Garcia loses battle to renew contract Palomar trustees voted not to renew the contract of Richard Garcia, multicultural department part-time instructor for the 1974-75 school year. The motion not to rehire Garcia was mad e by Milo Shadle and seconded by A.J. Ande rson, who had accused the part-time instructor of advocating communism in his class room. T he 4-to-1 vote was cast after a two hour session behind closed doors February 19. Lucy Bayne, chairman of the trustees, cast the dissenting vote. Theodore Kilman, assistant dean of instruction, had recommended rehiring after evaluating Garcia personally and reviewing the evaluati on of 44 students of Garcia. On the morning following the meeting, Dr. Frederick Huber, college president, said that the trustees followed the advice of Timothy Garfield, deputy county counsel, by not making public why Garcia was not rehired. However, the trustees · agreed to give Garcia a written statement "indicating the reasons for not retaining him for the 1974-75 school year."

A teacher at the National University of Mexico, Bernal has done his principal field work in Coixtlahuaca, Yagul and other sites in the Valley of Oaxaca, and is now working at Dainzu .
