Fame and fortune may be yours. A collection of poetry and prose for preliminary consideration in Bravura, Palomar's literary magazine, is now taking place. All e ntries should be taken to Mr. Arthur Wilks' office, P-8H.
to Dr. Lyle M. Stanford of the College of Idaho, Mr. Elliott's duties will include lecturing on the subjects of reef formation, tropical plant families, ecology and birds, besides managing all aspects of transportation while in Australia.
Commenting on the purpose of this trip, Elliott stated, "We hope to accomplish two objectives: One being the intensive study of plants and animals of the Brisbane area, with an emphasis on the Barrier Reef, and secondly we would like to gain some knowledge of the history and sociology of Australia along with a taste of the character of the people.'' The Great Barrier Reef area was chosen because it represents the least altered region of its kind in the world. Travelling in leased cars and by train, the expedition will, "work with and use the facilities of the University of Queensland primarily at the research station on Heron Island," said Elliott. The class will camp out in public campgrounds when possible and do their own cooking in order to save on expenses. As an added benefit of this trip, Elliott would like to take a large amount of pictures, both 35mm and movies. If possible, he will also collect specimens to send back to other instructors.

All students planning on transferring to any California State College for the fall semester of 1971 must have their application postmarked by November 30 at the latest. Students still planning to file an application for next fall at any state college are also advised that the Palomar counselling office has run out of applications and they therefore must be obtained from a state college in the area. They are available at San Diego State. According to Mr. Robert L. Burton, dean of student personel services, "San Diego State will not be able to accept all students who apply for admission. Some students may be disappointed unless they meet San Diego State requirements for transfer." This deadline date is important for all state colleges due to the rapid growth of students applying for admission. Deadline for California State scholarships is December 3. Students may secure applications in the counselling office and will receive directions and further information there.
Mr. Fred Elliott, biology instructor, will take a leave of absense next semester to accompany a group of s tudents
to the Australian Barrier Reefs. He will serve as lecturer for the trip sponsored by College of Id aho. McDaniel photo
In the past Elliott has participated in five Mexican expeditions sponsored by the College of Idaho. He feels, however, that the Australian trip will be an especially interesting experience. "Since I have never been to Australia and neither has the majority of the participants, we will all be learning together."
