Nanny need
By Fred Tracey Does Palomar College have a substance abuse problem? Talk to some staff members and they will tell you there is one. And to help flght it, a substance abuse prevention program has been proposed for possible implementation in November. Federal funds for the program had been applied for. But according to Frank Hankin, director of student activities, Palomar was just one out of many colleges which had requested funds from the U.S. Department of Education. Subsequently, Palomar's request was turned down. Hankin then went to the community to seek public donations. But that plea was also disappointing since no donations were received. "It crushed me. There are people out there with big bucks. I was very disappointed." With the program as one of his top priorities, Hankin has rounded up various campus resources to help get the program off the ground. "I've received a lot of help from the Counseling Department, EOPS, tutoring, Disabled Student Services, Pat Worret
A nanny workshop will be offered to North County professional families on October 14, from 6 p.m. to 9:50p.m. at Mount Carmel High School. On October 14, "How Do I Find a Nanny?" examines the search for and salary requirements of the qualified nanny. The nanny's complete job description and networking information needed to hire and retain a nanny are also provided. According to Dr. Hulda "Goody" Berk, chairman of Palomar's Child Development Department, "Careeroriented parents realize that their children are a great resource, and are willing to pay for quality child care. Nannies are child care professionals, not servants, who are trained to meet the needs of the child within the home," she said. To pre-register for the workshops contact the Mount Carmel Center at 484-3890. The office is located at 9550 Carmel Mountain road, Bldg. B, Penasquitos. For additional information, call the Child Development Department, Ext. \ 2206.

~voice
of Palomar' answers with clarity By Fred Tracey
Joyce Harris says she's a private person. But every day perhaps hundreds of people hear her voice and she is being called "the voice of Palomar." It is that voice you hear when you call the college's new phone system put into operation over the summer. The new system allows a caller to dial the extension number of the person they are calling, bypassing the switchboard operators. But first, you hear Harris' voice with the greeting that says "Thank you for calling Palomar College... " "It was nothing to do that," she said with perfect diction. "When I did the recording I didn't want it to sound like just another telephone recording. I wanted to make it different and clear that we care about the person who has just called." But for being such a private person, why would anyone do this type of thing? "Because I've given training in telephone vocal technique. I knew I could do a good job for the college." Harris was a voice major at Ohio State and sang professionally in Chicago. She said she has had years of vocal study and knows how to care !or her voice properly. "I think a lot
of people misuse their voice._: 路 Harris has received a lot of positive feedback from the campus and the community. "People who I haven't heard from in months and years have called me at my office and at home just to say 'I know that voice!' " When she isn't making recordings for the switchboard, Harris is the department secretary and staff aide for the Speech/ Theatre/Dance Department and works with Dr. Raymond Dahlin who is director of forensics. She has participated on the Palomar speech teams and has received a large part of her training from Dr. Dahlin. AT&T may have Cliff Robertson as their spokesman, but Palomar has Joyce Harris. You can turn off Cliff, but don't hang up on Joyce because you won't get a busy signal and her diction will be perfect.
Fifty representatives from industry will participate October 14 when Palomar holds its seventh annual Career Information Conference. The conference will be held on the lawn between the Student Services Center and the Student Union from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. As the conference sponsor, the Placement Office invites students and members of the community to the event which is free of charge. According to Barbara Clay, conference organizer, information about a variety of career opportunities will be provided. "Approximately 50 representatives from industry and government agencies will participate," she said. They will provide specific information on employment opportunities, as well as requirements for successful job placement. Ron Jordan, placement officer, will hold a resume workshop from 10 a.m. to 11 a.m. Jordan will review resumes, offering hints on improvements, and will suggest some successful jobseeking techniques. The placement office's "Employer Proflle Booklet," outlining company services and employment opportunities, will be available at the conference. The booklet will also be distributed to students, instructors and local high schools. For additional information, call the Placement Office, 744-1150 or 7277529, Ext. 2363.

and Valerie Taylor." A substance abuse prevention program model has been developed for proposed implementation in cooperation with a program already in place in the Escondido Union High School District. There, students are trained as peer counselors and a network of over 200 community agencies are utilized as alternative activities for the program. How does the college know there is a drug problem on campus? In 1985, a comprehensive drug use survey was done in grades four, seven, ten and twelve. North County high schools were represented in that survey which showed that 65 percent of twelfth graders use alcohol at least once per-month and 61 percent of tenth graders have tried marijuana with 33 percent using it regularly. This leaves the college to believe these high school students carry their drug problem to Palomar after graduating from high school. "On a campus like Palomar, the problem tends to be hidden," said Cynthia Poole, chairperson of the Counseling Department. Poole explained that the prevention program would be coordinated through the Counseling Department to train students to be peer advisors or counselors. By setting up this system, some students might not drop out of college due to their drug dependency problem. She said that because the counseling department does not deal with students on a long-term basis, they do not deal with long- term therapy and often referrals are made to outside agencies. Frank Hankin is ready to go with the program. But he says he is in need of support and input from students and staff. Anyone interested in helping with the substance abuse prevention program can call Hankin at Ext. 2594 or 2595.

Debate team looks strong By Mary Hannify
Taking the National Championship is within reach of the Forensics Squad this year. "I think I've got the personnel to make Nationals this year," Dr. Ray Dahlin, chairman of the . Speech/ Theatre/Dance Department says. This year the Cornet speakers are a mixture of returning veterans and new corners. One ingredient that enables the team to have a shot at the Nationals is experienced debators on the squad. "In order to be eligible for Sweep-stakes you have to cover all the events listed," Dr. Dahlin says. Also helping the team go for the gold
are three new coaches. Ed Estes used to be a competitor for the Cornets and now has his Doctorate in Jurisprudence. Rocky Cifone was also a speaker for the Cornets and will possibly be doing a Readers' Theatre later in the fall semester. John Tagg, a part-time English teacher here, will be another coach who has his Masters Degree in Language Arts and Literature. He is also a freelance writer, having his writing published in the Los Angeles Times and the National Review magazine. All three coaches will be working with the debate team. "That makes us strong and it should take us higher nationally," Dr. Dahlin concludes.

Apaches ambush gridders 28-21 By Brad Cesmat
Fullback Sione Fehoko rushed for two touchdowns and wide receiver David Dilkes had a touchdown reception in leading the Southwestern Apaches to a come-from-behind 2821 victory over the host Palomar Comets. Palomar had a commanding 21-0 midway through the second quarter, and the Comet offense quickly threatened to put the game out of reach. However, Southwestern would not give up. Quarterback Doug Piper drove the Apaches 65 yards down to the Palomar one yard line. From there Fehoko banged over to cut the Comets' lead to 21-7.

Mesa swims past Comets in 11 -4 victory
The Comets, who came into the contest as the thirteenth ranked team in the state, were led on offense by quarterback Mark Heintschel who scored on a two yard run for the Comets' first points. Tailback Tracy Kennedy, who already had a touchdown run for 70 yards this season, went around the right side untouched 68 yards to put the Comets up by fourteen. Rocky Aukuso tossed a 13 yard T.D. pass to Michael Jones to complete the scoring. Besides losing the ballgame, the Comets' starting quarterback tandem of Heintschel and Aukuso both went down with injuries and their status for Saturday's game at San Diego City College is questionable. Kenney was the leading rusher for the locals, racking up 80 yards in nine

"I know they were down. We had a real tough game," said coach Greg Ormsby of his water polo team's 114 loss to Mesa October 2. The game really was closer than the score indicates. Mesa's tall goalie, Harold Duffy, had squelched the Comets early in the game with fierce coverage. "He started out the game good and we just got intimidated," said Ormsby. Which isn't to say this stopped the Comets from trying. But of 34 shots, only four made it past the goalie. "If you would've told us before the game that we'd take 34 shots, I would've told you you were crazy," he

"We need a good head and shoulders fake, commit the goalie and go the other way. "We also need to work on man-up offense," he said, "and score while they're weak" Scorers against Mesa were Brian Seymore, Bill Coffm with two, and Brian Williams.

Jensen takes voyage dancing vvith cruise line By Mary Hannify
People have grown up 'Nith The Andrew Sisters, The Jackson Five and The Osmonds. Now for the Jensen Five.
Well, maybe not, but Chamaine Jensen does come from a large family of five girls that all have talent, according to Jensen "My father was a preacher," said Jensen, "so we'd all get around the piano. I guess that's how we got started." Jensen, 18, is from a long line of Palomar students. Her sisters before her all attended school here and have moved on. Is it this Jensen's time? "Basically, I just need a chance to get away and grow," she said. "I'm in a rut." Jensen said she has a dream but feels stuck. "I believe this means I need to move on," she said. She decided to move on to a career with the Royal Viking Cruise Line. Jensen found her new job in the school-produced drama log, where audition notices are placed.
Readers' Theatre to defend titles By Mary Hannify
Mter taking major awards last year, the Readers' Theatre will go for the gold again. Last year the Palomar Readers' Theatre won the national title for "In the Golden Mternoon" and also won the coveted peer-group award. The bronze Readers' Theatre winner was "Biographies". This year's Readers' Theatre promises to be excellent, since some of the actors and actresses are returning national champions. "The experience is well divided between the two shows," Kathy Wast~ director of the Readers' Theatre says. "We have some novices this year, but I expect them to do well." The first script is a take-off from "Billy the Kid." The performers are Frank Hankin (Billy), Steve Spivey (Garrett), Daniela Heggem (Sally) and Wendy Jacobs (Angela). The second script is a take-off from "The Spy in the House of Love." The performers are Dondi Dahlin, Deidra Dukes and Jessica Neeman. "It's going to take awhile before we debut them," Waste says. Along with performing in the theatre, each individual must compete in other events to qualify for Nationals. "Both shows will be going to Nationals. "I have no doubt about it," Waste says."We have to defend our gold and bronze from last year."
There were auditions in San Francisco, Los Angeles and Las Vegas. "Three hundred people were at the one I went to in L.A They had 10 slots to fill," she said. She said they first taught the applicants a dance routine, then started cutting those of certain weights and heights. "A week later I was notified." Jensen left October 5 for Las Vegas to learn dance routines for cruise line shows. Then she'll be headed to the Virgin Islands and Asia "I'm excited about learning a lot, since I'm not going to be in school," she said. "My inspiration has always been from God." Jensen's entertainment endeavors have taken her through several local community theaters, singing and dancing her way through plays like "Oliver," "Sweet Charity" and "West Side Story." Her ultimate goal is to be in a blockbusting movie with either Matt Dillon or Charlie Sheen. Neither of these actors are out of reach for her, and she has already met Sheen. "I asked him if I could walk him to his limo. I did, and we stopped off and had coffee and talked," she said. "Charlie gave me the reality to my dreams," according to Jensen. "Everyone needs dreams, but you also need to be realistic." Jensen said that anyone striving for something should get an education not just of a field of endeavors but also an education of self.
Four workshops entitled "Learning to Leave" are being sponsored by the Single Parent Displaced Homemakers program. They include: •Marriage in Motion, October 21; •The Emotions of a Break-up, October 28; •The Practical Problems of Leaving, November4; •The Secrets of Ending it Gracefully, November 11. The workshops will be presented by Lynette Triere of the Triere Center for Relationship Education in Del Mar. All workshops begin at noon and end at 1:30 p.m. and are held in the Student Services Center conference room.
David Chappie, interim vice president for student affairs. "In all three categories, Palomar students scored above national and state averages," Chappie said. In English, Palomar students achieved a "raw" score of 4 7. The state average is 42.6, and the national average score on the same test is 43.8, said Chappie. The average reading score achieved by Palomar students was 28, Chappie continued. The state average score is 21.8 and the national average is 24. The average "numerical skills" score achieved by Palomar students was 22. The state average is 15.7 and the national average is 18, Chappie said. "We're very pleased with these scores and very proud of our students," Chappie said. "We have always believed that most Palomar students are well prepared in basic skill areas, and these tests confinn those beliefs." The ASSET tests were administered to Palomar students over the past two years, Chappie said. "Their main purpose is to determine placement in the most appropriate English, reading or mathematics class for each student."
