Small group sessions are to be held to cover individually the objectives of the workshop. The basic aim is to explore the self-image concept, especially how the learner's feelings affect achieveme nt and how communication could improve motivation, and subsequently, achievement. Individual methods of teaching might be viewe d as a part for feedback of the teacher-learner relationship . Positive reactions from participants were received at the close of the First Teacher-Learner Communication Workshop held in November, 1970, and January, 1971. Mrs. Shirley E.

ONLY FEMALE BOARD MEMBER

Mrs. Bayne leads active life Lucy Bayne holds the position ofbeing the only female member on the Governing Board. A token woman perhaps ? Most definitely not. Mrs. Bayne has proven to be a most well-qualified and extremely active member of the most important association of Palomar. In a recent interview, Mrs. Bayne revealed herself to be a very talented and colorful personality. Born in Massachusetts , Mrs. Bayne grew up in the East and was educated in the finest schools. She attended the famous Girl's Latin School and Radcliffe college, where she studied Greek and Latin. "While attending Radcliffe, I babysat, tutored, edited manuscripts, and won scholarships in order to finance myself. "I also went to the Faelton Piano Forte Conservatory of Music in Boston. My parents wanted me to be a concert pianist, but I wanted to be either a doctor or a figureskater. That was until I got my skate caught in a rut and I went around but the skate stayed put." Mrs. Bayne recalled the times when she was doing graduate work at Harvard in philology. "I was the only female in my classes. It was tough going, since everybody made sure I would meet the standards, but of course I had no trouble getting dates! "When I was teaching, I met my present hus band by flunking his daughter in Latin. He came in to find the problem, but we never got around to discussing her work." The animal kingdom holds a particular place with Lucy Bayne. Teaching

Latin and zoology for seven years gave her opportunities to concentrate on her special interest in wildlife. "I've always been fascinated by animals, ever s ince I was a little girl bringing home cats, snakes, birds, snails and worms. I have some delightful animal stories, enough material for several children's books. I'd like to write one if I ever get any time. "When I lived in the East, we had a home on an island six miles at sea. I was extremely interested in the shore birds of the area: ospreys, gulls, sandpipers , loons, dovekies (migrations), etc. "I'd also like to have some time to concentrate on the west coast seabird.''

aside our funds for art purchases.'' However, besides art and music, Mrs. Bayne has a variety of hobbies. She listed them, beginning with people and continuing with animals, reading, travel, storing odd bits of information and enjoying life day by day. A lady of many interests and abilities, Mrs . Bayne is involved in the Fine Arts Society, the Zoologica l Society, the AAUW, the UN Association, the Opera (Continued on page two)

PE proposal rejected In another vote, a motion by Kornhaus er to remove present requirements for Physical Education was defeated,3-2, with Lucy Bayne and Kornhauser the only board members voting for the measure. In taking action, the board bypassed the recommendation of the administrative council, whose proposal had earned support from both the faculty senate and the student government. The administrative plan would have r emoved the current requirements of Health Education and American Institutions for the AA degree by Spring, 1974 and would have elimi nated the present PE activity course requirement. Prior to the voting, some of the board members expressed their viewpoints. Initially, Dr . Simson suggested the year's delay in changing any r equirements, so that a procedure to study the legal aspects of the PE requirements could be established. Currently, there is a question concerning a section of the State Education Code pertai ning to PE. While no final decision has been made, the opinions of various counsels have diffe red as to whether the removal of the PE requirement would be legal. Other members comment After acknowledging agreement with 路Dr. Simson, Milo Shadle then proposed the formation of an ad hoc committee, a committee he hoped would represent community interests as well as students and college personnel. Earlier, Kornhauser had said he supported the Health and American Institutions requirements , but also favored the removal of the PE mandation. At this time, he put his suggestions into a motion for a vote. During the meeting, the students, faculty, administration and various com-

"When we were first married, my husband and I would read aloud to each other in the 路 evening. We had a book of Shakespeare that was printed in English on one side and German on the other. My husband is originally from Hamburg and he r ead in English while I read in German.

Dr. Joseph Gordon, representing the Social Science Department, then spoke. saying "it is a reasonable requirement to have the student be exposed to certain areas." He then asked the board to maintain the present standards. ASG representatives present The ASG was represented by Acting President Ken McLean and Student Assembly Chairman Steve Henderson. "It is the right of the individual to choose his own destination," Henderson said. ''I do feel the board has the right to set standards for the AA degree," he added. "But, I do not think requirements should be imposed on the student who is not seeking a degree." Other people making comments included William Bedford, Milt Letterman, Rita White and Mike Curran. Bedford, speaking for the faculty senate, said it was the feeling of students, faculty and others that a one year delay in changing mandations was acceptable. He emphasized the compromise, presented by the administrative council proposal, was not a compromise in principles, but instead an agreementgivingthe affected departments time to s trengthen and make adjustments. Curran disagrees Later, however, health instructor Mike Curran contended the agreement was simply "a compromise between warring parties." Letterman , president of the Palomar College Quarterback Club, asked the board to consider the feeling of the entire community before changing any requirements . Recognizing the need for different requirements for the student seeking the AA degree and those who are not was the idea stressed by Mrs. White, an art instructor.

Mrs. Lucy Bayne

munity members in attendance expressed a variety of opinions. Discussion concerning mandation began when college president Frederick Huber introduced the administrative council's proposal. He noted that the plan was a compromise that represented a consensus of the students and the faculty.

I News at a Glance I Iris Sankey, candidate for the State Senate from the 38th district, will speak in the Free Speech area today at 11 a.m. She is being sponsored by the Young Democrats.

From animals to art, her avocations are varied. She once owned an art gallery in Beverly Hills. Both Baynes were enthusiastic collectors and had acquired paintings, drawings, and sculptures, so the gallery was a "natural." Hence, the Lucy Bayne Gallery to keep Lucy occupied and out of mischief.

"We would correct each other's mistakes and whenever we would catch one, we'd fine one another a dime, quarter or half dollar. Saving that money, we had by the end of a year $350. With it of course, we bought a painting. This was a 'painless' and fun way to set

In order to give further study to the course requirements at Palomar, the Board of Governors voted unanimously last Tuesday to continue the current mandations through the 1973-74 school year. At the same time, the board decided to establish an ad hoc committee to examine the requirements and exemptions at Palomar. This committee will be seeking community response as well as input from students and college personnel. In addition, the board, acting on motions by m e mber Richard Kornhauser, indicated that following next year, it would favor requiring both Health Education and American Institutions for all students with nine or more units, not just those seeking the AA degree. Board president Anton Simson cast the only dissenting vote concerning these proposals.

Newman Club, a Catholic youth group, will be having a Mass today. Meetings are held Fridays at 11 a .m. ln P-7. All interested students are invited.
