Old library renovation plan in motion

By Chris Reynolds Plans for the renovation of the old library were reviewed by the Board of Trustees at its March 12 meeting.

Architect's plans were laid on the floor of the meeting room that illustrated remodeling plans that are tentatively scheduled to begin some time in April Ultimately, the renovation will produce a building that will house all of student services under one roof.

According to Business Manager Ed Paterson, the funds available for the project are close to $1.6 million. The money was allocated by the state when Palomar requested funds to deal with "secondary effects" resulting from the construction of a new library.

The state will provide 90 percent of the funds and the school district will supply the other 10 percent, says Paterson.

Right now, the Board is in the process of collecting bids from contractors to determine which company will do the actual construction.

"In April the bids will be brought

·Latin America aid discussed

By Sabrina Messenger Should the U.S. give aid to El Salvador or Nicauraguan rebel guerrillas? This and other related questions will be addressed at a seminar, Central America: The Struggle for Peace and Justice, on March 24 from 2-5 p.m. at Mission San Luis Rey, Oceanside.

Key speakers will include former Maryknoll Missionary Blase Bonpane, television star Robert Foxworth, Sister Ann Kelly, and Salvadoran student Jaime Flores.

Pat Rose, psychology mlijor and coordinator of this event, said that the reason this seminar is being held is because the media does not show both sides of the issue.

"People are sensitive to su1Jering when they understand the causes. The media support the Reagan position of giving support to repressive governments that violate human rights. If you hear both sides, people can make an intelligent choice on whom to support." said Rose.

Rose became involved in the Committee in Solidarity with the People ofElSalvadorbecause"lexperienced a growing awareness of the problems of the people in Central America and their suffering. More education is needed. People need to look beyond their political philosophies and see human su1Jering."

Refreshments will be available and $3 is the suggested donation.

Film explores life of artist Leonardo Da Vmci's lost masterwork, "The Battle of Anghiari," may prove to be the world's greatest painting, if and when its located, according to Philip Walker, the filmmaker-narrator of the travel film "Northern Italy and Rome."

Five hundred years ago Leonardo painted the picture on one of the Council Chamber walls of the Palaccio Vecchio, then a hundred years later another wall was added over it and another artist painted a picture on the new wall.

"Northern Italy and Rome" has all of the Renaissance settings associated with Leonardo's life, including Florence, Milan, Venice and Pisa. The film also visits Amboise, on the Loire River, where Leonardo died in 1519 at age 67.

The travel film will be shown March 24, at 1 and 3:30 p.m. in Room P-32 Individual tickets are $3.50 for the general public and $3 for Senior Citizens and students.

Anyone needing additional information can contact the office of Community Education, 744-1150 or 7277529, ext. 2155.

before the Board and a contractor will be chosen. Generally, it's the low bidder," Paterson says.

"We don't know how much the bid is going to be. It could cause a problem if the bid is over the $1.5 million allocated," he added.

Because the Board's first meeting is on April 9, construction could start about the 19 or 20 of the month, Paterson says. It usually takes about a week to ten days to get the necessary documents signed and the approval of the County Counsel on legality, he said.

There was a concern expressed by Dr. Kenneth Burns, assistant superintendent/vice president of student affairs, that construction might disrupt a Health Fair that has been planned, so construction will be post-

poned until after that date, Paterson says.

According to the architect's estimate, construction will take approximately 10 months, which would mean the renovation would be finished about November of 1985.

But Paterson added that there may be unforseen delays, caused by inclement weather, for example.

"It doesn't look as though there would be any problems with delays, though. They'll be starting construction in April, which is the perfect weather to start in because you have the dry summer months ahead," Paterson says.

While the construction is underway, Health Services, Admissions, Registration and the Career Center will be temporarily relocated.

The new facilities will also be equipped with a new Board of Trustees' meeting room.

The Board also heard a brief report from Dean of Humanities Gene Jackson, who is heading an Honors Program Task Force.

The task force is attempting to establish a program that would "target students who are ready to accomplish lower division undergraduate courses" to equip them for transfer to four-year institutions.

Although Jackson notes, "Our students do very well" when they transfer to four-year colleges, he says, "Quite frequently, the student doesn't get into English 1 when they should and so the Humanities teacher who requests a paper ends up having to teach English also.

Technician named 'Outstanding'

In fact, she is one of the many young women who were honored as "'utstanding Young Women of America" for 1984.

Nancy will be one of the young women featured in a book - "A younger version of 'Who's Who In America,'" she describes, and will also receive a certificate for her achievement.

Nancy, delighted with her new title, says, "It's recognition for all us single mothers who are struggling to be a good parent and professional in our career.

"It's like someone saying, 'Yeah, you are moving in the right direction.

You're somebody somebody special.'"

"It's recognition that I did more than the minimum," she says, "an award for that extra effort". And considering that this was a nation wide contest, she feels proud.

"What I'm doing is important," she asserts. "Giving your all is important.

And being a good mother and professional is important."

Disabled athletes to compete

Pre-schoolers week is set

This honor is awarded to young women for their family, business and civic involvement to give them "recognition for making America a better place to be."

Her boss, Judy Eberhart, director of the career center, nominated Nancy for the honor. Business leaders and educators across the states were sent forms last September to elect nominees.

The difference would be that instructors would integrate the material, so that the student would be writing on things they had learned in the Humanities or Philosophy course."

The intention of the program is not to speed up the process of getting into a four-year school, however.

"It's designed as more of an enrichment program," Larson said. "The units will be the same."

As yet, there have been no eligibility criteria established for entrance into the voluntary program and the proposal is still in its planning stages.

By Sean Grady Physically disabled students who are athletically inclined have a chance to demonstrate their prowess in the Palomar/Pepsi Seventh Annual Physically Limited Sports Day The event, which will take place here May 18, features activities which will take place both on and off campus.

According to PLSD Director Marilyn Lunde, the event is, to her knowledge,. 'the one and only' of its type on the West Coast.

Lunde stated that events like the Special Olympics are only for mentally handicapped atheletes.

While some people in this category have been allowed to compete in past meets, the Physically Limited Sports Day is geared mostly towards those with phyical, as opposed to mental, handicaps.

Some of the on-campus activities will take place in the Student Union.

Students who wish additional information may contact Lunde at Ext. 2595.

By Melanie J. AnderBOn Nancy Steffens-Diaz, at age 31, is a young woman, who, like many others, is juggling a family and a career.

But, Nancy, a single mother of two children, ages six and eight, is also civic-minded.

She is a team mother for her son's soccer team in the American Youth Soccer organization. She is a member of the United Methodist's pre-school board and represents parents of school-age children.

Also involved in business organizations, she is the area representative of CSEA (California School Employee Association). Nancy also spends her time as a member of several Palomar committees which include accreditation and affirmative committees.

Nancy is an outstanding young woman.

Nancy, a career technician at Palomar, works in the career center located in the library.

"One of the things ... that's true of the community college student is that they don't write enough."

"The proposal has been to offer a three course program ... to include a course in Humanities, English 1 and Philosophy," said Bob Larson, a guidance and career counselor who is on the task force.

"It would be a block program with a cluster of courses," he said. "It would be more of a coordinated approach.

Schweitzer lauded for his many humanitarian efforts

By Marilyne Mancino Buried on the banks of the Oguee River in Africa is a man unappreciated by many of this generation. Yet he was a man who, perhaps more than any other, personifies today's growing sentiments of concern for the ethical future of mankind.

And strangely enough, he chose to further his principles in the obscure surroundings of an African village.

Dr. Albert Schweitzer was born in Kayserberg, Alsace, in 1875, the eldest son of a minister. At an early age he displayed a great talent for music and was an accomplished organist by the time he entered the University of Strasbourg at age 18. An expert on the music of Johann Sebastian Bach, he was also a talented organ builder.

Committing himself for many years to the humanities and the arts, he obtained doctorates in philosophy and theology. However, not satisfied with these accomplishments and with the desire to better serve his fellow man, he proceeded to earn a medical degree.

Lauded by his peers on many continents, he chose instead of a life preaching and teaching to put his "religion of love" into practice. So accompanied by his wife, a nurse, he journeyed to French Equatorial Africa (Gabon) to establish a medical mission at Lambarene. A former chicken coop served as his first hospital and he conducted the continually growing facilities until his death at age 90.

Dr. Schweitzer was the first to coin the phrase "Reverence for Life" and he dedicated his own life to that premise.

In his writings on the subject he states: "The fundamental fact of human awareness is this: I am life in the midst of other life that wants to live. A thinking man feels compelled to approach all life with the reverence he has

for his own. Thus all life becomes part of his own experience. From such a point of view, 'good' means to maintain life, to further life, to bring developing life to its highest value.

'Evil' means to destroy life, to hurt life, to keep life from developing. This, then, is the rational, universal and basic principle of ethics."

Contrary to previous thought - that ethical behavior pertained only to man's relationship to man - Schweitzer also felt there was a kinship or brotherhood between man and animals, an idea perhaps not developed or understood until the present day. In fact, his predominate concept "Reverence for Life" was formulated after observing a group of hippopotamuses on the banks of the same Oguee River.

It was man's "senseless need to destroy" that caused Dr. Schweitzer to conclude that a "renaissance of the spirit" was the only hope for mankind, especially with the advent of atomic weapons.

He said in part, "Compared to former generations, inhumanity has actually grown.

Because we possess atomic weapons, the possibility and temptation to destroy life has become the fate of mankind. We can save ourselves from this fate only by abolition of atomic weapons. . .The abolition of atomic weapons will become possible only if world opinion demands it. And the spirit needed to achieve this can be created only by reverence for life . .. " Honored with the Nobel Peace Prize in 1952, he used the $33,000 award to expand the hospital at Lambarene and set up a leper colony.

Thus, Dr. Schweitzer's gentle approach of respect for life of man and animal and the love of all nature takes its place among the beliefs of the world's great philosophers.

Perhaps as a last resort, civilization will give those beliefs a chance to materialize.

Women consider options

By Sabrina M. Messenger Just over 110 years ago, Harvard Professor Dr. Edward Clark said that a college education would "injure, perhaps even destroy a woman's reproductive parts."

Dr. Clark would be astonished to see how many women raise families while successfully carrying a full course load.

Even as late as 1910, women weren't even encouraged to finish high school. The earliest women's colleges were actually finishing schools dedicated to teaching culture, domestic arts and Bible study. These schools were reserved for the upper class.

Yesterday's college woman lived a nun-like existence. Rising each morning at 6:30a.m., she was expected to attend chapel and do chores. She had to secure permission before going off campus, and she was painfully aware of the fact that choosing a career ruled out marriage and children.

The college woman of 1985 has many options before her. It's often hard to decide whether to pursue one goal or to go for broke,

to have it all.

Family, college, career, money, power.

Some women "have it all" now - but at what cost?

Women's magazines run numerous articles on stress-related problems like depression, drug abuse and bulemia/anorexia. Statistics now show that one in two marriages will end in divorce.

Did Betty Friedan open a Pandora's Box when she wrote "The Feminine Mystique"?

I am not advocating a return to the "keep 'em barefoot and pregnant" days. I merely ask Palomar College women to look long and hard at their sisters of the past. These women made exacting and difficult life decisions. We have it much easier now. Or do we?

During this Women's History Month, it would be worthwhile to stop for a moment and ask, "Do I really want it all?" Too much is taken for granted where women's rights are concerned. If we are not careful, these hard earned rights can easily be forfeited and we won't be able to blame men. The fault will be our own.

Math multiplies problems in writer's AA requirements

by Jerry Reyes Everyone has problems of their own. I'll be the first to admit it. Boy, will I admit it! It seems to me, though, that we all have enough problems as it is without being burdened by other inconveniences as well.

Let me clarify. I am speaking specifically of those problems which are hidden subtly within the framework of our school system. To all outward appearances they present a respectable facade, but deep in their backgrounds lurk ulterior motives of the most hideous kind.

I am referring, of course, to the AA educational requirements.

Now, I'm sure that these requirements were designed with the purest motives in mind, that is, the good of the student. The best laid plans of men, however, tend to go astray. It's true.

I can understand that we all need the basic fundamentals to get along in the outside world, but I have come to realize that some of these "good intentions" have gone seriously awry.

Take, for instance, the field of mathematics (please).

Ordinarily, I look upon math with the same sort of enthusiasm I have for root canal surgery. Algebra, doubly so. You can imagine how I felt when, after taking the Placement Test, I found myself eligible only for Beginning Algebra. One semester of math would have been enough, thank you, but to be stuck with three is almost more than I can take.

Naturally, I did my best to get out of it.

I dropped out for a semester, hoping for a revolutionary new breakthrough in the field of mathematics which would render Algebra obsolete. When that failed, I joined the Army (this was a last resort as the French Foreign Legion wouldn't take me). I considered dropping out of school altogether and becoming the world's most successful busboy, but I was persuaded not to.

My excuses had finally run out. I figured, quite wrongly in retrospect, that six years at a two-year institution was enough for anyone.

I'm sure that there are students who have been here longer than six years but I have been hard-pressed to find any who will admit it.

So here I am, with only three more semesters to go before I can receive my AA degree with each of those semesters tainted, in advance, by (ugh) math.

In all fairness, I should look on the bright side, however myopic I may be. There is probably a great need for a Combat Tank Loader/Busboy who can do algebraic calculations in his head. What business would be complete without one?

(Any businesses looking for a person of my qualifications may feel free to contact me at the Telescope offices . And I don't do windows.)

'Veggies' produce domestic problems

By Marilyne Mancino If there's one subject other than politics or religion that turns our house into an armed camp, it's nutrition.

The problem obviously started when my son became a vegetarian.

Now this may or may not sound earthshattering to you, but as anyone who has

experienced it knows, it can have a traumatic effect on a household.

Like those who have embraced a new religion, "Veggies" are not content to let you live your old hamburger-helper lifestyle. No siree, they want to save you from your sinful ways and replace your larder of Chef Boyar-dee and TV dinners with tofu and alfalfa sprouts.

Now for those of you not versed in veggie fare , let it be said that these are somewhat akin to Elmer's glue en aspic and spring vetch, au nature!.

Get the picture?

But when I complain, my son tells me, "Mom, you just have to burn the old tapes and start over. Think tahini!"

Well either I don't know where he's coming from or my tapes are hopelessly stuck in the cassette, because the thought of another luncheon of sesame pudding (also subs for parakeet gravel), sets my teeth on edge.

That's why, if you see a little old lady in Nikes, lurking by the snack-vending machines around 1 p.m., take pity. It's the only chance she's got to indulge.

Viva Ia Ding Dongs!

twin bill

By Paul Taylor What a difference one little lineup change can make.

Last week, Palomar's softball team was saddled with an uncharacteristic 8-8 record. That's when coach Mark Eldridge replaced Laura Perez at shortstop with Darlene Morris and moved designated hitter Dianne Klee to the outfield.

The move, designed to give the Comets more team speed, has done the trick Eldridge's team won three of four games last week, and topped it off by sweeping a doubleheader with Santa Monica Saturday.

While pleased with the twin-bill sweep - by scores of 7-4 and 6-1 Eldridge said it was not expected.

"You never expect that," he said.

"But I was pretty happy with the way the girls played. Going in, I thought they might play well and they did."

Ace pitcher Danena Badillo went the distance for the Comets (11-9 overall, 1-1 in the conference) to gain her ninth win of the season against seven losses. She received plenty of offensive support from her teammates, too.

Leading hitter Samantha Protzman, who is batting over .300, led the way with a couple of hits. Jo Marie Kube and Marina Gault also had two hits.

In the second game, Protzman was the starting pitcher and was in control before running out of gas in the sixth inning. Badillo came in at that point and mopped up. Protzman improved her record to 2-2 with the win.

Sharon Martin was the hitting star for the Comets in that second game, collecting a couple of crucial hits. Klee also had two hits.

"We're playing a lot better ball now," Eldridge said. "I think the lineup change has been real good for the team. It gives us more speed overall, which is something we needed. We don't have a lot of power this year like we had in the past years. We have to depend on speed.

"We'll be stealing a lot more bases this season, and sacrificing the runners along, than we have in the past."

Palomar was without star second baseman Marisa Hurtado in the doubleheader. Hurtado, who was a first team All-CIF selection in 1983 at Orange Glen High School, earned AllPacific Coast Conference and AllSouthern California Regional honors last year as a freshman.

In her place, Eldridge inserted · Perez, and was encouraged with what he saw from the former All-Avocado League and Ramona High School standout.

"Laura did a great job at second filling in for Marisa," Eldridge said.

"She was just excellent. After I made the change, she just decided she was going to be ready whenever she was needed, and she came through."

It is going to take several efforts like those to bring Eldridge his sixth conference championship in eight years. In that span, he has compiled a record of 177-49, a winning percentage of .783.

"We can win it," he said. "But we still need to improve a lot. I think we're over the hump, though."

San Diego artist Judith Nicolaidis is currently featured at the Boehm Gallery in a varied ceramic sculpture and photography exhibit.

Selected pieces from the artist's collection of the last 10 years include unique series, punctuated by occasional single major works. Various series are "Geoform," "sculpture," "Transformation: Fire and Water," "Tsk, Tsk, Ta Taand TutTut,""Sender/ Receiver," "Geodes," and "sand surfaced forms." Exhibited pieces vary in color from subtle to brilliant hues.

Netters Ready for title

By Paul Ta~lor Apparently, Nan Haugen has taken the baton from Terri Bamford without a hitch.

Bamford's women's basketball team recently concluded a season that saw it win the Pacific Coast Conference title with a perfect record.

Bamford's womens basketball team recently concluded a season that saw it win the Pacific Coast Conference title with a perfect record.

Thus motivated, Haugen's womens tennis team team has picked up where Bamford's left off. So well has the team been playing, in fact, that it currently sits atop the PCC standings with a perfect 5-0 record.

All of this, though, hasn't taken the coach completely by surprise.

"Before the season started," she said, "I was hoping we'd be this good. I kind of had an idea, but you never know until the season actually gets under way."

The season obviously has gotten under way--much to the dismay of conference opponents. And the key to the success of this team is its depth, according to the coach.

"I thought we would be strong depth-wise going in," she explained.

"And we have been. We have a really solid lineup all the way through, it's proved to be the one thing that sets us apart from the other teams in the conference."

Haugen knew her team was going to be strong enough already, but she got an unexpected bonus in the early going. Carlsbad High School's Paige Ready, who had been the key figure in leading the Lancers' drive to the pinnacle of supremacy in area prep tennis, suddenly announced in the spring that she would be attending Palomar.

The announcement surprised many, not the least of whom was a very ecstatic Haugen.

"The last I'd heard," the coach said, "she had a scholarshipat Northern Arizona University. But I guess she didn't like it or something so she came back here. I was kind of happy."

Six of the eight players on the roster are from three high schools. Pevey and

Belinda Whiteley from Orange Glen, Jennifer Youngren and Jennifer Aafedt from Fallbrook and Shelly Jones and Jennifer Pusker from Escondido.

Youngren and Aafedt were the number one and two players at Fallbrook last year, while Pusker was Escondido's top player.

Kind of. But to give an indication of Palomar's strength, Ready isn't even the number one seed on the team.

That title goes to sophomore lefthander Loretta Pevey, the only returnee from last year's team, and one who has gotten considerably better since her days at Orange Glen High School, according to Haugen.

"She improved tremendously last year," she said of Pevey, who was onehalf of the state's fourth-best doubles tandem a year ago. "And even from last year to this season, she's gotten a lot better. I'd say she's twice as good a player now as she was in high school.

She'll definitely get a scholarship."

After Pevey and Ready, the Palomar lineup is Youngren third, 37-year-old Rhoda Macabitas fourth, Whiteley fifth and Aafedt sixth. Then come Pusker and Jones.

Macabitas is a story by herself. A mother of two from Maui, Hawaii taking mechanical engineering classes, she is the "mom" of the team.

"She's a wonder," Haugen said. "She could play three, four or five. All the players on the team really like her a lot, too."

Right after her comes Whiteley, one of the many freshmen on the team, and another of the Pevey stillimproving types.

"She's done really well," Haugen said of her. "She's come in here and helped this team right away. There's been a lot of improvement in her game, and she's working on it. She'll get better, too."

Merchandisers display fashions 15 students majoring in fashion merchandising or other fashion related fields may have an opportunity to win $250 and have their work displayed at the Los Angeles Apparel Mart on March 23.

This contest, sponsored by a fashion consortium of the California Community colleges, includes ten categories. 75 guest speakers representing different sectors in the fashion field.

A fashion show and luncheon will be held.

"This is the first time this has ever been done." said fashion merchandising instructor Nancy Galli "Basically, it will give students an opportunity to learn what's happening in the industry and to meet students from other colleges throughout the state."

It's hard to imagine the team itself getting better, but it can. And will, if its coach has anything to say about it.

"I think we're going to improve a lot as a team," she said. "We're really working hard. There's room for it. This is really a young team, there are a lot of freshmen on it, and I think they're still getting used to playing junior college tennis.

"There's a big difference between high school and junior college. In high school, you play either singles or doubles. In junior . college you play both. The girls are still adjusting a little bit to that, I think" If they are, they're doing a good job of hiding it. Thus far, the closest any conference team has come to the Comets has been 7-2. Usually, it's 81 or 9-0. Still, though, it's not easy. At least, that's what Haugen would have you believe.

"Everybody guns for us, so we have to make sure that we're always at our best and playing well. If we keep playing like we are, though, and keep improving, there's no telling how far this team can go."

"Geoform" focuses on natural geological formations and the combination of order and randomness that occurs. Superimposed surfaces are pattered, highly glazed or left in the natural state.

The sculpture series is built of clay dug at Lake Hodges and represents the artist's first use of earthenware.

It continues the concern for contrast between precision and randomness.

Other series include photographic documentries and an interesting sculpture of the human ear. The wallhung, large scale model is a fascinating work, which is accompanied by audio cassette consisting of readings and computer-generated background sound.

The interesting diagonal placement of the sand-surfaced forms gives them a floating, spinning quality and the sense of a lack of center of gravity.

In addition to Nicolaidis' gallery exhibit, the artist will present a slide lecture on her work at noon, March 21, in room D-10. The lecture is free and open to the public. It continues through March 27.

Selections from the Boehm Gallery's permanent collection, including works

by Edward Kienholz, Mas ami Teraoka, Tom Holland and John Baldessari, are also on display.

The "B Minor Mass" stands alone, massive in statement and unique in character, blending musical styles and forms. The composer's emphasis is on fusion and synthesis as he brings together various modes of expression, from ancient fugue to Italian aria, and makes each greater through its association with the whole.

The actual composition of the "Mass" was long and complicated, with sections completed from 1773 through 1740, suggesting that Bach did not originally conceive of the "Mass" as a unified composition.

The work opens with the "Missa," divided into a Kyrie of three movements and a Gloria of eight; moves to the "Credo" dating back to the Council of Nicaea, AD. 325, affirming the precepts of the Christian faith; to the "Sanctus" and its six-part text pictorializing the six-winged angels of the heavenly host; and concludes with the brilliant burst of "Ossana," which begins the final section of the work, an expanse of five movements.

The quality of video production includes a five-minute opening of background information on the wellorchestrated effort of individual parties instrumental in the "Mass" production, as well as 15-minute intermission featuring Laura Buxton, anchorwoman of the Channel 39 news.

The KPBS presentation culminates a six-month cooperative effort aimed at sharing the "Bach B Minor Mass" with the people of San Diego in celebration of the 300th anniversary of the composer's birth.

For a project that would normally cost more than $100,000 to present, this particular production has been accomplished with minimal expense, due to the conception and guidance of Palomar Community College instructors Dana Hawkes and Chase.

Hawkes, the chairperson of the college communications department, developed a grant proposal to present to local private businesses to help underwrite the costs for the performance and consequent televising of the "Mass."

With the volunteer support of the La Jolla Symphony and Chorus, a high-standard amateur orchestra, and its conductor, Chase, as well as production personnel from the Telecommunications Department, many of the usual costs of performance and production were averted.

Commitment from Southwestern Cable provided the necessary equipment for high-quality video production and $5,500 was raised from seven businesses in the San Diego area.

Video direction was provided by Hawkes; associate direction by Stuart Shook, former staff member; with techincal assistance from advanced student crews of the college's "Remote Video Editing" classes.

The Palomar College Telecommunications Department is distinguished for its reputation as one of the finest programs of two and four year colleges and universities in the state. More than 10 Palomar student productions have aired on KPBS television since 1981.
