dience, the effect of th e disruption of the Berkeley classes, and the actions of Edmund G. Brown, governor of California, in the situation. Peggy Biszmaier, pres ident of the Young Democrats, said, "We hope to have many students attend the discussion. Both clubs feel that it will provide the stude nts with an opportunity to learn more about what is happening at Berkeley than the information that the local papers have been providing." SUPPORT STUDENTS Another m ember of the Young Democrats said that the YDs hope to have petitions there for students to sign in support of the Berkeley students. They then hope to present these petitions to the Palomar ASB Council for further action or to send them directly to t he Board of Regents.

Palomar Students Donate Blood For lniured Girl
The gang counseling program, utilized for the second time at Palomar last Friday, was deemell a " big success" by several students and members of the faculty. The purpose of the program is to set aside an hour when all the students and faculty advisors would be free to meet and discuss the problems and · questions about majors, transfer programs and registration. AMPLE TIME By having such conferences in a group manner it was hoped that everyone could benefit by the questions of all, thus saving the student and instructor much time and repetition. It also enabled the advisors to give general instructions on the s teps to take for pre-registration , thus providing ample time for indvidual counseling later in the hour. Virgil Bergman, Dean of Student Instruction, stated that the gang counseling program was "excellent." He said, "The rooms I saw were full. I was very pleased to see the number of students who responded to this. It was an excellent chance to explore the courses the students must take in line with transfer institutions." RECEIVE CERTIFICATE Counseling in the area of English majors Robert Mikkelsen had this to say, "We ought to do it earlier to get the maximum advantage out of it. The students should check sc hool catalogs more carefully so they can ask more meaningful questions." He added that the counseling program was a "very good thing." Although Librarian Esther Nesbin had only four in her group of library science majors, they are all enrolled in the new certificate program in library science and will receive a certificate of pro· ficiency after 17 units. Mrs. Nesbin said it is much more helpful to have one time when they can all come, because she could have everything ready for them. "I would like to see this continued," she said.

"Medicare Is What People Want,'' Explains Va n Deerlin Goldwater Defeat Gives Democrats Opportunity For Workable Congress In an appearance last week at Palomar College, Congres·sman Lionel Van Deerlin told students that the defeat of Barry Goldwater has given the Democrats the rare opportunity to have a workable majority in Congress. Going further, he discussed some of the planned reforms that Congress will attempt to use in the 89th session. Among these will be an amended Seniority system. NO ACTION The 21 Day Rule will probably also go into effect, according to Congressman Van Deerlin. This rule allows the Rules Committee chairman, or a ranking member of the committee, which has previously worked on a bill, to call a piece of legislation out of the Rules Committee, if no

Sophomores Plan Free Hayride . Sophomore Class President, Vincent Streano, is resigning from his elected position on the Student Council since, as he says, "I won't have the time next semester after I become the editor of the Telescope to put the needed effort into my present office." Streano has worked on the Palomar magazine, Focus, one semester and has been the sports editor for the last two semesters. Peggy Biszamier, the present Vice-President of the Sophomore Class, will become the new President and she will have to appoint another student to be VicePresident. A hayride is going to be held by the Sophomore Class on December 23 starting at 7 p.m. The students will go over to Lake San Marcos first and sing Christmas Carols and then if there is any more time they will go into Escondido. Students may sign up to go on the hayride in the Activities Office and there is no charge. The truck and hay has already been donated by local dealers.
action has been taken within 21 days. - Another reform would allow the Speaker of the House to call a bill out of committee. PUBLIC FUNDS When the issue of Medicare came up, he said that he felt that the bill would be passed before Easter "because it is what the people want. In San Diego 19 million dollars in public funds would have been saved if the plan had been in effect last yea r. " Speaking on the Democratic gain in the last election, he said that Congress will now be able to enact progressive programs. The gain of 38 seats in the House, according to Van Deerlin, was really more because some Dixiecrats in the South had been defeated and replaced by Republicans who are "even more reactionary. But the Democrats will not have to continue to count them on their side."

"Palomar College supports regional planning and would urge that the Oceanside-Carlsbad College board and administration approve of this type of planning.
