Dental assistant course organized for fall semester Four years of labor have finally borne fruit for Dr. Fredrick Huber and Dean Virgil Bergman. Palomar will have a dental assistant course in more than name only this fall. Even though much work remains to be accomplished before the course is a practical reality, including the hiring of instructors, it is in swift motion after being approved by the Board of Trustees . This course is designed to benefit the multi-cultural, aid in alleviating the current shortage of dental assistants in North County, and provide another meaningful outlet for feminine talent. It is expected and hoped by the Vocational department that the dental assistant course wlll eventually lead into a dental hygiene rating. Both a certificate program and an associate degree will be offered in the new skill. North County dentists have been active in supporting the establishment of this program and eagerly await the first graduating class. The original fall class wlll be limited to 30 students.
Geology field trip returns with finds Nipton, California, was the exploration point for Richard Noble's geology classes field trip this year. Nipton is an abandoned town that was once used for a railroad loading dock for the various mines in the area. The students found a hollow mountain full of limestone caverns and mine shafts. They also found some good mines and turquoise mines and other mines that are uniquely rare. Samples of uncut and unpolished turquoise and pieces of antimony, the soft metal used in toothpaste tubes, were among the many specimans broughtback for study. The students also found some marine fossil coral paleozoics which were found to be 300 million years old. This was the last trip to Nipton since it is being sold for a tourist attraction.

GRADUATED FROM USC WITH HONORS
Willis tells of interests in sciences by Aleta Dirdo One of the brightest minds to graduate from the University of Southern Californi a is currently employed as a geology, geography, and the sole astronomy instructor at Palomar. When Joseph P . Willis graduated from USC's c lass of '57 with 240 units and a B-plus average, he had the highest grade point average in his class. If anyone enrolled in any of his classes is finding it difficult to make a grade, consider that the instructor broke the record set in 1913 on the graduation record exam at USC when he made over 98 percent, entitling him to an honorary membership in elite scientifi c group, the Society of Economic Paleontologists and Mineralogis ts. Yet, he never graduated from high school. "When the war came along, it interrupted school. I didn't like the idea, but I didn't resist ·-I just didn't like it," he declares firmly . Growing up in Los Angeles around movie studios is a perfect opportunity for a boy or girl to break into show business, which was almost the case with Willis. "I went to school with such cel ebrities as Mort Sahl and Richard Crenna, and for awhile I played clarinet for the movies under contract to Columbia, and, " he adds laughingly, "I sometimes made more than my father." In expl aining why he didn't continue his career, he smiles in reminiscence and murmurs half to himself, "I was more interested in geology. I 1ike rocks better than people or bugs or anything. '' After serving in the "now defunct Army Air Force," as a gunner on a B-29,
he enrolled at USC to major in geology. "After the first semester, I was called into the dean's office where theynotified me of having the highest grades in that area," he admitted modestly after some prompting. "After that, I finished school on a scholarship from Standard Oi l.' • Math, geology, astronom y, geography
and physics are among the courses he has taught since he began in 1958, geology, of course, being his favorite . He left teaching at Fullerton and USC to come to Palomar. After ten years at Palomar, he reflects on why he left LA. "I liked LA, really, except for the (Continued on page 2)
