In comparing his slate's purpose to that of the "Students for Change", Donnelly said, "Students for Change advocate elimination of ASB cards for student government, which is a way of saying do away with ASB cards. The ASB card supports each and every section and aspect of this campus, community, students and people here at Palomar. Are the Students for Change really thinking of you? "Students for Change are advocating an end to the fascist, imperialistic operation of the ASB bookstore. Here again Students for Change have showed their lack of concern for their fellow students. It is true in a fact that the bookstore does make money, but the Students for Change would have you believe that this money is wasted or not carefully used. I'm glad to tell you that any money which is made by the bookstore goes right back to the students through activities that the students enjoy and participate in. "From the May 1 issue of THE TELESCOPE in which the first Students for Change article appeared, one gets the feeling that Students for Change are advocating the destruction or at least elimination of the ASB. For a point of information, if this cause does not have a functioning ASB it stands the greatest possibility of losing its accreditation, which is coming up for renewal next fall. Major points in the Students for Education platform include : "1) Fair and equal opportunity for all students at Palomar; 2) More effective and relative student government through concern for all students and their problems; 3) Hopeful end or at least diminishing to apathy of student government; 4) Student government which can not only represent the student but also help the student; 5) Student government which insures equal opportunities for education for all students: 6) Student gove rnment which is not interested in the destruction of an effective government but one which is interested in serving all aspects of students on campus; 7) Student government which can insure the freedoms and liberties which our students enjoy at Palomar, such as: freedom of s peech, freedom of the press, and a right to voice your opinions; 8) Student government which is interested in serving and representing you the student of Palomar College. "
Approximately 25 0 Palomar students boycotted classes Wednesday and participated in an "open mike" dialog on the Vietnam War, held in the free speech area. Students express ing both pro and antiwa r feelings began speaking at 9:30a.m. and continued until the demonstration ended at noon. Some 30 s tudents left campu s at ll:30 a.m. to attend an Encinitas march from San Dieguito High School through town to the Encinitas Sheriff's Substation, in protest of police brutality. Among those who spoke to the crowd was instructor Peter Bollington of the English department. He said , "What would it take for you to immolate yourself? I think of George Morrison, who burned himself to death in 1965 and George Winne, the UCSD student who immolated himself this week. And I ask m yself, why? Perhaps it isn't too far. fetched to think that they were dramatizing the reality of what is taking place in Cambodia and Saigon. People are burning to death. "We sit on the lawn listening. What kind of a meaningful action can I take on this day? The only one who can answer that questio n is you. What we are doing today is to exam ine the issues , problems in front of us now. I feel very good about what is happening today ... we can open ourselves up---that is education." Following Bollington's address, instructor Paul Jacques went to the mike and said, "My fe llow inhabitants of earth. My response to Nixon's plan is complete repulsion, frustration, and finally anger. If we were to pull out of Vietnam, some of the money might be used to eradicate problems in this society. Is it not violence when students are shot and bayoneted? Is it not violence when Black P anthers are murdered ? Is it not violence when protestors are clubbed and brutalized? What is more violent? Another student speaker said, " The war---it's going to happen. How are you going to have peace in the world when you don't have peace in yours e lf? You guys are a bunch of hypocrites. How can you help others when you haven't
helped yourself. There's a revolution taking place in the United States. The whole thing can be stopped with love. There's not one peace march that is going to accomplish anything without love." Yet another speaker said, "It's nice to talk of peace and love, but if you think back. . . in 1966 we were all being peaceful. . . we got our heads cracked and the war went on. We wasted 1969 thinking that Nixon was really going to do something about it. War cannot be stopped peaceably. We cannot end the war here--it must be brought to an end in the streets." Instructor Dick Peacock addressed the crowd, saying, "There has been a significant number of people who have experienced police brutality. This kind of action is all too typical of America today--it's part of the history of America. We've seen it at Kent. . But there comes a point when we must say, 'Get off our backs'. We are going to Encinitas today to show them that we can peaceably assemble. We will not be intimidated. We will not be harassed. If that's what America is all about , you have to question whether it's worth it. " Have the guts to skip a class . . . to go to a movie about the war . . . if a teacher gives you an F for the day, so what. . . it is the least we can do. Some people are getting their arms blown off. This is one day when we can stand up and do something. " Soon after Peacock's speech a caravan of cars formed in front of the college and students were invited over the mike to attend the march in Encinitas. Ten cars made up the caravan, and approximately 30 Palomar students joined some 250 marchers in a peaceful trek through the streets of Encinitas to the sheriff's station, and then on to a rally at Moonlight Beach. Speakers at the rally included Dick Peacock, Peace and Freedom candidate for 80th district assemblyman, Francis Halpern, Peace and Freedom congressional candidate for the 35th district, and Reverend William Coates, chaplain of UCSD.
