Photo Lab changes to end crowding Changes are under way in the Photo Lab to alleviate the problems of overpopulation and limited space. "What we really need here is a space program." remarked Justus Ahrend, act-· ing chairman of Communications, with exploring eyes and a diligent smile. By knocking down a wall here and adding one there, the Photo Lab has managed to enlarge the picture, but not by much. Due to an all-time registration enrollment, regular-size lecture classes are being doubled and the teachers share cramped quarters . Where F-26, a 20 x 30footclassroom, once existed a $1200 studio is now under development. This will be used for shooting portraits and indulging in other productive work in the near future .

The three main emphases of the TV/ Radio Program are: One-To prepare a person to go on to a four year college to continue to study Radio and TV. Two-To provide production a nd performance training for those going into the TV and radio industry. The ROP program emph-asizes the technical use of the equipment and TV technology classes taught by Hawkes are concerned more with the history of radio and TV and performance in front of cameras and other telecommunications equipment. Three - To have a general introduction and understanding of radio and T V production, even for those going into othe r fields . Next semeste r Palomar will be add ing a TV workshop and a radio works hop. "Palomar is unique in as much as it is probably one of the few community colleges in California which offers both the technical operations and productiondirection in its curriculum," explained Hawkes. "This would certainly provide the Palomar graduate with added advantages as either a transfer student or a prospective employee."

Such areas as diet, exercise, rest, recreation and mental attitudes will be studied by experts in a wide range of fields including medicine health, physical education, oiology and physiology of
exercise . The latest scientific equipment are used in testing each pupil. On Monday students attend a lecture in P - 32, while either Wednesday or Friday is rese r ved for small group discussions.
