Mideast film four set for Monday premiere William Stockdale will present his new full-length color motion picture, Israel and Sinai in person in P-32 Monday at 2 p.m. and 7 :30 p.m. under the sponsorship of Palomar Community Services . This uncommon tour of Israel begins with a walking exploration of the Old City of Jerusalem and a special walk, albeit precarious, atop the wall itself. A visit to Mt. Zion follows where attendance at a Bar Mitzvah reveals an Orthodox Jewish rock band which has attracted worldwide attention. The film shows both familiar and unfamiliar aspects of the Eternal City, from craft-working to a visit to the strict religious sector of Mea Shearim where a sleeveless dress results in a warning ticket for indecent exposure! Switching from walking to travel in a $14,000 Rabbit (actual price in Israel) the fi lm next explores the sensitive northern border to the snows of Mt. Hermon and the source of the Jordan lli ver. Also a stay at a kibbutz shows life in a communal colony. Bethlehem, Nazareth, and the Galilee region are shown as well as the new Jewish settlements in the West Bank. Viewers will ride an Israeli train, see Israel's most beautiful waterfall, see the secret shrine of the Druse sect, and visit the dwindling community of Samaritans. Also included is a demonstration of police work by Israeli dogs, and their training for pursuit of criminals, searching out drugs -all the while barking vigorously in Hebrew. The highlight of the film is exploration of the Sinai Desert. Leavin g the highway and traveling in a six-wheel-drive army command car, sleeping on the sand at night and avoiding mine fiel ds by day, following dry river beds to an occasional oasis and Bedouin camp provide high excitement a n d unforgettable scenery. Finally, arrival at the base of Mt. Sinai, and a climb to the top to stand where God delivered the Ten Commandments to Moses, provide a dramatic climax to the film .

Manuel Alvarado, Cheryl Grant and Nonie Bradley. A proposed constitutional amendment was also on the ballot, which dealt with reducing the required number of units maintained by the legislators from 12 to six. "The reason for this is that the average number of units taken by the student body is seven, and not many students want to take a full schedule just so they can run for ASG," explains ASG president Greg Heffernan. Heffernan thought it would have been better if another person would have run for vice-president but "I was happy there were enough legislative candidates on the ballot so we didn't have to appoint anyone." Voter turnout was rather low, having dropped from 2 percent last year to 1.3 percent this semester. "We were going around asking people if they were going to vote, but they didn't seem to take us seriously, just sort of wrote it off," he states.
