College Receives Grant For Science Equipment

Drinkers

Dr. BYRON GUYER ASSISTANT INSTRUCTOR

Before joining the Los Angeles State college faculty, Dr.' Guyer was chairman of the English Department at Diablo Valley College in Concord, California. He also served as an Assistant Professor at the University of California at Davis, Assistant Professor at Humboldt State College at Arcata, California, and was an instructor at Stanford. CONTEMPORARY TRENDS

Among the professional organizations of which Dr. Guyer is a member, are the: Modern Language Association, College English Association, and the California Association of Teachers of English. He is also a Fellow of the International Institute of Arts and Letters in Zurich, Switzerland. In commenting on his talk Dr. Guyer said, "I will com-

During the regular meeting of the Administrative council on Tuesday, October 20, 1964, the following policy was adopted in regard to conduct at school dances: It was moved, seconded, and carried that the evidence of drinking· or possession of alcoholic beverages will be cause for immediate expulsion from Palomar College; and further, that conduct unbecoming a: college student will be sufficient reason for expulsion or suspension or other disciplinary action as recommended by the Dean of Student Personnel. The Administrative council will also recommend to the Board of Governors that it adopt a Policy supporting this administrative regulation. When asked if he would comment on this new administrative ruling in regard to conduct at dances, Dr. Frederick R. Huber, President of Palomar College, replied, "The Administration is most concerned about the welfare of all students. It is regrettable that a few students can refuse to accept their responsibility to maintain proper law and order. I urge all students to recognize their important role as citizens of this college community and to support the administration in its efforts to have students remain in school and gain a valuable educational experience."

Representatives

The National Science Foundation recently announced a $2,000 grant to Palomar College for construction of science laboratory equipment. Specifically earmarked for construction of a diphenyl ether calorimeter, the research grant is the culmination of a project originated earlier this year by William L. Bedford, head of the Palomar physics and engineering department.

Four Palomar students recently discussed the pros and cons of Proposition 14 during a debate sponsored by the Young Republicans and the Young Democrats. Gary Gray and Curtis Barnes, representing the YRs, were for the Proposition. Terry Dunbar and John Stuermer, who represented the Young Democrats, took the con side of the issue. NATURAL INTEGRATION

Proposition 14 is an initiative to create a Constitutional amendment that will outlaw the Rumford Fair Housing Act and prohibit future fair housing bills. Supporting " natural integration," the Young Republicans said that the Rumford Act was an infringement on the rights of the majority . They also stated that the act was contrary to the beliefs of the majority of the citizens of the state.

Student Question Poll

GOOD CHANCE

More of the Young Republicans' arguments were based

Most Students Felt That Present Dress Code Is Appropriate

STUDENTS INTERVIEWED

The representatives questioned approximately 10% of the student body during the survey. Sandy Emsbach, a representative, said that the survey is· not completed and that more students will still be interviewed. One of the issues discussed was the dress code. Fifty-two per cent of the students interviewed felt that the code was appropriate, while 46% felt that changes should be made. The remaining 2% had no oPinion. CODE RELAXED

About one-half of those wanting changes were of the opinion that the code was too lenient, while the remaining half wanted the code relaxed to allow capris for the girls. Two-thirds of the students felt that a permanent television set would be a good idea. However, they qualified their statements by stating that it should be used only for events of national or world-wide importance. Many Qf the remaining students who voted no did so because there is no appropriate place on campus for the set. Others were of the opinion that it would detract students

LAST LONGER

The largest percentage of agreement, 92%, among the students was over the use of rooters buses. Most of the students said they they thought it was a "great idea" and did "much to promote school spirit." Concerning social activities, 78% of the students wanted the Executive Council to provide more dances, hoots, guest speakers, and movies. Many also expressed the idea that the present dances should last longer. The remaining 22% said that the Council was providing enough activities at the present time. NEW CONSTITUTION

"One of the most surprising results of the survey was the number of students who have not read the Associated Students' Constitution," said Sandy. About two-thirds of those questioned on the idea of a new Constitution stated that they had not read the document or were not familiar with it. However, of the remaining one-third, 23% felt that the present Constitution needed definite revision and should be continually kept up to date.

Redford worked under an NSF research grant last summer at the University of Cal ifornia. In connection with that project he compiled the detailed application for t he grant authorized for Palomar this week. Bedford said the instrument, primarily designed for measuring the heat released in chemical reactions or in forming alloys, will be assembled (Continued on page 3)

on the idea that it is impossible to separate human a nd property rights. And if property rights are lost, "th ere is a good chance that the rights of others will soon follows." The Young Democrats based some of t heir arguments on the basis of the need for fair housing acts and the Constitutional right to acquire property. They stated that since there is discrimination, provisions should be made to protect the rights of the minority groups. They also stated t hat social ills would result if the amendment was passed. BOTH SIDES-

The debate was divided into arguments and rebuttals. Five minutes were allowed for the arguments and two minutes for the rebuttals. Moderator for the debate was Richard Norlin, English instructor. Evie McBride, an observer of the debate, said, "I felt that the debate was very good . Many good points and issues for both sides were brought out."

SKETCHED BRIEFLY

New Veterans Club Forming

On Campus Veterans are forming a campus club. In response to an announcement over the P-A system, ten prospective members met in room R-4 to draft plans. Since members will be veterans of military service and in most cases over 21, emphasis will be put on a mature approach to campus life.

READY ACCESS

Powell feels there is a real need for this type of club. Eligible veterans would have ready access to scholarship and other information made available by the club pertinent to veterans. The club a lso plans to " help out" in case of financial emergency if possible.

Evie McBride, who is working on the election committee for the Young Democrats stated, " We feel that it is very important that all the students participate in the forthcoming mock election." If students begin to take responsibility in their local and national affairs at this time they will be better prepared to cope with the world situation and will be able to actively and intelligently participate in national affiars in the future." POLITICAL CHOICE

Following the election, the results will be released, first to the Telescope and t hen to the otherpapersinthearea. Another committee member commented, "The results of the mock election will also be used after the November National elections to compare political choices of the students with those of the electorate in the area."

Newman Club Holds Discussion

The second Newman Club discussion entitled "The Collegiate and Collegiate Morality" saw fifty-five students in attendance last Wednesday. The. five students on the panel were Vicki Meredith, Catholic; Link Horton, Christian Science; Wally Wood , Community; Leona rd Avila, Catholic; and Santos Rana, Hindu. CHANGING MORALITY

Miss Meredith gave an example of changing morality by bringing up the point that skirt length have shortened since the late 1800's from floor length to knee. Horton thought that parental example of moralities for their children was the greatest part of determining what the standard of their chi ldren's morality would be. The general concensus at the end of the meeting was that the Ten Commandments set the patte rn but that society sets the particulars of morality. FOOD DRIVE

The drive to gain food and clothing for the poor parishoners of the Pala Mission was started Friday night at the Newman Club Hallowe e n Party. J:he admission was an article of food or clothing. They received about five b ig boxes to donate to the Mission so far. FIRST PRIZE

The party was attended by thirty peopl e dressed in costumes. Richard Canaan won the first prize for the best costume of the men. He went as a little boy. Vicki Meredith a nd Mary Cuziak tied for the women's first place. Miss Meredith impersonated Madam Adam from television and Miss Cuziak was an Indian Girl. These three people became king and queens over the party.

lnformed People Will Support Proposition 2

" If Proposition 2 fails, there will be no significant funds forthcoming from the state for junior colleges during the next decade," emphasized Sheridan Hegland, Palomar economics instructor and former District Assemblyman while addressing members of the Patrons of Palomar in the Student Union Tuesday evening. Hegland, together with Dr. Frederick Huber, Palomar College President, and Tom Wilbur, Associated Men Student's President, formed a three man discussion panel which was moderated by Dr. Doyle Dannenburg,

former mem&er of the Palomar board of Governors. The main object of the discussion was Proposition 2, a $380 million construction bond which will provide , approximately $50 million for construction of junior college facilities if passed. INFORMED PEOPLE

The Patrons sponsored the discussion in order to better inform members and all those interested on the issues involved. "Informed people will support this Proposition," said Dr. Huber. "We're doing our best to inform as many voters as possible." Dr. Huber stated that by 1967 P alomar College would be filled to capacity. If Proposition 2 is passed now it will be a step toward meeting needs of the College when further expansion is necessary. Money provided by the bond issue cannot be used for gymnasiums or auditoriums. Tangible evidence of benefits through the issue of such bonds can be seen here at Palomar. Proposition 1A passed in 1961 provided $215,000 for the building of increment 5 which will be under construction in November.
