Audio lab: step toward radio station By Ron Kenney Jr. "Our enrollment has nearly doubled after every semester , " explained Dana Hawkes, Telecommunications instructor. Hawkes is describing the expanding program in Radio and Telecommunications. "Our newest addition this year is the Audio Production Lab in P-33. It features broadcast quality audio production equipment. This is the first step toward a campus radio station." Hawkes' goal is to purchase a transmitter and develop an operational station on campus. Ray Dahlin , Speech and Theater Arts Department Chairman, expressed appreciation to Dean Howard Brubeck for securing the funds to purchase the audio production equipment. Palomar's Telecommunications program is unique in that it is two-fold. Courses taught by Hawkes in the Speech
and Theater Arts Department allow students to transfer to a four year institution with a major in Radio and TV. Students are also able to take courses in the ROP program taught by Robert Blanks. ROP provides training in maintenance and technical operation of television equipment. Currently , Telecommunications and ROP classes are working with Escondido Cablevision in producing a weekly one hour TV show, "All About North County." These shows are produced entirely on campus using ROP equipment, courtesy of Dean Walter F. Brown , director of the ROP program . Palomar students work as technical crews, producers and directors for the shows . "This show is important because it gives our students actual broadcast training," added Hawkes . "All About North County" includes
45 minutes of interviews with North County leaders and 15 minutes concerning the Palomar campus and how it meets the needs of the community. Escondido Cable 2 airs the program on Thursday and Friday from 7-8 p.m. Oceanside Cable 3 airs the program on Wednesday from 6-7 p.m. Telecommunications courses are also a part of the Communications Media area. This is a recently developed interdepartmental program leading to a vocational certificate incorporating studies in several communicationsrelated departments. Due to the increasing enrollment, the Telecommunications classes will hold a pre-enrollment this Monday from 1-3 p.m. in F-23. Stud ents who are planning to take Radio and TV classes in the fall are urged to pre-enroll.

RUSSIAN CLASS DRAWS TWO
Small class; big interest By Diane Slezak With a cheery "doo-braye -oo-tra, " the instructor greets his two stud ents and the day's lesson begins. The class, with its ide al r atio of two students to one te ache r, is not in some rich private school in some faraway land; on the contrary. It meets here on campus daily at 11 a.m. in room F-12 . The course? Russian 3, taught by Jay Johnson and attended by Palomar students Craig Krum and Esther Watkins. Johnson, who also teaches French, explained his low number of s tude nts by the fact that "most stud ents from this area learn the traditional languages--French, Spanish and Ge rman. Russian is a more unusual language ." None of the three s eem to mind that the course is not one of the more popular ones on campus. "I like the twoto-one ratio ," explained Krum. "We really get highly-individualized instruction that way." Johnson fe els the ratio is "wonde rful , especially in a language course. Students really have a chance to practice the language by speaking it more." Conversation is one of the areas Johnson emphasizes. Three days out of the week are spent in discussing various topics entirely in Russian. "It's a complicated language ," Krum related, "because all the words have different endings for different cases and there are exceptions all over the place." "Sometimes I get so frustrated when I'm speaking," agreed Watkins, "because
I want to make sure I'm using all the right endings (to the words). But Mr. Johnson is a great teacher--he really simplifies things." Johnson finds that the type of s tudents who e nroll in Russian are "highlymotivated and willing to work. They are students who take Russian because they are intere sted in the language itself-not bec ause they want to fill a language r e quirement." Watkins hopes to use her l anguage knowledge as an interpreter for an import-export company or as a tour guid e. In addition to Russian, she speaks German, French and Japane se, the latte r as a result of having lived on Okinawa for some time. "French is really a beautiful language," she said, "but Russian must be one of the most unromantic language s there is. Even 'I love you' in Russian sounds terrible ." Krum , a 1973 graduate of Vista High School, started his fore ign language experience with German. When he found he enjoyed it, he added French and Russian while in high school. He also plans to do some sort of interpreting work followin g his studies in college. Johnson doesn't receive any salary for the Russian courses he te aches , due to the low enroll ment. "I e njoy teaching, and I'm happy to offer the course to these interested stud ents." He paused, then grinned. •one thing's for sure-l'd much rather spend my free time teaching students like Esther and Craig than pulling weeds at home!"
Chimes lack charm By Diane Marland Silence is often the most vital element necessary for concentration. But where today on the Palomar campus can anyone, student or instructor , find a little peace and quiet? Not only are we entertained by rock groups during noontime class lectures , courtesy of the Associated Student Government and Music Department, but we are now subjected to tunes from a carillon instrument, installed under the guidance of the beautification committee of the Patrons of Palomar. Wouldn't a better idea of campus beautification be an expansion of the upper campus gardens where faculty and students can study, read or just enjoy a little silence? Now we have happy Patrons and happy rock enthusiasts. Has anyune stopped to consider the student
or instructor in a classroom during the noon hour? With the open classroom structure on the Palomar campus, instructors must close doors and windows in ord er to be heard during class sessions. Warmer weather and a lack of oxygen make concentration that much more difficult. One solution to the problem might be to change the hour of the carillon music to 7:50 a.m., before classes begin. That way fewer people would be disturbed. As far as the rock bands are concerned, a simple lowering of the volume would help the present situation become a little more bearable. Music and chiming bells add a definite atmosphere to our campus, but so far , they haven't helped make a boring lecture any more interesting.
Orators garner awards Led by Marianne Heid, the college Forensics team closed out the 1973-74 speaking season with a strong showing at the California State Los Angeles University Spring Championships.

Wickliffe advances to state golf finals Steve Wickliffe, one of two Comet golfers participating in the southern sectionals Monday, fired a 75-76-151 to become the fifth of six qualifiers for the state championships to be held Monday at Oroville. Joining Wickliffe in the qualifying attempt was Jim Kronus, who withdrew after 17 of the 36 holes as a result of an injury. Medalist for the southern playoffs was Bob Alderete of Rio Hondo, who shot a 71-72-143. El Camino topped the list of five teams qualifying for the state meet. With a score of 905, El Camino led Santa Monica (921) , Santa Ana (922), Moorpark (929), and Long Beach (946), after winning a . playoff with Ventura. The Comets were not involved in the team scoring. Coach Mack Wiebe and Wickliffe will fly up north early, so that Wickliffe can get in a few practice rounds before play begins at Bidwell and Table Top Country Clubs. Ten teams, five from the north and five from the south will compete in the team competition, while twelve golfers will take part in the individual competition, six from both ends of the state . The top ten competitors will be awarded trophies and various mo-

San Diego City tops Comet nine for title In five m~et~ngs this season the Palomar Comets did not beat San Diego City once. The latest and most crucial loss came on Thursday in the game which decided the conference champion. City opened the game by scoring a run in the top of the first on a sin~le by Steve Watson, ·a stolen base and a double by the Mission Conference player of the year, Chick Valley. Valley, in addition to being a fine hitter, is also an excellant pitcher. But he didn't look that good in the Comet's half of the first. First baseman Randy Robinson drilled a two-run homer into deep right-center to give Palomar a one run lead. But it wasn't enough. City scored two more runs in the third and finished the scoring in the eighth with another run. Coach Jim Clayton's squad finjshed the season with an overall record of 25-13 and a conference record of 17-7.

structors, feel like something we're doing is right on." The big competition of the year, the 11 western states competition, is upcoming and Young is hoping the dep artment will do as well as they did last year--winning first place in every college division except in color. At that time, the college did not offer a color course, but the department has expanded to include color this year. Pattie Briscoe, a Palomar student last summer, received a third place award in last year's Del Mar fair for a three dimensional photo construction she created. Robert Heer, also a photo student then, and now working in a photography studio in Los Angeles , also received an award in that competition.
