SDS satellite discussed for North County By Linda Kenny A satellite campus offerin g upper division courses a nd a dv a n ced degrees for North County residents was discussed in a forum recently at MiraCosta College. About 75 to 100 North County residents voiced the need that the area wanted a state-run higher education program. North County h as two junior colleges, but upper division a nd graduate level students must travel to SDSU or oth er institutions to complete their education. SDSU currently h as 15,000 fulltime students (those carrying 15 units per semester) and a n additional 7,000 part-time s tudents, as well as a 6,000 member staff. Officials were told that the overcrowding at SDSU a nd its dista n ce from North Co unty made atten- REMARKABLE ROCKER- Paintings sc ulptures , an d other art forms are currently on display at this year's multi-media show in the dance difficult for a rea residents.

For What It's Worth, , ,
Parking lot promenade at Palomar By Mary Dickinson Most people here have to drive to school and the first thing they will say about it is that they hate to park in the crowded parking lots. It makes you late to class or work after leavi ng class, and it's just a pain to try to find a place without walking for "miles." Hut did anyone ever say anything positive about the parking? Until a few days ago I would have been one of th e masses who felt negatively about it. Racing to school late one morning last wePk, I immediately started to grumble about the rotten parking I knew I would find coming at 9 a.m. " It's going to make me late," I mumbled. But I figured it was worth a try looking for one nearer to my class than thP top one by th e s ki slope. I started to circle thP lots trying to sense the " I'm leaving" look that people searching for their car keys h ave. l'v: ost of the time they were searching for a pen or pencil for class. I was beginning to get anxious about the time. "Alright," I decided, " if I don't find one soon I'll go up to the ski slope." I was beginning to concede defeat to this inanimate thing and I felt like I was Napoleon losing the battle ofW aterloo or Nixon losing the battle of Watergate. They ca n 't do this to me I mu m bled through clenched teeth! This parking lot wasn't just a daily ritual. It had become a formidable foe. If I lose this one my whole day 's shot. I'll never be able to face my teac hers or take a test or even eat lunch with my friends. Just when my gas tank was reading "E" and a ll my fingernails were chewed off, I saw IT - the one empty place in the whole lot. I darted in and parked. After that my day was a breeze. People couldn't understand, of course, why I looked dazed and glassy-eyed and smiled strangely, but then they never had the battle I just had. Most of them give up and park at the ski slope.

'Unanimous' area support felt for SDS satellite cam p us By Mary Dickinson Once a student transfers and leaves the relative safety of Palomar or Mira Costa College he or she has two options to make:1Go to a four-year college out of the area or 2Go to San Diego State. Unfortunately for San Diego, most students pick number two. So many have selected SDSU that this year for the first time, the school closed its enrollment. Carol Cox, one student with an eye on SDSU, says there has to be a better way . After completing two more semesters, Cox, a Political Science and Public Administration major here , will have to transfer to a four year college to complete her BA degree. This year with the closed enrollment she asks the question many transfer-minded students are thinking: " Where do we go?" "We needed a solution immediately," she said, "and the best was a satellite campus (of San Diego State) ." The pluses behind s uch a decision were that upper and graduate programs only would be offered so there would be no competition with the local junior colleges, and the immediate opening of the campus could start to meet the needs right now. In 1969 plans were started to set up a four year college for the North County in Vista, Cox explained. "The North County Combined Chambers of Commerce Education Committee formed to look into the matter a n d th e Thibido Ranch offered to donate land for a full fledged college. " The committee made a study in 1972 but it was never completed. "The state legislature defeated the funding , but the Chancellor's office in Long Beach looked into the possibility." With the revival of interest in the upper division campus, Cox is meeting with the ap proval of many of the very people who were interested in 1969. "The ASG passed
the plan , MiraCosta approves, and the San Marcos Chamber of Commerce approves of the ideas , although they want a full fouryear college," Cox said. MiraCosta College, like Palomar has grown since last year, and as Dr. John MacDonald said anything would be of benefit. " I've been supporting the idea since '69 and I still am." But I've observed in Sacramento that the financial support is not there with either the Reagan or the Brown regime. But there is unanimous support here." Members of the San Marcos Chamber of Commerce are less in agreement on the (Continu ed on page 3)

The match ended in a 0-0 tiP .

Second consecutive title in eyes of hockey squad Vi ,Jpffrpy has this plan. l'alomar;s head field hockey eoach fPPls that by scheduling some of the bigger Southern Ca lifornia community col leges , hPr team can gain by PXJWriPnce and hopefully n' pPat with as succPssfu l a season as thP ComPts had in 1976. And with only four playPrs returning off last ypar's I0-2-1 tPam, ,Jeffrp y is hoping the PXpPriPnCP will COmf'. '11w schedulP includes nonleague matchPs with such largp schoo ls as PiPn'P, San ])i pg-o StatP . East Los Ang-rles , l'asadena , and UCSD. Add to that opponents from the South Coast I .eague and tlw Comets should havP their work cut out for them. "It's rPally a pretty big question mark about how we're going to do against somP of the schools ,"says Jeffrt>v. "WP did schedu le some of the big-ger schools and hope to benefit from that." The Comets have had two tests this season prior to yesterday's league match against Orange Coast. In a scrimmage early last wPek, Palomar battled San Diego State to a ¡core less tie, but the Comets fell in their league opener September 22 to l<ullerton, 6-1. "I was very proud of our effort against San Diego State," said Jeffrey . " We had had only nine days of practice, and the girls really h eld them. They really showed that they don't give up , and that's something you can't teach. You can coach fundamentals , but you can't teach something like not to be scared out of a match." Jeffrey's hopes on retaining the league championship are based partly on the return of stellar goalie Erin Laird, who turned in eight shutouts last season as the Comets
rebounded from an 0-1-l start to win 10 straight before losing in the final game of the year. Laird a llowed only I :l goals in 1:l games last season and turned in the shutout against the Aztecs last week. Joining Laird as the only returning sophomores are Sheila Lemmons on defense, Audrey Mill er, who scored Palomar's only goal against Fullerton, at link , and Pam Gibbons at the outer position. Newcomers to the tea m who have seen field hockey experience in high school includ e Caren Hayek , Julie Jordan , Yolanda Ledesma, Karen Buskirk, Lydia Comacho and Karen Hayden . Two newcomers trying the sport for the first time are Janice Matero and Sharon Smith. Th e Comets will travel to Pierce Tuesday for the first of three straight away matches before returning home to face Grossmont October 1:1.
Volleyball mark even after loss Despite an insufficient number of referees and injuries to four key players, two of whom played, Coach Teri McFarland and her volleyball squad took Mesa College to five games before losing 15-9, 11-1 5, 1015, 15-9 and 11-15. The loss evens the Comets' record at 3-3. "It was a close match. It could have gone either way. Our blocking, passing and setting has improved," said McFarland. Joyce Staffer and Julie Smiley both played despite injuries. Lori Schwalbach and Sylvia Quirk both were unable to play. (Continued on page 5)
If Palomar's soccer squad could continue to play like it did in the final half of last season, head coach Chris Pagakis would undoubtedly be pleased. After a slow start, the Comets finished strongly, throwing the Mission Conference into a three-way tie , calling for a playoff series. Palomar won two playoff games to win the conference title and become eligible for the state championships. After winning their first game against East Los Angeles , the Comets were knocked off by Santa Ana in overtime, :3-2. Tough defense was one of the key reasons Palomar got as far in the playoffs as it did, and the Comets appear to be headed for another standout year on defense. After winning the first two non conference games of the year, Palomar was scheduled to open Long Beach Tournament play yesterday against San Di ego City. Thursday's winner of the tourney opener will face powerful DeAnza from Northern California in a second-round match today. The tournament is a doubleelimination affair. Palomar opened with a 7-2 victory over Orange Coast last week before blanking Harbor in Saturday's hom e opener, 2-0. Pagakis has had nothing but praise for his entire team, but he made special notice of his defensive halfback crew of Martin Barrera, Scooter McDaniel, Joe Clark and !:<rank Snyder.
JOE CLARK
"Th ese guys are real soccer players," says Pagakis. "They know the game and have h ad outstanding games so far." All four are a lso returning lettermen , having gained valuable experi ence in the playoffs last year.
SCOOTER McDANIEL
Also keyi ng the defense will be the play of goalie Scott Holthaus , a treshman from Vista. Holthaus turned in a shutout performance Saturday and has shown quick refl exes in practice. Rounding out the defense are h a lfbacks Robert Garcia , Alvaro Goenaga, Francisco Gonzalez, Roy Jongbloets, Dan Neely and Robin Nichols. David Medley s hould see time at goalie. Pagakis feels that he has a real find in center forward Ben Ortiz, a freshman from Oceanside. Ortiz scored both of Palomar's goals Saturday and knocked in three in the win over Orange Coast. Joining Ortiz at the forward spots are right
wing Malcolm Stewart from San Pasqua! and left wing Joe Emidy from San Marcos. Relief forwards include George Andrade, Joao SantAnna, Ralph Sagasser, Joe Sanchez and Jose Espinoza. Steve Coate, a freshman from Orange Glen, has played well defensively at ce nter fullback, and he is joined left fullback Lance Cornell of Torrey Pines and right fullback Ed Olivares from Vista. Also vying for the fullback positions are Nick Barnett, Cameron Goodsell, Richard Lefebre, Eric Norling and Chuy Tarango. Palomar will be home Wednesday for another match against Orange Coast beginning at 3 p.m .
Quarterbacks injured as gridders bow Frustrated by the loss of their top two quarterbacks as well as their first loss of the year, coach Mario Mendez' gridders will have an extra week of practice before opening Mission Conference play at Chaffey College, Saturday, October 8. Tt was discovered Wednesday evening during exploratory surgery
that a knee injury suffered by starting quarterback Jim Goodman was severe enough to knock him out for the season. Goodman, who had been Mendez' starter in Palomar's first three games, came into last week's contest against Santa Monica with a history of knee (Continued on page 5)
Quarterback Goodman ol.ltforyear (Continued from page 4) trouble, and he took a shot late in the game that did severe damage to the cartilage. With Rick Disney also injured , it appears that defensive back John Holland, who was called upon to do some passing duties last season also , will be sharing time with Greg Hadfield. Second-stringer Disney, who had an impressive showing in Palomar's victory over MiraCosta two weeks ago , injured a finger on his right hand during warm-ups prior to the Santa Monica game . Disney's injury was tabbed as a bad sprain , and the freshman from Orange Glen has been practicing. He could be ready for Saturday's conference opener. The Comets came into the Santa Monica game as the 13th ranked community college in the state, two notches behind the Corsairs. Palomar's 395.5 yards-per-game average ranked as the eighth most proficient offense in the state, and Goodman came in as the sixth rated passer. But the Comets ran into a quick defensive line that allowed only 66 yards rushing as the Corsiars prevailed , 10-0 , dropping Palomar's record to 2-1. Goodman had completed eight of 22 passes for 92 yards before his injury forced him out of the game. He was replaced by Kelly Frost, who played on the Iowa State freshman team two years ago . Frost, however, seems to be out of the Comet quarterback picture, having missed practice all this past week. Goodman was injured during a drive that carried the Comets to their deepest penetration of the night at the Corsairs' 29yard line, but Ken Putnam's 46-yard field goal attempt with eight minutes left in the game fell short. Palomar's defense did well against the defending Southern California Conference champions, as the Corsairs only scored on a firstperiod 79-yard interception return by Henry Henderson, a member of a secondary that includes two AllSCC backs; and a 31-yard George Ware field goal that was set up by a fumble in Comet territory .

Student loan cheaters bane of Financial Aids By Mike Johnson Financia l Aid Director Fran k Ha nkin recently indi cated a cha nging pi c ture in th e ca mpus ' Financia l Aid Departm ent, w hi ch this year had expenditures of $1.:! million. " And it is expected th ere will be no slow down ," he a dd ed. Hankin explained that financial a id , on ce j ust available to the needy studr!lts, is now helping students from a high er econo mi c base, because " more mon ey is .being m ade avail a bl e to more indi viduals." Among laws currently affecting students in th e m idd le or upper middl e socio-eco nomic bracket a re the Basic Equal Opportunity Gran t (REOG), the National Direct Student Loan and the F ederally Insured Stu dent Loan. S ince these financial aid a ll otm ents originate from the federal governme nt, there are most co mp l ex i ties and ev en "crackdowns" on student loan ch eaters . The state of Pennsylvania rece ntl y fil ed crim inal charges ag a inst 2:3 students who received government loans for education but never a ttended college classes. If con victed, 19 charged with failing to sh ow how the money was spent face a m aximum of five years in jail and a $10,000 fine , while four oth ers face a possible $25,000 fine and 10 years imprisonment for a ll eged forgi ng of a college official's n ame in cashing th e checks. "Last year, I know of at least three people here who were checked by the government, and in one case there were problems," Hankin stated. "We're respon sible for monitoring the California Opportunity Grants applicants ." Likewise, the House Judiciary Panel in Washington is currently attempting to pass a law against
s tud ents who claim bankruptcy of th eir n a ti on a l student loan , within five years of th e time it is due. " In th e past," Han kin said, " students wh o received t he national s tudent loa n co uld claim bankruptcy and didn 't hav e to pay it bac k.' ' But with the complexities of distributing and mo nitoring stud ent aid, th e governm ent has also taken steps to generali ze fi n ancial aid forms across the cou n try. Beginning in January , 1978, a brand new form will be used by a ll F in ancia l Aid departments across the United States, with th e goal of one eventual financia l aid form for all progra ms . Hankin explained, "There are no longer two forms for basi c gra n ts and fin a ncial aid ." If anything, it s hould simplify things for students, as well as cutting dow n on the to ns of added bureaucratic paperwork.
While enrolled in a sprin g semester class called "So You Want To Write, " sh e wrote a novel, Desert Inte rlude, whi ch won a n award in the un publis h ed fictio n category of a contest spon sored by th e southern district of t h e California P ress Women . ''I'm delig h ted abo ut startin g a new career," said Rogers. " Th e boys (h er neph ews) h elp wit h the housework , and I spen d every day wri ti n g. " She plans to send a s h ortened version of h er stor y to a magazi n e and revise the com plete novel a n d send it to a publish er. The story is based on fact ual incidences of a pregnant female dog that was abandoned. In her book, the dog is stolen an d abandoned in t h e desert, a nd after giving birth to her pups and many adventures, finds her way home. She plans to write her n ext book on sled dogs , says Rogers. " I'm craz y a bout dogs and can't remember a time wh en I hav en 't h ad a dog around." The fledgling author came to Palomar in a round-ab out route. When her husband died all s h e wanted to do was visit back East where she h a d graduated as a nurse
Ida Rogers' advise to older people is simple. " My recommendation for any one who wants to do someth in g, to be stimulated, is to take a clP.ss. So many people in my situation want to sit and wait for death and just vegetate. It's wonderful to be a ctive men tally. It depresses me to see a lot of women give up - I think it depends on your own attitude to keep yo ur mind functioning well. " Her instructor, Florine Atkinson, remembers Rogers as "the pet of our (spring semester) class. She brought a new chapter to cl ass with her each week , and we all waited to see what happened next! She was an inspiration to everyone. One time , h er chapter wasn 't typed , a nd she said she'd have to take a course in typewriter repair next - a n d I believe she probably will!"
