Make hunting fair "Hunting is the sport of cap turin;; or killing wild animals. At one time, man cou ld get hi s food onl y if h e hunted for it.

In this age of eq u a lity , w e h ave become awa r e of t h e plights o f suc.:h groups as women, blacks, chi ca nos and th e poor. But what about a nim a ls? Sin ce th e beginning of time, humans have tracked down, s la ught er ed, and genera ll y exploited a nimals in th e nam e of sport. Hunting for food is one thing; killing for fun is quite a noth er.

KSM-Radio Free Palomar liberates lunchtime boredom Take heart , you citizens b ehind the Eucalyptus Curtain; soon you will be hearing a welcome voice. Right now, dedicated people are working to bring you the latest musi c and information from the world around you, nam e l y Palomar College. Soon, as you sit in your dreary lunch halls munching on food rations, you will sit up and take notice, and your heart will warm as you hear a new sound. No, it' s not another case of heartburn from those greasy food rations, but the sound of Radio Free Palomar! KSM airs soon Acting as a beacon in the night, Radio Free Palomar will serve to light the way for your lunchtime activities , while performing its duty of keeping you entertained and informed. No longer will you need to b e subjected to the propaganda from the present regime of El Jukebox; Radio Free Palomar is close at hand. Seriously, folk , our campus is finally going to have a radio station. KSM, as it is usually better known, will begin operation April 5. Last week , Th e Telescope erroneously printed April I as the sign-on date. No that wasn't a bad April Fool's joke, but a change in schedule due to " technical difficulties." Remember those surveys you may have filled out last semester which began with the blatantly optimistic statement, " Palomar is going to have a radio station . . . "? These were designed to get your reaction to the station , your tastes in music, and your preferences in radio stations. Keeping strictly in accor-
dance with the results of th e surveys, KSM has established a format described as " fre e form ." It will be mostly music, consisting mainly of various forms of rock music. The disc jockeys will all be students , and they will not shout, make weird noises , or try to come across as a Top 40 d.j. In other words, they will speak softly and carry a big stack .. . of records. Suggestions welcomed There will be few commercials, and some campus news and sports. The staff of KSM does n ' t plan to leave it at that. If you have any suggestions, compliments, or gripes, drop them in the suggestion box which will be made available n ear the Student Union. That's how it stands now for KSM. By the way, they still need a logo (an artistic design to identify the station, using
the stations call letters), and are encouraging art students or anyone who wants to try to submit designs to Russell Jackson's mailbox in the campus mailroom. There won't be any monetary benefit, just the pride of having your artwork identified with the ca mpu s radio station. Won't sound professional KSM , the logical step in the media chain for a s t ea dil y growing campus , will begin operation within the n ext few weeks . Don ' t expect a professional sounding station at first; keep in mind it will be the first time as a disc jockey for most of these students. I think we should listen with an open mind, and be proud we have yet another means of identifying Palomar as a vital institution. Besides, we have to keep the airways free from th e evil menace of El Jukebox.
To the Editor: I wish to thank you, your staff, and especially Rebecca Ballard for the kind article today. We are proud of Palomar's new archaeology program and are delighted to see it publicized.
reference to their country as a "B-grade Hollywood movie." What I said was that seeing old U .S. surplus tanks manned by Colombian soldiers in Bogota reminded me of B-grade Hollywood war movies. I was only describing a fleeting image that brought me back to my childhood when many Saturday mornings were spent at local movie houses. I have great respect and warm feelings for Colombians and would not intentionally insult them. Dr. Dennis O'Neil
Unfortunately, Rebe cca went a little too far in her first few par'agraphs. I would appreciate it if you would publish a partial retraction in your next issue. The Colombians are, correctly, a proud people and would take offense at

Palomar baseball loses to Citrus,4-1 Things returned to normal for the Comet baseball team Tuesday as their two game winning streak was snapped by Citrus, 4-1 on the Owls' home field . Palomar had won consecutive games over San Diego City, H-0 a nd Saddleback, 4-:l thanks to some brilliant pitching by Paco (ionzalez and Don Muren. Tomorrow the Comets travel to Chaffey for a 1 p.m. game. Against C itrus , Palomar fee l behind, 2-0 in the first inning as Comet starter Randy Long was the victim of a two run homer. The Owls added solo runs in the fifth and eighth, with the latter also a homerun. Palomar's lon e run scored as Hill Eiland reached second on an error by the Citrus left fielder. Eiland then scampered to third on a fielder 's c hoi ce and scored on a sacrifice fl y by Tab Yetzer. Palomar's hitting , which had been productive of late, slipped as the Comets could manage only four singles and double. Comet coach Jim Clayton feels his two righthanders , Go nzal ez and Muren , have performed well for his team this season. " I'd h ave to say Paco and Don have been our top pitchers this season," Clayton said. "Paco threw his best game of the seaso n against SDCC. "Paco's best when h e keeps the ball down and throws strikes. The secret to his success is his control. He's got a good fastball a nd curve but he still has to learn to pitch and not throw. "I'd say Muren and Gonzalez both have major college potential , " Clayton concluded. Palomar' s win over SDCC has been their most impressive this season. Gonzalez tossed a four hitter and Dana Smith contributed three hits and three runs batted in. Comet catcher Dick Diamond, who caught Gonzalez's gem , fee ls the little righthander is just rounding into form. "He's just coming back from an injury," Diamond said. "His control was better than it has been in the past. It seemed like he got stronger as he went along. "His most effective thing was his changing speeds and throwing his curve for strikes," Diamond concluded. Diamond agreed with Clayton in that control is the secret to Gonzalez's game. "The big thing was that he was throwing strikes," Diamond said. Clayton plans to throw a lefthander against Chaffey tomorrow. " I'll throw either Long or Somers because Chaffey's got a lot of leftha-nd batt;ers," Clayton said.

SWIMMING
Mowrey leads Comet win After downing Southwestern, 6440 last Friday, the Comet swim team readies itself for the Mission Con: ference meet at San Bernardino, April 9. "We're aiming toward th eco nference meet," Comet coach Don Hubbard said. " We've got a chance at the title. I'd have to consider it between Saddleback, Riverside, and us, but it's hard to say who'll win." Hubbard named Mark Mowrey as his team's top performer against Southwestern.
Netters top SDSU; lose to SFSU, 6-3 Still holding first place in the league, the women's tennis team lost its first match of the season, 6-3, when it faced San Francisco State University in a non-league match last Saturday. , _ l-lowever, the feam also scored its biggest .victory last week over San Diego State University 's B team. The Comets; winning all six singles matches, won 7-1. It was the first loss for SDSU, the defending county champions. "This was probably our biggest victory ever. The amazing thing is that no cine knows for sure when SDSU was last beaten," Coach Nan Haug-en said. The team travels to Mesa on Thursday for a league match at 2:30 p . m. A rem at c h with SF S U i splanned for April 3 when the team will fly to San Francisco.
Mowrey, a freshman from Poway High, finished with firsts in the 500 free and the 1000 free while being named the Comet's outstanding performer and most improved swimmer. Mowrey feels that Hubbard 's coaching has been the answer to his improvement. "Coach's workouts and the new diet he's got me on have been the difference,"· Mowrey said. "I've lost six or seven pounds and I can feel the difference. "Since the Riverside meet (March 5), I've cut 50 seconds off my 1000 free time. I'm going for the school record in both events. I'm only 2 seconds off in the 500 mark and 10 seconds off in the 1000." Ot_her top performers included Glenn McCloskey, 'Brent Krantz , and the 400 medley relay. McCloskey, former CIF diving champion at Oceanside High, set a new school mark with a score of 235.75 points -breaking Joe Sietz's record of 213.6 set just two weeks ago. "Glenn does national championship quality dives , so if he has a good day his point total really goes up," Hubbard said. Krantz finished with firsts in the 200 individual medley a,nd the 200 fly, while also swimming a leg in the 400 medley relay. The 400 medley relay qualified for the state meet while setting a school record with a time of3:54.2. Team members included Dwayne Bodwell, Dave Delano, Krantz, and Miles Lundquist.
Led by J effKennedy and Luc LaFerriere , the Comet track team upped their conference mark to :l-1 by downing Southwestern 98 1/c-46 1 " last Friday on the Palomar track . · Today the Comets travel to Saddleback for a 3 p.m. meet. Co met coac h Doc Marrin was pleased with hi s team 's showing but felt compassion for Southwestern. "They a r e a stronger team than they showed, " Marrin said. " It probably could ' ve been closer but they had a lot of unfortunate things happen to them before the meet. They lost some of their top performers because of injuries and it showed." Palomar placed first in 10 of the 17 events with ties occurring in the high jump and mile relay . The Comets top performers were Kennedy , LaFerriere, Fernando Serrato and Curt C l ark with Kennedy and LaFerriere each setting meet marks in their respective events. Kennedy ran a 14.5in the 120 high hurdles, breaking the record of 14.6 set in 1969 and LaFerriere broke the javelin mark with a toss of 216-2. Serrato placed first in the three mile as he clocked in at 14:56.4, with the second place finisher some 30 seconds behind. Clarke helped the Comets achieve a tie in the mile relay as he picked up a good four or five steps on the Southwestern anchor man , in running a lifetim e best of 50.3 in his quarter inile.
Raquetball available for student use Those who wish to take off extra pounds or just enjoy themselves are invited to visit Palomar's eight new racquetball courts located just north of the pool. Cost is $1 per hour per court and the user must provide a ll his own equipment.
It is strongly suggested that those who wish to use the courts make reservations because the courts have proved popular and are usually full . Reservations can be made one day in advance by calling 744-1150, ext. 331, 9 - 10 a.m., weekdays.
