College Heads Drama Class Full Slate of Greet New and. To Stage Ten Officers Take Old Students Little Indians Council Jobs 8y Palomar President Daniel C. McNaughton Two significant occasions, the opening of college for .its third year and the publication of the first issue of the Telescope for 4849, are worthy of special notice.

On behalf of the Governing Board and the Administration of Palomar College I wish to extend best wishes to the Student Council, the students in general, and to the Telescope staff for the most successful year in our history.

The job of building a college, its traditions, and its student life is so big that it requires the hard work of everyone. Student body officers, class officers, and members of the college staff show signs of many idea s, close co-operation, and willingness to work together. I hope that all students will get behind their elected officers and work hard for a greater and better Palomar. In student activities as in everything else, the individual receives only in proportion to what he contributes.

My personal congratulations to the Telescope Staff and their sponsor Mr. Stevenson, on this issue of the college paper.

By Dean John L. Blair I am in a particularly fine position this year to welcome all of you, because I am still so fresh in my discovery of how much P~lo­ mar is a place worth welcomtng you to. As ·1 began to learn of our college I quickly found the two things most important about it, beside which any temporary turbulences began to seem comparatively trivial. For one, that it is a small college where we can have the personal kind of educational atmosphere not possible in an institution of great numbers. For another, that it has its future ahead of it and not behind it.

I am still realizing how much Palomar is a fine place to be a dean in. And the things which make it so are also those which make it a fine place to be a student in. My welcome, therefore, is partly my congratulations to you for having the chance to be here and to us for the chance of having such a fine student body as yourselves. The rest i~ is my reminder that Palomar s s1ze and youth mean, more than anything else, that it will become whatever we all can make of it, this very year. So that when our grandchildren some day ask us, "Pop or Mom or both, what did you do to justify your exis:ence .in 1948-49?" we can rise w1th pr~de and say, "I helped start Palomar off to be what it is now!", and then we can sit back and enjoy the glow of awe in the grandchildren's eyes.

So, welcome to such a prospect !

The opening production for this se mester by the dramatic class will be "Ten Little Indians", by Agatha Christie. The "Ten Little Indian s" refer to the cluster of statuettes on the mantlepiece of a weird country home on an island off the coast of Dvon. When the curtain rises and the play begins the story revolve s around the nursery rhyme, telling how each little Indian meets his death until there were none. Embodied in this plot of mystery are eight assorted guests who arrive for a week end.

Their invitations are from an unknown host.

The story enlightens, while during cocktails the first night a strange voice echoes through the house accusing everyone present of murder. It is not the sort of murder for which a conviction can be obtained in a court of justice but a murder nevertheless. First, one little Indian falls from the mantle a01d breaks-immediately thereafter a guest is found dead.

Each death is preceded by a broken Indian.

Then the thrill and excitement begins and runs amock until the final curtain. Humor, mystery and clever suspicions enhance the terror and enjoyment of the play.

Who did kill the "Ten Little Indians?"

Under the direction of Mr. Kelley, the tentative cast is as follows: Vera (the young, lovely secretary)-Donna Dysart.

Emily-Charlen Fifield.

Wargrave (the judge)-Richard Petersen.

Blore (the detective)-Gilbert Gillogly.

Dr. Armstrong-Richard Brenan.

Mrs. Rogers (the caretaker)Mrs. Dysart.

Kenzie (the retired General), Rogers (the caretakers son) and Lombard are not cast as yet.

Make up and rehearsal secretary is Ardis l\:1iles.

Stage manager is Gilbert Gillogly.

PalfJmar Art Class Draws ''St111 Life'' Under the instruction of Mr. Shaumburg, the drawing class has been undertaking various problems in "still life". Recently, as you ha ve probably noticed, if you have ventured out on the lawns , several easels have been set up during various times of the day as eager young artists apply themselves t o what they do or don't know.

One of the objects which the instructor has attempted to impart is the stressing of rhythmic values. The way the lines run and the basic design of the drawing all give a rhythm to the picture.

The class also ha s been working on perspective and the values of colors, the darkness and lightness of any subject.

If any one has wondered about the pictures in the student lounge, by whom they were done, and by what manner of evil, the credit goes to Doris Montgomery, Marcella Gobbel, and Helen Monavon. These masterpieces will eventually be replaced by similar pictures from other members of the

class.

The students of Palomar voted their selection of candidates for the five vacancies on the student council last week. While the number of candidates was not large, the balloting was brisk. There seemed little indecision as to the student's choice.

After the counting was all over, Louise Gootgeld was named as the new secretary to fill the vacancy left when Cleo Sloan took up the process of earning a living with her work in the book store.

Louise is one of the seven sophomore girls at Palomar.

Dick Brenan, sophomore class president, was also elected to the office of commissioner of men.

Jerry Mattson, present editor of the Telescope, was upped to one of three members-at-large for the student council. The other two members-at-large were Gilbert Gillogly and Sandy McCloud.

With a full slate of officers to implement his plans, Student President Ray Kerby was looking forward to a busy session soon. A dance program will be laid out and school activities expanded.

"The students have elected a good group of officers," said Ray. Now it is up to us to plan a program. We will neeJ the c.o-operation of all the students."

The full council membership now lines up as follows: President, Ray Kerby; Vice President, Lee Anderson; Secretary, Louis Gootgeld; Treasurer, Stan Cook; Comm. of Women, Marilyn Smith; Comm. of Men, Dick Brenan; So ph Representative, Jim Marshall; Frosh Representative, Tom Canady; Members at large, Jerry Mattson, Sandy McCloud, Gilbert Gillogly.

Journalism Class Member Is Proud Pa To Student Bill Montgomery and wife Florence, probably the most important single event of the week ending October I was the birth of a baby at the Escondido Community Hospital. In the modest and unassuming words typical of all new fathers, Bill Montgomery, a stalwart of the journalism class, describes the child simply as the most beautiful baby every born in the local hospital.

With considerable understatement then Bill likened the long · legged boy baby to a breath of fresh, clean air in an otherwise melancholy world. In the same deprecating tones Montgomery said the soft brown of the baby's hair had all the beauty of the mother who bore him; that the blue of its eyes had the depth and inocence of an early morning sky; that the bloom of its cheeks was like nothing so much as the peals of a newly budding rose.

With all of his seemingly backwardness in speaking of the child, just a faint note of pride could be detected in the new father's voice.

Jess Peter Montgomery was born early on the morning of October I at the Escondido Community Hospital and weighed eight pounds, one ounce. Mother and son were expected to be home within a week.

Introducing The Faculty_ Some Thumbnail Biographies The Palomar Student Body has a very able faculty this year. So to help them get better acquainted with their instructors, we are giving each member of the faculty a brief introduction in this first issue of the Palomar Telescope.

Foremost of the new faculty members is DEAN JOHN L. BLAIR, former dean of the college of education at Kent State, Ohio, and now the dean of Palomar College. He came to California two years ago and has been living in San Diego until this summer when he took on his heavy duties as dean.

WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 20, 1948 WHAT'S BEEN HAPPENING- (Continued from page 2 There was studying, too. Said Don Chamberlin on the Escondido bus Wednesday , as he struggled with isotopes and neutrons, "It is amazing the things that have been done in chemistry in re.cent,,Years. It is more amazing that nobody ever told me about such th1ngs. · From the pile of books they carried home each night Lois Turner, Joan Watson, Nylene Beebe, and Marjorie Ting must have been burning the midnight oil too. It is one way to keep the waistline down.

William Vogel, beside tuning up his "Messiah" singers each Monday night, has started the formation of a band. Dr. Dan C. McNaughton expressed belief that, though money for uniforms had not been appropriated this year, there was enough in the gen.eral fund to get a start on equipment. Plans are underway to ask serv1ce clubs to sponsor the uniform problem.

In the meantime the school continued to grow. Two new Escondido students in the ranks for the first time this third week were Mary Rubio, sister of Josie, and Bill O'Neill, brother of Donovan who was hurt in the first football game of the season. Bill showed signs of capably filling his brother's shoes on that team as well.

In thi s day of hot political in-fighting, of viewing with alarm and pointing with sco rn, it was refreshing to note that Palomar College held its class election this week without so much as a single herring, r~d or otherwise, being dragged across the campus.

In the sophomore class Dick Brennan took office as president; Manuel Saenz as vice president; Josie Rubio as secretary and Marilyn Smith as trea surer. The sophomore council repre se ntative is Jim Marshall.

For the freshman class Norman Kettering was elected president; Dick Smith, vice president; Barbara Johnson, secreary; Ray Farris, treasurer. Tom Canady went in as freshman representative on the all-school council.

In the yell leading the boys won out over the colorful girl couple Ethel Williams and Anita Ronay. Jim Hodges, Kent Keeler and Bob Frankenfield won the right to yell themselves hoarse at all athletic contests in the year ahead .

The enrollment of Palomar increased by five a few days ago when a mother cat and her kittens walked so lemnly across the compound and took up quarters near the photo trailer. They were a scrawny looking lot and Nancy Maginnis rusher into the godmotherly role of furnishing a bottle of milk.

Fancy Nancy, who doubles in brass as secretary for an Escondido attorney and whoops it up as secretary for the Escondido Grape Day Association, as well as carries fifteen units of college work is a reasonable facsimile of a busy woman. On' top of all these activities Nancy M. is advertising manager for this issue of the Telescope.

Ray Farri s, treasurer of the freshman class, was pounding tre corridors this week looking for freshmen with a dollar for the annual class dues . "Money Bags" Farris said the cash would be used to put on the Freshman dance later in the year and buy "Beanies" for all the "Pea Greenies". Louise Jones, the spa rk that fires the Farr is boilers, was last seen pointing out a likely freshman for Ray to put the bite on .

With a change in the weather this past week a new note in the girls' clothes has been very apparent. Marilyn Smith had a ke lly green woo l number that looked like a brea th of the "Ould Sod" itself.

Dotibeth Higgins had her hair up on the top of her head on last Monday, and, speaking of hair, Marjorie Ting is one of the · few girls with he new short cut. While most of the gals stay with an orthodox style of shoulder length hair and a bit of a curl or wave , Marilyn Cook shows a lot of versatility. One day she has a black velvet bow, the next a page boy, and then a Joan-of-Arc drape with bangs. It would seem that Marilyn changes hair-dos oftener than she c hanges boy friends. ' For those kind sou ls who would shed a tear for the long night hours the Pal omar students spend riding the bus, we offer a word of caution.

True, about the la st period the guys and gals begin to bog down under thelateness of the hour. True, they drag ou t to the bus at the starting hour of I0:15 and sit shiveri ng in the cold night air. True, they yawn and squirm for a block or so as the bus gets under way. But in due time someone starts up a song and for the next ten miles into Escondido the rollicking roar of untrained voices sounds over the highways. Phil Kin sey of Valley Center and Ted Meyers of Escondido have talked over ways and means of canning the energy. that is expended in only one day's bus riding. "It will amount to more than the energy from an atomic bomb," says Ted. For those statistically minded about Palomar College, a list of the brother and brother, brother and sister, sister and siste r acts has been tabulated. There are Mary and Josie Rubio of Escondido; Louise and Ray Gootgeld of Escondido; Jack and Bob Clarno of Fallbrook; Larry and J ack Weir of Vista; and Bill and Donovan O'Neill of Escond ido.

Last week the football team drew a bye. The boys were needing it to recover their breath after the beating at the hands of OceansideCarlsbad. The next football game will be played on Couga r Field in Escondido against Cal Poly of San Dimas on October 23.

Basketball practice was due to get underway in the gym this week.

PALOMAR PETE Suggested improvements for the school: . .. No lipstick on the girls drinking fountain and as an after thought; drinkrng fountains from which one can obtain a little water once in a while . . . Both sides of the cafeteria opened on Monday, Wednesday and Friday thus shortening the lines . .. Ninety four hours in each day to enable the students to apply two hours at home to each subject and still get eight hours of sleep . . . A locker section for those who come on the bus . . . Use of the public address system for important announcements.

For why is the cho ice of food in the student cafeteria so sadly curtailed?

EXCLUSIVE! Interview W ith C1eo At one time or another I know all of us must have been in the student book store and the student lounge. And I know if you are on the male side, yo u very likely took note of the attractive young lady who so capably handles the book store. (If yo u didn't yo u're either blind or married.)

Some of us already have had the pleasure of meeting this young lady, but for those of you who haven't, I'll give you the straig ht dope. She is Cleo Sloan, an ex-student of Palomar.

Cleo isn't a talkative gal by nature but she did have a few things to tell the Telescope.

First of all she wanted to thank the student body a nd the facu lty for their co-operati on in making the book store a going business rather than a madhou se during the first two weeks ofl sc hool.

"There is just one Iitie thing I'd like to emphasize," said Cleo.

"And that is the students carrying out the coke bottles and then not bringing them back. You might let everyone know that it is the Associated Student Body that has to pay for those lost bottles, so actually they are throwing away their own money."

Then Cleo went on to say that the patrons of Palomar have several ideas on tap for the lounge; suc h as three permanent tables at one end of the room. There will be some refurnishing and redecorating. But here is the best news of all. The patrons also have promised to provide the lounge with a radio-phonograph. Won't that be hard to take?

Roses and Thorns Roses to t he brown haired one in the book sto re who takes yo ur money with a smile . .. It ha s been rumored t hat when as ked she said . . . "Ya pays ya money and ya t akes ya choice." Is t hat any attitude to take Cleo?

Thorn s to t he boy with the loose tongue who delights in making snide remarks in mixed company.

It seems to your corresponde nt that this is hardly t he mark of a gentleman. We we re taught whe n yo ung to respect a mixed gathe ring . This correspondent has hea rd seve ral of t he more vigorous members of the football tea m inqu iring as to t he probable a ncestory of the worm.

As t he old India n te nt ma ker Pal-omer-pe-te , once said , "Ye who are guilty know of who m I speak!"

Orange Coast Game Brings Out Students The football game against Orange Coast, October 2, brought out many present and former students of Paloma r college.

A few of the alumni were Freda Kerr, Kenny Vantsdale, Mary Ric hardson, Ja ck Stewart, Bob Miranda and Geneva Ware.

Arriving in couples to cheer· for our gray and red colors were Anita Ronay, Larry Smith, Ethel Williams, Wayne Cummings and Cora Lee Clagg, and Skip Stevens. O thers were Hal Standerfer and Jane Sutton, Helene Ruppel and Howard W eaver, Loui se Gootgeld and Jim Mars hall as well as the rooters who came over on the bus.

After the game many of them went to Balboa to attend a dance.

6UCKETBALL TEAM BEST YET The Palomar College basketball team of this year is expected to be far superior to the sq uad of la st year. This is due to the fact that there are seven returning lettermen plus several freshmen prospeds. Returning lettermen from last year's squad are Lee Anderson and Clinton Smith , the two leadil'lg score rs; guards, Jack Clarno, and Di ck Brenan; and forward Ray Kerby. Some of the more promising prospects are Norman Kettering, of Escondido; Bernie Pelsma, from Colorado and Jimmy Hubble, of Coachella.

Last year the ba sketball team was handicapped by the lack of a gym to practice in. Although they were able to use the high schoo l co urt it turned out to be very inconvenient, as the high school was using it at the same time.

Many of us have been looking forward to the appearance of the first issue of this year 's "Telescope. " Last year's issues were an important part of Palomar College because through our sc hool paper we were kept informed about things in which students are interested . The paper should fulfil this funct ion again this year.

The Palomar Varsity's gridiron battles have nothing on t he furious struggles that take place eve ry Tuesday and Thursday in the men's gym cla sses. The eager grid stars there have been divided into touch-football teams, each struggling to prove its supe riority.

With brute force and cu nning they will battle each other during the coming weeks until around Armistice Day when they switch to the basketbalL courts.

According to Coach Harper, the classes will also be given tests in such physical activities as rope Climbing and the I001ard _das h during this se mester. There wdl be IS feats in all, including mostly track events and basketball, baseball, and football throwing.

McNaughton Reports On Administration Confab

NAVY·s BIG GUNS RIDDLE PALOMAR

Orange Coast Barely :Beats

P. J. C. Team Still smarting from the defeat handed them the preceding week

by N.T.C., San Diego, Palomar's Crimson and Grey squad got very hostile during the opening minutes of the game against Orange Coast and ended up by coming close to a win. Going into the game a twenty-five point underdog, Coach Harper's starting eleven literally stopped cold the potent running attack that Orange Coast sported in defeating Riverside J. C.· the week before. Coast scored in the opening minutes of the second quarter to take the lead, 6-0. The score remained this way until the half. Coaches Harper and Williamson needed to give only a slight pep talk at the half, as the whole team was fired up and ready to go.

Palomar looked even better as the second half started and they immediately started tossing a few aerials; one being from Manual Saenz to Norman Kettering, who went high into the air with two opposing players covering him and made a beautiful catch. The same play was repeated immediately, only this time Manuel passed to Clint Smith who took the ball over his shoulder and crossed the goal line standing up. Don Scheffer then proceeded to electrify the crowd as he barely floated his extra-point kick over the cross bar for another point which left the score 7 to 6, Palomar leading.

Orange Coast began to realize that the Vista aggregation was playing for keeps and they threw everything they had at Palomar; but for a time the forward wall held, and it was then that O.C. started firing passes. Steadily they marched down the field to Palomar's seven yard line. Orange Coast's left halfback then went around right end where he was tackled at the goal line. The umpires ruled he had scored, and the lead changed hands again, Orange Coast 12, Palomar 7. With only five minutes to play, Palomar was unable to push over another score and the game ended with our side on the short end by 5 points.

The Navy moved its big guns onto t he football field of the tra ini ng st a tion at San Diego in the sea so n's first game and pulled the trigger. When the smoke had cleared away, the score read: Training Center 40, Palomar J. c. 0. way the team played against the heavy odds," said Coach Harper after the game. "Norman Kettering and Clinton Smith of Escond ido we re outstanding in their defen sive play. " Di ck Smit h did well punting for Palomar. Hal Standerfer stood out nobly at hi s gu a rd position.

McNaughton Says: .. Everyone Dies For His Beliefs ...

"Eve ryon e die s for the things he bel ieves in, " said President Dan C. McNa ughton to Palomar College students at the first assembly.

"The trouble is that so many people believe in so little."

In his short talk President McNaughton told the students that it wa s the purpose of the school to point the way to an understanding of the worthwhile things to believe in. "With the right sort of beliefs we can best serve our community," said the President.

Student President Kerby also introduced the dean of men, John L. Blair, and dean of women, Dorothy B. Babcock. Dr. Blair expressed his pleasure at the way the first week of school had gone and stressed the close teacher, student relationship possible in a small school. Dr. Babcock brought out the point that student participation in the school's affairs had much to do with the success of the year's work ahead.

Dr. Dan C. McNaughton returned to Palomar College Friday from the convention of the California School Administrators at Long Beach, California. The administrator's convention was held in conjunction with the convention of School Trustees of California.

The educators discussed the problems of primary, secondary ond college level work.

Dr. McNaughton said the principal emphasis of the meeting wa s on the place of vocational education in the school curriculum.

"We find," said Dr. McNaughton, "that over half of the students are training for jobs that cover only ten percent of the labor market."

Dr. McNaughton was referring to the high percentage of students who are training for the so-called "white collar" jobs. "We need to train men and women for the jobs that are available," said the president. "The logical trend is toward a better preparation to make a living," Dr. McNaughton concluded.

Dr. John S. Carroll, Superintendent of San Diego County schools was elected president of the administrator's association for the --coming year.

PHALEN PLAYS OPENING HOP Palomar College held its "Welcoming" dance within I0 days of opening day in the school cafeteria. The lads and lassies turned out in droves to hear Rex Phalen and his band. During the evening the football team was introduced

by Coach Hueston Harper. The decorations followed the gamerally tradition, with goal posts and the new scarlet and gray uniforms as displays. Student President Ray Kerby and his Council were on hand to bid the new students and teachers a goodly welcome. Well over I00 students attended and early in the evening they started cooking on the proverbial front burner. The cake they baked was quite a mixture too.

There was a boisterous gaiety in the crowd, and the band stirred it with a big spoon, · spiced with the essence of friendly anticipation and the color of bright dresses.

The zany antics of that pixilated pair, Louise Jones and Ray Ferris, lent just the right amount of yeast to the mix. The whole thing was topped off by the delicately molded features of Marilyn Smith, as icing.

Ray Kerby and his hard working council with the help of Jerry Mattson, Jim Hodges, Dick Smith, and a number of others put the dance over. The pleasant, friendly tone of the evening had the school year well sprung away from the starting gate.

The cafeteria was gaily trimmed in red and white with dummies at each end of the room dressed like handsome (?) football players, which carried out the theme of the opening of football season.

To the mellow music of the ever popular Rex Phalen and his orchestra, the dancers glided dreamily around the room.

Candy and cokes were sold to the students during the intermission by Lee Anderson and Manuel Saenz.

One of the highlights of the evening was the Conga line in which almost everyone participated.
