Ashbrook, Moore co-star European culture • • 1n 'Lion Winter' drama illustrated inshow Buddy Ashbrook and Jill Moore will be leading the cast in the Drama Department's production of James Goldman's "Lion in Winter." The play is scheduled to be presented March 16-18 and March 22- 25 in P-33, the drama lab. Ashbrook, drama director, will be playing the role of Henry II, as well as directing the production. "I took this role because it will give me a chance to get on the other end of it. I usually direct," he explained, "so this gives me a chance to be with the students." The scene is set in 12th century England in the castle of Henry II. It is an adult, comical rendition of the feud between Henry of England and Phillip of France. But as the play develops, the entire cast becomes caught up in a bizarre turn of events . As Ashbrook put it, "It's like the modern day 'Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf?' " Set design was created by Norm
Gaskins, technical director. During Christmas vacation Gaskins created a scale model to direct construction of the stage set. "We are using 17th and 18th century theater prac tice in our construction,'' Gaskins said. "But we have made no attempt in creating a realistis castle. We're using more of the soft appeal." "The play is a strong one and has a cast of equally strong characters," Ashbrook commented. "It also has a lot of historical value and gives the cast a chance to do research and wear costumes of that period.'' Other cast members include: Jill Moore, Eleanor; Thad Gree r, Richard the Lionhearted; John Hit on, Geoffrey; Stevve Phelps, John; John Sowell, Phillip , King of France; and Kim Eckert. Alais, Phillip' sister · and He nry's mistress. Jan Bourgoin will be aiding as assis tant director.

'CINDERELLA' AS NEW FORENSICS COACH
Former student returns to teach "A Cinderella story" is Miss Mitti<>s McDonald's description of her two ye&..:s as a student at Palomar in a rece nt interview. When Mitties began college s he wanted to be a tennis champ. Mr. Ray Dahlin's coaching was the magic which changed the aspiring te nnis star into a winning s peec h-maker. According to Miss McDonald before her graduation from Palomar she set her goal to return as a teacher. "I am awe struck that the faculty r e members me as a student and grateful they don't make me live that rol e ," d eclares the new speech coach. She describes the c hange in roles from a student to a teacher as carr ying different r es pons ibilities . " As students' tasks and the methods of perfo rming them were outlined, now guide lines are unlimited." ew teac her notes that she must do her hom ewo rk. "I love it," is her e nthusiastic reply when asked about teaching. Mitties exp lains that she is refining her teac hing methods, but adds that in fifteen years she will still be refining her methods . "I am as nervous as a kitten about giving a r eading at church tonight," Mitties remarked even though just before she had told of her outstanding r e -

The first yea r she placed first in expos itory, second in oral interpr e tation, and third in debate. She walked away from the 1\ationa l Forensic Championships in :vliami the next yea r with a first in ex pos itory and a second in speec h ana lysis . l\'orthwestern University has a reputation for being the best in the nation for speec h majors. Mitties McDonald •s speech activities at Palomar he lped her e nter the college of her c hoice , but s he d id not e nter com pe tition because s he wanted to concentrate on her studies. After spending several winters in the eas t the weather in this area became an added attraction. She declared she won 't miss the fur coats , fur ha ts and_ fur boots this year. A recent thrill was receiving he r sheepskin confirming her Masters Degree in the mail. Now eve r ything seems more official to the new s peec h instructor.

Tax override to finance
new facility Proposal for the construction at Palomar College of an all-purpose memorial bowl, with a seating capacity of 12,000, was made to the governing board in session February 8. Propone nts of the project asked the board to cons id er financing the esti mated $940,000 stru cture by placing on the June primary e lec tion ballot an override tax proposal of 18 ce nts per SlOO valuation, to be in effect for one year, 1972-73, onl y. Discussion of the bowl construction plan was on the board mee ting agenda for information, with no formal action requested at the tim e. However, it was pointed out that a decision woulri have to be mad e within the next two weeks in ord e r to place the proposition on the Ju ne ballot. Milt Lemmerman, presirient of the Comet Quarterback Club. made the detailed proposal to the board, describing the pre liminary work of various supporters of the plan, a nd showeri architectural sketches of how the project would be located in a natural bowl-type setting in a presently undeveloped northeast corner of co llege prope rty. Lemmerman, who str essed that the proposed 18 cents tax "would be for one year, and one year only." sairi "thi s is a grass-roots movement. originating with our c lub, but extending a lso into many segments of the population who are inte r ested in obtaining such a facility for all the North County." He said the all-purpose concept in tentative design of the bowl e nvi s ioned its us e not only for athletic events, hut also for such organizations and events as kennel club shoes, riding c lub ancl horse shows, and c ultural eve nts including concerts and ''under the s tars " dramatic productions . "T he North County has reached a stature that the people have expected," he said, "and there is no facility duplicating this one anywhere in the region.' • He said those who have worked on preliminary studies of the plan feel that such an e lection "has all the earmarks of a winner," and pointed out that a s imp le majority vote would carry the over- rid e tax proposition . Lemmerman said the 18-cent levy for one year would amount to only $9 for the owne r of a home valued at $20,000 and $13. 50 for a S3 0,000 prope rty. He told the board, "This is a tremendously popul ar proposition. Give us t he place on the hallot and we will put it ac ross . All we ask is that you permit us to place this before the people." Coach Mack Wiehe also partic ipated in the prese ntation, and seve ral supporters s poke in its favor from an overflow audience at the session. Wiehe pointed out that the facil ity would a lso he used by San Marcos High Sc hool at hle tic events , and by a poss ible future area high school. In various pro and con discussions of the proposal, the hoard raised questions on "how realistic" the plan was , and how the coll ege needed such other construction as paramedical facilities, laboratories, and a theater- arts complex. Ques tions raised on other aspects of the proposal related to access roads , p a rking, and the gene r a l public climate of opposition to increas ing taxes. One comment on the plan was that supporters "get more r eaction" from the people, including the faculty and students, before a final decis ion is made on whe ther to authorize the e lec tion.

Salinas and Eller placed second and third with a score of 596 and 584. Howard Bowman, who led the LBS team, initially started off the match with sighting problems. His final score was a 608 points, also an All-Ame rican qualifying score. Steve Mason fired a 564 and Earl Cacho a 530. The final heat of the tournament at the 30 yard line saw many an archer wince and moan as his arrows slammed into the target in a staccato of rhythm as knocking points were busted and feathers were bruised. To the winning team this was a sweet sound however. It meant walking away with a 90 point lead at the end of the tournament. For the women's team it was a disappointing day. Terry Gibson who came back after a semester's absence fired a 576 All-American score. Bonnie Bass and Carol Goeppinger both scored 544 points. A total score of 1664 brought them in a second place, a scant 12 points behind the LBS firecracker team. Long Beach's Phyllis Long fired a blazing 610 All-American qualifying s.core to lead her teammates Marilyn Wolfe and Darrylin Partin into the first place slot for the day. Coach Mildred Ayers, beaming with satisfaction at the placing of her team in the first match of the newly sanctioned Southern California Community Intercollegiate Archery Conference, said that Palomar would host another mater next Thursday between · the Comets and Mt. San Antonio.
