Flea Market closes; ASB loses $9,000 By Melanie Anderson and Chris Reynolds As a result of lost revenue and legal ramifications, ASB's flea market has closed its doors after 18 months of business. The pet project suffered a $9000 loss over that time period which was the motivational force behind the termination. According to ASB advisor Dean Norman Price, funds allocated to the market had run out. "It was the only big mistake student government has made in the past three years," said Price. Controversy clouded the flea market issue shortly before its closure and may have had a hand in its hasty shutdown in September.

Flea market director J.C. Lowery resigned from his post on September 18. He cited illegalities concerning the market's validity to exist as his reason for resignation. The legal question concerning the ASB venture involved a San Marcos city ordinance prohibiting swap meets of any kind within the city limits. Palomar president Omar Scheidt had correspondence with the city manager regarding the issue prior to the market's opening and reached what he called a mutual understanding. The basis of the understanding was founded on the premise that Palomar College is not within the city's jurisdiction because of its status as a special district and because the land on which Palomar sits is state-owned. According the Vice Squad Detective Terry Jensen, the flea market was allowed to go into business because "the Sheriffs Department couldn't get the city attorney to answer the question (of whether Palomar was in violation or not of the city ordinance). There was never any definite information, and the city never gave us any direction as whether to prosecute or not." After researching the puzzle of whether or not Palomar was exempt from the city ordinance, Jensen concluded that the college is state prop-

Services held for instructor Memorial services ft1r Janice Chalfant, Program Coordinator for the :rn~. Carmel Satellite Center, were held October 6 at the Rancho Bernardo Community Church. "Janice joined the staff of Palomar as Program Coordinator on August 31, 1981," said Dr. Omar Scheidt, President and District Superintendent. "She was a valued friend and colleague and will be missed by those of us who had the good fortune to know her."

erty, although the site on which it sits is district owned. In actuality, though, Palomar was never cited for the meet itself, but for a sign advertising the flea market, which Farrow says, had been there for about a year. The flea market opened up to both sellers and buyers in September of 1983 despite the unresolved question. When Lowery discovered that it was illegal for Palomar College to hold the flea market, he quit. He then conducted extensive research, he said, and found out that 1. Palomar needed a license to operate the market and 2. that the college also needed a usedland permit. Both of these were to be issued from the city, although Lowery

contends that he didn't know this and stated that the administrators of the college took care of all the legal aspects of setting up the market. Then Lowery found out that the swap meets were against city ordinances anyway. So he called the San Marcos City Planning Commission, he says, and they told him that they had nothing to do with the flea market. Lowery got the impression that he could go ahead with the business. "I think how it got started in the first place," Lowery says, "was with the help of a 'political favor'. What I mean by that is, that an administrator overlooked the law in order to start the flea market. ASB thought that this was a good way to make some money. Every-

body thought this was a good idea." That is, until one Sunday afternoon when a sheriff visited the flea market and told Lowery that it was in violation of city ordinances. While there, he says, she found a serialized item that had not been reported on a flea market form. Deputy Jensen denies this report. Meanwhile, Deputy Jensen had contacted Price over the phone, and "suddenly the flea market became a 'bad thing'", Lowery said. "All of the sudden it became illegal, and I wanted to know why. Then I found out that it had been against the law all the time." ASB, in total, suffered a $9000 loss in the venture, mostly through advertising, contends ASB officials.

Students may be wondering why when entering the school they find a cop sitting at the front entrance of Palomar. Deputy William Jehl of the San Diego Sheriffs Department showed up at Palomar about four weeks ago and has been citing an average of three students every morning for illegal right hand turns. According to Norman Price, dean of students, the sheriff"observed the traffic problem himself. He's here on his own idea, and has no connection with the school. The sheriff is here to prevent a serious accident." Sheriff Jehl explains that students A Tum For The Wol'Se- Deputy Sheriff William Jehl stops an unfortuhave been "circumventing the rules of nate student driver who made and illegal right hand turn at the the roadway" by passing up other cars entrance to the college student parking lots. waiting in line to enter the school and (Photo by Larry Meyer) by swerving into the entrance dangerously.

Tony Award winning IEquus' premieres with bare essentials Reasons behind a teenage boy's atrocious crime of blinding six horses become evident to the child psychologist as well as to the audience as the play Equus unfolds on stage at Palomar College's theater. The Tony Award winning play, written by Peter Shaffer, opens at 7:30p.m. tonight and runs October 20, 21, 25,26 and 27 under the direction of Buddy Ashbrook. One of Ashbrook's favorite plays, he feels that rehearsals are going well. "We probably have the best actors that we've ever had. It is as if they came out of the woodwork when they

heard we were doing Equus." Some controversies, however, did accompany the play as two actors are required to do a nude scene. ''The nudity in the play is far over emphasized," said Ashbrook. "I would cut the scene out if it wasn't impor~ tant, but it is very important to the play," he added. Ashbrook emphasized that the scene is the climax to the play. It shows the reason why the boy, Alan, blinded the horses. He says that the audience will not see the guilt if the scene is not done correctly, including the exclusion of clothing.

"ASB lost the money because Lowery was in control," said ASB president Kevin Farrow, "there should of been someone watching him (and the finances) every minute." Lowery said he received his new budget for the flea market on July 1, 1984. He had requested $7000. He said he was inconsistent with his finances until July 1 because he didn't know how much money he could spend. The summer heat, he said, slowed down business considerably and they did not receive the traffic they expected in September because the heat persisted. The last flea market was held on September 16, Lowery said, but ASB never officially closed it down. "Student government is more or less just ignoring it. They haven't passed any laws regarding it at all, whether it is on temporary hold or whether they are just 'going to do away with it'." Farrow confirmed Lowery's feelings by saying that ASB 'just dropped it" after Lowery's resignation. He said that ASB will now be making an official statement. The Sunday market had been running every week from 8 a.m. to 3 p.m. from which Lowery received a $50 salary each week.

Ashbrook also points out that the scene is done with dark lighting, with only the frame of the bodies to be seen. ''The girl is only nude for about one ·minute; the boy about three," he explained. Ashbrook has no difficulty doing Equus. "It's a right play; It's a good play; It's a mt>ral play. I feel perfectly on my feet about doing it." The actors have not seemed to be bothered by their costumes in that particular scene either, according to Ashbrook. Dysart, the psychologist, will be portrayed by John Douglas, with Scott Strand as the teen-age boy Alan.

Lisa Costanza will be portraym· g Dysart's colleague; Erynne Lanza plays Alan's girlfriend Jill; Alan's parents will be portrayed by Katherine Charles and Dennis Turner. Actors playing the horses include Christy Davis, Tony DuPont, Nina Jiminez, Michael Lloyd, Ray Rose, and Marta Tallerup. Cost of the play is $6 and $5 for students and senior citizens respectively. One can also purchase a season ticket which includes six plays at both Palomar and MiraCosta Colleges for $20. All performances are at 7:30 p.m., except the Sunday matinee October 21 at 2 p.m.

"Jazz and Classical Greats" will be presented in two upcoming concerts sponsored by the Music Department. The Jazz Band concert will be November 5 at 8 p.m. and the Palomar Community Orchestra performs November 3 at 8 p.m. and again November 4 at 3 p.m. both of which are in the Palomar College Theatre. Robert Gilson, director of the Palomar Community Orchestra, is retu,rning after a two year leave of absence. The Orchestra includes non-professionals in the greater North County area, some from high schools, as well as Palomar students. Orchestra members ages range from 15 to 75 years old which supports the claim that this is acommunityoriented or;chestra Featured in their upcoming performance will be soloist Jerry Folsom, principal horn for the San Diego Symphony. The evening of"Classical Greats" will include: Brahms-"Academic Festival Overture;" Beethoven - "Symphony No. 7;" and Jerry Folsom performing Mozart's "Horn Concerto No. 4." Well known music instructor, Billy Hawkins, will be the new Jazz Band director. Tony Ortega, a native of LA and a member of tile studio and live jazz scene in Southern Californ~!l, will be featured. The first part of the evening will showcase Ortega with back-up provided by the rhythm section, while the second half will include the whole band. Tickets can be purchased through the Theater box office at 744-1156. Season tickets will be available soon and students are advised to purchase them for all Music Department activities.

Artists show work at exhibit San Diego painters have drawn together this month in the Boehm Gallery for the first show of the semester, featuring 11 prominent artists in a collection of painters of Southern California exhibit. "Some Aspects of San Diego Painting or 11 Ways to Paint 23 Works" will be on display until October 24 from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. Monday through Friday. Gallery director Russell Baldwin says, "the works from the 11 artists show realistic art to non-objective art using paint as a medium." The San Diego painters include Tom' · Driscoll, Manny Farber, DeLoss McGraw, Richard Allen Morris, Marjorie Nodleman, Patricia Patterson, Tony Raczka, Roy David Rogers, Lynn Schutte, Jean Swiggett, and Richard Wheelden.


__0_P-iNiON · Fadem 1n1t1at1ves · ·· · J arv1s, are opposed by editor

By Chris Reynolds There are two initiatives on the November ballot that would affect community college funding. Our Board of Trustees have gone on record as being opposed to both measures at their September 25 meeting. Proposition 36, sponsored by Howard Jarvis, the infamous co-sponsor of Proposition 13, is an attempt to insure that the proposal is not circumvented and that loopholes are not ere· ated to offset the drop in funds that resulted from the passage of 13. In essence, Jarvis is trying to protect those same taxpayers that benefited from the cuts to property taxes. For community colleges and the education system as a whole however, it means that lost revenue cannot be regained by other means. According to the minutes of the September 25 Board meeting, state and local monies from existing sources would be reduced by $1.7 billion annually. Further reductions would occur when methods of appraising property were revised. Not only would community colleges' budgets be reduced by these provisions, but districts would be required to refund an estimated $73 million on a one-time basis. What would follow the passage of Proposition 36 is an intensification of competition for the remaining state funds. Thus, pitting college against college, district against district. No one can deny the importance of community colleges to society in general and to their students in particular. Even if a propertyholder were childless, society benefits from an educated populace. Their contributions improve the quality of life for society as a whole. Students have already made an effort to show their committment and desire to improve themselves by paying tuition to attend community colleges. That tuition seems to be a contradiction to the community college's mission of offering higher education to anyone with a high school diploma. Unfortunately, that compromise (the $50 tuition) was necessary to get any funding at all. Now that community colleges and their students have made .fhe sacrifices dictated to

them by Prop. 13 and Governor Deukmejian, any chance to recoup losses through alternative financing hangs in the balance. Weighing the detrimental effects of Prop. 36 to the institution of education and its students against the short-term positive effects it would have on the economy, leads one to speculate. The benefits to major corpOtations and large landholders are not offset by any tenuous hope that the private sector would be so generous as to offer financial assistance, a possibility that seems to have eluded legislators. The second initiative opposed by the Board ofTrustees is Prop. 37, the Fadem state lottery proposal. Philosophical and moral objections are superceded by more pragmatic concerns 'over the legislation. The most substantial fear seems to be that other means of supporting community college expenditures would be replaced by the money collected from a state lottery. That fear was also voiced by Assemblyman Frazee who feels that the legislature would be prone to withdraw some monies from the general fund and replace them with lottery money. If that were to happen community colleges would be no better off than they are now. The intent of the bill is to give additional funds to education, but the initiative, as it is written, does not guarantee that public education shall have the funds. The last problem with the initiative has to do with the fact that a state lottery may not provide a sound financial base. For sure, there is no infallible way to determine what kind of revenue a state lottery would generate, but emperical evidence seems to show it would be considerable. Until the intentions of the proposal are clearly spelled out however, it would not be advisable to support the initiative. Students have an opportunity this November to make a personal statement and send a message to Sacramento. Don't pass up your chance to participate in the democratic process and have your voice heard. Vote.

Humphreys offers Packard opportunity to debate issues Lois Humphreys, Democratic candidate for the Forty-Third Congressional District is challenging incumbent Congressman Ron Packard to a public debate on issues that concern voters in the District. Packard has denied a request from the North Coast San Diego County League of Women Voters to organize the debate, which was to be televised over local community access stations. Packard was quoted in the Carlsbad Journal on June 6th as saying he "hopes they will have the opportunity to debate the issues because voters will see there is a substantial difference between the two candidates." "I am very disappointed that Packard refuses to debate because it is the only opportunity for the voters to see and hear both their candidates," says Humphreys. "A 'rose garden'' approach to campaigning is harmful to the democractic process." Humphreys continues: "Ron Packard has not adequately addressed women's issues, senior citizens' concerns, nuclear arms, school prayer and environmental issues to the people of the Forty-Third District, and they have the right to know how he stands. "Since Congress will be out of session for the month of October, he should be able to make time for something this important. I am asking Ron Packard publicly to meet me and debate these issues." The preceding excerpts are from an open letter to the Telescope from Lois Humphreys,

a former Telescope editor. She describes what she feels are the real issues and what she expects to debate with Ron Packard: "Are you (women) better off today than you were four years ago? And the answer will be no. Women are still only making 59 cents for every dollar a man makes. "The fact that the issue of school prayer and the appearance of Jerry Falwell as a major focus at the Republican Convention shows the Republicans taking a dangerous step to try to mix politics and religion. Voters must ask themselves whose religion will take precedence over another's in the formation of public policy? If it is Jerry Falwell's beliefs, then women are even further demoted in the eyes of the Republican Party, because Falwell thinks women's functions are limited to the home and rearing children. Between Packard, Reagan and Falwell and the platform of the Republican Party, women do not deserve equal rights or pay equity, or the right to choose whether or not to have an abortion.

"He needs to explain to women, seniors, environmentalists and those concerned with the nuclear arms race his past voting record on these issues (which is abominable) and give the voters a clear picture of how he will represent · them if elected again this November. Packard needs to stop hiding from the public, resting his incumbency and start talking to the voters."

MUSIC REVIEW

Boston mUsicians don't live up to real potential By Chris Reynolds If you scrape the rust off your high school

Spanish, you'll find that Del Fuego means 'of the fire'. Unfortunately, the "Del Fuegos" do not live up to that promise of a hot new band. For anyone who is not a rock-a-billy fan, and for some who are, the Del Fuegos' new album "The Longest Day" will be a disappointment. Although the band seems to have all the elements necessary to create a following, their new album falls short of their potential. Using the typical "recorded in a small concert hall" sound employed by nearly all rock-abilly bands, the Del Fuegos seem to be trying to capture that part of all our labidos that likes to "rock out." But, quite frankly, the music is bland. It lacks the more polished commercial sound of the "Stray Cats" that seems to transcend the boundaries of rock-a-billy and has enabled the group to capture a large audience. It doesn't have the "raunch and roll" and gut emotional value evoked by bands like "Rank and File". If any instrument jumps to the forefront and carries the music, it's got to be the drums. The beat, important to all serious hoofers, is not however, backed by any of the flashy, semimelodic licks that make "Stray Cats" so popular. The bass playing is not bad, but it is not thriving. The guitar is pushed into equal footing with all other instruments and seems almost hidden or at least understated. The tunes might be more appropriate as background music for a 1950s "good old boy, down-home southern rock and roll movie." It's the type of music a Ventures fan might like after a couple six packs of beer. It's the same type of music, but the guitar riffs are not as good. Leading off with "Nervous and Shakey" may

be too prophetic. Following it up on the second track is "Backseat Nothin", which is a boppy tune that reminds one of the classic Hoole Boole. But unlike that song it goes nowhere. Next comes "I Should Be the One". It has a strong pulsing beat flavored by castanettes. It's too slow for dance music, but it has an interesting beat. Beatles-type harmonies found on the former track continue on "Missing You". For some it may be more reminiscent of the Everly Brothers. The rock-a-billy motif continues through the first side with "Anything You Want" and "When the News is On". Side two leads off with the title track, "The Longest Day", which is probably the LP's best tune. It sports a good beat, raunchy biting vocals and guitar plucking to match. "Out for a Ride" follows it up nicely, but "Mary Don't Change" carries extra baggage (harmonica and keyboards) that add little or nothing to the song. "Have You Forgotten" may be the Dels worst effort. The tune sounds like a Hank Williams Jr. reject that borders on the satirical. This is really a country and western heart wrencher that wrenches the ears instead. "Have You Forgotten" is better forgotten. "Call My Name", the last song on the album seems to have been turned around. The song finishes with a nice conclusion that might have made a better introduction. On a closing note, it should be remembered that these boys (brothers Dan Zanes, the bands songwriter, lead vocalist and guitarist; Warren Zanes guitarist; Tom Lloyd vocals and bass and Brent "Woody" Geismann on drums and vocals) have all the tools and better efforts might be seen in the future.

High tech exercise program available By Sandi Trevisan Students prepared to go out into the community and create a professional organization of health consultants is a goal that is one step closer to reality for Palomar Community College health instructor Michael Curran. Curran reveals several other goals as he speaks about the new Human Performance Lab on the Palomar campusand theAdultFitness/Health Management certificate program being offered for the first time this fall. Goals include a "fit" faculty and college staff, through athletic team fitness evaluation, hands-on training for students interested in pursuing careers in health-related fields and a complete health testing facility for public use. The accomplishment of the Human Performance Lab itself is already a source of pride for Curran. The facility is complete with the latest in high-tech equipment and computer-assisted health evaluation and counseling capabilities. Curran says Palomar now has one of only two progressive educational health labs in the nation - the other is U.C.S.D. such devices as the "Whirl-AWeigh Underwater Weighmg Tank," the "Dynavit Ergometer," "Cameron Heartometer," "International Standard Goniometer," "Temperature Compensated Wet Spirometer," Apple liE computer and software and a biofeedback unit represent state-of-the-art equipment house in the lab. Sounds good, but just what do they

do? These and other devices monitor blood pressure, lean body mass, vital capacity, heart rate, strength, reaction time, nerve activity, posture, power, steadiness, flexibility, and stress and diet analysis. This is a series of tests that costs more than $400 in the private sector, according to Curran. From concept to funding to installation of equipment and even wallpaper- . ing, Curran has been responsible. Hired by the college in 1969 to develop a · health curriculum, Curran has established not only the lab, but a program that includes 15 instructors, workshops and classes offered on campus and off, on educational television and in conjunction with the department of forestry and state correctional agencies. "The general public has become more health conscious," says Curran. "And it's not a fad. It's a direction of the future." He continues, "As an educational institution, I'm proud to see Palomar's health programs progress with society's needs. If we can protect the general public from mis-information and somehow meditate the extremism in the field of health, we can consider ourselves successful." During the last eight years, Curran and fellow instructors worked together countless hours to evaluate society's health education needs, to formulate test data banks for health classes and to research available tools and testing equipment of the industrial market. They created a textbook that is

Student cooks up a 'first' Greg Phillips was recently selected "outstanding student" at the completion of the first Cook/Ghef Certificate Program offered by Palomar College. Instructor Anne Simmon says of the selection, "With so many talented chefs graduating, the decision was challenging, but", she continued, "Greg's extra effort was the deciding factor." Greg's dedication and desire to becoming a truly great chef has led him recently to a training position at one of the top restaurants ih San Diego County. The Cook/ChefCertificate Program, co-sponsored by the Palomar College Vocational Educational Division and ROP (Regional Occupation Program),

offers continous enrollment with six one-month classes (modules). Each module offers a dif{erent aspect of food preparation, from baking breads and cakes to meat, fish, salad preparation and more. Simmon, a California State University graduate, teaches food preparation at Palomar and Cerritos Colleges, and lectures on nutrition throughout the community. Simmon says of the food industry in California, "At no other time has there been a bigger demand for trained professional restaurant personneL" For more information on the Cook/Chef Certificate Program, call the Vocational Education Division at 744-1150 or 727-7519, Ext. 2274.

Now in its ·s~cond edition, "Fit for Life" is planned for nationwide distribution within the next few years. Donations of large equipment and computer programming by college faculty have also helped to make the lab a reality. With continued faculty involvement and administrative support, Curran has also developed a curriculum of courses that, 'with the use of the fitness lab, leads to a certificate in Adult Fitness/ Health Management. Curran has witnessed employment demands at local health clubs, where he has been a health consultant for several years. "But it's not just health clubs that need trained health advisors," says Curran. "Sports medicine, research, clinical psychology, and hospital counseling offer job opportunities." "Individualized Fitness and Health" is on·e required class within the certificate program. With expert instruction and guidance, students learn one segment of health testing per month and are then provided with hands-on experience testing college faculty, staff and community members on an appointment basis in the new fitness lab.

Newly elected officers express hopes; optimism Four new officers have joined the Associated Student Body (ASB) ranks as a result of the tabulation of votes cast during the October 2 through 4 election. A total of 92 students made the trip to the.poll booths and voted in Danny Pray as the new ASB vice-president; Jim Molinar, Tom Archer, Cam Ottley and Tim Kiely as senators. Senators Tom Archer Working for the best school year possible is Tom Archer, son of political science teacher Pat Archer, whose motto, "A meaniful, responsive, active ASB" helped him into office. Archer's objective for running for the senate seat included hopes to "broaden (his) outlook" as well as plans to improve ASB with his experience, time and resources. Part of that experience, he says, comes from his father's race for Congress for the Forty-Third District in 1982. "I've been passing out political literature since I could walk," he adds. Archer, 18, graduated from Orange Glen High School last semester, quitting his singing group "Opus One", as well as walking away as a California Scholarship Federation life member. Future hopes include a four-year college education and attendance at a seminary before entering into a fulltime Christian ministry.

Multi Cultural Studies programs suffer low enrollment, budget woes In the past three years Multi-cultural Studies Departments, statewide, have come under the scrutiny of Administrations. Low enrollment and budget cuts have been cited as the reasons for cutting back offerings. Yearly offered courses have dropped from 32 in 198182, to 18 last year, to the present 14 classes. In response to this alarming trend, Teresa Hugues filed with Secretary of State, Resolution No. 71 on July 6, 1984. Resolution No. 71 is a bill which promotes nonwhite studies within the state, by requiring ethnic studies for all Associate of Arts degrees or Baccalaureate degrees. Passing through the House of Representatives, the Resolution died on the Senate floor in September or 1984. According to Anthony Guerra, Department Chairperson of our Multi-cultural

Studies department, this piece oflegislation will reappear in January. The problems facing ethnic groups, according to Teresa Hugues, include misconceptions held by a large percentage of the populus. In addition, the ethnic groups, themselves, have acquired thier own misconceptions. Therefore, courses offered through the department are designed "to increase awareness and to create cultural understanding of minorities" said Guerra. Toward this end, the Multi-cultural studies creates a base for easy interaction and increased appreciation of persons from all ethnic groups. Even so, "ethnic groups are perceived as a threat,"stated Guerra. Thus, people may not register for a class dealing with cultural studies. "We want to be part of the solution and not the problem," Guerra added. Also misconstrued is whom such

Patron membership campaign begins For Whom The Bell Tolls - The nine-year old carillon clock tower features songs like, 'The Bells of St. Mary's", "New York, New York" and other tunes that may ring a nostalgic bell. (Photo by Larry Meyer)

Carillon clock tower beautifies campus By Melissa M. Anderson Imagine a fifty foot redwood structure, with four faces, and a song in its heart.

If you see the clock tower, you are on the right track.

This is what Edna Pulver, president of the Patrons in 1973, envisioned while on a trip to Copenhagen, Denmark, as a campus beautification project. It began originally, as a fifteen foot structure sketched by Jeff Jones of the Design Department. But when it was discovered that a structure that small was only considered a sculpture, a 50 foot clock tower was proposed and decided on. Art Department instructor, Harry Bliss, drew up the final plans. Many people gave their time and helped fmance this three year project. Included were the Patrons of Palomar, installers Maas and Rowe, SDGE (San

Diego Gas and Electric), and the late John Barlow. Paul Rowe, of Maas and Rowe, furnished the clock, imported from Amsterdam, and the carillon bells. The four foot clock faces are covered with bronze-colored plexi-glass and the hands and hour markings are double standard gold leaf. Maas and Rowe have installed carillons in such places as Madrid, Spain t~.nd the Opera House in New York. The carillon bells were brought to the college a year before the actual construction of the clock tower was completed and displayed near the cafeteria. The music, supplied by Keith Hanssen shortly before and on the hour is produced by electronic tapes which create bell tones amplified through speakers. The project was completed in 1975 and a dedication ceremony followed soon after.

It's time for the annual Patrons of Palomar membership campaign. Since 1946 the Patrons, a non-profit volunteer organization, has been providing assistance and support in many phases of campus life. Nineteen scholarships are offered each year to incoming and transferring college students; college staff receives support with projects not covered by allocated funds; campus beautification projects are designed and completed; and the college Arboretum is enriched with new plantings and structures and maintained with Patrons' funding. Through membership and donations, the Patrons award 12 scholarships to incoming freshmen , three to continuing students, three to students transferring to four-year institutions, and the John Barlow Art Award.

Annual fund-raising events planne<1 by the Patrons include the "Midwinter Sale" in late November; "Everybody's Book Sale" from December 5 to 7; and the always popular "Pink Elephant Sale,"slated for May 16 and 17. Proceeds from these activities, which are open to the public, help fund Patrons' projects. An afghan raffle and a Patrons' Cookbook sale are also underway. Membership dues and donations are tax deductible. Dues are: single $5; family $10; business/ organization $50 and life membership $100.

Women host talks, seminars Lynette Triere, author/ lecturer, will be the featured speaker Tuesday afternoons from 1 to 2 p.m. at the Women's Center. Triere will speak on "Learning To Make It," October 23; and "Learning to Leave: The Pain of Indecision," October 30. Bi-weekly information seminars, offered by the college Career Center will be on, "Business Internships" from 1 to 2 p.m., and "Entrepreneurs" from 5:30 to 7 p.m. Other seminars on the free 11 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. Tuesday career information series are "Careers Working With Animals" on October 30; "Careers in Fashion," November 13; "Careers in

Psychology and Sociology," November 27 and"Alternative Health Careers" on December4. Also in conjunction with Women's Opportunity Week are career-related activities planned by Palomar today at the Escondido City Library and Mathes Center. Such lectures as "Recycle me one more time -I'm Not Ready to Bake Cookies (Career Options For The Mature Women)," "Communication: Winning a Game With No Rules," "There's Money for Community College Students," "The Future is Yours- How Career Planning Works," and "Children- School- Work" will be presented as part of "Women: Learning and Earning Day."

classes are intended for. Many students believe the classes are only for the "ethnic groups." This is not true. The classes provide a learning environment for all students. Students participate in order to better understand the diversity which exists in American society. A rarely stated fact is that the courses can be used for transfer and for A.A. degrees. Many classes fall under the categories of oral communications, natural science, humanities/ literature, and social science. Therefore, students can increase their social awareness while pursuing an economical path toward a degree. According to Guerra, lack of information on the department has had an effect on enrollment. Also, "tuition has affected enrollment, as a large percentage of students in the classroom are from lower income minority groups." Yet, referenced to in the Hugues Resolution, the courses are to acquaint the student with the unfamilar and allow the student to interact more easily with a better understanding of society. ''The hardest thing to change is peoples' perception," said Guerra, "especially when the perceptions are based on a lack of knowledge"

Disaster plans are distributed on campus Palomar College Safety and Security Commission would like to make all students familiar with the following safety measures: 1. Evacuation Plan 2. Emergency Telephones 3. Campus Closure Plan

A map showing the location of emergency telephones and evacuation assembly areas is now located in each classroom, entrance to other student usage areas, and outside bulletin boards. A disaster or emergency that would necessitate evacuation of the campus shall be directed from four evacuation assembly areas. No one is to go to their car as traffic lanes must be kept open for emergency vehicles. Fifteen emergency telephones have been placed in red boxes on campus. These telephones are a direct line to the switchboard operator to report emergencies only. Look for these boxes on campus so you will be familiar with their location and use. Campus closure shall be announced to students by their instructors in a staggered dismissal plan. Student Patrol will direct traffic for an orderly exit of cars from campus.

Students excavate 800 year old Indian remains By Rich Stiteler

Ever wonder what people did around here 800 years ago? If so, then look no further than the Archeology Department. Currently, Anthropology 5 and 6 classes are conducting actual archeological digs headed by teacher Leslie Quintero. The San Marcos dig being excavated at the present time is just one of"many scattered throughout the area," Quintero says. Among the artifacts uncovered by the students are pieces of pottery, arrowheads, various stone tools, and even seashells and the remains of marine fish.

and so Palomar started excavation. Quintero says that as far as artifacts go, "800 years is the oldest so far in this area." This estimate is determined by sending the specimens found to a laboratory in Florida where they are carbon dated. As an archeological standard, the farther down one digs, the older the material found will be. Quintero explains that even this can be a problem since " rodents burrow underground and mix together the dirt and material which makes it confusing." Made up mostly ot' beginning archeology students, Quintero's group is "looking through their (the Indian's)

Other sites have been excavated along the coastline which may have been inhabited by the same Indians, but archeology teacher Dr. Dennis O'Neil points out that they "can't tie them in clearly yet." O'Neil also heads the Archeological Certification Program here. The program prepares students to go on in the archeological field as paraprofessionals and gives them actual certification as an archeological excavator, or an archeological surveyor when the prescribed courses are taken. If interested in this program, or in any of the archeology classes available, students should contact O'Neil in the Behavioral Sciences Department in W-6.

Volatile Central America toured by Bruce Bishop By Chris Reynolds "I was anxious to go. I was anxious to get there. And I was anxious to leave." Those words might describe the way any one of a thousand American vacationers might feel about their trip.

Yet, the words used by Director of Debate Bruce Bishop do not pertain to any ordinary vacation. What Bishop was describing was his three week tour of Central America; more specifically, Guatemala, El Salvador and Nicaragua. "I've been interested in the Latin American situation for years. I think the average American is naive about the region and its problems. There are several good books on the subject, but reading newspaper and magazine articles and knowing journalism, I felt that there was a possibility that things were different than they were portrayed," said Bishop. "People hypothesized about our reasons for going. Some people thought we were working for the government. We were independent though. We just wanted to fmd out for ourselves. "No one looked at us as though we were crazy and no one actively tried to talk us out of it." However, Bishop did say that the State Department tried to "discourage" them, noting that the region is "incredibly dangerous and volitle for anyone, not just Americans." Bishop also pointed out that embassy personnel assume that American travellers to the region are journalists. ''When they find out you aren't, they look at you like, 'What are you doing here?' There's a lot of suspicion." After spending several days in Mexico City, Bishop and his travelling companion John Theobold, a communications instructor at SDSU, boarded the bus they would take to Guatemala. "We took a bus to Guatemala City rather than a plane so that we could talk to people on the way, to gain additional insight. It was the only time a bus ride was feasible safety-wise."

According to Bishop, "Except for the beautiful landscape and terrain," the beginning of the trip was relatively uneventful. ''The bus was hot and crowded and had no bathrooms. It seemed to make impromptu stops. There didn't seem to be any travel plan. Some stops lasted an hour, some less, some more." Bishop found it easy to strike up conversations with other passengers, stating, "We were unique because Americans don't ride the bus. ''There was no problem talking to people. We were perceived as journalists. We had both personal and political conversations with people. Some personal conversations were even initiated by others. But we were cautioned not to appear as if we were snooping and told 'to be careful who you talk to'." When their bus arrived in Guatemala, Bishop experienced first-hand the militaristic, regimented atmosphere of Central America. ''Within a mile of the border, 14 or 15, 16 year-old troops dressed in full military garb stopped our bus. Apparently, the bus drivers knew what to do. They got out of the bus, put their hands on the bus and spread their legs to be searched. We were all searched from head-to-toe and passports were checked. All the Guatemalan men and women carry national ID cards which were checked. "We also had to pay a passage tarriff. The official seemed to ask for an arbitrary figure. I had the feeling that the fee had probably already been paid when we got our visas, but I paid it anyway and he put a stamp on our luggage and we left. ''The military was everywhere on the roads. Within a couple of miles we were stopped again. At this juncture of our trip, it appeared as though an old man who was on the bus had lost his ID card. The troops (again consisting of what appeared to be 16 year-olds) began pushing him around, hitting him and they knocked him down. We weren't close enough to understand what they were saying, but they were yelling at him. Finally, the bus driver intervened in his behalf and he was

released. "Ali-in-all we were stopped seven times during the five hour trip to Guatemala City. Five times we were searched and twice we were not. "For the most part, the police seemed reluctant to appear as if they were hassling Americans. They seemed to have an air of paranoia about them though. They were worried about rebels." Once in Guatemala, Bishop found the people to be ''friendly" toward Americans. He also noticed that the police seemed to be everywhere. ''We met several Americans there. They were there because of the American businesses in the area." During the course of his visit, Bishop took notes on jargon, examined pamphlets and grafittL "Propaganda was readily available. The government would drop it from the sky, from helicopters and the people would scurry to pick it up. Underground presses and literature were available, but most anti-government propaganda took the form of grafittL There were small group meetings, but no one openly opposed the government." While in Guatemala City Bishop encountered a situation much like the dilemma Jackie Gleason encountered in "Don't Drink the Water", when Gleason inadvertently withdrew his camera to take photos of his family only to discover he was surrounded by Soviet agents. The main differnce between the two instances was that Bishop's was not comical. ''We had gone to theN ational Palace. It's similar to the city administration building, here. It houses the bureaucracy. We started on the frrst floor and worked our way up, asking permission to go up to the next floor prior to continuing. "On the third floor, we found that there was a great panoramic view of the city. So we decided to go up to the fourth floor and see if we could get a picture. When we took out the camera we found ourselves face-to-face with 150 guards. They looked as surprised as we were. It turned out to be their barracks, where they get their orders. We were grabbed and escorted out by guards and what would probably be equivalent to a captain of the guard. We spent a couple of hours in interragation. We were questioned about many things and they checked our passports. Their main concern was whether we had taken any pictures." Bishop found several significant differences between Guatemala, El Salvador and Nicaragua, other than their political ideologies. "I'm talking about personal perception, but I felt as though the (Nicaraguan) army looked on us with suspicion and disdain.

"In Gua~emala City and San Salvador they seem to like Americans for the most part. In Managua we had no problem talking to people. Peolple told us, 'What you read in the papers is not true' and that 'Journalists write their articles from hotel lobbies.' We found most journalists that we met to be conscientious, but they were still looking for a story. "In Nicaragua America is resented. Not Americans as individuals, but the American government. They seem to say, 'Why doesn't Americajust leave us alone?' Which is a good question. What could we possibly want from a country that was levelled by an earthquake in 1972, torn by revolution through the 70s culminating in the overthrow of Somoza. "People walking through the streets see the shacks and the dirty streets and say 'Communism doesn't work.' What they fail to realize is that the government (the Sandinistas) have

They're trying to rebuild their social programs. Instead of trying to build buildings, they're building their society. And it seems as though they hold America responsible for much of their current socio-economic standing." Economic differences also seem to separate Nicaragua from their Latin American neighbors. "I could walk into Guatemala City, for example, and be instantly propelled into the top two percent of their society, economically. In El Salvador and Guatemala we could but anything we wanted, eat in the most expensive restaurants and stay in the most expensive hotels. "In Nicaragua I would be closer to the top one percent economically, but for us there was nowhere to get what we wanted. For their (native) rich it's easier, but they know where to go. For instance, the most expensive hotel in Managua is the Hotel Intercontinental, which was built by Howard Hughes and used by him as a retreat in the 60s. It's the nicest hotel in town, but by American standards it's sub par.

"It didn't appear as though they resented our opulence, but they just wanted to redistribute the wealth in their country." Bishop also found himself confronted with some lucidly ironic imagery at times. "I remember outside the McDonalds in San Salvador they had an armed guard. Probably, because there was a lot of money there. On all the curbs, everywhere, were the symbols of the Christian Democrats with Jose Napoleon Duarte's name inside the stylized fish. It was odd, that symbol everywhere and an armed guard hiding behind a bush nearby. "I also thought it was strange that they should have a Taco Bell in Guatemala City and one in San Salvador. I guess it's not that close to Mexico City, but it just seemed strange." Bishop has written several articles about the trip that await publication until he and Theobold present their findings to a communications convention to, "see what kind of a response we get." In the fmal analysis, Bishop makes the poignant statement, "It was not a fun trip, but I'm glad I went."

Undefeated club among most active on campus By John Castro Incoming students may wonder what clubs are available on campus that are active and fun. Signs point to the "Undefeated Club", sponsored by the Handicapped Services at the HH building.

According to Enabler Service technician Ruth Tait, it's what the ICC (Inter Club Council) calls "the most active club on campus." "This club has roughly about 150 handicapped and non-handicapped people who are students and nonstudents," says Tait. "It gives these people a chance to intermingle socially."

Officers of the club are: Mike Lesher, president; Andy Anderson, vice-president; Tom Rhoades, treasurer; and Michelle Anderson, secretary. The Seventh Annual Physically Limited Sports Day will take place next year on May 18 for a second time at Palomar College. For the last two years, Palomar took frrst place overall. Colleges, along with individual handicapped people from San Diego and Los Angeles counties, will compete. Some events include: backgammon, basketball throwing, checkers, chess, darts, football throw, softball throw, and swimming. Additional wheelchair events include: tennis, relay races, and the obstacle course.

Tait, who voluntarily co-advises the club with Counselor Enabler Ron Haines, is also one of founders of this eight-year-old club.

"Some handicapped people never get the chance to intermingle socially," says Tait. "In this club, they get that chance."

''The club name means that handicapped people are undefeated and that they have the power to go beyond their limits." The club holds an annual banquet in which it gives away two $100 scholarships to members based upon their scholastic aptitude and club participation. These scholarships, one for a returning student and one for a four-year college, are in memory of members who have passed away.

Tait says that sociability of members within the club in the past years has led to four marriages. "Non-handicapped people who would like to help the handicapped can do so in this club by feeding the handicapped, pushing their wheelchairs, and meeting their other personal needs," says Tait. "We are always encouraging new members."

The last activity within the club was a three-day camp-out at Dixon Lake in Escondido during the Labor Day weekend.

Membership fees are $1 per semeste•. Future planned club activities include a swim party on October 6 and an unscheduled trip to Disneyland.

Defense leads gridders again, 30-8 By Paul Taylor For awhile in the Cornets' battle against San Diego City College, October 6, it appeared as if both teams would be better off putting on the gloves and stepping into the ring for a few rounds. Even with All-American receiver Lafo Malauulu ejected from the contest, Palomar found enough firepower to put away the 30-8 in the horneopener for coach Torn Craft's crew. Palomar, now 3-1 on the season, tries for its fourth win when the Cornets travel to Citrus Saturday. Game time is set for 7 p.m. Malauulu headed a list of several players who were booted from the game as tempers from both sides got hotter than the weather. In Palomar's previous game, a 22-3 loss to Southwestern, the Cornets' Chris Batchelor was sacked 11 times as they totalled -66 yards rushing. Things were better against San Diego City, but not so much. Batchelor was sacked seven more

times for 44 yards in losses, and Palomar amassed only 25 yards on the ground in 28 tries. The running game was expected to be improved dramatically with the return oHop back Leroy Lefiti. But Lefiti caught a pass from Batchelor on the first play from scrimmage for eight yards and left the game, apparently aggravating a bruised shoulder. Meantime, with the ground game, well, grounded Batchelor was forced to go to the air. He completed 15 of27passesfor 161 yards and two touchdowns, but it took a tremendous play from a member of the defense to get things going for the Cornets. With a third down and 17 situation at the San Diego 12-yard line late in the first quarter, City quarterback Bruce Anderson threw a pass that lineman Tony Corley intercepted and returned eight yards for the games' first score.

That seemed to awaken the Palomar team. After the ensuing kickoff, the Cornet defense limited the visitors to three yards in three plays, forcing a punt.

Malauulu headed a list of players from both teams who were ejected from the game as tempers from both sides got hotter than the weather. Palomar took over at its 31. Three straight rushes got a first down, and on second-and-eight from the 4 7 Craft resorted to some razzle dazzle. Malauulu took the ball on a reverse, pulled up and arched a spiral to a wide-open Darren Phillips, who cruised into the end zone, completing the 53-

Lack of speed hurts soccer team By Paul Taylor Judy Mazzarella has all but given up hope of catching the best team in the conference. That's not unusual, though, because so has just about everyone else. The women's soccer coach here has a solid team, one that will probably fmish in the upper echelon of the conference. Everyone has been chasing the best team in the conference since the inception of the sport. And now, in their fourth year, no one-nobody-has beaten El Camino. "They've never lost since the start of women's soccer," Mazzarella said. "Lots of people have tried, but nobody's been able to beat them. They have been the

Loedel breaks school mark; paces po·lo-ists By Mike Martello Water polo coach Don Hubbard is a true believer in scouting both the players as well as the pool they swim in. Although it sounds ·o dd, Coach Hubbard has found out the size of the pool is just as important as the size of the athletes. Take the October 9 game against Citrus. Playing in a 34ft. wide pool, (half the size of the Palomar 60 ft. horne pool), the locals found it very hard to adapt to the crowded form of play. At halftime the Cornets were trailing 9-2. "As soon as they learned the ins and outs of the pool, they showed great ability to climb right back into the thick of things," says Coach Hubbard. They outscored Citrus 8-4 in the second half. But the late surge proved to be futile as they wound up losing 13-10. Despite the different pool sizes Coach Hubbard has noted strong play from sophomores Peter Loedel and Chris Koon. Koon has proved to be the anchor of a very fme defensive team. "Chris stands out as a fme player," says Hubbard. He is the last guy between the ball and goal and he can't make a mistake. Others can miss their man, but if Chris does all you hear is that thud of the ball going into the net." Koon saved 16 shots during the Redlands game, which saw the Comets rallying for a 20-14 victory. Loedel also played a big part in the Redlands game by scoring a Palomar record of 10 goals. Loedel made each goal count as he sent the game into overtime with a sensational steal and shot. Loedel's heroics carne in the closing minute of the play.

Southern California champions every year, and they will be again this year." Mazzarella is not holding out hopes of catching El Camino, but her team has played well. Although the team's record through three games was just 1-2, the losses came against El Camino and Orange Coast, the two frontrunners in the conference. "We played well in the game against Mt. San Antonio," Mazzarella said. "They just seemed to be moving and talking a lot better than in the past. Against El Camino (a 6-0 loss) the defense actually played very well. The score could have very easily been 12-0. El Camino is just so good that they took a lot of shots on goal. Our goalie

zarella thought one of the team's problems was a lack of conditioning. Because of the very hot weather, she didn't run the players very hard. As a result, the coach felt other teams were out-hustling the Comets. "I ran the girls real hard during practice last week and the week before, but it didn't seen to do a lot of good. They were stilljust standing around in the games."

did a great job. She made a lot of saves. "One of the problems has been that the halfbacks and wings are not staying wide enough, and they're not moving off the ball real fast." At the beginning of the season, Maz-

First, we have a height disadvantage, most of our fullbacks are pretty small. Then, we also have a general lack of speed. For most of the instances, though, they can compensate for that by being smart players.

The defense, though, has not been standing around. "They've been doing a good job," Mazzarella said. "We have a good one. But there are two things that have been hurting us.

yard play. Malauulu then hit Jamie Wynn for the conversion, giving Palomar a 15-0 advantage. After Palomar took over on their 10 with 2:02 left, Batchelor orchestrated a brilliant drive to put the Cornets on the scoreboard once more just before the halftime.

for the Comets this season, the defense again played well. Four of Anderson's passes were picked off and linebacker Robert Tialavea led a unit that recorded 17 tackles for losses. He had five himself.

On the first play the former San Dieguito High School product found Paul Hadley for a 45-yard gain. After Rey Nicholas got eight on a reverse, Batchelor hit a diving Malauulu for 23 yards to the 14 and a first down with 1:17left. The 90-yard drive was conducted in eight plays and consumed just 1:28.

An Anderson pass les for losses, having five himself. was intercepted by Wynn, who returned the ball 30 yards to the six. On the next play, Batchelor connected with Nicholas in the end zone for the touchdown, 2:50 before the end of the contest. As has been the case for the Comets this season, the defense again played well. Four of Anderson's passes were picked off, with Wynn, Corley, Paul McGowen and Robert Gayle getting the interceptions. In addition, San Diego was held to 61 yards rushing in 37 attempts.

LAFO

• • •

By Paul Taylor Lafo Malauulu always knew what he wanted to do when he got older. He didn't want to become President of the United States, win a Nobel Peace Prize or have a biological theory named after him. He just wanted to play football wide receiver to be exact. Nothing big, which is good because Lafo Malauulu is not a big guy at 5 feet 9 inches. So he played. And played and played some more. Now Malauulu is the leading pass catcher amongjunior college receivers in the nation. Numero uno. A year ago the former El Camino High School star hauled in 76 passes for 1,180 yards. That not only broke Jimmy Clark's four-year old school record by two, but it also earned Malauulu second team All-American honors. It wasn't alwayg like that. That's because at El Camino, there was something better to do than pass the ball and that was watch Leroy Lefiti run. Lefiti rushed for more than 1,500 yards his fmal year. Still though, Malauulu led the team in receiving in both his junior and senior year, setting all kinds of school records in the process. And he joined his teammate and good friend Lefiti on the All-County team. Not on offense, but on defense as a cornerback, where he covered potential receivers better than an insurance policy. Yet, seeing other teams pass the ball more times in one drive than El Camino did in a game must have made him wish just a little bit. "Sure, I wished we were a passing school like Carlsbad and Orange Glen," Malauulu said. "But how good I was last year is because ofEl Camino. I had to work harder, I learned to block for the running backs. "At El Camino it was all Leroy, and it should have been. He's a great back and I'm glad he got all those yards. I shouldn't be all that sad anyway, be-

little

cause I was the leading receiver both years and I have all the school receiving records." Yet when he was recruited by the colleges after high school, a strange thing happened - all of them wanted him to play defensive back. This did not please the talented former Wildcat. "I knew I could play Division I (major college) at wide receiver," he explains. "There was no doubt in my mind I could play. I thought that was the position where I could use more of my abilities." There was one recruiter who had confidence in Malauulu as a receiver - Tom Craft, then-incoming rookie coach at Palomar. So the diminutive dynamo decided to ply his "craft" for the Comets. The rest is history. "I expected Palomar to throw the ball a lot, with the background Craft has," Malauulu said. "But the numbers did surprise me a little bit. I guess I was more or Jess showcased." Malauulu has the confidence in himselfto match the gargantuan numbers he compiled last year, as all skilled athletes must. "I really have confidence in my abilities, and I'm pleased I caught as many balls as I did, but I try not to think that much about it. I'm glad other people notice, but it doesn't go to my head." There aren't many surprises that affected him during that first year, either. "As an incoming freshman I got a lot of publicity, and the offense was built more around me than I thought it would be. This year, though, I know what to expect." He should expect a lot, like a minimum of double coverage and triple coverage, more often than not. And what about the pressure to beat the defense? "I don't really feel it (the pressure, not the defense). The coaches have

told me I'm going to get double coverage, but I don't really feel any pressure. Besides, it'lljust open things up for the other people. The big thing I've got to do is be steady and do the things I know I can." Malauulu knows he can catch the ball, and has set some pretty high goals for himself in 1984-50 catches,1,000 yards, and10 touchdowns. So far, he is more than on his way to attaining those figures. Through three games, Malauulu has caught 14 passes for 231 yards and two scores. And it's no wonder according to his coach. "He's got so many strengths," Craft says. "But I think the thing that really makes him stand out is that he has very good speed- he runs a legitimate 4.5 for 40 yards - but he's also very quick and there's a big difference between the two. He has also got real quick hands. I could probably count the number of passes he dropped last year on one hand.

"The thing about Lafo is that he's got all the natural ability in the world great speed, quickness, range, tremendous jumping ability - but he also catches passes that a lot of people could only dream of catching." Of course, it's not only the ability to catch the ball, but what he can do with it afterwards that really excites Craft. "He has that rare gift of being able to take that quick slant pass and turn it into a big play. I don't think there's any doubt that he's one of the top receiver recruits in the nation." One of the most exciting ones, too. And in keeping with that style Malauulu is easy to get excited also. Doesn't take much. Just the little things. Like touchdowns. "I like scoring, I really get excited about it," he said. "Playing receiver is so much mental, too. When a defensive back gives me a big hit, I like to pop right back up to show him he didn't hurt me, even if he did."

He should know how about playing receiver. He's done it long enough. But then again, there is little that Malauulu can remember wanting to do more than playing receiver. "Oh yeah, ever since I was a kid I wanted to be a wide receiver. And I know I'll keep playing next year, only on the college level." He says he isn't paying much attention to the attention all the colleges are giving him, but it's kind of hard to ignore. Schools such as Fresno State, Purdue and BYU are the early inquirers. "I'd be lying if I said I didn't put a lot of thought into it (college recruiters). It's in the back of my mind. I know there are going to be a lot of recruiters, but I want to have a good year and leave Palomar on a good note. I can't let the attention get to me though, I have to keep the right perspective." Just as his individual successes are important to Malauulu, so is his team's. And he wants to see the Comets "go 8-2, go to a bowl game and win the conference. Craft deserves it. He's a really good guy." And hopefully Lafo Malauulu is deserving of a professional football career, something he admittedly didn't put much thought into before last year. "I had my doubts about it during my senior year," he said. "But after last season it crossed my mind more. That is something that is probably everybody's dream." It is not something, though, that will plague him for the rest of his life if it doesn't happen. "I want to earn my degree at college (business administration or business marketing). It's not like everything in my life is based on my making the pros. Even if I did make it, I'd like to get into business, maybe work for a firm. That's really what I want. I just want to be stable." Defenses will not be stable with Malauulu running crazy against them.

Wrestlers open quest for second state title By Paul Taylor Life should be full of the problems facing John Woods. Pity Woods. The poor soul doesn't know which lineup he will use to win the state junior college wrestling title. Actually the toughest task for Woods this season may be just keeping keeping his team from getting overconfident, because it appears as though the only team that can possibly beat Palomar is, well, Palomar. Last year the Comets lost only one match and cruised to the state championships. Woods has fine returning

Rick Lambert

sophomores from that team, but the thing that really excites ·him is the crop of incoming freshman. "This is probably the best group of freshman I've ever had," Woods said. "We got a lot of guys who were state champions or close to it." Heading the list of hearlded freshman is a pair of California state titlistsKim Kestner from Vista High at 180 pounds and Rick Lambert of San Marcos at 170. There is also 134 pounder Harold Coleman, the Nevada state champion; Eric Talent, second in the Washington state tourna- ment at 126; and Sean

Jorgensen, finished sixth in the California tourney from Mar Vista. These freshman join a tremendous group of sophomores, led by a pair of former Mt. Carmel High standouts. Jeff Hockaday placed second in last year's state tournament at 142 pounds while JackDubyplaced second at 150 along with 158-pounderSteve Bowden, an All-American selection a year ago with Duby. Mike Rowden at 167 and heavyweight Jaime Martinez, both of whom placed sixth in the state among junior colleges a year ago, also return.

.Red-shirter Parry Fitch at 134, Robert Hamilton and Rob Goveia at 180, Tom Mejia at 190 and Mario Moreno, a third- place fmisher in the region in 1983-at 118 are also back "We have nine returning sophomores," Woods said. "Plus we've got that great group of freshman. I think this could be one of the strongest teams I've had." Strong enough to repeat as state champs? "I don't know. It kind of depends on everyone else. Cypress was second in the state last year, and the team that was third got two high school state

champions that I'm aware of. "But I've got a real sound group. They work hard; they're loyal. This team has more balance and talent and a higher quality of people than maybe ever before." Woods is even quick to shoot down the popular myth that it is not easy to win with a young team. "They say you can never win with freshman, but we did that last year and I think we'll do it again. But it's going to be a lot tougher. I'm real optimistic, though."·
