Part-time jobs given credit • 1n work class
Very interested and concerned students presented the following request to the administrative council at their first meeting recently. "On behalf of the Palomar student body it is requested that a room or quiet space be provided on campus wherein counseling may be done in the areas of personal problems, drug abuse, the draft, and birth control.
By Frank Hoffa Have you ever wished you could receive academic credit for your parttime job? Well, you can if you belong to Palomar's work experience class. Depending on the type of work you do, you may receive from two to four units per semester. The goal of the class, according to Mr. Robert Kuretich, director of work experience, is "to provide for the instruction of students in the skills, attitudes, and understandings necessary to success in employment.'' Pointing out that the work experience program has grown from 60 students in 1966 to over 200 this year, Kuretich explained how the goals of the class are met. He said, "The program consists of a coordinating class which meets one hour a week. Some of the topi cs covered in class are job information, job requirements, job attitudes, job interviews, and applying for a job." "In addition," Mr. Kuretich added, "guest speake rs are invited from suc h places as Pacific Telephone, the California Department of Human Resources Development, the FBI, and local industry . They appraise the students of current information employment or job opportunities." Any student may take the work experience class, and depending upon the type of e mployment he has, he may be placed in one of four programs . They are: l. General work experience, for students working outside of their major fields. They may earn up to six units during their college program . 2. Vocational work experience, for students working within their major fields . They may receive up to 16 units. 3. Office occupations, for students doing c lerical or secretarial work. They may receive up to 16 units if they are working within their major fields, or up to six units if this work is outside of their major fields. 4. Distributive occupations, for business majors working in the field of selling. They may earn up to 16 units. Kuretlch replaces Mrs. Eva Baldwin, while Mr. Ed Stroot, the new half time coordinator in the general and distributive fields, replaces Dr. George B. Toll, who retired last June . The coordinators will assist unemployed students in obtaining jobs in cooperation with Miss Louise Diener, supervisor of the Palomar College Placeme nt Office, and Mr. Walter Brown, director of vocational education.

The request went on to explain: ''It is intended that this counseling be done by other students who volunteer and are qualified to offer such help. This is on the premise that students would feel much freer in discussing their personal problems if they could talk with counselors of their own peer group . "They would relate more closely if the person they go to for help is one of the same age group with similar problems and experiences.

''This is not to criticize the present counseling department or suggest that it be replaced solely by student counselors. Our counseling program is now adequate for what it can do in solving problems with class schedules and basic education requirements. But the counseling department has not been prepared to deal with such problems as drug abuse, etc. "The supplement to the present counseling program, with the capability of reaching students and their problems in such a way the school has not been able to do. ''The room would be used in the following manner: A comfortable atmosphere would be maintained. Student artwork would be displayed inside. Literature on tables could be borrowed, read in the room, or taken without cost. Much of this literature has already been donated . "A small library is also available with books, pamphlets , and periodicals on current world affairs, student unrest, war, nonviolence, disarmament, etc. Further donations would be accepted.
Newsreel-like ~Potem kin' offers spirit of 1905 Russian naval mutiny "Potemkin," the latest film to be shown to the fall film class was one of Russia's leading films during the 1920's. Commenting on the film, prior to its showing Wednesday night, Mr. Richard Peacock, film class instructor said, " 'Potemkin' is one of the most important films in the history of film making. As history students, you should be aware of this." The purpose of "Potemkin" was to recapture the spirit of the Russian revolution by depicting one of its incidents . The incident portrayed by the film was a mutiny aboard the Russian battleship "Potemkin." The crew rose up against tyrannical officers who were forcing maggot- ridden meat upon them. Terming the film "well edited , " Peacock commented on its newsreel-like format, saying, "It doesn't focus on
"A bulletin board would be useful and a phone, though not necessary, could be used for counseling students who are off campus when they need help, and to take messages, make contacts and referrals . ''Presently a number of qualified students with knowledge in such areas as drug abuse and draft counseling have volunteered to make themselves available if a room is secured. ''It should be emphasized that this room would not be used to serve the special interests of any one campus club or organization, but would be serving the entire student body. Therefore, it is in the interest of all of the college's students that this request should be granted." This request was considered and after hashing it out, a room was relinquished for use. Room R-5 will now be available on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays from ll a.m . to 3 p.m. ; on Tuesdays from 9 a.m. to 1 p .m.; and on Thursdays from ll a.m . to 1 p.m . Four student counselors are already available for counseling purposes. They are Allison Roe and Georgia Yee, group guidance and personal problems; Carl Downing, drug abuse; and Rick Jahnkow, draft counseling. Jahnkow stated, "Anyone who is qualified or has an interest in counseling should come to the room when it is open and talk to one of us . " As to the purpose behind the group's action Jahnkow furt her said, "We feel that with problems other than an academic nature, students would feel much freer if they could discuss problems with student counselors who are experienring similar problems. "Also, we will be offering service in many areas whic h t he present counseling department is not equipped for, such as draft and drug abuse counseling." The group is working under Mr. Oscar B. Gibbs, a member of the counseling department. Since this is only a trial project, a weekly report to the ASB council must be made which will in turn report to the administrative council if necessary. At the end of the semester a cumulative report will be presented to the admi nistr ative council.
acting as such, and you don' t get any deep psychological insight into any one character." He added that the cameraman for the film had been a newsreel photographer before making "Potemkin," this perhaps being one reason for the newsreel-like quality of the film. The next film, a German classic entitled "M" will be shown Wednesday, October 21, at 7 p.m.
Jahnkow commented, "Once the room gets going we want people to realize that they can come in anytime the room is open, and a class is not going on, and sit and read or just rap with whoever is there." The r oom should be ready sometime next week. Furniture is being moved in and an effort is being made to get screens to partition off the room . The idea for the counseling service was formulated last spring.

Comets take home debut 20-14 Saddleback travels here next week Comet fullback Tony Letuligasanoa scampered 25 yards with 37 seconds remaining to give Palomar a 20-14 nonconference win over visiting Hartnell last Saturday afternoon. Letuligasanoa picked up key blocks from tackle Stan Gida and tailback Gary Rees that sprang him loose for his game-winning score. The win evened the Comet's nonconference record at 1-1 as they opened conference play last night in a home contest with the Riverside Panthers. Saddleback, in their first year in the Mission Conference, will be the Comets' next foe. Palomar will play host at Memorial Field in the 8 p.m. contest October 17. In the Hartnell win, the first score came with 3:42 remaining in the first quarter, as tailback Russ Ostarello capped a 46 yard drive with a one yard score off left tackle. Later Comet Gene Dixon intercepted a Hartnell pass one yard deep in the end zone and returned it to the 20 yard line. From there quarterback Craig Beukelman directed the locals on a 14 offensive play drive to cover the 80 remaining yards and even the score at 7-7. This came with 14 seconds remaining in the first half. Rick Barrios took a Beukelman pitch-out and connected on a nine-yard touchdown pass to tight end Doug Blake to give the · Comets the tying score. With 1:08 left in the third quarter, Hartnell, on a short punt, took possession on the Comets' 39 yard line and seven plays later crossed the goal line for a 14-7 lead. The Comets received a break midway in the fourth quarter when the Panthers' punter, on a fourth and 25 situation, fumbled the snap from center and the locals took over on the 34 yard line of Hartnell. After fumbling the ball in the first series of downs, Palomars' defense again forced Hartnell to punt from deep in their own territory. The Panthers' punter kicked the ball off the side of his foot and watched it sail out of bounds on his own 30 yard line. On second down and 10 Beukelman lofted a high floater to split end Mike Cameron who made a spectacular catch in the left corner of the end zone for the score. On the two point conversion attempt, Beukelman threw behind intended receiver Cameron and the score remained 14-13 in Hartnell's favor. The Comets' defense held after the kickoff and again forced the Panthers to punt . With two minutes remaining in the game Coach Mack Wiebe's team found themselves one point down and 82 yards away from changing that score. Beukelman connected on two passes with Cameron for 12 and 14 yards and hit Mark Rainer for 17. Then came Letuligasanoa's winning jaunt. Letuligasanoa led Comet rushers with 110 yards gained on 22 carries . Rees added 41 yards on ll carries to finish up second in the rushing column. Cameron was on the receiving end of seven passes for 90 yards, with Rainer grabbing three for 47 yards.
Wester & Co. run today Palomar's unbeaten cross country team, now 2-0 in conference action, will visit the defending Mission Conference champions, Grossmont College today at Grossmont. The Comets took the first seven places last Friday and blitzed the visiting Riverside City College 15-50. Freshman Wilbur Wester paced the rest of the Comet harriers with a time of 21:52 for the four mile course. It was a course record for the Palomar course. Behind Wester in second through seventh places were, John Simon (22:38), Les McFadden (23:34), Ian Cumming (23:51), Bob Strutton (24:07), Jay Larkin (24:17) and Vaughn Lord (24:39). "Wester is amazing for a freshman," Comet coach Mike Curran said. "But Grossmont has two runners with faster times . We have done well, better than we expected, but it will take a super effort against Gross mont."
