Chappell brings new ideas to ASG scene By Erin Thien Both old and new faces will be entering the Associated Student Government scene when the recently elected officers and legislators take office in early May. One of these old faces is presidentelect Steve Chappell, who previously served as chairman of the executive cabinet. New faces in the cabinet are Sheri Dolan, vice president and Kerin Essex, treasurer. Chappell is already making plans for the coming year which include bettering communications, advance planning of events and improving the ASG card packet. "First I want to get my cabinet together. What we need is 10 people who are willing to work, instead of the usual 15," stated Chappell. Advance planning of activities and communicating these plans will be one of the major concerns of the new cabinet.
"This past year the main mistake of the ASG was waiting until the last minute to plan and prepare for an activity. We will try to plan well in advance, so everything will be laid out and run smoother," said Chappell. Homecoming is one area where Chappell is already planning events. "We want to make Homecoming a better success than it has in the past. During the summer all the plans will be made, so in the fall we will know what will take place. So far, I have been thinking of having a semiformal dinner and dance the night before for the candidates," said Chappell. As chairman of the executive cabinet, Chappell worked on adding more benefits to the ASG card. This resulted in one of the best sales campaigns in recent years. Chappell plans to continue along this line. "We will continue working on
bettering the ASG card packet. We are now starting to get feedback on the buying power card. We soon as we get a corn plete list of the merchants we will publish it. Until more cards come in, we are trying to get the merchants to give discounts to ASG card holders." Chappell also plans on improving the by-laws and keeping the ASG office open longer. With a more informative government as his goal, Chappell would also like to see the Disneyland trip as a standard activity and more discount programs for all students. "Overall it was a very interesting election," said Chappell. "Going by past records, the turnout was good, but it can be much better. The total was doubled over last year. I think all the people who ran and those who voted should be congratulated because they showed a real concern for their school." Uncertain how things will go next
year, Chappell hopes for more representation m the student legislature. "This year's legislature was too conservative with money. Not that they should spend all of it, but some things that were really needed were not bought," he commented. "Also, the legislature didn't represent the student body as it should have, imd this caused trouble in the functioning of student government. There were a lotofpersonal grudges, but the legislature still should have shown respect for the office," added Chappell. As for next year, Chappell feels a great responsibility to the entire student body. "I hope everyone elected realizes the responsibility we have to the whole student body and not just to some selective clubs. We have important positions as student representatives and I hope everyone keeps that in mind," he concluded.

'Weelc of Young Child' scheduled Sex stereotyping in young children will be the subject explored on campus, April 20-22 during the "Week of the Young Child." The observance of the week, April 16-22, is a time set aside both nationally and at the local level for re-emphasizing the rights, the needs and the well-being of young children. Dr. Diane Ehrensaft will speak on the subject "Sex Role Stereotyping in Children's Development" Wednesday at 7:30 p.m. in the Student Union. Dr. Ehrensaft. who earned her Ph.D. in Social Work and Developmental Psychology, is from the School of Education at UC Berkeley. She is concerned both with the effects of sex role stereotyping on the development of children and with some of the solutions or tactics which educators have reached. Dr. Ehrensaft recently said, "We have discovered that differential treatment of boys and girls has been, in some instances, stifling to healthy social and cognitive development of both sexes. But we have also often settled for some very obvious but superficial solutions give boys dolls and girls trucks and all will be well. Put girls and boys in the same gym class and we've got the problem licked." "My talk will demonstrate that such tactics, while important, are not enough. As people involved now or in the future with the socialization of young children, we need to address some very fundamental questions: Do adults interact differently with boys and girls? If so, how? and why? What are the effects (Continued on page 8)

String quartet will perform The Purcell String Quartet, former leading members of the Vancouver Symphony Orchestra, will appear in concert at Palomar College Monday. The program will begin at 8 p.m. in the P-32 auditorium. Formed in Vancouver, the Canadian quartet made its debut in 1969, and has earned press acclaim and a growing audience through concerts in British Columbia, CBC and BBC broadcasts and tours throughout North America and England. Their United States debut was made at New York's Carnegie Recital Hall in 1974. The quartet's extensive repertoire includes 11 works by contemporary Canadian composers, several of which were commissioned especially for the quartet. The Palomar concert will include Quartet in G Major, Op. 77 #1 by Haydn; a quartet written for the Purcell String Quartet by Elliot Weisgarber; and Beethoven's Quartet in B flat Op. 130. Since 1972, the Purcell String Quartet has been quartet-inresidence at Simon Fraser University, Burnaby, British Columbia. According to a San Francisco Chronicle reviewer, "The Purcell Quartet is the best thing that's happened to the concerts in some time ... so wonderfully matched to each other; there is no weak link among the four." Admission to the concert is $2 for the general public or $1 for Gold (Photo by Dave Hightower) Card holders and students.

Jazz-rock ensemble will play with choir Sunday Gospel Choir and Palomar's JazzRock Vocal Ensemble (JRVE) will appear together for the first time in a program Sunday that will feature some of the most talented vocalists in the county. The concert will begin at 8 p.m. in the College Dome. "Excitement plus!" was a comment made about the JRVE at the Reno Jazz Festival. The panel of judges, allrenownedjazzmusicians, also commended the "inspired arrangements" used by the JRVE. Much of the group's music is especially arranged for them. Excitement and quality music also characterize the UCSD Gospel Choir, directed by classical/ jazz pianist Cecil Lytle. The choir, is composed of 32 singers and instrumentalists who perform indigenous Afro-American sacred music, spirituals and gospel songs. In addition to presenting numerous concerts at UCSD and in the San Diego community, the choir participated in the "Two Centuries of Black American Art Festival" at the Los Angeles County Museum and toured California penal institutions as well as art centers in Scottsdale, Arizona; Dallas and Houston, Texas. The JRVE has also appeared throughout San Diego County and has toured throughout California.
Comprised of 12 singers and a ninepiece band, the JRVE performs a variety of musical styles. "Their performance is lively and entertaining but the main emphasis is on the quality of their music," says JRVE director David Chase. Chase, a faculty member of Palomar and UCSD, not only directs the JRVE, but also conducts the Palomar Chamber Singers and the La Jolla Civic University Orchestra Chorus. He has been a Jazz arranger and pianist for many years. Since joining the UCSD music faculty two years ago, Cecil Lytle founded the Gospel Choir and several jazz ensembles as part of the Afro-American Music Program at UCSD, while simultaneously continuing an active performance career himself. He has been a soloist in chamber music recitals and jazz concerts throughout the United States, appearing several times with such groups as the Boston Symphony and the Madison Summer Symphony. Tickets for the performance are $2 general admission and $1 for students and Gold Card Holders. Tickets will be sold at the door and are also available in advance through the Palomar Music Department. Formoreinformationcall7441150, e,."t. 549 or ext. 349.
Speakers take championships Six Palomar students became state champions during the California Community College Forensic Association Tournament held at Sacramento City College last month. The Palomar forensics squad scored an impressive showing. John Theobald led the squad to its eighth place victory in sweepstakes by capturing first place gold awards in both extemporaneous and impromptu speaking. These events, according to Coach Pat Schwerdtfeger, ''require an up-todate knowledge of current affairs and an ability to organize thoughts in a limited period of time." Steve Jess also excelled in extemporaneous speaking, capturing a second place silver award. Jess,
along with teammate Mark Mowrey fought a hard battle against 30 community colleges to place third in lincoln-Douglas debate. Mowrey and Jess both were defeated in 2-1 decisions by Moorpark College. Julie Lawson was awarded third place bronze awards for her performance in persuasive speaking and communications analysis. Lisa Osborne placed first (gold award) in persuasive speaking, while colleague Chuck Van Frank captured a third place (bronze award) in communications analysis. Jana Kent, Mary Sue Rafalko, Wanda Laubscher, James Nicholas, and Ed Estes also supported the team effort.

According to bilingual educational instructor Joel P. Rivera, the conference is especially aimed at parents and faculty members, and will be conducted in both Spanish and English. The major goal of the conference is to define problems for further consideration said Rivera. "The fact that MexicanAmericans have had problems in the public schools for years is indisputable," said Rivera. "The drop-out rate amoung MexicanAmerican youngsters in public schools is incredibly high; one-third to one-half, sometimes even higher. Reading scores and other performance indicators have been consistently lower in barrio schools than elsewhere. "Chicanos are convinced," said Rivera," that part of the problem is that many Mexican-American children never recover from the

trauma of trying to bridge the gap between homes, where Spanish is the primary language, and schools, where it is presumed that every student knows English." Palomar College is attempting to solve the problem locally by the bilingual education program which allows Spanish-speaking children to learn basic subjects in their "home" language, while at the same time, gradually introducing them to English. The conference will start at 8:30 a.m. in P-32 and is open to the public.

'YOU'VE COME A LONG WA

Swimmers Jane Thompson and Nancy Golden (above) warm-up before a women's swim meet. The next meet will be April 26 against Cypress at home. Pam Martin (below left) works on her archery skills. The women's archery squad is currently holding first place in their conference and will travel to Cerritos next Tuesday. ·
"You've come a long way, baby," has become a trite saying in the area of woman's equality. In thecaseofthewoman's athletic department, this cliche is only partly true. "We compare very well to all the junior colleges in the area and have ever since we started," said Vi Jeffery, woman's athletic director. "Progress has been slow, but we have added when possible. We are represented in many different sports and, overall, I believe we have a good program with good coaching." However, changes are coming about. A recent meeting of the Mission Conference, which the men's athletic teams currently compete in, added the women's program. At this meeting women were given a full vote in conference decisions for the first time. "I know that most of the coaches are looking forward to the league change because now all women's sports are going to be uniform. Having uniform rules for all sports and schools will be great for women's sports. Plus, more schools will be forced to add women's sports to save face," stated Jeffery. Palomar will not have to do much to save face as they will rank high in representation. The Comets currently support eight sports, the most in

"Personally, I would like to see more emphasis on women's track and field. Area high schools are running good programs and the interest is coming to the junior college level. At the moment we just have a small team, which sometimes competes at the men's track meets," he added. Title IX has helped the women's program mainly in the areas of budget and use of facilities. "Title IX gave us a lever. We now have our own budget and more success in sharing facilities. Our budget is increasing, but mainly because we have added more sports and therefore funding has had to increase," said Jeffery. The next step for the department seems to be moving in the area of recruiting area high school athletes. "We are going to have to start recruiting. San Diego State is trying to build their program now and recruiting many athletes from this area, right out of high school. They can't wait for the athlete to finish junior college, and we are losing prospects. But this is a new field for us and something we will have to lean1," commented Jeffery .

Netters blitz Chaffey in conference playoff Winning in impressive fashion as usual, P alom ar's tennis squad opened the men's Mission Conference playoffs with an easy 9-0 victory over Ch affey T uesday on the Comets' courts. Th e win was more or less a warm-up for yesterday's conference championship against San Diego City. Results could not be t urned in for press time, but the m atch between the Comets and the Knights at Saddleback College could have meant a lot to the City players, who have lost twice to the Comets this season, 5-4 a nd 6 112-2 1/~ . After romping through eight undefeated Mission seasons, th e Knights met their match twice this year in the Comets, who finished with a 6-0 regular season mark a n d brought a 16-4 overall record into yesterday's ac¡ tion. Head coach Mike Curran has stated th a t the Southern Division of the Mission Conference was much stron ger than the North, and that was proven Tuesda y as the Panth ers could garner only one set
victory all day against the Comets. Palomar outscored Chaffey in the singles, 84 games to 11 and did the same in the doubles, 38-17. Nobody was pressured in the singles as Chris Laver, Curran's number one player, topped Dennis McGervy, 6-2 6-0; Herb Hops defeated Tim Castle, 6-0 6-3; Ron Peet blanked Bill Bahrens, 6-0 6-0; Lyle Chamberlain stopped Joe Vandressen, 6-2 6-0; Jess Asper handled Ron Peck 6-1 6-0; and George Bungarda ripped RichAlvana, 6-162.
In the doubles, Laver and Hops teamed for 6-2 6-0 wins over McGervy and Castle; Peet and Chamberlain outvolleyed Bahrens and Vandressen, 6-2 6-1; and Asper teamed with Doug Fenske to trip Peck and Alvana in the contest's closest match, 6¡2 2-6 6-4. The netters will use next weekend's co-ed Ojai Tournament, which runs April 21-23, to prepare for the Mission Conference Tournament which will be held April 28-30 at Saddleback.

laperriere sets javelin marie at Relays; Petranoff second A pair of lifetime bests in the javelin throw portion of last week's Southern California Relays netted Palomar College a new school record and a fine back-up man to the man who holds that record . The Comet track squad placed second in Thursday's event with 72 points, 12 behind the Division II winner, Grossmont. Competing against nine other teams in the division, Palomar copped firsts in the javelin and t he four-mile relay. Second-place finishes came in a javelin and the 880-yard relay. Luc Laperriere, whose best of 250'8" last year ranked him tops in California, topped that mark as well as everybody else's this year with a 255'9" effort for the season's top junior college mark in the nation. The distance also provided a new province mark for Ontario, Canada, from where the talented sophomore is from .
Tom Petranoff, another multitalented athlete, backed Luc's performance with a toss of 232'10". It is a lifetime best for the freshman, but Petranoff had spent only the last two months of his lifetime with a javelin. The future months of his lifetime could see him as the starting quarterback for Mario Mendez' football team. Four of Palomar's distance aces teamed up to take the four-mile relay in 17:22.4, a 16-second margin of victory. Joe Tipton's 4:10.1 mile paced the team of Bob Short, Tipton, Shannon Laird and Frank Candelario. Rollie Joe Siai Siai zippedtoa20.8 clocking in his 220-yard leg of the 880-yard relay, in which the Comets were timed 1:28.9. Palomar hosted San Diego City yesterday and was expected to wrap up an 8-0 dual meet season heading into tomorrow's Bakersfield Relays.
Comets cop Desert title with 6-5 win After returning to non-conference winning baseball in the Desert Classic over Easter Vacation, the Comet baseball squad dropped another Mission Conference contest Tuesday, this one a 3-2 decision to Citrus in 10 innings. Palomar was scheduled to host Southwestern yesterday and will travel to Chaffey tomorrow for a 1 p.m. game. Going into the Citrus game, which opened second-round action for the Comets in the Mission Conference, Jim Clayton's crew had averaged 8.3 runs in their last eight outings. That run output provided the Comets with a 9-4 win over Barstow in Thursday's opener, a 12-8 onslaught over Antelope Valley in Friday's semi-final, and a come-from-behind 6-5 win over Mission foe Riverside City in Saturday's championship game. The hitting continued in Tuesday's game, but the loss dropped Palomar's conference mark to 5-8. Overall the Comets are 15-10 for a 10-2 mark outside the conference. Palomar notched 12 hits against Owl pitching, but stranded nine men in the extra-inning defeat. George Robins was one of four Comets with two hits and it was his one-out double in the first inning that scored Tab Yetzer and Dave Fonseca for a 2-0 lead. Palomar had numerous threats throughout the game, the strongest coming in the sixth inning when Comet baserunners were thrown out at the plate by centerfielder Jay Shellin and starting pitcher Hank Ritchey. It was Shellin who singled to open the bottom of the tenth for the Owls. Shellin moved to third on a single and scored the winning run on a throwing error by second baseman John Machado. Despite outhitting the opponent, 12-6, the Comets had another Mission Conference loss. In the Desert final against Riverside City, the Comets, who had earlier dropped 4-3 and 10-9 decisions to the Tigers, entered the top of the ninth inning trailing, 4-3. Porter Wyatt started the inning by advancing to first base after the RCC catcher dropped a third strike. After moving to second on a grounder, Wyatt moved to third on a base hit by Fonseca. Robins' sacrifice fly brought home Wyatt with the tying run before Butch Chism singled to put runners on first and second. Jim Scranton singled home Fonseca, knocking starter Joe Preciabo out of the game for RCC. Reliever Larry Jordan was then greeted by a Jim Enterline single for an insurance run, which the Comets needed when the Tigers scored an unearned run off Pete Chapin in the bottom of the ninth. Palomar reliever Stan Sutton came on for Chapin, who limited the Tigers to five hits in 8 2/3 innings. Sutton got th~ final out with the bases loaded, giving the Comets their championship. Going into Tuesday's contest, Chism's .355 average led the Comet batting, with Yetzer trailing at .330.
Owens, Koeblce set for Ojai
singles action Travelling to one of the toughest tennis tournaments in Southern California next Thursday, the women's tennis team has high hopes. The Comets are coming off a key match yesterday with Grossmont. Both teams entered the contest with 6-0 San Diego Women's Conference records, Palomar upping their record Wednesday with a 9-0 victory over Glendale. Overall, the Comets were 12-0 going into Thursday's event. Representing Palomar in the singles at the Ojai Tournament which runs April21-23, will be Liri¡d~ Owen, who defeated her Glendale opponent, 6-2 6-3, and B. Koebke, who was victorious, 6-2 6-0. Owens is number one singles for coach Nan Haugen, while Koebke has been playing in the number four spot. Leslie Edman and Leslie Koman, who won 6-0 6-0 Wednesday and are the defending Southern California doubles champions, will play doubles at the tourney. Each team is limited to two singles players and one doubles team. " It was a real tough decision to decide which players should go," said Haugen. "Edman thought of playing singles, but then we both thought that she would do better in doubles. This is a strong tournament and the Leslies have a lot of experience playing together." Singles hopefuls Owen and Koebke have been working all week for the tournament. " Owen has a good chance. She has been playing better and better," stated Haugen. " Recently, she almost beat a player from Mesa who is still undefeated. I've been working on middle approach and concentration with her. Koebke's game is steadily improving. She has the qualities of a number two or three player."
