Live music, dancing, and an array of special effects invade the Planetarium next week during a special series of five free presentations entitled "Flight." A product of Air Force Major N orman Sauvage, " Flight" is an aerospace multim edia show that d epicts the history of aviation from ancient "fowls in the air" through the sweeping space age psyched eli a. Picture, if you can, the s proutings of 16 slide a nd motion picture projectors, on-again-off-again kaleidoscoping the huge Planetarium dome with a historical montage of subtle flight images, while leotard-clad dancers s1mulating the motion of a bird are bathed in stop action strobes. Then add little girls dressed in Chinese costumes with incense wafting thro ugh the room; moon rocks growing to encompass the dome in blazing color; and live television featuring the audience. If this is beginning to grip your mind, consider stewardesses serving food and coffee; lunar walkers waltzing overhead while music from the most traditional to the most modern plays, sometimes at the same time. Although Maj. Sauvage has constantly updated his piece of art, this remains a fair depiction of"Flight." " We incorporated new films, light effects, musical changes, improved television, radio communications, revised choreography and visual script changes which enhanced an already vital show," explains Sauvage. " The enthusiastic responses we' ve received are most rewarding for the hundreds of people who have worked so hard to make the show a success." No reservations are needed for any of the fiv e performances; Wednesday , March 15 at 7:15 and 8:30 p.m. , and Friday , March 17 at noon , 7:15 and 8:30p. m .

in connection with an incident that took place two years ago. Burns and two others have previously been indicted by the Pueblo County grand jury on these charges, but both were thrown out of co urt on technicalities. Burns, who says that the charges against him are "groundless", received college staff support at the February board meeting. After the Board met in executive session they emerged with a statement in support of Bums, saying: " The Boar d of Palomar College is fully cognizant of the charges alleged against Dr. Bur ns. We approved a ppointment of Dr. B urns last J uly based upon the recommendations of two college comm ittees which fo und hi m to possess exceptio n al qualificatons for th e position. "We have leamed nothing t h at wo uld lead us to believe that Dr. B urns is n ot f u lly qu alified a nd able to do his job; i n fact, h is performance at Palomar has been outstanding He has our fullest support." Burns commented that he felt overwhelmed with the supportive response from staff members and student the last few weeks. He also feels that the matter will soon be disposed of without involving him further. Burns went on to say that the Pueblo District Attorney, Joseph LaSavio, has himself been indicted for malfeasance of office and has been censured by the Pueblo bar for misuse of the grand jury system and harrassment of citizens. LaSavio is presently up for recall as well. LaSavio did not deny the charges, but replied that he (LaSavio) had had few run-ins with some people, who as a result wanted to see him out of office.

The devslfstion of war By Mike Johnson Under siege. Battle-weary troops had already positioned sand bags at key locations across the camp. Civilians suffered most from the constant bombardment, with draining spirits and drowning ambitions. Yet, before the first shower of destruction, there were those who cried for war. Even when the countryside seemed most serene and secure, people almost begged for the torrents of. devastation that were soon to follow. War was good, they concluded, and their appetites became whetted for action. T h ere was even u nnatural in tervention before the war, by private meddlers who were paid by the government to bring it abou t . And when it came, the area was u nder siege. . Trenches were dug as ou tdoor activity became too dangerous. Age old battle gear was salvaged from the closet and an arsenal of protection became available once again on t h e open market. Work had to continue as usual, or else the opposing war machine would swell to victory. The odds were against us as the environment broke down under the continu al aerial attack. Those who ventured outdoors for work or pleasure became the real victims, second only to those who lost property and possessions. Individuals confined to their homes for safety became mentallv afflicted by the monotonous strain of battle. Some had never seen life so bad before. Depression grew more severe as the enemy demolished our forces on fronts across the country, offering neither mercy nor quarter. It wa& war to be sure, and people were once again at the mercy of nature and time. The rain fell.

FEE & CO. BACK IN FORM
The Tubes invade the Fox By R ick Hoff It is doubtful that San Diego's plush Fox Theater had ever seen anything like it. Back in form for their fourth Southern California tour performance were The Tubes, the zaniest, most outrageous, and above all, most entertaining band of rockers the United States has produced. Their show (and show is an understatement) February 19 at the Fox was so captivating, that trying to put its effect into words is virtually impossible. This is a group that must be experienced. The Tubes' fourth and latest album, What Do You Want From Liue, captures a bit of the fun , but the elpee is merely a soundtrack to remember by.
..,c==-o_n_c_e-rt.,....-;R=-e-v-i=-e-wSome critics have classified The Tubes as a punk-rock group , but this is only a fraction of the group's satiric coverage. They are a variety show. Their message: enjoy! Since their genesis in San Francisco, their home base, The Tubes have grown in number and popularity, although the band has still yet to make a large impact on U.S. record sales. There are some 30 people involved in the program who actually take the stage in one form or another, and God knows how many more lurk be 1 ¡nd the scenes of this extravaganza. There are seven musicians: William Spooner and Roger Steen on guitars; Rick Anderson on bass; Vince Welnick on keyboards; Michael Cotten on synthesizers; and Prairie Prince and Mingo Le .vis on drums and percussion. There's also the skimpily-attired Ernest Borgnine dancers (as announced) , headed by the luscious Re Styles. There's numero us other skin-tight suited space people, terrorist guerrillas, and seduction worshipers. Not to mention props without end, including live TV. And then there's Fee. Fee is Fee Waybill, or Johnny Bugger, or Mickey Spillane, or Fidel Castro, or his
n u mber-one character: the infamous glitterrock star, Quay Lewd. The show is centered around Waybill and his characters. A former equipment manager for another band, Waybill is now living his and everybody else's fantasies on the stage. He is an A-1 performer with more A-1 performers backing him up. He doesn't have to have magic fingers or a Freddie Mercury voice. What he has is an appreciation ofbeing different, and that's something the rock business has needed for a long time. The Tubes are sticking to the smaller theaters, although they were part of an Anaheim Stadium show featuring Alice Cooper last summer. The San Diego crowd enjoyed the act immensely, responding long and loud even after the house lights came on. Even so, The Tubes don't sell a lot of records in our country. The biggest breakthrough has come in England, home of the abnormal in rock musicianship. Two Tubes singles hav e made the top 20 there, and in Australia, their second album, Young And Rich, reached number six on the charts. Waybill guesses that the reason for the overseas succes¡s because foreigners appreciate their "demented, diseased version of the U.S." The Tubes' show is a well-planned, highly organized package. After a medley of early hits , Fee takes the stage for two new songs, You Got Yours elf A Deal, and Show Me A R eason. Both so ngs highhght the guitar work of Steen and the biting synthesizer of Cotten . Then come the give-away antics of What Do You Want From Life? Taking a member of the audie1ce to the stage, Waybill (ala Monty Hall) offers her a simulated Indian beaver coat ("They don't hav.e beavers in India, so they have to simulate them," he says), not to m ention a giant instamatic camera, a lifetime s upply of7-Up, Coke and alcohol (re presented by giant bottles), or a (Continued on page 7)
ASG eandidates state views . l)!tE~Ia&ENT
VICE•tlaiE~IaENT Ra ch el Meltzer / Leona rd Schneda r You must h ave representatives in the ASG who have yo ur rights in mind. That means a ll of the students , d e partments, and organizations on campus. We know we are the people to do this. Who are we? Rachel Meltzer for President a nd L eon ard Schnedar for Vice President. And we want to make the ASG an effective organization that is responsive to your needs . We are tired of a government that spends it's time arguing between blocks and rival factions. It's time to .accept every student's equality! Women, men. Blacks, Chicanos, whatever your philosophical views are, we are all here to get the most of what Palomar has to offer. We want a positive experience that will be
worth something in the future. As studen ts , we d eri ve the sam e benefits from Palomar that yo u do. w e want to see changes that b enefit everyone. Equal and fair allocations of funds, activities that represent student interests, more effective communication between students and the administration, and an open outlook towards changes that are necessary to accomplish these goals are the issues that need to be dealt with. Palomar needs a booster shot to stimulate the social and educational environment. Your vote tor us IS 1n your own interest. Remember Rachel Meltzer for President and Leonard Schnedar for VicePresident when you cast your vote.
Kathy Martin Most studpnts of Palomar College are aware of thP existence of ASG. however. many do not realize its importance. The ASG is directly responsible for allocating necessary funds for student organizations. acting as a liason between the students and the administration, and providing an active voice to the administration and community to the students. A number of facts led me to be a candidate for student legislature. I do not represent an "elite few," and
Grace Chela Francisco I have been a student at Palomar for three yea rs and feel quite familiar with its facilities and progra ms. My basic concern in running for ASG Legislature is the prom otion of unity among the v a ri o u s st ud e nt c lub s and organizations. I feel that the clubs s h oul d m a ke a solid effort to arrange low-cost, interesting and educational activiti es to inc lud e a greater number of students. Among these could b e assembli es, co n ce rts , dances, speakers, workshops and c ultural events. I a lso feel ASG should stron gly e n courage st ud e nt input and opinions~ o n "wh'a'Cactivities they 'd like to see initiated. Another main con cern is greater safety in terms of longer bus h ours , crosswalks, str eet access a nd parking facilities. With much cooperation and unity , I b elieve Palomar ASG a nd student body as a wh ole can accomplish a lot towards furthering an ecologically, intellectu a ll y, politically and spiritually a ware learning environment.
thus I. would represent a more just and responsive philosophy than those who make up the present legislaturP. I would represent students more effectivelv and efficiently than the- current legislature. as I would attend all legislative meetings; a turn-around from past legislators. Finally, I feel I could better serve the purpose of representative student government by taking the time to learn the intricacies of ASG that I have listed above.
Edwin Estes, Jr. The fundame ntal as pect or fo undation that our governm ent rests on is represen t?tion by elected officials. It is important to hav e q u alified r epresentatives in a ny society too large to have participation by all members of t h at society. This is espec ially true at Palomar. Palom a r as a learning institution h as a prim a ry respon sibility to educate its students. Student governm ent's role in this process is to see that the stude nts' rights are n ot ignored. Bei n g involved with ASG last year a nd curre ntl y servin g as C hairman of th e Student Legislature, I a m d edicated to the protection of student rig hts. Some candida tes will campaig n on the issue of m or e ac tivities for students. While this is a vital aspect of college life it is importa nt n ot to igno re the primary r esponsibility of ASG protection of students' rights. This year we have had more acti vities for s tudents than ever b efor e. If re-elected I plan to stre,ngthen ASG in volvement in b oth activities a nd student rights . With yo ur help we can acco mplish both of these goals.
Andrew Wynne I a m And y Wynn e, a ca ndidate for the offi ce of A ssociated Student Govern m ent Presid ent h ere at Palom ar. I am currentl y the President of the Associated Stud ent Government, and would like very much to s h ow yo u as students h ere, that I will uphold the standards I set for myself last year as Vice-President of Palomar's Student Government. My campaign platform involves many issues s uch as: 1) Parking The traffic problems created by the inaccessability of parking around this campus is atrocious. Fender benders plague our students whether entering· or leaving this campus. I would like to see the opening of Los Posas Roarl happen very soon, because, with the construction of the Amphitheater going on the present traffic situation will he hindered even more. ~l Financing of the California Commumty C'olleges- We have the only community college program in the United States where everyone is
g uara n teed fr ee access, a nd there a re a handful of peo ple who would like to see us lose tha t privilege. I a m referring to the J arvis-Gann Initiative which , if passed , would cau se a r educti o n in th e curre nt state property taxes from approximately 2.4% to 1% which , in turn, would c reate a cut in the operating budget of this campus by ap proximately $3 million. This deficit would have to be made up by massive c uts in programs and personnel or possibly charging tuition fees. We currently have an excellent community college system in California and I believe we should keep it that way. 3) Informed Active Participation -With this I am presenting an idea I have never really had the opportunity to relate before. I would like the students who feel they have a• complaint or grievance to approach me with these, because that is what this office is all about. Student Government is a tool that can be used by every student to accomplish things for themselves as well as fellow students.
Dave Sherman As a Judicial Advocate for the ASG this year, I have been privileged to see the inner workings of the student legislature. I have not been impressed by what I've seen. Plagued by problems of student apathy and stagnation, the legislature has lost much of its effectiveness, has failed to maintain cooperation among its members, and has represented special interests more often than representing the students. Because of my belief that these problems can be overcome, I have decided to run for stud ent legislator. I believe I would be quite capable of acting as student legislator. I

have had experience in student government on both the high school and the college level. as well as having an understanding and interest in the mechanics of government. I will not represent special interest groups, but all of the students of Palomar. I will always support anv organizations or activites that I feel benefit the student body. The problems of student governm e nt can be minimized with involvement of the students and the proper leadership.

Yet that's ex actl y wh a t m otiv a ted P a lom a r student Willi a m " Willie" Morga n to make his first skydive. "When I was in theN avy, all the guys in my barracks had made at least one jump. If you wanted .to fit in, there was nothing else you could do. It' s poor motivation for doing anything, those are the people who get hurt, sixty-year old grandmothers on a macho trip and wives who do it because their husbands do. They make poor students, just as I did." Willie knows. He broke a leg on his first landing. Since then he's improved a bit, having logged over eight hours of free fall time and participated in numerous record setting {ormation dives. ¡ His collection of coveted awards include: The Star Crest Soloist patch, given to those who have flown into a formation where seven others are present; The Night Star Crest Recipient award, held only by nine-hundred people at the time he earned it in helping set a world record in night tim e formation flying; and first place in the eight and sixteen man competitions a t Casa Grande Arizona.
form ation s ky divi n g m ore th a n twenty years ago. T h e par tici pa n ts were picked from a li st of hun dreds of can didates by AI K rueger, wh ose creden tia ls include bein g captain of th e last World ch a mpion "S peed Star " team. Alon g with Bill Edw a rds, a vet er a n wit h o ver three-th ousand jumps in his logbooks, Krueger co-ordinated a nd orga nized the a ttempt over a six month p e riod. Team mem hers were selected on the basis of consistency. How many times was the candidate " there"? Ninety-eight-and-half % wouldn't do. With that as a standard, the odds were too great that more than one member would be " out", either too far above or too far below the formation. "The most important thing is to relax and be aware of what you-'re doing. When you're falling at ahundred to a-hundred- and -twenty miles per hour, you have to know how and when to come out of your dive - start 'flaring out', 'getting big', so you achieve the some velocity as the formation. Do it too late and you fly past." Willie and his airborne companions seem quite confident that they will succeed 11ext time, so confident they are already talking (Layout d esig n b y Ste v e Powe ll )
" Eight is a significant number in the sport. In the early days it was considered a very large forma tion ." But judging from the gleam in his eye when he displ a ys it, Willie's favorite must b e the Women 's Sta r Crest, an honor claimed b y few er than fifty men. H e earned it by flying into a circle of eight women who fell for him , and vice versa. The list goes on, but most n otable is his involvement with the Janua ry 1978 attempt to complete a fifty member formation , film footage of which recently stunned viewers on theToniteTV show. Theeffortfailed when one member over flew the formation by a matter of seconds. Willie speaks of the near miss as though it had been a complete success. "A lot of people were upset because we missed by such a hairline margin. They had to have that official recognition. To me it was still the biggest thing ever done in the sport." The previous record was a forty member link-up done in Oklahoma in July. Perhaps that's another reason Willie isn't overly concerned .. He would only be breaking a record he had helped set. Even so, he will be among the select fift~-man crew when the effort is repeated this month at nearby Lake Elsinore, the birthplace of

If such a n attempt is m a d e, yo u can wager Willie will be there. Before . that though, he's found a new challenge. Something called "sequential relative work" , in which a team does a series or " round" of maneuvers in the seventy seconds of free fall time available to them between twelve-thousand and twothousand feet. "The absence of body contact in some of the formations makes it more difficult. The fewer then urn ber of divers, the greater the number of maneuvers possible." As a member of an eight man team preparing for national competition, ¡ he spends most of his week-ends practicing the prescribed sets. If Willie and his teammates can find a sponsor and make their way through the preliminary events to the national finals in Indiana, they'll draw a round of ten of the twenty patterns they and the other teams have been practicing, and will be ev a luated by their ability to

It w as so m eth in g I h a d tra ined m yself to do u nti l it becam e refl exi ve, lik e pulling yo ur h a nd off a ho t stove." When Willi e a nd compa n y a re not involved in jumping , they settle into something more conventional, like riding a unic ycle on a tightrope for relaxation. " The tire blew out on the unicycle. What else could we do but take the rubber off and ride it on the tightrope we' d been walking? " Of course, what else could they ~o? Don' t get the idea that Willie Morgan is fearless . He has some very definite reservations about. flying. " Airplanes are dangerous. Why I'd rather be in free fall. People get hurt in those darn things. "

The Tubes come to town (continued from page 2) giant tube of toothp aste, or what's behind door number one, two or t hree. The s h ow then drifts into th e seduction r o utin es, featuring Fee a nd Re as doctor a nd nurse operating on each other during Don 't Touch Me There, jlnd then as leather-attired , whip-wielding lovers (lovers?) during Mondo Bondage. As Waybill then explains from his table at a seedy nightclub , life is a drag in Smoke, complete with eightfoot lo ng cigarettes. Following a brief crime spree of music from The Untouchables , Perry Mason and Dragne t, the band becomes a group of punk rockers known as Johnny Bugger a nd th e Dirt Boxes. During I Was A Punk Be fore You We re A Punk, Bugger is assaulted by a cok es pitting, insult-throwing s p ectator who a ppare ntl y did not p ay h eed to the lyri cs: I was a punk befo re yo u we re / You don 't believe m e, just step o utside and see m e./ I was a punk be fore yo u were! You want some action, I'll put yo ur ass in traction! Bugger m ops the stage with th e h eckler , daring for more to take him on. Nobody accepts, so Bugger a nd
the Boxes go into a rousing rendition of t h e old Beatie standard , I Saw H er Standing The re; only John Lennon n ever accompanied the song with a chain saw , as Bugger did. After an en tici n g five-minute drum solo by Prince, Way bill returns in his 18-inc h pl a tforms, blond wig and little else as the undescrib able Quay L ewd, who begins to sing Bo y Crazy, but cuts the song short to ask his musicians why they interrupted his back-stage affair with one of the dancers. After Stand Up And Shout, the fans scream for more, and they get it from the group's anthem, Whit e Punks On Dope, a song tha t has been banned by the BBC in England. Even a stack of amplifiers marked KILL which topple on Quay can 't stop the show as the capacity crowd stands and joins the performers in a roof-sh a king White Punks ch a nt.
