Architectural problems force changes By Pauline Repard
Reprinted from the San Marcos Courier If you're in charge of someone who makes a mistake , s hould you be held responsible for the correction? More specifical ly, if you were the architect who plan¡ned every building at Pa lo m ar, and severa l construction errors were found . including the collapse of part of a ceilingwou ld you consider yourse lf at fault? Who wou ld you blam e if you were let go after an air condi ti oning sys tem was incorrect ly installed so tbat it was too nois y? If interior doors were wrong ly put on the outside of a buildin g, and ruined in bad weather; if solar heating connectors blew up and buildings flooded? That, essentia ll y, was the dilemma facing the college board of tru stees when they decided to pull their architect off a ll future jobs, including a $5 million library well
advanced in th e design s ta ge. The arch itect in question, the San Diego firm o f Paderewski , Dean, Albrecht and Stevenson , doesn 't think it was fair. After alL firm president Richard Albrecht pointed out, it was the subcontractors whi h mad e the mistakes , not him . For 25 years, Albrecht said, his company has had a good relationship with Palomar College, havin g been in on the very first master play. Tak in g one point, the theater ceiling coll apse, Albrecht sa id he re li ed on the contractor (M.H . Go lden) for engineering and selecting subcon tractors. It was a plasterer who mixed th e wrong material that led to two five-foot by six-foot chunks of ce ili ng falling five months ago. " Golden is paying for it, under protes t, because there had been students up there walking on th e cei ling (in the attic)," Albrecht said , adding that the subcontractor went bankrupt after the job.
"The co ll ege is losing out on that - they can't use the theater until it 's fixed. But to blame us for it is to miss the point. " But college President Omar Scheidt doesn't see it that way. " For them to say it was the subcontractor, well, we don't care. They ' re responsible, as our agent, as construction managers ," Scheidt said. " If a subcontractor isn ' t doing the right job, the architect has a duty to do it right." He added, " We hire the arc hit ect a t a fair rate of dollars , and rely on their expertise." Albrecht clarifi es that his firm was not fired; the decision to part company was mutual he said. "The board was aware of our difficulties, and asked us if we would be comfortable continuing with the job . It's not pleasant to be in an adversarial position," Albrecht sa id. "We wou ld have finished the (library) job to save the college some money. " College officia ls wanted some changes
Campus crime reports THE show steady increase Palomar College
By Marilou Genereaux "The first step in dealing with crime is reportjng that crime with reportable information," said John Kratt, head of the Campus Patrol and criminal justice instructor. Kratt estimates that "only ten percent of actual incidents are reported in the community-at-large and on the campus." On a wall in the patrol office is a map with various colored pins showing what kind of crime violations have occurred and where. So far this year there have been two felonious assaults and one simple assault.. over a dozen petty thefts and auto burglaries and many cases of disturbances and malicious mischief. Also reported have been traffic collisions and reckless driving. Incidences that are reported or observed by patrol members are first recorded in the student patrol member's log as to time and place. Also recorded in the log are the rounds that the patrol member makes, accounting for his full time on duty. Various members are on duty from 7 a .m . to 10 p.m. To assist in investigating reports the patrol uses the uniform standard report form i.n order to quickly, concisely and accurately record all pertinent information that has been received. These forms are the same as used by most law enforcement agencies. They are used on campus so that necessary information can be turned over to the proper authorities. All crime reports are then turned over to the Sheri-ffs Department. Those involving campus violations are given to Dean J . Frank Hankins for disposition of the cases. Superinten-

dent Omar Scheidt a lso receives a duplicate of all reports. Supplementing the Ca mpus Patrol is the uniform ed security guard on contract from Wells Fargo. He works under thP Superintendent of Building a nd Grounds , Bill Eddy. Nights, weekends a nd holidays he checks the campus to make sure doors are locked . proper lights are on and is on the lookout for any unauthorized activity . Other campuse:;; s u ch as Saddleback. Grossmont, Southwestern and the San Diego City School System maintain security with a UniformPdCampusPolice. The police are partoftheschool staff who meet police offi.cprs standard of training. They can do anything that an officer on the street can do with the full authority that a municipal police force providPs. Kratt says. " I would recommend a college Campus Safpty Officer who was principally concerned with the preservation of public safety on the campus. The safety officer should perform related safety programs and enforce laws on campus without requiring the servicps and resources of the Sheriffs DPpartment." Recently a sub-committee under the direction of Bob Jackson , coordinator of public services, was formed to study the approach Palomar should t.akP in dealing with public safety on thP campus. One recommendation Jackson has made is that until the committee completes its study, "students should use the Campus Patrol Office as a central office for reporting all illegal activity." Incidences involving crimes against persons or property, or acts of public disturbance are reportablP crimes. The green building at the end of the track, toward the fr ont of the campus is the Campus Patrol office. Members of the patrol on duty are available to investigate complaints and assist where needed. Involvement with crime procedure is not the patrol's only function. As uniformed perÂŤonnPl they represent an authority on campus that a lso serves the campus community by giving aid. This is most obvious in the late afternoon when there h as been a foggy morning and headlights have bPPn left on . Both students' and staffs dead batteries are jumped. as many as 25 to 30 in one day. Parking violation:;; citations are also given. "ThP value system behind permit parking is to train violators in rPsponsibl e citizenship," explains Kratt. Kratt sees the need at Palomar for students to "know where to report incidents, and be instilled with an attitude of reporting comparably to a neighborhood watch program ." As a beginning. "the Patrol office accepts reportablP incidents as a central place for reporting. "

On November 12, tru stees voted to terminate the 1977 contract with Albrecht. At Scheidt's recommendation, they later hired Blu Rock and Partners o f Newport Beach. Scheidt said Blu Rock built Cypress Co ll ege in Los Angeles County, where he worked for seven years. " I h ave confidence in them , and I didn ' t have time for a bi g searc h (for a ny other firm)," Scheidt said, noting Blue Rock was hired just for the librar y co ntra t. Where the college would hav e paid Albrecht about $150,000 to finish the job, Scheidt said Blue Rock may cost abo ut $140,000.

Five arrests end auto burglary spree A car theft ring rPsponsible for $250,000 in h eists targeting parked cars at Palomar has been broken up by detectives with fivp arrests. Sheriffs detectives Donn Witt and Russ Oliver said thP arrests, which were aided by Escondido Police, ended a spree of auto burglaries and car thefts that bega n last Jun e. Witt said the five suspects are all egedly responsi hlP for some 30 car thefts a lone plus dozPns ofbreak-ins and thefts of car radios and various a uto parts. Witt said detectives are going over four high-performance cars that
were seized sin cp the first a rrest December 22. HP sa id the cars were put together ent.irPly with stolen parts and are worth collPctively as much as $40.000. Witt said authoritip:;; also have five other cars th at arp :;;tripped a nd know th e locations of 10 others and four motorcycles. All five of thosP arrested were from Escondido. He said two are 19 years old , two are 18 and one is 17. Witt said the four cars now h eld by the sheriffs detectives are a Corvette, a Plymouth Roadrunner, a Datsun sport.scar and a "superstock" pickup truck.
The arrests came after the detectives armed with a search warrant raided a storage locker in San Marcos last week. Information developed by the detectives after the seizure of auto parts at the storage shed led to the arrests of the remaining four suspects who are charged with several counts of grand theft, burglary, auto theft, possession of stolen property. criminal conspiracy and one count of battery, Witt said. Witt asked that anyone who may have been the victim of a theft at Palomar parking lot contact either him or Oliver at. thP Vista sheriffs substation.
Student reports early morning assault A feloniou s assault against a senior student. Frances Wood, occ urr ed th e day before th e Thanksgiving WPPkPnd. This has been one of a n urn bPr of occurrences during the lattPr part of the semester. While Ms. Wood was in the ladies restroom in the sciPnce building around 6:30 a.m .. a man entered.

She h opes h er own traumatic experiencp will be a warning to other womPn who arrive on campus early in thP morning when only custodians are on duty . She said , "I won'tcome again that early in the morning , custodians can't keep track of everybody on cam pus." Wood said that she would like to see security stepped up in the early morning and late evening hours, when women are most vulnerable to attack.
Fall semester '80 in retrospect . By Rick Bell The fall semester found new co-editors at the reins of Thr Telescope, as well as a new program director at KSM and new ASG legislators. 1980 also produced a record number of students enrolling at Palomar, a staggering 18,000 people. Newly elected president William Nelson stressed ethics in the upcoming election, wanting to build up credibility. The election was credible enough, with seventeen candidates vying for office, and just slight ly more voters (635 out of 18,000 students) s howing up to vote.

LETTER TO THE EDITOR Editor: A nation without confidence in its institutions is a nation adrift. We can no longer blind ourselves to the fact that concentrated econom ic power has become reckless , ruthless and coercive as concentrated political power. We can no longer attack subsidies for the poor while supporting even greater subsidies for the rich. We can no longer speak of protective freedom in the world by turning the wor ld into protective hamlets. We can no longer oppose tyranny by emu lating it. We cannot speak of individual freedom and free communities self-reliance and self responsibility while honoring the assembly line, promoting demolition, and making a fetish of commodi ti es . We cannot speak of honest work while honest working people are ali enated from that work and treated as mere extensions of their machines. We cannot attack the abuses of arrogant union leaders, while permitting the abuses of arrogant industrial and business leaders . We cannot speak. of a land of liberty and a national security state in the same breath . We must defend freedom at home if we are ever to have freedom in the world . We cannot speak of a sweet land of liberty when the very land is soured by the greed of those who turn the landscape into rea l estate, who turn the rivers into open sewers, who see in everythin g nothing but a dollar in process.

MOVIE REVIEW
'Elephant Man' -film of beauty By Michael Feigin What is ugliness? The fine line between hid eo usness and refinement are utilized in director David Lynch's ("Eraserhead") newest movie "The Elephant Man". Filmed artistically in black and white, perfectly capturing the story's time period and surrea listic. mood. It reflects man's darker side in the mirror of the deformed "John Merrick". John Hurt does a superb job as the beauty locked inside the beast. Anthony Hopkins, as the doctor ~ho gets Merrick out of the freak shows and into his hospita l for life, under plays his role. Long after the viewer has gotten over Merrick's ugliness, he identifies or actually feels his pain. There is a scene where Hopkins is reunited with the recently abducted and tortured Merrick. The audience is so submerged with emotion, but Hopkins is so det-
ached, it takes away from the impact. Women cannot look at The -Elephant man without screaming in terror. The doctor then introduces him to his already prepared wife. She very reservedly says "hello". and offers him tea. He gets too choked up to speak, making strange gurglin g sounds , causing her to be a bit frightened, "I'm s . . . s .. . so s ... sorry," he finally manages, b . .. b .. . but I've never been greeted so warmly by a lovely lady." She and the theatergoers are very moved. What a wonderful and sensitive person . The audience leaves the theater in silence after viewing a painfully introspective film about human nature. Only one woman is heard to whisper, "Everyone's so quiet." The movie makes you wonder who and what is truly beautiful. Perhaps "The Elephant Man" is the ugliest beauty a person could ever encounter.
A fresh new day, a brand new year. It is as if the page of a huge Book of Life has been turned and here we are, all the mistakes and sad events of the past are gone forever. Hopefully, the lessons are learned. The door is closed . We have only today- and a wonderful, untouched new year ahead to color as we will. It is entirely up to each one of us to decide how we will live that year and meet each day. It is easy to blame others; the government, other nations of people, when things go wrong, but much of our success or failure is entirely up to us. First, it is important to get off to a very good start as one might prepare for a marathon. How can anyone become so mesmerized by the idol Bacchus as to think he must first worship at his altar and so imbibe while celebrating as the old year passes into the new, that he is unable to see that fresh new sunrise? Who in that condition could expect to win a marathonor even get off to a good start? What a waste of time, money, energy and, yea, the expected toll of innocent lives. Why not 'prepare for that grand changeover from the old to the new by getting everything in our world completely organized, disposing of all unneeded baggage weighing us down, and clear the decks of all unfinished projects? Now is the moment to break out of any unpleasant molds we may have gotten ourse lves into. Resolutions don't seem to help much ; the enthusiasm of the season creates them , but settling back into the postholiday routines, we soon forget them as they slip through our fingers . What we really need to do as this giant page turns to present us with a pristine new leaf, unmarred , unscheduled, is to pledge to ourselves to greet each new day as it comes with this : "I PROMISE TO DO EVERYTHING I CAN TO MAKE TODAY EVEN BETTER THAN YESTERDAY." It is renewed daily and strengthens us, hour by hour. Then , when this cycle draws to a close, we can look back with pride and say, "That was a good year. I really tried. I did my best many times and next year is going to be even better!" HAPPY NEW YEAR!

MASON WINS $100 PRIZE
Art maior creates new logo Brenda Mason is $100 richer because of her entry in the Art Department's logo design contest. The Vista resident was the first place winner for a unique design that will be used on all official Art Department publications. $25 was awarded to James Burnett for second place and Kim Fraley for third. The contest, which was open to all Palomar art students, was conceived in an effort to promote a logo that would identify anything from the Art Department. Val Sanders, Art Department chairperson, explained that "we decided to seek a logo because we felt we had such diversity in our activities." The new logo will appear on all Art Department announcements,
mailings and at special events. The awards were donated by the Art and Ceramics Guild of Palomar College, which also sponsors the annual student arts and pottery sales. Jurors fur the contest were Art Department instructors Harry Bliss, Doug Durrant, James Hulbert, Everett Peck and Jim Saw. Mason, a full time art student and part time art assistant here, is a 1978 graduate of Vista High School where her oil painting of an owl won a first place in the Senior Art Show. The same painting received an honorable mention in the 1978 Carlsbad, Oceanside annual art exhibit. Mason will receive her A.A. in June and plans to attend the Art Center in Pasadena in the fall . After finishing school, she hopes to make
a career in illustration and design. Second place winner James Burnett is a graduate of San Diego State and now works as an artist for the San Diego Union. He is attending a class in ceramic sculpture here. Kim Fraley, a 1975 Vista High School graduate, also plans to transfer to the Art Center after she has earned her A.A. here. The logo will also be on all fliers and mail-outs used to promote the short term workshops that the Art Department developed for the first time during the fall semester. Beginning in February, the department will again offer a series of one unit or credit/no credit. workshops which will include: animal drawing, human anatomy. serigraphy (silk screen), off-loom weaving, figuremedia.
Concert hour series presents Incom e fax assistance fare to 'suit every taste' A special addition to the list of publicized events in the Palomar College concert hour series will take place January 14 at 11 a.m., when the Southwest Brass Quintet will perform in recital in the performance lab of the music complex. These five brilliant musicians from the Phoenix Symphony Orchestra will present a program with something to suit every taste. They will begin with Mendelssohn's "Scherzo op. 16" and will play music by Dierks, DuBois, Andre Previn, Ward-Steinman, J .S. Bach,
Prokoviev and Scott Joplin. Later in the day, the quintet will hold a workshop on brass technique and literature, open to high school and college brass players. This will take place from 3 to 5 p.m. in C-6, also in the music complex. Admission to both the recital and workshop is free-, though reservations for the workshop are requested because of limited space. For more information, phone the Palomar Music Department at 7441150 or 727-7529.
Modern Far East, Russian Imperialism offered in spring semester courses "History of the Modern Far East" (History 40), an elective of the Social Science Department is again being offered in the spring semester along with a new course entitled, "Russian Imperialism" (Political Science 15). Both classes will be taught by Dr. Roy "Pat" Archer whose Master's dissertation dealt with the conflict between the Chinese Communist and Nationalist Parties. "Russian Imperialism" will emphasize Soviet expansionism since World War II and look at the reaction of the world community and the United States in attempting
to contain Soviet Imperialism. The course is scheduled for 12 noon, MWF in P-18. "History of the Modern Far East" will examine the cultural, religious and political development in Eastern Asia since the First Opium War. Although the emphasis is on China, the recent histories of Korea, Japan and Vietnam are also presented. Reasons for U.S. involvement in the Korean and Vietnam Wars are analyzed. History 40 is scheduled at 9 a .m., MWF in P-18.

Kretowicz also worked with Lindsay Anderson on the "Singing Lesson," and helped in the production of "Willie Wonka and the Chocolate Factory." Kretowicz sees the documentary as a valid art form. as compared to the more popular feature film. "In Europe the documentary is alive and well. You pay the same price at the box-office, and they are as well attended as the feature films in America." But he acknowledges that television has given a new lease on the life of the documentary. "Harvest of Shame" reached a: much broader audience on the CBS affiliates, than it. would have at a movie theatre." He also cites another recent example, "Scared Straight" (1978). which dealt with juvenile delinquency. Kretowicz will be giving a class the spring semester showcasing strictly John Huston films.
is available Assistance to low income persons in preparing their income tax is being offered by the Volunteer Bureau Division of United Way of San Diego County, in cooperation with Internal Revenue Service (IRS), State Franchise Tax Board, and the American Association of Retired Persons. There are two different programs this year: V.I.T.A. - Volunteer Income Tax Assistance for low income persons, and T.C.A. -Tax Aid Counselling for the elderly ONLY for persons 60 years of age and older. Both programs begin February 1 and end April 15. Last year services were provided to more than 62,000 citizens.

GREEKS OF AMERICA
January lectures explore Mayan life The ancient Mayan civilization in Central America is among the most colorful and I east understood culture in our hemisphere. Palomar College is sponsoring three more lectures in a series in Rancho Bernardo during January which will shed some light on the Maya, then and now. The Maya have been called the "Greeks ofthe Americas" because of their extremely advanced civilization and ability to create superb art objects. Sculptures, wall paintings, ceramics and architectural achievements have been unearthed and examined by many archaeological expeditions, yet a veil of mystery surrounds these highly intelligent people who were far advanced in technj.cal knowledge as well as artistic a.blilty, a people who maintained a priestly class and practiced human sacrifice. "TheM aya of Guatemala" will be the focus of the January 16 lecture. George Lempart, well-known ex-
plorer, will show past and present examples of theM ayan culture, and will discuss the conquest of Guatemala together with many picturesque pyramids and other rmns. On January 23, Lempart will continue the Guatemala exploration, showing Guatemala City, the ruins of Antigua and Chichicastenango. The Mayan numbering systems and astronomical calculations will also be included. The final lecture on January 30 will deal with the "Great PostClassical Period of the Maya."The pyramid oft heM agiacian at U xmal, the ruins at Kabah, Sayil, Labna, Tulum, Chichen Itza will all be shown, and Lempart will conclude with a discussion of the social organization of May an life, then and now. For further information, contact the Palomar Department of Continuing Education at 744-1150 or 727-7529.

Sequoia N a tiona) Park, Yosemite, Big Sur, and Morro Bay will be the destination of Biology 99 students January 24 on a nine-day Biology 99 field trip. They will earn transferrable Biology credit for this experience. A fee of $50 will cover all expenses e_x cept food , including one night in cabins at Sequoia and three nights in Yosemite Lodge. The group will tent-camp in coastal redwoods and at Morro Bay, and will return to campus on Sunday, February 1. All transportation i13 provided. Any student interested in signing up for this field trip should see Dr. Gary Alderson in LS-5 or Dr. Nancy Jessop at AA-126 as soon as possible, since space on the trip is limited.
Paid job training is offered by Palomar through the San Diego Regional Educational Training Consortium (RETC\ in several program areas for eligible lowincome and handicapped students. Training in child care occupations, food services and auto body and fender repair provide the skills necessary to obtain entry-level jobs in these fields . Two courses in child care occupations cover various child development theories and involve students in observation and participation with children in a variety of child care facilities. Class work and field site training are coordinated so that students acquire the skills needed to work with young children. The foods service class is a com-
bination of lecture and lab, offering classroom instruction and hands-on experience. Students plan meals, shop, prepare food, and serve lunch two afternoons a. week to senior citizens in San Marcos. They learn the basic skills needed to work in the field of food preparation and handling. Upon completion, a certificate is awarded and assistance in locating related employment is provided. Eligibility for these paid training programs is determined by the MAAC agencies. Students who are interested in training and working in child care occupations. food services or auto body and fender repair, call Ruth Orner at the Palomar College ROP office, 744-7170 or 744-1150, extension 445 or 446

of the undocum_ented worker oozing throug h the roof and floor of our shacks. We try to make the conditions livable, but it's hard. Our on ly ot her choices are to leave for home, or seek work elsewhere." An o th er undocumented worker was Jorge, from Michoacan, Mexico. His dream is like many . He hopes that his sacrifices at age 23 will provide a better life for his wife and three children . He says h e appreciates what he ha s, thoug h it is clear that most Americans would consider his hovel an underst ateme nt of impoverished li ving condition s. " I work a minimum of 10 hours a day, six or seve n days a week depending on how much has to be done now. I am paid minimum, but it comes out much less after deductions for insurance and taxes .The fields have been sprayed and it's hell working in them. We live in shacks, handm ade from discarded plastic and cardboard crates used for packing crops. Conditions
are bad . There are rats and coyotes. Our clothing remains filthy. There are no restrooms. The on ly water we have is from irrigation pipes."
They don't like their workers taken away ." He feels his job is frustrating at times. ''I'm not enforcing the law. It's sor t of postponing it."
With the hopes of making a good wage, Jorge, like many, crossed the border with much personal risk. "I faced many dangers on the Mexican side of the border, from gangs during crossing, and fear of the "migra" (border patrol) who is well known among my friends for being brutal."
He said many of the undocumented workers call the border patrol the "green taxi" because of the frequency they get driven back to the border. H e tells a story about one man who sneaked across the border three times the same day. " I asked him why he doesn't try at night, and he explained his understandable fear of the border bandits. And in the same breath added, "One day, mi amigo, you'll be on vacation, then I'll make it across ."
After Sunday's raid by th e Border Patrol, "about 100 or more workers were taken out of here. In order to hide us, th e land owners moved us to other shacks just as bad or worse as the ones we were already li ving in. The next day most of the workers who were caught were back in the fie lds." Ray O'Conner, a young border patrol field officer feels there is much resentment on the part of the growers when they round up workers. "Let's say the growers aren't throwing kisses, especially at harvest time.
An undisclosed source wit h the Census Bureau who has been in many of the camps of North County, divulged that many growers would contact the Border Patrol just after the seasonal crop was picked without first paying the undocumented workers' salaries. On the same note, C h ris Acevedo, a Palomar student, w ho has been
in the camps seve ral tim es a nd has kept in tou ch with some of the workers, has been told th a t some of th e workers haven't been paid for more th a n six months . Considering th at most Americans refuse to do "s toop labor" the census bureau woma n feels, "W ithout the undocumented worker, a lo t of food wouldn't make it to our table." She feels, " Th e least th a t could be done is the sa nit a tion facilities should be improved. "Si nce we co nsu m e th e food these workers touc h and beca use th ey too are human beings, it stands to reason that h ea lth ca re should be a part of th e process. " I think people should begin to bridge the gap between Latin America and the U.S .," sa id the cens u s woma n . "We double our popu la ti on every 116 years, while Mexico doubles hers every 2Cl years. Approximately 48% of the total population of the bord e r states is of Hispanic descent or or ig in. "By 1990 th e Anglo will no lo nger be a majority. It's about time we begi n to learn Span ish and conf ront a nd resolve our major cu ltural differences hea d o n. "

for repairs of the theatre ceiling. College business a dministrator John Schettler expl ained tha t gypsum and cement were used to form the ceiling. but the two chemically repell each other. Layer s had separated half an inch in some places. Schettler said. He and Scheidt agreed with Albrecht that students had been walking on the ceiling top. It is the only way to reach lightbulbs and loudspeakers in the theater, but, as with all plastered ceilings, walking should be done on support beams. "It was a stupid design," Scheidt said. "The engineering was bad. We were told the problem would exist even with new plaster ."
The history of animation from cave drawings. Greek Art and early animation machines will be thoroughly covered . There will be a discussion of the early animation pioneers: Muybridge , Georges Melies , Winsor McKay , Max Fliescher and . of course, the master of animation. Walt Disney. The concepts and basic mechanics of film animatjon will cover the camera, how it works and the proper care of lights and other equipment. Small groups of three to five members will then be given different assignments. such as: Idea, Selection of technique, Script-writing, Story board , Director and Camera. Their special projects will consist of: Collage Animation/Kinestasis where students will learn to select story and idea as well as technique. They will be using construction paper. cut out photos and original photos. Three Dimensional Animation where the students will work with clay, wire armature and other assignments. Cycle Animation on paper/ cell on background where students will develop idea, action, story boarding, character animation, background and camera. Pe~k, a resident of Encinitas, was born m San Diego, obtained his A.A. degree at Palomar and his B.A. at California State University at Long Beach. He is a professional illustrator and has taught at Palomar on and off for the past six years. This semester he is teaching Commercial Art Fundamentals, Media/Techniques in Commercial Art and Commercial Portfolio.

The new subcontractor has torn out the old metal mesh used as backing to the plaster and is putting EVERETT PECK in new mesh, called lath.

that a return air grill wasn't working, and that the main air conditioning unit was not installed as shown in drawings. "We're not sure if it was our fault, but we're he ginning to believe it was not," A, recht said, although Scheidt said shop drawings of the system did not meet specifications shown in original architectual plans. Albrecht added that he didn't think his firm at fault for the failure of the theater doors to stand up to weather beating. The doors were replaced a third time before the problem was correctd. "We don't see that as our r esponsibility," Albrecht said. "The doors were tested to see if they met specifications, and they were not specified to us as weather-proof. "My guess is that the contractor has top responsibility, although he probably got the doors from a subcontractor who used suppies from someone else. "Maybe the glue-maker said the glue was weather-proof when it wasn't. We get the blame." Yet another difficulty arose over a solar heating unit built for the college swimming pool. "A heat-exchange unit was put in wrong, and didn't work," Scheidt explained. "It still doesn't work, the connectors blow up. "I've been here 3 1/ 2 years, and the system was installed a year before that. It has never worked more than 24 hours at once. "We say you should stand behind your product. You shouldn't get into a project if you don't know what you're doing. Albrecht said the pool was two years old when they were asked to step in and install solar panels. He said, technically, the work should be designed by mechanical engineers, not architects.
"We did it, though, and picked a recognized expert to design it," he said. "It worked well for a month, then began to corrode. "Solar heating was less understood then than now. The panels .. . the whole system was in doubt. The manufacturer replaced the panels. and now the system is down because of leaks. "The college seems to allude that we aren't trying to fix it, but that isn't true." Albrecht said that, while the original project cost $50,000, the firm has spent another $60,000 on repairs at no expense to Palomar. Albrecht said he did not believe his side of the story had been presented to the trustees. He and his staff did have chances to explain matters to the board, "But apparently we weren't convincing," he said. He added that years ago, when the theater was first designed, the college asked to get back $20 000 paid to the architect in fees. There were not enough funds to start building, and, though the contract said Albre~ht was due the money, they gave 1t back to help out. "We never got it back,"he said. "Now the board says 'That was before our time.'" Scheidt said the same thing adding that he knew of the con: troversy but nothing about the details. Albrecht said he has never run into these kinds 'problems with any other job his company has done. In 31 years of business with the U.S. Navy, Port of San Diego and other clients, no one has had such major complaints, he said. "The college board doesn't recognize all the good work we've done now that problems have come up," he said. For Scheidt's part, he had still more items on a list of complaints. When it rains, water comes up in the floors of the women's shower room at the pool, he said. Also, water flood~ the handball courts, and the chem1stry department's chemical storage basement has flooded.

INSTRU'CTOR SURVEYS PRESIDENT-ELECT
Reagan symbolizes 'stability, iustice' By Richard Schatzman Dr. Michael Newbrough, instructor of American and world politics, is one man who didn't vote against Jimmy Carter, but very definitely voted for Ronald Reagan. Dr. Newbrough feels that President-elect Ronald Reagan is not a protagonist of the "guns and butter" method of executing the Constitution . He feels he will not plunge us into another war. "Reagan has an almost intuitive knowledge of the necessities of international politics. He understands what most international political observers have always known , namely : Peace or deterrence is based on strength. "Our former President's more naive approach of wishful thinking is consequently inconsistent with the rest of the world 's politics, namely Russia 's. Good intentions don't prevent a war. The most important job of the President in the 1980's will be in the realm of international politics - survival must be our key priority." Newbrough admits that Ronald Reagan is not among the most intelligent men elected to the office of President, but thinks that intelligence doesn't necessarily make the best choice for a leader. " A key to a great executive is his choice of advisors. Reagan's
choice of Bush as a running mate and the hbpeful reliance upon Henry Kissinger is excellent. As governor of California he used high caliber advisors. Surely as President he'll do likewi se ." Concerning Reagan's conservatism, Newbrough concedes with a smile, "As a university graduate student, I was an antiReagan liberal, and I viewed him as 'establishment.' J think Reagan and I have both matured. Both he and I are less dogmatic, less ideological and definitely more flexible ." As for Carter's warning before the election that Reagan will divide the country up into blacks and whites , rich and poor ,Jew and Catholic, etc., he thinks that's nonsense. "Reagan's too pragmatic a politician for that . He comes from too much of a hard-core middle of the road Republican background . His agreement to prevent New York's financial crisis, his strong favor of the socia l security system, though he wants it revamped, disproves"this. He seems to have become more flexible , and has admitted to have had changed his views. And certainly people change, grow wiser with time. " Many political observers see Reagan and what he stands for as a symbol for the new backlash of right wing conservatism now
participation of religious groups. It's a resurgence more than a revival. It's a desire for stability after the rapid disintegration of order and justice, and family structure in America . He attributes the new conservatism to "the whole country's disillusionment with liberal idealism. The idea that through big government We can end poverty and cure social ills with utopian plans for reform has soured" Newbrough doesn't think it fair to link Nixon and the Watergate scandal with the Republican Party. "Watergate was more of an exception than a rule. It was just as shameful and embarassing to them as everyone else."
MICHAEL NEWBROUGH
spreading across all America. Newbrough agrees, "There is an increasing amount of
Newbrough doesn't see Reagan's age of 69 as a problem. "I never thought chronological age had much to do with a person's responsibilities. It's arbitrary. I think Reagan is in better healtth and more alert than most men twenty years younger. He keeps himself in great shape by horseback riding on his ranch , and his physician in Los Angeles has ·recently confirmed his bill of good health ."
Fall semester seen in retrospect (Continued from page 2)
Carrie McCabe writing in a Telescope editorial. Apathy was hardly the word for the elections on campus. Not quite five per cent made it to the Palomar polls. Black Student Alliance elected their new officers, naming John Hare as president, Timothy Grace as VP, Patricia Wing as secretary and Sandra Smith as the new treasurer. BSA and MEChA co-sponsored a Halloween dance on October 31st, which over 400 people attended. The Music Department was relatively quiet, mainly because the Palomar Theatre's ceiling began to crumble .. Poor architecture is to blame for that, and hopefully the problem will be rectified by mid1981. One outstanding performance that did take place in the old performance lab was Kathleen O'Brien's mezzo-soprano program. Palomar College Night started up at the Distillery East in Escondido. The event was co-sponsored by the ASG and Licorice Pizza Records. Palomar Night probably would not have gotten off the ground without the hard work and dedication of · ASG legislator Chris Acevedo. Top local acts like 20/ 20, the Penetrators and Bratz provided great music and an atmosphere that all the students enjoyed. November began with the Presidential election, and although
