Deuk signs Student assaulted; suspect sought parking fee legislation By Tarnra Goulart Staff Writer
Members of the women's soccer team came to the aid of a student after an assault attempt near the cactus gardens at 1:50 p.m. on Oct. 3. The victim was walking from lot 3D, through the gardens, to lot 14, when a man approached her walking in the opposite direction. The man, who is described as a caucasion in his early 20s, is approximately six feet tall with a thin build and short blonde hair. At the time of the incident he was wearing sunglasses, a light colored shirt and shorts. "I could feel that he wasn't a nice person," the victim recalls when the suspect turned and proceeded to follow her. The victim asked him if he had forgotten something in his car, as a way of acknowledging that she was aware of his presence. "I wasn't really friendly," she says. "I just kept walking fast." The suspect then asked the victim how her day was and she replied, "OK." "Well, it could have been worse," the suspect continued. "Someone could have tried to pull down your top." According to the victim's account, the suspect then attacked her and tried to pull down her top. He then began unbuttoning his shorts and as the victim states, "I'm sure he would have (committed rape) if he had the chance-he was rather forceful." At that point, the victim managed to throw down her belongings and run off to the safety of a woman who had been walking ahead of her and climbed into her van. During the alleged attack the girls' soccer team, which was practicing on the field, had overheard the victim screaming. "At first we didn't take it seriously," admits team member Justine Tanzman. However, when the loud screaming continued, the players realized something was wrong. As Tanzman explains, the soccer team members ran over to the fence surrounding the
By Fred Tracey Managing Editor Governor George Deukmejian has signed legislation allowing community college districts to charge a maximum of $40 each semester for student parking. The bill, AB 2978, will go into effect Jan. 1. The Governor also signed a bill making it easier for students to declare a California residency if they are from out-of-state. If Palomar sought to increase the parking fee under new legislation, it would be the second time the college has done so since the 1987 summer semester. At that time, parking fees were $7 a semester before the college increased the fee to $12 a semester. The hike in the student parking fee would allow the college to pay for parking improvements. "We have a serious problem with only 3,000 spaces when we have over 21,000 students," said Superintendent/ President Dr. George Boggs. "Although those students are not here all at one time, students are having problems finding a place to park I think a lot of students are car pooling and some ride the bus, which helps minimize the problem."

ASG President Ken Green interrupts a recent Alpha Gamma Sigma meeting to rebut accusations made by the club's president, Diane Brandle.
In a scathing letter to the ASG senators, Alpha Gamma Sigma President Dianne Brandle accused Ken Green, ASG President, of misconduct, violating the checks and balances system, blackmail and extortion. The letter was read by Brandle to the senators at the Oct. 5 ASG meeting, which Green was not able to attend. It described a "disturbing" conversation between her and Green after the Alpha Gamma Sigma meeting on Sept. 29. According to the letter, "He (Green) then stated that he was making the ASG budget for the next year and that he would not write monies for the Inter-Club Council if clubs did not support the ASG." The ICC distributes money to clubs and organizations given by the ASG. "He said that he was making it mandatory that each and every member of all the clubs and organizations on campus buy $10 ID cards." The letter continued to explain how Green intended to accomplish such a task He brought up an example of comparing submitted membership rosters to ID card receits. "Ken, it sounds to me like your saying that unless all 250 of my AGS members get ID cards, then we won't recieve any funds from the government and that there will be no monies budgeted to the ICC for next year," read the letter. "That sounds like a threat." In the letter, she accused Green of writting the budget without the consent of the senators, and the Governing Board would approve the budget because, "They don't know what they're doing." At the conclusion of the letter, Brandle asked the senate to write a statement outlining whether
the ASG is supportive of the "mandatory ID extortion policy;" a statement as to how many other organizations have been approached with this "blackmail idea;" and a statement addressing the president's disregard of the checks and balances of the student government system. (see LETTER - page 2)

field, where the woman in the van told them of the incident and described tl;~e suspect. The team hopped the fence and searched the area for the suspect. Tanzman recalls that the victim "was hysterical ... laughing and crying at the same time." Softball coach Mark Eldridge, who was also on the scene, says that one witness saw a man fitting the suspect's description fleeing the area in a maroon Honda Accord. Meanwhile, Tanzman and other team members managed to flag down Sheriffs deputy B. G. Creighton who was driving on Mission Road at the time. Creighton immediately proceeded to the scene to investigate and interview the victim. At approximately the same time, two more team members intercepted Campus Patrol officer Patrick Mationg, informing him of the attack, and he also arrived at the scene. After Creighton interviewed the victim, she was taken to the Sheriffs Department to give further details of the attack and to help develop an artist's rendition of the suspect. After reading a previous article in The Telescope concerning an exhibitionist on campus, the victim stated that there were similarities in the description of the exhibitionist and the assault suspect. In an interview, the victim said 's he would contact the Sheriffs Department regarding the similarities, although there is no word of any current developments in the assault investigation.
The Oct. 3 assault incident took place between lots 14 and 3. The above map illustrates the location of the cactus gardens With the recent outbreaks of exhibitionism and assault on campus, concerns over sexual crimes are high. Barbara Schnelker, associate professor of the Behavioral Sciences, explains that, "the motivations for rape are violence and dominance over a woman rather than sexual pleasure." "Rapists don't think of their victims as human beings who have feelings," she adds. Schnelker blames society and a lack of proper sexual education, which, "leads young males to believe that violence is a means of sexual arousal." She emphasizes that sexual education should begin in grammar school and feels that the school system, "has not done a very good job of educating young
men and women, who often grow up believing what is in popular culture." What measures should a woman take to avoid a possible rape? "Have people walk you to your car and be careful where you're going," the victim warns. "I just don't want anyone to have to go through it," she expresses, "because he could get further next time." "Girls should not be walking over there (in the cactus garden) alone," she cautions. "Walk with your friends." If anyone has any further information on the incident or the suspect, please contact Campus Patrol at Ext. 2289, or call the Vista Sheriffs Department at 9404551, and ask for officer B. G. Creighton.
Letter (continued from page 1)
She also recommended an investigation into Green's conduct with clubs, organizations, and his position on committees as representative of the student body, including the Governing Board. Green, in a seperate interview, denied all the accusations, stating that Brandle's letter was not totally correct. "There's some obvious flaws (in the letter)," Green said. "First, she has a selective memory." According to Green, parts of what he said had been left out. Senator Hance Anderson also acknowledged that some parts of quotes were missing during the ASG meeting. "I don't think she realizes what she's accusing the ASG of," said Green. "We haven't extorted any monies from anybody." Green said the ICC has all their funding. "If she thinks I'm extorting, then tell the District Attorney." He said that the ID cards allow students to get into several school related activities free or at a reduced price. The discount booklet, that is free with the purchase of an ID card, gives free passes to Magic Mountian, discounts to Sea World and other attractions, and coupons from local merchants. These values are only available when the ID card is presented. "If we're extorting, then we're sure making it's nice," Green said. After the ASG meeting, Brandle said she disapproved of Green's proposal and way of presenting it, but she approached the ASG senators mainly because of his conduct.
''There is no scandal," she said, ''There is no problem except for Ken's conduct. "I personally believe that he was trying to resolve the problem with the student ID cards, but he went about it in the wrong way ... He could go about it in other ways. "The whole reason why I brought this up to the senators is so they know how their president is acting." On Oct. 7, after an unofficial and unauthorized senate meeting, Brandle submitted another letter to the senators. In this second letter, she asked the senators to disregard all her requests except for one. "As I have learned, there is some confusion in regards to what the issue was that I approached you with," read the letter. "The issue, as I see it, is how the senate is being represented by the president of the ASG. In more specific terms, Mr. Green's conduct." She questioned the senate again whether or not they would conduct an investigation into Green's conduct with clubs, organization, and his position on committees as representative of the student body, including the Governing Board. Also included with this letter were two other letters written by Becky Bitter and SheilaNawrocla, witnesses of the conversation that took place between Brandle and Green on Oct. 5. "She (Brandle) feels Ken is misrepresenting the ASG by doing what he's doing," said Michelle Harding, ASG Vice President. "That defeats the purpose of the ASG." Harding expressed the impor-
tance that this is a ASG and AGS issue and not a Ken Green and Dianne Brandle issue. "This is by far not personal ... and that's how Ken is taking it." Green also stated that Brandle, a former senator, knew there was a due process in which she had to go through to make such a presentation. By her not doing so, Green says it was just for publicity. "It's just a publicity stunt," he said. "For her to bring it up for publicity shows the lack of ethics on her part, the ethics I'm being accused of. "She's not attempting to solve a problem, she's trying to create a problem." Green rPferred to these actions as "childish mudslinging." "She just wanted to get in there and sling some mud around," he said, "and now she's going to get dirty."

Schedule availa.bility illicits questions By Michael B. Adcock Staff Writer
Do you give permission to release your name, address, telephone number and class schedule in accordance with the Family Rights and Privacy Act? This is just one question asked of students when they apply for admission to Palomar. If students answer ''yes," virtually anyone can have access to your records. Just ask Ken Green, President of the Associated Student Government. His registration schedule was released to Diane Brandle, President of Alpha Gamma Sigma so that she could prove Green
"ditched a class" every Wednesday to attend meetings of the ASG. Green considers Brandle acquiring his schedule a "criminal offense." ''This is classified information. How did she get itT asked Green. But when Green first applied for admission, he gave permission to the college to release his class schedule, phone number and address to teachers, counselors and any student with a good enough reason for having such information, according to employees of the Admissions and Records Office.

Elderly play big role In 1980 there were almost 25 million Americans 65 or over. It is projected that one-fifth of us will be 65 or over by the 21st century. The majority of the elderly are healthy, vigorous, and increasingly better educated. Inactivity leads to diminished capability. Middle-aged persons are retiring earlier and many are seeking new career opprotunities. Though a majority of persons over 55 would like to enroll in educational activities, only 7 percent actually do, according to a Harris poll. Despite this low figure, statistics show increasing numbers of retired persons turning to education and vocational institutions, and in particular to the community colleges. The average age of the Palomar student is over 30 years of age. As greater numbers of middle aged persons enroll in community college programs, it's time to re-examine the roles community colleges might play in providing educational training options to this fast growing minority. Mature talents can benefit their community. Look to education for new active roles or as a political challenge to stereotyped advanced age community colleges are in an optimum position to assist the aging population explore t heir options to work within their community to raise awareness, that this human resource can be harnessed to resolve community problems. Present mechanisms for bringing the elderly into the colleges are inefficient. Many need counseling and guidance to help polish up rusty skills. Studies show that there is virtually no sign of decline in the intelligence of normal, healthy "living longer" persons. On the contrary, aging helps with learning because it involves experience, and experience helps to organize input. Like any other prejudice, agism needs to be met by information, contradiction, and, when necessary, confrontation. Karl G. Waack
Military article outdated What exactly is the right reason for joining the military service? In the article Army's offer bitter, (The Telescope, Sept. 30 edition) it would seem that the author may have some outdated and unrealistic notions about why people join the armed services. My personal choice for joining was that I wanted education. Serving my country was certainly a reason but it was educational benefits that attracted me to join. This choice has seemed to have paid off (for me and approximately 140,000 other service members) as to date the Navy has paid well over $50,000, per person, for education for the active duty members who attend Palomar college full time. While I may be called upon to lay down my life for the Navy, the job I had before I came in the Navy posed a similar hazard, with one exception; there were no opportunities or programs to further my education. My sole responsibility was to work until the horn rang ... period. The educational benefits side of military service is in fact used as a bait, and for good reason. I attend Palomar, fulltime and am receiving full pay while doing so. Attending school for two years is simply my job. I, and several of the other military members attending Palomar, have the option to continue at a four-year college, under the same present conditions. In addition to the program I am on, there are five other educational programs that render assistance while you are in or after you get out. Each of the programs vary in the amount of assistance provided, depending on what you are willing to work for, or are willing to contribute. The right reason for joining the military service may be a value judgement. I feel that joining for the sole reason of defending your country was a notion that went out in the 50s. If you examine the educational programs the military offers, and examine what the majority of civilian counterparts offer, I would think that anyone who is looking for a way to get a college education would consider some of the options the military offers. If you have a gripe with the Army, shop around! But for heaven's sake don't consider the other services until you know what everybody else offers! Randy E. Roe

Sex testing inaccurate By Cris Fraser
Staff Writer The Oxford Dictionary defmes femininity as "of or like or suitable for women, having the qualities or appearance considered characteristic of a woman." However, the International Olympic Committee has its own definition of femininity. According to an article by Alison Carlson in the October issue of Ms. magazine, women athletes who wish to compete in major international competitions, such as the Olympics, must submit to a "gender verification" test of their chromosomes. The test, called the buccal smear, involves a microscopic analysis of cells scraped from the inside of an athlete's cheek to determine the pattern of her sex chromosomes. This form of testing, however, is inaccurate and unreliable. Normally, the female chromosome pattern is XX and the male is XY, but medical evidence uncovered in the article
reveals that this is not always the case. There is a chance that a genetic abnormality may occur. It is possible for a woman to have some internal male organs due to a birth defect, which are estimated to occur from one in 1,000 to one in 4,000 births. There are genetically normal women with medical conditions causing an overabundance of the male hormone testosterone. Such a condition can account for hypermasculine women. Also, there are women who have testosterone producing tumors on their ovaries which can induce male-like characteristics. The IOC justifies its use of the buccal test by stating, "It would be unfair in a women's competition to allow chromosomally abnormal athletes with male-like characteristics." Should we blame the athletes for being stricken by genetic disorders? A successful female athlete's "male-like characteristics" are not, as the IOC says an "unfair advantage." Factors such as
training, coordination and self-discipline, which are crucial in order to attain athletic victory, must be considered. Not only is the buccal test inaccurate and unfair, it is, moreover, a form of sex discrimination. Why doesn't the IOC test men as well? Of course, the test will be proven useless since it would not tell which men have "an unfair advantage." It is sad to think that about a dozen women have been disqualified from Olympic competition based on the results of this test. Deciding the defmition of femininity should not be left to a small group of people at the IOC-most of whom are men. Overall, the IOC's concept of "quality defected" women athletes is utterly degrading, ridiculous, inefficient and unnecessary. The chromosome t es t should be replaced with a simple physical examination by female doctors, or an added hormone test with testosterone limits to the current process.

Senate election test One soldier's rebuttal of Green's climbing ability I am writing in response to the commentary "Army's offer bitter," which appeared in the September 30th issue. It is quite obvious to the veterans attending Palomar that the writer has no real understanding about military, veterans benefits, or recruiting. Yes, you do put your life on the line when serving in the military. That's a foregone conclusion. Anyone trying to enlist should be aware of this. Recruiters do not ask applicants whether they're ready to die for their country for the simple reason that this is a decision that must be made prior to seeing the recruiter. Also, if someone were a conscientious objector, they would be disqualified from military service. The commercials seen on television deal mainly with the Army offering ''The Army College Fund." The other services do not have as large a budget as the Army and cannot offer such incentives. The most the Marine Corps can offer is the "new GI-Bill," which differs considerably from the "old GI-Bill" many veterans use at Palomar. Therefore, education isn't pushed as ¡hard in the Marines as in the Army, but the benefit does exist to be taken advantage of! When an appHcant enlists for the "Army College Fund" it will become evident that most of the jobs in this program are combat related and pose the obvious risk during times of combat. So it would take a real idiot to say that they didn't know there was a danger involved. I was a former Marine recruiter in Chicago. I had no say about enlistment standards. Those were decided at Headquarters Marine Corps. Enlistment quotas were decided at MCRD San Diego, District Headquarters and the Recruiting Station downtown. I could offer an applicant a program for enlistment, but had to advise them that they were in no way guaranteed a single job. If they scored high enough on the ASVAB (Armed Services Vocational Aptitude Battery), then they could possibly get the job. Nothing was gauranteed, except they would be Marines after 11 weeks of recruit training, or civilians. I set no "traps" and I seriously object being classified by someone as being dishonest just to make a "quota." There were many months that I enlisted no one because they weren't qualified. There were months that I wrote 1 contract, there were months I wrote 8. Not once did I ever have to set "traps" or be dishonest to do my job. There is also a comradery within the military that obviously the writer of the above mentioned commentary isn't aware of. When two servicemen are reunited at another command, or when they cross paths, there are many stories swapped. When the Marines were killed in Beirut, we all scoured the casualty list hoping and praying that friends, brothers, fathers, and sons weren't on it. The Marine felt each casualty as if each were his own because they were. We lgst a part of ourselves in that exxplosion, a little part died. We, according to the author, are not allowed to feel that because we are cold, uncaring machines going about to set "traps" for the unsuspecting. In closing, I feel that the author owes each and every veteran, active duty and reserve personnel an apology for insulting their intelligence, their honesty, and the love of country each had when they enlisted into the service.
It seems Associated Student Government President Ken Green has come upon a mountain he will not climb. The mountain is one that we, as Americans, have looked upon with awe since childhood. It separates our borders from nations less free and is the very foundation of our political ideology. That mountain is the democratic system. The Associated Student Government, in theory, has the task of emulating that system. By doing so its members make their own treks through the foothills of democracy. However, with the recent cancelation of the ASG senatorial elections, the climb is not to be. Attempting to save time and money, Green called off the elections because there weren't enough candidates to fill available senate seats. Rather than getting public approval of the candidates from the students, Green chose to appoint to the positions those who would have run. This move defies all democratic principles. Even though the Palomar voting public is small in numbers, it has the right to elect its representatives. In previous elections, when a lack of senatorial candidates existed, it was required that each candidate receive 25 percent of the votes cast in order to receive the position. This method allowed the students to decide whether they felt a candidate was worthy or unworthy. Green has taken that decision from the students in an action that is no less than dictatorial. Obviously he ignores the fact that it was the democratic system that got him elected into office. The ASG,. which at one time emulated our country's system of government, has now been replaced by an apparent dictatorship. Green wears the hat of dictator well and the senators compose his own personally appointed army. The senators are not to be blamed for holding the positions for which they originally
Larry Boisjolie intended to run. They are to be blamed, however, for not protesting the election cancelation. They have been denied the opportunity to climb the democratic mountain, yet, they are not complaining. There is no victory to be associated with their winning of the positions. Only regret. The voting sect of Palomar should feel slighted by Green's move. Their heartfelt values have been compromised by the artificial values of time and money. It should occur to Green that no amount of money or time can buy the luxuries which the democratic system has to offer. One can only wonder if, when Green reaches future 1 foothills of democracy, he will choose to ignore them. The climb through the system is difficult for good reason. It has delicate paths of checks and balances that can crumble under heavy feet. By canceling the senate race, Green damages the trail almost beyond repair by creating a disturbing precedent. In the future it is hoped that he recognizes the mountain he chooses to ignore exemplifies the very principles he was elected to represent. Throughout history many have given their lives to protect the mountain. Granted it is not a perfect mountain, but it is a majestic one. Steps should be made to improve the mountain's grandeur. Green's steps only lessen its scope.

This freedom was given because the people Julian P. Etheridge running the government didn't trust the government. Time has shown that this precaution has been to the benefit of the people.

OFF THE CUFF
This yellow journalism, unfortunately, is good business. The media is a business. Good business and good journalism do not coincide; you either have one or the other, but never both. This type of good business also contradicts the good journalists in that they go out and find stories. In fact, they go out of their way to fmd how they can make an interesting story. They'll do it at any cost, just to make good business. This isn't the role of the press. Reporting the news is the role. Uncovering the news is sometimes required. That's when a little digging is required. Again, don't get the wrong idea. There is a difference between uncovering the news by good journalists, and creating the news by good businessmen. The Telescope doesn't have to worry about business as much as the other professional newspapers. There's no charge for the paper here on campus, so the focus of this publication can be on good journalism. Along with the bad topics that the press prints, there is also good. In other words, if the ASG does something that is worthy of them, then The Telescope report something good. There's another topic that should be touched upon if the role of the newspaper is being discussed. It has to do with this page you are reading. Inside of a newspaper are the Opinion and Editorial pages. These stories are factual, but they are the opinion and belief of the author. Here is where the writer take sides and either tear down or build up someone's or something's reputation. Also, this page could be used to commend; it's not always negative.

Michael has a reputation of having a very high energy concert and his Faith Tour is no exception. The intensity inside the arena was so high that the crowd was on its feet all night. Before this high energy concert started, a black curtain covered the stage displaying "Faith" in very large letters. As the curtain rose to reveal the band,

Michael's voice could be heard saying, "Sex ... I want your sex," but he couldn't be seen. Then from one corner, Michael stepped onto the stage striking a pose. This pose, being one of his trademarks, started the energy going as he opened his concert with his smash hit "I Want Your Sex." Having his own idea's about sex, Michael feels his enthusiasm comes from what his songs are saying. "It has a lot to do with the fact the new material is far more expression of me as a person," he wrote in his concert program. "It's a far more personal feeling singing these songs. And I'm looking forward to doing that." The enthusiasm continued as he performed other favorites from his latest album "Faith," including "Faith," "Hand to Mouth" and "Monkey." He even included in this tour "Careless Whisper," one of his songs he performed in the group Wham! An extra touch to his concert is the excellent and dazzling laser and light show. The audience was not disappointed with this other trademark of Michael's concerts. Not included, however, was his newest release "Kissing a Fool." This song is definitely heading for the top. The concert, starting at 9:15 p.m., ended about 10:45 p.m. including one encore. Rumors had it that Michael would be in the Sports Arena the next morning, but the fans that stayed all night were disappointed when they discovered it was just that, a rumor.
Critic bananas over Expect to hear the title of this movie a lot next winter following the phrase "The nominees in this category are ... " It should probably win a few, too. The Academy seems quite taken with films that have a grand, special quality (i.e. "Out of Africa," "The Last Emperor"). "Gorillas in the Mist" certainly has that quality, the story of a driven woman and the majestic but vulnerable creatures she loves set against a backdrop of civil war and poverty. The story being told is that of researcher Dian Fossey, played by Sigourney Weaver, and her 20-year odyssey in the Rwandan mountains with a population of gorillas. While the scale is initially large and many of the scenes vastly panoramic, it never seems cinematically self-indulgent, a charge often leveled at big budget, epic scale films. The makers of "Gorillas" avoided this by quickly localizing the action once Weaver's character makes contact with the gorillas. From then on we spend most of our time in her private universe, filled with creatures whose company she obviously prefers to humans. Weaver is able to make her character come alive in the presence of the gorillas. She exudes a sort of radiant joy when she is with these magnificent animals. Through Weaver we see how Fossey literally became addicted to this feeling and was never again able to leave her mountain for any length of time. This addiction is easy to understand, as the scenes with the gorilla families are worth the price of admission alone. The film concentrates on the activities of a few gorilla families which are refered to as groups. A group or family consists of a harem of females and their offspring. The group is dominated by a "silverback." A silverback is a large male with silver-gray hair on his backside. The silverback protects the group and sires the children Fossey becomes particularly attached to one group and its leader, who she names Digit because of a deformity in his hands. The part of Digit is played by one of his former contempories, a huge male named Ziz. All of the scenes are shot with wild gorillas in their natural habitat. The animals are approached in exactly the same way Fossey pioneered and the action is totally spontaneous. Many of the gorillas are from Digit's group and were studied by Fossey until her death. This realism is the key to the film. Watching Weaver go through the same slow process of acceptance as Fossey is exciting and it sells the whole film. It's as if the gorillas approved of this effort to dramatize the life of their fallen friend and gave their full cooperation. Director Micheal Apted proved himself worthy of the trust of Ziz and his friends. The photography is striking without being self-serving, and the pacing is fantastic. The series of highs and lows in this film is perfectly arranged. There is a vibrant mix of sadness and joy, fear and humor, and hatred fueled by love. The ups and downs in this film seem to have the same flow as they do in our lives. The highest compliment one can pay to the structure of a film is that it never drags. And with
~Gorillas'
Jeff Tuttle Film Critic a running time of two and a quarter hours, that is quite a compliment. Weaver's Fossey is quite a different woman by the end of the film, and the tone of the film itself changes around her. When Dian Fossey steps off the plane for the first time in Africa she is a beautiful, vibrant young woman, absolutelly facinated by her new surroundings, voraciously trying to learn about this new world. The mood is bright and even the extras seem inspired. Her joy and fascination reach an apex when she is accepted by the gorillas as a member of their exclusive group. As she spends more and more time with them she fmds it increasingly harder to deal with humans and their motives, which are considerably more complex than those of Digit and his family. Fossey becomes addicted to the simple, peaceful life of the gorillas and continually retreats farther from man's reality. Her addiction generates an obsession with the survival of the gorillas which launches her into a private war with a band of poachers. Apted displays this conflict with wonderful balance. While he shows the brutality of the men who kill the animals for whom we have come to share Fossey's love, we also see that these men kill the gorillas for a meager sum used to feed their children. The director tries to place the blame for this slaughter where it should lie, on those who buy illegal animal products (such as gorilla hand ashtrays). Fossey cannot see the situation this way as she is too horrified and grief stricken to maintain a rational perspective. While she is initially able to make significant progress in protecting the animals, her frustration and anger drive her over the edge and she even resorts to torturing captured poachers. By the time of her death this obsession had made her bitter and old beyond her years. Weaver is masterful at portraying this slow slipping of Fossey's personality. Her face shows an expression akin to Orson Welles' aging Kane, a burning, dark passion, which is steadily consuming her and is running out of fuel. Mention should be made of John Miluni. Miluni is an African mountain ranger who was cast as Sagali, Fossey's guide. Miluni, like Ziz, had never acted before and is a real scene stealer. As her devoted servant he never leaves her and shares our sadness as this remarkable woman is ground down in a struggle she cannot win.

Flowers in the Arboretum have begun to bloom for the fall season. The Arboretum consists of a collection of exotic plants, trees, shrubs and flowers. The collection also consists of plants from all over the world that would be compatible in this environment. Located next to parking lot 5, only eight to ten acres have been planted out of the 20 acres available. The Arboretum was started several years ago by the Development Foundation. Presently, the Gardening Department is in charge of it, with funding by Patrons of Palomar.

Sports Director profiled When you think of sports you think of the Olympics, football, basketball or baseball. And when you think of sports at Palomar, one of our famous Comet coaches may come to mind or maybe a favorite athlete, but there is one name that stands true when talking about sports information. Mark Chlebowski is that name. This week the Telescope stepped off the playing field and into the job of Palomar's own Sports Information Director. A second-year student at Palomar, Chlebowski and his family moved west to Escondido from New Jersey. When he was only six years of age, Chlebowski attended San Pasqua! High School where he played football, golf and the sport he loves best, soccer. It was in high school, his thoughts of radio were at the top of his mind. After taking a year off from school, Chlebowski came to Palomar enrolling in radio classes. That is where Brad Cesmat, a student who has already made a name for himself in the world of radio, took Chlebowski under his wing. "Mark was a shy and quite scared individual when he asked me if he could help out in sports," said Cesmat. Chlebowski started off by doing color for Cesmat in the play-byplay for the Comet football games. Doing the color for a game means you let your listeners know what's going on while the other guy does the play-by-play. Chlebowski continued throughout the rest of the year improving his skills behind the microphone helping out in any way during the basketball and baseball seasons. One of Chlebowski's most memorable games last year was one where he was left in charge to do it by himself. "I was really nervous and what a game to be left doing on my own," said Chlebowski. In that game the Comets went head to head with San Diego City and every player on that team fouled out giving Palomar the win. "As far as doing the play-by-play football, you have to know all the players' names, basketball you have to talk quick, and baseball is a breeze," said Chlebowski about each one of the sports, which do get radio time on the air for KKSM. This year with Cesmat landing a job with radio station XTRA, it allowed Chlebowski to move in as ¡
Ernie Martinez Sports Columnist
the new co-sports information director with Cesmat. Chlebowski's job is to keep track of the sports on campus and promote them to the newspapers, other colleges and high schools. "We (Brad and I) gather the information and let the North County know how each team did in a game or how they are doing. When asking Chlebowski what he thinks about Palomar's athlete program not getting enough coverage, I was almost afraid of the answer he was going to give by the look he gave me when I asked. "A lot of people think that Palomar is a dive institution, a poor college, just some junior college. Palomar has the biggest sports program in California. They don't know that basketball, softball, wrestling and baseball went to the State fmals. Palomar is filled with North County students and athletes just trying to get a chance," said Chlebowski, in a very firm voice. Chlebowski plans to land a bigger job in radio but at the same time stay in school and remain sports information director. "Being the sports director is a lot offun," added Chlebowski. "Mark has come a long way, it is not easy to do what he is doing," said Instructor and Station Manager Russ Jackson. Chlebowski owes a lot to Cesmat as far as helping him in the field of radio and showing him the ways as a sports director, "Brad was the only one who cared to tell you what to do, he has helped a lot of people in many ways," said Chlebowski. On top of being the sports director, Chlebowski is a full-time student and holds a job at Vons as a produce clerk. You can listen to chalk talk five times daily on 98.9 KKSM where Chlebowski keeps you up to date on the world of sports and at the same time gives you his thoughts and picks on the big games. A very busy life indeed, there is only one other way to spell sports and that is Mark Chlebowski.

Wreslers vvin opener By Scott King Sports Editor

Coach John Woods was given an outstanding effort by his Comet wrestlers in the season opener on Sept. 30 against Cypress. The result was a decisive 24-15 Palomar victory. "It was an excellent effort. We wrestled very well," said Woods, of his team's performance against last year's number three team in the state. Palomar, who had lost to Cypress twice last season, was not intimidated with having such a tough match to start the season. "We like to have a tough opener," said Woods. Woods received solid matches from many wrestlers, including Aaron Gaeir (158 pounds). "Aaron had our most decisive win, he beat their best athlete," claimed Woods. Also victorious were John Grubbs (118); Mike Sexton (126); Mike Saletta (142); Carlos Martinez (150); and Brian Milium (167). The Comets had a 24-3 lead before falling in their last three matches. Despite the losses Woods was pleased with the efforts. "All our losses were by very narrow margins, so we're really excited," he said. Woods hopes to get a good look at his team in upcoming matches before conference play opens. "We can get a good idea of what everyone has got, it will be a good barometer," said Woods.
Tom Craft found some encouraging signs. "I was pleased with our effort. To get 444 yards against Saddleback, who is the winningest J.C. in the last 15 years, is remarkable," added Craft. Quarterback Duffy Daugherty shined at times, completing 27 of 50 passes for 325 yards, but was intercepted four times, twice inside the 10-yard line. Mike Jones caught eight of Daugherty's passes for 132 yards. Craft indicated he may move some defensive players over to help the offensive line. "They could give us some stability in the short yardage situations, and the physical aspect of the front line," he said. Daugherty's performance, though inconsistent, has rooted him into the starting role at quarterback. "He is getting better every week He's made some bad decisions, but I like the progress he's made," noted Craft. In what was easily their toughest challenge thus far in the young season, the Comet defense had its ups and downs. "We did hustle and I was pleased with our swarming and getting to the football, but we were just out ofrythm," explained Craft. The same problem that plagued the Comets in an earlier loss to Long Beach City came back to haunt them on Oct. 8 against Pasadena. The Palomar offense commited eight turnovers in a 308 loss at Pasadena. Things won't get any easier for the Comets as they host Golden West on Oct. 15. Both sides of the Comet attack will be pushed to the limit. Since the Comet line is mismatched physically they must devise other plans of attack "We've got to be creative and fmd ways to move the football. I'm not knocking the guys we have, they've exceeded our expectations, but we have to get the physical asspect down," stated Craft. The Comets will need a good effort against Golden West. "We've seen our offense progress and get better every week and I hope our defense can do the same," said Craft.

The Telescope
Parking San Marcos campus site purchased
(continued from page 1)
The purchase of the site where Palomar now stands was announced at a Feb. 19, 1948 Founders' Day dinner, according to the Feb. 26, 1948 edition of The Telescope. According to the article, the purchase was made in anticipation of future growth and a potential overcrowding of area universities. "Because state colleges have found that swollen student bodies result in inefficient teaching, San Diego State has set a limit of 5000 students as its enrollment."
While Boggs said there were no immediate plans to take advantage of raising the parl<ir\g fee, it is an option the college would seriously consider. Boggs said that he has two alternative plans before he would consider raising the student parking fee. The first plan, according to Boggs, would be to negotiate with cities within the college district with a redevelopment program. Two of those cities within the college district, San Marcos and Escondido, have active redevelopment programs and projects. Cities collect tax monies from improvements in a redevelopment project area (such as the Price Club shopping center in San Marcos). By law, those cities are required to negotiate with public agencies to share a portion of the money raised through redevelopment. Boggs said that former administrators did not recognize the benefits from redevelopment but that the college is now negotiating with the city of Escondido on a current redevelopment project. Palomar could receive profits to help with improving parking and other capital improvements, such as the construction of an instructional building to replace relocat-
'Weird game' results in 48-0 Comet loss
"Palomar Cornets lose to Fresno in weird game," read one headline in the Oct. 3, 1951 edition. According to the article, the Fresno Junior College football team beat the Cornets 48-0 in a grueling game that lasted a record three hours and 45 minutes. Although Palomar managed to get 22 downs and 257 yards against Fresno's 14 and 218, they lost the game as the result of fumbles and "bad breaks." "In that one game we had more bad breaks than we had all season last year," admitted then-Coach Bill Dae. "Squad members who never before fumbled or dropped passes just couldn't seem to click" Bomb scare prompts campus evacuation
Palomar had its first bomb scare on Oct. 9, 1967, when an anonymous caller reported two explosive devices were placed "strategically in your area," reported The Telescope in its October 10, 1967 edition. The phone call prompted officials to cancel all afternoon classes and evacuate the campus while a team of 35 Sheriffs deputies joined San Marcos Fire Department members in a campus-wide systematic search. No bombs were found.
able classrooms on the north side of campus in the area known as "redwood city." The other alternative to raising student parking fees would be to negotiate with the developer constructing a housing project off of Las Posas Road near parking lot 12. Boggs said that the developer might be willing to contribute money to pay fqr parking improvements. If Boggs had to consider recommending to the Governing Board to raise the fee for student parking, he said he would bring the issue before the Associated Student Government for input. "We compromised with the (ASG) when we last raised the fee," said Boggs. "The district wanted to raise the fee to $14, but with negotiations with the ASG, the Qoverning Board set the fee at $12. They (students) were torn by the parking problems, but at the same time they didn't want to have to pay a higher fee." When asked if the state would help pay for improvement, Boggs replied that the state feels students should have to front the bill for parking improvements. "It's kind of crazy to me," said Boggs. The other bill signed by the
Dr. George Boggs governor, AB 3958 1 allows a transfer student from out-ofstate to declare him or herself a resident of California if a parent resides in California. Under current guidelines, a student must have lived in California one year before he or she can declare residency. The bill will also become effective Jan. 1. Non-resident tuition is currently $91 per unit. As a resident, the student would pay the normal tuition, $5 per unit up to a maximum of $50 for ten or more units. Editor-in-Chief Larry Boisjolie
ASG claims Private Center's funding
Managing Editor Fred Tracey
(continued from page 2)
Funding will become an obstacle the Women's Center would have to overcome if it is to be restarted. In the 1988-89 Associated Student Government's Budget, '2,000 had been set aside for the center. The ASG, however, has used the money since the recent closing of the center. According to ASG President Ken Green, the senators had agreed to reclaim the money for the Women's Center. They had divided the total sum into different months. At the end of the month, if the Women's Center had not been opened, that money for that rnon th would go into the ASG general fund and used. When the center reopens, the remaining money would be returned. The sum would depend on when it would reopen and the ASG's need to spend the money. The ASG had already used a portion of the money. '65 was used to pay for taxes, according to Green. The Women's Center organized programs for women who were re-enterting college. It had been put "on hold" due to the lack of a coordinator, insufficient fmacial support, and a desire to better utilize room R-10. Located in room R-10, the Women's Center was replaced by the Student Information Center. Room R-7, now formerly the Student Information Center, has become an ASG office used by the president, vice president, and senators. The decision to close the center carne from a collaboration between Jim Bowen, director of Student Activities, and Green. Even though the original room is not available, Bowen said another room could become available when the center is ready to reopen.
When asked if Green remembers giving permission for the release of his records, he implied that he had forgotten. As an example of how easy it could be to obtain someone els~ records, or even change another student's schedule, this reporter was able to add a class to a studenrl> schedule- with the student's consent. No personal identification was demanded by the Admissions employee. According to Herman C. Lee, director of Admissions, Records and Veterans Services, a student is required to have their original class schedule with them in order to add or drop a class. "If a student suspects at all that their schedule has been tampered with, they are requested to come in and deal with it. "We have situations all the time of guys wanting girls~' phone numbers. We also have parents that call asking for the grades of their child, but we can't give that information out. We go strictly by what the student tells us to do," Lee said.
