ASG pushes for student participation By Erin Thien Mter a productive summer vacation, Associated Student Government members are busy with plans for the school year, according to ASG president, G. "Sweed" Swanson. "During the summer the group was active in the National Student Organization and attended a conventiQn in San Francisco. This organization works at the federal, state and local levels for the benefit of college students," said Swanson. At the convention, which had representatives from Nevada, California, Utah and Hawaii, Swanson was elected to the National Supervisory Board. This board acts as the board of supervisors for the NSO. Student legislator Jim Lepanto was elected as an area coordinator.

certainly learned a lot from the other schools," Swanson said. Some of Swanson's concerns for this year include eliminating communication problems, student participation on committees, ASG card sales and a student assembly. "Over the summer we had an automatic answering service installed to handle all calls when no one was in the office. We are planning to continue this, so students will be able to reach us at any time," stated Swanson. A portable information booth in the Student Union has been slightly delayed, but should be ready in a few weeks. "A major concern of mine is student participation," Swanson said. "There was many com-
are administrative committees of the college which determine what will happen on campus." Approximately 25 openings for students are still available. Interested students should contact Swanwon in the ASG office, R-3. Approximately 25 openings for students are still available. Interested students should contact Swanson in the ASG office, R-3. Student activity cards sales were not as high as hoped, according to Swanson. The ASG cards sell for $5 a year or $3 a semester. Identification cards are available for $1.50 a year and $1 a semester. "The purchase of an ASG card lends monetary support to the ASG and is one of our major
incomes,'~
explained Swanson.
Benefits of the ASG cards include eye and dental care at a student arte, special discounts at recreational areas, life insurance at a reduced rate, check cashing and free admittance to all athletic events. The cards may be purchased at the Student Activity Office. "For the first time since 1969, the ASG is going to have a student assembly in October. We hope to have a speaker, have clubs set up booths, make available student information and have a live band," Swanson said. "Our main purpose is to get the students together and for them to meet with their student representatives."
Volume 28 Number 1
Muslim leader speaks tonight on ~oneness' By John Murphy Considering the original segregationist beliefs of the Black Muslims, the name "Growth Toward Oneness" seems a strange one for the lecture to be given by Minister Daniel X. Ad nan of the Nation of Islam tonight at H p.m. in room P-32, at least to anyone not familiar with recent changes in the sect's beliefs. These changes are best described in Minister Adnan's own words, "It's no longer Black Muslims, just Muslims." Recent changes have allowed whites to enter the Nation of Islam and the old "Hlack is Beautiful" sentiment, explains Adnan, was a means of balancing the scales of justice and to initiate pride in blacks rather than prejudice. The sect is now urging mem hers to become involved in the larger community. In the lecture dealing with world unity, Adnan will explain the inevitable need to coordinate world wide efforts in solving major problems, claiming the United States will be catalyst for this unity. He cites the basic freedoms of civil rights progress, and the women's liberation movement as proof of progress being made in the United States toward unity and equality. When asked what part the Muslim religion would play in a unified world, Adnan explained he cared little of a man's faith as long as they could work together, and that he would rather look at basic similiarities of religion, rather than differences. The answer reflects the positive attitude of the 40 year old Adnan who finds it easy to be positive after starting at the bottom. Horn and raised in the Watts area of Los Angeles, Adnan was in his midtwenl.ies¡and attending UCLA when he was arrested, severely beaten and imprisoned for 27 months. It was during this time that he was exposed and converted to the Muslim faith . Following his imprisonment Adnan decided he could best serve his people by understanding the system and changing it, so he went hack to school night and day while continuing to work parttime too . After attending three different colleges Adnan had earned two undergraduate degrees and a graduate degree in police science. Armed with education and faith he worked for community services. including The Department of Communitv Services. as director of the Police Ma.lpractice Center and as a resource coordinator for the House of Uhuru. a substance abuse program . He recently resigned from his position as West Coast Prison Coordinator for the Nation of Islam to become the representative of the Chief Minister of the Nation of Islam in the San Diego area. Adnan also emphasized the fact that some blacks were as much an enemy to their movement as white suppression. saying, "There is a difference between brotherhood and brothers who are hoods." He expressed pleasure at the groY•th of the Muslims. citing the 42.000 converts thev have had in the last four months, and the establishment of temples or mosques in the Carribean . as examples.

California students are expanding efforts to register 100,000 follow students to vote by the October 4 registration deadline. Student leaders hope to increase students' political influence by turning out record numbers of students to vote November 2. "Students have the numbers to decide many crucial races,'' Student Vote '76 Coordinator Kevin Woodruff said. " But students must be registered to vote to use their potential." Students who have never registered before must register. Any student who will be 18 on or before November 2 may register now and vote, Woodruff emphasized. Students who have moved since last registering must re-register, as must Islam Minister, who will spel'lk students who have changed names or occupations.

New solar telescope helps
students to view 'live' sun Students will soon be able to examine the sun "live" in the Earth Science lobby, thanks to the science department's new solar telescope. Scheduled to go into operation in late November, the heliostat, as the telescope is properly called, will have its main mirror on the ES building roof, with three optical benches downstairs in the lobby. The main mirror will track the sun automatically by means of an electric motor. Other mirrors will direct the image down into the ES lobby where it can be directed to any one of three optical benches. The simplest bench will have a white light projector which will show the image of the sun as a yard wide disk on a screen. Sunspots will be easily counted and their size and rotation noted. Prominences, million mile spurts of flame from the sun's surface, may be seen through an eyepiece on the second bench. The third bench will contain an Alpha
Changed rules affect veterans New procedures affecting veterans with over 40 units attending Palomar under the G.I. Bill are being implemented in order to comply with Veterans Administration requirements. The procedures are designed to speed up full payment of educational benefits. Questions pert<:Uning to the new procedures would be brought to the attention of the Veterans Education office, located in the administration building. Student veterans must be pursuing a major to qualify for educational benefits. A student who has prior college credit must declare a major upon entering college. A student with no prior college credit, has until the end of the first semester to declare a major. The VA will not accept self improvement. undecided or job advancement as educational objectives. If a student- changes his educational objective. a request for change of program (VA form 1995) is required. Forms are available at the VEO. Student veterans are permitted one change of educational objective \\;thout prior approval by the \'A. Additional changes may be approved . depending on the circumstances. However. in all cases the request for change of program must be submitted. Office hours at the \'eterans Education Office are Monday through Thursdav from t\ a .m. to 9 p.m . and on Friday from 8 a.m . to -!:30 p.m .

statewide." "A lot of important issues are being decided on November 2," Jim Knox of the California Community College Student Government Association said. "This state's voters will help elect the President, elect a U.S. Senator, and choose thousands of local officials. "They will also vote on i5 state ballot measures, including the controversial 'Farmworkers' Initiative,' Proposition 14." "Students have the right to participate fully in making these decisions," Knox added. "But we can't do so unless we are registered to vote." Student Vote '76 is the California project of the American Voter Education Fund, Inc., a non-partisan, tax-exempt corporation, however, and so will not favor any candidate or cause in its efforts, Woodruff concluded.
Health Services offers testing Health Services is now offering screening tests for tuberculosis, mononucleosis and throat cultures. Gene Stevens ofthe microbiology lab has volunteered to process the cultures. Once again, a cancer clinic for women will be held every other week starting September 30, at 9 a.m. A breast check and pap smear will be offered. A fee of $3.50 will be charged to cover lab costs. Those interested may go to Health Services or call Ext. 464 for information or appointments. The center is located in the HH building near parking lot D and is open daily 8 a.m. to 10 p.m. No appointment is necessary. "It is recommended that a tuberculin test be done yearly for student protection from tuberculosis," said Clarice Hankins, coordinator, Student Health Services. "We are sorry that we are unable to issue food handlers permits or do testing for credential requirements. "Mononucleosis is an infectious disease of young adults characterized by malaise, fatigue, headache, fever, sore throat and swollen glands. We can do a simple diagnostic screening test," advised Hankins. "Throat cultures are advisable if you have a sore throat accompanied by fever and malaise. Most sore throats are viral, but a culture will determine the possibility of a strep infection. Other services available include first aid and rest area, counseling, referral, vision and hearing testing, pregnancy testing, hemoglobin determination, blood pressure, diabetic screening, and a cancer clinic. Optional health insurance is available. Also, we have a referral for discount optometrist service for examination and glasses.

THE TELESCOPE
OP/ED
Readers' opinions welcomed College newspapers are forums for diversity in ideas. They are- or should be- reflective of all serious thinking on campus and in the community however idiotic or esoteric some of it may seem to the Zeitgeist. ' Of course, it must be realized that one man's freedom could be another man's straitjacket. Ergo, caution must be used to avoid possible instances of libel. . As editor of The Telescope, I am offering a forum for the sundry opinions of our readers. In future issues the OP-ED page will have space reserved for the viewpoints of our readers. These "letters" are welcomed (good ones are cherished), but there is a catch: Letters must be legible, semi-literate, and devoid of potentially libelous remarks, puffery, and dirty words. I have two reasons in mind for these stringent requirements: (1) We have a reputation to maintain, and taxpayers to keep happy. (2) We do not wish to drive such estimable publications as True Detective and National Enquirer out of business. So if you. meet these requirements, drop your "letter," signed, in the Editor's Basket in room R-4A. "Letters" are subject to condensation ifthey are too long, but the basic meaning will remain intact. Ideas, especially good ones, are becoming scarcer everyday; stagnation is penneating our society, of which Palomar College is a part. To liven things up bit around here, this "column" will appear somewhere on this page every week. The opinions expressed in this column will be strictly my own; other staff members will also be contributing individual commentaries on various topics to this page. This is what we will have: purely individualistic opinions; no unsigned and staff editorials. To the further edification of the OP-ED page, the caustic caricatures of Mike Peters, a nationally syndicated cartoonist, will be displayed weekly. To complement Peters, we need a staff cartoonist, who should be full of ideas on local affairs. If you think your work is worth displaying to the public then please bring an example of your work to room R-4A. '

Year loolcs promising Traditionally, putting out the year's first issue of The Telescope has been an agonizing and exasperating experience for those involved. This tradition remains intact. It is understandable. New staff. Summer vacation. Discipline escapes. Most of us regain our discipline; some never had it. We are slowly becoming organized. We are a team, but we have never practiced, much less, perfonned together. Maybe this is what we should call our first issue: our preseason. ¡-- Looklng ahead, the season is a promising one. Lecture series: Dr. Joyce Brothers, John Wooden, Julian Bond, Jimmy Breslin, and fonner senator of Watergate fame, Sam Ervin. Jack the Ripper, the Drama Department's smash summer hit, begins showing again on October 14. The Forensics Team will attempt to add to their collection of prestigous awards. These are just a few highlights, a mere smattering, of what The Telescope will cover this year. The Telescope has now expanded to four full sized pages, which will allow for more diversity in our coverage. For the first time The Telescope will have a full sized, weekly, OP-ED page. On the page will be col\unns, individual opinions by staff members, "feature" stories, and a political cartoon by Mike Peters, a nationally syndicated cartoonist.
Library installs system to thwart book losses Book snatching will set off bells but no fireworks within the next few weeks at the library. That's the word from Esther W. Nesbin, dead of library services at Palomar. Within the next two weeks the library will complete the installation of the Spartan Book Detection System developed by the 3M Company and cut doWn ever increasing book losses, said Ne8bin. In common with other libraries and museums, the library faced a book disappearance rate which has tripled over the past three years. During the last inventory, done this summer, librarians discovered that the loss had doubled over the-previous inventory. The loss at around $3000 is heayy, but more important, N esbin feels, is the fact that many books are irreplaceable. They go out of print or the price has risen to the point where the library cannot afford to buy another copy. Palomar investigated several alternate methods of security before settling on .t he 3M system, said N esbin. Student monitors searching bags and pockets, a locking turnstile, and a closed stack system where books must be requested and are then brought to the front desk by a page were all dismissed as being unsuitable. The SQartan Sy~tem is U8ed J>y IDQI!t community colleges and Palomar will have two systems installed, one in the

Dr. Huber stresses action "What's So Different About This Year?" was the title of Palomar president Frederick R. Huber's welcoming speech to new and returning students gathered in the Dome. The talk stressed the benefit of knowing ourselves and others rather than listing the benefits of education and future employment. Dr. Huber began by stating world issues which need attention or changes: elections, unemployment, coastal protection and corruption in politics. "You must sound the alarm" either by "helping organizations, giving support, new ideas, new leadership or blazing a new path." ' To do these tasks we must "experience and learn", he said, and this is where college can help us.
"With our knowledge of art, English, history, foreign languages, woodworking technology, etc., we can communicate, become politicians, make new discoveries and better our world as well as enjoy life more with a knowledge of how our car works, how to take care of our bodies, what is happening in a business transaction and how to communicate through speech or writing." "The student's education must _go beyond the classroom- relate to us," Dr. Huber pleaded, "the staff is here for you." Palomar is a "human care institution" as well as an educational institution. Students may wonder how the staff can care for each individual's special problem, but Dr. Huber assures us the staff tries to do just that.
"What is different about this year is that social issues are growing more intense, more complex and our own lives are growing more complex as we grow older." Most important Dr. Huber wants the individual to "find what you desire in the realm of possibilities. The student's most important task is (1) know yourself, (2) love yourself, and (3) love and understand others." He believes "We should all be alone to meditate at times or meditate with a group," mentioning inner awareness organizations, Transcendental Meditation, EST,, and Ericka. "Learn to relate to people." Dr. Huber finished with a quote from Emerson on human kind, "Trust them, they will be true; treat them great and they will be."

Palomar president Frederick R. Huber, was awarded a renewal of his contract and an increase in salary during the regular meeting of the college board of trustees September 14. The president's current employment contract expires on June 30, 1977. The trustees' action extended his term for one additional year upon his request. Effective immediately, the president's annual salary is increased from $39,000 to $41,000. Dr. Huber, who has headed the Palomar staff since 1964, expressed his satisfaction with the trustees' action.
Speech therapy offers services Speech Therapy Services are now available to all students as a part of the Handicapped Services. Jane Mills, a speech therapist, will be working parttime for the Handicapped Services as a free tutor for students with speech problems. "Anyone who has a speech dysfunction is welcome to come to the Handicapped Services. We will arrange a tutorial service. The hours can be arranged around the student's schedule," said E.R. Zevin, handicapped services director. Specific speech problems might include a dysfluent or stuttering pattern, unusual voice quality, articulation error and general overall reception and/ or expressive language problems. "This is only a part of our overall program in Handicapped Services. A speech therapy service was available last year, but on a more limited basis. This year the tutorial service will be on a one-t<rone relationship with the student," stated Zevin. ¡
"My relationship with the board and the college staff has been consistently open and productive. I anticipate a continued high level of cooperation with and support from them during these next two years." In other action, the board awarded a contract to Southwest Air Conditioning, Inc., of San Diego, to begin construction of a solar heating system for the college swimming pool. The system, which will utilize a unique, small-sized collector panel, will enable the college to heat the pool with solar energy throughout approximately 70 percent of the year. The trustees' decision to switch to solar heat was based largely on a study by college engineering students of the feasibility of utilizing solar energy to heat the swimming pool. Dr. John Schettler, assistant superintendent for business, projects that the solar heating system will pay for itself within seven years, based on current rates for natural gas which is currently used for heating the 450,000gallon system. Fall semester enrollment figures were reported at approximately 13,525, a seven percent increase over fall enrollment for 1975. Final figures will be available following census week, the official reporting period, which begins September 27. College trustees officially denied a recent local newspaper article which said that Palomar College would cosponsor a child development center in Escondido. It was the consensus of the board that, due to potential liability, the college would not be involved directly in off-campus child care.

Water polo squad set for Mission play
Undefeated g ridders on road for Monterey
With a "long list" of returning poloists off last year's water polo team that include Moss, Mowrey and Guerrero, Comet Coach Don Hubbard has a lot of experience. That's the list: Steve Moss, Mark Mowrey and Andy Guerrero. Other than those three, the Palomar team is compo~ of poloists who participated elsewhere in 1975, when the Comets finished third in the Mission Conference. After splitting their first four games, which included a loss in the opener against defending state champion Golden West, Palomar will be able to find out about the opposition early as the Comets are participating in the Mission Conference Tournament today and tomorrow at Southwestern College. After that, it's the Mission' opener Tuesday against Riverside at the Wallace Memorial Pool at 3:30 p.m. Palomar evened its record at 2-2 Tuesday when the Comets used two overtimes to knock off Santa Ana in their home opener, 10-9. It was the coach's son, freshman Paul Hubbard, who scored the winning tally, firing a · powershot past the Santa Ana goalie with less than two minutes left in the second overtime. Earlier in the week, Hubbard had tied a school record with eight goals in a 10-9loss to Santa Monica in the East Los Angeles Tournament. Other prospects that Hubbard (the coach) is looking at include goalie Dave Yendes from Avocado League-power Vista High School. Yendes, who lettered for the Comets in 1974, sat out last year with injuries suffered in an auto accident. He starred for the Panthers' 1973 SDCIF championship team.

Marrin has another good assortment of talent to work with. And if there's anything Marrin is good at, it's making good use of what he has. "I thought we ran a good race in our Invitational," said Marrin of the Comets, who placed Hubbard (the player) also starred for Vista during the '74-'75 seasons. He will be joined on the front line by Greg Cameron.
Locals host Southwestern Winners of two of their first three games, the soccer team hosts Southwestern Wednesday on the lower field at 3 p.m. The locals lost to a tough Grossmont team 2-1, Wednesday. Down 2-0 at the half, the Comets scored their only goal as Martin Barrera knocked one in halfway thru the second half. Comet goalie Bruce Sallie had 32 saves. Palomar won their first two games by scores of 4-2 over San Diego City and 3-1 over San Diego Mesa. "Outstanding players on the team thus far have been forward Barrera with three goals and goalie Sallie who has been exceptional," according to Coach Chris Pagakis.

second behind highly regarded Fullerton in Division I ofthePC Invite. "There are some other runners that I wish we had on the team, but we have the makings of another contender." Freshman Tom Hauser of Vista High School was the Comets' top finisher both at the Moonlight race September 11 and at Moorpark. Hauser ran a 21:17 over the 4.0-mile beach course while placing third, and he trimmed four seconds off that mark while placing ninth at Moorpark. Palomar totaled 38 points at Moonlight, five behind Fullerton, and finished fifth in the team scoring in Division I at Moorpark with 149 points. Mt. San Antonio College was the winner at Moorpark with 58 points. Besides being able to watch his own runners at the Moonlight race, Marrin was able to scout three other Mission teams in the meet. Chaffey College finished third behind the Comets in Division I, while Saddleback and San Diego City Colleges were second and third in Division II. Marrin's top three returning sophomores will be Shannon Laird, Fernando Serrato and Joe Tipton. Marrin believes that any of those three, along with Hauser, could be the Comets' top runner in any given race. Laird and Serrato were usually the top two runners in the Avocado League throughout their high school years, and Tipton finished only 10 seconds behind Hauser at Moonlight. Other sophomores on the Palomar roster include (followed by selected times over 4.0-mile Moorpark course) Jeff Howell (23:50), Gary Wooliscroft (23: 11), Mike Crosby, Casey Carnohan (24:19), Kurk Clarke (23: 18), Bob Short and Randy Shermcn. Heading a crop of freshmen are Hauser, Bill Eiler, who has run a 14:02.2 three-mile at high school in Orange; Thomas Eklund, who is the Swedish national age group record holder in the 10,000-meters with a 31:12 clocking; Per Jacobsson, another Swede: Jim Peila (Carlsbad HS); Jim Jelley (Torrey Pines); and Louis While (Fallbrook). Palomar's next home meet two weeks from today will be a double dual affair against Southwestern and San Bernardino Valley Colleges, and the Comets will also host the Mission Conference Finals November 2.
fullback leads the team with a 5.3 avera2:e. Palomar struggled against a weak Glendale Arizona team, winning in the opening game of the season September 11. Although the Comets only scored one touchdown, they thoroughly dominated play from a statistical standpoint. They rolled up a total of 330 yards to only 180 for Glendale. 204 yards were by rushing with 126 through the air. Palomar's T.D. was set up by an interception by Jim Leonard. They scored five plays later as Comet quarterback Tito Rendon threw a 31 yard pass to Willie Ramirez. The Comet defense was tough, but there wasn't much resistance. They intercepted two passes and recovered two fumbles along the way. Individually, fullback Dale Wilhelm had a good night, gaining 106 yards on 21 carries. The Comet quarterback Rendon hit on 50% of his passes, completing nine of 18 passes for 126 yards and one touchdown. Overall, they committed four turnovers, one on an interception and three on fumbles. Most of the mistakes took them out of possible scoring range. The Comets will return to their home field at Vista High School October 16 against Chaffey in a Mission Conference game.

YOU'RE HIRED You've filed your job application, and it was rather simple. Name, address, phone number, education, experiencejust one page. And now you're talking to your prospective employer- elderly, kindly, very sincere, Mr. Jones. "Ours is a small companY. We all work very closely together, Miss - uh -Davis, or is it Mrs. Davis? I'm sure your health is fine, and you won't be losing more than reasonable time because of illness. But-uh-what about children? Are you planning a family in the near future?" Well, Mr. Jones isn't exactly breaking any law to ask about possible children, but he may be, if he doesn't hire you in favor of someone who isn't so likely to become pregnant. The Equal Employment Opportunity act says in effect that an employer may not discriminate against anyone on the basis of sex. That means it's none of the employer's business whether you're married, unmarried, or in a meaningful relationship. But suppose the employer asks you anyway? And then gives the job to someone else? Then he may have broken the law. And you may be able to collect damages. Because he might not be able to prove that the person who got the job was really better qualified than you. But if he can, he's home free. For example, suppose the job specifications call for at least 60

words per minute typing speed, with minimum number of errors. You typed 61 with 3 errors; the person who got the job did 64 with only l error. Then the employer would have been justified. Suppose it were the other way around, and you proved to be the better typist? And the employer said, "That's right; but it's too rough on me if I don't have a trained employee around for several weeks. The lady ·I hired is a 4 7 year old widow; Mrs. Davis here is 25 and married. I just can't afford to take a chance on someone who may become pregnant and take off all that time." That argument won't impress the Equal Opportunities office. He's still discriminating on the basis of sex. Anyone is liable to have to take time off. And a typist can easily be replaced by a temporary. Suppose the job is very unusual, and you cannot be . replaced with reasonable eaae? Then the employer should be
sure to spell this out, with reaaona why, in his job apecificationa.

After two games in which the Comets won by a total of three points, Palomat College will take its unblemished football mark to Peninsula College near Monterey Bay Saturday night. Palomar picked up its second win of the year last week, as the Comets rallied from a 14-3 fourth-quarter deficit to defeat Mt. San Jacinto College, 16-14. With quarterback Tito Rendon and wide receiver Willie Ramerez connecting seven times for 102 yards, the Comets pulled out a contest that featured 13 punts. Rendon, who completed nine of 21 passes for 121 yards but.. suffered his second twice-intercepted game in a row, scored the winning touchdown late in the final period on a three-yard run. Ken Putnam's 27-yard field goal in the first period got the Comets on the board first but Mt. San Jacinto scored twice for a 14~· 3 halftime lead. Mike Cerroni scored early in • the fourth period to put the Comets in range, and Rendon's late run sealed it. With his seven catches, Ramirez moved into second place on Palomar's two-game totals, one behind Stu Peterson, who has nine. But Ramirez has the yardage lead, averaging 16.6 yards per catch. After running for 106 yards in the opening win over Glendale, Dale Wilhelm managed only 38 yards against Mt. San Jacinto. Still, the freshman
