Campus transit center proposed By Cyndie Claypool

Before next fall a North County Transit Center may be built near the entrance of the campus, if approved by Palomar College's Governing Board. On Nov. 4 at 2 p.m. in the college theater, the transit district will hold a public oratory to present its proposal for the center. This discussion will be similar to the one featured at a special Board meeting on Oct. 15 when the district presented the proposal with its nine possible locations for the brick passenger shelter, benches and landscaping. According to Dr. George Boggs, president of Palomar College, this bus district would eliminate the hazardous problems posed by the current offcampus bus stops. He explained that one person has been killed trying to cross Mission Road, while a few others have been injured coming from or going to the bus stop across the street from the college. The proposed transit center would create express bus routes to and from the campus, especially benefitting the route from Escondido which makes frequent stops. According to the transit district, the public will also benefit from this proposal because of reduced subsidies for transit, reduced auto emission, lower auto usage and increased mobility for the transit dependent. The two possible locations for the site are both located off the staff/ visitors parking lot. One site would be positioned at the right hand of the parking entrance, while another site would be stationed in front of the Palomar College Theatre. According to the transit district, "...Palomar College is the single largest passenger volume stop in the city. Approximately 25 percent of all transit trips in San Marcos have an origin or destination at Palomar College." It also states that the three current routes to Palomar, routes 320, 302 and 341, produce a total of 775 daily boardui.g and 788 deboarding in the city. The cost of constructing the facility, estimated at $452,000, will be covered

by the transit district's grant money, according to Boggs. On Oct. 22 at the Governing Board's regular meeting, several items were discussed and/ or resolved. Four of the resolutions approved dealt with an energy management system, including the installation of a Cogeneration Power Plant on campus. This will provide improved heating, cooling and electricity. Another approved item was the Class Auditing Policy, originally created by the state because of the newly implemented Repetition Policy. The auditing policy states that: except in specific situations, an audit fee of $15 per unit will be charged; no student auditing a course will be permitted to change his/ her enrollment in that course to receive credit for the course; priority in class enrollment shall be given to students to take the course for credit towards a degree or certificate; classroom attendance of students auditing a course shall not be included in computing apportionment. According to Boggs, the fee for the courses is mandated since state funds do not cover the audited courses. The policy will be in effect for the spring semester and is on a one-year trial basis. Also at the board meeting, the trustees unanimously approved a leave of absence requested by Norman Price, director of student activities. The leave, without pay or fringe benefits, was granted from Oct. 23, 1985 through June 13, 1986. He is currently working in a temporary position as a dean in the same field in Fullerton. Although only labeled as informational on the agenda, a proposed sabbatical leave policy sparked a twohour discussion. The document requiring the faculty member to specify in detail why he or she is taking a leave of absence was formed and approved by the Faculty Senate and Professional Growth Committee. A special workshop on the proposed sabbatical leave policy was held for the faculty on Oct. 25. Trustees are scheduled to consider adaptation of the policy at their Nov. 12 meeting.

Mail-in registration starts next month By Paulette Oberle Looking forward to mail-in registration for all students, Herman Lee, director of admissions and records, says the process will begin with a sample group of continuing students for the spring 1986 semester. The first group to participate in the mail-in registration will be those who ( 1) are registered this semester on campus and (2) have 15 or more units

recorded between the beginning of the '83 summer semester and Sept. 1, 1985. "We estimate that 6,000 will take part in the mail-in registration process," says Lee, "and will include students at Mount Carmel as well as Camp Pendleton classes and noncredit community education students." The admissions office is developing

RAISES FUNDS FROM COMMUNITY

Music department expands support By Wendy Williams

Gustav Mahler, Johannes Brahms and Heinrich Schutz are among the composers whose works will be performed by the music department during its fall season. According to the new music department program coordinator, Susan Jarvis, the goals of the concert season are to "expand the network of financial and audience support for Palomar productions and get the word out to North County audiences that they have a great arts bargain in their own backyard." To accomplish this goal, the Palomar College Theater volunteer auxiliary has been expanded and a Friends of the Performing Arts group developed to raise funds from among local businesses and service and community organizations. In these days of community college cut-backs and budget constraints, says Jarvis, "the truth of money must be seriously considered." "The arts are perhaps the most civilizing influence on humankind. Our

department's performing wing has a fine reputation for championing classical music and has been recognized accordingly. Our faculty includes many reknowned performing artists who also serve as conductors and directors." For the first concert of the music season on November 2 and 3, two reknowned musicians as well as students and faculty will perform in "A Family Celebration". Leo Kirkell and his daughter, Lorie, will perform a Brahms composition on the violin and cello. This fatherdaughter team have impressive musical backgrounds. At the age of 16, Leo Kirkell began his career as the youngest musician . of any orchestra after joining the Minneapolis Symphony and studying under Adolph Beatty in Philadelphia The next year, he became a member of the Pittsburgh Symphony. Since then, he has been involved in radio, theater orchestras and chamber music as a free-lance musician.

His daughter, Lorie, has become a fine musician in her own right. Having studied extensively on the East Coast under Bernard Greenhouse, she received her master's degree from the University of California, San Diego. She has had masters classes with many music greats such as Mstislav Rostropovich and Nathaniel Rosen. Soon, Lorie will appear in the NOVA series on PBS. Also performing for the music department's first concert will be Dr. Joe Stanford, a music teacher and reknowned baritone. Playing back-up for both the Kirkells and Stanford will be the Palomar Community Orchestra conducted by : Robert Gilson. On Nov. 10, Professor Jim Jorgenson will conduct the Palomar Concert band. Jorgenson says that the band has become "one of California's leading community college bands. We anticipate a fine returning membership and many of the finest young musicians from local schools and new musicians just moving into our area."

To celebrate the 400th birthday of Heinrich Schutz, The Palomar Chorale led by Billy Hawkins will present spirituals and folk songs on Nov. 16 and 17. Also in November, the chairman of the music department, Dr. Peter Gach, will perform a piano concert on the 23rd. During the month of December, two special presentations have been planned. On Dec. 9, Billy Hawkins will lead a jazz concert. A Christmas presentation has been scheduled for Dec. 15 by the Palomar Community Orchestra led by Robert Gilson, the Chorale led by Dr. Joe Stanford and a children's choir. They will perform Arthur Honegger's "Christmas Cantada." Tickets for the season concerts are $5 for general admission and $4 for students and senior citizens with season tickets available for the Orchestra-Chorale season at a discount. Phone orders and ticket information are available by calling the Palomar College Theatre Box Office at 744-1156, Monday through Friday from 12 to 5 p.m.

a mailer to be sent to eligible students and plans the mail-in process from Dec. 2 through Jan. 2. Those receiving the mailer packet will be able to complete the registration process at home and mail it in. Since the registration staff does not want to interpret what students want to take, Lee urges those using mailin registration to read the instructions carefully. Students will be asked to indicate a first and second choice on the form. If both classes are closed, they will receive notification and be put on the waiting list of their first choice. If there are no openings, students can make schedule adjustments on MAD (mail-in adjustment) Day. Lee advises students to mail in early for best selection of classes. There will also be a box outside the admissions office to drop off applications. "We hope that everyone who receives the mailer will take part in the mail-in process. Experience at other schools shows that it is convenient to students, and it takes away the pressure to make decisions about classes in a crowded and noisy setting to the convenience of your own home," says Lee. All continuing students will be sent either a postcard or mailer. Those receiving a postcard will be asked to give intent to register and will be assigned a time to come in. Spring schedules should be ready by the last week in November and will be available in the bookstore, library and admissions office. Lee anticipates registration for the entire campus will be on a mail-in basis for the summer, 1986 semester. However, new students will continue to be required to register on campus and are encouraged to take part in orientation sessions prior to application.

PLAY REVIEW

'Rimers' sheds light on question of morals By Paul Taylor Don't like being confused? How about the feeling of your head spinning? Or watching something that appears to be more complicated than Rubik's Cube? What about being cultured. Don't like that, either? Then don't see the second play of the Palomar/MiraCosta Theater Association season, "The Rimers of Eldritch." But if you do see it, be prepared for something a little out of the ordinary. Welcome to Abstract Theater. Directed by Kelly Kissinger, "The Rimers of Eldritch," which runs through Nov. 10, is about murder, morality, even martyrdom. It is done through a series of flashbacks , up until the final moments of the play, when the actual murder - and murderer - is revealed. No scenery is used throughout the entire showing, and only two props. In addition, the entire cast is on the stage until the very end. All of this, combined with the series of flashbacks and the fact that several lines are repeated at different times, make this a very confusing, complicated, difficult - and brilliant - play. The setting is based in the small, midwestern coaltown of Eldritch in 1967. The murder and trial, and subsequent flashbacks , are all centered around two people. Skelly Manor (played brilliantly by Brad Snyder) , the perversive but kind and greatly misunderstood transient, and Eva Jackson, the young, innocent and naive cripple who turns out to be not so young, innocent and naive. Kissinger is successful in this unusual play, thanks mostly to his exceptional use of lighting. There are, in Kissinger's estimation, about 150 lighting changes during the show, most of which are computer-operated. "I do a lot of comedy plays," he said. "But as far as drama is concerned, this was definitely the hardest one for me to do. In comedy, the timing is important for a joke, so it's hard in that sense, but everything was crucial in this play. If you gave the audience too much time to think, you would lose it. "It's basically a question of morality and people's values. There isn't one 'good' person in that whole town, except for maybe Skelly. The way that whole town acted toward Skelly was scary, but that's the way it is in small towns. Everybody knows everybody else and they all act as one. It's pretty scary." Kissinger praised the performance of Skelly Manor, as well he should. "This is the second one of my shows Brad

Dear Editor: Applause to Pat Larmer and the cast of "Inherit the Wind" for an intense show. This performance has held true to the author's most prominent theme: an exhortation for the viewer to look closely at what he believes and why. Sadly, the script has squeezed every person with a belief in God into the same mold. The mold is labeled, "One of those ignorant, closeminded lemmings who still takes seriously an outdated and disproven baloney book called the Bible." An ultimatum is implied: "You can either think-or you can believe in God." Viewers should appreciate the bold challenge of "Inherit the Wind" k> rise above bigotry and consider new and foreign ideas but also recognize the indeed narrow-minded view of God-fearing people presented by Lawrence and Lee. Viewers should also understand that many people have chosen to believe in and follow Jesus Christ only after thoughtfully weighing Him against all other "gods," even the gods of science. -David S. Domingo

has done," Kissinger said. "And he's really come a long way, a real long way.lt took about two hours every night for makeup because he's really a young, good-looking guy. But I thought he did very well." Oceanside's Lisa Sunstedt is Eva Jackson, perhaps the principal character of the show. The murder happens when she seduces her romantic interest, Robert Conklin (Russ Noel) in the woods. Conklin then attempts to rape her and is stopped by Skelly, who is shot. Sunstedt, a 1985 graduate of El Camino High School, is brilliant in the role of Eva. Her performance is even more exceptional when you realize that it is her first major dramatic role. " It was my first real challenge, " the diminuitive (5-l) Sunstedt said. "It takes a lot of energy out of you to play a character like that. I've got to be innocent and naive at the beginning and then seductive and then change back again at the end." Unusual script and lack of scenery and props made it difficult for Sunstedt at first. "At first, I was a little disappointed because I like to use a lot of props. But then, as it went on, I realized that the lighting really does a lot for you and that acting doesn't have to be all lace and big costumes and scenery and everything. Acting comes from within, and this was more of a challenge, because basically you're all alone as an actor." Working with the entire cast at all times on the stage made everyone dependent on everyone else, too, which makes the play all the more impressive. "Just through the first week of the play, we've already put in at least 75 hours on it," Sunstedt said. "We've got the timing down, but you're still dependent on the person who comes before you. It was a lot of fun , though, I liked it." Her stellar performance served another purpose for the 18-year-old Sunstedt, though. "It kind of broke the ice for me. I'm not afraid to do anything now. When Kelly told me I was going to seduce someone like I did, I didn't think I could, because that wasn't me. But that's the whole thing; that wasn't me, it was Eva. So now I don't think I'm as inhibited as I used to to be." "There's a purpose to a play like this one," Sunstedt explained. "There's a message. I still am picking up things each time I see the play. There a lot of double meanings in the lines, and that's why a lot of them are said two or three times during the play. You learn a lot from it. "And from playing in it. It takes a lot of energy out of you. Physically as well of mentally and emotionally, as you can tell."(She has bruises all over her arms from the seduction-and-assault scene). Sunstedt hopes to parlay her fine opening performance into an acting career, possible attending the Academy for Dramatic Arts in Pasadena.

Quick success irritates By Anne Husk There is a special place in the foul recesses of my heart for people who achieve success too quickly. People like the woman who sends a collection of high school essays to the local paper and is offered a column, the man who repairs and sells a used car at such a profit he's been turning over cars and bucks ever since and the couple whose vegetable garden is so admired, they give up bio-chemistry and open a lucrative, roadside stand. In case you're wondering about my definition of quick success, it's anyone succeeding faster than I am. Now, I'm not against success. In fact it's one of my favorite stories. Success sweated for, yearned for, success which dangled just out of reach for years. I love to hear of people making good. I just want to hear they almost

died making it. I want to hear of jobs neglected, laundry unwashed and bills unpaid to buy postage, tools and pesticides. I want to hear of scientific theories that were laughed out of the laboratory, authors who published on their 729 try and inventors who had to borrow a shirt to leave the house. I want to read about photographers who couldn't give pictures away for Christmas and dress designers who started out on doggie sweaters. I don't want to hear abut people who went for a walk and had success follow them home and hang around under their windows. I want to be inspired, not jealous. For those of you tempted to tell your story of an amazing slide onto easy street, I have just one piece of advice before you turn to me. Lie.

'Jagged Edge' is sharp By Colleen Riedell Heralding Glenn Close's acting prowess at this point would be nothing if not repetitious. Her latest movie,"Jagged Edge" states, once and for all, that she is the actress of the 1980's. While "Jagged Edge" has many good points, among them an excellent cast, a very tight, interesting script and a detailed, evenly paced direction, it is ultimately a showcase for Close. Opening with the brutal murder of a wealthy newspaper heiress, the audience is spun into many details that leave one completely clueless. The woman's widower (Jeff Bridges) is indicted, hires Close to defend him and soon

they begin an affair. Many questions are presented to the audience. What really happened? Could charming if a bit adulterous Bridges have done that to his wife? Why does Close not take criminal cases anymore? What is her connection with the district attorney beyond a past work experience? As the movie twists and turns, one becomes caught up in a tangled web. Though most of the film is pre-trial/lovestory, when the trial does begin, it was worth the wait. The acting here is Oscar caliber. Close commands her scenes, especially the court scenes, while Bridges brings out warmth and never flinches as the maybe guilty, maybe maybe-not husband. Peter Coyote as the selfserving district attorney is appropriately despicable. The entire supporting cast is completely credible and convincing. Joe Esterhas' script has unexpected twists and never takes a cheap way out. The story moves quickly and is exciting. He is acquainted with the 1940's style mystery-romance movies and emulates the style welL The direction by Richard Marquand, while not perfection, is exemplary to young directors, primarily because it is a good illustration of how to make a thriller-mystery successfully. Many close-ups on Close make the most of her virtually transparent face, giving away her every thought and emotion. The climax is both shocking and jolting. In the mold of movies 40 years forgotten, "Jagged Edge" is a bright reappearance of the good old movies that really entertain, though it's Close that really shines.

Second half again is grids' downfall By Paul Taylor For the first 30 minutes of Palomar's Mission Conference football game Saturday afternoon against Saddleback at San Marcos High School, the Comets smelled an upset. Entering the contest, the Gauchos were a perfect 7-0 for the season and ranked second in the country among junior colleges in some polls. Statistically, it matched the two best teams in the conference, although the Comets had dropped three of four conference games going in. Palomar led the conference in total defense, allowing 214 yards per game, and in total offense, with 380 yards per game. Saddleback was second in the conference in defense (221 yards/ game) and offense (379 yards/game). With freshman Jonathan Mitchell starting in place of Ryan Beadle, the Comets, after falling behind 7-0, scored three touchdowns in less than four minutes to assume a twotouchdown advantage early in the second quarter. Even a Saddleback score four minutes later didn't deter the upsetminded Comets' hopes. The second half did, though. For the third straight week, the inability to put together two solid halves of football in one game - and the inability to hold onto the football - cost Coach Tom Craft's team a win as the Gauchos came from behind, 3019. The Comets turned the ball over seven times in the game, four times times after the intermission. In the first half, Saddleback totalled 184 yards in ofense but the Comets were right behind with 150. The Gauchos completely dominated both sides of the line in the second half, though, rolling up 255 yards in offense, including 172 on the ground. Meantime, the defense was limiting Mitchell and the Comets just 51 yards, including a minus one yard rushing. The Gauchos finished with 439 yards in total offense to just 201 for Palomar and rushed for 239 yards in averaging 4.3 yards for each of their 56 attempts (entering the game, Palomar had allowed an average of

only 1.6 yards per rushing attempt). The Comets could manage only 54 yards on 31 tries (1.7 average) after averaging 4.2 yards per carry in the previous six games. Mitchell, the former Orange Glen standout, never did flnd his groove. He did complete nine of his 19 firsthalf attempts, but for only 95 yards and a pair of interceptions. In the second half, though, nothing went right for him. He completed only five of 13 tries for 52 yards and three interceptions. He fmished 14-of-32 for 147 yards and a touchdown with five interceptions. His counterpart, Jason Schmid, drove the Comets crazy with his passing and running abilities. He hit on 14 of 23 passes for 200 yards and three touchdowns (he now has 19 touchdowns on the season) and scrambled for key runs of 15 and 45 yards. After Saddleback scored on a 67yard Schmid-to-Jeff Bielman bomb with 1:10 left in the fust quarter to make it 7-0. But the Comets would score all of their points in a span of 3:43. Taking the ball on their 25 after the kickoff, Mitchell engineered an eightplay, 75-yard drive, all of which was done in just 2:05. The drive featured a sensational diviing catch over the middle by Harold Collins of a pass for 19 yards and an even better catchand-run by Jerald Demery on which he did a 360-degree spin, caught the ball with one hand against his hip and continued on for 16 yards. Casey Malauulu hulled in from a yard out and the Comets were within one. On the second play from scrimmage following the kickoff, Schmid fumbled the snap from center and George Crouch fell on the loose football at the 15. Leo Toloumu went the distance on a sweep and the Comets were up 137. After three straight incompletions, Tom Kaumeyer's 26-yard punt return set the Comets up at the Saddlebak 26-yard line. On a third-and-13 play from the 19, Mitchell fired a perfect pass to Demery in the back of the end zone for the score and Palomar was up 19-7.

Loss a 'blessing' for wrestlers By Paul Taylor Some things never change. Through the various stages of human life, those times when the inevitable must be faced. School, bills, broccoli, Mondays, marriage, taxes, all of these things are not what the average person would look forward to. Unless, of course, the average person was a masochist. Being a junior college wrestler is much the same way, and having to face John Woods' Palomar squad. Not too many have done it with success. And those who have done so over the years have found out what it's like the next time the two teams met. Almost a fate worse than death. The Comets were upset by Cerritos on Oct. 30 in a dual meet 27-15 in a match that was much closer than the score would indicate. Following that loss, the teams squared off against other teams in the Cypress Tournament Nov. 2. It wasn't close. Palomar placed wrestlers in the top three in all 10 weight classes and rolled to its third tournament title without a loss this season. "I think the loss to Cerritos kind of helped us," Woods said. "We sort of regrouped. It wasn't like they beat us real bad anyway. It was 21-15 going into the fmal match and we had to go for a fall, which we didn't get. "But the guys took that loss and learned from it. I believe a loss can be a great learning experience and it was for the guys. They did real well in the tournament. They just couldn't do anything wrong." Palomar totalled 97lh points, far ahead of second-place Cerritos, which had 76. Cuesta was a disappointing third. "I think our loss the Wednesday before the tournament had a lot to do with how well we did," Woods said. "None of my teams have ever won a

Saddleback. The Comets limited the Olympians to only one third-period goal for the win.

What started as a season of rebuilding is now turning out as a season of promise for the women's soccer team. Despite losing to Golden West 1-0 on Nov. 1, the Comets are coming together as a team. During games they'll start slowly and accelerate at the end. A team that started with 11 rookies, almost as many on the injured list and no real bench strength now shows more than just a year of rebuilding. They show a stronger bench and will most likely finish better than predicted.

state title without a loss. It's better to get it out of your system, so you don't have that much pressure. Now everybody's all positive. We placed all 10 guys in the top three, which we've never done before." Andre Bartlett at 118 pounds defeated the second- and sixth-seeded wrestlers in winning his first three matches before losing in the fmals. At 126, Harold Coleman was third, as was Dave Watts at 150, Tom Mejia at 190 and heavyweight Paul Miramonges, who defeated the wrestler who was third in the state a year ago. Other wrestlers losing in the finals of their weight class were Shawn Jorgensen at 134, 142-pounder Jeff Hockaday, Sam Mason at 158, Rick Lambert at 167 and Mark Cavassa at 180. Hockaday was 4-0 on the day, three

of them falls, and improved his seasonal record to 16-0 with 14 falls. Lambert's perfect day improved his mark to 14-2. "Jeffs just been having a great year," Woods said. "He's doing everything right lately. It doesn't matter who he wrestles, he's going to beat him. He's almost won every match by a fall, which is incredible." The Comets' impressive showing means that they now have six wrestlers who have three losses or less for the season, which covers three tournaments and four dual meets, and none has lost more than four times. Bartlett is 6-2; Coleman is 12-4; Hockaday is 16-0; Watts is 12-4; Jorgensen is 13-3; Lambert is 14-2; Cavassa is 13-2; Mejia is 13-3, and Mason and Miramonges each have lost just four times.

Tutoring and financial aid are two of the functions of EOPS (Extended Opportunity Program and Services). The tutoring department has been expanded to cover all students, not only EOPS eligible students, according to Leah Lam pro, EOPS staff assistant. Free tutoring in most subjects is available and arranged to accommodate students' schedules. Regarding financial aid, those having trouble with expenses can still apply for this year. Each year the college is allocated a certain amount of money and continues to distribute it to eligible applying students through-

out the year. Funds are retroactive but only for the current school year. The application process time varies but may take several weeks. The first step is to fill out the Student Aid Application for California form, necessary to qualify for federal and state aid, available in TCB-1 or the financial aid office. When the College Scholarship Service of Berkeley receives the completed application for processing, it acknowledges receipt and sends more papers to be completed. These papers are given to the financial aid office which awards the financial aid office package and notifies students if they are eligible for

EOPS and other financial aid programs. What type of student is helped by the state-funded EOPS? "Anyone who qualifies as financially needy under the state guidelines. They include re~ entry students, dependents still living with parents and single people who are working part-time or are unemployed," says Lampro. Cal Grant applications and Student Aid Applications for California for the '86-'87 academic year will be available in December. Priority time for filing is Jan. 1 to Feb. 11, 1986. Tutoring and financial aid information is available in TCB-1, the EOPS outreach office, or call 744-1150, Ext. 2449.

Students, teachers make tracks to Mexico Spanish language instructors George Pesacreta and Martha Evans will escort a group of students to central Mexico this January. Sponsored by the foreign languages department, students may earn three units of transfer credit in Spanish while enjoying the culture, people and language of this region of Mexico during the semester break. First stop will be Mexico City where the cultures of ancient, colonial and

modern Mexico have both clashed and blended into what is now the world's largest metropolis. They will then spend two days in Guadal~ara in the state of Jalisco, where some of Mexico's best arts and crafts are produced. The final leg of the trip will take them to the tropical town of Puerta Vallarta. The class will be limited to 35 students and may be taken by anyone with an interest in Mexican culture
