men would again value their differences as a source of richness, as a stimulant to learning, as a base for creativity. Then, one day a strange new sound was heard in the land. Someone said, "I may be wrong... You may be right. " The people were shocked that anyone could be so weak and so confused, but the voice persisted. And when thepeople looked, they saw that it came from one who was known for his strength and wisdom, And some people began to listen in a different way. It now seemed safe to listen to opposing --and even "wrong" views . As they listened, they discovered common beliefs they had not known before. They even began to see signs of humanity and noble purpose in those whom they once knew only as adversaries . Here and there men expressed their common desires in deeds--and bright examples of joint action were seen in the land. With each new effort, men's faith in one another grew . . . and their faith in the future . . . and in their ability to shape their own destiny. They stated these beliefs in a Declaration of Interdependence which read, in part: "All men are created equal--but each develops in a unique way. All men are endowed with certain inalienable rights-but each must assume certain inevitable responsibilites. "For the happiness and fulfillment of all depends on the commitment of each to accept and support equality and uniqueness, rights and responsibilities." In this land the quest for truth was never considered closed. The desire to persuade others was matched by the desire to learn from others. The proclamation of easy solutions (which others should carry out) no longer seemed as heroic as the quiet personal commitment to work steadily on some complex social ill. Most important of all, men had learned how two rights could make a very costly wrong ... that it takes more wisdom and courage to extend a hand than to point a finger or clench a fist. The land became alive with quest, and debate, and learning. The land grew prosperous and the quality of life advanced. But, more important, the land had found its soul again and experienced a rebirth of freedom and justice and trust which mark a truly great and. human society.
By Ken Scandlyn Once again "Led Zeppelin" has come forth with a super heavy album. Entitled "Led Zeppelin II", this, the most acid of the acid rock groups has produced an album much like their previous effort. Lead guitarist Jimmy Page proves to be one of the great guitar players in rock and roll. Along with song writing, Page and his guitar gymnastics, seems to be the whole group--without him 'Zeppelin' would not be the group they are. Roliert Plant, the groups vocalist, is quite effective with his screeching wail. Although effective with these types of songs , it is doubtful that he would be decent in any other group. As for the other members of the quartet John Paul Jones and John Bonham round out the sound with a very heavy bass line along with a driving drum beat. For best results, beg, borrow or steal some headphones and let your head do the rest while listening to this LP. Songs to pay close attention to are "Whole Lotta Love," "Ramble On," "Heartbreaker," and "The Lemon Song".

Elvin "Pigboy Crabshaw" Bishop and his group have finally come out with their first album. Bishop, formally with the Butterfield Blues Band, broke away to bring together his own unique blues sound.
SATURDAY, Nov. 22: The Sun enters Sagittarius today, but the Moon squares Mars, and forms opposition to Venus. Not a very good day for romantic exploits. It's a good day for doing what you've put off for so long, (painting the roof, mowing the lawn, etc.) . SUNDAY, Nov. 23: Full Moon forms opposition to Neptune, and enters Gemini. If you are going to be driving today, be sure you know where you're going ahead of time, and watch out for those Sunday drivers. MONDAY, Nov. 24: The moon forms opposition to Mercury, but trines Uranus today. If you go to school today, you might meet someone who's pretty neat.

Has November been a bad month for you? All the birds are heading south, the leaves are coming off the trees, and it gets dark so early. Sometimes it seems as if everything bad happens during this time. The air has a gloomy tinge and the transition into winter is approaching. In late October the Sun enters the sign of Scorpio and finally on Nov. 22 enters the sign of Sagittarius. It is during this period of time that the air gets that certain chill to it that tells us winter can't be far away. The "I Ching" book on ancient Chinese philosophy aptly describes the months of October and November as hexagram #23 Po/Splitting Apart and says in "The Judgement~ the right behavior in such adverse times is to be deducted from the images and their attributes. "This suggests that one should submit to the bad time and remain quiet. For it is a question not of man's doing but of time conditions which, according to the laws of heaven, show an alterationofincrease and decrease, fullness and emptiness."
Not very well known, Bishop should be rated among the top ten blues guitarists today. Probably near the top. His style is homey, jerky, slury, unpredictable and very together. To round out his group, Crabshaw has Steve Miller (not the Steve Miller you are probably thinking of) on organ, John Chambers on drums, Art Stavro on bass and a harp player who goes by the name of Applejack. Bishop doesn't have the greatest voice, but it's kind of funky. His style is perfect on such songs as "Sweet Potato" and "The Things That I Used to Do. " Being their first album, there are some downfalls, but with Bishop's riffs, it is well worth getting. Especially if you can dig the blues.

''I had a very nice roommate, and coincidentally, she and I have birthdays on the same day and year and since the occasion· fell during the trip the group had a little celebration and were given silver spoons." Mrs. Nesbin will show slides of her trip at The Philosophical Library on Rose Street in Escondido, Nov. 21 at 8 p.m. The public is invited. "At Nero's castle we were shown a huge bowl in the center of the banquet room, called the vomitory. It seems that it was the custom for the gluttonous guests to vomit into the receptacle, so that they could partake further of the food before them" Mrs. Nesbinexplained Before leaving Rome, the group visited the Coliseum and the many beautiful fountains in the city. In Athens, Greece, Mrs. Nesbin saw the much publicized "Sound and Light" show. "We were told the history of Greece while the Acropolis was lighted in brilliant hues. Another evening we enjoyed a colorful folk dance;'' she said. The next stop was Corinth and the ruins of the temple where St. Paul spoke to the Corinthians. In Cairo the group was treated to a boat ride on the Nile river and at Gizen it was time for the camel ride to the pyramids. "A camel rises first from his hind quarters, so that the rider got the sensation of being thrown forward,'' Mrs. Nesbin laughed. "It was quite an experience." The tour continued on to Luxor, Karnak, Lebanon and Jordan. The group traveled four hours by car through the Syrian Dessert and one hour on horseback to Petra, going through a mountain cleft 300 feet high and 6 feet wide.
Mrs. Esther Nesbin, Palomar College librarian, visited the Middle East for
three weeks last July. She will show slides of her trip in Escondido Nov. 21.
"People are not permitted to travel directly between Arabian and Isra~li countries, so we visited Jerusalem corning in from Cyprus." Mrs. Nesbin said, "We saw The Garden of Gethsemane, the Garden Tomb and the site of the crucifixion. We traveled along the Via Doloroso, which was the path Jesus took to the crucifixion. ''
