Parking program begins April19 Starting Monday, April19, a new parking program will go into effect on the campus, according to Ted Young, traffic control coordinator. The major difference will be changing the peripheral road that circles the campus to a one-way road. The entrance will be at the east end of the school, near the athletic fields. This is the Escondido side of the campus. The Sheriff's Department will be directing traffic on Mission Road. "The primary goai is to get some organization in the parking program," Young said. "We're hoping that students and everyone will comply with the rules of where they can and cannot park. We're seeking cooperation and not exercising authority." Easter vacation will be utilized for the physical changes necessary to implemen t the new plan. "The main concept behind this plan is easier ingress and egress to the campus. It behooves all of us to cooperate in this endeavor," stated Young. Campus patrol officers will be on

Students offering plans for more classes, units Possible units for Associated Student Government officials, a Judo Club constitution and approving a new judicial advocate and treasurer were discussed at the student legislature meeting Monday. Next year, students involved in the ASG may receive units for their participation. The proposed plan calls for four eight-week modules covering such topics as parliamentary procedures and will be included in the Speech Department. This proposal still has to be approved by the Curriculum Committee.
can be investigated. The nominations of Don Anderson for judicial advocate and Erin Thien for ASG treasurer by ASG president Mark Good were unanimously approved by the student legislature.
"This class would be open to all students who are involved in the ASG, whether 'on the student legislature or serving on one of the committees," stated Don Gier, student legislator.
Biorhythm and biofeedback nave attracted a high level of public interest. Because of this attention, the student nurses at Palomar College have scheduled a one-day workshop on biofeedback and biorhythm, Saturday, April24. The workshop, sponsored by the Student Nurses Association at the college, will be held in room P-32, with registration beginning at 8 a .m.

duty Monday morning to assist drivers in following the new parking and traffic regulations. Eventually these officers will issue citations and see that parking in marked areas is enforced. These citations will hold in court. Certain parking areas will be designated for staff and faculty members only. The names on the spaces will no longer make any difference. "As in all new procedures there will be an adjustment period for all of us, but it is anticipated that all persons concerned will cooperate in making this a success," Young said. The parking plan was designed by a committee of governing board members, faculty and students. The entire program has taken over a year and a half to complete. All decisions were passed through the Safety and Security Committee. "The campus parking plan is a result of the committee decision making process. There has been input from all segments of the college population from the governing board to the student body," commented Young.

Register today Gerald Ford and Jimmy Carter would not be the top presidential candidates today if no one had registered to vote. We feel it is vital for every citizen over the age of 18 to register to vote. Since the beginning of time, people have complained about their leaders. Rarely, if ever, have chronic complainers done anything to improve their political environments. In this post-Watergate age, voter apathy has reached epidemic proportions, and cynicism has set in. People don't seem to care who gets elected. Many don't bother to vote at all. And this is not good. State, federal , or local laws can legally be changed only through the actions of registered voters. Voters, and voters alone, have the power to elect an official, and should remove him from office if he does not live up to his promises. The California state constitution requires that all voters must have been living in California for 30 days before an election (30 days within the boundaries of their cities or counties), be 18 years old by the date of an election, and be a citizen of the United States. People who need to register to vote are: new immigrants to San Diego County, anyone who has not yet voted and meets the state requirements, and anyone who failed to vote in the last general election. If you voted in the last election, your name is automatically put on the list of registered voters. Anyone interested in registering should see Dr. Pat Archer, Dr. Beauford Chambliss, the local city hall, or the Escondido public library. This election year is important; many vital issues are being decided (nuclear safeguards, Senate Bill One, etc.). And if you fail to register, your voice will not be heard.

Nome anxiety wanders
through thick and Thien Speaking of names - It has been reported that Sarah was the most popular name given to new-born girls in England last year. Taking notice of that fact, I wonder what was the most widely used name 18 years ago. Undoubtedly, there are a number of names that would contend for that distinction. Could it have been Mary, Linda, Cathy, Karen, Patricia or Susan? I don't know, but personal experience tells me that Erin wouldn't be on the list. Of course, it is not important what your name is, but rather what type of person you are. However, I can't help but feel that the Dicks and Janes of the world miss something as they go through life. You see, most people don't have any trouble saying the name of baseball great Hank Aaron. Yet when faced with the challenge of pronouncing "E-R-I-N," there is no guarantee that those same people will do it correctly. I might say, though, that when people learn to say my name right, it has more meaning because that represents a step they have taken to know me better. If people themselves have trouble with uncommon names, imagine what computers might do. When Mary Jones receives some computer mail, it is almost certain the mail will be addressed "Ms. Mary Jones." On the other hand, I have stopped counting the times I have gotten mail which is
addressed "Mr. Erin Thien." Still, what is sometimes bad can also be good. Once the computer sent me my high school report card. At the same time, it game me a "B+" in boys' physical education. And that was better than I ever did in girls' PE during high school. More on names -King Hill, former pro quarterback, noted an interesting story concerning names in the book Football Wit and Humor. It seems a college coach had suffered a poor season and, as a result, got much heckling from the hometown newspaper. The next season, the coach discovered an unskilled quarterback named Brunovlede Zsychowerski. "I may put him in the starting line-up," said the coach, "just to get even with those
newspaper guys." Even more on names -Two names have received much attention the past couple weeks on campus as part of the Associated Student Government election which concludes today. Those names belong to the two presidential hopefuls , Mark Good and G. "Sweed" Swanson. Mter the election, one will fall into the limelight even more as he becomes the number one voice of the students. Whatever the outcome, both candidates deserve congratulations on the way in which their campaigns were conducted. Because they examined the issues and presented their ideas in a positive way, there is no doubt that the ASG as a whole will benefit.
To the Editor: It is clear you have no religious affiliations. The teaching of gospel principles and telling people of a savior who was born for everyone, Jesus Christ, is our purpose. Our purpose is to teach. We believe in the importance of every soul and that the soul comprises the spirit (inner-self of a person) and the physical body. Heavenly Father and a separate personage, Jesus Christ, love us and they created a world for us to dwell on. We were given our free
agency to choose heaven, following his commandments, or hell, following the lust of the world. To truly make a wellrounded individual you must teach his spirit and train his physical body. A person is a receptacle of knowledge and if you liken this to a boat, a boat can float with just a bottom half but you have a useless top half. We wish to teach people of their worth as children of God. The picture on the front page of The Telescope is very nice. Peace. Gary T. Murphy

Maureen Shumate has been elected managing editor of this year's Focus magazine. "We're trying to create a fresh new look for Focus this spring - one with a lot of visual impact," Shumate said. Part of the ''new look" will be more vital, dramatic layouts that use more white space; the use of a typeface of a more modern, bolder style; and having two columns on a page, instead of three. This issue will have about 48 pages, which also makes it larger than in the past. Campus issues will also be covered in Focus. Some of the topics will be literacy skills, woman's reentry and the energy issue. Two more articles, one on the founding of
Palomar College and the other on what the Palomar area was like in 1776, will give recognition to the nation's bicentennial year. Three more people who will help head the staff will be Bob Ross, editor; and Dave Jensen and Edward Profancik, art editors. "I'm really excited about it (the magazine)," Shumate said smiling, "We have many creative, imaginative people on the staff. This year's Focus should be one of the best." The magazine will be out in the first week of May.

Records policy outlined by federal law
Room For Rent
By Lisa Weiss Suddenly the business of preparing and keeping student records has become a subject of major interest and concern. For a good many years, the management of student records has been reasonably perfunctory. Aside from basic academic and health records , the type of information placed in a student's cumulative record in many school districts has been left to the discretion of local school boards. But the other "types of information" in the extent of records maintained by school districts are of great extremes. Because of these extremes, student records have become the center of controversy leading to restrictive laws. The first was the enactment of a federal law called, the Family Educational Rights Privacy Act of 1974 (FERPA). The basic guidelines of FERPA
are: 1) every student has the right to his own records; 2) parents have the right to a student record, if the student is under 18 years of age; 3) a parent or guardian, who provides over 50 percent of the student's support, is entitled to the student's record (even if the student is over 18); 4) the personnel on staff in a school with a legitimate educational interest has the right to a student's records (for example, the financial aid department); 5) parents and students may challenge the content of a student's records, seek corrections and deletions, and add their comments; and 6) there is a penalty for violations of the FERPA, which is the witholding of federal funds from the public or private education agency or institution involved. All records are included in this law. There are three last factors concerning a student's record: 1) a student
Writers:
is able to know exactly who looked at his records because the school keeps a log of everyone who looks at a record and the date they looked at it; 2) a student can release his records to a private person by writing a letter of permission; and 3) anyone who has the right to look at a record, also has access to a written copy of the record. If anyone wants additional information about the rights to students' records, he or she should contact Palomar's Registrar, Herman Lee.

RCC shuts out Comets Palomar College's baseball team suffered its fifth straight loss as it was defeated by Riverside, 4-0, Tuesday on Myers Field. Palomar will travel to Chula Vista tomorrow to challenge Southwestern in a 1 p.m. game. Palomar fell behind, 2-0, in the first inning as the Tigers scored on
Archery team places second in state meet Palomar College's archery team qualified for this year's United States Nationals by placing second in all three divisions at the California State championships, last weekend at Cerritos College. The Comets will be represented in the mens', womens' and mixed fields at the national competition, which is slated May 13-15 at Cocoa Beach, Florida. Leading the Palomar effort last \','eekend was Scott Page, who placed first in the mens' division with 1582 points, Dick Nelson finished fourth for the Comets with 1554 points while Mike Fogerty had 1501 points. O>mbining for 4637 points the Palomar men were just four points off the-winning total of 4641 set by California State University at Los Angeles. San Bernadino Valley College was third with 4510 points. Cal State, Los Angeles tallied 4378 points to also capture the womens' team title. Palomar closed in the second spot with 4196 points and San Bernardino came in third with 4152 points. Mary Wilkins had the top Comet score, posting a 1471 mark for sixth place. Also shooting were Debbie McCann, who placed tenth with 1438 points, and Nancy Jordan, who scored 1287 points.
Palomar swim coach Don Hubbard feels his team has an outside shot at the Mission Conference Meet title when competition begins today in Wallace Pool. "It looks like Saddleback is the favorite," Hubbard said after attending the seedings meetings. "They've got the best times in all three relays plus some top individuals. Hopefully, we'll put pressure on them and force some mistake, not the other way around. "We're favored to place second. Riverside and Southwestern will have to swim well to beat us," Hubbard concluded. Hubbard feels he has potential conference champions in Glenn McCloskey, Brent Krantz, Mark Mowrey and Dave Delano. "I'd have to say Glenn has an outside shot at the three meter diving crown," Hubbard said. "Tom Geriad of Saddleback beat him earlier this season but it depends on how Glenn does that day." Krantz, the Comets top swimmer has a chance to finish first in three events. "Brent's favored to win the 200 individual medley and the 200 butterfly and has a shot at the 100 fly," Hubbard said. Mowrey, Palomar's ace distance swimmer, is entered in three events. "Coach has got me in the 1650 free, the 500 free and the 200 free," Mowrey said. "I was seeded first in
two hits, two walks and a Comet error. Riverside expanded its lead to 4-0 in the fourth as it scored on a single, a hit batsman and another error. The Tiger's pitcher Bob Gorman kept Palomar under wraps the entire game as he held the host team to Roy Tanker and Scott Gray led the three hits while striking out five and Comet golf team to a 35-19 victory walking two. over San Bernardino last Monday Comet starter Paco Gonzalez went on the Indian's El Rancho Verde the distance striking out seven, course. walking three and giving up seven .

Joe Galvin and Gary Rasmussen Tuesday's victory upped the Comled the Riverside attack with each ets record to 9-1-1 in conference and collecting two hits. Palomar got 11-2-1 overall. singles from Curt Courian and Bill Saddleback trails the first place Eiland and a double-by Dana Smith. Comets by a game and a half with
the 1650 but Riverside and Saddleback put their top swimmers into that event and it dropped me to third." "I've got a chance to make it to the state meet in the 500 free but I'm still seven seconds off the leader. "If I can keep up with him or beat him, I can possibley win the event. If I hit my turns correctly I should take third," Mowrey predicted. Hubbard thinks Delano has a chance to win either breaststroke event but it won't be easy. "The breaststroke will be the toughest event," Hubbard said. "Delano has a chance to win the 100 breast but it's going to be really close. There are six guys within a few seconds of each other, so it will be tough." The 400 medley relay will be the best event in the meet according to the host coach. "It'll be the closest event," Hubbard said. "I'd say one second will separate first from fourth. We are seeded fifth but we could swim well and finish second." The meet will feature a new scoring system with nine places and the scoring breakdown going 11-9-87-6-5-3-2-1. "With this new system depth is the big thing," Hubbard said. "One team can take a first but another team could take sixth and fourth and still get more points. Depth is the secret and our team has it."
Tanket,Gray pace golf victory just three matches remaining. Tanker and Gray paced the Comets with scores of 75. Chris Kubiak and Greg G lasso also did well finishing with totals of 79. When Tanker tied for medalist honors, it marked the sixth time a different Palomar golfer achieved the award. Last week the Comet golfers captured their easiest victory of the season as they demolished Chaffey, 53-1, on the Panthers home course.
