A ssembly continues forming committees By Dave Fetzer Committee selection was once again the order of business at last Monday's Student Assembly meeting. The main point of controversy at the first meeting, the curriculum committee, was resolved quite quickly. After the five candidates present and one proxy for the sixth stated their reasons for wanting this position, the entire slate was easily passed. These six are Amelia Calac, Rose Duro, John Higdon, Tito Encinas, Santos Cruz and Ester Villareal, who sent a proxy in her place. Surprisingly, thes e six were the same group that were the subject of the debates at last week's meeting. Chairman Jess Torres pointed out that these six can be removed at any time by president Garvin. Next on the agenda was the approval of two representatives to the Scholarship committee. The two nominees were Sharon Lowe and Jill Moore. Garvin explained his choices by saying that it was hard to find people with experience. Describing his choices, Garvin said, "Educationally they qualify, intellectually they qualify." Parliamentarian Ray Daniel, however, questioned whether the committee screened applicants for aid and scholarships. Dean Marjorie Wallace, head of financial aids, exp lained. "These students,"路 she said, " would participate in
scholarship awards in the spring sem ester.'' It was discovered that no one really knew enough about the activities of the committee for a proper vote; so, on Jess Torres' suggestion, approval was delayed to Thursday's meeting. The only real semblance of firework s came during discussion of Garvin's appointments to the Student Publications Board. The three named were TELE- . SCOPE Editor Vic Heman, reporter Rosela DelCastillo and Cher Kunz. Ray Daniel sparked the debate by suggesting a possible conflict of interest, especially in the case of Heman. Representative Gary Fokken then stated that he "didn't believe Garvin had enough knowledge to clarify the conflict of interest matter and the actions of the committee both. Daniel retorted that Garvin should have the knowledge in this matter. Finally, Garvin withdrew his recommendations. The closing matter of business was the report from the newly appointed rules committee. There was slight disagreement on the matter of initiation and passing of constitutional amendments. As Fokken put it, "We legislate, students elect." However, it was later stated that interpretation of the constitution is the responsibility of the Judicial Advocates. With no further discussion, a motion was approved to have the committee recommendations put under further study and the meeting was adjourned .

By Rosela DelCastillo Drawing on Smoky Mountain lore, legend, music, and magic, "Dark of the Moon" opened to a near-capacity audience November 4. 路 This allegorical story of a witchboy who wishes to be human so that he can marry mortal Barbara Allen, had an interesting and timely theme which was brought out with humor and irony.

Draft debated by five instructors By Dave Fetzer
He next pointed out the necessity he felt for America to always be prepared to defend itself. Chambless asserted that past history can be forgotten and that the "time frontier is gone . War is total," he said. "It embraces every

citizen. We should ask ourselves what we can do most satisfactorily for our society." Finally, he described volunteer armies as being often "composed of men looking for citizenship." This was subsequently equated with morale as Chambless warned, "Destroy morale and you destroy the army." He ended with the now familiar line, "There is no substitute for victory." ASG president Robert Garvin, himself an ex-Marine, opened the case for the con side. He called the attitude that "war is inevitable," "dangerous and defeatist. " Garvin, unlike Dr. Chambless, c hose to use statistics to back up his charges with statistics. "In 19 67," he claimed, "there was a possible pool of two milion men between the ages of 18 and 26, yet only 300,000 were actually drafted." Garvin defended the volunteer army

Room P-32 was where the action and the people were last Friday as the Young Democrats sponsored a debate on the pros and cons of the draft. Approximately 220 students were in attendance, filling the room to near capacity. These 220 were not dissappointed as they were treated to a lively and informative di scussion. With the two teams alternating, Dr. Beauford Chambless started the proceedings for the pro side. His main reasons for supporting were that the draft "produces a better soldier" and it "divides the burden" most equally "among the largest group" of citizens.

system as being ''less costly.'' He claimed that it would "eliminate the hassles of compulsory systems.'' The current system he chose to call a "form of explicit tax" on the fighting man. The next speaker for the pro side was John Tanner, Palomar instructor. His basic points were backed up by historical data. The main charge made in his remarks was that ''committing to a volunteer a rmy would be discriminatory to minorities.'' Tanner warned that we must "keep a strong division between the citizen and military mentality, with civilian control." Richard Peacock of the faculty was the next con speaker, claiming that the first two pro-sid e speakers had contradictory viewpoints. He refuted Dr. Chambless' claim that a volunteer army would be one of immigrants by pointing out that "many immigrants came to the (Continued on back page)

were shown in scenes throughout the play. When John, the witchboy, firstarrives as a human to the village, he is regarded with prejudice because he is a stranger. After they discover he is willing to marry husbandless and pregnant Barbara Allen he is accepted by her family. Preacher Haggard is another symbol employed to depict hypocrisy. Biblequoting, soul-saving Preacher Haggard, quotes to fit every occasion, even when drinking "mountain dew.'' Perhaps the most powerful and meaningful scene in the story and performed by the cast was a revival scene which shows hypocrisy at its highest level. The scene was of the gathered congregation singing hymns to save the people on the mourner 's bench. When the mourners felt ready to repent they confessed their sin and were re- admitted among the other people . Mrs. Allen forces Barbara Allen. who has just borne a witch child. to the mourners bench so that she may repent for marrying a witch. The people become so insistent and vicious that Barbara reveals that John will cease to be a witch if she remains faithful on that last day that will complete a year of their marriage. By using the argument that John wasn't with her when she had the child, they convince her into believing the terrible sin she will be committing if she does remain faithful. Confused and pressured, Barbara relents. Marvin Hutchings , her former boyfriend, takes advantage of the situation to "save her soul" by volunteering to seduce her. This ultimately leads to a pessimistic ending. This ensemble acting and the witch's ballet, which was choreographed by Kim Eckert, were the show's highlights. The folk songs, played and danced through the show added variety and country flavor to the folk story. Leads Steve Phelps, who had good technical movements, and Rosemary Powers executed journeyman performances in their roles opening night. More interplay between them might have added to the credibility in their roles. Standing out with her interpretation of I\Trs Allen was Ahva Rana. Miss Rana displayed her talent by playing the guitar, singing and carrying the role of Barbara Allen's aged mother quite well. In the role of Uncle Smelycue, the balladeer, Bob Kendricks also turned out a well done job. Fairwitch, Cher Woodward and Darkwitch Darlene Laskowski were pleasing assets to the supernatural side of the cast. As a whole, the cast worked well together in the fine production scenes, probably due to the efforts of Buddy .-\shbrook, director. Supporting cast members included : John Higdon, Doll y Laskowski , Cher Woodward, Mary Vollmer, Vic Machanis, Claudia Keithley, Bob Kendrick and Cher Kunz. Special effects created by Norm Gaskin's, technical director, technical crew were interesting. Audience commentaries were made on the shadowy lighting, making it difficult to observe the actors expressions and reactions. "Dark of the Moon" will continue to play tonight and tomorrow night at 7:30 p.m. in p - 33. Tickets are $1.50 for adults and $.50 for students.

Homecoming set tomorrow night Draft arguments debated by five local instructors
Locals host San Berdoo in annual football game San Bernardino invades Escondido's Memorial Field tomorrow night at 7:30, for Palomar's Homecoming game and festivites. One of this year's highlights will be the crowning of the Homecoming Queen and her court. Both teams are out of title contention but the two teams always seem to have a tight battle,with the Indians winning last years meeting 14-7. Palomar lost a 23-22 heartbreaker to Southwestern last week in Chula Vista, dropping the Comets to 1-3-1 in loop play, and 2-5-1 overall. San Bernardino won its first game of the season and has lost six straight. The visiting team from San Berdoo, has an offense centered around sophmore quarterback Mark Blumenthal and are physically a large team, but also are considered to lack speed. Palomar's attack is based on running, primarily by fullback Jack Thoreson. The 208-pound freshman has been the workhorse of the Comets offense all year, averaging 91 yards a game on 20 carries . For the season he has carried the ball 203 times for 727 yards and with this game and next week's finale at Riverside, he has an outside chance of being the first Palomar player to ever gain 1000 yards in a season. In last weekend's game, that Palomar seemed to have won, tight end Pete Yorkoski on offense and Jeff Brown on defense were named by the coaching staff as the players of the week for the Southwestern game. Yorkoski has not caught a pass all year, but is an excellent blocker. Brown has excelled on pass coverage, with an average of one interception a game. Thoreson scored the first points in the game, bucking over from two yards
out in the first quarter. Rick Barrios' kick made it 7-0, but Southwestern came back with two touchdowns and a field goal to take a 15-7 halftine lead.
In a drive that took nearly seven minutes, Palomar moved 81 yards for the go ahead TD with nine minutes remaining. This time freshman quarterback Mark Leszczynski scored the TD on a 1yard keeper and the PAT made the score 22-15. Southwestern moved the ball easily in the final minutes, but was stopped on a fourth and eight situation as Jeff Brown broke up a pass in the end zone. Palomar regained the ball with 2:41 left and Palomar could have possibly run out the clockbut instead fumbled on its second play,and Southwestern scored a touchdown over the middle and went for the big two point conversion which won the game. The probable starting line-ups for the Comets will be : On offense, Jeff Frye at center, Henry Paredes and Marc Radlinski at the guards, Mike Outlaw and Ron Williams at the tackles, Pete Yorkoski at tight-end Mike Hayes and Rex Holloway at the wide receivers amd Rich Hunt, Jack Thoreson and Mark Leszczynski in the backfield .. Defensively Palomar will go with Gil Smith and Art Roberts at the tackles, Charlie Szentsi and Steve Schmidt on the ends, Mark Seymour, Dave Briley and Dave Stephens as the linebackers, and Mike Dedic, Clark Fuller, Jeff Brown and Alton Mathews in the secondary.
Harriers take second in conference; prepare for Southern Cal finals Palomar's Wilber Wester and Grossmont's Ed Mendoza received "Outstanding Runner" awards in the Mission Conference finals Tuesday. Wester, Ian Cumming and Ron Palcic were named to the All-Mission Conference team following the eight team meet. Host Gross mont took team honors with 22 points; Palomar took second, while Citrus, Southwestern, Riverside, Saddleback, and Chaffey finished in that order. San Bernardino scratched from the meet. Mendoza was first place with a time of 20:08. Neil Branson of Grossmont was second, and Wester was third with a time of 20:39. Cummings finished sixth with ·a time of 21:03, behind two other Grossmont runners, and Palcic followed for seventh in 21:16. Other Palomar runners were Peter Welch in 15th place, Powell Harmon,
23; Ernie Castro, 24, Pat Crowell, 30; Paublo Barrera, 31; and Russ Baker, 40. Coach Mike Curran's Harriers are expected to win the small school division of the Southern California meet at Grossmont next Friday. Grossmont is expected to win the large school division of the same meet. Coach Curran said that this was the best team he has ever had in a conference meet. Cumming had an excellent day. "Ian had his best and worst race here at Grossmont," said Curran. He also said "Wilbur could win the · state meet in the great physical shape he is in now." "The top five low scoring the Southern Cal meet will state finals," added Curran. meet will be at Sierra College mento, November 26.

(Continued from page one) United States to avoid the draft" in their own countries. He also refuted Mr. Tanner's charge of discrimination by saying that "20% of the combat forces but 22% of the Vietnam deaths were black soldiers." Peacock then went on to charge that the draft and the army are both based on elitism. He stated that the rich can "avoid the draft by having money or being able to hire lawyers" while the poor cannot. The ''burden of proof'' was placed on the con team by the next speaker, Palmer Kremer. He began his · argument by quoting Democratic Sen. John Stennis of Mississippi, chairman of the Senate Armed Services Committee, who said that the "volunteer army is a flight from reality." This statement was later to backfire on Kremer, however. He sounded almost apologetic when he said that "there is always going to be a burden'' and ''nothing is going to be perfectly equitable." Kremer questioned the morality of letting "someone else do your fighting for you." Economic aspects of the issue were brought into play by Duncan McGilvray, the final speaker. He first chose to refute one of the historical pieces of data used by Tanner in his defense of the pro position. Tanner had stated that the "Confederacy beat us to the punch" in their early use of the draft for the Civil War. However, McGilvray accurately pointed out that the Union army did not technically use the draft and still managed to defeat the Confederate forces. The remainder of McGilvray's rather lengthy presentation was based on his charges that in the case of the army "labor is artificially underpriced." He went on to quote figures to back up his contention that the draft was "costly, inefficient and inequitable." He also pointed from firsthand experience among students that there is a "lack of clear transferrability of military skills to civilian life." The floor was then thrown open to questions from the speakers themselves and the audience. Bob Garvin first charged that Sen. Stennis, Kremer's source, had never been in the military service along with another member of Stennis' committee, Sen. Eastland. This charge was proven to be correct. Peacock then angrily questioned Kremer about his morality question. "Who's doing the fighting for Eastland?" he asked. Then it was the students' turn. Draft counselor Rick Jahnkow cited the Gates Commission report that it would be a "$ 7. billion dollar increase the first year to change over" to the volunteer system. "The draft law is not equitable, and can't be made equitable," he charged. "The poor and the uneducated are always going to be discriminated against." Jahnkow's cost figure turned out much lower than the current cost figures cited by McGilvray. Other comments were heard, pro and con, from peace freak and ADCOP members alike. Finally, when asked what war was, Kremer answered "war is the absence of peace."
In the third quarter Mark Seymour blocked a punt and Jeff Brown recovered it in the end zone for a Palomar score, and Barrios connected with Rex Holloway for the two point conversion that tied the score.
