PATROLS INCREASED

Nursing ranks first in nation

By Larry Boisjolie Editor in Chief By achieving very healthy test scores on the National Council Licensure Examination (NCLEX-RN), the registered nursing program attained the highest ranking in the nation. The test, administered to 30 Palomar graduates last July, measures ability to provide nursing care in a health-care situation.

A total of 52,284 students from 1,416 nursing education programs took the July examination, including students from four-year institutions. All of the students from Palomar received passing grades on the test.

"We typically do have a high passing rate," said Irene Stiller, chairperson of the Nursing Education Department.

"From 95-98 percent of our students usually pass the test."

Wallet thefts hit campus

By Stacie May Staff Writer Six wallets have been reported stolen from several different areas on campus including an equipment room, the library, the Art complex, the U and AA buildings, according to Campus Patrol Supervisor Boyd Mahan.

The wallets were taken from desk drawers, purses, and a shelf within the past month. Campus Patrol is warning people to protect their belongings.

According to Campus Patrol Supervisor, Boyd Mahan, the thief may be another staff member. "One of the wallets was recovered in a women's staff bathroom," said Mahan.

Campus Patrol is combating the rash of thefts by informing staff members and students to use caution, Mahan says, "People just need to use common sense." He suggests locking up belongings when they are not in the owners possession.

Patrol presence will also be stepped up. ''I'm going to increase the visibility of the patrol on campus by hiring more people," Mahan stated.

Time of day seems to be the most common factor linking the thefts. They have all occurred in the midafternoon between 10:30 a.m. and 2:30p.m.

Alice Hall, Department of Communications secretary was one of the victims. Hall left her office to go to the copy machine on January 18, 1989. She was gone for approximately 10 minutes. The door to her office was left open, in her absence. When she returned she noticed that her purse was moved to the back of her desk, but she thought nothing of it. Hall left for lunch shortly afterward. She then discovered her wallet missing and reported it to campus police.

"It was very frustrating," said Hall. She doubts she will ever get the wallet back. Hall now carries her purse with her whenever she leaves her office.

Five leave student senate

By Jonathan Young Staff Writer/Production Manager Members of the Associated Student Government resign so often that it has almost become a weekly agenda item. Five members, including the former president Ken Green, have resigned before completing their terms.

Senator Kevin Etienne resigned before the end of the Fall semester, citing a time conflict between the ASG and school activities. Two other senator positions were opened this week when Harding announced the resignation of Hadia Haaj and James Waldman, bringing the total open senate positions to three.

Waldman stated in his resignation letter," ... I do believe the government should function more as a

government rather than a social organization." He resigned Feb. 1.

Haaj submitted her letter on Jan. 26 with no reason for resignation.

At the Feb. 1 ASG meeting, Harry Sachs was voted to replace Etienne as a senator. Four other students were running for the position, including Jeff Milton, a former ASG Judicial Advocate. One of Milton's main reasons for resigning as a JA was to become a senator.

To fill the remaining two seats, the nominations for senators must be reopened and must remain open for five school days, according to the ASG constitution. Then the nominations must close and the present senators will vote on the replacements.

Added to the two open senate positions, two J A positions are also open - one vacated by Milton and

'87-'88

the other was never filled at the beginning of the year.

When a senator resigns, the position is filled by a vote of the remaining senators. A J A, on the other hand, is appointed by the president of the ASG. The only position that was immediately filled, at the time of availability, was the president's seat after Green resigned on Oct. 25,1988.

Vice-president Michelle Harding succeeded him and remains president at this time. Senator Frank Gravante was voted by the senators as the new vice president.

"Because of personal reasons, I cannot devote the time and energy that I believe is required to carry out the duties of the President," Green wrote in his letter of resignation.

Givi Talakvadze (right) is one of four Soviets visiting the United States as good-will peace ambassadors. Included in their stay was a visit to Palomar yesterday.

Poway added as salellite campus

By Karen Heide Staff Writer Poway High School has just become Palomar College's eighth satellite center.

Total class enrollment is 404 students in the 16 courses offered this semester.

"Poway High School was chosen as a satellite center to keep up with the growth in the area and to expand the satellite program," said Nona McClure, satellite director.

"Hopefully, it will eliminate the difficulty in parking at the Mt. Carmel cam pus ana lessen traffic in that area."

Palomar currently rents classrooms in the M building at the Poway campus, located at the comer of Titan Way and Espola Road. A trailer will arrive soon to house a permanent office and staff will be able to perform the same registration services provided at the main campus. Temporary facilities are open from 5-10 p.m., Monday -Thursday.

The course offerings will be expanded to 80 classes for the Fall '89 semester.

"We'd like to expand to 25 classes at Mt Carmel and 20 classes at Poway each night," McClure stated.

Another satellite center is planned for the new Rancho Bernardo High School. Palomar

classes are scheduled to begin there in 1991.

During the next five years Poway, Rancho Bernardo, and Rancho Penasquitos are projected to gain 64,000 new residents. Two to 4 percent of the populationroughly 1200-2500 people- are expected to seek community college education.

With the growth, and the need to accommodate the area's high school graduates not directly

entering a four-year university, McClure hopes a permanent facility will be built in the area. A full-time campus would allow for day classes and even greater expansion.

"We're just really excited about spreading out and growing in the satellite program," McClure said optimistically. "We hope to have college education within driving distance to everyone in the Palomar district" Editor-in-Chief Larry Boisjolie

TIMES

The Music and Drama Departments have combined their talent and effort to bring a musical drama mystery to campus in midMarch. The production, "The Mystery of Edwin Drood", was Charles Dickens' last work.

Dickens died before completing the mystery, and theatrical convention has been to vary the conclusion of the play from production to production.

The mystery revolves around fmding the killer of Edwin Drood, if he was, in fact, murdered. The melodramatic characters and events oscillate between Cloisterham and London, England, with lurid scenes in London opium dens and in weird comers of Cloisterham Cathedral. The characters include John Jasper, evil choirmaster of the cathedral, his nephew Ed win, and the heroine, Rosa.

Rosa, who is engaged to Edwin, becomes the object of Jasper's undeclared passion. Edwin then disappears, leaving not a trace behind, although circumstances point to foul play.

Each performance involves audience participation in reviewing the various suspects, motives, and plot possibilities. The audience involvement proves to be quite successful in theatrical communities.

Student Services Council sets goals Palomar's Student Services Council filed its current set of student services goals and objectives for the 1988-89 school year

with the Palomar Governing Board during their meeting last Tuesday. The Council's files also included a strategic plan for the upcoming 1989-90 school year.

Dr. David Chappie, assistant superintendent/vice president for student services, presented the plan to the board.

Palomar demographics reported Dr. Robert Barr, the director of institutional research planning, has compiled a report on student demographic trends pertaining to Palomar College

which he presented at the most recent governing board meeting.

This report shows that the number of students coming to Palomar from each local city is increasing and the number of female students outnumbers male students in most age groups. The report also shows that more Hispanic students are attending then in recent years.

Academically, the number of degrees and certificates awarded to students is decreasing, but the performance of transfer students to four-year schools is improving.

New ideas pursued in Health Services

By Violaine Thompson Staff Writer The world of medicine and health care is a rapidly changing world that regularly introduces new facts, medication and ideas.

Student Health Services is making an effort to keep up with these changes so that Palomar students can benefit from them.

Clarice Hankins, director of Student Health Services, recently went to Newport Beach, California to attend the 52nd annual meeting of the Pacific Coast College Health Association. The main focus of the meeting was health issues that affect college and university students.

Dr. Richard Keeling from the University of Virginia, Charlottesville, made recommendations concerning AIDS education. Many of his recommendations have already been incorporated into Palomar's health program.

Health Services hosts an AIDS Awareness Week every semester.

During this event several speakers will lecture on AIDS for any class with the instructor's permission.

Among the speakers will be representatives from the Public Health Department and the AIDS project,

Hankins stated that she believes Palomar's program stands up to Keeling's as a good AIDS educational program. "We've been doing it for about three years now and our program is really pretty good," said Hankins.

Alcohol abuse was also discussed at the meeting.

"People under 25 are more likely to do things under the influence of alcohol that they would not do otherwise and that's very risky in this day and age," Hankins said Alcohol and Drug Abuse Awareness Week will also be coming up this semester.

Palomar already has in place programs concerning education about cholesterol levels and heart awareness. These were issues tar-

Boggs gives greeting Welcome to the spring semester at Palomar College, the college of choice for over 22,000 studerits.lf you are new to Palomar this spring, you will soon find that your presence on our beautiful campus is your invitation to learn, to grow and to form new friendships. Palomar is an institution of people who care about bringing out the best in other people.

Nowhere will you fmd a more qualified and caring faculty and support staff than at Palomar. Their interests are focused on providing an excellent learning environment for students. You will find them to be encouraging and supportive as they ask for your commitment to learning.

Many of our academic and vocational programs have received national recognition for their excellence. Most recently, our associate degree nursing students outranked nursing graduates from every other other program in the country on the registry examination to prove they are number one in America. Last year, Palomar students who transferred to California State University got better grades at the university than students who went directly to the university.

The high quality of all of our educational programs is continually demonstrated by our graduates who succeed at transfer universities or in the careers of their choice. Our reputation for excellence is not an accident; we care about students and their education.

For every student there exists a paper trail.

Palomar College offers a wide variety of activities for almost every For some, the trail is smoothly paved with grade extracurricular interest.

What many of these students do not realize, is that they will not necessarily be officially dropped from the class they choose not to attend. As a result their paper trail is cluttered with failing grades.

The problem with these kinds of paper trails is that Welcome new and returning students. The spring semester has arrived they cannot be easily erased. Students who were at one and we are looking forward to an exciting and challenging session.

OFF THE CUFF Larry Boisjolie

As a result, acceptance to the university of choice is denied. The student is forced to retake the class at Palomar to improve the failing grade. Time is wasted and the possibility of future educational enrichment looks grim.

Many people will at some time fmd a good, valid reason to drop a class. They might not be prepared to handle the load required by a certain course, or personal stumbling blocks may crop up on their paths.

But there is no acceptable reason to not drop a class in the proper fashion.

The process is simple. First fill out a drop form.

Have the instructor of the course to be dropped sign it, then bring the form to Admissions and Records. The hardest part about the whole process is waiting in line to hand in the slip.

Students have until February 17 to drop a class with only an instructor's signature. At about four weeks from the beginning of instruction, this is more than enough time to fill out a simple form.

For students having serious and compelling reasons, classes may be dropped as late as April21, with a 'W' appearing on their records.

So let your paper trail lead you in a positive direction and follow proper dropping procedures. If you don't, you could find yourself at the bottom of a deep abyss that is impossible to get out of.

Friday. February 3, 1989

CONCERTS CLASSICAL

Burt Reynolds takes aim at unsuspecting audiences in 'Physical Evidence.'

'Physical Evidence' cops out with weak plot and direction Only twice in my life have I found a film to be so worthless and utterly unenjoyable as to cause me to walk out. Had I not been bound by my editorial duties to The Telescope and to you, my readers (numbering well into the teens by now), 'Physical Evidence' would surely have been my third aborted viewing.

'Physical Evidence' is a horribly botched attempted cross between a courtroom drama and an action/cop movie, starring Burt Reynolds as a down and out cop accused of murder. Theresa Russell co-stars as his court-appointed defender, Jenny Hudson. Ned Beatty also surfaces from time to time as the D.A., and also to remind us what real acting looks like, even in the face of a horrendous script. These three people are awash in a sea of conflicting plot lines, pointless characters with unexplained motives, and all around bad movie making.

Reynold's cop, Joe Paris, awakens to find that he is being arrested by his brother officers for a murder that took place the night before. Unfortunately for Joe, he really tied one on that night and can' t account for his whereabouts. Hudson convinces her boss to let her handle the case, as she is convinced it will significantly advance her career (don't ask me why).

As soon as Hudson gets the case, everyone and his dog turns up to provide Paris with an alibi for the night of the murder. About every ten minutes for the first hour of this film, a new character arrives, either to provide Paris with an alibi, or to be added to the list of suspects. Several people show up for no reason at all.

Then, near the end of the film, people start to get killed for no reason at all. (unless they were perhaps mercy

Jeff Tuttle Film Critic killings, providing these unfortunates an early escape from this dreadful waste of perfectly good film stock.

Every time the plot stalls out, some new face pops up with new information, which gives the lame story line enough fuel to chug along until we get to the next new character. The manresponsible for the crime isn't even introduced until the film is two-thirds over and it's already impossible to care who killed who or why.

Enduring this constant procession of new characters is not unlike going to a friend's office party. You spend a couple of hours being subjected to an endless flow of faces, none of whose names you can remember. Listening to them babble on about things you couldn't care less about, and basically just looking for a an exit so you can get the hell out and go home.

The dialogue is so wooden, the script copies must have been treated for termites (rim shot please). The

Animal trainers don't monkey around

By Jonathan Young Staff Writer/Production Manager Animal Trainers at the San Diego Wild Animal Park begin their day at 7 a.m. with the cleaning and feeding of animals. Ten hours later with five shows completed, their day ends. It's hard work, but they love their job.

These workers in the Wildlife Workshop program add something special to the park. They train exotic animals to perform natural behaviors. They use these trained animals in shows to educate the public.

The task of training exotic animals may seem all fun and games, but the trainers know otherwise.

The day starts with cleaning the enclosures of the 23 animals used in the Wildlife Workshop program.

This part could become boring with its repetition, but Senior Animal Trainer Terri Schuerman explains that this is necessary.

"This is the most routine part of the day," Schuerman says. "To me, it's the most important" She describes this task as a check on the animal's health. She notices the movement or alertness of the animal, if it is eating or what it's digesting. "Our high tech job is to be poop evaluators ... but that's part of the job.

"It's like a baby. A baby can't tell if they're sick or hurt. It's the same with animals."

"It (the cleaning) is most necessary," says Joan Rice, an animal trainer who is also a zoology student at Palomar. "I don'tconsiderit bad. It's 99.9% good fun." Rice said the other one tenth percent would be fun if it wasn't for rain and mud.

Cleaning isn't restricted to those workers lower in seniority.

"It doesn't matter what level of seniority you're at, you still clean the pens," said Ron Henriques, one of the newest animal trainers at Wildlife Workshop. He explains that in the animal training program, a bond must be kept between the

Zoology at Palomar At Palomar, students are provided with academic background for upper division work in Zoology or Biology. Students are prepared for entry level jobs involving knowledge of wildlife and/or custody of captive animals.

Students planning to transfer to a four-year institution are advised to check for additional courses which may be required.

Palomar offers over 20 classes for zoology, ranging from mammal study, to marine life, and birds.

trainer and the animal. That time spent with them in the morning helps to strengthen the bond.

The other half of the morning routine includes the preparation of food and the feeding of some animals. Others are fed in the afternoon and at night.

"It's really quite organized, and it has to be. The size of the food is so important that it affects the animal's life. It sounds dramatic, but it's true. We have so many different types of animals that we have to know what's good for the toucan, the owl, or the binturong."

After the morning routine is finished, it's time for a coffee break.

The subject of conversation among the Park's employees is not animals, but a new union contract to be voted on. All Park employees, with the exception of the administrators, are members of the Teamsters Union.

After the coffee break, the second part of the morning is spent en training.

Wildlife Workshop, as well as other park programs, use a system called "operant conditioning" or "positive reward."

"Simply put, an animal learns through constant practice that certain actions will be rewarded and

Senior Animal Trainer Terri Shuerman (below) removes corn from its cob for the Vietnamese Potbellied Pig, Wilbur. others will be ignored, thwarted and/or disciplined," Schuerman said. She explained the philosophy is to encourage proper behavior through a very positive approach.

The animals favorite food is used exclusively in training. It makes it a rewarding experience.

This part of the day is also time for what Henriques describes as "maintaining the behavior." They don't train an animal, but they have it do its cued behaviors.

Rice also goes on a food run, or what she simply calls "shopping."

She takes a trip to the Parks' warehouses to collect fresh food and hay. Menu items may include carrots, yams, eggs, beef heart, crickets, and dead mice and birds.

Rice doesn't mind handling the dead animals as food. She says, "It's just something you do."

11:00 a.m. starts the third part of the day.

It's at this time that Wildlife Workshop starts the "Wild Welcome" shows, a 10 or 15 minute performance. Henriques says this show is informal and allows the visitors to touch the animals. There is no script to this show; the dialogue is based on how much the visitors want to know.

These shows continue off and on with different animals and when time allows until lunch.

After lunch, they prepare for the 2:00 p.m. performance of "Critter Encounter," their main show.

"We do not do circus acts with them (the animals)," said Schuerman. "We do educational programs with them." This is one reason why she finds it hard to classify herself and her colleagues as just trainers. They're also educators.

"Generally, we have three ani-

mals per show," says Rice. She explains that the number of animals depends on how the animals are feeling and on the weather. She says an owl would be a good choice forrainy days because he's "oblivious."

Between the first "Critter Encounter" and the last at 3:30 p.m., the trainers spend their afternoon feeding animals with the exception of those animals used in the show.

Then preparations are made for the last performance.

"Our shows are so close together, we usually have just enough time to go and get ready for another show," says Henriques.

The remainder of the day is spent as "project time" when they have time to do research on certain new animals, write or learn a new show script, or even build a new enclosure.

This forth and fmal part of the day of projects ends at 5:30p.m., but as Schuermll!l said, "This was a normal and easy day,"

Archer promotes political enthusiasm

By Violaine Thompson Staff Writer

Students trying to fulfill their general education requirements as well as participate in extra-curricular activities often fmd it hard to stay informed about the social, economic and political issues of the day. .

It's easy for students to become frustrated while attempting to remember the different names of politicians, treaties, or dates when bills and laws were passed. Fortunately for Palomar, there is a man on ·campus who can help decipher that information and put it into logical order.

Dr. Roy Archer, an instructor in his 25th year at Palomar, brings an aspect of knowledge and experience to his political science classes that, like fire, sparks a desire in many students to learn more about the world around them.

Even a student who is not particularly interested in politics may find themself caught up in one of Archer's classroom discussions that, at times, can last for most of the period.

"I encourage classroom discussions," says Archer, "to better clarify the questions the students

might have."

According to Ken Green, former president of the Associated Student Government, "He (Archer) voices his opinion and lets you voice your own opinions." Green also said that Archer helped him in student government by saving old newspaper clippings and recording past ASG decisions.

Archer fmds students lack knowledge about what is going on in the world today. Resays, "Students do not have a knowledge of world geography, that is why I give map quizzes." He also has two current events tests during the semester and requires his class to subscribe to Time Magazine.

By the time students fmish his class, Archer wants them to have a basic understandingofhow American government works and the role that it plays in the world today.

The students in his classes are learning from a man who has years of first-hand experience. "I believe I've always been interested in politics,"said Archer. "I remember that I was politically involved in a 1940s election." With a laugh, he went on to explain that he was only 6-years-old at the time, but was involved in it nevertheless.

The election was Wilkie vs.

Teacher Feature 'I encourage classroom discussions to better clarify the questions the students might have.'

- Dr .Roy Archer Roosevelt Pointing to a picture of Hubert Humphry on the wall, Archer said, "I was actually in the Humphrey presidential campaign in 1960 in the state ofWest Virginia. I worked for Humphrey when he ran for the presidency in '68 also."

In 1966 and 1968, Archer ran for a seat in the state assembly, but like many other California Democrats who run in a county renowned for its Republican strength, he was

unsuccessful.

As a politician, Archer is not afraid to get involved and stand up for what he believes. He explains that in 1980 the Democrats could not find anybody to run in this area and Tom Metzger, former head dragon of the Klu Klux Klan, ran and got the Democratic party nomination.

"So I ran in 1982 to prevent Metzger, or somebody like Metzger, from getting the Democratic party

nomination."

Although this active Democrat may occasionally use his appeal and command of English to win students over to his party, he says, "If students want to get involved in any of the five major political parties in California, they can see me and I will direct them to people of their respective party that will get them involved."

While sitting in Archer's classroom it is easy for a feeling of patriotism to take over. The observer is surrounded by walls covered with historical documents, signs and posters.

In his office there are also many items from his Boy Scout troop.

The scoutmaster says, "I have been active in Boy Scouts for 30 of my 54 years."

He achieved the rank of Eagle, which is the highest rank within the Boy Scouts. Today, Archer is the scoutmaster for a large troop in Escondido, which at one time was the largest troop in the county.

Archer takes his Escondido troop on a camping trip at least once a month. They also take other trips which can be enjoyable learning experiences. He enthusiasti-

It's never been difficult for students to convince their parents of the need for a Macintosh8 computer at school.

Persuading them to write the check, however, is another thing altogether.

Which is why Apple created the Student wanto-Own Program.An ingenious loan program that makes buying a Macintosh as easy as using one.

Simply pick up an application at the location listed below, or call

800-831-LOAN. All your parents need to do is fill it out, sign it, and send it. If they qualify, they'll receive a check for you in just a few weeks.

There's no collateral. No need to prove financial hardship. No application fee.

Best of all, the loan payments can be spread over as many as 10 years.

Which gives you and your parents plenty of time to decide just who pays for it all.

FOOTBALL OVER BUT ...

Coach's work just begun

By Scott King Sports Editor

When the fmal gun sounded on Palomar's football season last December, Coach Tom Craft's work was seemingly over. In a sense, his work had just begun.

During the coming months Craft and his assistants will be busy recruiting area high school players, placing outgoing players, and gearing up for spring practice.

Recently the Comet staff received good news when two former All-C.I.F. defensive linemen announced they will attend Palomar this spring and will play football in the fall.

Clarence Loa, 6-foot-1, 260 pounds, was a first team All-C.I.F. performer at Vista High School in 1987. After playing a season at Weber State in Ogden, Utah, Loa decided to transfer to Palomar due to health problems in his family.

Casey Malauulu, (5-10, 235), was a first team All-C.I.F at El Camino High School in 1984, and

played in 85 at Palomar while earning second team All-Mission Conference honors.

"These two guys will have a significant impact on our program," said Craft. A significant impact is just what Palomar needs to compensate for the loss of many quality players who will go on to play at four-year universities.

The most notab!e of the exiting Comets is quarterback Duffy Daugherty. With credentials such as first team All-State, honorable mention All-America and first team Academic All-America, it is easy to see why he has captured the interest of coaches all across the country.

"Interest in Duffy will heat up in May when the schools come in here to recruit," Craft said. Daugherty has had several big name schools interested in acquiring his talents.

Michigan State, Texas A&M, SMU, to name a few, and Colorado State tossed their hat into the ring last week.

Daugherty is a fall transfer from

the University of New Mexico and must remain at Palomar until the conclusion of the spring semester.

He appears to be leaning toward the University of Pennsylvania with Idaho State and Western Kentucky also in the hunt.

Offensive lineman Brian Lasho, (6-4, 275), had been recruited by BYU, Long Beach State, Weber State, San Jose State and Utah, but has signed with Fresno State.

Wide receivers MikeJ ones, (6-3, 180), and Marcus Wesley, (6-1, 170), are on their way to big-time college football as well. Jones was being sought by Utah and Washington, while Wesley is on his way to Cal State Fullerton along with fellow Comet Shawn Forristal (62, 215). Forristal is a hard-hitting linebacker and a steady force on defense. Malauulu and Loa will help offset the loss ofForristal next season.

With spring practice coming soon, Craft has his work cut out for him before the opening gun of 1989.

Women's softball starts year Brian Marchand Sports Writer

With the 1989 season right around the comer, Palomar's head softball coach Mark Eldridge is preparing his team to defend their 1988 conference championship.

Beginning with class work last August, Eldridge enters his twelfth year as head coach. With an impressive track record of eight conference titles in the past 10 years and two second place finis!1es in state competition in the past three, Eldridge feels no pressure to have a successful year. "We expect to do

well," said Eldridge. "I have high expectations of the players and they have high expectations of themselves."

According to Eldridge, Palomar has many good softball players that do not try to make the team. "I think some of the girls are scared off by our record," the coach said. "The girls who do come out, though, do it for the good coaching and exposure to bigger colleges."

Only five players return from last year, leaving Eldridge to develop young, unproven talent. All-Conference and All-Southern Californian honorees Kim Keen and Suzy

Speckman come back as sophomores to lead the squad, along with sophomore Lisa Ferracone. Freshmen standouts Cami Allen, Christie Westerlund, and Kenda Leffler look to be the team's hot new stars.

Palomar's toughest challenges will likely come from San Diego Mesa, Southwestern, and Grossmont. The Comets have fared well against them before Palomar was scheduled to open the season with a scrimmage against U.S.I.U. on Wednesday, Feb. 1, then hold the fourth annual alumni game on Sunday, Feb. 5.

With the loss of all five of its starters from last year's team, the_ Comets' men's basketball team was forced to regroup.

Under the guidance of Head Coach Andy Gilmour, they have done well, posting a 13-10 record in the Pacific Coast Conference, with a team that starts three freshman.

Among these freshman is point guard Dave Delaney from Poway High school. Delaney is currently among the leaders in assists averaging just under five per game, with a free throw percentage of 79%.

Gilmour says he would rather play Delaney as an off-guard because of his excellent shooting ability, but due to the lack of a true point guard, he must play Delaney there. Delaney has showed a lot of people including Gilmour that he can indeed play the point.

Delaney is complimented in the backcourt by sophomore Greg Edwards. Edwards, according to Gilmour, is not only a good shooter but an excellent passer, averaging over three assists per game.

At center for the Comets is Lee Cobb, who, said Gilmour, "has the talent to go Division 1." The 6-foot6 freshman from El Camino High school has considerable ability which his statistics verify. Cobb leads the conference in rebounds, is second in field goal percentage,

and seventh in scoring.

The leading scorer for the Comets is 6-foot-4 sophomore Darryl Smith. Gilmour calls Smith "a pleasant surprise and the most mature player on the team." Averaging just under 16 points per game, Smith is fourth in the conference in scoring.

Rounding out the starting five is 6-foot-2 freshman Deon Coleman.

"Coleman is one of the better defenders on our team," said Gilmour, "He's quick." Deon is also among the leaders in scoring and shooting percentage.

With such a young team, and one having not played together until this year, many would have expected problems, especially early on.

Not so, however. Included in those 13 victories were impressive victories in tournament play throughout California.

The teams in their league are giving them the problems, as their 3-4 record in league play indicates.

The league, according to Gilmour, is very evenly matched.

"Most of our games haven't been decided until the final three or four minutes, sometimes even the last minute."

In their two most recent games, Palomar has shown some weaknesses on defense. Against San Diego City they gave up 115 points and 109 against Grossmont, both losing efforts.

Their next contest will be at league rival MiraCosta this Saturday.at 7:30p.m.

script is so bad in fact, that I can't really comment on the quality of the acting. Even Master Thespian couldn't deliver these lines with any degree of believability.

The horrible writing only adds to problems of an already weak plot.

We are supposed to feel a tension between the two main characters, due to their different backgrounds and attitudes. All they're really trying to set up is the cliche relationship between the hard-boiled, macho (i.e. violent), cop, and the driven but vulnerable female. But the writer, Bill Phillips, fails even to do this. There is no believable tension between them. They simply trade hollow bits of dialogue throughout the film.

In addition to this we are asked to believe that there is an attraction beyond the tension. We are never given any reason to think either of these two people would bat an eye if the other dropped dead, let alone be romantically inclined toward

one another. So, near the end when they express these feelings for each other it's alm,ost maddening (and defmitely sickening). Are we just to assume that because he's the leading man and she the leading woman, they must fall in love? It's awful hard to swallow. Especially the fact that this beautiful and supposedly sharp young lawyer would fall for this drunk, stinky, bully of an ex-cop. But hey, c'mon, he's Burt Reynolds, how can she resist?

The flawed plot and weak writing combine with the choppy editing to make this fllm a true triple crown contender. The scenes in this film are ~eld together by little more than the tape with which they were spliceq. Transition is almost nonexistent. We are mercilessly jerked from one scene and location to another with no feel for where we have been, or why we're where we're at now.

Many scenes do not even establish their purpose before they're

over. And the courtroom scenes seem randomly injected, as do Beatty's appearances.

There is one good thing about this film. It ends prematurely, sort of like another mercy killing. The film ends on a horrible freeze frame of Jenny Hudson laughing after she has just finished gunning down the mobster who ordered the killing her client is accused of. This is presumably the first time this upper-class socialite turned public defender has blown away an underworld kingpin at point-blank range, but it's good she can laugh about it.

The filmmakers never bothered to tell us how the court case turned out, where Joe Paris actually was the night of the murder, or who actually did the killing. This is not meant as criticism, however, far from it. I'm thankful they decided to leave this information out, as to include it would have only made the film that much longer.
