Student coalition wins seven seats in assembly election
With dialogue in seven dialects, Palomar College has virtually set itself the ascent of the accents in produ c ing John P atrick' s drama "The Hasty Heart." The script contains four distinct British acce nts, an Australian, a New Zeala nd e r, and, of course an American. Casting thi s nine part, seven accent play. director Buddy Ashbrook had a stroke of luck finding visiting New Zealander Malcolm Pullman. Malcolm is a natural for the part of Kiwi, the wounded New Zealand soldier and also having spent some time in Australia was able to ass ist with the acce nt of Digger, the Australian. With authe ntic accents for these two roles the balance of the cast have used tape recordings. r eco r ds, and plenty of s tud y to pick up an assortment of two diffe rent middle class Engli sh acce nts, plus Scottish and Cockney. Eve n the Am erican accent isn'tplayed str aight. Yank stutters a nd s tammers in a southe rn accent as part of his characterization. The play takes part in a Briti s h Military Hospital in Far East Asia during WWII. Life at the hos pita l is disrupte d with the introduction of a cantankerous confused but very proud Scott. This part is take n by Don Krout in hi s second major rol e at Palomar. The only fe male . that of a s toic English nurs e, is portrayed by Dawn Sheppa rd. It is he r second stage appearance in a m ed ical role. having previou s ly acted the part of the nurs e in "Antigo ne." The remaining characters are also military personel, five of them being wound ed soldiers from many different countries. An orderly and surgeon in command complete the cast. A Scotti s h soldier with only a s hort tim e to live stubbornly refuses to r es po nd to the sympa thetic trea tm ent bes towed upon him by well-meaning friends. Directed by Buddy As hbrook, "The Hasty Heart" will run from November 1-3 and 8-10 . Eac h performance will begin at 7:30p .m.

Financial Aids consultant J , Frank Hankin (L), discusses aid practices and
procedures with student Jim Me Lemore. one of many s tud e nts aided financially.
Careful budgeting allows more students to receive financial aid Scores of s tud en ts on campus a r e ind ebted for financial assistance they have r eceived from the F inanci al Aid s office. headed by J, F rank Hankin. "On an over-all basis." sa id Hankin, "the financial a id s office is working with a S48. 000 deficit of funds this year as compared to 19 72- 73." This pro blem is a ugm e nted by the fact that there are more applicants for financial a id this yea r . The r e are approximatel y 50 appli cants who have not be e n evalu ated because of the fund shortage. "A l1 is not lost. howeve r ," said Hanki n . "Due to careful budgeting, 197 3-74 fi na ncial ass istance has been awarded to more Palomar recipients then ever before.~
Las t year money was returned to the Federal Government because of pe ople
dropping out of c lasses. To make sure a ll the funds will be used . Ha nkin keeps a watchful eye on r ecipients r ece iving aid. seeing tha t they pe r form and demonstrate that they do in fac t need the assis ta nce. Also . Financial Aids is s tri c ter with r ec ipi e nts who withdraw fr om c lasses . by terminating the ir a id. thu s he lping other stud e nts with the funds not used. "When a s tud ent at the beginning of the yea r qualifies. he usually qualifies for a large r amount than th e ones on the wai tin g li st. After a few months pass thi s student uses one -third of the aid. then he's fi ni shed . This leaves two-thirds of the money left in the program. "The new stud e nt coming into the program does not necessari ly need that two-th i rds, because he a lready has his books . a nd is set up in a lot of his needs. What he is looking for is a spec ialty. Then this two - thirds in the progr am can go to two other dese rving s tud e nts r equiring the lesser amount. "This is how by careful budgeting." Hankin says. "we can stretch the money a lot further." Hankin ho lds a !\lasters in Physical Education from the L'nive rsity of Utah . and a Certificate Degree in Counse ling.
