Three Judicial Advocates are nominated, elected, sworn in

KATHLEEN DUSEK

'Belgium' film airs next week "Belgium- Land of Two Peoples," a full-length color travel documentary, will be presented by community services at Palomar April17 at 1 and 3:30p.m. in P-32. The Kingdom of Belgium is a land of two peoples, the F1emish and the Walloons, each contributing their own distinctive culture and traditions to the nation as a whole. By living with both peoples in the cities and countryside, Kathleen Dusek has produced a sensitive film which deals with the diversities as well as the common ground of the two peoples. Although the nation is small with only 12,000 square miles, it is one of the most densely populated in Europe with more than 10,000,000 people. Tickets may be purchased at the door, $3 general and $2.50 for students and senior citizens. For more information on the travel films and other community service events, please call the Community Services Division, 744-1150 or 7277529, extension 2155.

James Smith Three Judicial Advocates (J.A.'s) were nominated, elected and sworn in during the March 16 meeting of theASG. Two of the JA's were elected by secret ballot, the third was elected by a show of hands after arriving late. ThenewJA'sareDavidManning, Jane Marshall and Terry Juker. Manning had been a J .A. last fall but resigned. Ar the same meeting JA Jon Gunning said, "If the new (Palomar) constitution is not ratified, then an illegal action had taken place." Gunning referred to action taken during the March 9 ASG meeting when the new constitution was put in effect with prior student ratification. This statment was not in the

minutes of the March 16 meeting as approved at the March 23 meeting, apparently because it was not made in the "Report of the Judicial Advocate." Gunning's formal letter of resignation was received at the March 23 meeting. JA David Manning then noted in his official report that "blantant, illegal lobbying" was taking place in the Student Union during constitutional elections. No specifics were given, except that the person lobbying continued after being asked to stop. JA Tracy Hightower's letter of resignation was also received at the March 23 meeting, leaving two JA positions open. Legislator Debbie Grottke was elected by a show of hands vote to the position of legislative chairper-

Constitution voted down Less than two percent of the student body defeated the new constitution by two votes before Easter. The proposed new constitution was defeated by a vote of 140 for and 138 against. Although the new constitution received the majority of votes it lacked the necessary three-fifths

majority needed to win. Students interested in running for an office in the Associated Student Government should pick up their applications as soon as possible. David Manning, judicial advocate, said "There will be a meeting of the candidates on April 11 at 12 noon in R-22. All candidates have to be represented by their presence or a ¡ stand in.

TV relay dish provides improved service for area By Chris Reynolds Students pass by it every day or park within yards ofitin the student parking lot on the west side of the campus. What is this huge grey dish with a hole in the center, decorated with a red lighting bolt? Erected during the Christmas break, it is the new head-end for the Los Angeles Times Mirror Cable Network. Ron Carso, head technician for T.M. cable, providedsomeinsightas to how it works and why Palomar College was chosen as the site. Based here primarily because of its central location, the "dish" collects television signals from T-M's antenna farm on Mt. Whitney and distributes them to San Marcos and the surrounding area. Improving service and reception, the Pay Cable Network hopes soon to provide viewers with 35 new stations. What benefits can the college hope to derive from such an arrangement? According to Ronald Page, director of television operations and productions, Palomar college had previously leased space on TimesMirror cable antenna farm on Mt. Whitney to broadcast educational television. Now, in exchange for free

.

San Marcos, CA

air space, the college has provided the cable network with a site for its new television receiver. Page gives some additional information about how educational T.V. works. Broadcasting on campus educational T.V. uses a low power signal to block out stations when transmissions are duplicated on two channels, ie, channels seven and eight. When this occurs, educational T.V. is carried on channel seven. Programs in classroom settings, live or taped, some of which are produced here, provide classes from General Biology and College Algebra to Rhythmical Exercises and the World of Fashion. These programs do more than just further the knowledge of the general public, however. They provide a way for home-bound students to further their education, or even earn a college degree, through credit transfer classes. It enables them to register by phone, get books through the mail and requires they be present on campus for exams or special lectures. "This new television receiver provides a valuable community service. Higher education as well as better entertainment at a minimal cost to the college seems quite a bargain," said Page.

son, the spot recently vacated by vice-president Andy Wright ASG bill17 appropriated $3,000 to purchase a wide screen T.V. and make an access door to the Student Union for a proposed student lounge. The government hopes to convert the Learning Resource Center into a student lounge that will feature cable T.V. and four or five table top video games. The LRC which is in the Student government building will be moved to another site. In other action the ASG voted support for State legistative bill AB 1185. This bill states that California's 107 community colleges will charge tuition and calls for reappor¡tionment of $95 million. Travel money was granted to legistator Debbie Grottke and Frances McKinney who will be attending an anti-tuition conference. Legislator Marina Huesias proposed a grant of $1,000 to charter a bus for an April 12 EOPS antituition rally in Sacramento, open to all Palomar students. ASG billll, proposed by Leonard Flagg, called for sectioning off the Student Union into smoking and non-smoking areas. This will be voted upon latter. $1,700 was delegated to an awards banquet committee trust fund. The committee is chaired by vice president Andy Wright. The awards banquet will honor scholarships winners, outstanding athletes, speech team members and faculty advisors. Phi Rho Ri speech team and the Alph Da Rho flying club were awarded $300 each so they may compete in out-of-state contests.

COMMENTARY

'new indicator's' purpose questioned Bill Tharp Something has arrived in the Student Union . It is a publication called "New Indicator". I confess to being for God, country, mom's apple pie and hotdogs, but I am not one to close my mind to different ideas . The first thing noticed was an article from draft register resister Ben Sasway and Michael March, a public resister. In this article one question stood out above all the rest. Question: "About three years ago there were 3,000 people out there (Revelle Plaza during an anti-draft march and rally) and today there were about 300 . What's going on? March: "The way I see college mentality, not just college mentality but most of the public, these people have to know the answers right now . They can not think far enough ahead, say four or five years . Their prime worry is,''If I don't make the beach today, will the surf be up tomorrow? " "I disagree with March, only a small percent of the public is as inattentive as he claims." Upon turning the page there was a story" The Vietnamization of Central America ." It seems that the United States is not allowed to help the people of Central America, for we back the dictator in power . This dictator kills people who disgree with him . Yet Russia and Cuba should be allowed to invest in this country and back the guerrilla forces that has killed a few people who disagree with them politically . The paper had a full page of history on Socialism and a full page of history about Russia . There was no history of the United States . Could it be they were afraid to let us make a comparison? Another article that made me wonder just where the writer was coming from was "Bosses on Strike?" The writer believed that all the trouble of the working people was caused by the "American Bosses ." This country was born and weaned on free enterprise. Free enterprise is not perfect, but it does offer a chance to study, to work, to "get ahead" in the world . Under free enterprise in the United States, the standard of living is higher than any country in the world . The countries involved in some form of socialism or communism have these things in common: They have the largest unemployed, the largest welfare and the highest taxes of any country. The socialist and communist countries are not able to raise enough food to feed their people, to

manufacture enough to cloth them or build homes for them . Once you remove man 's incentive, he becomes a robot . There is something that I've always wondered about . The system they are trying to destroy is the only one that will allow free speech . Socialism is workable only in heaven where it isn't needed , and in hell, where they have it . - Cecil Palmer

Nuclear protester searches for answers Nuclear protest seems to be the news these days so let's review some of the arguments. Pro-nuclear fans would like us to believe it's a safe, relatively trouble free energy source. A viable altenative to strip mining coal or pumping oil. They use arguments like: Jane Fonda has more faults, or Jerry

LETTER

Writer disagrees Editor, The Telescope : To Bill Tharp ("Prepare, Not Protest") I have this to say . Those that live by the creed of nationalism are forever slaves of the war machine . Those that live for the acquisition of personal property are forever slaves of their possessions . Those who place survival above all other values are forever slaves of fear. In short, the mart who must eternally defend his "freedom " is never really free at all . The Earth will never b~ safe until mankind rids itself of its bestial paranoia . Freedom begins at home, in the mind . And Bill, all the A-bombs in the universe can 't set us free . Unless, of course, you consider death the ultimate liberation . . . Oliver McFalls

Brown is a med-fly. They really put you in your place by running rings around you logically. What I would like to ask the pro-nuclear group is this: If nuclear energy is so safe why does the Nuclear Regulatory Commission

COMMENTARY routinely site a majority of the plants for being below safety standars, (including our own San Onofre plant)? Maybe we should lower our standards. With so volitile a substance as radio active material I think not . Ask the Russians who recently had 40 square miles vanish when one of their cores melted down. They can tell you how safe it is . What about transporting plutonium, or uranium or other unstable radio-active materials? What would happen to a highway if a transport vehicle overturned, a train derailed, or a plane crashed? Instant contamination. Worse still what if a terrorist group hijacks such a vehicle? Could you imagine the S.L.A . with a nuclear bomb and Patty Hearst? I'd also like to ask them about Diablo Canyon. How long would it have been before they found out the plans were faulty? They've already ignored the land, if not for the demonstrations? Hopefully sometime before they loaded the core. The major problem I have with the pro-

¥¥¥

Editors note: We poor slaves of our possessions provided you with food, for you have no property to grow food on. You are provided clothing, for you have no raw materials to make clothing . You are provided with shelter. There is a place of learning for which you have no use, for knowledge is personal property . As Thomas Paine said : "Those that expect to reap the blessings of freedom must, like men , undergo the fatigue of supporting it ."

nuClear people is they don't tell you what they'll do with the waste. I'm afraid, contrary to Mr. Reagan's information, it would not fit beneath a podium five feet tall by two feet wide. One reason they can't tell you what to do with the waste is no one knows . Congress won't reach a decision on a nuclear dumping site until sometime in the 1990's, and then only if it's not an election year. With all the problems with the E.P.A ., all we need is a nuclear Love Canal. I have a suggestion for congress I may submit. I think we should mail all the pronuclear people a little lead box with their own piece of nuclear waste suitable for framing or mounting and guaranteed to give your house a warm-glow, even on the darkest nights. Maybe I just have the Three Mile Island Blues, but the next time I meet a Pro-nuclear person in front of a supermarket or at the airport, I'll just hand them a copy of "The Day We Almost Lost Detroit."

Student lives out American dream By Greg Zimmerman "I've always wanted to come to America since I was young." Meet Jose Sandoval, a short stocky 26 year old man who has been an assistant producer, director and actor in Venezuela. Currently, a commercial he modeled in is showing in Caracas. He is advertising for the Bank of Venezuela where the young man puts on a smile and displays a bank card to the background of music. Sute (pronounced Sue tay), as Jose prefers to be called, came to the

King leads 10-day cruise Beautiful beaches, charming old brick buildings, colorful waterfronts, bustling native markets ... all marvelous parts of the Caribbean. Learn the history behind the islands of St. Thomas, Antigua, Barbados, Martinique and St. Croix while enjoying a 10 day cruise on the Nordic Prince with Palomar instructor, Michael King. The islands of the Caribbean are not all alike . . . each has its own topographical characteristics. While one island will be hilly and lush with vegetation, the next might be flat with sparse vegetation. Magellan and Bluebeard are among the famous names from the past on St. Thomas, as well as is Admiral Nelson on Barbados with its restored English harbor. This is where they built their castles, moored their ships and fought their battles. The people on the islands have kept the remnants from the past alive, while supporting themselves with their own particular arts and imports from their native lands. St. Thomas has duty-free imports from all over the world. The architecture and food reflect their heritage, such as the unique Victorian houses on Antiqua and the Parisian boutiques and pastry shops of Fort-de-France on St Croix. Martinique, an old colonial stronghold, has a beautiful contrast of things British and things West Indian. The June 19-29 cruise has a cost of $1,590 based on double occupancy and includes all meals, roundtrip air fare (San Diego / Miami), port taxes, transfers and trip cancellation insurance. Early registration must be made. Contact Michael King at 744-1150 or 727-7529 extension 2218 for details.

Infant Center opens Monday By Polly Filanc After several weeks delay due to rain, Palomar's new Infant Center will finally open Monday. Although the center is only open part-time, from 8 a.m. to 12 noon, 'This fall we will offer full-time services," according to Nadine Abbott, director of the Child Development Instructional and Services Center. Staffed by child development experts, the center provides infants and toddlers, ages 6 to 15 months, with "an environment especially designed to incorporate the four areas of a child's growth- physical, intellectual, social and emotional." The center is also a model for other infant centers in the community; a laboratory for Child Development students and parents; a child care facility for parents who attend school; and educational for handicapped children and their parents. $61,000 was pledged by the Palomar Development Foundation for the purchase and installation of the center's mobile unit. Of this amount, $46,900 was raised through the Foundation's "Buy A Share In The Future" fund raising drive which began in September, 1982. The remaining amount of money was donated by the Foundation to complete the project. The Foundation's Child Care Committee, spearheaded by former Palomar President Frederick R. Huber, chairman of the Development Foundation, was responsible for the fund raising drive. The committee members included Dr. Robert Dougherty, Charles Salter, Dick Spanjian, Barbara Swearingen, Angelo Carli, Dean of Continuing Education and Community Services, and Dr. Duane Day, consultant. Along with the Foundation, Abbott and Ruth Clothier, instructor of Child Development, were also "catalysts for making the Infant Center possible. They were in charge of the planning, development and educational programming of this project," according to Margie Ruzich, chairperson of the Child Development Department. For further Infant Center information and reservations, contact the Child Development Center at 744-1150 or 727-7529, extension 2575.

Softball team first in PCC By Anthony Gallo Riding on top of the Pacific Coast Conference with a 6-0 mark, the Comets will attempt to stay undefeated as they travel to San Diego City for a conference clash. Game time is 3 p.m. Paced by the pitching of Joan Larson and the hitting of Denise Borden, the women's softball team improved its rcecord to 17-5 March 25 by defeating Imperial Valley College 9-3. Lisa Bryant went the distance for her sixth win against three defeats. She allowed four hits while striking out two. The Comets jumped out to a 4-0 lead, one which they never relinquished. Denise Borden tripled scoring on a Carmen John single. After Darla Allen walked, Tina Downey singled and Tori Villa followed with a two run single. The Comets added two runs in the third inning, one in the fifth and two runs in the sixth to cap the scoring. The date March 23 will be a day Saddleback will try to forget as they were annihilated by the Comets 21-0. Joanie Larson pitched her second nohitter while striking out ten. She lost her bid for a perfect game as she allowed her only baserunner to reach on a walk in the second inning. She helped her own cause with three singles and a sacrifice fly. The Borden sisters, Denise and Darleen were the hitting stars. Denise tripled, singled twice and had a sacrifice fly driving in five runs. Darleen added two base hits while collecting three RBI's. •

Waterman's squad has a 4-2 season mark going into the April 12 meet with Mt. SAC and Rio Hondo. "We had some very good times," Coach Don Hubbard said of his men's squad. Freshman Mike Brown turned in the fastest time in the state this year in the 200-yard backstroke with a 2:03.00 in the winning event. Dave Cunniff won the 200-yard freestyle in 1:49.7, making him the first Comet under 1:50 this year. Cunniff also anchored both winning relay teams. Sophomore Mitch Auld was a double winner with a personal best in the 50-yard free (23.5) and a 2:10.5 in the 200-yard IM. Sophomore Jeff Cram was also a double winner with a 2:05.1 in the 200-yard butterfly and a 2:24.0 in the 200-yard breaststroke. Freestyle winners for Palomar included Tom Black in the 100 (51.5), Spencer Golden in the 500 (5:11.05) and Kevin Sullivan in the 1,000 (10:42.7). Dan McCauley placed second in the one and three-meter diving events with scores of 178.00 and 171.00, respectively. The Comet women had three double winners on the day. Kathy Richards took the 200-yard IM (2:24.6) and the 500-yard free (5:37.7). Gianna Weed won the 50 and 100-yard backstroke (32.8 and 1:11.4) and Ana Salazar won the 50 and 100-yard free (27.0 and 1:00.0). Kim Hoyt won the 100-yard butterfly (1:06.1) and Leslie Lowe won the diving with 180.35 points. Patty Roberts won the 50-yard·fly in 29.8. Both relays went to Palomar with a 2:06.7 in the medley and a 1:52.3 in the freestyle. Coach Hubbard's men wrapped up its first PCC dual meet title March 18 with a convincing 64-49 victory over the Saddleback Gauchos. Palomar beat Saddleback for the first time in eight years, requiring Hubbard to live up to his promise of shaving his beard as a result of the victory. Coach Waterman's women easily outdistanced the Gauchos, 83-57. Hubbard, who was thrown in the pool following the meet last Friday said the win was "really a team victory." "After we were disqualified on the opening relay, the guys just showed a lot of fortitude to hang in there an battle back the way they did," said Hubbard. Hubbard had high praise for freshman ace Mike Brown who set a new school record in the 1,000freestyle in 4:12.3 set in 1978 by AllAmerican Paul Farley.

Cagers split two games; end second round of play MiraCosta will host Palomar's women's basketball team, today at5 p.m. concluding the second round of Pacific Coast Conference play. A split in PCC games last week left the Comets with a 3-13 overall and 1-7 PCC record. Grossmont humbled the Comets March 23 with a 62-33 beating, but Coach Judy Sanders' team fought back and avenged a first round loss to San Diego City with a 47-42 win March 25. The victory was the first in nine games, dating back to February 25 against Mt. San Jacinto. Freshman guard Terry Crutchfield led the assault SDCC with 22 points. Sophomore center Stacy Pincock regained her reboun-

ding form and hauled in 17 caroms. Kellie Janikowski had nine points and Linda Ortiz added eight. The Comets held a slim 21-20 halftime lead and SDCC went on top, 23-21, but Palomar came back to score eight straight points and never looked back. Injuries have also been a problem for Palomar as forward Ruthie Dessert, forward Elaine Baumann and Crutchfield have all been injured recently. Dessert is out for the season with an ankle injury, while Baumann received an eye injury and Crutchfield damaged her wrist and had to leave the SDCC game.

Women netters remain unbeaten The beat goes on for the Palomar women's tennis squad as the Comets head into the last week of the Pacific Coast Conference season. Coach Nan Haugen's team will end their league dual match season with a trip to San Diego Mesa on April 12 and a home date with Saddleback on April14. The Comets were 13-0 on the year and 10-0 in the PCC after downing three foes before Easter. Southwestern lost 9-0 in straight sets March 22 and MiraCosta was a loser March 25, winning just one set of doubles. Imperial Valley phoned a forfeit on Thursday, which proved to be an inauspicious way for Coach Haugen to record her 100th victory in league matches since coming to Palomar in 1975. She has run up an impressive string of credentials including an overall record of 137-21-1 and a league record of 101-10 with six conference titles and an 18-4-1 record against four year colleges. Four of those conference titles came in undefeated seasons and 1983looks to be the fifth as only four points have been scored upon the Comets in league play. Haugen's winning percentage is an overwhelming .861 (.910 in league). Sixty-nine of the victories have been shutouts.

Coming off a busy spring break that saw the baseball team play five games in seven days, the Palomar nine will play nineteen league games in the next thirty days. An already overworked pitching staff will have its work cut out for it, since the Comets will average four games a week for the next month. Darren Balsley, who strained a ligament in his throwing arm three weeks ago, is not expected to see any time on the mound in the near future. "He needs time to get in shape." With only four healthy pitchers available to him the Comet skipper does not plan to use any special rotation, just play it one game at a time. After an extended hybernation the Comet bats have shown signs of life recently scoring 26 runs in the last four games. The locals have begun to show some of the offensive power expected before the season. The ability to combine this new found offense with the solid pitching of early season action will be the key to a stretch drive to the playoffs. "We have a good shot no doubt," said Ian Kelly who reflects the general mood of the team going into the final days. "With 13 league games left we must put a string together. With no time to practice, things that need attention don't get it. We have to adju~;~t in game situations. It makes it tough." Coach Robert Vetter feels Kelley's attitude has been essential in keeping the team up. "He's giving 100 percent at all times and has been the most con sis tent player on the team." Vetter also feels Opie Moran has played well both defensively and at the plate. What record would be needed to put the Comets in the playoffs?" .500 record or better should do it," said Vetter. "With the division so balanced this year, 13-11 or 12-12 should be enough to get us in.""Ifwe continue to improve, I believe that improvement will be reflected in the win column."
