Escondido facility site sought By Karen Heide Staff Writer In an effort to expand services, Palomar is searching for a suitable site for a facility in Escondido. The facility will offer day and evening classes as well as counseling and administrative services. Original plans for leasing the space formerly occupied by the TG& Y store in the Escondido Village mall were shelved after negotiators couldn't settle on a price conducive to the Palomar budget. "We projected we could pay 70 cents per square foot based on total costs and expected enrollment, but the owners of TG& Y wanted more," said Bryant Guy, director of purchasing and an instrumental part of negotiations. There was also a question of being able to remain at the site for several years. Guy described the length of the lease as "up in the air." Sharing space with the Department of Motor Vehicles in the vacant Handyman store was another possibility. There was plenty of space in the building for classrooms and offices, but not enough room outside for 300-400 parking spaces necessary to accommodate a learning facility of this size. After the Handyman site was no longer feasible, two other possibilities were contacted and the negotiators are waiting to hear the results of the offers. Several other locations are being kept in mind. Interim Dean of Community Education Jim Clayton has been helping Bryant Guy and Dean of Humanities Gene Jackson in assessing the possible locations. "We need a site with accessibility for students coming from all areas: Escondido, Ramona, Rancho Bernardo," Jackson says. "We also examine the size of the facility, what changes need to be made, and if the parking lot is large enough. The new sites certainly have potential." A whole spectrum of day and evening classes will be offered at the branch as well as counseling and administrative services. The program will be set up so students will be able to get an AA degree without coming to the main campus. "It won't be a second campus, but it will be self-contained," according to Jackson. "The faculty whom we've talked with felt good about maintaining the same criteria and standards at the branch as on the main campus."

Microscope gift sparks plans By Mark Hopkins Staff Writer The University of California at San Diego's recent donation of a transmission electron microscope to Palomar's Life Sciences Department has spurred plans to develop a certificate program in electron microscopy. The microscope, which was manufactured by the West German firm Zeiss in 1970, has a maximum possible magnification power of 60,000x and a resolving power of seven angstrom units. If a penny
was enlarged at this power, the resulting image would be equal to the size of twelve football fields. Cell components of a blade of grass on these playing fields could be scrutinized with ease. The microscope has a replacement value of a $250,000. Robert Ebert, associate professor in life sciences, sees the donation of the electron microscope from the Department of Pathology at UCSD's School of Medicine as a good beginning for Palomar's program. "We have three levels of usage
for it. At the first level we will try to incorporate it into half-a-dozen (existing) laboratory courses," said Ebert. "The next level, which might begin in the fall, is to offer a course in electron microscopy. We have already written a syllabus up and we got it in just in time for approval by the Curriculum Committee and for the catalog for next year. "The third level would be to expand the program (with the addition of a scanning electron microscope), into a full-fledged technician program. There are only two such programs at community col-

leges in the state, one at L.A. City College and the other at San Joaquin Delta College, in Stockton." Even though the microscope itself is a gift, maintenance expenditures have arisen and it is unclear where funding will come for additional expenses. Two incurred expenses have been the installation of the microscope and a cooling unit to keep it from over-heating. "The amount that was approved was a maximum of $2,500," said Diane Michael, dean of science, technology and business. "I believe that Dr. Jan Moser (assistant superintendent/vice-president for instruction) took it out of one of her funding sources. We are hoping that next year that fund would be reimbursed from the growth funds." According to Moser, the $2,500 came out of the Instructional Equipment Repair Fund. Ebert himself has doubts concerning where funding is going to come from for some peripheral equipment. "The question still lies where are we going to get some of the other equipment. "I suppose $5,000 to get all up and going would probably be pretty close," said Ebert Among the items that need to be purchased are a knife-maker and an ultra-microtome. An ultra-microtome cuts very thin sections of a specimen with a glass knife that is sharper than a razor; the knifemaker sharpens the knives. According to Bob Larson, EM pathology technician at UCSD, an ultra-microtome costs, "for a cheap one $15,000, but for a good automatic one we are looking at about $25,000- $30,000."

Fashion contest highlights forum By Michelle Pollino Staff Writer Forty-two fashion merchandising students from Palomar will attend a Fashion Symposium at the California Apparel Mart on April 29, in Los Angeles. The Symposium consists of some 50 guest speakers, a luncheon and a fashion show/contest. Of the students attending, 15 to 20 will enter their works in the contest. There will be 12 categories including, makeover, visual merchandising, buying, illustration and six categories of design. The finalists in the design categories will present their works in the contest. Students may enter as many categories as they desire. The awards for the contest are as follows: first place-$250, second-$100 and third-$50.
Students from every community college in California will be competing in the contest " This is the first year they split the categories as to the size of the school. Now Palomar has an even better chance of winning than before," said Nancy Galli, fashion program coordinator here at Palomar. "Well known and respected representatives of the fashion community will be on the panel of judges," added Galli. Also at the Symposium, the winner of the Rudi Gernreich scholarship will be announced. Ken Imaizumi, a Palomar student who applied for the scholarship, was picked as one of the finalists. The scholarship awards the student $1500. There will also be a fashion show at the Palomar College Theatre on May 19 at 7 p.m. The show is being produced by the
Promotions\Fashion Merchandising class. The show , which is choreographed, includes segments on activewear, career wear, sportswear, evening wear and design. The design segment is separate to show off the clothing created here at Palomar.m ''The students put the whole thing together from scratch," said Galli. "There is a lot of work to put into a show, it'smoreofaproduction than it used to be." The panel of judges will be made up of local merchants and designers. There will be door prizes and awards for best design. Tickets for the Palomar show are $4 and go on sale April28. They can be purchased from the Fashion Program Cooridinator, Nancy Galli, in Staff Building 3, room ST43, or any of the fashion merchandising students.

Children participated in several days of fun and games last week during the 'Week of the Young Child.' The yearly campus event is designed to publicize the rights and needs of America's children.
Gift (continued from page 1) Ebert would like to see the project completed in two years. "We would do well next year to incorporate ~1e electron microscope into classroom laboratories and to teach at least one or two courses in electron microscopy." Ebert hopes to eventually create a certificate program in electron microscopy. "That would be contingent on getting further donations, because I don't see us being able to buy additional electron microscopes ... they are real expensive," said Dean Michael. Ebert sees money coming for a scanning electron microscope from a variety of sources. "From Vocational Education money; other places that would be possible funding sources would be local industries. We will take whatever we can get, but it probably would be best if we had a state-of-the-art microscope instead of a hand-medown." Another uncertainty lies in who will teach the electron microscopy course. "The approach would be to hire the best possible person we could find to teach it on an hourly basis, and then we (departmentalfaculty) would probably take it the first time, to find out how to use the thing," said Ebert. According to Dean Moser, staffing recruitment for the course would first come from within the life sciences faculty as an overload assignment, and if none of the faculty is qualified to teach the course then an outside instructor would be contracted to teach the course. "I don't see how we can run a full-fledged technician program without at least a scanning electron microscope in addition to this one," said Ebert. "We're sitting here and talking about dreams, but dreams become reality."
Coming Next Month! Preparations are now underway for The Telescope's final publication, "A Year In Review." This newsstyle magazine will be 20 pages, include a full-color cover photos, and feature the Palomar campus a way never before done.

'Scumbag hippies' didn't show intelligence with demonstrations I read with interest the article written by Violaine Thompson. On the surface, I couldn't agree more. In her article, she tries to motivate students to stand up and voice their beliefs. This is advice I would give to anyone. However, the article reminds us of the turbulent 60s and the demonstrations by those wimp hippies. Those scum bag hippies with their stupid and brainless demonstrations got nothing accomplished except smoking dope, dropping acid, throwing rocks and bottles at an out-manned police force and having those famous "love-ins." How these gutless liberals face their families today, I will never know. I'm not saying people shouldn't be heard, but I think there are better ways of doing it rather than taking part in a riot. These demonstrations don't do any good but to have people getting hurt, arrested or even killed. It's my opinion that those worthless demonstrators of the 60s suffer from a condition I call "Monkey Mentalitysm." Think about it, anybody could train an average monkey to walk around with a sign, to throw rocks and bottles at a uniform and to smoke dope on a college campus. Those gutless wimps sure weren't demonstrating their intelligence . . I urge all college students not to suffer from "Monkey Mentalitysm" and show their intelligence by not emulating those back-stabbing liberals of the 60s. You can do the right thing by expressing yourself on paper to your congressmen in Washington,D.C. and when it comes time to vote, vote! Patrick E Lacy, Student
Lack of student information left with family and friends For some time the Telephone Office on campus has been concerned about the lack of emergency information left with family, friends, children's schools, day care centers, sitters, etc. For your information, when an emergency call is received it is immediately transferred to the Vice-President of Student Services' office for prompt location of the student. Only true emergency messages will be delivered. It is important that students realize that with only a name the process to identify and locate a person in class involves more time than normal and. in an emergency, time is important. Perhaps a complete schedule of classes including room numbers, instructors names and class times should be left with the family, friends and schools and sitters and should be updated each semester after registration. Also, if you work on campus,consider including your work schedule and extension number. Minutes can seem like hours to a sick or injured person. That is why we urge you to make these emergency arrangements as each new semester begins.
Consumers flip bill for oil sPill "A bear sleeps in the dead of winter, while all around people are hard at work," the commercial says. Yet before that alleged bear awakens, those same men are hard at work to clean up the enviro~ment so the animal can roam the land unaware that man has been there. At the end of the commercial a major oil company claims that it exerts all that effort because it cares. It would be nice if the oil giants cared about people as much as they supposedly care about animals. Last month one of those oil giants, Exxon, was the company responsible for the largest oil spill by an American oil corporation when one of its supertankers struck a reef off the coast of Alaska. In two days gasoline prices increased by 20 cents per gallon. Exxon justified the move by claiming the disaster would create a costly depletion of American oil supplies. The increases, they claimed, would only be temporary. Immediately, money-hungry oil companies seized the opportunity to raise their gasoline prices also. They cited the temporary closing of the Alaskan pipeline for justification of the action. The pipeline
OFF THE CUFF Larry Boisjolie was closed for less than a week in response to the tanker accident Now the oil flows through the pipes as vigorously as it had before the disaster. There are no indications of danger to oil supplies, but gas prices continue to skyrocket. It seems apparent that the only thing Exxon and the other oil companies care about is money. Inspired by nothing but greed, oil companies are pouncing on the

Connor needs to learn that cheaters never prosper In response to the editorial about the America's Cup, I feel that Dennis Connor and the San Diego Yacht Club got their just desserts. I believe that Judge Carmen Beauchamp Ciparick' s decision was justified. As a child we all learn, "che.aters never prosper." I feel that the San Diego Yacht Club, along with Skipper Dennis Connor really stretched the rules by building a catamaran. Keep in mind, 102 years ago there were not many catamarans. I agree that both men acted like spoiled brats; however, I feel that it was the greed of Connor that gave the America's Cup the black eye. I believed that the race was summed up best when you described it as a race between a Ferrari and a tricycle. I think that the sour grapes in the America's Cup race was a result of both teams losing the "spirit." Hopefully, the loss of the $1.2 billion in extra revenue to the city will teach the San Diego Yacht Club and Dennis Connor that age old lesson, "cheaters never prosper."

'Unpolished smut' makes album fun Burning Spear, Live in Paris (Slash Records)
If you like reggae music then I'd recommend this album. However, if you don't like reggae music then I'd strongly recommend this album! It's that good! It's almost guaranteed to bring out the Rastafarian in all of us. This album is irresistable and loaded with smooth spirit-raising tracks. Burning Spear has recorded a gem. All songs are written by the band's leader and vocalist, Winston Rodney, who in my mind is a musical genius. Both harmony and rhythm explode off this double-live album. You feel the closeness of the band, the warmth of the crowd, the presence of Rodney and the rhythmical beat of those sweet island drums. The first song,"Spear Burning,"sets the mood for the entire album and quickly establishes Burning Spear's unique and intimate sound. My personal favorites (besides the whole album) are "New Experience," "Built This City" and the superb irresistable third cut,"The Youth." In "The Youth," Burning Spear asks that musical question, "Do you have that feeling? That irie feeling? That good good irie feeling?" Oh! I can hear it now! The entire album is persuasive and compelling. And I would strongly recommend it to even the most distant and introverted listeners of reggae. From the opening cut to the last track, Burning Spear will have you "jammin to the music." Look for this one everywhere. This is one album that every reggae collecter should have. It's essential. Mojo Nixon and Skid Roper, Root Hog Or Die (Enigma Records) You would think that Mojo Nixon would slow down after his real-life marriage last month. But Mojo Nixon slow down? Wouldn't think of it. In fact, Mojo manages to tum himself up a notch or two. His first words mouthed off this musical/comical compilation are,"Debbie Gibson is pregnant with my two headed love child." Need I go on?
Tim
Harmo Music Critic
This album is loaded with raw, unpolished smut and relentless washboard banging. It's fun and unfearing. And that's what sets this album apart from any other. Mojo and Skid will take you into uninhibited areas of social concern. Mojo sings about everything from coleslaw to go-carts. In addition to the Debbie Gibson song and "(619) 239-KING," I also like "Chicken Drop," and 'Tm a Wreck," From the man who brought you, "Elvis is Everywhere," comes "(619) 239-KING": a promotional song to find Elvis Presley. But isn'tElvis dead? Well in the mind of Mojo Nixon there exists a slight possibility that Elvis is alive and kicking. Perhaps even driving a tractor in the far -off land of Wisconsin. Mojo cleverly planned a real phone number where listeners are invited to call and leave a message on his answering machine (providing that you've got some valuable information on the real whereabouts of "The King"). And if the area code on this one sounds familiar it's because Mojo resides in San Diego County. And if Mojo lives in San Diego County, the possibility exist that maybe Mojo has seen Elvis here! Or perhaps Elvis lives with Mojo in a trailor park in Lakeside ... or maybe even farther, Mojo Nixon is Elvis! W ell,whatever the case, you can leave a message on Mojo's machine, and if you do, don't forget to mention KKSM - The Home of Elvis Presley.
'Winter People' warms critic There aren't a lot of Rlovies like "Winter People" being made these days, at least not by major studios. "Winter People" is simply an honest, raw, compelling tale about a group of people trying to survive Film Critic in the Pennsylvania back country during the Depression. It is that honesty in storytelling that I found so refreshing in this film. The filmmakers took a good story (the film is based on a novel by John Ehle) and told it simply and professionally. Kurt Russell stars as Waylon Jackson, a Norwegian immigrant clock builder on the move after the death of his wife. When his truck breaks down, Jackson and his daughter seek refuge at a nearby farm house. The house is occupied by Collie Wright (Kelly McGillis) and her infant son. Jackson is fascinated by this independent woman. This fascination draws Jackson closer and closer to Collie and to her family. After a rigorous trial period, Jackson and his daughter, Paula, are accepted by the Wrights. Jackson then finds himself at the
Jeff
Tuttle center of a potentially explosive conflict between the Wrights and the Campbells, the rival clan from across the river. Russell does a wonderful job as the reserved, yet warm and witty, Scandinavian craftsman. He gives Jackson a sense of stoicism reminiscent of Gary Cooper, a quiet, confident man who will meet destiny head on, knowing he's tried to do the right thing. Jackson is that most admirable of heroic characters, a man who approaches a challenge with a mix of confidence, hope, and fear overcome by reason and will, not mindless bravado. Kelly McGillis does almost as well at bringing the necessary qualities out in Collie. McGillis' character is a very unglamorous woman who has been made tough by her surroundings. Yet she has a natural beauty and warmth which are very strong, even in the bitterly
cold environment by which she is surrounded. The supporting cast are equally successful in filling out their characters to their full dramatic potential. The only exception to this may be Lloyd Bridges, who is cast as Collie's father, patriarch of the Wrights. Lloyd does a pretty good job, but the fact that he's so well known and has played this type of role so often distracts from his performance. "Winter People" is a very well balanced movie all-around. The pacing is excellent. Events unfold and new information is uncovered at a steady, realistic pace. The characters are all developed fully enough for us to care about them and understand their motives. As a result of this, the rival family is not a group of mindless, evil brutes, merely an obstacle to be overcome by our protagonists. They are people with feelings, brains, and reasons for doing as they do. Empathy for the opposition makes conflict, the basis of drama, much more compelling and involving than alienation, which leads to an often stale us/them set up. "Winter People" took a chance on quality. Hoping that a good story, a good cast, and a good script would leave people feeling more entertained than a series of car
Kurt Russell and Kelly McGillis star in "Winter People." crashes strung together with celebrity cameos. "Winter People" achieves something great in that it
allows us to get wrapped up in other people's problems enough to lay aside some of our own temporarily.

Championship hopes high for swimmers

Comet swimmer Brian Henderson treads water in a recent meet against Grossmont on April 14.
By Mike Previte Sports Writer With only one meet remaining in the season, Palomar's men's swimming team has a 4-2 record within the Orange Empire Conference. Currently, the Comets are riding a three-match winning streak with victories over Riverside, Cypress and, most recently, Grossmont. Right now, with just the seasonending meet left against Saddleback, the Comets and Head Coach Greg Ormsby are beginning to look forward to the conference championships. Ormsby expects two or three of his swimmers to qualify for the conference championships, including sophomore Jeff Ross, the defending state champion in the 1650 meter freestyle.
Ormsby also expects good things out of his divers, not only for the conference championships, but also the state championships. "We have the possibility of placing two divers in the state meet." For Ormsby, his diving team has been a pleasant surprise. "Our divers have exceeded our expectations." Three of the standout divers for the Comets are freshmen Chris Ronalds, Lee Florian and John Neville. "These are three great divers for the community college level," said Ormsby. "They should be back next year for us also." Even though Ormsby expected the swim team to do a little better, he is optimistic while trying to instill a positive attitude in the team

Comets ready for playoffs By Scott King Sports Editor With the regional playoffs just around the comer, Bob Vetter's Comet baseball team has picked the right part of the season to peak. The defending Pacific Coast Conference champions have won five of their last six games, and with only six games remaining, look like a strong bet to repeat. Solid pitching and timely hitting have been keys for the Comets success. Starting pitchers Mark Ringkarnp, Derek Struhar, and Mark Mata have all come up with impressive performances in key ball games.
On April 6, Ringkamp delivered a gem against rival MiraCosta.and was supported with a flurry of offensive support as the Comets won 15-4. Two days later, Struhar was not to be outdone. With more offensive production from Clint Cruz and Billy Dunkel San Diego City fell94. Ringkamp picked up his second straight win as the offense continued to roll with a 12-2 thrashing of Imperial Valley. Mata dropped an 8-4 decision at home against Southwestern before Ringkamp collected his third straight win at the expense of San
Diego Mesa, 6-3. Entering Tuesday's game against Grossmont, the Comets trailed the Griffins by a game. Struhar carne through with the win and Mata picked up the save as Palomar was victorious 6-5. With six games remaining and the Comets tied with Grossmont for the conference lead,Vetter knows the importance of the schedule's stretch run. "All six of these games are important. I have a feeling it will boil down to the last game," said Vetter. "We've gotta win all six as far as I'm concerened." The Comets travel to MiraCosta tomorrow for a game at 1:00 p.m.
The most important question you can ask about any college is :
"Do Its Graduates Succeed?" At Coleman College - the computer college 90% of the graduates go to work in the computer field. Energetic staff members are working to assist graduates in finding a job.
