Food wins praise On this campus, there are many faultridden systems, classes, offices, etc. While it is good to point these faults out from time to time, it is also worthwhile to mention those things that are good. We feel one institution worthy of such mention is the Good Food Store in the Student Union. The Good Food Store has been on campus for four years, the first two run by the students, and the last two by the district. The students had to fight quite a battle to get the store, and have managed to keep it going. The store is presently open from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. daily. This store provides food that is natural, healthy, and tasty. Though . their prices may be a little high (whose aren't these days?), we feel the patron gets what he pays for. Some of the more exotic sounding menu items are: Falafil (a grass-like seasoning), Raw milk, PapayaParadise, Yogurt, and Kefir (a sort of liquid yogurt). The menu has always been about its present size, with foods (such as Granola, which didn't sell well) being added or dropped. One of the best points of the Good Food Store is that it offers an alternative food source to those students and faculty members who must eat on campus. This way the student has a choice between the cafeteria or lunch counter fare and " health food" from the Good Food Store. It appears that the Good Food Store is operating at near peak efficiency. It's operation hours are such that the greatest number of students are served, while it is unprofitable to open earlier to remain open longer. The line may get long at times, but the wait is usually short. The stock of food is well-maintained, and is kept fresh by freezers. When a food items does run out (such as avocados), it is because it is not ripe, or hasn't been delivered. The staff is efficient and not over-or underworked. All in all, we feel that the Good Food Store is one of the good things about Palomar, as it offers a choice in eating places on campus.

Spring's sprung, the gross riz; wonder where the campers is? Ah, dear reader, it is spring again! Smell the grass, (if you can find any grass in California), see the beautiful flowers, (if you can see through the smog), hear the birds sweet songs, (above the freeway noises). Do I sound cynical? Well, I'm not really. Because I know there is a way we can do all these things without the smog and traffic. What is this wonderful means of relaxation, you ask? It's the all-American sport of camping. Camping is the gettingback-to-nature pasttime. It is as old as America itself. Living in a log cabin was one of the earliest forms of camping, and look what happened to them. The covered wagon was the first recreational vehicle, if you call that recreation. But today we have more sophisticated ways of getting back to nature. Today there are three types of campers. There is the do-it-yourselfer. This is the back-packing, tentcarrying kind. The most true to the elemental spirit of camping. I could have been one of these adventurous souls, but I always forgot which pole went where in the tent, and could never figure out how to get out of my sleeping bag once I had zipped it up to my ears. The second type is a little more modern. He has a fold out camper which sleeps six and provides him with a canvas roof over his head. He also has more modern cooking equipment: enter the Coleman stove. I also thought about becoming this type of camper until during a rainstorm I touched the canvas top and was im-
mediately drenched, and lost three eyebrows and several hairs while trying to light my stove. This brings us lastly to the luxury camper. This guy has everything. A 30-foot Explorer with built-ins, sleeps eight, has hot and cold running water, and a john that really flushes. This is my kind of camper. He doesn't have to fight heat because his unit is airconditioned; he doesn't fight zippers because he has a kingsize bed to sleep in; he doesn't worry about rain because the roof over his head is metal; and he has no fear oflosing his hair because his stove is run by electrical current. You never see our " contemporary camper" way out in the woods. There are no electrical outlets to run the lights or keep the beer cold way out in the woods. Where you do see them is in the "planned · community" campground. This is like a resort hotel, where you bring your own room. These campgrounds are marked off in neat rows with numbered spaces. They have complete electrical and water facilities. The best feature is the clubhouse, complete with heated swimming pool and general store where you can buy anything, just in case you forgot some necessity like an electric coffee pot. These campgrounds are usually well marked, and just minutes from the freeway. The nominal (?) fee that is charged is taken in stride by our modern camper, so as to avoid the inconvenience of having to fight off things like trees and tall weeds and, ugh, animals.
Lastly, we see our "contemporary camper" communing with nature. Sitting in his airconditioned coach, on his comfortable bed, watching his color television, sipping on a martini. Ah, such is the camping life! Camping has come a long way since our forefathers travelled the Oregon trail. Our camping is much more luxurious than their living.
To the Editor: The tennis team and I really appreciated the nice and thorough article in the April 30th edition of The Telescope . Thank you very much for making it the feature story and for including a picture. I have a few suggestions on comments I have heard from students. Mainly, they wondered the names of the students as they were not mentioned in the caption. Also, it referred to the "girls' tennis team" rather than "women's tennis team." These comments are for your use if you wish. Again, accept my kindest thanks and appreciation for an excellent article and story by Greg. Sincerely yours, Nan Haugen Tennis Coach

'Nation's soundtrack'
Evolution keeps rock 'n' roll living on Many knowledgeable reviewers and music joumalists have lately been voicing their suspicions in print. Rock music, they say, is on the downward slide; it is disappearing in favor of new popular music forms. In reflecting the attitudes of both the individual and society, rock has been called "the soundtrack of a nation." Rock changes as society changes, making it a vital and immediate art form. The rock elegists point tu West Indies reggae music as rock's replacement, and claim the uphill charge of disco music as proof of rock's decline. Although much of the critics' views are valid, an argument can be made for rock's survival.
Since its beginnings, rock has been a form of art, constantly expanding in all directions. This evolution is both a trait of rock and a major factor in its appeal. What the rock elegists perceive as the "death" of rock may only be another set of changes.
The physical emotion of protest songs has given way to introspection and individual feelings. The Who's Peter Townsend has gone from lyrics resisting change: "Hope I die before I get old," to acceptance of aging: "But, however much I booze/ there ain't no way out."
When rock's first decline occurred in the late fifties, it was due to a retum to pop tunes. The music was still called ''rock and roll," but as the Rolling Stones' Keith Richard remarked, "you were getting By the Light of the Silvery Moon and My Blue Heaven. The initial wham had gone." Since rock's revival in the mid sixties, songs have become more thoughtful and intellectually based.
Many critics maintain that the best recent rock has been created by the same familiar performers. Bob Dylan, Neil Young, Jefferson Starship, and The Who have all been around in one form or another for many years. But, the critics tend to ignore the fact that all of these performers have come out of recent slumps. In their suprisingly dramatic retums all of these people are creating music vastly different
from previous efforts. Rock's old guard is aware of what rock is about. Although rock is entertainment, it is entertainment with a purpose. Those classified as artists use rock as a platform upon which to pursue their goals. Although the doom-sayers predict the loss of rock, the old timers are far from through; instead they are into furthering rock. Rock itself is the offspring of many music forms; folk, rythmn and blues, country, and reggae. It's perfectly natural then, for rock to be "diluted" in such forms as jazz-rock, pop-rock, and folk-rock. It's just another stage in the evolutionary process that is called rock 'n' roll.
Shows delight children, ~~@~o~ooo everyone at Planetarium ~~=:.:.~:::~s=M~¡b.. Dear Friend, Thank you for letting me go to your place. I really liked it. It was so good that I thought it was reaL Sincerely, Steve. The preceding letter is just one of many written by elementary school children who visit the Planetarium. Each year students from dozens of classes from several area elementary, junior high, and high schools come to view the shows of the 10year old Planetarium. This month's show is entitled, Black Holes. These holes are concentrations of matter with fantastic gravitational fields, pulsars, rotating beacons of outer space, quasar, mysterious sources of radio energy and apparently moving at speeds previously throught impossible. June's program will be Are the Martians Coming? and scheduled for July is Spaceship Earth. Explore the Sky will be shown the first two weeks in August. Free performances are also given for the public each Wednesday at 7:15 and 8:30p.m. Program changes are made on the first Wednesday of each month. The inside of a 30-foot dome made of perforated aluminum serves as a
ceiling and a projector screen. The projector, a SpitzA3 Prime Sky type, projects one half of the celestial sphere, or various sections there from the screen. This instrument is a complicated system of mirrors, lenses and perforations. Able to show the sky from any place on Earth, the Planetarium can also go back and forth in time. The main Projector, which duplicates the motion of planets around the sun, is star ball With colors. Ithas a high intensity lamp; suspended is a steel basketball. There are tiny holes for faint stars and lenses for the larger stars. Joseph Willis, Planetarium director, and Charles Coutts, Dean of Science, installed the unit's audio system themselves. "At the time," Willis said, ''it was rather like building a Hi Fi set, but we really expect to have fun with the special effects." The astronomy instructors use special visual effects also. Comets, meteorite showers and auorae call for equipment such as strobe lights and theatrical spots. Total equipment in the Planetarium cost just under $30,000. Constellation charts and other
printed materials are passed out to visitors at the Planetarium to help explain the lectures.

Women netters capture SDWIAC tennis tourney After capturing first place in the San Diego Women 's Intercollegiate Tennis Tournament, the Comets are now participating in the Southern California Community College Tournament through tomorrow at Long Beach City College. "This tournament includes approximately 40 community colleges from the San Diego, Santa Barbara and Los Angeles areas," coach Nan Haugen said. Last year at this event, Jan Johnson reached the semi-finals and Melana Peer went to the quarterfinals. Representing the Comets this year are Peer, Johnson, Janis Johnson and B. Koebke in singles and the team of Leslie Edman and Leslie Koman in doubles. " Players can only participate in

Arch e rs dominate Southern Cal tourney Palomar's archery team placed first in five of six divisions to dominate the Southern California Communtiy College Conference Championships, May 6 at Mt. San Antonio College. The Comets are now preparing for the United States Intercollegiate Championships this weekend at Cocoa Beach, Fla. Included in the national field will be squads from 33 colleges and universities. In the conference championships, Scott Page led Palomar as he recorded a season high of 821 points for
first place in the men's "A" division . Combining for 2,378 points, the Palomar men won first place by edging San Bernardino (2,365) a nd Cerritos (2,362). The Comet women's squad also outscored San Bernardino to claim the number one spot in the " A" division. Palomar totaled 2,170 points, Indians had 2,064, a nd Mt. San Antonio trailed with 2,064. Top shooters for Palomar were Mary Wilkins, who placed second with 772, and Debbie McC a nn, who finished fourth with 730.
~~@([~~ singles or doubles during this tournament," Haugen said. "Therefore I don't expect too much , because we are not sending a whole team and cannot enter the number two and three doubles teams." At the county tournament last week, the squad came home with seven finalists in nine events, including four first and three seconds. "Everybody played fantastically last week. It was a good tournament because everyone had to play 20 to 25 sets of tennis in three days," commented Haugen. " During the tournament we defeated all the schools in San Diego country and in my opinion, reestablishing what we did by winning the league." The first place winners and their categories are Edman, number two singles; Jan Johnson, number three singles; B. Koebke, number six singles and the team of Edman and Koman, number two doubles. Reaching the second place bracket were Peer, number one singles; Koman, number five singles and the combination of Jan Johnson and Peer, number one doubles. "The doubles did a good job,"
Haugen said. "They have improved a lot over the season. Also Trudy Crockett, who was a sub for Jan is Johnson, played outstanding for having been moved up and put in this position. Ordinarily, she had been playing the number seven spot, but for the tournament had to move up to number four." The teams participating in this tournament were San Diego State University, University of San Diego, University of California San Diego, Mesa, Grossmont, Southwestern and San Diego City College. The Comets beat all these teams during the regular season.
laPerriere cops national iavelin mark Luc LaPerrierre and Shannon Laird spearheaded Palomar's excellent seventh place finish at the West Coast Relays at Fresno last Saturday when they finished first in the javelin and steeplechase respectively. Coach Doc Marrin was very happy being seventh in the state. "We had a great meet at Fesno. It was the best we've done in the 10 years I've been here." LaPerrierre's throw of 250-7 is the best J C toss of the year in the nation, and third best of all time. It also destroyed the old relay record of 2347 set in 1973 by Keith Goldie of Chaffey. Laird's fantastic steeplechase run stopped the clock at 9:21.3, easily breaking Wilbur Wester's 1975 school record of 9:24.0. Jeff Kennedy ran an excellent 14.3 to take fourth in the 120 high hurdles. The distance medley team of Kurt Clarke (1:58.7, 880), Mike Crosby (49.9, 440), Joe Tipton (3:07.7, 1320), and Laird (4:18, mile)finished a very creditible sixth. Tomorrow the spikers head to Mt. SAC for the So. Cal. Prelims, with the finals slated for May 22.
