The Telescope 21.15

Paper to publish semi-weekly issues EDITORS NOTE: This is an editorial comment on the change in publication of The Telescope.

Palomar College has San Diego County's first semi-weekly junior college newspaper. It will be the first such publication in the 21 year history of the college.

Publication days are Tuesday and Thursday.

The Tuesday edition will contain newe1 and sports; Thursday will be news, editorials ana features. The paper will be distributed on the news rack during the 11 hour on those days.

It is the first time that the newspaper staff wili write, prepare and produce a new.spaper on a regular basis using our own• printin~ equipment on campus. Four tabloid ed:it!on~ will be printed on an experimental basis for the remainder of the semester by The Teles·scope staff. If response is favorable and the system is applicable for the spring staff, the program may be continued.

The switch to the new system is benefical to the student body as well as to the publication

staff. News distribution will be improved and the coverage reaching the students will be more current giving the opportunity for the average student to keep up on the details of all campus activities.

Lastly, the journalism department as a whole is benefited because a larger number of people will pa:r;ticipate in the production of more issues. Writers gain the experience of setting up news anp feature coverage for close publication dates and learn to seek out more items for publication. Graphics personnel work with real deadlines in setting up and printing the revised campus publication. Each individual involved has more responsibility added to his job 'and therefore learns more proficiency and further expands hfs knowledge of communications.

A change couldn't come at a better time in the semester. We are presently faced with campaign issues that the student voters must be informed about in order to intelligently cast their votes in the up-coming ASB election. Once people are informed of the issues by the paper

valuable discussion and free exchange of ideas can occur. Hogefully this will give rise to a student body that has both active participants and those who can give intelligent crittcism due to their honest observations and knowledge.

The Telescope represents the entire spectrum of student thought and its main job is tQ'' report and criticize events occuring on the campus and events effecting the college community.

A student newspaper is an important part of the total campus program. When Palomar College started 21 years ago in old army barracks on the Vista High campus, The Telescope began.

FIRST ISSUES OCCASIONAL PRODUCTIONS The newspaper started out as an OccaSionally produced mimeographed sheet before the cotlege moved to ffie present site in the early 1950's. After the move, The Telescope expanded to a tabloid which made infrequent appearances.

In the late 1950's the first regular newspaper was produced by the college. First it was a tabloid published monthly and then pro-

duction was moved up to bi-monthly deadlines. · In 1962 The Telescope underwent another change when the paper was organized into the first weekly tabloid production by Theodore Kilman, communications department head. This schedule continued until four years ago when the paper changed its format to a full standard si_?;e 8 column paper.

Still another format change occured three years ago when the girst graphic arts equipment was acquired by the Communications Department. The number of columns was changed to five and the full size page remained. The staff began to do part of the reproduction work with the new eauioment.

The same sheet size and five column format continued until this issue when we inititated tighter deadlines and began to exoeriment with the idea of a semi-weekly tabloid publication.

This enables us to totally produce The Telescope on campus for the first time on a regular basis.

Brennan's cagers look for initial victory Olympians, Spartans defeat Comet hardwood quintet; Palomar to host Southwestern tomorrow night Coach Brennan and his Palomar Comets are nearly two weeks into their PSC conference action and are continuing their search for the initial victory of the season.

Hot-handed Mike Judd was all Palomar College could offer in the way of opposition Saturday night as the Comets dropped a 104-87 PSC outing to host San Diego Mesa College.

Judd found the range for six field goals in the initial half and then went wild over the final 20 minutes of action as the 6-3 forward meshed 11 fielders tn route to a 37-point outburst for the night.

However, the Comets were able to get no closer than a nine-point spread (4940) at halftime as the Olympians muscled their way around the boards and steadily pulled away from the Comets.

The contest marked the 18th straight loss for the locals and left them in the cellar of the Pacific Southwest Conference ranks with an 0-3 won-lost slate for the campaign.

Palomar had its problems from the outset as the locals were unable to find the range and had trouble adiustin~ to a full-court press by the Olympians.

The Comets finish out the first round of action in the PSC tomorrow night when they entertain the Southwestern Apaches in the Dome Gynasium at 8 p .m.

There are 40 minutes of play in a junior college basketball game but in Palomar College's contest with arch rival MiraCosta on Tuesday night in the Dome Gymnasium all that counted were the last three seconds With the score tied at 69 all, Mira Costa gained possessioon of the ball with 50 seconds remaining in the contest and went into a stall that ran out all but the last three seconds when Spartan guard Bobby James passed to forward Ray Bolden , who bucketed an 18-foot

jump shot to win the game 71-69 .

The loss was the 17 th straight defeat for the Comets, dating back to Febuary of last year and 13th loss this season.

"They got the ball to the right guy," said Comet Coach Joe Brennan concerning Ray Bolden's game-winning bucket.

Palomar attempted a stall with 2:40 remaining in the contest and the score deadlocked at 69, but a bad pass got away from Gary Farr and the ball went out-of-bounds to be turned over to the Spartans.

"We were trying to get the ball to Judd during the stall , but it just didn't work," Brennan added.

Mike Judd, who has come into his own during the last few games after a relatively slow start, bagged 20 points against the Spartans.

Palomar led through the first five minutes of play, but hit a rough spot in its offense and found itself traling 16-11 with 13 minutes left in the first half.

The Comets fought back to tie the score at 26 all when center Rudy Waarenburg tallied two points with 4:40 left in the half.

The game continued to be a "seesaw" battle with both teams holding the lead several times. With 25 seconds remaining in the first half of action it ap peared Palomar would be able to go into the halftime intermission holding a lead as they led 39-37. But a cer-

tain Spartan came through with two points to deadlock the score 39-39 at halftime. You guessed it, Ray Bolden.

Mira Costa opened the second half by dominating the scoring for the first five minutes to open a five-point advantage (50-45) Palomar came back behind the scoring of Sam Blalock, Jon Thatcher and Judd, With Judd doing the honors of scoring the go-ahead score (51-50) with 13:55 left in the game.

The Comets padded their margin to 67-56 with nine minutes remaining before the Spartans could spark a rally.

Curtis Rowe and UCLA Brubabes to tangle with P C roundbailers Spectacular is the word to describe the upcoming UCLA-Palo:Jr1ar CollP-ge basketball game. Scheduled for January 27, the younger edition of the number one ranked major college basketball team in the nation will tangle with Joe Brennan's striving Palomar quintet.

The Brubabes, led oy 6'7" center Curtis Row , will travel from their Westwood campus to San Marcos for the second time in three years. Row, who is being publicized as the next Lew Alcindor by the UCLA athletic Public · relations department, is currently making his high billing look good.

It is emphasized by Brennan that all Palomar College students who hold an ASB card, are entitled to free admission and may obtain their tickets only at the college Business Office.

Tip-off for the encounter, which drew an overload, standing room only crowd when Alcindor and company invaded the Dome Gym two years past, is set for 8 p.m.
