ASG president Robert Garvin is now a candidate for the Democratic nomination on the June primary ballot for the Eightieth Assembly District seat now held by Assemblyman John Stull. In talking with Garvin, he gave the following reasons for the attempt at Stull's position: "The vested interests have held seat in California for too long. It is time that the reins of influence be taken from the giant corporation conglomerates, i.e. AT&T, the oil and insurance companies, the utilities and places back in the hands of the people. "While the personal income tax rates have risen steadily, the corporation taxes have declined; this is because of the business pawns in Sacramento. There is an old saying that 'money corrupts• and maybe this has come to be true. If you are not independently wealthy or have strong business contributors, you don't stand a chance of being elected and those that do have such contributors are beholden to them once they are in Sacramento. "The time has come to give the aboutface order and restore government 'of the people, by the people and for the people' to our state.'' Some of the other issues to which Garvin said he would address himself duing the campaign are property tax and education: "While our property taxes continue to soar, the money available for the schools in our area scarcely increases. The state budget has been continually cut in the education area since Reagan took over. At the same time we are continuing to build freeways when we are already overburdened with eight-lane monsters.. " Garvin will also stress welfare reform ("Let's put those ab le-bod ied men-workers to work on litter and pollution jobs."), protection of our tuna fleets in internation waters, increased and more easily available quality health care for any a nd all who need it ("The idea that in this land of plenty many of us simply can not afford quality care and, therefore, do not dare to get sick or have an accident is absurd.''). He hopes that provision will be made fo r equal and adequate housing for all citizens, and would like to see passage of the Clean Environment Proposition which he feels would ''put teeth in our anti-pollution laws and force the administration to uniformly enforce them.'' Garvin is an ex-M arine, 22, and a fourth semester political science major. Any student wishing to join the campaign should stop by R-3 and leave a message, contact Bob on campus, or give him a call at home, 726-3265.

Benefit concert opens theater English instructor Dick Peacock's dream is another step closer to reality-the completion of his La Paloma com plex in Encinitas. Peacock began work on rem ode ling the old landmark in July, and just before Christmas, the coffee-house, bookstore and art shop were opened . That left the theater itself and the indoor-outdoor restaurant. The theater itself, the major portion of the giant building, will finally open its curtains to the public on March 18. In order to start off in a big way, Peacock has ordered the Jimi Hendrix film "Rainbow Bridge." This will be shown as an exclusive San Diego engagement. "Rainbow Bridge," a 'cosmic" movie, was Hendrix's only movie. The film was done in Hawaii. "We'll be starting differently than our programs will eventually run," said Peacock. "'Rainbow Bridge' will be shown for two full weeks. The rest of our movies will be shown Mondays through Thursdays with concerts Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays. "Some of the regular movies we'll be showing are 'The Boyfriend,' John and Yoko's 'Leo the Last,' and 'Adam at 6 a.m.' "This theater is one of the few ever designed with the people's comfort in mind. It's one of the finest in Southern California," says P eacock on his venture. The normal admission prices for movies will be $1 for students and $1.50 for all others, though the special fee for "Ra inbow Bridge" will be $2 for everyone. In the opening week, La Paloma will deviate from the norm in another way. On Sunday a Woody Guthrie Benefit Concert will be held. Group>;, s 11ch as the Smith Family, will be donating their talents, and all proceeds will go towards the study of the disease that killed Guthrie. There will be both an afternoon and evening show.

~Lion

in Winter' continues tonight "The Lion In Winter," the Drama Department's current production, will continue its run tonight and tomorrow at 8 p.m. in P-33. The play will again be presented March 22-25. Play director Buddy Ashbrook leads the cast as Henr y II, with Jill Moore sharing the spotlight as his wife Eleanor. Also seen are Kim Eckert as Alais, Henry's mistress; Thad Geer as Richard the Lionhearted; John Higdon as Geoffrey; Steve Phelps as John; and John Sowell as Phillip, King of France. The play, an historical account of 12th century England, is a fast moving, adult comedy. Its presentation is an effort to familiarize the audience with period history, but also to present it in context with modern day thinking. The thoughts a nd customs have been altered so as to make it relevant to today's audiences. Admission to the play is $.50 cents for students and $1 for non-students.

Interracial movie to be shown here When a neurotic white girl picks up a young Negro man in a subway in New York, you have the film plot for a study in black-and-white. Am id st fury, racial bitterness, and sexual tension, the black man becomes bemused, baffled, hurt a nd enraged. He then resorts to his most effective weapon, a tongue-lashing, to tell off the woman and all whites. The viewer is definitely drawn to his side. Written by LeRoi Jones and based on his own play, "Dutchman" is indeed in black and white and has a cast of two. "Dutchman" will be shown on March 22 at 7 p.m . in room P-32 and again on Thursday afternoon.

News Briefs Today is the last day for students to register for the second nine week period of English modules. All students who did not sign up for "mods" in their classrooms, or who wish to change instructors or times, should be in P-32 at 11 today.
