Building Destroyed In Blaze By Jim Azevedo It was ·a few minutes after 11
p.m., and night students had nearly all left for home after their classes. Dr. Stephen E. Epler, president, was just beginning to watch the news when a call summoned him to the campus where what would become a three-alarm fire was threatening to destroy his college. Th e fir e wa s first reported by the Inight custodian. who with 't he aid of several off-duty policemen who were still on the campus after their night classes, held back the alreadygathering crowds until Fremont police and fire department units could arrive. Firemen 's early efforts to stem the blaze were delayed when they tried to use the fire hydrants on the campus and found they were only putting out about 10 lbs. water pressure. This necessitated laying hose down to hydrants on Washington Ave. , and according to fire department spokesman Captain Don Masters, over 9,000 feet of hose had to be used , the shortest "lay" being 1,500 feet. Dr. Epler was called to the scene by Wes Sears,- _chairman of the Board · of Trustees. As soon as he. was informed of the blaze he called Dr. James Duke, vice president, who informed the rest of the board members and the Dominican Sisters from whom the property is being leased. The former custodian of the property, before it was taken over by the Fremont-Newark Junior College District, said that the sisters were "quite shaken by the news," as many of them had taught classes in t1'e section of the old building that was burned. When Allen Frawley, business manager, arrived on the scene, he found the business buildfng, which his staff had only recently moved into, on fire . With the help of several faculty members and some students, he went into the building and removed the files, typewriters and accounting machine, and stored
them in the E building. The fire in the business office building was brought under control a short time later, and the only actual .damage to the offices was restricted to some broken glass and water damage on the side nearest to the old Serra Center buildings. Tqe fire , according to Captain Masters, drew calls from as far away as Los Gatos, and was reported by people who saw its glow all the way to that area. Police on the scene said that many people, including three members of the Berkeley Barb newspaper staff, saw the glow from the Nimitz Freeway, and came up to see what was burning. Police stated however, that one of the staff members said it wasn't "their type of story.'' Dr. Epler's response, after he found that the blaze would be restricted to the old buildings which were not in use and would not threaten classrooms, was one of relief. "It reminded me of another disaster which completely destroyed the school at which I was resident administrator almost exactly twenty years ago to the day," Epler stated. This was the Columbia River flood which, on Memorial Day, 1948, wiped out Vanport College in Oregon. Captain Masters said 50 men and nine pieces of equipment responded to the three alarms and one special personnel call, and that the Newark Fire Department sent one unit to stand by at a Fremont station. Both Fremont and Newark fire chiefs were at the scene. At press time, no damage estimate had been made, as the Dominican Sisters who were still using the old buildings for storage hatl not yet · made their report of property stored in the building. The. blaze was restricted to the main section of the old Serra Center buildings, which was completely destroyed. According to Coach Dick Paynter, who was on the scene, some theatri-
cal props, about two dozen pairs of football pants and some blocking dummies being stored in the biulding, were destroyed. At the time of this writing, the cause of the fire was still under investigation.

• The present tax rate is 62 cents per hundred dollars assessed worth, for support of the district. Of this, 25 cents goes for the leasing of the present temporary facilities, plus the cost of out-of-district tuition for students who attend other colleges. • This tax, which can only be used for these two purposes, can only be charged for three years after passage of the bond, and it will take at least three years to build the new campus. • After passage of the bond and the building of the new campus, this tax can no longer be charged.

When Ohlone opened for classes in Fall Quarter 'way back last year, I had mixed feelings about the prospects for success . There was elation to be in such fine temporary quarters with a day schedule. M,a ny have forgotten the prospect of late afternoon and evening classes ONLY at Kennedy . And there was a fine spirit of cooperation, a kind of "let's make the best of it" spirit so important in a new institution of any kind. But what would the faculty really be like? And what of student government and other activities? And
would the students make the transition from high school seniors who could smoke? As I see it, the faculty is just great .. Open minded, creative people who like students and really want to see them learn. Student government and other activities have sputtered along in fitful starts · and s~ops . And they need help right now in the form of more candidates for office. But what of the students themselves, that most vital ingredient in the kettle of higher education? At first all was dark dispair. Lounge

If you find yourself inspired by this Thursday's "Indy 500," there's something for you to see this weekend. Rather than rolling your Edsel while trying to make it drift through a hairpin in Niles Canyon, take a ride up to Vina Raceway and watch some real drivers. Lovely Vina Raceway is located 3 miles east of the equally obscure town of Vina, or if that doesn't help, midway between Chico and Red Bluff on U.S. 99E. Formula Racing Association is holding a "Grand Prix" there this Sunday. The program will be all formula cars which are, after all, only scaled down versions of the Indy racers. This is with the exception of course, of the turbine cars. The only scaled down models of those to be found locally are all being used to clean rugs. Admission for the formula cars event is $3; children under 12 will be admitted free. Sports Car Club of America will host a "Phoenix" race June 7-8, for regional championship points. The name comes from the idea that Cotati track was to be abandoned after the last race, but has "risen from the ashes" to be used again. The race will be for all production and modified sports classes, with practice Saturday until 2 p.m. when racing will begin, and a short practice session on Sunday with racing commencing at l1 :15 a.m. T~e anticipated entry is over 200 cars, and if you've never attended one of the local bashes there, try to make it to this one. It will probably be the last, and the local drivers really do put on ~ an excellent show. Admission for the event will be $1 Saturday; $2 Sunday; children under 12 free. To get there take 101 north to the Sebastopol exit, and go one mile north on the frontage road. It'll be all that noise you hear out in the middle of a field.

"We didn't have any depth, so we had to rely on individual performance." Dick Paynter, Ohlone track coach, thus sums up the 1968 track season, which ended May 4, at the Coast Conference Relays Meet in San Jose. The track team managed to beat, during the regular dual meet season, only one school, Menlo. Paynter sees the reason for Ohlone's track worries this season as lack of team members, a problem which plagued every other Ohlone team this year. The track team was especially unfortunate, however, because in most of the dual meets a victory was. impossible because of this lack of depth and experience. Paynter thus stressed individual performance. Steve Dean, Saints' top scorer , ran undefeated in the 2-mile in the dual meet season, taking six straight first, plus several firsts in the mile. Tim Dilbeck, backed by Dennis Ba]5:er, threw consistently well in in the shot (a best of 41 ft., 8 'in.) and discus.

Sawyer Leads Tennis T earn; Four Players Are Returning With Napa coming here and Ohlone traveling there, the final tennis match was cancelled. The two teams got their plans mixed up. At 2:00 o'clock Friday, April 30, the meet was supposed to be held. The season ended without a victory. The team faced some stiff competition. They played against the number three team in the state. The season was topped off by a 3-3 tie to Santa Rosa but the victory was awarded to Santa Rosa because of a forfeit. The Saints started every match behind, 1-0. The netters played with just. four players and a complete team is five. Therefore, one out of every five singles match was lost automatically. · Coach Dick Walsh stated that Lloyd Sawyer was the team's most consistent player. He won just two singles victories, but played very well in the matches he lost. Wayne Johnson, Kirk Hammond
and Steve Grimes were the other three players comprising the team . Ohlone's doubles teams won three matches during the season. Next year looks to be promising for the Saints. All four players will be returning. With the help of .some graduating high school seniors the Saints tennis team will be tough to stop in league action next year.

Meade led the team in almost every offensive department, sporting a healthy .423 batting average, while driving in 15 teammates. He played first base and pitched while in the field defensively, and even substituted as catcher when the Saints' regular backstop was ill. Hedgecock was almost as potent as Meade at the plate, notching a .372 batting average, while hurling Ohlone to four of its five wins. He also saw duty in the infield and outfield when not performing on the mound. Ohlone started off extremely fast ,' winning three games in a row to kick off the year. Lack of depth, however, soon caught up with the Saints, with sore arms and bruised muscles slowing down the attack. · At one time during the season in a game against the Alameda Coast Guard, Ohlone fielded a sparse team of nine men, six of whom had sore arms, one having a sprained ankle, another with a cut lip, and started on the mound a man who had never pitched a game before in his life . They lost a close one, 7-5. All of the twelve players who finished the year are eligible to return in a Saint uniform ·next season. Meade and Hedgecock head the list of seven who have definite plans that include Ohlone, while five others will serve Uncle Sam . Coach Garcia will vacate his job at Ohlone and continue his other coaching spot at Washington Manor Junior High with hopes of getting a job at a high school.

This is no idle statement, because Doug has fought for this country from June 23, 1964 to May 4, 1966. Doug is a remarkable character, with just as a record just as remarkable. He volunteered for the paratroopers and volunteered and served as a Green Baret. He participated in ·22 air assaults and 8 major battles. He has a confirmed body count of 14 enemy killed, and he has won the citation of the Bronze Star and the Purple Heart. Skjerseth, (which is pronounced Sure-seth) began his Army experience shortly after his graduation in 1964. He was inducted June 23, but he ran into trouble when the Paratrooper School found out taht he was partially color blind. However, he talked his way into the paratroopers, and after his advanced infantry training at Fort Ord, he was sent to Fort Benning, Georgia for jump school. On . December 6, 1964, Doug was in Green Beret School at Fort Bragg for 19 months of extensive training. By the time he graduated as a Green Beret, he had made 36 jumps. By the 19th of May , he was in Saigon's 90th Replacement Center, waiting induction into the 5tll Special Forces Group. However, fate had different plans . While Doug was waiting in Saigon, the lOlst Airborne Division was hit hard and needed reinforcement immediately. One hundred fifty men were sent up to Phang Rang Base Camp, and Skjerseth was one cf them . After some battle condition::;

THE OLD WINERY-One of the many historica l buildings at the Hudd leson Ranch.
Picturesque Site Selected For '72 By Marlon Vanderbrugge The Huddleson Ranch, located east of Mission Boulevard, in the historic ·Mission San Jose District , is the site selected for the new Ohlone College. The Board Of Trustees selected the site after a year-long search for a suitable location. The main problem in approving the site was that the ranch was supposedly located on the San Andreas fault. However , after a complete earthquake study it was proven to be safe . The Huddleson family has lived on the property · for 15 years and now has offered to sell the land for $4,000 per acre. The ranch offers 460 acres reaching tip over the foothills and providing one of the most panoramic views in the Bay Area. Surrounding the ranch are acres of olive trees, ponds, and orchards . When driving up the main entrance road, one is suddenly surrounded with hundreds of eucalyptus trees. When standing at the top of the hill, immediately in front of the Huddleson' s house , there . is a sight that is hard to believe. Looking over
the orchards one can see the rolling hillsides and the present Ohlone campus . There are many old and historic buildings located on the ranch, anu when the new campus is built, the remaining buildings will be used whenever possible. The winery, located in the middle of the grounds, is still well preserved, and is now used as a storage room for equipment and tools. The large antique stable is another building that will be used by the school for some sort of activity. Community leaders agree the new campus is desperately needed and there has been no opposition to the bond issue by local groups. In fact, active support has come from every major civic and professional group in the Fremont-Newark area , including the Mission San Jose, Fremont and Newark chambers of commerce, the Centerville Businessmens Association and the Washington Township Bar Asso.c iations. · Editorials endorsing passage of the $11 .1 million bond issue also have appeared in the News-Register, Argus, and the Oakland Tribune .

By Doyle Donehoo One does \ not have to look far to find a comedy of errors . Now take the Ohlone campus . . . If you want to see the Greatest Show On Earth, drop in on the Student Council every Tuesday. My favorite diversion during council ls to count how many times "point of information" is called for . A barrel of laughs. Rcently, the council got the bright idea to do something constructive. A real innovation. Would you believe they are planning a dance·: You wouldn't believe it if you we·1·e there. At first they were going to have the dance at Washington High, and they had a group to play tentatively. Guy, that's real organization. Howev er, they then found out that a play was going to be on the same nl.ght as the dance , which means no parking space. In addition, Washington says no high school students allowed. There goes the profits . Mission · San Jose was suggested. That's out: no teeny boppers! How about The Yellow Brick Road? Fine, but first get that junk out of that auditorium. Any volunteeers? You guess. Newark High? Well, maybe next Student Council Extravaganza . ..

After Sharon's remark he said, "Thank you Perry Ma son! " Boy, isn't he funny? (No) . Boy, isn 't he out of order? Boy, isn't student council out of order?
One boy wanted to find out what happened on a council trip . But alas he was shouted down by someone out of order. The pood guy stormed out right in the iniddle of the chow calling the student (:Ouncil "rinky dink." Now that wasn't nice .

Student Parkin.g Lot: Enter At Your Own Risk By Marlou Vanderbrugge Who said that parking at Ohlone is difficult? I'm sure that many student have been wondering about the Chevrolet that has been parked in the middle of the field for the last month. No one seems to know who the car belongs to and it appears that the owner is in no hurry to get it back. I'm sure that students would like to have their own private parking spot, but the driver of the 'Chevy is the first to think of it. I guess the owner was tired of hearing other students complain about the conditions of the lot and all the small nicks and dents in other cars. Is this the answer to the mounting parking problem? If so, maybe we should all try it. Another thing that is really griping many students is the way people are parking their cars. It seems that no one remembers how

By Doyle Donehoo Click, Zip, Whirr ZOT ! A beautiful cup. Still waiting for the coke to arrive? NO ONE TOUCHES THE MACHINE UNTIL I GET MY DIME BACK ! ! ! I don't know why, but if those machines in the student lounge are going to break down, they will do it just when I put MY dime in. For awhile I wa:s going around with a complex. I thought those machines had something against me. But recently I noticed that it has been happening to other people. Once I even saw a boy put in a dime in a coke machine. No cup, but he got the coke, in his frantic little hands. I nearly died laughing, Those sa,p.dwiches are beautiful! But did you ever taste them?? I just LOVE frozen butter instead of mayonnaise. And that fresh taste is something else? Something stale. Something dead. And who ever has eight cents for a pack of gum? I don't want to complain 路about the splendid variety of the candy machines, so I won't. But I wish someone would teach those machines to subtract. This one machine has it in for me. It is a big block like monster that allegedly vends ice cream. I put my sweaty little quarter in that mouth-like slot . . . and nothing happens!! "GIVE ME BACK MY QUARTER" I shout at the obstinate stoney-faced mamouth, 路before they carry me off. If anyone finds a quarter in the coin return slot, it's MINE!!

Editorial
We Need 'Yes·' · Six more days until residents of Fremont and Newark go to the polls to vote, among other things, on the bond issue for Ohlone. A simple majority of "yes" votes will not pass the bond. A two-thirds majority is needed, which means that we need two "yes" votes to cancel each "no" vote. There is a normal 25 per cent -"no'' vote on every issue that comes before the voters i:n the Fremont-Newark area, therefore, it takes only 9 per cent of "no" votes to kill an issue. There is absolutely no reason to vote "no" on this bond, and every reason to vote "yes." Passage of the bond will not hurt anyone (no increase in tax), but will only be beneficial to the many incoming students who need the facilities. These students could very well be your brothers and sisters, or sons and daughters--don't deny them by ignorantly pl~cing an. "X" in the "no" box. I
Guest Editorial
Yes Vote On BondSchool financing is one of the complex mysteries of our times, but the June 4 Ohlone Junior College ibnod issue can easily be reduced to a study in simplicity. For those voters concerned about the $11.1 million ballot measure, it boils down to this fundamental ec·o nomic situation: Asking the district to choose between a temporary and permanent home is like asking a family of four to rent a one-bedroom home now and buy later, at greatly inflated prices, when they know they will need a four-bedroom home within two years. The basic difference since the last time the district tried to win the same argument is that this time it knows where the house it, approximately how big it must he, and how many children it will have to hold. To the students who will attend Ohlone in ever-increasing n~mbers (from 1,440 this coming year to more than double that number within four years) it means the difference b.etwee·n getting an even crack at the labor market or continuing college education with students from other junior colleges, or being penalized by cramped, inadequate quarters and classroom offerings. As it is now, they will have to remain in rented, tempor_ary quarters for three more years. It will take that long to get the new building up, even if it is approved. To the taxpayers who must foot the bill, it means a much better return on their money. Passage of the measure will not increase the existing 2·5 cent tax for leasing eixsting quarters for the next three years. And, thereafter, it will mean an actual drop to an · 18 cent levy for redeeming the bonds. It is cheaper to buy than to rent. On the previous bond issue we cautioned our readers against approving the bond issue because the decision-makers did not know where they were .going to build, what they would need in the precise way of buildings, or just how many students they would have to accommodate. A year of operation, and more intense research of those questions, have now provided the answers which justify asking the taxpayers now to vote the necessary money to do a vital job. The Argus, with complete assurance and comfort, now urges its readers to adjust to these changed conditions and provide our young people with the kind of facilities they need, and deserve, to meet the increasing dmands of our complex society. · Vote "Yes" on the junior college bond issue June 4. The future of your children depends on it.

Abundance Of Problem-SolversExcept When You Need Them By Jim Azevedo Yes, we have no election. Or maybe we do. At press time nobody knew for sure. The problem is that, again at press time, only one petition for office has been turned in to the election committee, and only one other was in circulation. Not too much excitement therethey weren't even for the same office. Student government has been pondering the possibility of postponing the elections scheduled for today and Friday, and as you read this the few people interested will know what decision was made. This situation poses an interesting problem. Student elections in the past have not been met with overwhelming response, either on the part of the candidates or the voters , but this time the old bandwagon has nearly rolled to a standstill. Why? Why, at a time when so many people are taking an active interest in national politics, can we find nobody who is willing to run for a student body office? It could be that it is more fun to set up a table and pass out stickers and buttons and sit around on your
duff and tell everyone what you think is wrong with the world and what you know to be the answer to all the world's problems. Perhaps, in the light of 'these heady issues, the simple hard work of running student government is too mundane to trifle with. It seems to be much more fun to organize student "strikes" and discussion clubs than it is to actually do anything about what you encounter every day. Or don't we have any problems at Ohlone c·ollege that are worth bothering with? Where are all the people who made such an odor when the first constitution was passed excluding a great percentage of the student body from voting in student body elections? Where are all the people who sat on the front lawn and nodded their heads in solemn agreementt with Steve Bammel's plea to get involved? We know how Bammel feels a.bout what he said; his is one of the two petitions for office that have been taken out. All the people who daily decry the inadequacies of government, who have an answer to every world problem, where are you when the student body needs someone to handle its problems?
ONE OF THE MANY signs put up by the bond campaign committee echoes our hope that the bond elect ion will pass.

The Saints' Herald welcomes all letters, which may be deposited in the box outside the door of B-:l7. Letters must be signed and may be edited for brevity, not substance.) Dear Editor : . I woud like to know what exactly makes up a track team? To my understanding, a team is made up of a few great athletes and mostly the "little" men that go out and try their best. They take pride in their school and what they feel they are doing for it. They may never do as well as any of the other team members, yet they try to improve. There are three things thnt make them go on. First, of course , they
enjoy the soprt. Secondly, they go out for track because they want to show people all over that the school they attend has interest in sports. The last reason is , they try their best to earn a letter in sports for being on the team. The team holds practic(' during the week, and some team members can't make it to. these practice sessions because of class conflicts and working hours. So they r,racticc daily during their spare time. And, although they may always be last in their events, they go to every track meet and do their best. I can understand not giving anyone a letter for the soprt if they didn 't do anything, but when they do practice and show up for all of the track meets, and try their best they should receive a letter for the sport. They have been lettering people up to this time very liberally; so what the hell is the difference now? Dennis Baker

"We take this opportunity to think everyone for their assistance, cooperation, and most important, support of the concept that our college should provide a. forum for the free and orderly discussion of contemporary issues. We should permit, ·indeed encourage, informed presentations of different points of view. Since our democratic form of government requires an informed electorate and one function of education is to provide information, we support the forum on educational grounds. "But we also live in a world marked more by change, both social and technological. If such change is to occur in an orderly way which employs using rational thought processes, then the college has the responsibility to . provide a forum ."
