WHO IS HE-PHIL H. PUTNAM?

By Don Wolfe We all know him as Dr. Phil Putnam, President of Palomar College. But what is he really -like?

What has he done before he came to our College?

Dr. Putnam is a native of South Dakota, being born and raised at Custer. He is married and has a son, Jere Ky, age 5~ years.

He is the proud possessor ~f three degrees. He earned his B.S. at Black Hills Teachers College, his Master 9 s degree at the University of Oregon, and finally winding up with a Ph.D. from Stanford.

Directly before (~omi:,1g to Palomar College he was Vice--President of Van Port College at Portland Oregon, for six years. He is now a resident of Escondido, where he is an active member of the local Rotary. In addii:t.i.on, he is e, Mason, his lodge being in Oakland, Oregon, and he is also a member of Phi Delta Kappa.

Dr. Putnam is deeply interested in a greater development of Palomar College. He is trying very hard to secure many of o~ greatly needed furnishings and equipment.

He is expecting in the immediate future to have a black-topped court of an area of 60 feet by 90 feet for basketball, tennis and handball put in. There is also a building, which will shortly be moved to the campus from Vista to further add to the lounge area.

Another item of prive importance is the problem of lights and bleachers for our football field.

Dr. Putnam states that he is shortly to have a tax levy put into effect which would cost the average tax payer aprroximately $3, and would provide Palomar with the necessary football facilities, and with a much better campus. To be included among the improvements would be a patio, which would have a dance floor.

Our President would like to commend the students of Palomar on their extremely high attitudes of cooperation and helpfulness. He feels quite proud to be able to say that the median average of the College Entrance Examinations is much higher at Palomar than at the average Junior College.

VOYAGE (Continued from page 1)

1951 she and her family vacationed during the summer months in Denmark.

Last August 15, she sailed from France on the SS United States, and arrived in New York harbor in record time on August 19.

After a few days stay with a family in New York she traveled by train to Los Angeles where she was met by the Simmons family from Vista.

The Simmons v, with whom she is now living, are members of the Rotary Club, the organization that is sponsoring Miss van de Poel.

She will stay with a different Rotary f&~ly every six weeks.

She attends the Rotary meetings every Wednesday. ~~ ss van de Poel loves horses; the sports she likes best are: horse riding and especially dressage. She has won several prizes and a challenge cup in this sport.

Other sports she likes L~clude swimming, skating, and tennis.

She also enjoys going to museums and exhibitions.

She will be here one year and hopes to learn the language and much about the United States.

QUESTION OF WEEK ? ? ?

Last of all, Dr. Putnam is justly proud of our prevailing pioneer spirit here at our school.

He deeply appreciates the zealous efforts of the volunteer workers and the way in which everyone goes out of his way to improve the Collage.

He finds the Palomar Patrons and the citizens of surrounding communities working overtime to make Palomar the outstanding junior college on the Pacific Coast~ He is working hard fer that ultimate end.

That?s your College President, a man who has Palomar, you and your interests. at heart.

Would you be willing to give your mesencephalon?

Jer~J

Sorg - it all depends on who wants it. , Al Woolley- Yes, because it's not doing me any good.

Be~ ty Bea Roberts - I think I 9d better keep it, it might hurt.

Don Riggs - Yes, because I 9 d hate to go rthrough life single.

Edna Wilson - No, I might need it some time.

Sallie George - Yes, it bothers my conscience and makes me fe.el terribly depressed.

Jack McNeil - No, it would ruin my r ep<lt at ion.

COl-iET SPARKS

By Al'

During the past three ~<reeks the Palomar Comets 521 footb~ll squad under the coaching of Bill Dae, has been rounding into shape for the oncoming gr id-iron tussle.

Our opening game of the season was with Chino.

Although the score showed they had won 32-7 by a lopsided score, we had a high firing Comet eleven out ther e battling not only Chino, but a 103-degree heat. We started off with a bang, when Lemon Schick piloted the team into position for the never say die, Bobby Leith to score the T. D. and kick the extra point. In the remaining quarters the heat and Chino, changed things as Chino started scoring and we just seemed to have run out of gas on offense. It was later learned that Chino is a semi-pro team, so our coach had this to say: "Although we lost, I'm proud of my boys cuz they never gave."

With our opening game now in the past we are looking forward to our encounter with Palo Verde, at Blythe, for our first victory.

The Comet squad is small, but fast and wit h a little support at our home games, we'll play the game if you~ 11 do the rooting?
