PEACOCK SPEAKS OUT
Candidate decries apathy John Stull is the incumbent state assemblyman for the eightieth district which includes Palomar College. On November 3 he will be challenged not only by a Democratic candidate, but also by Mr. Richard Peacock, head of the English Department, who is running on the Peace and Freedom ticket. THE TELESCOPE asked Peacock to state some of his feelings in the following interview. TELESCOPE--Three years ago, when the Peace and Freedom party was first forming, . there seemed to be a large block of people who felt that there was a need for the party. Do you feel that the need is still there, and if so, is the need now the same as it was then? PEACOCK--"! think there's still a need for the Peace and Freedom party. Probably more than there ever has been. · "The reason the Peace and Freedom party got going to begin with was because a number of people still had a basic trust in the electoral system. A number of people on the left felt that they hadn't had a legitimate voice in government, and couldn't achieve that voice through either the Republican or Democratic parties. "There is a need for that kind of thing. I still believe - I have to - in the electoral system. That's why I chose to run as a candidate. "There seems to be, if I'm picking up the tenure of the country right, a basic frustration and lack of trust in the electoral system now. "People are either dropping out or choosing some other form of protest. It's rather sad. But I can understand it. TELESCOPE--Vice-President Agnew travels throughout the country making statements about choosing the police nightstick over the anarchist's bomb. Governor Reagan talks about a bloodbath on state college and university campuses. These statements seem to be directed at dividing this society. How do you feel about statements such as these? PEACOCK--"Well, they are divisionary. I think that they have chosen the nightstick. It's not that they will. I am very pessimistic in this regard. "I can't understand why there is such strong feeling against youth. This seems to be the most popular election issue. It's the thing that Stull, Reagan, and every politician is into. I see it in simple terms, hatred of the young. "This is especially true of this area. I think that there is too much important money and too much power to allow for any significant variations in lifestyles in this particular area. "I don't see things getting any better in North County. I see this becoming a monied retirement community with the power of the police at their disposal. They aren't going to let anybody mess up the real estate interests. "This whole area is on the verge of becoming one huge tract of homes. Expensive homes. They've got their army at the barricades, I'm afraid . I hope I'm not right. "I see young people on the coast tryi ng to do a simple thing as trying to start a small business. One by one they are usually harassed out of business. The people in power aren't about to let the coast become anything they don't want it to become. TELESCOPE--You are opposing Assemblyman John Stull from this district. Do you feel that you can represent this area better than Mr. Stull? PEACOCK-- "I think I could if I had a chance. In fact, a lot of people could

"One of the problems that Stull is taking advantage of but not really addressing himself to, and it's tragically so, is the alienation of the young. "This has gone on for the last seven or eight years now, throughout the United States. That's alienation in terms ofthe Vietnam war. "Young people just cannot relate to fighting for this cause. They are being sorely tested in terms of conscience. They are literally risking family, friends and their future for this decision. "Alienation in terms of the economy. They're not getting a break with jobs. They're being discriminated against in terms of their lifestyle . The young are being harassed by the economic leaders, political leaders and the law enforcement agencies. "When the leaders come on this way it blows the campus situation way out
of proportion. I think they're doing this society a great disservice. One that repercussions will be felt for the next thirty years.
"It's a sorry state when you see the lines of young people down at San Diego State and every university in the country. These people want to take courses, want an education, want to really participate in this society. They're being locked out, whether in terms of closed classes, not enough teachers, or not enough funds. It has become a political football. "Violence is a real problem. But you have to look beyond the superficial and get into the real causes. "When you institutionalize violence. When people are taught to be violent, people are trained in the Army to be violent. To -think that violence is not a part of the fabric of America is simply being naive. It is a tragedy that it is so, but you cannot, unfortunately, isolate this sort of thing, once it starts, it just spreads. "I'm for law and order, but I think law and order should start at the top. ''When you have Senator Murphy on the payroll of Technicolor, when you have the mayor of San Diego along with city councilmen allegedly being bought off by the Yellow Cab Company, that's when you talk about law and order, and that's where it starts. "Now suddenly you have the San Diego Union saying that "you're innocent until proven guilty" and "let's be cautious" They never write that about persons charged with possession, for instance. "For a public official to take a bribe is the worst crime that can be committed in a society. Much worse than someone sitting in his bedroom smoking a number, hurting no other person. Yet, what gets the headlines, day in and day out? "You're not fooling the young people and you're not fooling society. They can rant on about all of their law and order, but it's the hypocrisy of it all that's so grating. "It's the hypocrisy of reading about the violence of Isla Vista while the violence of My Lai is on the fourth page of the paper. "My original reason for running was hopefully to bring a kind of unity of sentiment within North County but I don't know if the people are even interested in that anymore."
California Home Ec. Association will present two scholarships Two $500 scholarships will be presented to eligible students during the 1971-72 school year by the California Home Economics Association. Avail able for use in the fall of 1971 the scholarships are the California Home Econorpics Association Scholarship, and the Betty Lamp Fund Scholarship. The former is available to both college level students and graduating high school seniors, while the latter is available only to college sophomores, juniors, and first semester seniors. College applicants must have Grade Point Averages of at least 3.0. These scholarships are open to men or women who plan to complete a baccalaureate degree in Home Economics at an accredited college or university in California. Scholarship winners may major in any field of Home Economics. High school Home Economics is not a requirement. A committee of members from the California Home Economics Association will select the winners. Awards will be announced publicly in April of 1971. Payment of the scholarships will be made in two equal sums: one half at the time of confirmation of registration for the fall semester, and one half at
the initiation of the following registration period, and upon completion of a full-time schedule with grades averaging "B" or above for the preceding period. For directions in applying, see Mrs . Marjorie Wallace in A-62.

Environmental lecture blames overpopulation "Pollution: The Problem and How to Fight It" was the topic of a lecture by environmentalist Dr. Norman K. Sanders, Tuesday night at MiraCosta College. Speaking before a crowd of several hundred people Sanders first enumerated the main causes of the pollution problem, later explaining the methods available to the average citizen to aid in his fight against it. Citing the ever-growing population as the basic problem, Dr. Sanders said, "We've simply got too many people. Nature can handle limited amounts of pollution, but now our natural systems are breaking down.'' The reason that people are such a problem, aside from their numbers, is that, according to Sanders, they are fighting the environment. "We still have the attitude that the environment is the enemy- -there to be exploited," he said. Sanders proposed the use of birth control to reduce population but saw little chance of success, due to two factors.
One factor, he called the "Go West Syndrome." People believe that our resources are infinite, and that they will always be able to move to a different area in much the same manner as the pioneers moved westward. Also, people can't admit that they are wrong, according to Sanders who said, "To do the things we need done, we have to admit that we have been wrong in the past.'' Citing specific problems, Sanders talked about water pollution and the need for sewage recycling, land pollution and air pollution. As a partial solution to the pollution problem, Sanders said, "The law is a very important part of the environmental defense program." He emphasized the importance of strong laws governing the output of pollutants by industry. To keep the emphasis on the environment, Sanders called for the establishment of a national goal, saying, "We got a man on the moon in 1970 because we set 1970 as our goal. Let's set the goal that we'll have a man swimming in Lake Erie by 1980!" Sanders was the first to speak in a series of four lectures entitled "Lectures on the Environment.'' The next lecture will be Baroness Jane Goodall, who will speak on November 4, at 8 p.m. in the Dome.

Comets take on Saddleback Grids tackle 14th ranked
THE TELESCOPE
Gauchos tomorrow night It will be another top-ranked, undefeated football opponent for Palomar College at home tomorrow night at 8 p.m. The amazing Comets, who opened the Mission Conference last Thursday with a 27-22 triumph over Riverside City College, will take on a Saddleback College team that Palomar head coach Mack Wiebe rates even better than Riverside. The Tigers, unbeaten and unscored upon and ranked tenth in the state before meeting Palomar, will be followed by a Gaucho squad that is 3-0 and was ranked fourteenth nationally after their second win. Saddleback opened with a 33-13 romp over MiraCosta, followed with a 15- 8 win over Cypress, and now share the conference lead with the Comets after edging Chaffey, 16-15, last Saturday. Palomar used a 186-yard rushing performance by big fullback Tony Letuligasenoa, a 95-yard touchdown run on a reverse by split end Rex Holloway and a defense that was tough when it had to be in overcoming a 15-0 Riverside lead. Holloway caught a 37-yard pass from quarterback Rick Barrios that setup what proved to be the winning touchdown, a nine-yard toss to Letuligasenoa, who had scored Palomar's first TD on a 25-yard run. Barrios was subbing for starter QB Craig Beukelman, who was forced to leave the contest with a hip pointer. Beukelman will be back Saturday, but Barrios will be Palomar's starter. Tight end Doug Blake, injured in Palomar's 20-14 win over Hartnell, should be ready to play Saturday, although Mark Rainer will remain as the starter. The Comets continue to have problems at right tackle, where either Stan Gida will return as a starter, or either Rick Muren or Rick Ashby will replace him . Muren turned in an outstanding defensive performance against Riverside at linebacke r and should he be used offensively, Marc Radlinski will be employed at linebacker. Scott Free, also injured against Hartnell, will return, but David Stephens will keep his starting job, along with middle linebacker Wayne Jennings. Defensive tackle Mark Karges will be
Harriers at home; host tri-meet Palomar's cross country squad, foiled in its upset bid against defending Mission Conference champion Grossmont College last Friday, will take a major step towards a second place finish today. The Comets will host Saddleback and San Bernardino Valley College in s triangular meet on the Palomar four mile course. Despite a tremendous effort by Wilbur Wester, the Comets were unable to dethrone the powerful Grossmont Griffins. Wester won the race by a full 200 yards and set a new all-time course record of 20:58 for the Santee Lakes run. The Comet harriers stayed well in the race for the first three miles , but Grossmont's depth won out, and the Comets lost 23 to 37. The starting line up for today•s "twin bill" and their times against Grossmont include: Wilbur Wester (20:5 8) , John Simon (21:41), Les McFadden (22:20), Jay Larkin (22:53), Bob Strutton (23:06), Ian Cumming (23:55), Mark Blakeslee (24:59 ) Sam Taylor (25:21), and Tom Paulson (26:13).

out of action after an injury against Riverside and will be replaced by Steve Schmidt. Richard Garcia will open at the other tackle spot, with Roger Redding and Jim Ridlon at defensive ends. One change in the defensive backfield for Saddleback will find Mike Dedic replacing the injured Jim Gaupsas, with Gene Dixon, Alton Matthews and David Edgar also listed as starters. "Once we got things going, we looked pretty good against Riverside," Wiebe said. "That was a great win for us. But Saddleback, I'm afraid, is going to be even tougher. Their running back (Toby Whipple) is even tougher than Lewis (Riverside's David Lewis)." · But Saddleback may have an even tougher task in stopping Letuligasenoa, who has rolled over opponents for 380 yards in three games so far this season, averaging 5. 7 yards per carry. Flanker Mike Cameron leads Comet receivers with ll catches for 140 yards and one score thus far this season. Hal Collier has accounted for seven receptions for 97 yards and two touchdowns, while Letuligasenoa, Holloway, and Blake have each hauled in one aerial score. Freshmen quarterbacks, Barrios and Beukelman have both thrown for three scores. Barrios has completed 8 of 22 attempts with three interceptions, while Beukelman has completed on 20 of 48 with two interceptions.

"The Night Thoreau Sprnt in Jail" is one of those pre· cious gems of theater which combines wit ?nd s~bstance i;, its make-up. Playwrights Je· rome Lawrence and Robert E. Lee have concocted a perceptive and unceasi ngly fascinating study of a man with tormented thoughts but a soul serenely confident in his right· ness. 'Knife-Like Humor' Henry David Thoreau, say Lawrence and Lee, had "knife-like hnmor , fierce Nnviction and devastating indi· viduality." and they proceed to demonstrate how devns· tating those qualities could be to the lesser end1wed who crossed his path and how in· triguing they can te for the theater audier.ce.
