Deferment request advised for frosh Freshmen now subject to the draft should request II-S deferments immediately according to Rick Jahnkow, local draft counselor. Confusion stemming from the delayed enactment of the new draft law has caused many students to not request Form 109 and college personnel not to process the form. By filling out the form and sending a simple letter to his local board requesting the II-S classification, the freshman may be able to insure deferment for four years of college. The draft extension was actually not signed into law until September 28 and before that date the old regulations were still in effect. "First, the · tudent must fill out the green form ,Jrc•vided in the Admissions Office so that lhe college may certify his full time status. The college will complete the form 109 and mail it to his local board," reported Jahnkow. "Simultaneously he should write his board requesting the Il-S deferment on the grounds he began classes be-
By nosela DelCastillo "Involvement" is the motto of MECHA (Chicano Student Movement for Aztlan) one of the more active clubs on and off campus. In fact, so tremendous are the club's activities and participation that at last semester's officer elections, they voted to have a dual leadership to direct the club's diverse activities. Carlos Encinas and Ester Villareal share the duties of the presidency by dividing the large amount of work into two areas, the campus and the community. "Carlos and I were both very active last year and became very close working together. Carlos had had more experience working with the community and understanding the community needs. Whereas, I could talk well with the administration and function better in campus affairs," Miss Villareal explained. "Since M ECHA was formed by men, they have always held the best positions. Last semester Ester and I were very active, Encinas said, We both worked hard toward the same goals a nd were well informed about the club's needs and functions. Ester thought Chicana girls should also have some weight in the club. So we decided on a eo- chairmanship based on LaMesa •s. '' Among the duties Carlos has as community chairman are organizing MECHA members to recruit other Chicano students to further their education and forming Chicano clubs on high school campuses such as I\1A YA and ICHA. He also serves as a member of the north County Chicano Federation and is coordinator for La naza Unid a Party in the north county whose present project is registering voters. Ester's tasks include meeting with the administration regarding problems which affect Chicano students and assisting with the counseling of Chicano students. Ester is also in charge of organizing meetings with students on campus and seeing that club finances run as smoothly as possible. Or as she put it,"Carlos' job is to bring stude nts in; my job is to keep them in." A very independent and hardworking organizer, Ester's plans for the club include having meetings exc lusively for and about Chicana girls. "Chicana girls feel suppressed because there is so much machismo in Mexican guys . They get together at meetings and they really don't want us there sometimes. They cling to the belief that a woman's place is at home. "our culture is different from Anglo chicks. Chicanas just can't relate, so they don't get involved. I think that in an allfemale club, we'll all be equals. No people we can't relate to and no guys who want to take over. Every week or month we could change chairmen, and in this way everyone would learn and no one would feel left out." Ester continues to speak of other goals enthusiastically. "First were going to rewrite the constitution, give dances to build our treasury, and provide good tutorial counseling services.

fore the new regulations went into effect and is thus entitled to the reclassification.'' Selective Service Director Curtis Tarr had questionably issued a directive to local boards ordering them not to defer freshmen in lieu of law changes . He also wrote all school registrars advising them not to process 109 forms for frosh . Palomar admission personnel took the advice of Tarr and were not compl eting certification papers until earli er this week. They have promised to send 109 forms in for any student requesting it at this time. "If it doesn't defer the student then it should at least delay induction considerably," said Jahnkow. "If the Tarr directive is at a later time declared illegal then every fresh man registrant whose file contains a II-S request may be entitled to some form of re-evaluation." Jahnkow advises those needing more information or help to attend the North County Draft Coffee held every Thursday at 7:30 p.m. at 1956 Seaview Ave. in Del Mar.
MECHA stresses 'involvement' on campus, in community I want everyone to know MECHA is to help people. People think MECHA is a militant group. "We encourage people who have questions to come in and speak to us. I mean, it's really that people understand us and our purpose. We're trying to get people educated. Raise them from Barrios and elevate their conditions by education. If militancy is progression, then I guess we are." Carlos nods calmly, expressing his own expectations for MECHA. "I want us to keep progressing. When I was first in MECHA we were only a few. Now there has been a 70 percent increase in membership. I hope future leaders will be strong and motivated to keep the organization together. We have so many programs that have to be kept going. Such as the tutorial, which tutors Chicanos who need help in any subject a nd the peer counseling. If the club loses these objectives, then MECHA will crumble. The future of MECHA lies in the hands of the leaders.'' Ester looks thoughtful and asserts, "This is why we all have to function together as a powerful people. Even if it means separating the women, so that they may feel more confident about the future. In this way Unidos Vencermos ( united we will overcome)."

Today is the final day of balloting in the ASG election. Polling is being conducted in the Student Union patio between 9 a.m. and 3 p.m . There are 38 candidates running for the 25 open positions . The earlier reported number of 46 was inflated due to several people running for more than one office. A full list of candidates previously appeared in the TELESCOPE. Since that time, there have been some major withdrawals and disqualifications. Pauline Woody has been disqualified as a candidate for president and Kathy Ligon did not meet the standards necessary to be a candidate for treasurer, although she is running for several other offices. There have been two withdrawals in the race for multi - cultural representative, leaving that a one-man contest. Other conditions and withdrawals are duly noted on the printed ballots.
Ida Horowitz's "soft room" environmental exhibit has inspired students to call for new concepts in classroom design.

College admissions start California's State Colleges under a Common Admissions program will be accepting applications for the fall, 1972 term during this November. During the 1971-72 fall cycle,California state colleges receiving applications under this program were able to accomodate 93 percent of all freshman applicants, 76 percent of all lower division transfers, 97 percent of all juniors, 93 percent of all seniors and 97 percent of all graduate applicants at colleges of their choice. The application procedures have remained the same. Students must file their applications during November 130. All applications received during that time receive equal consideration within the college ' s establi shed enrollment categories and quotas. At San Diego State the percentages were slightly better for those students who chose that school as their first choice. 97 percent of all freshmen, 40 percent sophomores, and 100 percent of all juniors, seniors, and graduates who applied were admitted.
The application is then submitted to the state college of first choice. Only one application , however, can be made to the California State system. If the college of first choice cannot accomodate the applicant, the application is redirected to an alternate choice .
Deadlines set for scholarships Important deadlines in the 1971-72 State Scholarship competition fall within the next few weeks. The November 6 Scholastic Aptitude Test registration closes on October 20. The State Scholarship application dead line date is November 19. Each year several hundred applicants are eliminated from the competition because of failure to submit test scores or to meet application deadlines. All applicants must have a social security number and place it on the application form. Students must place their legislative district numbers on the application form or it will be returned for compl etion. Accuracy of the district numbers listed must be verified. The necessary numbers are provided on the back of the scholarship application. The size of the new State Scholarships for use at independent colleges will range from $500 to $2 ,000 with the awards never exceed ing tuition and fees. If you have any further questions, information is available in A-61.

Footballers host Grossmont tomorrow Score big upset over Saddleback last week By Jim Karounos Injury-riddled Palomar hos ts Grossmont tomorrow night at 7: 30 after shocking Saddleback 25-21 in a costly grid battle for the Comets. According to Trainer Bill "Gunny " Dedic, te n Com e ts we r e in jured in last week's league opene r. "Dave Edga r will be out the r es t of the se as on with a knee injury. We do not know when Gil Smith, Dave Briley, Boh Kinl e y,and Jose Espar za will be r eady to play again," sa id Dedi c . The othe r five injure d should he r eady for action tomorrow night. The high- s pirited locals we r e the fir s t team in Saddlehack's four-y e ar history to ever defea t the Mission Viejo school on their own home fi e ld. Alton Mathew s et the example for the rest of the local' s defense picking off one of Soh Bosanko' s p as s e s e a rly in the first quarter. Mark Seymour follow ed Mathew's example and ran the stolen pass into the end zone for the Comet' s first score . The opponents got on the scoreboard with a pass play from Bob Dulich, who shared the QB spot with Bosanko, to Soh Haupert. Steve Carpenter kicked the PAT giving Saddlehack the lead for the first time . Jack Thoreson ended a first-quarter drive for the Comets by bursting into the end zone from four yards out to regain the lead for the Comets. Rick Barrios s et up the only second quarter touchdown on a pass "play to Gary Prim . Barrios sprinted over from 10 yards out, extending the Comet's lead 18-7. Gil Smith deflected one of Bosanko's passes into the waiting arms of Dave Stephens ending another Saddle back drive. Dave Briley and Art Roberts decided to get into the act by picking off two more Saddl e hack pas ses upsetting their offe nsive drives . The alert Comet defensive recovered
Cross country at home today Palomar College's cross country squad, destined again to finish second in the Mission Conference, claimed a doubledual victory last Saturday at Chaffey. Today they host Saddleback, with the · Comets favored to up their conference record to 5-1. In their last outing, they scored a 15- 47 win over Chaffey and a 15-48 mark over San Bernardino. Coach Mike Curran is quite proud of his runners, believing, "These runners are paying the price for a successful season. They are hard workers and they know the meaning of the word •team'." The cross country team has already outrun last year's outstanding group (a team that finally finished second in the Mission Conference). At mid-season, this 1971 team has an overall team average of 44 seconds faster, placed second in the Moorpark Invitaand sports a 4-1 record.
a loos e football in the end zone spoiling another chance for Saddleback to pick up s ix points. Finally, at- the end of the third quarter, the opponents were able to pick up seven points . Saddle back managed to score another s even in the fourth quarte r on a pass play from Dulich to Haupe rt and anothe r s uccesful PAT by Carpenter. This was the first tim e since the first quarte r that the opponents held the lead . Rex Hollowa y gave the Comets the winning touchdown on a run of 25 yards late in the final period . Barrios kicked the PAT to secure the 25-21 victory for the Com e ts. The defens e for the Comets will have a great influence on the game. Two of the defensive s tarte rs are out this week and one was badly shaken up in last week's game. Grossmont's strong point is their defense. In preseason play they suffered two losses: one to Harper and then one to Mesa who bombed them 28- 7. Last week in conference opening action they fell to Riverside 19-14.
In last week's action, Rick Bennet (22) squirts through a hole as Mike Outlaw (65) and Jeff Frye (55) throw a
couple of good blocks. Pete Yorkoski ( 80) looks on after his block was thrown. Palomar won the contest 25-21.
