Research Presented Dr. Harry C. Mahan, Palomar psychology instructor, presented a paper to the psychological association in San Diego recently.

The summary of Dr. Mahan's research was on the effect of chronic alcoholism on the brain and specifically the extent to which it results in a lessening of •·quantity of mind."

Although this fact was suggested in 1913, Dr. Mahan was the first to develop a method of measuring the loss accurately.

LIKE ANY NEWS MEDIA , newspe. pc1·s are susceptible to errors:-~ nd th e Telescope is certainly no except ion. In our las t edition, we pullet! a g ooll. one, and all we can do is offer sincere apologies. On page three, we ran a review , of the Drama department's play , " Roadside," omitting - not intenti onally- the male lead of the production, Mr . Don ~f organ.

We make mistakes lill:.e anyone else ; except our mistakes are usually inexcusable. A good news paper strives fo r per fec tion as an ultimate goal-but n ewspa per people are human, and no human is perfeet. Our error was a glaring one, and tnis week the Telescope shamefully hides its h.e ad and bows very apologetically to Don Mor gan, who gave an ex tremely commendable performance each night the play was pr esentoo. Our s incere apologies, to you, Don Morgan.

CONGRATULATIONS ARE certa inly in order to this ye&J''S Associated S tudent Body council, which was headed by ASB President, Brian Greenwood . Our couucil re ceived cr iticism t his yearand sometimes justifiably so. But all in all, the council h as worked har d th is year in carrying out Greenwood's campaign promises of 1958 for " increased extracurricular act ivities." No single member can be singled out for an outstandin g job on t his year's council-all the mem bers were outstanding.

THEN THERE'S THE i'TORY

a bo:1t the toul'ist in Californi a who went looking for a "genuine beatnik" in a prominent Northern Californi a city. The tourist finally located a " genuine beat hangout," and promptl y went inside. What did he find?

The place was crammed with other tour iets, all a sking each other if they were beatniks.

(Seriously, the word "beatnik" provides a convenient classifi cation for those mental patients who cannot be ad mitted t o our already-overcrowded mental institutjons. By calling themselves "beat," they ar e permitted to fre ely roam tbe streets, like normal human beings.)

IN REFERENCE TO A STORY in a local newspaper concer ning Palomar athletes (see page 4), it seems the entire t hing bas been blown completely out of proport ions. T he Palomar athletic question certainly did not rate as much atten tion in a paper as woul d a story about a person impersonating milita ry personnel. Im per sona. tion ot Arm ed F orces personnel carries a sti.1f penalty- something (roughly) like five years in a F ederal prison or $10,000 in fi nes; or both. In the n ewspaper world, there are certain "ethics," as in any pr ofession, t hat shoul d be observed . Using c.h eap tactics to obtain a desired end or goal, whether the tacti cs be legal or otherwise, often reflect directly on the news organ involved ; and produces t he question: " Is this a reliabl e in[ormation sour ce?"

A Memorable Year -

Says Italian Student Franco Bonardi "The year I have spent in America, especially the friendships I have made at Palomar, has been memorable," says Italian student Franco Bonardi.

Fran co is leaving in the midd le of June, for a five to six weeks tour across the United States.

"I hope to sp!md some time in Ne\v York, \Yhile waiting for t he ship back to Genoa," he said. Majoring in Bus iness Adm inistration, Franco will contin ue his s tudies at t he University of Genoa.

Asked what h e thought of American campus

life, Franco said, "The informality between faculty and students is amazing. In Italy, strict formality is practiced, and I believe t he American way is better.

The attire worn on campus is different in Italy.

There, it is formal and the girls are not as independent in their manners and dress.''

Franco is eager to see his family after his year in America, but we are sorry to see him leave. The Rotarians of Encinitas sponsored Franco while he was in the Un ited States.

SLOOP AT REST but being made ready for her South Seas voyage is the 30-foot boat belonging to freshman James Ingham, who, with two friends, will leave Dana Point Landing, Quivera Basin, present

Art Students -

Complete Mosaic for New iuiiding

By M aria Nob l es

Few people ca n say, " I have created something that will be enjoyed by those who follow me. " Fran cis Hutchins and Charles Barretto, Palomar art students, will say this when their mosaic art work is permanently set in the exterior of the new gymnasium building.

"It is just one more example how the Art Department can beautify the campus by student participation in cooperative projects of this kind," said Mr. John Barlow, art instructor.

The decorative piece is a geometric color plan of the dome, based on the actual erection plan of the building designed by Kaiser Aluminum Corporation architects.

A new innovation in design and materials is used. Approximately 200 pieces of colored vinyl floor tiles make up the inner pattern wbich will be matted in a ring of colored roof gravel to act as a framing enclosure. The diameter measures six feet.

Hutchins and Barretto gave I 00 working hours to complete the project, and the mosaic will be assembled on the building this summer.

Mosaic art is a slow process but renders a permanent freshness and beauty, Mr. Barlow said.

'Bullfighting Combines The Artistic With Athletic,' Says Palomar Student "Some people enjoy sports and others art. I feel that bullfighting is combining the artistic with the athletic," says Jim Priddy, a Palomar sophomore.

Jim first became interested in bullfighting while in Spain during his service in the US Army in 1954. He had much opportunity to see the authentic bullfights of Spain. On one occasion he had an oppor tunity to vis it th e dressing room of Antonio Ordonez, Spain's top ra nking m a t ador, a nd talked with him whil e th e matador dressed and made pre para tion to go to th e arena.

This incident firs t a roused Jim's inte rest, not just as a fan (aficio· nado) but a s a n actua l candidate for bullfighting s chool. '.I have been taking private lessons from Ruben Corarles of Tijuana for a month and a haH and I will continue through th e s ummer," Jim said. He is learning to work with the capote which is the large working cape and the mu elta, the s maller one. This profession is not an inexpensive one. The complete outfit including his costume and equipment will cost Jim

Historical Ceremonies Traced To 13th Century Diverse as graduation ceremonies are around the world, they all have one thing in common: the graduate receives gifts.

One theory claims that the four-cornered quadrivium is still symbolized by the rectangular hat that our graduates wear. A more earthy explanation is that the peculiar shape of the hat protected its wearers from raina boon to English graduates, who often attended commencement under a lowering sky.

"T HE BAND AS A UNIT is becoming more important in the field of symphonic musi c, " said Mr. Burrill Monk, Palomar band instructor. "This music medium is appealing to the general public because of the popularity of the instruments used and the liveliness of the music created ." .,.._ The fine tonal distinctions that can b e made with an orchestra cannot be mad e with a band, and thus these two symphonic forms will always remain separate.

Symphonic bands are becoming more variable, and should be more widely used and celebrated in the near future.

Here at Palomar, according to Mr. Monk, several types of music are played including m arc.hes, novelty tunes, show music, and symphonic pieces. The band begin~ the school year with marches, during football season, then later as the students gain experience, symphonic music is played. This symphonic music gives the students a greater chance to exe r cise their skill in musica~ performance--using delicate shades of tones an-d exacting rhythms.

Mr. Monk concluded with "The symphonic composers po pul ar with P alomar students are Strauss, Beethoven, and Dvorak."

are in addition to numerous scholarships awarded area seniors at their high schools last spring. In addition, 19 scholarships have already been awarded for the Fall Semester 1959, making a total .of 46 scho larships in academic sub· ject areas awarded this year.

Many scholarships have been made available to the students at Palomar College by org a nizations within our commu nit y and as a result of this generosity, no student body fuods as such have been involved in this scholarship program. All contributions, however, from organizations within our community, f or s c holarship purposes, have been admin: i stered throug h the Associated Student Body Schola rshifl Fund, a fund set up within the accounts for t h is purp ose.

The Comet Boosters organization of our community has established a stud en t activity scholarship fund similar to those awarded in academic areas, and their desire has be en that these scholarships be awarded primar ily to students who par. ticipate in the athletic program . These scholarships vary in amounts from $35 to $150, and this year 26 scholarships have been awarded. Th i s program has been approved by the Palomar College Board of Governors and has been discussed with last year's Student Counc i l and with the Faculty.

Th i s year there has been mad e available a total of 27 sch ol arships i n amounts varying from

that

sound management procedures in that it makes possible the administration of funds contributed by an outside organization, giving the control of such money to the college rather than to some outside group. This makes it possible to ' keep the scholarship program and student activities in balance and u nder control.

I do not know what the attitude of our Con--terence will be in this situation , but it was thoroughly diseussed with our Athletic Conference representatives at their meeting in the Spring of 1958.

Inasmuch as we believe this program to be sound an d reasonable, there will be no change in our pr ese nt scholarship policy unless we are otherwise directed by the State Athletic Committee or the South Central Junior College Conference.

By Bob Wallace

The unanimous decision of the Palomar College Trustees to continue the present policy regarding athletic and activity scholarship aid to deserving students was not only a wise one, but the only one.

Any other ac·tion by the board would certainly have been intervrete<l a's an admjssion of guilt-the one thing this college definitely does not deserve.

Let's get something straight right at the beginning. Of all the scholarshi p programs followed by members of the South Central Conference, the one at Palomar is least deserving of susp icious glances.

\Vhen the present Palomar scholarship plan was formulated early J·u;t ).ear, Dr. John Dunn, college president, was well aware of any JlOtential pitfalls as a result of his experience as an investigator during the Sl holarship scandals that rocked Antelope Valley. Dr. Dunn was also aware of the constant bickering and accusations between SCC membPrs concerning their athletic programs.

In order to avoid any such difficulties for Palomar, Dr. Dunn wisely made certain all interested persons ·were fully inf-ormed of the complete program. The activity and athletic scholarship plan was submitted to the student body for its approval; the board of governors; the faculty; and most important, the conference members themselves.

Not_ a single, solitary voice of disapproval was heard by any of these groups!

That program has been followed, to the letter, e\·er since. No ot~er orogram could have been more fair, honest and above board, desp1te what the disjointed ramblings of a local "sportswriter" seem to insinuate. After hearing, from reliable sources, of his questionable tec·hniques to try and deceive a student, inchJding impersonating a member of the armed forces, one can hardly place much credence in his apparent one.man crusade to clean up a situation that doesn't even exist.

I believe this whole situation "a adequately summed up by Bill Corc hran, Oceanside athletic director, when he was quoted concernin!!; Palomar's athletic scholarship program. Corchran said, "I believe the {•oaches and adm inistrators at Palomar College are hono rable and dedicated men. Therefore, the scholarship program at Palomar must be an honorable one."
