TELESCOPE THREATENED

ASB President sets demands On the afternoon of April 7, at approximately 12:30 p.m., the Associated Student Body president of Palomar College verbally voiced his opinion of the ineffectiveness of THE TELESCOPE to offer c onstructive criticism of student government and student council actions. Before a member of the ASB Council and the editor-in- chief of THE TELESCOPE, the president threatened to cut off all ASB funds for the paper unless "constructive " criticism in the form of editorials, letters-to-the-editor, and news is printed consistently. He attacked this semester's newspaper as being "negatively" critical of the ASB government in all areas of coverage, stating that the present coun-

istration will start at 7 p.m. Friday night at Camp Marston.

cil has done more this year for the students of Palomar than any previous council. The leader's dialogue was prompted by a letter-to-the-editor that appeared in the April 7 issue, stating that ''there are a few council members unwilling to sit back and watch the ASB Council screw the students.'' The letter was written by a council member. According to the president, the letter should not have been printed, because it contributed to an overall "negative" view of the council that the newspaper is presenting. A number of demands were voiced by the leader. He expressed the desire that an entire page of THE TELESCOPE be devoted to coverage of ASB government activities, and stated that it might be either a front page or back page of an upcoming edition. He repeated his opinion that the newspaper consistantly presents "negative'' criticism with no effort toward criticism that seeks a constructive outcome, and stated that he was "tired of seeing this crap in every issue." When reminded by the editor of THE TELESCOPE that the particular letter in question was one person's opinion only, the president repeated his statement that it should not have been run.

Persons attending will be involved in two I 1/2 hour seminars Saturday afternoon. Bring a sleeping bag, notebook, questions and $10 .

He claims that the s·t udents at Palomar are not capable of differentiating between news and personal opinion, and that they believe everything they read in THE TELESCOPE. He feels that the average student on this campus does not know the difference between an editorial page and a sports page.

For more information about the conference or about transportation call any of these numbers: 453-7037 (Ed), 2871641 (Pat or Carol), 453-1967 (Mike or Scott).

Members of the TELESCOPE staff will reply to the ASB president's demands in a staff editorial in next Tuesdays edition.
