Palomar Barbecue and Fiesta Proves To Be Success; Many Enjoy Events
Palomar's third annual Fiesta, first one held in San Marcos, proved to be a very successful affair as hundreds of pleasure-seekers gathered on the College's future site, May 6 and 7 to witness a series of events sponsored by the Associated Students. The purpose of this year's fiesta was to acquaint the public with the new campus site and to raise money to help the debt-ridden student body. Both aims were successfully carried through as the huge crowd turned out Sunday to enjoy the barbecue, polo game and gymkhana events. Approximately three thousand people enjoyed the delicious barbecue prepared ' by Jack Adams and served with the united help of the Palomar Patrons.
Polo Thrills ('rowd Teams representing San Bernardino and San Diego gave an exhibition of polo that kept the spectator glued to their seats until San Diego came out ahead 8 to 7 in an overtimE' period. Guy H. Campbell and his family were very much in evidence as l\1r. Campbell played for the S:an Diego team. His son began as rpfer;e and ended up playing aga in~;t his father when a San Bernardino man was injured. Mrs. Campbell took over the job of referee, and their daughter was prominent in the gymkhana. Approximately 125 horsemen put on a series of gymkhana events such as stake races, bending races, potato races, and a dangerous pick up and ride to thrill the crowd. Beautiful trophies and ribbons were awarded to the winners and runners-up in the even ts. On the midway, concessions and booths such as a miniature roller coaster, palmistry, game , soft drinks and snacks added to the festivities.
Pel e1·sr'n Stealg Spotlight Big event of the Saturday offerings was the Pageant 1yhich drew a sizable crowd in spite of the bitter cold . Featured in the pageant were student dancers trained by Mr.s. Lu Breining augmented by the Joy Sheldon Dancers of Oceanside, specialty acts and the clowning of Dick Petersen in an impromptu female impersonation which kept the crowd in giggles. Total receipts for the fiesta came to $1,543.90 which, after expenses were deducted, left a profit of $858.67 with about two hundred tickets yet to be accounted for.

The re.-.;olution followed discussion of' estimates on the move, g-ained by consultation >rith engineer-s and after conferring with Navy officials on the possibility of moving abandoned stl'uctures at Camp Miramar to San Marcos. The Navy would make 10 buildings available without cost and they could be moved to San Marcos at about $300 each, according to an engineering e~timate. Moving of the present buildings located in the Vista Recreation Center to San l\1arcos would cost approximately $3600.
Costs Estimated Of the total e~:>timated cost of the move $27,366, included were: carprntry work on Navy buildings, $3000; total \Yater costs, $9601 ; water layout on ·flite, $500; foundations, $200; sanitary equipment including toilets, bil~-;ins, etc., $3.275; septic tank. $f'i.OOO; roads ancl parking are ·1, $2,000; electric senicc, $1,000; Bntane, ~1,500. ,\deled to this \\'HS $J,500 for .<>ttpervisory work and . ·1,500 for cant in gen cies.
