'Elephant Man' appears TIME TO MOVE ON

firS:,~'!!.:.fnN~~~- county ''The most striking feature about him was his enormous head ... He was denied all means of escape from his torment." Yet, the head size was just one of an abundance of physical deformities that made people scream and run from the sight. The story of John Merrick, universallyknown as ''The Elephant Man", will be presented by the Palomar College Theatre beginning December 8, and will allow audiences the opportunity to witness the humanity and sensitivity, the pain and humor, behind Merrick's grotesque features, that ultimately endeared him to English nobility. ''The Elephant Man" is based on the diary of Sir Fredrick Treves, who recounts his experiences as Merrick's personal doctor and friend. Director David Boyd will bring Bernard Pomerance's powerful and touching, Tony Award winning adaptation to life through a series of events during Merrick's sanctuary at London Hospital, where he spent the last six years of his life and died at the age of 30. Boyd recently returned from London where he had the rare opportunity of visiting the home of the Elephant Man, studying Merrick's remains, his specially-c reated hood, and castings of his grossly deformed limbs, as well as researching background information through the curator of the London Hospital Pathology Museum - a unique experience as only doctors and medical students are permitted to study the remains. "Visitors are not allowed," said Boyd,

"This was a real man with simple and delightful personal qualities, intelligent and witty, in spite of his physical despair." "as the hospital strives to preserve his (Merrick's) sanctuary even in death. The visit enlightened me to the reality of the story ... this was a real man with simple and delightful personal ¡qualities, intelligent and witty, in spite of his physical despair." Palomar's production of ''The Elephant Man" is the first ever in North San Diego County and draws its cast from throughout the community. John Grzesiak, who has been in several local theater productions, will play John Merrick. The role is physically demanding as it requires an awesome metamorphasis, as well as the skill to convey an extensive slate of emotions. Chris Lowry, a professional actor

Appointment rift ends

)~;~.

These words of Board of Trusteeelect Mary Burke Trotta express the feelings of most Palomar officials as the controversial issue of trustee Robert Dougherty's appointment comes to a close. Newly elected trustee Leon Bar ad at has dropped his attempt to rescind the September 20 appointment. Baradat campaigned that the appointment process was "illegal" which Jed to the defeat of two board incumbents. Baradat's decision was in response to the district attorney's report on November 17 which concluded that no criminal violation of the Brown Act occurred regarding the appointment, but that it could be challenged through civil action under the Brown Act. The report also indicated that the board violated its own precedural rules in the manner of the appointment. Baradat also pointed out that government and education codes covering such parliamentary procedure are vague.

said it would accept written applications to fl..ll a vacancy left by the resignation of William Boyce, and interview the applicants at a public meeting. Instead trustees Alan Krichman, Charles Salter and James Slivkoff conferred by telephone and announced the appointment, allowing no public comment. Since Dougherty intends to remain on the board, the matter of the appointment seems to be settled. Baradat indicated that while "an injustice may have to go unrectified ... more harm to Palomar . will result from further

By Melanie Anderson In recent opinion polls taken here regarding calendar changes, several Palomar staff members and students voiced their opinions about changing Palomar's academic schedule. Leading the majority vote, the eariystart academic calendar is by far the most favored by both students and faculty who were polled. Out of the 125 certificated faculty members who responded to the survey, 34 of those respondents preferred the present traditional calendar, 74 preferred the early-start, and 17 preferred the flexible calendar. From the 65 classified faculty respondents, 13 preferred the traditional, 4 7 preferred the early-start, and five preferred the flexible. Overwhelmingly, the majority went to the early-start calendar with 121 votes by Palomar staff members. According to Dr. Dave Chappie, dean of Student Services, preference surveys reached students through the classrooms. Of the 321 students polled, 80% (256

people) preferred the early-start calendar, and 20% (65people) preferred the traditional. The surveys did not in clude the flexible calendar, therefore, not informing students of the second alternative to the traditional calendar. ''The main concern and the main point in surveying students,"D r . Chappie says,"is to get the feel of that concept of beginning fall semester early and ending it before Christmas." He adds that this is the point in which the flexible and early-start calendars have in common. "I think it would have been confusing to students," he continues, speaking about including the flexible calen dar to the student survey. ''The flexible calendar is more specified towards faculty.It involves them more," Chappie says. " The technicalities (of the flexible) are not important to students and are not related to the calendars." An example of the flexible calendar would start the fall semester August 27 and end the semester on December 21. The spring semester would begin

The spring semester would begin January 14 and end the semester on May 29 Positive aspects of the early-start and flexible calendars include ending the first semester before Christmas, therefore eliminating the awkward time period before finals, and putting Palomar more in line with the fouryear colleges. Negative aspects of these calendars include enrollment loss due to the early start, and the beginning of school in mid-August with high temperatures and hot stuffy classrooms. One student, Alice Nicoloff, fresh man , who is in favor of the early-start calendar feels that" A lot of the same cons (for the early-start) is what we have now." She adds, "Starting two weeks earlier does not make a whole lot of difference." Another student, Rob Wickord, so ph omore, is in favor of the flexible calendar. He commented," I like the idea of a whole month off after Christmas, and of getting out of school in May. After all, the fall semester would start only one week early. Other than that, it's all the same." With any calendar change, there would still be a problem with parentstudent schedules conflicting with their children's differing school schedules.

Dougherty, in turn, refused, saying he saw no reason to, because the appointment process was legal and he feels he can serve the district well. Trotta, who has been opposed to Baradat's attempt to unseat Dougherty, said that "If enough pressure had been put on him (Dougherty) to resign, it could start a precedence for the future which could be harmful." She a lso felt that any action to oust Dougherty would be too expensive and would distract the board from the tasks before them. "It would not have been wise," she added.

SOMETIMES AT Nl~HT.. II

Proposed early start calendar challenged By Polly Filanc While many surveys have been conducted on campus lately, there is one that may lead to disrupt student's lives and drag the college deeper in financial gloom - the early start acedemic calendar.

Designed and heavily backed by faculty leaders, the new calendar, if adopted, would begin the fall semester in the middle of August and conclude just prior to Christmas vacation. The spring semester would commence during the middle of January and end during the last part of May. From a 18,000 student population, only 321 students were surveyed. 80 percent were in favor of the early start calendar mostly because they would not have to resume the fall semester after the Christmas break. Many students failed to realize (or faculty members failed to explain) the crushing impact of the new calendar on students, enrollment and finances . For instance, students with children in grades K-12 could no longer spend lengthy summer vacations with their children because of conflicts and overlap in their school schedules. Parents would also face the difficult and expensive task of finding and hiring babysitters for the last two to three weeks of summer while they attend school. Even more frustrating and confusing would be the two to three week lull after the spring semester as these students wait for their kids to get out of school. This proposed calendar conflicts with all the schools in the Palomar district, including elementary and high schools. While no statistics are available of how many students are parents with K-12 kids, according to the records office, some parents are very worried about whether they would be able to attend college under those circumstances. Some are contemplating going to MiraCosta. Some faculty leaders agree that the greatest impact of the new calendar would be on these students, but they brush it off by saying "They will adjust." Perhaps "they" will, but the college will have to make major adjustments to deal with the eventual financial setback due to a loss of enrollment if the calendar is imposed. Palomar is already facing a $1.5 million

\\-\~ ~L\\1

deficit caused by a significant drop in enrollment this semester. To complicate matters further, administrators, currently looking for ways to increase spring enrollment, anticipate greater loss if tuition and the new calendar go into effect. Promoters of the early start system say that while they have no idea just how much enrollment would drop, they are anxious to find out. If imposed and enrollment drops, more drastic cuts in the college's budget will occur, affecting salaries, jobs, programs, classes, services, supplies, and other areas that help to maintain high educational standards. In other words, Palomar cannot afford to take the risk of losing more students. If the college had a secure funding base and large reserve, then maybe the new calendar might be feasible. In weighing the pros and cons of both systems - early start verses traditional - there is not one overwhelming reason to change the present system, except maybe to please some overly enthused faculty members, who would like to eliminate the fall break at Christmas. Among the pros for both are: The traditional calendar keeps in line with local school districts and high schools for mid-year graduates; reduces the chance for enrollment loss for fall semester; allows for a short semester break that helps retain students for spring; and eliminates the costly hassle of restructuring courses. Early start proponents claim that the new calendar would enhance opportunities for summer employment and allow for an extended break between semesters for course preparation, work or vacation. While the early calendar would be more in line with four-year colleges for transfer, only three percent of Palomar students directly transfer to other institutions. When considering the major drawbacks of the early start calendar - enrollment loss, child care costs and difficulties, and vacation conflicts - the appealing fall/spring break is not that important. Even though the survey indicated that many favored the new calendar, there is some doubt whether the survey is truly representative of the students attending Palomar and whether those pushing for an early start system are fully prepared to face or suffer any financial consequences.

Trustees lauded for noble gesture By Polly Filanc

Trustee-elect Mary Burke Trotta and trustee Robert Dougherty should be commended for their concern with the college's financial pinch and their unselfishness for volunteering to pay all their own expenses to a board convention this month. They expressed a desire to attend the California School Boards Association's annual

conference in San Francisco but they wanted to spare the college the expense at the last board meeting November 22. This noble gesture deserves recognition and serves as an example for other officials genuinely wishing to expand their awareness and knowledge beyond the borders of campus. Though not required, this initial attempt of board members to pay their expenses hopefully will pave the way for others to take heed.

LETTER TO THE EDITOR

Baradat explains new position Dear Editor: The District Attorney's report of November 17, 1983, concludes that no criminal violation of the Brown Act occurred regarding the September 20 appointment of Dr. Robert Dougherty to the Palomar College Board ofT rustees. The report goes on to indicate, however, that there may be cause for civil action under the Brown Act and that the board violated its own rules of procedure in the manner of Dr. Dougherty's appointment. My rather extensive consultation with attorneys and other interested parties reveals that the new board cannot legally rescind the appointment of Dr. Dougherty even though it may be illegal and/or illegitimate. That option precluded, four alternatives remain. 1. The citizens could recall Dr. Dougherty. This option is undesirable as it would cost Palomar over $160,000 and would, in my view, be irresponsible given the fiscal plight of the district. 2. A civil action could be brought on grounds that the method of appointment violated both the Brown Act and the board's adopted policy. This alternative is also undesirable since litigation of the matter is apt to be long, rancorous, divisive, and costly.

3. Dr. Dougherty, recognizing the depth of public concern over this matter, could resign, thus allowing the board to make the appointment in an open meeting after receiving resumes and interviewing applicants, as the previous board originally voted to do. 4. The new board could simply ignore the matter and turn to the pressing problems facing Palomar College. As already indicated, it seems to me that the first two options are impractical and unacceptable. Palomar cannot afford a recall or a long civil suit and the last thing it needs is a bitter split on the board. The best option is for Dr. Dougherty to resign. If he does so, I will personally ask him to become an applicant for appointment to the resulting vacancy. If Dr. Dougherty does not resign , I must reluctantly conclude that, offensive to the public though this matter is, the new board is left with no reasonable recourse. Palomar's interests will be best served by putting this issue behind us and getting on with the agenda. I am personally distressed that an injustice may have to go unrectified, but I am persuaded that even more harm to Palomar will result from further attempts to right this wrong. Leon P. Baradat

FIRST EVER CALIFORNIA TOUR

Arbain spurs community interest By Chris Reynolds Some people may think San Marcos is a "Whistle Stop." From November 4 through 8 they were right. The Artrain , on its first ever California tour made a stop in San Marcos. San Marcos Mayor Lionel G.

Although individual effort was a strong point for the Comets, their win loss record "was based on team attitude as a unit, and playing well togeth er," Hankin said."What it comes down to is mental attitude.
