Pala Indians aided by school classes By Carolynn Stedd Mr . William L. Bedford and Mr. Gene M. Jackson, Palomar instructors, perticipated in summer courses for Indian students in Pala. Classes in English, modern math, physical science and speech were offered, besides a class in Indian culture taught by the Indians themselves. Field trips to Santa Ynez and Sherman High School were also included in the program . Commenting on the summer classes, Bedford stated, "Both the students and

the teachers felt sufficiently free t hat they did not have to limit courses to ordinary course material. We discussed the things that they wanted to know." Most of the Indians were taking these courses through the Educational Opportunities Program (EOP). State funded, the EOP provides an opportunity for minority students to complete their education despite academic and financial roadblocl<Q Jackson feels that "colleges have inherited the job of correcting problems ·of the minority student." With the

expansion of the EOP, this responsibility is finally being recognized. Jackson further believes that the junior colleges are in the best position to utilize the EOP program. ''In the past it was assumed that junior college education was equally free for all students." There are extras, however, that must be paid, such as books, fees, and transportation. So that ''for the student who would qualify for EOP, even the junior college is very expensive." Along with the EOP should come

"studies that offer recognition and respect for cultural differences. Minority students see nothing in school that speaks to them specifically." This year at Palomar there are nine courses offered in multi- cultural areas, compared to the two offered last semester. "I think minority students at Palomar feel that they are listened to and respected. The multi-cultural studies not only change attitudes but also develop a sense of worth in the students themselves."

Publishers cost blamed lor rise • • 1n text pr1ces The reason for increased textbook prices this year was given as increased publi sher's expenses, according to Mrs . Virginia Dower, bookstore manager. Figures released in a recent study on where the textbook dollar goes s hows that over $.59 goes for publishers e~­ penses . The breakdown is $.07.8 to the publisher, $. 05.5 to publisher's services, $.06. 3 to other publishers expenses, $.27 to publishers production and editorial expenses, and $. 13 forpub lis hers sales and pr omotional expenses . Further breakdown of the textbook dollar is over $.12 to the author and $. 08 to tax'e s. The bookstore then operates on a breakdown of $.10 out of every dollar for salaries, and $. 07 for operating expenses. This leaves the bookstore a profit of $.03 out of every textbook dollar. Mrs. Dower also explained the stores' used- book policy, stating that both new and used books will be bought back at the end of the semester. "Let's say you buy a new book for $6 at the start of the semester, then you can receive $3 as buy-back value at the end of the semester. If you buy the same book used at $5 and it is in good condition you will still receive $3." "The only exception to this is on books which have been revised," added Mrs. Dower. New items being sold in the bookstore this year include leather goods, such as belts, vests and purses. "And don't forget we have a record sale scheduled for November that will include all top albums.''

New night classes offered will teach driving, meditation

Two new evening classes are being offered this semester. They are defe nsive driving and metaphysics and meditation. Defensive driving is a course in which the chief objective is to teach people how to drive and stay alive by preventing all accidents, t he small ones and the big ones. The course is composed of seven sessions, of great value to all drivers and a must for the over fifty driver. Defensive driving will be taught on Thursday evenings from 7 to 10 p.m. in ES- 19. Mrs. Alice Lamon, who has taught this course in the Los Angeles area for several years , will teach defensive driving. This course is recommended by the National Safety Council and the certificate of completion for this course work entitles the student to better acceptance as a risk in automobile insurance. Metaphysics and meditation will attempt to help young people find themselves and solve their problems through meditation and develop into integrated and contributing members of society. The student is introduced to metaphysical literature and given techniques and postures to aid in personal meditation. Mrs. Elaine Peich, who will be teaching this course Wednesday evenings in C-7 from 7 to 9 p.m. studied at the Institute of Mentalphysics in Los Angeles under Dr. Edwin J. Dingle, who spent time training in Tibet. She is a member of the Self-Realization Fellowship originated by Paramhansa Yogananda and studied Yoga and SelfCulture under Sri Ram Sukul.

News Briefs Intervarsity Christian Fellowship will hold an organizational-business meeting l\1onday at ll a.m. in F-ll. They will discuss what "intervarsity" is, the club's purpose, and what they will be doi ng this year.

With increased interest in the minority needs and the EOP program, the minority enrollment should double or triple, says Jackson. He adds, however, "The minority courses cannot be developed or redesigned without more qualified minority educators. We need more minority groups represented on faculties." The changes pointed out by Jackson will take time. "Educating people to develop their own culture and educating the dominant culture of a society is a fantastically complex problem which won't change in a couple of years."

Comets open at Santa Barbara Two Comet archers receive All-American team honors

Defensive unit gets first big test of season

Two Palomar students have been named to the 1970 National Archery Association's All American Collegiate Archery team. George Plocic, Vista, and Terry Gibson, Escondido, were among twelve competitors selected to National Men's and Women's squads. "It is the highest honor available to a collegiate archer who has demonstrated his excellence in skill and integrity in behavior," said Miss Mildred Aye rs, Palomar coach. Each All American receives an embroidered emblem, a certificate of achievement and the All American medal of honor. Plocic, a sophomore business major at Palomar is an archer of many years' experience. Although he usually makes his own equipment and has used fifteen different kinds of bows, this year for the

One of the "best" squads in the school's 24 year football history will open its 1970 season on the road against Santa Barbara City College tomorrow at 8 p. m. The Comets, who lost to the Vaqueros last season 23-19, sport one of the toughest, hard-hitting defenses in the conference, and the coaching staff sees it as their strong point. Coach Mack Wiebe will go with Rick Barrios as his starting quarterback, while Craig Beulkelman, also a freshman, is expected to see a lot of playing time. With Barrios in the starting backfield will be Tony Letuligasenoa, the Mission Conference's second leading rusher from last year and an honorable mention to the J.C. All-American Team. Kirk McClure, a returning letterm an from last year's squad will start at the halfback slot.

Coach Mike Curran's cross country runners are braced for a busy weekend, scheduled for their first dual meet against Citrus today, and the Moorpark Invitational at Moorpark JC, tomorrow. Palomar's harriers came home with a well deserved second place trophy from the Long Beach Invitational Cross Country Meet, last Saturday. Wilber Wester, a freshman from Fallbrook, running with a cast on his wrist, placed second in the four mile race with a time of 20:48, while Comets John Simon, Ian Cunning, Les McFadden, Jay Larkin, Bob Strutton, and Vaughn Lord took the eleventh, fifteenth, seventeenth, thirtieth, thirty-second, and thirty-seventh places out of a field of llO men. It was the "team gap" that won the over-all second place for the Comets. Just before the start of school, the members of the cross country team spent a weekend at Palomar Mountain. Each runner completed 30 miles in two days, always helping each other to set a steady pace and maintaining good stride. The harriers are going to have their best season ever, as they proved at their first meet, by defeating much larger conference teams. The cross country men are a hard-working dedicated team, not a bunch of individuals . They are learning together, as one victory does not make an entire season, but it is a step in the right direction.
