At the recommendation of ASG president Jerry Jones and Chairman Jim Truman, the Project Palomar committee voted to cancel the selling of tickets for a Jaguar automobile that was to have been given as a door prize at the much-publicized Fall Fling. "Anyone who purchased a ticket for the Jaguar will be able to reclaim his money anytime before January 4 in the Dean of Student Activities office," Jones said. Persons may also have their money refunded by phoning or writing in, or receiving a refund on the night of the Fall Fling at the door. The reason behind canceling the lottery was the very poor response to

the campaign to sell tickets. Had the ASG continued with the ticket sales as planned, an estimated $8000 loss would have resulted. Jones and Truman blamed the poor response of ticket sales primarily on the state of the national economy. "People just don't have money to give away these days. They just weren't ready to part with $2. Even the Boy Scouts who were selling tickets for us in the community were generally unsuccessful, and that is something almost unheard of," said Jones. Truman expressed the belief that had the lottery been held a year earlier it probably would have been a success. "But this is a bad year. Charity drives are going to hurt all over," he said. Other reasons given for the failure of the drive was a lack of support from areas that had been counted on to provide manpower. "It just didn't catch on with the organizations on campus. Out of an estimated 20 such groups , only five joined in," the ASG president said. This lack of support apparently cut deeply into the expected "army of volunteers." The Project Palomar committe is going to operate on a smaller, more modest budget in the future, it was indicated, operating money-making ventures that are less risky and more sure of gaining cash returns. The Fall Fling will continue as scheduled, the onlv change being no door prize. In addition, the committee is busy scheduling dances and concerts in the future, most of which will not cost, since the ASG will be offering space to musical groups in return for a cut of the gate receipts. Jones and Truman, in particular, had much praise for those who worked on the ticket drive. "In all fairness to those who did work, they worked hard. Nobody dragged their feet. Enthusiasm was not lacking, only manpower," Jones said.

Financial aid increase reaches more students Overall Financial Aids monies have increased 435% in the last five years, it was reported at a recent meeting of the Western Association of Student Financial Aids Administrators, and funds are still growing. This is due mainly to wise spending in the past. Now. not only are lower class students being aided. but also middle and almost upper middle class students. Improvements in the system of Financial Aids are also seen for the future. For instance, a task force of Financial Aids administrators are presently working to condense all application forms into one with various supplements. How does all this affect students at PJC? As Financial Aids Officer J. Frank Hankin put it, "There is a growing trend toward more money. More needy students can now be helped." Presently, there are still many forms of aid available. Where it was originally thought that there would be no money left in reserve, there will probably be enough to aide 20 to 30 additional people next semester. This is because of students who were earlier given monies and who later qualified for Basic Educational Opportunity Grants (BEOG). Therefore, the money they had received is bein_g returped to the Office for redistribution under Hankin's direction. BEOG Programs are still available. Students who did not attend an institution of secondary education before April, 1974 can be eligible for basic grants of amounts from $112 up to $1050.
Second year students representative of so-called minority groups on campus who have attained a 3.0 or better grade point average should see Hankin ifthey are interested in possible scholarships. The California Entrance Examination Board will pay 40o/oof all expenses at a four-year institution to winners of these scholarships. Three Palomar students, Bob Wilson, Larry Turner, and Bill Woods, won the award last year. The Ohio University Achievement Award is now available for students transferring from two-year accredited institutions who have an AAdegree. It is a two-year renewable award, and is available immediately upon entry to Ohio University. This scholarship is granted on the basis of very high academic achievement, not need. To qualify, the applicant must graduate with an AA degree prior to entry at Ohio University and have earned at least a 3.3 grade point average. The applicant will also be considered by extra curricular activities in high school and college, ACT and / or SAT scores, and rank in high school graduating class. The value of the award is $600, which is half of the registration surcharge fee. It is granted only on recommendations. Awards will be made on or before June 1, which is also the deadline for receipt of nominees. The student must have submitted an application for admission to Ohio University before the award is granted.
WALTHER LEADS BALANCED ATTACK
Cagers capture initial vidory By Carl Raedeker Sophomore Henry Walther pumped in 22 points last Tuesday to lead the Comet basketball squad to an 83-79 victory over Phoenix College. After losing their first two contests, tests, the locals displayed a balanced scoring attack in the see-saw affair. Every Comet starter hit in double
figures . Backing Walther were Bill Beckford and Tim Ness with 15 points apiece. Freshman guard Lewis Montgomery added 13, while 6-7 center Chuck Zinky threw in 10. The lead changed hands numerous times during the first half until Palomar grabbed a 38-36 halftime lead and held onto it thereafter. In the second half the Comets gradually enlarged the point spread, although
the locals scored erraticall_y throughout the half. Nevertheless, the Comets shot 51 percent from the field in the second half and answered every Phoenix scoring burst with one of their own. The slick medium range shots of 6-5 center Floyd Hicks, who finished with 25 points, and some cool outside shooting by guard Gary Gilliland (16 points), prevented a Comet rout. With 3:00 remaining, Walther completed a three point play to give the locals a seemingly safe 12 point advantage. But the Bears rallied off eight unanswered tallies before the final horn.

"Our shot selection was much better than the last few games," noted Coach Andy Gilmour. "We hit the offensive boards real well against the best shooting team we've faced so far ." Gilmour was also pleased with the balanced scoring attack and the play of freshmen Kevin Doyle and Dean Zinky coming off the bench.
Wrestlers dominate tourney Imperial Valley and MiraCosta colleges were the victims of the Comet wrestlers at the Palomar Takedown Tournament Wednesday.Overall, the Comets won 23, lost four and tied two matches. Tomorrow the Comets travel to Southwestern to compete in the Southwestern tournament. Favorites in the 27 school competition are Bakersfield, El Camino and Phoenix, with Palomar rated well within the top ten. On Tuesday, the Comets will try to break Cypress' 55 dual meet win streak when they face Cypress and Cuesta at Cypress. The Comets, undefeated in wrestling competition after five matches, are hopeful of a double win. Santa Ana and Cerritos were last week's victims of the undefeated Comet wresting team as the locals won 32-8 and 31-3 respectively.
Male archers capture second in competition Wendy McLean and Pat Palmer captured fourth place in the women's and men's individual events at the Southern California Archery Championships November 22 in Bakersfield. McLean shot a 1006 which put her 46 behind first place Debbie .Green of Riverside who is the Southwest States champion. Palmer shot a 1072, 33 points behind Don Rabska of San Bernardino. The Comet men's team scored 3202 for second place in the tournament, bested only San Bernardino which is traditionally the strongest team in the conference. Third place was captured by the Palomar women's team, who shot 2955, Ri versicle College won the women's team event with a score of 3113. Seventeen colleges participated in the tournament. The Comets travel to Downey January 10 for the Southern California Indoor Invitational.
To the Editor: As a student and a member of the ASG Executive Council, I would like to comment on Mr. Matthew S. Walker's letter in the November 15th The Telescope. The present ASG officers were elected by less than 900 votes by the student body. Even though plenty of publicity was a vail able through posters, assemblies, and newspaper coverage, less than eight percent of the students were interested in their own student government. In checking the voting records for the last three elections; student assembly election, assembly runoff, and homecoming queen, our friend Mr. Walker failed to vote at all. It seems as if Mr. Walker is talking out of both sides of his mouth! As for the ASG parking places, I did not see Mr. Walker express an interest in running for a positon o'f the student government. I can't really believe the persons who did make the effort to run, did it because of having six parking spots designated for the 20 some members of the student government. It is my bet that Mr. Walker has most likely parked in these spots anyway.lwonder if Mr. Walker has ever taken an interest in the school he's attending and put in more than the amount of time required by academic studies to make this college a better place for the students attending? I believe Mr. Walker best be thought of being one of those 90 percent of the student body that is disinterested, apathetic, and uninformed of the activities of the ASG. Had Mr. Walker stopped by the ASG
Paving the way for the Comets against Santa Ana were: Terry Drew in 118 pound division; Pete Samhammer (150); and Warren Nikuls (190), who won their matches by pins. Nikuls pinned his man to the mat in 50 seconds.
In addition, the Comets cut down on their turnover totals (23) from the first two games, shot over 40 percent from the .field for the first time (43.5 percent} and played better as a "team." A look at scoring statistics through the first three games shows that the Comets are a "team," rather than a group of individuals.
Winning by decisions were Danny Field (134), Don Barrios (158), Mike Karges (167), and Wayne Nickerson (heavyweight). Kim Cline drew his match, 15-15.
Walther, who sat out the second contest, a 97-66loss to East Los Angeles, due to strained knee ligaments, is scoring at a 14.5 per game rate. Chuck Zinky is averaging 12.6, Montgomery 12.3, Ness 12.0 and Beckford 10.3. Last Saturday in East Los Angeles, the Comets committed 38 turnovers and made 34 percent of their field goal attempts. Montgomery banged home 15 points, Chuck Zinky 12 and Dean Zinky 10.
Against Cerritos, Nikuls led the Comets, scoring the only pin of the match, and raising his string of pins to five . straight. Winning their matches by decisions were: Drew (118), Cline (126), Phil Reddish (142), Samhammer (150), Barrios (158), Karges (165) , Steve Pell (175) and Nickerson (Hwt.).

Goals by Kathy Rimelspach and Melissa Smith enabled the Palomar's women's field hockey team to finish the season's league play with a 2-0 victory over Mesa last Tuesday. Gail Byers was credited with two assists and the the tight defensive unit again held the opposition scoreless. Palomar's league record is now 8-2.

Perhaps I should state that both Jerry Jones, ASG President, and myself were oppsed to the idea of the parking places and casf a no vote on the resolution. It is all recorded in the Executive Council's minutes and a matter of public record. I invite any student to stop by the ASG office and see what is happening in your student government.

Last night the Comets traveled to Antelope Valley to compete in the three day Antelope Valley tournament.
Footballers close out season with win Randy Johnson of Palomar and Frank Corral of Riverside held an unofficial kicking contest in Riverside Saturday evening. Johnson came out the winner as the Comets ended their six-game losing streak with a 21-7 victory in the season's final game. The victory allowed the Comets to finish the year with a 3-5 Mission Conference mark and a 4-6 overall record. The game seemed to be the battle of the placekickers from the second period on. In this quarter Riverside drew first blood when quarterback David Cadina threw a 42-yarder to Calvin Sweeny for a touchdown. Corral added the extra point to end the Riverside scoring for the evening. Earl Vaughn, Comet running back, set up the first of two Johnson kicking exhibitions when he gained 26 yards. Johnson sent the football sailing 42 yards through the uprights and the score was 7-3. After stopping the Riverside offense, quarterback George Dickerman flipped a 22-yard pass to Bob Stevens. However, the Comets could not get further than the Bengals' 35 and coach Mack Wiebe again sent Johnson in. The ball was marked at the Tigers' 43 and Johnson set a Palomar record as he put the Comets within one point with a 53-yard field
goal. It bettered his own previous record of 49 yards. - The second half was all Palomar. On its second possession and after a fake field goal attempt by the Tigers, quarterback Dickerman directed a 61-yard drive highlighted by a 16-yard pass to Dave Xeesl!ng. He ran tne remaining 12 yards into the end zone. Mack Wiebe's club then put on a little razzle-dazzle and faked an extra point kick. Holder Kim Redding passed to tight end Tom Malley for a two-point conversion and the Comets led 14-7 with 3:03 left in the third quarter. The Tigers bounced right back and drove to the Comet three-yard line. With a fourth-and-goal situation the Comet defense held as they stopped Tiger running back Pat Pugh at the line of scrimmage. The locals took over at that point with 10:30 remaining. Dickerman engineered a 23-play, 97-yard drive, scoring with only 22 seconds left in the game. Steve Simunec ended a brilliant career at Pawmar, after he sat out the 1973 season due to an injury. He carried the ball 33 times for 134 yards and a 4.06 average. Vaughn, a freshman transfer from New Jersey, carried 23 times for 126 yards and a 5.48 average. Dickerman, Comet Quarterback, was
four for four passing in the second half, good for a total of 116 yards. During the season Dickerman amassed 1087 passing yards by completing nearly 50 percent of his attempts for ten touchdowns. Stevens was on the other end of 31 of those tosses to lead the locals in pass receiving. Running backs Vaughn and Simunec churned out 1614 of the 1707 yards gained by Palomar runners. Vaughn totaled 814 yards for a 5.6 average, while Simunec added 800 for a 4.7 average. Simunec also caught 18 passes.
