CHRISTIAN FELLOWSffiP The Christian Fellowship Club met at their regular gathering Wednesday to hear Jim McNutt, a missionary with fifteen year's experience in Brazil. After comparing opportunities for evangelism in Latin America with those on American campuses, the missionary speaker suggested five reasons why members of the group are not taking advantage of a highly favorable situation.

McNutt, a student at Palomar this year, said that his remarks were off the record and refused to be quoted.

Two of a kind, or almost, the guitar and bass added much to the students' performance.

1HE EDITOR AND THE NEWS

by CRISTA "If the dance comm tttee thinks they can charge $3.50 to get into the Christmas Formal, they're going to be the only ones there.

I'm not going. u "Every year it gets higher.

What's their excuse this time?

Are the committee chairmen going to pocket 50¢ a couple, to finance their little party afterwards?•• "Oh, no, you know what it really is.

This year we're cosponsoring the dance with Mira Costa, and when you do that you have to charge twice the normal admission so that both schools make a profit. You know, the spirit of Christmas. " It's true, the dance committee is going to pocket 50¢ from each bid, and they hope to sell at least 200, but it won't be burningholes in student's pockets because this portion of the bids is being given to the Vista Retarded Children's School in the form of a Christmas check.

This de cision was reached at one of the joint meetings of Palomar and MiraCosta dance committees. At first, they wanted to sponsor a charity benefit that would provide funds to orphans in Tijuana, then it was the Indians in Arizona, but finally. they decided that the money would be best spent right here, in our own area.

The Vista school has a capacity for 24 students and is now training 15 between the ages of 3 and 8 and two, ages 18 and 46. Students that attend the school ,4axe an IQ of 50 or less and are ineligible to attend public schools .

There is another school for retarded children in Vista, but stud-

GILLETTE ents must be 8 years of age. Most of the children who leave the Vista Retarded Children's School, go on to either a public school or graduate to the Severely Mentally Retarded Clinic in Vista.

The school building is one room, divided into two parts. Here, the children are given training in coordination, speech, dressing, personal care, and any other necessary areas of attention.

They attend school from 9:00 to 1:00 but no transportation is provided.

Fees are $20.00 a month for the children, for a four-day week, and $10.00 for the two older students who come only twice a week.

Mrs . Betty Simms, instructor, said however, that exceptions are made for those from families who are not able to pay.

There are three instructors at the school now, -they are a director, an instructor and an aide .

Their pay ranges from $300.00 to $121 . 00 per month, a rather low wage on the professional scale.

According to these people, the landscaping and outside facilities. are the greatest need right now.

Any money, whatever the amount, will be greatly appreciated by the people at the Vista Retarded Children's School, and will be put tp the best possible use .

It is unlikely that anything like the above conversation will be the above conversation will h heard at Palomar.

An extra 50¢ really isn't much to give j Qr .ti<(kets to the Chri&tmas Formal. and a part in making Christ· mas for these children a''Bttle'" happier.

Last week we discussed the recent re-distribution of voting power on the Executive Council. One third of the voting power is appointed membership.

Today, let us consider student government by comparing the system before th recent change to the Council as it now exists. In doing so, we must narrow our investigation to the particular areas which have been influenced by the change . These are the interests of the newly enfranchised council voters, i.e., the judiciary, the campus newspaper, the publicity oommittee, the awards committee, the social chairman, and the athletic commissioner.

The most obvious and irrefutable result of the new government is that the Council has seen better attendance and more interest by its committee chairmen and the editor of the newspaper. The various chairmen are voting members now and have a responsibility to every issue that faces the Council . They are no longer limited to merely reading their own reports to the . Executive body. In the past they did not even have the power to move the acceptance of their reports. Now, they are an influential part of the Council in every decision. As a result, there is more overall interest and coordination between the Council and its standing committees .

Still another advantage of the present system is the quality of the Council as a result of presidential appointments. Unless students can be continually associated with the nominees and can realize the candidates' governmental capabilities to the full extent, they cannot have the insight and discretion that is necessary in choosing representatives . The president, on the other hand, is one who has had a direct interest in student government . He has past experience to support him in his appointments. By being aware of who the qualified students are, the president facilitates good government .

Hence, the activities of the Council this semester show the increased interest and participation. By permitting the president to appoint some Council voters (maintaining , of course, the balance of popularly elected representatives), the efficiency and the capabilities of the executive council have been greatly increased.

kept for something "rare and strange" and wonders whEther whatever will happen will be wonderful or gerrible. This knowledge shared is a continuous bond between John and May throughout the years. John wishes to share "the thing that may spring'' with May; that she should see it also. And May, sensing this need, lives with it until it does become her life. Together they await this "beast" until the tragic incident which has been building up occurs.

Finally John sees what rare thing he was kept for.

Henry James was often struck by an , idea for a novel at the. spur of a, moment.

On this idea he will elaborate in his works until there is seemingly no facet of his idea left--there is a ':stretching'' of the one idea. But the essence of his characters, John and May, is neglected .

They aren't entirely humanized but they carry the burden of THE BEAST IN THE JUNGLE,

Mot~roQ ~PORT~ I

Despite finishing fifth place in the Pacific Southwest Conference this year, the Palomar College Comets had one of the best defenses in the league. Seven teams combined to score only 79 points against both Palomar and San Diego City College, the loop champions. In all games, only 99 points were scored against the Comets in nine games. Mesa College led the conference in that department, surrendering only 94 points.

San Diego City College hasn't lost a conference football game in the two years of existance of the Pacific Southwest Conference.

This year they were followed by Mesa (5-2) Grossmont and MiraCosta (4-3), Palomar (34), Southwestern and Imperial Valley (2-5), and College of the Desert (1-6).

The College of the Desert squad won their first conference game Saturday from a forfeit. Playing Southwestern in Palm Desert, with only about two minutes remaining in the game, the officials postponed the game anml awarded the Roadrunners a 1-0 victory. The Apaches were ahead at the time, 14-6. The game was called because of a continuance of unnecessary roughness and after a warning was issued to both sqqads.

Coach Cece McGehee and his crewcut charges ended the '65 grid seasonon a sorrowful note Saturday night by dropping a 7-6 decision to the Grossmont Griffins. The loss turned the remnants of a good season into a mediocre one, and opened an old wound for the Comets who were beaten the previous week by an identical score.

There was an air of familiarity about the game--an obvious lack of scoring punch. Defensively, however, Palomar played a great game. The Comets allowed the Griffins only one touchdown. The previous week Grossmont scored three times on San Diego City, and nearly handed the conference champs their only defeat in league play.

Grossmont was the first to break the defensive battle on the field with a tally in the second quarter. Fullback Paul Daniels crashed over from the five yard line. The conversion attempt was good, and the Griffins maintained their shutout until the third quarter.

Palomar's lone touchdown came on a pass from Jerry Montiel to Halfback Dan Starr. Starr took the aerial behind the line of scrimmage and raced 52 yards f{)r the score. The Comets questionably elected to try for a two point conversion, but Montiel's pass was deflected. The unfortunate break cost Palomar the lead and the game. Apparently tha Comets didn't want to settle for a tie so late in the season. The pass was Montiel's 11th scoring strike of the year.

Qrossmont outgained the locals 2-1 on the ground, with Palomar picking up only 83 yards via the turf. Dave Johnston

accounted for most of this yardage, gathering 59 yards in 11 carries. Montiel and Starr each lugged the pigskin seven times and collected 14 yards apiece.

Montiel completed 12 of 31 passes for 123 yards. Bill Jaroncyk caught three for 41 yards and bill Beckett took two for 25. Comet defense allowed only 44 yards passing, and intercepted two of Gary Mattison's passes.

Jaroncyk did an outstanding jobagainst the converence leading receiver, Dave Nuttall, in limiting the 170 pound end to only one reception. Doug Redfern, Norm Johnston, Ken Sadler, Walt Ridlon, Dave Laughter, and Jim Frank turned in their usual fine performances, and the whole defensive platoon registered another classic effort. Unfortunately the offense couldn't compliment their fine showing.

A student with a grade point average of a B on his tests, may present alecture to the class or prep~re a research paper. Both the lecture and research paper must be approved by Kremer and relate to the western civilization discussions.

This program gives students an opportunity to conduct classes. Many of those who take part in this program are education majors. This will give them a valuable experience in how to conduct classes.

In preparing . a research paper, a person can investigate something in which he is interested. If he intends to go on to upper division this will provide experience in preparing papers which four-year colleges require.

Vietnamese lizards gift to biology instructor

By PENNY HILL FUNNY THING HAPPENED IN THE Sgt. Burman reported that the lizards is interested in this as an avocation.

POST OFFICE ONE DAY. . . . live in deep holes in sand dunes 200 to HETERODONT TEETH Contrary to most lizards, the Leiolepis That's just about how Dennis Bostic, 500 meters from the beach. Although biology instructoro,. reacted when he re- much of Viet Nam is tropical, the area have a heterodont tooth condition--canceived ten live Leiolepis belliana lizards has only sparse vegetation, mostly salt ines, incisors, and molars. Mostlizards through the u. ::;, mail service from pines, some cacti, and some succulents have a homodont condition, uniform teeth.

VietNam. Sand Crabs, similar to the rock crabs of The lizards , say the natives, are strictly The lizards were captured by Sgt. California, are a food source, as well monagomous; they live in one burough E. L. Burman at Chu Lai, where fiercf as insects and soft vegetation. Sgt. all their lives with one mate.

Since the li zards are .<\sian, there ar hand to hand combat has broken out Burman gave more information about Sgt. Burman is with Company "C" ot the lizards all of which Bostic regarded no accounts of them in popular books . the 3rd Marines and has acquired the . accurate, detailed and informative. Sgt. In order to key them, Bostic had to send title of the "Mad Doctor" as a result of Burman has had no formal training but away .for resource books and finally his interest in herpetology. Sgt. Burman's lizard collecting will be curtailed for a Leiolepis belliana: This is one of the ten live specimens while because he was recently oounded that were sent to Dennis Bostic from in the leg during active combat at Chu Lai. VietNam. J::Sostic contacted Sgt. Burman through Mrs. Burman who happened to be in the office of a Vista veternarian the same time Bostic was. Mrs. Burman remarked about the lizard Bostic had just operated on and soon he discovered that Sgt. Burman had similar inte rests in lizards. The two started corresponding, ultimately resulting with the shipping of the lizards. Sgt. Burman intends to capture and send specimens of geckos. nocturnal lizards, and lacertid lizards-large,red and blue spotted reptiles.

AIR FLIGHT Sgt. Burman had much difficulty in getting the lizards through the mails but finally he succeeded and they were flown from Viet Nam to San Francisco, then to San Diego, and then delive r ed to Palomar. The biggest danger in s hipping was the temperature factor. Because the lizards are cold blooded, excessive heat would have killed the m ; they have no way of regulating their body temperature.

BEHAVIOR EXPERIMENTS Currently Bostic and some of his students are carrying on behavior experiments with the lizards. They have built an enclosed unit, provided sand and heat lamps, and feed . the lizards with net sweepings from the grass.

The students have clipped the lizards' toes for ide ntification and will soon paint numerals on them. They have weighed and sexed the lizards also. Now they will observe the territor ial, mating, and fighting habits .

FLATTEN BODIES The male Leiolepis has been observed to flatten its body so that its s ide stripes become more conspicuious when it is roughly handled. Apparently the female's ribs are not as mobile as the males.

Research is now being done in the lizards' bone structure to determine whether thee is any sexual differentiation with relation to the ribs.

SKELETAL WORK Scott Drieschman is doing skeletal work on the reptiles. He skins some, removes the viscera and puts them in Bostic's "bug box" where insects eat away the excess meat from the skeleton.

Dreischman then soaks and treats the skeleton. He will be working with Dr. Ethridge, a pae lentologist at San Diego s tate College who is interested in osteology.

John Simons, another of Bostids students, was interested in parasites, and out of curiosity counted the parasites in the digestive track a nd discovered 410 nematodes (round worms.)
