Drama comedy • continues ron this weekend Jean Anouilh's "Waltz of the Toreadors" will continue its weekend run tonight and tomorrow night in the Drama Lab . The play will -conclude its run Dec. 18, 19, and 20. Curtain time is 8 p.m. and admission is $.50 for students with ASB cards and $1. 50 for non-ASB card hold ers. Reservations may be made by calling the college drama department. The play which was awarded the title of "Best Play by a Foreign Author" during its season on Broadway, tells a story on two levels of existence. One is the blustery, comic farce about a general who fancies himself quite the toreador with the ladies; the other, the bitterness and disgust that he feels both towards himself and the hollowness of all his triumphs. Riotous comic cadenzas, and amazing husband- and-wife tug of wars mingle with elusive moments of s piritual candor. The play, directed by Buddy Ashbrook, with techni ca l direction by Norm Gaskins, includes in its cast Joe Neglia and Shelley Smith as the general and his wife; Sandy Hume as Mlle . de Ste Euverte; David Fennessy as Gaston; Carolyn Roy and Jo Ann Watkins as Sidonia and Estelle, the general's daughters; Tony Plumer as Dr. Bonfant; and Sharon Menching, Gene Floyd, Mary Vollmer, and Tina Sarno in supporting roles. Marsha Hunt and Scott Hicks are assistant director and stage manager.

It will be for and about the senior s tud ents and will include autobiographies of the girls and their plans for the future. "Stethoscope" staff members are at present gathering material for the book.

While Palomar College's unknowi ng "silent majority" e njoyed a quiet lunch hour yes terday, Frank Mott·s "noisy minority~ thoughtfully and systematically expelled two of its members and censu r ed the vice pres id e nt of the ASB. In a speci a l meeting he ld in R-3, J\lott and 11 members of the co-.~nc il charged and removed TELESCOPE ed itor Chris Read and social cha irm an Richard McGuckin from the body, and ce nsured Vice President Nick As hcraft. The actio n of the council ca m e after members from within the body demanded a n inves tigation of s ix me mbers. The council members were charged with violations ranging from excessive absence from council meetings to violation of the required ASB card ruling. The members of the council who were investigated before the counc il and the charges made against them are: Sam Edwa rds, represenative-at-large, excessive absence; Greg Salo, Associated Me ns' President, excessive abse nce: Jack Buchans, represenative-at- large, failure to purchase a full ASB card, violation of an executive order from the council concerning the card, and excessive absence.

Eac h of the "accused" council mem bers appeared befor e the council, were notified of the c harges brought against them, and were given a chance to defe nd them selves. The council unanimously dismissed all charges against Salo, on the defense that he was ill and off campus for two of the three meetings he was c harged with missing. After taking two votes of the council, a letter of admonition was sent to Edwards, as a warning of future

ON THE ROAD AGAIN!

Cagers face Phoenix Palomar College basketball is back on the road. Coach Andy Gilmour and his Comets left yesterday to play Phoenix College in two non-league contests. This marks the seventh and eighth out of fifteen games played away from hom e . Game time is 8 p.m. for the contest. Last Thursday was a memorable night for the Comets and es peciall y Dave Faulkner . It was on that night that Palomar won its first away basketball game since Dec. 28, 1 966 ~ The Comets broke their infamous record against one of the best, Imperial Valley College, in an opening game of IVC's Natio nal Junior College Tournament, 66-65. Palomar did it with class too, on a 40 foot jump shot by Faulkne r at the final buzzer that stunned 1,000 IVC fans. Faulkner took a pass rebound by Marty Bojorquez with just three seconds left to play. IVC was a head 65 - 64. Around midcourt Faulkner shot the ball and turned away from the bas ket for fear the ball would miss . The only sound that could be heard was the swish of the ball through the net and the mobbing of Faulkner. Although Palomar left the fans in stony silence afte r the game, the play by play action of the c lose ly fought battle made it one of the best matched of the tournament. Neithe r team was able to get more t han a three point s pread at any time. Palomar was later rapped by Meramac 71-45, and Arizo na Weste rn , 75 - 37, but the upset over IVC proves that on a give n night the Comets may be able to beat any other Missio n Confer e nce squad. "We played the best we have ever played in the first half of that game, Gilmour sa id. "If we could play like that all the time against everyone , we might be able to s tay with some pe ople. Those othe r teams were just loaded with talent and they took advantage of our every mistake." Gilmour plans to start Bojorquez, who played exceptionally in the tournament, at guard along with Ken Car r . Working the forward spots will be Earl May and Mark Emb r ey. The center slot will be he ld down by Charlie Ayars.

Board of trustees reaffirms views on faculty, staff hiring In an effort to reaffirm their policy on ethnic hiring, the Palomar College Board of Trustees, last Tuesday night, went on record formally as approving the policy with the adop tion of a r esolution . The new ·resolution reads as follows: "The faculty, administration and Board of Governors of Palomar College will, in recruitment of teac hers , administrators and c lassified s taff, continue to a c tive ly solicit applications from all qualified persons, including those of nonCaucasian ethnic background and ofnonWestern cultural heritage , and wi ll continue to develop and maintain both a qualified faculty and a curri culum gendiversity of the American expe rience, and that such s pecific courses be deve loped as would reflect these values in the curriculum of the college ." Although this has been the policy of the college for s ome time, the board felt that the policy s hould be clarified . Accordi ng to Dr. Frederick R. Huber, Jresident of the college, no charges have been made against the college concerning discrimination in its hiring practices. In other action, the trustees awarded a contract for $23,795 to the Wilstar Construction Co. of San Diego for cons truction of a porch addi tion to the college's art c omplex. The college r e ceived seven bids. The original estimate for the project was $18,000, but Dr. Hube r explained to the board that the steel price inc r eases caused the price to go up. Trustees also unanimously decided against joining the California School Board's Association. Dr. Huber said the board prefers its membership in the

California Junio r Colleges Association composed of trustees, admi ni strators and teachers , rather than just trustees, as is the other association. Frank Mott, Palomar ASB president informed the board that the ASB fee l s that it can no longer fund for activities which r eceive c lassroom credit. Mott r elayed the recommendation, which was approved the previous day a t the ASB's regular weekly meeting.

Comet-MiraCosta football rivalry ends after 22 years North County ' s second longest grid rivalry has come to an end-:- At least for a while. A five-point lette r, from Dr. Frederick Huber, Palomar president to MiraCosta president Dr. John McDonald, outlined the reasons why the Comets are ending the ir football rivalry with the Spartans . The reasons, in part, are: l. "Palomar, for the past three years, has had only four home games and the same thing will be true in 1970 and 1971 under the pre sent schedule. 2. "Saddleback College may be assigned to the 1ission Conference next year, which will pose further scheduling problem s. 3. "It is necessary to reassess our financial structure in some way and come up with addi ti onal revenue. 4. "Mira Costa and Palom ar play the opening game of the season und er the present schedules . We do not feel this situation is good. 5. "Finally, the move is now on to eliminate all play-off and bowl games. If this comes into being, perhaps a 10 game schedule for all colleges would be possible and any traditional games could be scheduled at the end of the season.' ' President Huber c losed the letter, stating, "We sincerely hope that compe tition in all other sports can continue as the problems of sc heduling, financing and other game procedures are not so acute." A flare - up between Palomar's head grid coach Mack Wiebe and the Spartans Athle tic Director and Football mentor Bill Corchran earlier in the season has been denied as the reason the two school have end ed the face - off. The flare - up cente r ed around the fact that many Palomar football playe rs were participating in a summer se mester recreation class prior to the official '•first practice " date. Although most junior c olleges football teams in the state get in extra conditioning by using thi s type of summ er program, MiraCosta, evidently does not. At the Spartan s' request, the Mission Conference investigated the matter and Palomar was eventually cleared of any wrongdoing. Because Palomar used this loophole in the state athletic code the Apartans felt that they were being put at an unfai r advantage when game time rolled around. Practice sessions offici a lly opened

Membe r s of Palomar's honor society, Alpha Gamma Sigma, have planned a trip to the world famous Huntington Library tomorrow. The Huntington Librar y, located in San Marino, attracted over a halfmillion visitors and 1200 schola rs last year. Best known for its priceless col lec tion of r are m anuscripts and books, the Library also houses one of the state's finest galleries of 18th and 19th Centur y British art.

Dr. McDonald gave his impres s ions of the move. " .... . I was originally surprised to hear about it several weeks ago when he (Dr. Huber) and I talked I thought perhaps after this contract ran out, we would re- evaluate the s ituation. "ApparElntly they have their reasons for makiqg this decision. We're going to insist that they pay us $300, just a s a matter of principle ,'' said Dr. McDonald. Coach Corchran would like to see the se ries c ontinued . "On our part, we're ready to play. Palomar apparently feels that it's in their best interest that it s hould end. "I enjoyed the competition with six different coaches for the past 14 years. I hate to see it end. The kids have enjoyed it. There's never been any bad blood between the kids. The two colleges have met 22 times, dating back to 1947. Mi r aCosta has won 14 games, Palomar eight. The Come ts won once on a fo r feit and have take n the last two games, 15- 8 and 6-3.

on September l. This year's CometSpartan encounter took place on September 18, giving the MiraCostans 17 days of actual conditioning and prac tice time. What it boils down to is this: Palomar takes advantage of a summer recreation program, where athletes have a chance to get into condition before practice begins . MiraCosta, on the other hand, feels that the summer recreation type of program violates the s t ate regulations on pre- season practicing, and therefore does not engage in it. It is strictly a matter of philosophies. The investigation of Palomar by the Mission Conference at the insistence of MiraCosta did nothing to ease the tension between the two school's athletic departments. Some say there is no love lost between Wiebe and Corchran, blaming the s plit on this grudge. The letter from college pre side nt to college pres id ent indicates that this is a fa lse assumption. Anyone who handles money on this campus, will tell you that funds are becoming scarce. Football revenues are not what they should be because of t he limited home game schedule. Palomar has a two year c ontract left with MiraCosta, fo r games already scheduled in 1970 and 1971. These games will not be played. Palomar, under a contract agree me nt, must pay MiraCosta a $300 fo r fe iture fee.
