Instructor Jane Jackson dies "Jane Jackson was such a lively person, that it was only fitting that she die dancing," Ann Haney, head of the Behavioral Sciences Department, said of her colleague, who died December 21 while at a dance in San Marcos. She was 45. Jackson , survived by four children, taught at Palomar for five years. After originally graduating from Palomar, she attended UCSD and received a bachelor of arts degree in psychology. While then Behavioral Science Department chairman, Harry Mahan was on sabbatical, she took over his classes.

Soon after, she was hired full-time. "She was a real go-getter, active in many things, always trying new things ," Haney said, "One of the things she did was team teach with other instructors. " Something that hadn't been done before, was team teaching Psychology I with instructor Mark Vernoy. "We each taught our specialities," Vernoy said, "Mine were perception and psysiological psychology and hers were learning and memory." Prior to her death she was studying memory processes for work on

her master's degree. Haney spoke of Jackson as being committed to the students. The feelings were apparently mutual as Jackson was named ''teacher of the year" a few years ago . "She was one of the most popular teachers here," Haney .said. "Jane considered herself a 'retread,' someone who decides after many years to come back to school for more education," Haney said. It was for the older woman who has (Continued on page 2)

LASALLE QUARTET- Members ofthe LaSalle Quartet are (Lto R) Henry Meyer, violin, Lee Fiser, cello , Peter Kamnitzer, viola, and

Walter Levin, violin. See related story below.

LaSalle musical quartet performs concert Sunday Having performed fo r nearly 30 years, The LaSalle Quartet will play here again Sunday, at 7 p.m. in room C-6. Three members of th e quartet met atJulliard in 1946. After graduation from there, La Salle became the quartet-in-residence at Colorado College in Colorado Springs, and later accepted an appointment to the College Conservatory of Music at the University of Cincina tti, its headquarters today.

The Quartet's special interest in the so-called " n ew Viennese" school of composers has grown throughout the years. " I think it is terribly important to play contemporary music," commented violinist Walter Levin, "if only because it makes such a difference in your understanding of the classic repertoire. "In fact, musicians should learn from all kinds of music," Levin added. "Too many, I am afraid, keep to a narrow view of their own little world."

"Multi-Cultural Education in American Society : Then to Now." Currently with the University of Chicago , Dr. Krug will trace the history of multicultural education and outline ethnic factors in American politics. The author of a number of important books and textbooks in history and the social sciences , he is also a frequent contributor to many professional journals and magazines on education , as well as history and the social sciences . Palomar's Geodesic Dome is only one of Buckminister Fuller's many inventions and ideas that have pushed mankind into the future. His lecture "Remapping Our World," will be held at 8 p.m. January 20 in the Student Union. Dr. Fuller holds World Patents in 55 countries and 20 U.S. Patents for his futuristic designs. Dr. Fuller's "Operating Manual for Spaceship Earth" in 1968 demonstrates his popularly accepted stature as a global architect and consciousness designer . His awards, honorary degrees and accomplishments seem endless. An exhibition of Fuller's at the Dymaxion House at Harvard in 1929 was the first pivotal exhibition in his long career of innovative design. In 1959 he designed the 200 foot diameter geodesic dome for the U.S. Pavillion in Moscow, and introduced the geodesic skybreak bubble of steel and plexiglas at Expo '67 in Canada. On Wednesday, January 11, Joyce Cutler Shaw will speak in the Art and Artists lecture series, which accompanies a three unit course taught by her since September on campus.

Recognized for her put.lic art works "Namewall" and the "We The People" sculpture project for the U.S. Capital, Ms. Shaw's multilevel works combine texts , images a nd objects.

Softball practice beginning Monday

After seeing his team get off to one of the best starts in a long time, head basketball coach Andy Gilmour is hoping to get his troops back on the winning track Saturday night following a hotly-contested 71-66 overtime loss to Fullerton Wednesday. It was the first defeat in 13 games for the Comets, who concluded preseason play with a 13-3 record , including the 12-game winning streak. Palomar will open Mission Conference action tomorrow against Chaffey in a Dome affair beginning at 8 p.m. Fullerton was whistled for only two fouls in the second half of regulation play, which ended 60-60, and received no foul calls in the overtime period, despite no change in game strategy. "You have to adjust to the officiating on the road, and we just didn 't adjust," said Gilmour. "I'm hoping we can play with the same intensity Saturday as we did during the winning streak." Palomar, which has averaged 76.2 points in 15 games, was led Wednesday by forward Donnie Joy, who hit nine of 11 from the floor for 22 points. Joy, who won the Most Valuable Player Trophy for the Palomar Holiday Tournament and is leading the team in scoring with 13.5 points per game, will be joined by either Kevin Paulson , another All-Tourney selection who has averaged 7.6 per game, or Mo Romain (5.8) at the starting forward spots Saturday. They will be joined by Marcus Hays (12.8 and 18 points Wednesday) and Jerry Haynal (7 .2) at the guard positions, and Anthony Crane (9.8) at center. Substitutes have played an important part of the season so far, as Mike Babin and Mike Whalen have played well for Crane, who is still hampered by a thigh injury. ScrapPY Hamilton and Ronnie Hicks have performed admirably off the bench as guards, as did Bill Doremus before he was injured in a victory over Mesa. After taking the championship at the Cuesta Tournament with three victories prior to vacation , the Comets were scheduled to meet the U.S. C . junior varsity in los Angeles. But the university dropped its JV program and the game was recorded as a forfeit victory. Following a 15-day la yoff, Palomar notched a 67-64 win over Rio Hondo on the road before returning home to blast Mesa two days before Christmas, 103-73. l<1ve players scored in double figures against Mesa , a nd the team connected on 63 per cent of its field-goal attempts as the Comets surpassed the century mark for the second time in improving to 9¡¡2. Team play, hot shooting and excellent depth spelled ch ampionship again for Gilmour's cagers in their own Holiday Tournament. Hays scored 21 pomts and a tenacious full-court press forced 11 Antelope Valley turnovers in the first five minutes as the Comets cruised to a 101-83 victory in the

Palomar trailed, 60-59, with less than five minutes remaining , but Crane and Romain went to work un derneath a nd the Comets connected on 10 of 12 free throws in the final 2:22 to pull it out. Paulson came off the bench to hit seven of eight from the floor for a season-high 18 points. Facing North County rival MiraCosta in the ch ampionship game, a large Dome crowd saw the full-court press stymie the Spartans again as the Comets won their 12th straigh t, 100-87. Joy led the way, hittin g on nin e of 11 both from the fl oor a nd the line fo r a season-high 27 points.

Joy scored 57 points in the three gam es and was named Most Valuable Player of the tourney for his efforts. Paulson was a lso named to the tourney team after scoring 37 points , all in a substitute role.


Poloists finish year at 24-7 Nearly two months have passed since the Comets defeated Chaffey in their final game 12-10, to round out the season with a perfect 12-0 conference record. For the Comets, it was a year for breaking records. Besides finishing 12-0, the Comets posted 24 wins overall setting a new school record. 361 goals scores by the locals also set a new school record.
