News Focus TV teaches Spanish Not only is Palomar Educational TV offering a brand new approach to learning conversational Spanish this spring semester, more North County residents than ever before will be able to take advantage of this and other television college courses. Instructors Janet Hafner and Carlos Gomez have created "Conversernos (Let's Talk)," an entertaining as well as motivating means of learning to converse in Spanish. Story boards and real situations are extensively used and an amusing melodrama is continued throughout this 30-lesson series.

Trustees restore $160,000 After facing long months on a tight budget, nine campus areas can breathe a little easier as the Governing Board took action February 28 to restore $160,000 to non-salary accounts. According to Gene Jackson, dean of Humanities, the allocation "is less than we needed, but we are glad to receive some money." The $160,000 became available after state legislators and Governor George Deukrnejian reached a compromise agreement to restore $96.6 million to community college budgets and to impose first-time ever tuition fees. The following areas receiving portions of the money are: Continuing Education: $7,000 will
go to expenses for the art gallery, equipment, supplies, repairs to the building and printing. Instructional Resources: $41,000 will go for equipment and library books. $31,000 allotted for equipment will go to purchasing two cameras and a new recording deck for the television studio; microfilm reader/ printer in the library; and equipment for KSM radio station and the telecommunications instructional program. Physical Education/ Athletics: $6,000 will go for equipment and health education. Science, Technology and Business: $40,000 will go to the purchase of 30 microscopes for biology, and other
equipment for botany and the science division . Vocational Education: $23,000 will go for equipment in the areas of vocational education, family and consumer sciences, graphic arts, auto and diesel mechanics; instructional supplies for construction crafts technology, graphic arts, industrial tech general and auto mechanics; and supplies for vocational education administration. Humanities: $22,275 will go for equipment in psychology, philosophy, and sociology, and reading. The bulk of this money will be used to purchase 12 microprocessors to be installed in the library. All of the above, totalling $139,974

Biennial smog check mandatory By Polly Filanc
In a world already complicated by bureaucratic red tape, California motorists can add a mandatory biennial smog check to the list. Beginning this month, the state and official smog stations are gearing up for the rigid inspection of 12 million autos, light trucks, and vans in five of California's smoggiest regions. These regions include San Diego County, South Coast Air Basin (Los Angeles, San Bernadino, Riverside, and Orange Counties), Ventura County, the San Francisco Bay area and Sacramento. Fresno County will also mandate vehicle inspections in September. Vehicles will be required to pass a smog check before obtaining a license every other year. Vehicles with a registration expiration date before May 8 will not be required to undergo inspections this year. But beginning March 19 the Department of Motor Vehicles will be sending out license renewal forms for vehicles with expiration dates of May 8 and later.

"Two guys had wand e red ove r to watch us . They spotted the ro lls and asked if they cou ld have them . We said sure, a nd they immediate ly ripped opened the bags and began eating. We were s urprised, not so muc h by t he begging, but by the way t hey we re eating." Thus began what is known as the Food Bank. To be eligible to receive goods from the Bank, one must be a full-time student or a s in gle pare nt with nin e or more units. Partic ipants also must be refe rred by one of the fo llowing departments: EOPS, Financial Aid, Student Help Cen ter, Women 's Cente r, or the Counseling Department. In the beginning ASG so licited co mmunity service clubs for donations to start the Bank. "Soon , newspapers got w ind of the program ," Klug says, "and it took off from there. The rest is history." Radio stations, Chann el 10, and the L.A. Times a ll featured th e Food Bank, help in g to promote both publicity and donations fo r the cause. Now organ izations and individuals and even a local grocery store have con tributed to th e Bank. Non -perish able food items, clothes, games, and cas h co nstitute most of the donations. Two spec ial contributions, one by th e Palomar Patron s and another by a San Diego woman boosted t h e program with their gifts. The Patrons gave the Bank a refrigerator to store the perishable ite ms, and the San Diego woman donated 40 tu rkeys fo r holiday dinn ers.
"It's been s uccessfu l beyond a ll my dreams," Klug says about the program. "It has don e some good, h ad a lot of impact, and the people really do need it." Th e on ly problem, he continues, is that "a lot of people qualify but are too pro ud to accept it ( help )." Klug estimates t h at 50 people h ave come to the Bank for help so far. Som e of those students are steady "c ustomers" while others are new people that the Bank p ick up every day. ASG pred icts t he Bank will be of service to over a 100 people t his semester. Rece ntly, ASG sent out a plea to the various departme nts on campus to hold a "mini" food drive. "To sustain the ASG Food Bank Program," Leon ard Flagg, ASG president, says, "we still need donations of cash and food. Success of th is program depends of a small effort by many." ASG is requesting can n ed food items or a small monthly pledge of money. Klug adds that the Bank is a lso in need of two s leeping bags. One student, grateful to the Food Bank wrote: "ASG , to m e, fu rt her con firms the fact t h at our college cares about someth in g more than making mon ey . . . it is clear that our college is a lso conce rn ed about the well-being of its students."

Local top pop eclipses British rock By Phil Dreth 1983 deserves to be reme mber ed as the year the Southern California music scene eclipsed the dying creative energies of the United Kingdom. As England stagnated with fashion ably clad musical businessmen , California burst at the seams with musical schizophrenia. The press bandied about the make-do labels, "punk country", "afrobilly", "n ew psych edelia", "scratch", and "positive punk" to describe the emerging music scene. If the new music's latest editions have any uniting feature, it is the presence of intelligent lyrics. Guitars also regained their dominance after several years of synthesizer overkill. And although 1983 produced many outstanding local releases on labels large and small, there were ten releases that specifically put together the best melody, rhythm, lyrics, and performance that struck a good balance between accessibility and artistic respectability. 1) The Bangles. EP (Faulty Products/ IRS) Remember harmony and melody in rock music? Proving that danceable music doesn't have to be disco, the Bangles' crisp, upbeat sound is in keeping with the times , but includes touches of the Beatles and the Mamas & Papas around the edges. On the basis of this budget-priced five song EP the Bangles secured a recording contract with planet Earth's megalabel, CBS. Look for their ftrst full length album to be released within the next few months. 2) Rank and File "Sundown" (Slash) If imitation is the sincerest form of flattery, Rank and File o ught to be egomaniacs. More than a few bands have popped up to take advantage of the new ground broken by the Kinman brothers, former Carlsbad residents who formed Rank and File a couple of years ago . Their music is frequently libelled, uh, labelled "punk country" by the press. Rank .and File might better be described as a modern cousin to rockabilly, without the revivalism. If the Stray Cats or the Blasters appeal to you, do yourself a favor and check out this band. Guaranteed to please all but the most ardent Percy Faith fans. 3) Rainy Day (Llama/ Enigma) "Rainy Day" is a collection of mid sixties tunes lovingly performed by members of several popular Los An geles bands. Familiar and lesser known material by Bob Dylan, the Beach Boys,
So Cal bursts with musical schizophrenia Neil Young and the Velvet Underground are among the highlights here. You might have to order this album, but it's well worth the trouble. Since some stores in the area have been retailing this album for around five and half dollars, the low price leaves you no excuse. 4) The Radio Tokyo Tapes (Ear Movie) Compilation albums can often be risky buys, so when an exceptional album like this arrives, it's something to shout about. ''The Radio Tokyo Tapes" runs the musical gamut, from sixties influenced pop by the Three O'Clock to the Min utemen's punk funk of "I Felt Like a Gringo" to the ethereal Choir Invisible to the novelty of the Bangles commercial for No Mag. Since this album features seventeen different artists, a complete listing of highlights is out of the question . Suffice it to retread an old cliche: the Rain Parade's "Saturday Asylum" alone is worth the cost of the album. 5) Translator No Time Like Now (415/ CBS) An excellent second album from the group that hit with "Everywhere I'm Not." This guitar-oriented band from San Francisco was a nationwide smash in college radio and should appeal to rockers and new music fans alike. Howie Klein, president of 415 Records, says this is the best record his label has ever released. No arguments have been offered. 6) Burning Sensations EP (Capitol); LP (Capitol) Los Angeles' Andy and the Rattlesnakes took on Motels guitarist Tim McGovern and percussionist extraordinaire Michael ''Tempo" Temple almost two years ago to become Burning Sensation s. McGovern's hybrid of rhythms and Hendrix-gone-surf guitars make for the freshest music since the punk explosion of 1976-77. The album contains nasty versions ofCreedence and Hendrix as well as the hit, "Belly of the Whale." But to get the full effect, indulge in their live show, get right down in front and arrange for someone to drive you home. 7) The Three O'Clock EP: Baroque Hoedown (Frontier); LP Sixteen Tambourines (Frontier). What once bordered on being an embarrasingly trendy psychedelic revival band has turned into a top notch
pop band. The Three O'Clock are now using their influences as a foundation for a new cross-breed of styles. The five song EP "Baroque Hoedown" is a good (and inexpensive) introduction and their best work to date. Their just-released album is also worth looking into. On a major label, "Jet Fighter" would be a hit. Although catchy melodies and fairly economical arrangements are given due respect, this band's forte is songwriting. 8) The Call Modem Romans (Mercury) As Peter Gabriel said, "These guys
sing from the heart." Although ''The Walls Came Down" was a hit earlier this year, that song is just the starting point of a fine album. Vocalist and songwriter Michael Been says his favorite is ''Turn a Blind Eye." As with Translator, this Santa Cruz band has a committment desperately lacking in much of today's formula music schlock. 9) Our San Diego favorites, the Pens, have produced a worthy successor to the successful "Walk the Beat" EP. For starters, "Company Man" and "Standing in Line" top most of the EP and
.
"Jimmy Don't Do It" is their most passionate track since their debut single. This surprisingly consistent album not only shows increasing versatility, but manages to top just about any major label release this year. Time has given the Pens the polish they need for commerical success. 10) Shadow Minstrels Great Expectations EP (Pterodactyl) This independent release is well crafted and shows influences from the "post-punk" school without being too derivative. Is radio ready? Look for a new tune on the Rhino label's forthcoming compilation, "Battle of the Garages, Volume Two." Enough said. Let's hope we've built a good foundation for more fresh music in George Orwell's year.

Martian Chronicles' set to unveil special effects I
Ray Bradbury's sc ience fiction classic ''The Martian Chronicles" is entering its final casting stages prior to its Palomar Co llege Theatre debut March 29, said theatre director Buddy Ash brook. Adapted and directed by William Adams, ''The Martian Chronicles" is Bradbury's renowned vision of the fu ture colonization of the planet Mars and the subsequent struggle to survive among inhabitants. Ashbrook said the science fiction epic will not only recreate the original novel's drama but will also feature a "stunning special effects display that may be unparalleled in Palomar theatre production." "Although I'm not directly responsible for this particular production , I do know that Mr. Adams' theatre adaptation will utilize a vast array of special effects that are both innovative and extensive," Ashbrook said, indicating that several impressive panoramic techniques of story rec reation will be presented. Ashbrook said the production, which has been in its preliminary casting and rehearsal stages for weeks, has received Bradbury's enthusiastic s upport. In fact, Bradbury is so pleased with Adams' adaptation that he plans to attend the play's "Gala Night" April 6, Ashbrook noted.
"I've received two letters from Mr. Bradbury regarding the production, and in both instances he has been exceedingly supportive of the adaptat ion," Ashbrook said. "He appears genuinely delighted that "The Martian Chronicles" has become a theatre production." In addition to Bradbury's attendance at the play, both he and Adams intend to appear on stage immediately following its conclusion to answer questions from the audience concerning aspects of the production. Ashbrook said usage of the forum format, in which playwrights and authors field questions from the audience, is becoming an increasingly frequent part of major Broadway productions. Ashbrook added that Palomar's presentation of ''The Martian Chronicles" is the prelude to a scheduled national tour of the production. He said the dates for such a tour are currently incomplete.

Flights of Fancy By Polly Filanc Oh, I have slipped the surly bonds of' ea rth And dance the skies of' laug hter silvered wings. - .John Gillespie Magee, Jr. Flight h as long been the dream of man, and since the Wright Brothers took to the air, man 's ability to defY the law of gravity has soared to great heights. And for Palomar's flight team, !lying is not only a r eality, but their blue yonder skills h ave them ranked as the top co mmunity co llege team in the nation . Currently, the mighty r ed barons are honing their !lying skills to face stiff co mpetition in the regional Pacific Coast Interco llegiate SAFECON, hosted by Orange Coast College at Hemet's Ryan Field April 14 and 15. One hundred students from eleven universities and co lleges from the Paci fic Coast region will be co mpeting. In I 981 -82, Palomar was the Pacific Coa-;t champion , but la'it year placed third. Also, the top pilot in the Pac ific Coast r egion has come from the Palomar team three years in a row - Dave Wood, John Erhardt, and T. Wilkinson . Wood and Erhardt arc presently coach ing the team. Th eir toughest conte nd er Orange Coast, which placed first last sp ring, edged the local llyers by a slight 12 points. The perennial powerhouse San Jose State placed second. According to Richard Russ ell, !light team m ember who ha'i two years flying experience, "If we place in the top three spots at the r egionals, then we will go on to compete in the nationals at Co lorado Springs in late April. " For the past four years, Palomar has competed in the National Inter co ll egiate Flying Association SAFECON and is ranked as the top co mmunity co llege in the count ry. The SAFECON competitions co nsist of eight flying and ground events. Flyers are rated by their flying skills and knowledge, and aviation safety is stressed throughout the m eet. Flying eve nts include precision power-off landing, navigation , prec ision power-on landings, and precision air drop. Ground eve nts are pre-flight , sim ulator eve nts, aircraft recognition , and navigation comp uter accuracy. Established in 1973 under the guidance of co -advisor K ent Backhart,

Palomar's Pi Alpha chapter of the int ernational aviation frat er nity (AE R) Alpha Eta Rho has llown all over the country in co mpetition and for recreation. Among the competi tions flown to are Louisiana, Michigan , and North Dakota. Th e club has also mad e several trips to Baja, California and Catalina island. Russel points out that the main purpose of the team is not only to "br ing together individuals interested in aviation, but to develop a high degree of proficien cy and safety skills in aspiring aviators." Along with honing skills, Russell says !lying provides a sense of"freedom and mobility as well as a birdseye view of snow covered mountains, deserts and ocean simultaneously." Th e types of planes th ey lly vary depending on the usc. "Fo r co mpetition , we fly small Cessna single engine 152s. On longer trips we use larger planes, usually com plex single engine models," Russell said. Th e planes are r ented from FBO (Fix ed Base Operators) , suc h as BHW Aviation and Western Sun. Aspiring pilots are trained to handle em ergency situations and are taught to interpret weather briefings in order to avoid bad weather conditions. For in stance, being able to r ead weather briefings, a pilot can judge when con ditions for take-off are favorable. When faced with a n emerge ncy landing, a trained pilot can act without panic king to assure a success ful landing. Being a member of the !light team enables young pilots to pick up skills from the more expe rienced llyers and gives them exposure to the various facits of aviation , adds Russell. It takes 50-60 hours of flight train ing as well as a ground school co urse to obtain a pilot's lice nse. Some of the past team m embe rs have gone on to work as air traffic cont roll ers, !light instructors and ATP's (airlin e transportation pilots) . "Membership to the team is open to all Palomar College students interested in the excitement of flight and love to travel and have a great time," Rus sell said. "Pilots, st udent pilots and / or non -pilots arc welcom e." Meetings are every Wednesday at 5:30p. m . in ES-20. For more information, contact co-advisor Jerry Houser in ES-23 or Ext. 25 18.
