Administrators request reassignment By Monica Nash
Shock waves from the resignations of three top administrators last month have not yet subsided. Dr. Theodore Kilman, assistant superintendent/vice president of Instruction; Dr. Kenneth Burns, assistant superintendent/ vice president of Student Mfairs; and Dr. Edward Muraski, Dean of Vocational Education have all requested reassignment to faculty status. The reaction to this announcement has had a divisive effect among the members of the faculty and the administration. Among the most outspoken of the faculty members has been Dr. Brenda Montiel, 1986 president of the faculty. She says that her comments at the January 13 meeting of the Governing Board represented nearly half of the staff who spoke to her of "grave concerns." She brought up several issues that seem responsible for most of the worry. "Major changes within the top level of administration are occurring without the input of the faculty." said Dr.
Montiel. "We had been working closely with the administration on several faculty projects and thought we had developed a great degree of rapport. Dr. Bogg's decision caused some disillusionment." Dr. Montiel mentioned that Superintendent/President George Boggs appeared insensitive by announcing the resignations on page five of his State of the Year Message to the Staff. She also objected to the closed meeting of the Board of Trustees where people had no opportunity to respond publicly. "We understand that the official reasons for the resignations were philosophical differences," said Dr. Montiel. "However, Dr. Boggs seems unwilling to discuss what they are. In my meetings with the president I was always impressed with his range and depth of conversation. It would have been appropriate for us to discuss those philosophical differences, since I was representative for the faculty at the time." "Any time decisions like this are made the institution will change. We
as a faculty have had no input on what this direction will be. I hope that the new direction will be something meaningful to the faculty and that we can bring about the unity which we felt we had achieved. There is a lot of reshaping to be done and I hope we can do that successfully." Other faculty responses to Dr. Boggs' actions include a letter to the editor of the Escondido Times-Advocate, dated January 26. Robert Coleman, Faculty Senate Vice-president, wrote that the current faculty president and vice-president and the present faculty senate leadership support and respect Dr. Boggs' decision. Another letter to the Times-Advocate, dated January 21, was written by speech instructor Patrick Schwerdtfeger. He commended Dr. Boggs' willingness to be a leader and to make very difficult decisions. In his opinion, Dr. Boggs did not have to ask the faculty to consent to a personnel matter. Jim Bowen, 1987 President of the Faculty, expressed the view that
perhaps Dr. Montiel had exaggerated the number of disgruntled faculty members. He said that no poll was taken to determine how many were dissatisfied with the changes. The faculty meeting held January 7 passed a resolution in support of resigning assistant superintendent Dr. Kilman. The resolution recognized many of Dr. Kilman's contributions and accomplishments. There was also an appreciation gathering on January 9 at the Olympic Resort Hotel that 150 people attended. Dr. Kilman has been employed by Palomar for 24 years and is now utilizing accrued vacation time. He will return in the fall for a position in the Art Department. Dr. Kilman declined to comment on the changes in administration to The Telescope. Dr E. Jan Moser, Director of Institutional Research, was approved as Interim Vice-President of Instruction. She will fill the post until a permanent replacement is approved in July. According to a public information release, Dr. Moser intends to "do more

than just maintain administrative duties in the instruction area in this interim period." Dr. Kenneth Burns, resigning assistant superintendent/ vice-president of Student Affairs, reiterated that he "fully supports the right of any president to choose his own immediate vice-presidents, since they must serve at the pleasure of that president and his board. I will continue to support President Boggs as vice president or faculty member. A true professional cannot do otherwise." He had a helium balloon attached to his desk that had just been presented to him by his staff. It said, "World's Greatest." Dr. Burns has plans to work at the Office of the Chancellor of the California Community Colleges on two projects. One project would involve authoring a student affairs manual for the state and the other is to assist the chancellor's staff with matriculation implementation. He says he has a (Continued on page 3)

"Crimes of the Heart," the family drama that is filled with love and Southern Gothic humor by Beth Henley, closes out its two weekend run tonight and tomorrow in the Palomar College Community Theatre at 7:30 p.m. "Crimes" is set in Hazelhurst, Mississippi, five years after Hurricane Camille. The three McGrath sisters have come together because the youngest of them Babe Botrelle, (Toki Cheri Hughes), has just shot her bigwig politico husband in the stomach because, she says, "I didn't like his stinking looks." Babe's older sister Lenny, (Lisa Costansa), is celebrating her thirtieth birthday. A martyr to her "shrunken ovary" and without romantic prospects. Lenny has also received the news that her beloved Billy Boy (a pet horse), has been struck dead by lightning. Meg, (Cindy Bennett-Callen) is the headstrong, rueful middle sibling, has come home after failing to launch a Hollywood singing career. Hovering above them all is the spirit of their dead mother, who hanged herself in the basement and for a dash of drama, strung up her cat as well, because "she had a bad day. A real bad day." Other characters include Doc, (John Howlett), Meg's ex-lover; Chick, (Kathleen Lynch) the McGrath sister's cousin; and Barnett (David Robinson), Babe's attorney. Cost for admission is $6 general, $5 seniors, students and staff. Special rates are given for 20 or more people. For ticket information contact the Box Office at Ext. 2453.

Author is victimized by brainless drivers By C. Matthew Swinden Have you ever wondered whether the car you drive is a target for all the stupid drivers on the roads these days? I have many times and my car is a target. Even though, I have never been in an accident (knock on wood), I have had numerous close calls in my eight years of driving. The test the DMV gives out should not only test your ability to operate a motor vehicle, but also be able to test your common sense. I have observed many drivers who lack common sense when they drive. It is a miracle that they are still on the road. It is as though when they step into their car, they leave their mind behind. Example: the person who tried to turn left on a red arrow only to meet head-on with the oncoming traffic, then stops in the middle of the intersection to wait for his green light. It goes without saying that he tied up traffic so that none of us could go anywhere. Or, the out-of-state driver who waits.for the green light while turning right. People's stupidity shows when they come to a four way stop. They either do one of two things: They come to a quick stop, make sure that no one is blocking the intersection, and then proceed through the intersection without the right of way, all within a split second.

Dear Newspaper Editor I would like to express my sincere thanks and gratitude to several Palomar College students for their efficient, knowledgeable and caring assistance given to my son Randy Castela (also a Palomar College student), when he was in a car accident November 3,
1986. Lisa Cannon and Shelly Kennedy arrived on the accident scene immediately and gave Randy the proper care needed until paramedics arrived. Lisa and Shelly visited him during his 7 week hospital stay, as did several members of Alpha Gamma Sigma Club. Their visits to the hospital helped Randy's recovery. Thank-you doesn't begin to express my feelings of admiration to all these kind and wonderful people reaching out and taking time out of their lives to help my son, who at the time of the accident was a stranger to some of the people that gave him assistance.

ASG members study Images vary complicated agenda at art show By Tom Fitzpatrick This is the first in an angoing series to let students kwYw what their elected representatives are dmng. Elected and appointed members of the Associated Student Government control several thousand dollars distributed each year to organizations on campus. Details of 1ww the ASG 's time and rrumey are spent are made public at weekly ASG meetings held in R-18 m><Jry Wednesday.
Among topics discussed February 11 were: participation of Palomar in a nationwide drug assessment program, current legislation to raise tuition fees with the proceeds going toward student and child care centers, parking problems on campus, payment of $400 to the Financial Aid office for scholarships, executive election dates, and the ice cream social held that day. Palomar's participation has been requested in a nationwide drug program. The plan calls for marketing and
PERSONNEL CHANGES (Continued from page 1) number of options and is optimistic about his future. Dr. Edward Muraski, resigning Dean of Vocational Education had little to say to the Telescope.about the changes except, "My situation is different than the others'. I will not be returning in the fall." Finally, Dr. George Boggs, Superintendent/ President, gave his own reaction to the controversy surrounding the resignations. He said his reasons for not going into detail about the motivation behind his actions has to do with agreements made with the resignees. "I cannot violate the privacy of the individuals involved in recent changes. I have reached agreements with them that I have to respect for ethical and legal reasons." Dr. Boggs remarked that he values feedback and evaluative comments from the staff. He said that he sought the advice of the Faculty Council and Faculty Senate Professional Standards and Practices Committee for the appointment of the Interim VicePresident and took it. He mentioned that he will accept suggestions in forming a selection committee to choose the new VicePresidents. The selection committee will tentatively be composed offaculty members , classified employees, administrators and students. The committee will give advice on criteria and qualifications desirable in the new vice-presidents. As for the fear that some faculty members expressed regarding Palomar's future direction, Dr. Boggs said at a special Faculty Senate meeting, "I do not intend to set this direction by myself. I will need your help and active participation." He brought up some issues that needed to be addressed, including: 1) What kind of institution do we want to be in view of the move to build a state university just a few miles from Palomar? 2) How much institutional effort should be put into staff orientation, development and renewal? 3) What will we do to attract and retain minority students? "The faculty has to be at the forefront of developing the recommendation of policies in which they are most expert: curricular revision, transfer and vocational programs, high school articulation and university articulation," said Dr. Boggs. The shake-up following the resignations has lessened somewhat, but there seems to be lingering doubt about the direction of Palomar's future among some staff members. However, the desire for mutual cooperation has been expressed on all sides.
advertising agencies to first survey students in selected colleges and universities, then to develop an advertising campaign based on those results to discourage the use of drugs. Permission was requested for anonymous surveys of 10 to 20 students on campus. No decision was made on the issue, but members of the student Senate did request further information to verify that the results would be kept confidential. Senate Bill 135, submitted by local representative Senator Bill Craven, would allow for an increase in community college tuition fees by anywhere from $1 to $10 per unit with the resulting funds going toward the building of student centers or child day care centers. In its current form, the bill only applies to colleges that have no student center or no child care center. The members of the student government discussed the possibility of altering SB135 to include improvements on existing student centers. The ASG was asked by Palomar President/Superintendent George Boggs to investigate the current parking problems and possible solutions. Senator Paul Hammer agreed to look into the subject and to report back at the February 18 meeting. A $400 payment was requested by Senior Secretary of Student Activities Marilyn Lunde for the annual ASG scholarships. The payment was discussed and was placed on the February 18 schedule for a vote. The date for executive ASG elections was set for May 4-7. Election packets will be made available March 9 and need be returned by April 8. ASG Senator Suzie Yankton reported that the ice cream social had been a success. All the ice cream had been distributed by 12:35 p.m. that afternoon. Among topics discussed February 18 were negotiations for the ASG to take over locker rental and parking problems. Discussion of the ASG taking over the locker rentals has been undertaken at several of the ASG meetings prior to February 18. Senator Ken Green reported that after an initial investment of $1896 for new locks, an estimated $2173 could be raised annually by managing the lockers. This figure is based on an 80 percent occupancy rate and an increase in rental fees. The lockers number 632 and are currently owned and operated by the bookstore. Hammer made a short presentation on the current parking problems and possible solutions. Among solutions discussed were purchasing new land for parking, building parking structures and carpooling.
"Spectacles of human misery...splendid ornaments of altars: retablos." Artist Wick Alexander's retablos, "Super Exitos," will be on display along with Elizabeth Sisco's "Work in Progress" at the Boehm Gallery, March 6 through April 3. "Super Exitos" depict narrative stories of accidents that have happened to the artist or his friends, including the "impailment" of Mexican artist Frida Kahlo. Works include a painting on the Boehm Gallery wall, a collaborative effort with artist Steve De Paoli Alexander, a native San Diegan, chooses Mexican themes for his circular-shaped paintings, according to Louise Kirtland, Boehm Gallery director. Sisco's "Work in Progress" is a group of phototext installations that reflects the social and political aspects of undocumented immigration in the United States. "The images play aspects of American culture against the realities of the Mexican immigration issue," said Kirtland.

Every semester the Cinema Department, under the supervision of Richard Peacock, shows a collection of films showing the development of the movies. "'Swingtime'" in many ways epitomizes the dream lifestyle of the 1930's: carefree, debonaire, romantic and young," says Peacock The storyline essentially consists of a dancer, Fred Astaire, who likes . gambling and guards his freedom. · Astaire eventually decides to settle down with a nice, but dull girl. After making the commitment to marriage, he meets a young, exciting dance teacher, Ginger Rogers, and chaos ensues. "Swingtime" will be shown twice, at 2 p.m. and 7 p.m. March 5 in P-32.

Baseball coach confident By Jerry Bennington
With the Pacific Coast Conference games starting next week, Coach Bob Vetter is looking forward to what he hopes will be a successful baseball season "I've got a really strong feeling about this team," he said. 'This is the best group I've coached in the six years I've been associated with Palomar." The Comets play their fmal nonleague game, today, with Saddleback visiting at 2 p.m. League games begin Tuesday, at home, with San Diego City at 2 p.m. Vetter garnered victory number 200 as a coach with a win against Mt. San Jacinto last week In the early going of the season, he has stressed defensive work and feels that their offense will come around shortly. With a strong infield and four outfielders, pitching remains his biggest concern.
The pitching staff is anchored by Mike Ponio, who will also play outfield when not pitching. The other Comet pitchers include a returning Mark Ungerbiller; and freshmen Eric Larson, Eric Hause, John Lane and Joe Comer. Tino Lozano of San Marcos starts in centerfield, while Yale Fowler of San Pasqual is in rightfield. Last season, Scott Anderson played shortstop but is now back in leftfield, his natural position. He will share action with Ponio. In the infield, Samuel Masaniai of San Marcos will see action behind the plate with Eric Torgerson. At first base; returning Comet David Clayton will split duty with Steve Fiser, from Timberline, Washington. At second base is David Dematteis, a sophomore; and at third base is freshman Rick Afenir of Escondido.
Jeff Gilmore and Willy Morris will both see action at shortstop. In the opening game against Golden West, February 6, the Comets gave up ten walks and nine of the ten scored for Golden West.

Lady cagers lose in playoffs BULLETIN
The Lady Comets ended their season on Tuesday when they were defeated by Golden West College 8858 in the first round of the regional playot'fs. By Jet'f Bradford
Coach Phil Smith's women's basketball team started the Southern California regional playoffs Tuesday when they traveled to Golden West College for both teams' first confrontation at the first round of playoffs. The Lady Comets, who were 13-8 in overall play and 9-3 in conference games hardly ever looked back in gaining a playoff berth. They stormed through their regular season securing a second place standing in the Pacific Coast Conference. The position was barely threatened by any other PCC team. MiraCosta was the number one
team and the only one to beat the Comets. The Spartans went through the conference schedule unbeaten. Coach Smith's Comets kicked off their conference schedule January 5 when they defeated San Diego Mesa easily, 68-46. Yvette Person led the scoring with 18 points. Kelly Blackshear and Zena Phillips both had 14, while Kristen Hurd rounded out the high scorers with 10 points. The Lady Cagers suffered their first loss two days later in the first in-league meeting with MiraCosta. The Lady Spartans downed the Comets 69-58. Hurd was the high scorer with 15 points. Person and Zenia Phillips were also in double figures with 12 and 11, respectively. On January 10 they downed the Grossmont College Griffins, 69-63. Person was the high scorer with 14 points, while Hurd scored 11, Zena Phillips 10 and Rene Phillips 7. The Lady Comets took their second loss in the second conference meeting
with the Spartans. MiraCosta won by a score of 68-50. Rene Phillips led the Comets' scoring with 12, Person 11, Charlene Gamba eight and Blackshear seven. The Comets routed the Griffins again January 24, 84-62. Person was again the Comets' leading scorer with 17,followed by Blackshear with 11 and Rene Phillips with eight. Despite the win, the Comets came away from this game shorthanded due to the injury of Zena Phillips, a leading scorer. She scored six points before leaving the game with a broken ankle. Despite this loss of a critical player, the Comets went on to destroy San Diego City on the last day of January, 97-38. Rene Phillips was the Comets' high scorer with 20 points. Blackshear tallied 17, while Oliver and Hurd both came away with 13 and Person had 11. Mesa played host to the Comets on February 4. The Lady Comets edged Mesa by one point, scoring with only two seconds left to play. Rene Phillips again led her team in scoring with 16 points. Hurd had 14, Blackshear had nine and Person eight. Later that week the Comets defeated the Grossmont Griffins again, though by only one basket, 6058. Person led the LadyCagers, scoring 16. On February 14 San Diego City forfeited to the Comets for the second time this season. The Lady Comets defeated Mesa in the Dome February 18, 73-69. Oliver led the scoring with 21 points, most of them free throws. Rene Phillips had 17, while Person and Hurd had 14 apiece. The Comets wrapped up their regular season of play last Saturday when they hosted MiraCosta College. The Spartans again defeated the Comets, this time by a score of 69-49. Hurd was the team's high scorer with 18 points. Person followed with 12 and Rene Phillips had eight.

Gilmour's cagers end season just short of playoff berth By Jeff Bradford
Getting blown off the court by 39 points is not something that can be easy to accept. Nor can it be easy for a team to end a five game winning streak and their season with a 91 -52 loss. The men's basketball team knows what it's like to swallow those bitter pills. Their winning streak came to a grinding halt last Sat urday night in the season's finale, a 91 -52 loss to Imperial Valley College at Imperial Valley. It doesn't matter to these guys now that they fought their way up from the basement of the Pacific Coast Conference to a two-way tie for third place. All that matters is 'What might have been." If the Comets had won their matchup with the number one team in the league (Imperial Valley), they would be on their way to the Southern California regional playoffs. "I guess we saved the worst for last," said head coach Andy Gilmour. "For whatever reason, nobody played well." That, however, was not true for the whole season. They started out slowly, racking up a record of only 7-11 in

Earl Weaver, ex-manager of baseball's Baltimore Orioles, once stated, "Pitching is 90% of this game." Pr oving Weaver's point, Karrie Schott pitched the Comet girls to a 3-0 start, defeaq ng Riverside 9-3 February 19, and then shutting out Sacramento City 3-0 and San Diego Mesa 1-0 February 13-14 in the Rancho Santiago Tournament. But coach Mark Eldridge points to his strong team play. "Our talent is pretty spread out," says Eldridge of the state's number two ranked team, "although Karrie did a really great job." The 3-0 start sets the pace for what promises to be a successful season. Commented Eldridge: 'We should be a contender in the Pacific Coast Conference. So long as we just stay consistent." The Comets play at Mt. San Antonio this afternoon at 3 p.m.
pre-conference play. The team muddled their way through their first six conference games, winning only one-Southwestern College here 92-79. Gary Williams was the high point man with 39. However, half way into the season the Comets began to win. 'We started to play better because of Eddie Hodges being put in at point guard," says Williams, a freshman forward out of Dominguez High. "The whole team started to play better. He [Hodges J was moving the ball upcourt more and we were becoming more of a fastbreak team," continued Williams. 'We were starting to play better defensively, which was creating more offensive opportunities" added coach Gilmour. It was during that first game of the second round of conference play that the Comets came alive. They defeated the Spartans of MiraCosta 70-66. Williams was again the high point man for the Comets with 23. Hodges followed with 15 and sonhomore center Dave Craven tallied 13. "Everybody just started playing better. I'm not sure why, I guess because it was the second round and our second chance," said Hodges, a 62 freshman guard. After their win in the Dome against MiraCosta, the Comets traveled to Southwestern College where they defeated the Apaches 73-63 February 7. Jeff Thomas, a 6'1", 175 pound sophomor,e guard from Washington came off the bench to lead the locals in scoring with 16 points. Williams had 13, Craven 12 and Aaron Hunter 10. They continued their winning spree the following Wednesday when they played host to San Diego Mesa College. They downed the Olympians 74-47. Sophomore guard Kyle Ruggles led the Comets' scoring with 16 points. Williams had 15 while Hodges and fresh-
man forward Rich Prusinski both had 10. On February 14 they traveled to San Diego City, defeating the Knights 8476. Williams once again led his team in scoring with 27. Prusinski had 14 and Thomas 13. Five days later they hosted Grossmont, defeating the Griffins in double overtime 96-93. Williams was the high point man for the Comets with 26. Craven had 20 and Hunter had 19. This turned out to be the last game of the team's win streak, for the following Saturday brought their illfated season finale with IVC. The Comets ended their conference season with a record of 6-6. Overall they were 13-17. Williams finished the season with 612 total points, 181 rebounds, 17 blocked shots and an average of 20.4 points per game. Eddie Hodges had 352 points, 192 rebounds, 87 assists and averaged 11.7 points a game. Coach Gilmour is just looking ahead now. 'We'll just wait until next year and hope it all comes together then."

Enrollment up 1 0 percent Despite the lack of funds from the state, enrollment is up from one year ago by 9.9 percent.

As of February 17, there were 9,170 day students and 6,262 night students enrolled. The enrollment increase from the fall semester is 2.2 percent. Lee sees the enrollment figures as "healthy," but adds that "things could be better." "Given the situation we are pretty pleased.
