"Basically," he said, "is your car polluting.and are you getting low gas mileage?"

Larry Bertram, automotive instructor, says that one bad spark plug in your V-8 engine can cost ten percent less in gas mileage driving at 30 mph.

Along with locating engine problems in autos driven by Palomar students, Bertram, other auto tech instructors and students plan to set up a diagnostic lane similar to that operated by the California Highway Patrol on Wednesday and Thursday, December 4 and 5.

Engine and exhaust analyzers set up on the main entrance road each day will determine the need for engine tune-up, excessive engine emissions and register the amount of hydrocarbons and carbon monoxide your car spews into North County.

Open from 7:15a.m. each day until 4 p.m., the analysis will provide each driver with a registered condition of his or her car engine.

Bertram also states that one bad plug at 40 mph costs the hapless driver as much as 34 percent mileage less and jumps gas consumption tremendously.

"Requiem" is traditionally a mass for the dead. This performance will not include a mass, but will be the music alone.

Falling two days after the anniversary of the assassination of John F. Kennedy 11 years ago , Stanford has expressed the special significance this performance bears. "Requiem" was performed as part of the funeral service for the late President.

"Although this performance ofthe 'Requiem' is not dedicated to the memory of Kennedy, his assassination is still remembered with a poignancy at this time of year. The 'Requiem' is a most profound expression. It presents an opportunity for all who hear to reflect on our place in the cosmos," said Stanford.

The Palomar Chorale has been in existence since the fall of 1966. It is offered as an evening class and is made up of talented people from the community who enjoy singing major oratorio compositions.

At least one major performance is presented each semester. In the past the group has performed such classic compositions as Mendelssohn's "Elijah," Honegger's "King David," .Beethoven's "Mass in C Major," and Poulenc's "Gloria."

This performance of "Requiem" is cosponsored by the Departments of Music and Community Services. Tickets are $2 for general admission and $1 for students, and may be obtained from the Music Department secretary or at the concert.

St. Francis Church is located at 525 W. Vista Way in Vista. Forfurtherinformation phone the Music Department, 7441150, ext. 349.

Two members ofthe Bella Lewitzky Dance Company rehearse move-

Christmas season, with its spirit of giving, is rapidly approaching and the San Marcos Junior Women's Club is counting on local students to help with their second annual Adopt-A-Family drive.

Thirty five needy families are selected by the Richmar School District Nurse to receive baskets of food and small gifts.

Elementary and high school students are contributing canned goods, and the college students are being asked to drop their change into canisters to provide meat certificates for the baskets.

Canisters can be found in the coffee shop, the cafeteria cashier and the library from now until December 9.

"Approximately $300 is needed for the meat certificates," explained Marilyn Cook, amenities chairman, "so if each student could just drop the change from their lunch it would be a big help."

Suzanne Fitspatrick, Americanism chairman, is coordinating the 1974 Adopt-A-Family drive.

Cagers await opener with optimism

By Carl Raedeker Although only four lettermen are returning from last year's 13-18 Comet basketball squad, coach Andy Gilmour feels that his 1974-75 group has more capabilities than any other team in his five seasons at Palomar.

"Potentially," says Gilmour, "this is the best team since I've been here."

Henry Walther, Tim Ness, Bill Beckford and Mark Truncale are coming back from last season's squad, which finished with a 9-Tconference mark, good for fourth place in the nine team Mission Conference.

Walther, who prepped in New York, was the Comets' leading scorer and playmaker last season.

The 6'4" guard averaged 13.2 points per game and handed out 78 assists during 1973-74.

Ness, a starter at the end oflast year, will fill a guard spot in the Comets' three guard offense along with Lewis Montgomery. Montgomery is a freshman from the Marine Corps who has "great leaping ability", according to Gilmour. He should

compliment the tremendous jumping talents of Beckford, a 23-foot-plus long jumper on last spring's track team. ¡ Beckford, who also comes from the Marine Corps, hauled down 273 rebounds last season to lead the Comets in that category. The 6'4" forward, along with Walther, made honorable mention in the conference last year.

Aiding Beckford on the boards will be Chuck Zinky, who came to Palomar after playing for the Naval Academy at Annapolis last season. During his senior campaign at Poway High, Zinky was named Avocado League Player-Of-The-Year.

While Beckford and the 6'8" Zinky will provide the cagers with inside shooting, Walther, Ness and Montgomery each possess fine shooting touches.

Montgomery has cat-like quickness, while Ness and Walther are tall, thus enabling Comet guards to score easily over slower or shorter opponents.

Gilmour expects either Ness or Montgomery to assume the role of "floor general" or "quarterback."

A balanced scoring attack is a feature Gilmour would like to see his team have, but the biggest question mark for the cagers, as Gilmour sees it, is the quality of players behind the starters.

"Truncale, Dean Zinky (Chuck's freshman brother) and Kevin Doyle will have to help us out in order for us to compete," said Gilmour.

And the competition will be tough. .

Ri versicle, which went 16-0 last year, is supposed to have its best team ever. Grossmont, Citrus and Saddleback all figure to give the locals stiff competition in a strong league.

Conference play won't begin until January 4, but the cagers will op_e n the season next Friday against College of the Canyons in the Dome.

Gilmour doesn't think his squad is ready to begin play yet, but he sees some positive signs developing.

"So far this team has a really good attitude. We are improving every week. I hope we'll be ready by the time the season starts," said Gilmour.

Strangely enough', Ness is the only Escondido

player on the squad. Chuck and Dean Zinky, Truncale and freshman guard Terry Phippen are all from Poway. Forward George Golden, played high school ball in Vista.

The remaining half ofthe twelve man squad consists of out-of-state athletes. In addition to Waltlier, Doyle and 6'5" forward Robert Starkman traveled from New York to attend Palomar.

Montgomery hails from Detroit, while Beckford comes from Central America.

A glance at Palomar basketball and football rosters would lead one to believe that Palomar's the junior college "recruiting capital" ofthe state.

However, Gilmour denies that any active recruiting is being done. He explains, for instance, that Walther came here in order to prepare to play for University of Nevada, Las Vegas. Doyle and Starkman somehow found out from Walther that Palomar was a nice place. During this time Gilmour says he didn't either encourage or discourage the athletes.

Comet losing streak Ill six; visit Riverside for finale Riverside's Tigers, hoping for a winning season, host the Palomar footbailers in the season's final tomorrow evening at 8 p.m.

The Bengals' front five averages 229, led by right tackle Mike Arnold at 275.

Their record stands at 4-4-1 overall and 3-3-1 Mission Conference.

The Comet line will have its work cut out for it as it has a starting average of just over 200 pounds per man.

Another standout for the Tigers is freshman kicker Frank Corral. He has a 42.5 punting average for the season with his longest shot a 78 yarder. He also has a 55-yard field goal to his credit.

Coach Mack Wiebe's gridders have dropped the last six games, the most recent being the 37-14 rout at the hands of the Griffins from Grossmont.

This loss dropped the locals to a 2-5 Mission Conference record and a 3-6 overall situation.

The tenth-ranked Griffins grabbed a 23-0 halftime lead and were never threatened.

Don Kramer started the scoring for the

winners when he grabbed a 51-yard pass from quarterback Joe Roth and dashed into the Palomar end zone. Jorge DaSilva's extra point was good and made it 7-0.

Another Roth pass was hauled down

by Dave Oliver, a Griffin running back.

The extra point was missed and the lead moved to 13-0.

Walt Hoye broke loose from the Comet seven later in the first half to run the score to 20-0. The first half scoring ended when DaSilva's 54-yard field goal split the uprights .

Palomar finally got on the scoreboard in the second half, when Bob Stevens caught a three yard pass from quarterback George Dickerman. Randy Johnson's extra point was good and the score was 23-7.

Grossmont scored twice in the second half on 12 and 13 yard pass plays from Roth to Kramer and Oliver, respectively.

The Comets ended the scoring in the final period when Steve Simunec raced 14 yards for their second touchdown.

Randy Johnson ended the rout with his second extra point of the night.

Coed inner-tube water polo ISPORTS SHORTS I MT. Grapplers win initial contest popular among participants FACE

By Dave Reynolds "The two objectives of this class are learning to be a poor loser and learning to cheat when you're losing. But seriously, the only reason for this class is to have fun," said Stanley Crouch, coordinator of the inner-tube water polo class here on campus.

Begun in the spring ofl973, inner-tube water polo has since become one of the most popular courses offered on campus.

Many of the students in the class are repeats, some of whom are taking it for the third time.

Inner-tube water polo, like many other PE classes, is coeducational. Of the 30 students taking the class, there are approximately equal numbers of men and women.

"Most people do not have the high level of water skills to play regular water polo. Playing in inner-tubes offers a pleasant alternative, with very little aquatic skills," said Crouch. He further explained that the only skill that a person must have for this class is being able to tread water.

One of the main activities of the class is scoring. When a girl scores over either Mark Estey or Jim Soemes, her team gets two points. When males score, their team receives one point.

Another activity indulged in is dunking. Legally, a person can only be dunked when the ball is in his or her possession. However, both goalies commonly practice coming out and dunking any opposing girls as often as possible. Other people also specialize in separating a player from his tube in a variety of ways.

Polo ends season After capping their season with a 12-7 wm over Southwestern last Friday, coach Don Hubbard called his teams' effort their best performance of the year.

The Comets finished with a 5-2 mark (11-6 overall), good for third place in the Mission Conference.

Freshman Randy Moss paced the poloists with five goals, leading scorer Bob Maag had three, Tony Nelson added two and Duane Bodwell and Jerry Boosinger each scored one

The most frequent methods of dunking are either with the feet, or occasionally turning the tube upside down.

No one could ever say that inner-tube water polo is nonviolent. Most of the violence is aimed at someone's tube, but occassionally someone gets clobbered. A good example of this is Bob Johnson. He always dunks whenever possible, but never holds anyone under, or injures them in any way.

Anyone interested in this class is invited to come to the pool at 11 a.m. on Mondays and Wednesdays to watch the action.

Harriers to defend small school crown After finishing fourth at the Southern California cross country finals last weekend, Palomar's harriers will attempt to defend their small school crown at 11 a.m. tomorrow at Mt. San Antonio College.

Humberto Barajas, the Comets' number one runner and all-Mission Conference this year, led the Comets, finishing in seventh position. The locals, who scored 102 points, followed Glen~ dale with 34, Hancock 72, and Citrus with 75. Imperial Valley placed fifth, scoring 115 points.

Leading the Comet scorers, Barajas strode around the four mile course in 20:35. He was followed by Chris Harmon, 20th, 21 :19; Steve Ball, 22nd, 21 :23; Randy Fain, 26th, 21:30; Matt Walker, 27th, 21:30 and Todd Gordon, 44th, 22:52.

Mike Morasco, who placed 49th with a 23:19 time, was edged out of a state berth

by Miguel Nolasco, who had a 23:03 time in a special race that was held earlier in the day.

The top five teams from Southern California will meet the top five teams from Northern California in the state competition at Mt. SAC. The Northern California teams are (in order of their performance in the Northern California finals) De Anza, Monterey Peninsula, Skyline, Foothill and Consumnes.

Palomar College will participate with other area schools in a competitive soccer program this spring.

Students with backgrounds in soccer are encouraged to try out for the team by contacting coach Chris Pagakis in the Dome.

The practices, which begin in January, will be scheduled to allow for students who also hold jobs.

SAN ANTONIO TONIGHT

Fullerton was the first victim of the Comet wrestlers as Kim Cline, Mark McAnally, Larry Christman and Warren Nikuls each pinned their opponents last Friday.

Mt. San Antonio College will be the Comets' opponent tonight at 7:30p.m. in the Dome. Last year Mt. SAC was rated sixth in the state and Comet coach John Woods feels that the matmen must wrestle a lot better to win this match.

Mr. Walker, If putting your name on a parking space is what it takes to get you and the rest of our lethargic mass to get the lead out and run for student government, then maybe we can have it arranged.

The real comedy is in the misinformed, putting down an organization they won't understand and obviously incapable of handling.

Jerry Jones represents you the students and if you don't like the way you're being represented, then do it yourself, or at least make an effort.

I hope, Mr. Walker, that we will see your name on the ballot next election, and hopefully a parking space.

Remember, you could be our sole representative capable of pleasing one and all.

By the way, the school decided that the parking spaces should be painted and Jerry Jones accepted, as you would have.
