Cooperation Marks Projects Done On 'Work Day' Were those signs of relief or agony heard around the campus last Friday after the annual Workday drew to a close? No matter how much the strain in muscle power, the Knig hts must feel real proud about winning the coveted first prize plaque. Second, third, and fourth prizes we~e won by Circle K,
The Knights return to the campus after "reanimating" The Palomar "P" on the mountainside. This organization coped first place in the competitive "Workday"projects.
Dr. Frank Baxter Keynotes Student Government Meet Dr. Frank Baxter of USC delivered the opening address to the CJCSGA Conference after dinner on April 1 at the Del Coronado Hotel. Dr. Baxter challenged the 330young men and women to retain their individuality in this day of high social pressure. He stated "The best armor you can put on in this terrifying atom world is a bright mind sharpened to an edge through knowledge and a developed intelligence, and faith in the power of good." When Jim Fortenberry, one of the delegates, was asked his opinion of Dr. Mrs. Nesbin ¡o r the Baxter's address, he relibrary has reported that plied: "He is the finest she has the following speaker I have everheard, books which have just and I don 1 t believe a come in: single delegate missed a E~erimental College word."

They could be seen in the patio squeezing lemons and oranges for the refreshing juice. Toughest job of the day was trying to identify each Knight from the others after they had limed the Palomar "P"-and themselves. Among the limed were Ray Omori, Tom Lasswell, Jan Berlin, Noel Rozella, Yanal Hikmat, and J~hn Brode. Twelve dollars was added to the student body fund by students washing cars for fifty cents each.

Arv. You SaftZ To Bv. Kissv.d? by Jack Merget Are you safe to be kissed? Do you have proteus vulgaris (gasp)? These and many more questions will be answered by the Bacteriology Class this week as they peer through theirmicroscopes. The class's "guinea pig," Liz Mason, was tested and found to be sterile (free from bacteria) and perfectly safe to be kissed! Under the watchful eye of Mr. Eugene Stevens,the class is testing the effectiveness of mouthwash, toothpaste, antiseptic, and also the effect of several microorganism on sugar and protein extracts. 6ome of the students are growing culturestaken from -many assorted items: pond scum, drinking fountains, eat's fur, fire hydrants, flies; compost, and a spoon taken fromthe cafeteria lunch line. The spoon from the cafeteria was tested and found to be free from any form of microorganism, harmful or not. We should all be thankful that we have such a wonderful cafeteria staff constantly striving for a neat and clean cafeteria. Incidentally, the food isn 1 t bad either.

Accomplished Musicians Find Need For Other Knowledge A would-be musician must know more than just music to interest the listener to any great extent, according to Mr. Howard Brubeck, music instructor. "Music is usually regarded as a highly specialized field. With this I can readily agree," he stated, "but the specialization of which one speaks can be effective
only if it is built on a broad base. Music attempts to express in a language addressed primarily to the emotions those things which people feel. It is considered to be one of the ni ghest

HOWARD BRUBECK forms of humanexpression. Therefore, the job of every would-be musician is to attempt to understand humanity; to develop a sympathy for its strengths and weaknesses, its successes and failures; to know its social and economicinstituti ons, its sciences and arts." Mr. Brubeck made these statements when interviewed on the value of a college education to a student ma j oring inmusic. "The order is a big one," he added, "but today's musician is in for a life time of study. A college education is of inestimable value in s t. arting the process." Technical development being important in music, one mus t have a means of expressing himself. "But," Mr. Brubeck cautioned the future musician, "the person who knows only music is notin a position to convey very

Comets Split With MaraudtZrs Palooar came frorn behind in the last inning of the second game of a double-header with Antelope Valley to score three runs and win a thrilling 4-3 decision over the Marauders. The Cornets had dropped the first game of the April 2 twin bill by a 6-0 count. The win gives the Comets a 1-2 league record and keeps their thin title hopes alive. A line single to center field by Ed Mojado with two on and two out in the seventh inning gave pitcher GeorgeCordry the first Palomar win of the year. AntelopeValley scored three runs off Cordry in the firstinning o n two hits and three errors. All three runs we re unearned. He set t~e Marauders down on just three hits while walking one and striking out six. In the first tilt, Palomar starting pitcher, Monte Green, turned in a fine game giving up just ftve base hits and four earned runs. He walked ftve and fanned the same number. The Comets were unable to aid Green atthe plate as Marauder pitcher Jerry Osborne set them down on two hits while fanning 11. Up until the final inning of the second game it looked as though Palomar were to go crashing down to its third straight league loss, but Jim Estep led off with a single and advanced to second when Green reached first on an error. Cordry then beat out a · perfect bunt down the third base line to load the sacks with no outs. Bob Rivas then fanned but Karl Gotse flew out to right field scoring a run and advancing the runners. Mojado then poked the first pitch into center field scoring Green and Cordry with the tying and winning runs. Duane Beebe was the leading hitter of the day for Palomar banging out three base hits followed by Mojado's pair of safeties.
Places In its first league track meet March 31 the Palomar Comets came in second best in the triangular affair. Oceanside won the meet by amassing 93 points to the Comets 60 and Palo Verde's 48. The scores, however, are based on a dual system giving the Comets a 71 1/3 to 47 2/3 victory over Palo Verde and a 80 1/3 to 41 2/3 loss to Oceanside. Outstanding performances turned in by Comet runners were Tom Galt ln the hurdles; Al Kish in the 880; John Troutman in the shot put and tho discus; Bill Bucher in the 440; and Rudy Akin in the shot put, pole vault, and hurdles.

Hats off to track coach Bob Bowman who, against all sorts of odds, gathered up a traclc team and rnade a fine showing in the first league track meet of the year. Palomar didn't win the meet against Oceanside andPalo Verde, but we came in second and made a strong showing. In the last issue of the paper this column took a blast at a few fine track men who were not working out. In the meet, however, they came tr~ough in great style. The team would still be stronger though if workot:ts were taken more seriously. John Troutman, Tom Galt, Rudy Akin, Al Kish, Al Donahue, and Bill Bucher are just a few names to watch in coming Comet track meets this year. All six turned in fine performances in the first meet and possess a great deal of ability. Coach Ward (Rusty) Myers' baseball team has taken its lumps but is showing gradual improvement and now seems ready for a top performance. The pitching has been a little spotty and the fielding about as leaky as a sieve in the first few games, but the squad has great potential and should be a big threat in all its remaining games. Tennis is in full swing and Coach Lynn Calland issues a call to allracket wielders to contact her at once. With the material at hand a top team is expected. Practice sessions are to take place daily on the courts out by the "gym." In a recent article in the Escondido paper a Mr. Sidney Doner points out that a gym is really of very little importance to a college of our size. I'm afraid he 1 ll have to prove that to the girls who don't have any locke"s at all or the athlet~s who have four "showers"

Personality This week's sports personality is Ed Mo Jado. Ed hails from the deep dark hills of Fallbrook where he attended Fallbrook High School. He lettered in varsity football, basketball, and baseball. In baseball he was named on the all-league team for three years straight. Ee was the player who paced Fallbrook to two league championships. Ed was also a standout in football, playing quarterback on the T formation. His dexterity with a football won him an all-league appointment during his senior year. Comet squad, Coach Bowman, moved Ed to tailback o• the single wing formation here at PJC. Ed never had played this position before, butafter a few days practice he handled it as if he had played tailback all his life. Although it is not commonly known,he was one of the best linebackerson the squad. At ~he present time Ed is leading the Cometbaseball squad with a tremendous batting average of .467. He has collected seven hits for 15 timesat bat. Ed is also a very capable fielder. He plays third base which is considered to be the hottest position on the diamond. Ed is going to be the chief relief pitcher this year. He will be counted on to pull more than one game out of the fire.
