Expected policy changes clarified by draft board The Selective Service System has clarified expected policy changes on undergraduate student deferments. College students who were enrolled full time in the 1970-71 academic year will be eligible for student deferments in the 1971- 72 school year if they continue to make satisfactory progress in their programs of study, Selective Service officials said. However, young men who entered school for the first time this summer and those who enroll as freshmen this fall
Transfer changes create concern "A lot of kids are going to be hurt" according to Mr. 0. Byron Gibbs, head of the Counseling Department, because of a possible change in the 60-unit transfer rule for state colleges. As described in the monthly newspaper of the California Junior College Association (CJCA), action is being taken by the trustees in a two- day meeti ng this week on the possible change. The paper states that the present rule is being reconsidered because it is "unfair and discriminatory" according to the state colleges. The new rule outlined in July modifies t he existing law and contains a requirment of 60 units of transferable credit. In addition, credit for both admission a nd degree purposes would be made the same. This, in effect, makes "remedi al, developmental and certain non- transferable vocational-technical type courses" non- applicable toward admission. CJCA executive director Lloyd E. Messersmith expressed the assoc iation's view by stating that CJCA "simply cannot support" the state colleges on this rule. Messersmith continued, "The real concern of course is one of penalty to t he student a nd we feel the state coll eges have not addressed themselves to this fact.'' In addition, if the new law is passed each college will have the right to set up its own standards as to transferability of courses.
Young Republicans meet There will be an organizational meeting for the Young Republicans at 11 a.m. Friday in room P - 20. The purpose of the meeting will be to elect officers and discuss projects for the coming year. All those interested should plan on attend ing this important meeting.
will not qualify for student deferments if the pending changes to the Selective Service Act are finall y passed by Congress . Dr. Curtis W. Tarr, Selective Service director, said "Few incoming freshmen students are likely to be inducted in the near future because of the student deferment phaseout. " Of the 1,034,000 incoming freshman males estimated by the Office of Education, approximately 80 percent are 18 years old and only 20 percent are 19 years of age and older. The 18 year olds will receive their lottery numbers in 1972, and they will not be subject to induction until 1973, when draft calls should be low. The 19 year old freshmen received their lottery numbers August 5 of this year and will be subject to induction next year; at least one half should have high e nough lottery numbers to preclude their induction. Of those remaining, approximately 50 percent will be disqualified on mental, moral or physical grounds. This means that a maximum of 50,000 men will be directly affected in 1972 by the student deferment phaseout and onehalf of these, or 25,000, will probably not be inducted because of enlistments in regular, reserve or National Guard units, participating in commissioning p rograms or because of procedural delays. Dr. Tarr said that college students will not be drafted in the middle of a semester or term. "If called while enrolled, they will be allowed to postpone the ir induction until the end of the semester, or te r m. If in their last academic year , they will be able to postpone the ir induction until after graduation.''

Patrons need new members Pal,OO' of Palomar, a volunteer organization of north county citizens supporting Palomar students and projects, has issued a general invitation for new members for the 1971-72 college year. The organization directs much of its program toward raising funds for scholarships and other student assistance. "Parents of college students, adult students attending the college, and all interested citizens are urged to join and participate in Patrons activities," said Mrs. W. F. Pulver, membership chairman. She pointed out that the Patrons' aid to the students for 1970-71 reached a new high mark. Awards to three sophomores going on to four-year colleges were increased from $200 to $300. The $100 scholarships for returning Palomar sophomore . were increased from three to four. Honors Day awards of $100 each were given to three high school students planning to enroll here. The Patrons Nursing schol arship was raised from $50 to $200.

Much of the funds for these benefits are raised at the annual Pink Elephant sale which netted more than $2,400 last spring. Dates for the 1972 sale have been set for May 12 and 13 . "The other needed funds must be raised through membership dues," Mrs. Pulver said.
