Two openings left 1n European tour Only two more openings are left in the 1971 photography-study tour of Europe, at special reduced student rates. The tour, open to young people of North County, is sponsored by the Photography Instructors Association of So. California in cooperation with the Foreign Study League, a subsidiary of TransAmerica Corporation. Justus W. Ahrend, Palomar photography instructor, is an instructor and counselor for the tour. Ahrend said that high school and junior college students may apply now for the combination photography and comparative culture study tour, which will be limited to 10 students. Application forms may be obtained by telephoning Ahrend at Palomar College. Ahrend said the 42-day trip, from June 24 to August 4, will cover five countries--Italy, Switzerland, Spain, France, a nd England. The jet flight eastbound will be direct from Los Angeles non-stop to Rome where the class will stay for the first 6 days of the study tour. "Emphasis throughout the travel will be on photography,~ Ahrend said, "but
there will also be classroom work, for credit, in some of the schools and colleges of the various countries to be visited. Several meetings are planned before and after the tour and three units of transfer credit will be granted by Palomar College. The broadening of scope, understanding and knowledge of foreign lands and people will be an important objective of the tour program. "The schedule of places to be visited and the instruction procedure are designed to give the serious photography s tud ent new knowledge and ability far beyond mere technique,~ he said, "and the student will be working toward realizing more specific objectives dealing with visual communication. All this will take place against a rich background of history, culture, social institutions and curre nt events in the countries we will visit." The all-inclusive student-rate tuition, air fare and European travel will cover six days in Rome, four days in Florence, eight days in Switzerland, seven days in Paris, eight days in Madrid, and eight days in London, with return to Los Angeles August 4. Ahrend was a photographer-corres-
ponde nt in World War II, covering various European countries, particularly the Mediterranean region, and for one year was based in Rome. He is familiar at first-hand with the countries to be toured during the summer student trip. Ahrend said the class will be accommodated in campus housing in each city to be visited, in attractive and comfortable facilities, and the students will be accompanied throughout the tour by qualified adult instructors and counselors. Ahrend said, "It is advisable that interested parents and prospective members of the tour class inquire now for detailed information on the project, since the class size necessarily has to be limited. I will be glad to supply the information by telephone or in person at my office at Palomar College."
Mexican workshop offered to students
impeached for 'negligence'
"Exitus," an unusual musical experience , will have its world premiere this Sund ay when the concert band will pe r fo rm in the Dome at 3 p.m. Admission will be free. The pi ece was written especially for Larry Livings ton, Palomar concertband director, by Frank McCarty, an Escuudido High graduate, who is presently on the faculty of California State at Fullerton. "Exitus" exploits vocalspeec hsounds produced through musical instruments. This is a n important idea and a great interest to composers. "Exitus" employs various timbric devices such as key rattles, mouth piece pops and improves pe r cussion effects. Another feature is going to be the performance of a relatively new piece by Terry Reily, called "In C." This piece will be co-produced by Pauline Olive rous, one of the foremost composers in the world today. "In C" is a drone piece on the pitch C and involves various rhythmic and m elodic gestures in the key of C. This piece will involve a very unusual arrangement of players around the dome and will involve a new technique in musical pattersition of performance. Miss Oliverous will participate in the performance. Mr. Livingston will be the director of the program which will include a variety of concert band music.

The two lectures will complete a four-lecture series, in which he is describing education and life in England . The May 13 program will feature his readings on the urban scene and on May 27 he will give his impressions of Amer-
ica.
By Lynn Stedd Approximately 100 signatures have been received on petitions currently being circulated on campus to recall all members of the ASG. These pe titions were issued in reaction to a resolution passed by the student assembly supporting legislation which would make the purchase of ASG cards mandatory. This same body chose to impeach three members of the ASG's executive council, T.J. Freeman, former treasurer, Gary Young, former men's select representative and Jeanne Shelby, former women's select r epresentative, during last Friday's meeting. According to Ray Larson, assembly chairman, the three were impeached on the grounds of "neglige nce toward their duties on the council." He added that F r eeman "missed more than three consecutive meetings, (which substantiates negligence according to the constitution), r efused to sign checks and did not call necessary budget committee meetings." Both Young and Shelby also missed more than three consecutive meetings. In r eaction to these charges Freeman stated, "We were boycotting meetings becaus e there is a dictatorship in the student assembly which stops any worthwhile legislation from being enacted. Moreover, it passes a great deal of legislation which is not in the interes t of the students and would not be approved of by the students if they knew about it."
As to the neglect of his duties as treasurer, he s aid, "I wasn't signing checks because the district is simply funneling money through the student government to fund activities which the majority of the studentsdon'tevenparticipate in. They create the illusion that if the ASG does not fund these activities the district will not fund them either and Paloma r will lose its accreditation. "The money the district gives the student government comes from the profits from the 'outrageous' bookstore prices that affect every student on this campus. The student government cannot really look into this problem because the bookstore profits go to them . "This line of thinking regarding the budget is responsible for the student assembly's recent legislation requiring mandatory ASG cards which also affects all the students, even if they don't pa rticipate in any activities." Gary Young, who was appointed by the council to the post of men's select upon Tom Pohle's resignation earlier (Continued on page :l)
