Letters to the Editor

Are you tuned in?

Are you tuned- in to the turned- on under-30 generation?

Managing editors of about 250 of the nation's newspapers were presented with a set of 10 questions · recently on topics of interest to the nation's young people.

Most of the group attending the Associated Press Managing Editors Assn. convention admitted t hey could answer correctly only three or less of the 10 ques tions, which dealt with entertainers , terminology, authors and social concerns whic h are important to the under30 generation.

The questions: 1. Who is the singer on the recording "Alice's Restaurant?"

2. What three states in the union are regarded by hippies as THE place to go?

3. Who is the anti-Vietnam war activist directly involved in the recent release of three Americans held as prisoners of war in North Vietnam?

4. In organized hippie societies, what is the term for those who provide food and clothing for those who do not work or cannot work?

5. What are habitual users of the drug methedrine called (two words)?

6. What is the true nature of the ideological split within Students for a Democratic Society?

7. Who are the four most popular authors of the young generation, indi-

cated by campus bookstore sales?

8. The National Student Assn. recently voted to spend $50,000forwhat purpose?

9. What is the entertainment fie ld of performers Zager and Evans? Music?

Pop art?

10. Which of the following is not the name of a popular rock music group ?

The Vanilla Fudge; Blood , Sweat and Tears, Canned Heat; The Milk Wa gon, Blind Faith.

The questions were posed to several hund r ed members of the unde r-30 ge ne r ation before they were given to the group of newspaper, executives, said Robert Haiman of the St. Petersburg (Fla.) Times, whose APME committee developed the test. Haiman said he "tested the survey on all our copy boys, summer interns and all our reporters under 25 years old. Their average was nine right and one wrong."

About a dozen of the 250 managing editors said they correctly answered six to eight questions.

"The answers: 1. Arlo Guthrie; 2. Colorado, Uta h and New Mexico; 3. Rennie Davis; 4.

Diggers; 5. Speed freaks; 6. traditional hippies vs . Maoist hardliners and black militants; 7. Hermann Hesse , He r bert Marcuse, Kurt Vonnegut, Phillip Roth; 8. Black repartions; 9. Music; 10. The Milk Wagon.

NEW CREATIVE WRITING INSTRUCTOR

'We are a group working together'

By Martha Miller "I find a superior quality in the English Department here," stated Mrs. Betty Webb, English instructor.

Last semester Mrs. Webb took over Miss Barbara Corcoran's creative writing class whe n Miss Corcoran became ill. She has remained at Palomar and teaches one creative writing course. two sections in English I, freshman composition a nd two sections in English 100 , Language and Ideas .

We sat together now, in a relaxed atmosphere, chatting about Palomar.

"I feel that there is a very real i nterest in the students as individuals here. It is an exciting experience to be associated with the members of this department," she said.

Mrs. Webb has an enrollment of 35 students in her creative writing course.

She conducts the class in a "group discussion" manner. Students are required to turn in four short stories during the semester and no other assignments are issued. "When a manuscript is completed, the author reads his work to the group and then comments and suggestions are made. I do not teach technique perse. Rather, I feel it is more pertinent to introduce it when the occasion presents itself." she said .

"The majority of my students are interested in fiction, but we also work with non-fiction if it is done from a creative standpoint. Several students have a special interest in poetry which they share with us."

Although Mrs. Webb states that the re are several promising writers in the group, two students have recently sold their manuscripts . Bill Sorrell will have a featured article, "The Terrors of Treasure Hunting" published this month i n True Western magazine, and Robert

Mehl has sold some of his poetry.

Mrs. Webb lit a. ciga"l'ette and continued in ·her warm , soft- spoken manner.

"The theory of the Language and Ideas course is to illustrate to the student that it is essential to have s om e substantial basis for wr iting.

Eight English ins t ructors teach in s equence, presenting a two- week unit each.

Lectures on a given sub ject are supp lemented by group discussion and films.

Mrs. Webb s aid that s he will teach a unit on "The Revolt in Amerlcan Education'' the first two weeks in December.

C.oncerning students , Mr s . Webb smiled, "Well , to begin with, the r e are enough truly interested s tudents to make teaching fun , but I feel that anyone is c apable of being r eached if he is appr oached in the proper manner.

For the most part, the s tudent must feel free to explor e unknown areas and reach his own conclusions . We are a group working together."

Mrs. Webb received her BA from San Diego State and taught freshman composition there as a student teacher.

At UCSD she taught humanities as a assistant for three years, and is now a candidate for a Ph.D. from that university.

A native of California and originally from Los Angeles, the instructor now resides in San Diego at Point Lorna.

Her hobbies are cooking and gardening and she enjoys outdoor life. Her 16 year old son is a student at Point Lorna High School and her daughter and son- in- law are both seniors at UCSD.

Many people are be ginning to become aware of the fact that our humanity is s tandi ng in the dawn of a new age. Last winte r I spe nt six months in a small c abjn in the mountains below Lake Tahoe . I spent most of my ti me reading or walking in t he woods . T he thing that c ontinually impresses m e about nature ie its rhythm, balance , and harmony. These eleme nts are ofte n missmg fro m e·lives of men, and this is so r e fle cted in thei r s ocieties .

The concepts and s tandards which will c arry us into this new age are still being . discove r ed and the c onscious or unc ons c ious choice s made by e ach one of us will dete rmine the nature of that which is to come.

This can be the . age of the enlightenment of man if e no)..lgh of us choose to accept the responsibility of the progres s of our personal des ti nies. This , it seems, will necessitate becoming conscious. I believe that consciousness is the living experience of wisdom and maturity.

Apathy is nowhe r e . T he r e a r e no shortcuts. Life de mand s atte ntion.

If e nough pe ople c an be lulled to s leep the result could be another da rk age On the other hand if e nough sem iconscious people seek and hold their identity in the m ass it could be the e nd of t he growth of freedom for all time.

The secr et of the new age see ms to be that man must eithe r become c onscious or go under, there 1s no th1rd way ar ound . We must know what love and brothe rhood represent. We stand togethe r as fr ee men and women. We experience as conscious-individuals together in love.

Intellectual games can be a gr e at avoidance of responsible consciousne s s a nd those who default by not thinking at all only aid the manipulators, who wish to c ontrol us, who thi nk they have the answers for ever yone . Of course people who do not c hoose to be respons ible for · themselves allow this kind of power.

Feeling and thinki ng are tools which aid us to understand truth as reflected in us and ar ound us . I believe there is Absolute T r uth r efl ected t hrough life.

T his truth is then t eflected in t he individual acco rd ing to his attunement with life.

Social str ucture is necessarily a r eflection of the s tandar ds and beliefs of each person i n it. Social t rut h is not a movement or a philosophy, it is our own inner potential; seek it.

To avoid chaos there must be a structure, but that s tructure can not be imposed from without, or from the top down, from the s tate to t he people, it can only exist as an out growth of individuals who create it and keep it alive from the spring of their own living.
