in Germany and had arrived at the famed school of music by various routes: Walter Levin, violin, via Israel; Henry Meyer, violin, via a concentration camp and Paris; Peter Kamnitzer, viola, via England. Lee Fiser, cello, joined the group recently. The quartet's special interest in the socalled "New Viennese" school of composers has grown throughout the years. Levin explains, "I think it is terribly important to play contemporary music, if only because it makes such a difference in your understanding of the classic repertoire. In fact, musicians should learn from all kinds of music. Too many I am afraid, keep too narrow of view of their own little world," concluded Levin. When not touring the concert circuit, the quartet is in residence at Cfncilmati" University where they instruct as well as perform. They perform on matched Amati instruments built between 1619 and 1684 and called one of the finest existing sets of matched instruments. The cello formerly belonged to Gregor Piatigorsky.

MIRACOSTA APPROVAL NEEDED

Attendance accord nearing Students at Palomar and MiraCosta Colleges will be allowed to continue to attend the campus they wish if an interdistrict attendance agreement, which is almost certain, is reached between the two colleges. The Palomar College governing board, after making two changes in the agreement submitted to them by MiraCosta trustees, approved it unnamiously last Tuesday. Because of the alterations, a reduction from eight years to one in the agreement between the two schools and the addition of the summer session, the agreement needs only MiraCosta's approval. Palomar trustees did not accept the

July 1, 1976 to June 30, 1984 span the agreement would have been in effect as desired by MiraCosta. Instead, on the urging of trustee Milo Shadle, the board made the accord automatically renewable each year, subject to termination with six months' advance notice, after it takes effect July 1, 1976. Shadle's reasoning was that the board should not "bind" future boards to the accord. Trustee Anton Simson agreed, saying the once a year renewal option "gives us (the board) another dimension of freedom." Frederick Huber, Palomar president,

was uncertain of MiraCosta's reaction, but said San Dieguito residents may view the annual option as "a type of cutoff." The agreement was made primarily on behalf of the San Dieguito Union High School District, which was annexed to the Oceanside-Carlsbad Community College District (Mira Costa) recently by the Board of Govemors of California Community Colleges, despite vehement opposition by San Dieguito citizens. The San Dieguito area has nearly 80 percent of its college students attending Palomar, as opposed to 10 percent at Mira Costa.
