The Telesco Instructor assaulted on campus Tuesday By Laura Woolfrey News Editor A Palomar instructor narrowly escaped her assailant after he sexually assaulted her Tuesday evening in front of the P-building. According to a campus patrol report, the victim, (who wishes to remain anonymous) walked at 6:38 p.m. from building NA-1 to the duplicating center in room F-6, to make copies for her class that evening. An unidentified man approached her from behind and squeezed her left breast with his right hand. He threatened her life saying, 'Don't move or I'll (expletive) kill you.' The victim told Campus Patrol officers that she noticed a silhouette of a passer-by coming towards her, who apparently distracted the assailant. This provided an opportunity for the victim to escape. He (the pedestrian) could have saved her further harm," said Campus Patrol Supervisor Boyd Mahan. After the crime occured, the victim filed reports with Sheriff's deputies and Campus Patrol. "She was upset and shaken up," said Campus Patrol Officer Jessica Jardner. "She had tears rolling down her face once in a while. She
is a very strong person to report what happened so other people will be notified." Mahan said the teacher resumed class instruction after the incident. Although Mahan said he was shocked that the incident occured, he said he feels that the chances of the assault progressing to rape would have been slim. "I can't imagine he could have raped her at that time because of the location," said Mahan. The attacker is believed to be tall, but no details about his appearance are available at this point. However, Mahan said there is a witness; the person who disrupted the crime. Mahan said he wants the witness to give a statement to the authorities. "Come forward and tell us what you can so we can find the suspect," said Mahan also who said he encourages all students to get involved. "Keep your eyes open and be aware. Be willing to get involved to help other people," said Mahan. "The police are not in every place." If a good enough description is given, a composite drawing can be made, said Mahan. "It may be he's pulled this thing on other campuses."
Sexual activity linked to bathroom vandalism By Roman S. Koenig Editor-in-Chief Officials at Palomar College's Department of Facilities said Wednesday they are doing all they can to stop the recurring problem of "glory holes" in the men's restrooms. Nearly a year ago, Facilities workers confronted the same problem where holes were cut into the dividers between bathroom stalls and used for sexual purposes, according to school officials. Director of Facilities Mike Ellis said his department workers are trying to do all they can to solve the problem. "We first screwed IT\etal plates over the holes, then we welded metal plates over the holes and then we covered them over with wood," Ellis said. He added that Facilities workers had to replace entire partitions in some cases. Ellis said the replacement of stall partitions is a $700 proposition, where a set of partitions includes a new door as well. Custodial Supervisor Phil Morgan said the entire department is involved in the effort.to curb the vandalism. "This sort of vandalism that we've been having right now is a strange situation," Morgan said. The problem of "glory holes" is (see VANDALISM - page 3)
Student reps disagree over conference By Mark Wiberg Staff Writer Disagreement set the tone again at Wednesday's Associated Student Government meeting when the president asked for approval of a weekend conference trip to the state capital. Following the government's
approval of ASG President Erik Johnson's choice, Anthony Montroy, for treasure~ after two failed attempts, senators voted to allow three government members and the ASG secretary to visit Sacramento. Once there, the four will attend workshops and discuss issues concerning California community colleges.
Before approving the trip, concerns were raised over ASG secretary, Erica Miller, accompanying the three student representatives, Johnson and senators Lowell Kepics and Tom Turk. One of the problems was Johnson and Miller's personal (see TRIP - page 4)

most prevalent in the ES and LS building restrooms, he said, adding that the problem is spreading to the P building. Vandalism has decreased in the S building, however, according to Morgan. Ellis confirmed that the problem has spread to the remodeled Pnorth restrooms and said the problem is an inconvenience to both workers and students alike. "Except for the replacement of partitions, it's been more of alabor-intensive problem," Ellis said.
Within the last few weeks, signs have been posted in all campus restrooms stating that students should contact Campus Patrol if vandalism activity is observed. The signs state that if the vandalism continues, partition doors may be removed or the bathrooms will be locked up on weekends and after school hours. Ellis said the removal of the doors would help prevent the making of holes because of increased visibility. However, he said that there is a downside to this proposal. "It would also reduce students' privacy," he said. Restrooms are currently open

Ellis said the nearly year-long problem with this type of vandalism is really the only major concern in the restrooms. Graffiti is a common problem in both men's and women's restrooms, he said.

Laviolette said the chapter gave away $4,000 in scholarships to members of ICC clubs last year, and they hope to double that amount this year. AGS also contributes to a substantial number of student activities, Laviolette said. In addition to ·their involvement in the Halloween Escape held on Oct. 31, Alpha Nu responded to a request from the athletic department to organizethis year's Homecoming celebration. AGS has also been involved with the recent book sale and the blood drive. Alpha Nu is also involved in volunteer work within the community, such as collecting donations for migrant workers and tutoring elementary, junior high and high school students. Volunteering to tutoris one way for AGS members to complete their club requirements. Members must complete eight hours of volunteer service per semester in order to qualify for the club, according to Laviolette. In addition, members must pay dues of $12 per semester and maintain a 3.25 GP A. Although the club's membership has grown to II 0, Laviolette encouraged new members to join.

relationship. "The bottom line," Senator Lydia Zepeda said, "is that you (Johnson and Miller) are boyfriend and girlfriend and I know that's the problem. Nobody wants to say it or admit it." Johnson said Miller, as the government's secretary, is involved with ASG and the attempts to form a workshop that informs other colleges about the student representative fee. "She's not doing this to go up and have fun," Johnson said."She wants this workshop .. .! don't understand the thinking of this group (ASG)." Vice-president Paul Alexander said he agreed with Johnson. As president, Johnson is allowed to submit delegates to be approved by the ASG, but Adviser Jim Bowen said senators should consider that Miller is a paid staff member. "She is not elected," Bowen said. "She was hired as a staff employee." He added that paid employees have never been sent with student representatives to conferences in the past.

But you've got to know where to look for them. The Frederick and Mary Beckley Scholarship is for needy left-handed freshman entering Juniata college in Hunington, Pa. Senior ErikReedinger has received the $700 scholarship for four years. All he had to do , he says, was check a box on his application stating that he was left-handed. There are more than 300,000 academic and vocational scholarships worth over $28 billion- available if the U.S. However, more than $28 billion goes unused every year, according to a 1986 study. "The biggest problem is students don't know where to look for scholarships," says Kevin Root of Student Services, a San Diego-based organization that helps students find scholarships. "Every student," continues Kevin, "is eligible for some type of financial aid regardless of grades or parental income."

Thomas showed good judgeme_nt Today as we go about our daily routines, let us take a moment to thank the framers of the Constitution and the judiciary that upholds the Constitution. This document and these people bear the noble responsibility of protecting our right to free speech and the expression of our opinions. By the same token, as citizens we must bear the right of certain individuals to spew forth such pap as was written in The Telescope recently regarding the "tragic mistake" of Clarence Thomas' confmnation to Supreme Court. Just as C4u"ence Thomas had no responsibility to endure the circus to which he was subjected, these claims do not demand a response, but deserve one nevertheless. • To say that Thomas displayed unsound judgement because he did not listen to Anita Hill's testimony is ludicrous. The Senate Judiciary Committee did not inform him tl}at he was required to watch. What point would it serve for him to watch? He was familiar with her statement to the FBI and had categorically denied it-numerous times. If Anita Hill's statements would have remained consistent arid not have become increasingly detailed on three seperate occasions, there would have been nothing new in her testimony. Regardless, how could he have handled her testimony differently? If Thomas would have acknowledged the allegations and proceeded to fervently defend himself, many would have assumed that he was hiding something. If, on the other hand, he would have stepped down and withdrawn from the process, the verdict would be: "Guilty." Would it have been preferable that he address each charge independently? Would that have been sufficient? He himself admitted that had he said the things that she alleged, he should not sit on the bench. If he didn'tharass Anita Hill, he didn'tharass Anita Hill. Period. And if name-calling is what you want, tune in to Divorce Court. The comment that Judge Thomas is a bitter man incapable and unprepared to perform his duties is just ridiculous. Clarence Thomas is a weak man because he admits that there are more important things than the Supreme Court? Is this a weak man because he admits to not liking being hassled by the press? If anything, this makes him an honest man, and if honesty makes him weak, may the weak inherit the earth. When did Thomas say that he had no ambition· or enthusiasim left for the job? He was reffenng to the hearing, not the occupation. Is it so difficult to understand tlult this man, and let us not forget that he is a human being, doesn't enjoy his character, life and family dragged through the mud? Should he have touted the praises of a process that was cumbersome and invasive? Judge Thomas behaved with dignity and patience. Joshua Levezow

Keep Roddenberry's vision alive It isn't often that American society has the chance to experience the creativity and optimism of a great visionary like Gene Roddenberry. His death last week came as unfortunate news to the millions of people both herein the United States and around the world who shared his dream of a brighter future for everyone. Roddenberry's ability to better society through the use of story-telling ranks him high on the list with other science fiction visionaries of our time like Ray Bradbury and Dr. Isaac Asimov. A former airline pilot and Los Angeles police officer, Roddenberry came into his own right as one of the premier creative geniuses of the 20th century with "Star Trek." The series, set 300 years into the future, depicted people working in interracial harmony to better mankind through space travel. The series portrayed a time where medicine would be a right and not a priviledge - where modem medical wizardry and a compassionate bedside manner could cure a sickness or fix an injury with little fear or pain. In Roddenberry's future, computers were utilized by humans instead of the other way around. "Star Trek" came into its prime in reruns in the 1970s after it flopped in ratings in the late 1960s, followed by six movies and a new series set 80 years after Captain Kirk and the original crew. With the current popularity of"Star Trek: The Next Generation," Roddenberry's vision has finally found its rightful place as a modem-day legend- almost a cultural mythology of sorts. Many of the devices created in "Star Trek" have served as inspiration for medical instruments used today, such as neddleless shots and the utilization of laser technology. Through his television series and movies, Roddenberry also conveyed the necessity and importnace of utilizing technology for peaceful rather than destructive uses , as shown very poiniently in many "Star Trek" episodes. Roddenberry's beliefthathumans could overcome their

Point of View RomanS. Koenig often savage and destructive behaviors and replace them with compassion, understanding and kindness has always been an underlying theme throughout "Star Trek's" history, and the millions of fans, or "trekkers," have sought to keep that belief alive. One thing that must be made certain, however, is that Roddenberry's visions don't die with him. There is no doubt that the many past and future "Star Trek" episodes will serve as a reminder of the optimistic beliefs he held. There is a difference, though, between being reminded of them and actually learning from them and practicing what has been learned. The far -out technology of his creations may not exist yet, but the ability for people to change their way of thinking does. That is why it is important that people bring out in themselves those qualities that make this world a more peaceful place to live, whether it be through work, volunteering or education. It is up to all people, not just "Trek" fans, to keep the dream of a better future alive by creating the ground work for it today. Without doing this, the work of Roddenberry, along with that of his predecessors and future counterparts, will be for nothing.

America.still great after hearings United States along with the rest of the world. watched the confinnation hearings of Clarence Thomas. During and after the testimony, some said these hearing brought the United States to a new low and that they were "embarrassed" or "ashamed" of being Americans. How can anyone be ashamed or feel embarrassed of being Americans? At least our country has a Supreme Court to fight over. How many countries have elected officials that can confirm or deny a leader's choice for a Supreme Court judge? Sure, the world hasn't exactly been witness to America's finest moment, but it has witnessed all that the U.S. has done for them. Despite its economic, social and political problems, the U.S. constantly comes to the aid of others. Earlier this year our role in freeing Kuwait was immediately followed by a military relief effort for survivors of a devastating flood in Bangledesh. Are these things to be ashamed of? Certainly not While others are ashamed of the U.S., many are trying hard to live here and become citizens. Last month, The Telescope ran an article on a Palomar student who went on a hunger strike in an effort to obtain political asylum in the United States. He fled his country, Bangledesh, because he belonged to the opposition party to the ruling government and he feared for his personal safety. This example, and other similar stories, show appreciation for America, not embarrassment. If someone is truly embarrassed to be an American after watching the Thomas hearings, than perhaps they should leave to a country that has no Supreme Court. elected president, or freedom. I believe Cuba or Iraq have plenty of room. Mark Wiberg Staff Writer

ASG need s st ereo
Last week's news article about the Associated Student Govemment spending money to purchase a receiver and two speakers was very interesting. Considering that I am a senator on the ASG, I feel that further clarification is needed. At first, I was opposed to the idea of spending so much money on a system. However, after visiting several different stores, I realized what a quailty system, which would last for more than a couple of years, was going to cost. MostoftheASGsenatorsspendcountlesshoursworking on projects and laws which affect the students of Palomar, and over the years the ASG has, in my opinion, lacked closeness with the student body. The purchasing of a stereo was the first step towards a united campus. The ASG strongly supports our School's radio station,KKSM, and we felt it was appropriate to have the school's music in our cramped office; just like we support The Telescope by reading it. Anthony Montroy ASG Senator Editor's note: The cost of the stereo, which did not appear in last week's news story, was am'Jro.rim:atelv

Israel hero of Mideast summit As the Mideast conference in Spain unfurls a banner of hope for peace, that persistent feeling of futility begins to bum it away. These talks involve more than people getting together and agreeing to love each other. This process concerns the security of· Israel, a-country that has been threatened with extinction several times since its creation in 1948. Israel has fought several wars of exhistence with its neighbors, the most significant being in 1967. This was the Six Day War in which Jordan, Egypt and Syria took on a very small but determined Israel. The besieged country surprised the world by taking on the attackers one by one and beating them. Then, as a form of retribution, Israel took over "buffer zones" from the hostile countries in order to protect themselves from future attacks. It-was at this time the Palestinians, who had been hostile to Jewish immigration from the beginning, began their guerilla war. Since then, thousands of innocents have been killed by the terrorist Palestinian Liberation Organization under the guidence of Y assir Arrafat. Americans and Europeans have also been targeted by this group over the years in order to scare us into putting pressure on Israel. The world witnessed several deeds of "heroism" on the part of the PLO through the 70 .> and early 80 s such as the slaughter of13 athletes at the 1972 Munich Olympic Games. Only a few months ago, a rash of killings took place in which Palestinian men ran around screaming "God is great" before stabbing to death Israeli women and children at bus stops and on the sidewalks. Understandably, Israel refuses to negotiate with this
The Right. Side Hank Tritchka orginazation that operates on terror and cowardice. If this organization truly represents a "people" then that population is in some serious trouble. The real hero of this summit is Israel. Like in the Persian Gulf War, Israel is taking blows while remaining calm. Everyone admired the reserve displayed by Israel in the recent war when Iraqi missles hit the country but failed to stir a reaction. Now, even as every one sits at the negotiating table, Palestinians have killed a Jewish woman riding on a bus and three Israeli soldiers in Beirut. Also, Islamic extremists have killed an American soldier in Turkey. It would seem as though the PLO, while supposedly supporting the peace talks, is trying to provoke the Israelies into withdrawing. No, the real peace in Israel will come when Palestinians fmally accept Jews as countrymen and learn to work in the free market system being offered.
World has seen improvement before Palomar's bus stop The idea of a transit center makes sense. With more than 13,000 students attending classes at the main campus, it didn't take the County of San Diego much planning to come up with this. In the best of all scenarios, a good number of students would take the bus to school, thus alleviating a growing parking problem at Palomar, and possibly helping the environment, as a bonus. But the project began in 1985. This six-year wait is making the project appear like a black hole of excuses. It's a clash of the "have's" and "have not's;" those with cars telling those without to be patient; the transit center is around the bend. The "have's" appear to have ignored the past six years. By the time the project was initiated, an incoming freshman would have graduated from Palomar, gone to a four-year university, graduate and (by now) be working on a master's degree. America has had two presidents, several scandals, three wars, three Supreme Court justices nominated- and still no transit center. Who could have believed that the Minnesota Twins would have won two World Series in that span? The Berlin Wall has fallen since, but Palomar is without an intelligent solution to its parking problem. To further aggravate the situation, using mass transit to Palomar is a habit best left for daredevils. With all the road construction around the bus stops, people taking the east-
ward bus t.O Palomar have to be nimble of foot and brave of
heart Why is the courage and nimbleness needed? There are only two ways to classes from the bus stop: through traffic or at the crosswalk, through the construction trenches. Through traffic, cutting across Mission Road, is the most direct way to class. Although this risks life and limb, this route is a better day-to-day than the legal route - which goes through the cross walk, around the trenches and through the construction wne. The physically challenged have no other recourse; they must take the long way around, but this is still a hardship because of the steep incline around the trenches. There are solutions for this problem. By setting up traffic lights, an intersection and bus stops at the Comet Circle entrance, two problems can be solved: the morning jam at the entrance and safe passageway for bus riders. At the very least, Palomar College should provide some assistance to those who need it crossing Mission Road. The Transit Center will eventually be reality at Palomar. But the constant delays undermine the credibility of the planners, the County of San Diego. Temporary solutions can be tried (like those above), but until the center is here Palomar can do one of two things: build parking garages to the sky or brace for the worst Salvador Marquez Staff Writer

WSTORIOAL HOUSE REVIVES SAN MAROOS PAST A museum in San Marcos harbors relics of the city's history By Sara Skol Staff Writer San Marcos history has been brought to life in an old ranch house that exhibits relics from the city's little known past The house was built in 1951 and later donated to the San Marcos Historical Society for use as a museum. Tillie Vanoni, the museum's guide,winds up a 1919 Edison victrola and the Frenetic strains of "Valencia" transports the room back to an earlier era "In 1956 when we moved here, San Marcos Boulevard used to be lined with egg ranches," Vanoni said. "The area was mainly dairies and chicken farms." She also noted that San Marcos Boulevard used to be called Encinitas Boulevard, but confusion with the Encinitas Boulevard in Encinitas caused the change of name. Because San Marcos used to be rural the museum has a number of rural artifacts. Vanoni pointed out a vertical chicken scale which is a sharp hook, to hang the chicken by its feet. Another farm relic was a calf weaner. It consises of five spikes and a clamp that when attached form a semi-circle of spikes on the calfs nose. When the calf tried to nurse, the spikes jabbed the cow who, consequently, kept the calf at a distance. Vanoni recollects when "the downtown area of San Marcos was at Pico and Mission Road. That was where the church, doctor and grocery store were located." She also remembers when the Telodyne building used to be a silk mill. "There were Mulberry trees in the back." She went on to say that Lee Fulton, a San Marcos resident who gives group talks on the silk factory, claimed that "the silk-

Vanoni explained that the demise of the silk mill wasduetothe introduction of nylon. Mulberry Street in town is a reminder of the silk mill's past existence. Indian artifacts are also on display. Beads, arrowheads and manos and metates (stones used for grinding food) depict the life style of the earliest residents or"the San Marcos valleys. According to the museum, Indians have lived in the valley for 10,000 years. The Spaniards arrived in 1769 and called the natives Luisei'ios in honor of the Spanish king, Luis. The Luisei'ios lived in small bands,
camping by streams and springs. They gathered seeds, berries and acorns and hunted deer, rabbits, wood rats and squirrels. Each fall the Luisei'ios went up to Palomar Mountain to harvest Black Oak acorns which were a staple. Many of the Indian's artifacts have been found in the San Marcos area Moving around the former Mattson ranch house, Vanoni pointed out antiques donated to the Historical Society Museum by residents of San Marcos. A glass case held a pocket watch with a thennometerwhich was made in London and carried by John Rogers of San Marcos.
Vanoni pointed to the mercury on the watch face and then explained that "the back of the watch case opens up and you wind the watch from the back." Next to the pocket watch was astereotypeviewerwhich. Vanoni said, gave special slides a 3-D effect. Nearby was a sterling silver pencil and pocket thennometer set Vanoni remembered using a curling iron like the one in the case. "We heated it over the gas flames on the stove and curled it around our hair. We had a lot of burned, frizzy curls," she said. Against the wall sits a 1898 classic Kimbal Reed organ.
The trip back in time ended when, Tillie ' s husband Tony Vanoni introduced himself. He proceeded to wind the "old school clock" (which had a red hand to point to the day of the week) and brought San Marcos back to the present The museum is run by the San Marcos Historical Society and l<r cated at 105 Richmar Ave. It is open on Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday from 1 p.m. to 4 p.m. Staff Writer Sean Fitting also contributed to this article

Chinese Lucky Lion Dancers and two strolling musicians kicked off the start of The First California State University, San Marcos International Festival on Oct. 27. The festival, entitled "Our Global Village," was a great success according to Carol Bonomo, a staffmember in CSUSM's president's office and member of the festival committee. "Since this was the first one we just didn't know what to expect, but it has worked out great," said Bonomo. Approximately 4,000 people attended the festival which was held on the CSUSM temporary campus and featured entertainment, crafts and food from 25 cultures. Dr. Don Funes, a member of the Fine Arts Faculty at CSUSM and the festival chairperson, said the festival took 11 months to plan. Several outside businesses provided many of the food and crafts booths. The event was funded by Itoman & Company, Ltd., a Japanese specialty trading company. Itoman & Company provided a $500,000 endowment to the college to put on the festival . for the next I 0 years. According to Funes the purpose of the festival is to promote the college and to provide exposure for the community. "The festival serves as a source of education that goes beyond the walls of the classrooms," said Bonomo. Funes said that the festival serves as a way to acknowledge the multi-cultural structure of the community which surrounds the college. "I wanted the community to recognize that we're committed to all groups of people," said Funes.

Daza promises, Comets deliver lt:S my Opinion Patrick Gifford
To the victor go the spoiled For the Minnesota Twins who last Sunday night finished their Cinderella season by winning the World Series, the clock has struck midnight. Actually, the carriage that the Twins rode on their wondrous journey from last place losers, to the top of the baseball world did not turn into a pumpkin until Monday morning. That is how long it took for the Twins to realize that the dream was over. That was how long it took for their two nasty stepsisters (Free and Agency) to wake them up to reality. And that is exactly how long it took for their wicked step-mother (Jack Morris) to shove a broom at them and say, "Cinderella! Cinderella! (Minnesota! Minnesota!) You better get busy and clean up this,(contract) mess that I have made." That's right sports fans, before the last celebration party had ended, before the first champagne induced hangover had even started, that greedy ,jealous step-mother has cracked the glass slipper that the Twins handsome prince (their devoted fans) had hoped to see them wear happily ever after. But alas, this is not a fairy tale, nor does it have a happy ending. This is baseball. This is a place where the only thing that seems make-believe is the players' salaries. Where the evil dragon is a man who is paid $3.65 million a year, yet feels he is being shortchanged. Baseball is, as we are constantly told by the players, a business. Which brings us to Jack Morris. Morris, who on Sunday night was everybody's hero showed no class in waiting just 12 hours to inform the Twins that he was going to become a free agent. So much for savoring the sweet taste of victory, or reflecting upon an incredible journey that started in April with no one expecting anything more than another last place finish. And ended in October with history being made. No, Jack Morris was not going to have any ofthis sentimental "we did the impossible," rah-rah garbage. And although he had until November 11 to say he was going to become a free agent, he was not going to allow the management, his teammates, and the fans to bask in the glory for even a day. Jack Morris is scheduled to make $3.65 million next season, but by using the free agent system he will attempt to get a contract that will pay him more than $5 million. In order to get it he must have felt he had to strike while the iron was hot. And who cares if things like tradition, decency, respect, and feelings get burned in the process? To us it's still a game, and to him it's a business. I guess that's why it',s called "hard-ball."
Comets Home Games Wednesday---Men's Soccer-S.D. Mesa-3:15p.m.
By Sean Dean Sports Writer The men's soccer team at Palomar, was a team on a mission last Wednesday in their game against Imperial Valley College. Their mission was to win. Mission accomplished. The Comets blasted Imperial Valley 6-1, to take their first conference victory of the season. "It's a win and we'll take it," said head coach Ron Riccitelli. The win improved the team's record to 6-9-2 overall, 16-1 in conference. The attitude on the team was a different one from weeks past. It was an attitude of determination and eagerness to make big plays.
'I guaranteed them that we would win and we did.'
James Daza, Comets star fullback The reason for this big change was the return of star player and sweeper James Daza from injury. Daza had strained ligament~ in his knee early in the season at the Mira Costa Tournament. So with Daza (with a knee brace) in the game, the team was able to settle in and take control. "The team played with intensity withDaza in the line-up", said forward Bobby O'Neill. Whilemidfielder Eric Bowman added, "With Daza playing, it put some spunk back into us."
--Saul Rivera/Staff Photographer
James Daza, hurt earlier this year, returned to spark Wednesday's 6-1 victory. As for Daza, all he did was promise a win. "I guaranteed them that we would win and we did," said Daza. The offensive player of the game for the Comets was forward Barlis Sarsilmaz. All he did was come with his best performance of the season, scoring three goals for the hat trick. Sarsilmaz would have had four goals, but one was called back 011 a late offsides call. "Baris had a great game, he played phenomenal," added Daza. Palomar's other offensive stars were Mt. Carmel alum Bobby O'Neill who scored two goals and an assist. Fellow Sundevil Eric Bowman who made a great maneuver on a I.V.C defender to find an open shot and midfielder Ken Daum, who assisted Sarsilmaz on his first goal. Defense was another big key to the tri-
umph. Goalkeeper Tim Blattler had a great game, stopping everything that came at him. The only goal that I.V.C was able to score came off a deflection ofDaza after a penalty shot late in the game. The Comets take their winning ways on the road today in a big conference game against the San Diego Mesa College Olympians, game time 3:15p.m.

It was a cold breezy day on the campus soccer field last Tuesday. As the Palomar College women's soccer team took on their archrivals from up north, the Orange Coast College Pirates. The battle on the field that day was for more than just pride or bragging rights. As the Comets fought tooth and nail to squeeze 路 past the Pirates 3-2 and take a big step towards clinching the Orange Empire Conference. The Comets, who are ranked second in the state, are now 7-0-1 in the conference, 11-1- 路 2 overall. Palomar holds a four-point lead over Mt. SAC and a five-point lead over Orange Coast with just four matches left to play before the state playoffs begin. Palomar was led once again by Allison Gibson, the state's leading scorer. Gibson, who now has 20 goals and 11 assists on the season scored two of them in victory over the Pirates. Gibson's second goal of the game ended up being most the important, as it came in latter stages of the match up and was the blow that broke Orange Coast's back. Stephanie Case's penalty-kick goal in second half was another big play as it put the momentum in the Comets favor. Case was
路 The Comets got outstanding play on defense from goalies Ann Baird and Allison Shannon, who came up the big saves when they were needed. "We can't do it without our keepers," said Gibson. To add to the great defensive play, fullback Karmyn Clark was relentless throughout the game in stopping the Pirates offensive attack. "This team should not Jose to any of the teams we have left to play," said Coach Sosa. "We have the talent, strength, depth and toughness to be champions of California," Palomar will be looking to clinch the conference title today, as they take to the road against Irvine Valley College, game time is 2:30 p.m

The Comets lost in four tough games 4-15, 15-2, 15-8, 15-12. Palomar (7-3) started off quickly in the first game due to Grossmont' s many hitting errors. But Grossmont reduced its errors, winning three straight games. Stacee Alexander once again led Palomar with 15 kills and four blocks. Katie Senk also contributed with 11 kills. Palomar is on the road today against San Diego City.
