Assignment for May 6th and 7th
Just as all of us know that fire burns, that ice is cold, that yesterday cannot become today, so it i.':> common knowledge to each of us that the success or fa ilul'e of the fiesta is dependent on the efforts contributed by the student b,ocly as individuals.
\ Ve are a student body with faith in each other- and when we losE' that faith '"e are weak. \Ve al'e a student body with a faith in reason and the unending pursuit of new knowledge-and' when we lo e that faith "·e are insecure. \Ve are a student body \Yith a faith that Palomar College is bound for tl1e heights-and when we lose that faith our school is lost.
Palomar is in its pioneer stage. W e have yet to hecw that pioneers have an easy tint'e of it. It is a li·me of everlasting hnsll e fo1· survil)al. In the end, wlHJ.t do we see in the way of ·results? We sir~ cerely hope we 1oill receive th e 1·espect and goodwill of the snrronnding commnnities. We have faith I o believe that Paloma1· will soon be given its n'ghtful place. Becoming a ghost college is uo intent of ours. What can Palomar do about its threatened ghost! It can arouse the apathetic <'Onnnuniti s by putting on a Oil(' hundl'ed per cent sncCP>;Sful fiesta. 'l'his coming fiesta is the b l'Ht opportunity \re hnve ever had to advertise Palomar. It is nn uncontested fact tllat Palomnr should be 011 its own site. JJots of i ngemiity and hard \YOrk Iirs b<'twecn Palomar and its building ;;ite; but we 'rp bPtting on tlw col lpge. All concerned have the enerl!y, vision and the will to work hal'CI. 'l'ili>; will and hard work "·ill brin~ PaloHt'lr and the site together. 'l'here is no satisfactory sub~titute for that eombination. ft is l'il'mly helieved that the successful conclu:-;ion of the fiesta ancl tlip assnred future of the college are somC'ho"· link('d togetht>r . \\Tp haw a right to expect t'C>ntlts from th e advC'rtising I'<'C(•ivPd from tiH' JH'('SP!It ntion of a sensation extntvaganz;l.

'l'he clerk, fed up with rc•d tape, buck-pas~ing, forms , politics, and above ~n, efficiency experts, gr owl ed: '' r don't do a thing.!" 'l'he interrogator nodded, made <t note, th en tur11 ed to the other clerk.

"IImnmnn ," lie said knowingly, ''duplication!''
Any time now, Bill Blacklidge, m· one of the fiesta co11unittee. will be tappir~g you on the shoulder. !Jet's don't have that kind of duplication ju ·t cited. SurPly, tlze work will be huHl and a lot of it dirty, getting the {}I'Ou.nds into shape. The least we ccm do is g1:ve ow· utmost cooperation. Lack of terunwm·k will spell defeat. 'J 'lt e money we have a 1·ight to ex]Ject to make in this 'nenture will go towards lhP liqnidation of the ASB debt. As thi<; new event confronts us, whieh on t he faee of it, looks like a large headache or worse, let ns say:" Make it un adventure! Here is a chance to broaden our experiE>nce; go ont and meet the untried! " Palomar is on trial. A great c hallenge, yrs, and a gn•at advE'nture lies al1ead.

Your Problem-the Move to San Marcos Due to the intervening Easter vacation it was impossible to get a completr student reaction to. suggestions of an editorial in the Escondido Times-Advocate of a recent date . The e<)itorial propofied that in view of the recent unsuccessful bond election and the unavailability of other funds, the required move be financed by contributions of the citizens of the are;1 and of the studen ts, faenlty an cl alumni of the college. ·w ith the hopes for a new bond election in the future very dim, and the necessity that thr college b e on the San Marcos site by the openinO' of the new semester in September, the 'l'im cs~Advo cate' propo al offers a ray of hope in th e darkne . Student r eaction to the proposal i de ired. What the Palomar students think of this suggestion is important. Therefore, the T elescope has placed a box in th e administration office to receive student opinion on the subject. Act immediately-this concerns you.
