Although some students may be responsible for damage to the garden and its plants, the society feels that younger children as well as non-students are involved. Plants have been destroyed and others stolen. Vandalism and thievery have always been present, but in the past year have worsened, according to Mrs . Wollrich. The cost of the fence is estimated at $2,500 by Dr. John Schettler, assistant college superintendent. Trustees have asked for a report on the problem before making a decision.

Stop dog racing Proponents of the Greyhound Racing Ballot Initiative are striving to legalize betting on dog races in California. Petitions are being circulated, and an important question is being raised. Should greyhound racing be legalized? We feel that greyhound racing is, at best, a dubious sport with a deadly potential. Small animals (rabbits, cats, etc.) are often illegally used as bait during dog races. Enough reasons exist for the continued ban on dog racing. These are : 1. The California racing initiative promises to prohibit cruelty to animals. That's all well and good, but the laws that promise to ban cruelty are virtually unenforceable, and only carry misdemeanor penalties, such as $50 finesmere slaps on the wrist. 2. Advocates of the initiative also say that "organized crime is not attracted to greyhound racing, as they are to other sports ." Probes have been done to look into the connection between organized crime and dog racing. These probes cost the taxpayers' money. In Arizona, the state legislature appropriated $100,000 to fund such a pro be. And according to the Sacramento Bee editorial, January 19,1975, "the fact is that California had legalized betting on greyhound races in the 1930's and it became so corrupt that it was discontinued. And there is ample reason to believe racketeers and hoodlums would again try to move in on dog racing if betting were legalized." 3. If a greyhound isn't fast enough, he doesn't live. Every year in F1orida alone, some 1,500 greyhounds are put to death because they don't win races. ~short, we are against legalizing dog racing because it constitutes cruelty to animals, it would increase the cost of appropriate law enforcement, and it would give organized crime another toy to play with. If you've already signed the dog racing petition, don't worry. Getting it on the ballot will make sure more information is available on the subject.

Happy Mother's Day, Mom with love from Moey and me
This Mothers' Day I would like to send my deepest sympathy to those unfortunate, misguided, "liberated" women who think that motherhood goes hand-in-hand with imprisonment. It's a real tragedy to see the number of women who feel unfulfilled in their roles as mothers and feel a need to leave their small children in the care of others as they go out to persue a "more creative" career. What career would be more creative than raising a child? Or more challenging? Or more rewarding? Too many people look upon motherhood as a dead-end street lined with dirty diapers, 2 a .m. feedings and runny noses. Have those people never watched a 3-year-old swell with pride at throwing a rubber ball three feet? Have they never seen the loneliness a mother experiences on her child's first day of kindergarten? (It doesn't have to be relief that he's finally out of the house most of the day.) Have they never seen the pride in that same mother's eyes when that kindergartener graduates from high school? Of course motherhood isn't all sunny days and picnics, but a good mother can make any day sunny for her family and for herself. It's all in her attitude. I'm very thankful for my mother who sacrificed so much for me. I'll never forget the days when I would come home from school and slam the door just as Mom was taking the first pan of cookies from the oven. We never had much money in those days, but the time Mom
spent baking cookies meant much more to us than any paycheck she could bring home from a full-time job. Mom spent a lot of time and money sewing cute little playclothes for us and our Barbie . dolls while she went without a new dress for Easter. We had such good times , Mom and I. I remember when my older sister started kindergarten. I was so disappointed that I had to stay home all day, but Mom made home more fun than school could possibly be. We would read stories together, play games, and make all sorts of crazy little things. The three of us. That's right, the three of us. No mention of my early childhood would be complete without including my invisible friend, Moey. Moey and I did
To the Editor: I was Quite shocked to read your editorial in the April 2 edition of The Telescope. lt surprises me to see that people can be so much against religion. From reading your editorial, I realized that you misunderstood the whole purpose of the presentation and would like to find out the reasons you are so against that sort of presentation. First, I feel it would be important to inform you that nothing was sold and for that matter forced onto anyone. This was an instructional presentation, leaving the stu-
everything together. Except mischief, which Moey usually did alone. But Mom knew how to handle Moey. When we flew to Hawaii, she just pushed poor Moey out of the plane. I guess I should add that we found her again in the airport in Hawaii. Moey's a good swimmer. Moey and I have been a lot of trouble since the day we discovered each other, but Mom knew how to handle us -with love. She was always there when we needed her; we never had to depend on a day care center or babysitter to provide the things we needed. My mom showed me that motherhood is a creative, challenging, and rewarding adventure, not a stifling deadend. Happy Mother's Day, Mom.
dent his own free agency to listen or to ignore the presentation as he wished. We were not out trying to "sell" our beliefs or ideas. It doesn't work that way and never will. We won't force our religion on anyone. What we presented came from God, it is truth. We won't force you to accept it, but it is our responsibility to tell youand we will. Please don't condemn what we have until examining and seeing what it really is. We would really appreciate that. Sincerely yours, Stephen Portlock

First in the nation
Dedication leads to speech success It takes 10 months for the speech team to come together, according to coach Ray Dahlin, whose forensics squad really has come together this year. Winning the National Championships in Chicago during Easter vacation capped off the squad's year with its eleventh consecutive sweetstakes win and its third national championship. They won sweepstakes in the national tournament in 1955 and 1970 also. "It all happens at the national tournament," Dahlin said. "That's when it all comes together."
In preparation for the tournament in Chicago, the team competed in 10 sweepstakes tournaments and returned with eight first sweepstakes and two second sweepstakes trophies, along with many individual awards. "When there were sweepstakes awards, the lowest we ever got was second sweepstakes," Dahlin announced proudly. But now that the team has won the nationals, there's nothing left for them to accomplish this year. "Anything else would be an anticlimax," Dahlin said.

There are five more tournaments this spring, but Dahlin's team won't be competing, because of lack of funds. "One tournament (Chicago) took all of the money in the Palomar College Forensics Foundation," Dahlin said. "We really didn't have the money to go , but we went anyway." The team will spend the spring raising funds and preparing for next year. Despite the fact that many of the team 's best speakers will not be returning to Palomar next year, Dahlin believes.that "next year will be just as good as any other year." New squad members are invited from speech fundamentals classes. "We can't recruit," Dahlin said. "We have nothing to offer." The four-year colleges and universities do recruit, and their coaches often approach Palomar squad
members at tournaments. So far, none of the speakers have made definite plans to accept any of those offers. One thing that attracts these recruiters to Dahlin's students is their versatility. "We have a half dozen people that could go into six different event s and win ," Dahlin said. Palomar speakers are forced to be versatile by limited funds . If a speaker competes in only one event and is eliminated early in the tournament, it is expensive to keep the student for the rest of the tournament, because motel and meal bills pile up even though the student isn't competing. Dahlin credits dedication as the reason for the team's success, as well as their closeness. "We're like the Charlie Manson family," he said. "We're close together."

Page leads archers to National Palomar College's archers will join 42 other colleges and universitites in the United States Nationals May 13-15 at Cocoa Beach, 1<1a. Olympic hopeful Scott Page will lead the Comets, which finished the season with a 15-1 record and qualified for the nationals b; placing second in the mens , womens and mixed teams divisions in the state meet. Coach Mildred Ayers says, "We have been shooting quite well lately and our mens' team should place in the top four schools. Our womens ' team only placed third in our con-
ference but they came on strong and took a second in the state." In the battle for the Southern California archery championship, host California State University at ws Angeles edged Palomar College in all three divisions last Tuesday. At the same time , both schools also posted wins over Mt. San Antonio College as part of the dualmatch. Palomar closed its league schedule with a 14-1 record in mens' and mixed team competition and a 13-2 mark in women's shooting . Scott Page led the Comet men's team as he totaled 810 points to place second.
â&#x20AC;˘ Track places second 1n league Hurdler Jeff Kennedy highlighted a pleasant weekend for the Palomar track team as the Comet runners took second at last Friday's Omference Finals in Balboa Stadium . Kennedy set a new school record in the 120 high hurdles with a blistering 14.1 second run and still had enough to win the 400 meter intermediate hurdle event. Comet Coach Doc Marrin said he was very pleased with the team performance and noted that Palomar was firmly in control of second place. "We were alone in second. We weren't close to first and third wasn't close to us." Marrin's team ran well enough to send 17 men to the Southern California Prelims at Mt. Sac May 15. Gaining valuable points for the Comets was the 440 yard relay team of Mike Edmonds, Per Reinholtz, Hokan Bjork, and Steve Martin, which equaled the school record of 42.3 which was good for second place. Mike Crosby, Bjork, Kennedy (49.8) and Reinholtz (49.1) took second in the mile relay event with a 3:21.2. Backing up the strong Comet running team were Jerry Davis,
second in the javelin at 187-7, John Powell fourth in the discus at 143-0 and Jay Semensow fourth in the shot put with a 46-6.

the fourth when they scored three unearned runs to take the lead for good. With two outs, Randy Johnson reached ¡ base on an error. Dave Fonseca followed with a single to right and Doug McPhail singled scoring Johnson with the go ahead run, 4-3. Dana Smith singled to load the bases and Christman delivered a double to right scoring two runs putting the Comets ahead for good, 6-3. With just three games remaining, the Comets are fighting to make the playoffs in the Southern Division of the Mission Conference. "The playoffs are still in the distance," Coach Jim Clayton said. "We're one game out of second place with three games to go." Clayton feels that Saturday's game against San Bernardino may mean the season for his team. "It'll be our biggest game of the season," Clayton said. "The pressure is on them too. They're fighting to make the playoffs in the northern division. It's a big game."
