Klug named president Other ASB changes finalized

By Cyndie Claypool In less than two months Bob Klug has progressed from Associated Student Body senator to vice president to the position he now holds as the newly appointed president.

"I really don't know happened. I didn't expect to be ASB president," said the perplexed Jack-of-all-trades.

"I've been so darn busy, I haven't been able to think about it."

The 38 year-old student, who constantly dons a compassionate smile behind his sandy colored beard, is also ¡the director of the Food Bank, in charge of the vending machines, chairman of the Physically Limited Sports Day and Mayfair and is enrolled in 12 units for his Diesel Mechanics degree.

Klug has replaced Kevin Farrow who vacated the position of president for a job in Washington, D.C., as student liaison officer for the Department of Education.

Other position changes in ASB have also occurred since second semester began.

Mohanned Almuzaini now presides as vice president. Head judicial advocate is Paul Dockery, with Andres Leon and Bruce Armstrong as judicial advocates.

Rosemary Samhammer was elected head senator. The nine senators include Tom Archer, Keith Bartels, Shon Christy, Robin Danielson, Erik Eilerts, Jim Molinar, Kim Scanlan, Harold Skinner and Les Spellman.

"Associated Student Body sounds great and like a lot of fun, but it really takes a lot of volunteer work. It takes a highly motivated individual that cares more about the campus than themselves," explained Klug.

The ASB has been working on a variety of upcoming events, especially

By Paul Taylor You are about to embark on a journey to another dimension . A dimension not only of sight and sound, but also ofloneliness, uncertainty, and to a degree, fear.

You are thirteen years old and leaving your native homeland for a foreign country with a very limited grasp of its language and culture. A country whose citizens, you will fmd, come to regard those from your country much the same way they look upon SDG&E. That's the situation Elham Ataii encountered after moving to the United States with her family from Iran in January of 1979.

Now a Computer Analysis major, the 19-year-old is in her fmal semester at Palomar. She had been to America a couple of times briefly to visit relatives, but there is a difference between visiting and moving, as she found out first hand.

"In the first place (we moved here) because of religion, and the freedoms Americans enjoy. We used to come here to visit relatives and we saw what kind of freedom it was."

So when her family moved to Riverside in January, 1979, she wasn't a complete stranger to the United States and its way of life.

In her homeland, Iran, she had lived in the capitol city of Tehran - a name with which Americans would soon become all too familiar.

To say the lifestyles of Iran and America are a little bit different would be an understatement.

'1'he differences were mainly in the cultures," Elham said. "All the things I wasn't" used to were due mostly to the difference in cultures. For me, it wasn't quite as hard to adjust, because I'd been here before.

"I like to travel a lot, too. I think the fact that I have been to a lot of different countries and seen the cultural differences and the different kinds of people - I think that helped me adapt to the difference in the United States a little bit easier."

Upon her arrival here, she was placed in junior high school for a rather strange reason.

'1'hey put me in the eighth grade because of my height," she explained.

"They thought I'd get teased because I was kind of small. Otherwise, I would have been in the ninth grade and in high schooL" Kind of small? How about real small.

If she breaks five feet in height, its only because she's wearing extra-high platform shoes.

"I think it was a little bit of culture shock for me when I first got here," she admitted. "Especially as far as the students were concerned. It really suprised me. They had so much freedom. They even picked their own classes in schooL Back in Iran, we didn't get a choice. The classes were assigned to us."

Soon after enrolling in Riverside Poly High School in the fall of 1979, more attention began coming her way - attention of the negative variety, and it all related to the goings-on in Iran.

"We came out here the same day the Ayatollah supposedly came into the country." Elham said. "And, of course, soon after that there were the problems with the hostages in the embassy there.

"It was upsetting, because they would look at the nationality and not the person. There were some incidents, but they were minor, probably because I was a girL My cousin was the one who got in all the trouble. He was always getting into fights.

"Looking back on it, I think the older generation understood. The kids just didn't. My friends had to protect me a lot of the time."

Her friends weren't the only ones doing the protecting, however. Ironically, in part because of the freedom that had led her family to come here, it was this very same freedom that caused her parents to become even more protective of her.

"After that first bit of culture shock, I adapted. That doesn't necessarily

mean I took part in the things others did, but I accepted this way of life.

It took my parents a lot longer and I think they're still hesitant in a few ways for me to get away from the old culture. It's hard for them.

"There have been times when I've had to choose between the cultures," she said. ''They were conflicting with each other. My parents don't want me to get too much freedom, though.

"It was all new to me," she remembered. '1'he freedoms were a lot more than what I was used to in Iran. The kids are allowed to drive here when they are 16 years old. At 18 they (have) more sexual freedom and they (can) even get up and walk out in the middle of a class in schooL I was brought up on a whole different system."

A system, Elham adds, that just might be better than the one she is being educated in right now.

"I think it's better over there," she said of her homeland's educational system. "I came out here and, once I was able to function language-wise, the studying came naturally.

"In fact, it wasn't hard enough especially in high schooL It's been a little harder in college, but I still don't believe it's as hard as it should be. " I think a balance between the two systems would be ideaL There are too few schools and they are too crowded."

She graduated from San Dieguito High School in 1982 at 16, but still didn't really take it too seriously.

"High school was bad for me," she insists. "I got lazy, my study habits just fell apart. I think it was just a waste of time for me. I'm paying for it now, though."

It was nothing, though, compared to what school was like in the Middle East.

"I studied a lot of things in high school there," she explained. "I went to a strictly girls high schooL Geography and math were mandatory ... we learned English, the Persian language, and world history. We also studied the Arabic and Muslim holy books."

Ah, yes, religion. If one could be singled out, perhaps the main reason

for the Ataii family's moving here was the freedom of religion.

Her entire family is of the Baha'i Faith. Iran is an Islamic country and the vast majority of its citizens subscribe to the Muslim faith . That leaves a very small number of Baha'i believers in Iran. And the number is getting smaller and smaller each day.

'1'he Muslims have killed so many of them," Elham said. ''The population is going down very quickly. And a lot more of them are in prison and will stay there for who knows how long.

There's nothing really that can be done about it, though. As long as the people in the government want them killed, they will be killed.

"The people in the government here have appealed to the United Nations before, but they can't do anything about it. Rather than appealing to Iran's government, the whole system is against the Baha'is. Everyone is opposed, so killing them and covering up the killings is not difficult. ''They have a blacklist, so they check everyone about to leave the country, and if you're a Baha'i, you don't leave."

Here, the difference is like that between night and day.

"You can talk about the religions so freely," she marvelled. "you don't have to worry about anybody doing anything to you. That's really nice."

Would she like to go back to Iran?

"Sure, I would like to go back But only under a lot better circumstances.

I'll always love it and treasure it as my country. That's my culture. But if I went back there now, I would have to stand up for my rights and religious beliefs, and I would be killed."

It might be easy to get the impression that Elham is very independent now.

Wrong.

"I won't ever be out on my own," she said. "With the family ties we have, that would be difficult. That's one of our big strengths, the closeness of the family.

"My only concern is the job opportunities. If I can get out of school with flying colors, I don't think there will be much of a problem fmding a job."

Baseball teams rack up victories Easter vacation week was anything but kind to baseball and softball teams in the Palm Desert area.

Coach Bob Vetter's Comet baseball squad got off to a flying start in the College of the Desert Easter Tournament by winning its fust two games before some sloppy defensive play and a lack of pitching depth led to a pair of defeats.

In College of the Desert's companion women's softball tourney, coach Mark Eldridge's Comets were eliminated in two straight outings.

In men's baseball, sophomore righthander Steve Kovensky pitched Palomar to a 5-2 victory over Mt. San Jacinto in the tournament opener on Wednesday by recording his seventh complete game and striking out seven.

But the triumph was costly for the Comets, who lost freshman centerfielder Ron Sisler for the season.

Sports squads gird for stretch drives Coach Bob Lusky's golf squad continued its march to an Inland Valley Conference title by winning another tournament last week in an impressive fashion.

In an abbreviated schedule during the week before Easter vacation, the Comets also: rolled to another onesided women's tennis victory by blanking MiraCosta in Pacific Coast Conference action; remained in the thick of contention in the PCC women's softball race by crushing Imperial Valley College, 24-0; dropped a critical 4-1 decision to visiting Southwestern to fall two games behind the Apaches in the PCC baseball chase; and bowed to Citrus, 76-24, in a men's Inland Valley Conference swimming meet.

The golfers collected their fifth victory in the past six Inland Valley tournaments in which the Comets have competed by fmishing with a 391 total at Palm Springs, whipping San Diego Mesa ( 403). San Diego City ( 411 ) and College of the Desert (435).

Palomar's Doug Higgins battled strong winds to emerge the tourney medalist with a 74. Other Comet's scores were: John Payne, 77; John Delaney, 78; Mike Levy, 80; Jade Work, 82; and Darren Sorrell, 85.

Palomar's top four golfers, sparked by medalist Delaney's two-over-par 74 at the El Prado golf course in Chino totaled 309 strokes to trim host Santa Ana (320) and San Diego City (329) March 15.

Higgins (76), Levy (78) and Sorrell (81) trailed Delaney.

John Pyne, John Delaney, Mike Levy and Jade Work all fmished at 78 for Palomar while Chip Nelson had an 84.

Levy sizzled with a school-record 3under-par 69 to spark the Comets to a one-shot win over San Diego Golf Academy and San Diego City March 22 at Whispering Palms golf course.

Palomar wound up at 366, trailed by San Diego Academy (367) and San Digo City (390).

Payne and Higgins were next in line for the Comets with 73s.

MEN'S SWIMMING: Coach Bob Hoff's Comets tumbled to 1-3 in the Inland Valley Conference standings as Citrus captured every first place in the meet.

Two Palomar swimmers managed second places - Scott Prather, 24.4 in the 50 freestyle; Peter Loedel, 2:02.2 in the 200 freestyle; and Brad Royer was third in the 200 freestyle in 2:04.7.

Palomar's Glen Simpson came through with a personal best diving with 190 points.

Palomar presented the first-year coach with his initial victory March 22 aa 71 -32 dunking of Rio Hondo.

Prather captured the 50-yard freestyle in 24.4, the 100 freestyle in 56.7 and was a member of the winning 400 relay team.

MEN'S TENNIS: Coach Jon Cnossen's Comets fell to San Diego Mesa March 22. No. one single performer Andy Mikchel and the No. 3 doubles team of Tom Borer and Tin Tran collected the lone victories for Palomar.

Paige Ready and Rhoda Macabitas also starred in singles for the Comets with lop-sided 6-0, 6-1 and 6-0, 6-0 wins, respectively.

Pevey, Ready, Jennifer Youngren, Macabitas, Belinda Whiteley and Jennifer Aafedt scored sinles victories for Coach Nan Haugen's Comets against Grossmont March 12 while Pevey-Ready and Aafedt-Youngren romped to doubles triumphs.

Macabitas-Whiteley won via forfeit.

Pevey, Ready, Macabitas, Whiteley and Aafedt were repeat singles winners in the San Diego City match., Pevey-Ready, Aafedt-Youngern and Whiteley-Macabitas came up with doubles victories.

Coach Patti Waterman's Comets were an easy winner over Pierce, 8249, but were victimized by Mt. SAC, 75-55, in the double-dual event at the Mounties' pool, March 12.

Linda Barberi and Wendy Bransford paced Palomar. Barberi won the towyard breaststroke and 100 breaststroke. Bransford claimed the 100 individual medley and was second in the 50 butterfly. The pair joined Jenny Greer and Denise Brown to capture the 200 medley relay.

Barberi flninshed sixth individually to highlight the Comet's fifth -place showing in the five-event Saddleback .

Linda Barberi came through with a triple by winning the 200 individual medley, 200 freestyle and 100 freestyle March 22 Wendy Bransford also posted a triple as coach Patti Waterman's Comets tripped Rio Hondo, 7949.

The All-San Diego Section selection from Escondido suffered a fractured and dislocated right thumb while making a diving catch in the outfield to save a pair of runs. Sisler, the No. 3 hitter in the batting order, was the team leader in runs batted in. Vetter also had planned to use him as his fifth hurler in the tourney.

Sisler had a pair of singles against Mt. San Jacinto· before being injured.

The Parry brothers, outfielder Bob and third baseman John, also contributed a pair of hits apiece to the Comet attack.

Palomar bounced back the following night to jolt Pacific Coast Conference rival Southwestern, 8-7, as freshman right-hander Dave Danover made his fust collegiate start a winning effort.

Danover was relieved by sophomore lefty Sal Embry, who recorded the fmal two outs and his initial save of the season.

Freshman third baseman John Parry had a key two-run double for the Comets to provide the winning margin. Outfielder Steve Fields chipped in with a double and two singles while catcher Craig Chamness and second baseman Scott Hartwig each had a pair of singles.

Shoddy defense Jed to sophomore left-hander Todd Poelstra's 7-5loss to eventual tournament champion Antelope Valley in Friday morning's contest at Angel Stadium in Palm Springs. Six of the seven runs charged to Poelstra were unearned.

Embry, who had pitched only two innings prior to the tourney, started against Southwestern in the Friday afternoon game, the Comets' fourth in three days, and performed well under the circumstances. Nine of 11 runs charged to Embry in an 18-11 setback were unearned. Hancock again mopped up in relief.

Bob Parry had a towering 385-foot homer and a single in the Antelope Valley encounter and Fields came through with two doubles. Brian Wilhite, Randy Davilla, Hartwig and Fields each had two hits for Palomar (9-8-1) in the finale against Southwestern.

Mt. San Antonio College handed the women's softball team a 5-4 loss in the desert and a powerful Fullerton eliminated the Pacific Coast Conference contenders, 7-4, in their second tournament start.

Coach Mark Eldridge's Comets routed Imperial Valley for their sixth triumph in the past seven outings as they ran their PCC record to 3-1 and their overall mark to 14-10.

NEWS Dancers rehearse for concert

by Jordan David Omens "Dance is something you need to do everyday - the only way to improve is repetition," says Dorothie Bleth, director of the dance department.

The Annual Spring Dance Concert, June 7-9 in the Palomar Community Theatre, is the culmination of the students' semester work The concert will be comprised of different dance forms, including theatre dance, modern dance and ballet.

The dancers are selected from the upper division dance courses. There are "usually 40 dancers," said Bleth, but this year there will be only 25 to 30 participants.

Bleth indicated that she "does not have the numbers in upper level classes." The students are "eligible but not able to participate in the concert because of work obligations." This group is "smaller than ever, which will challenge them to work very hard."

Very hard in this case means dancing 10 hours a week for 15 to 16 weeks, plus physical conditioning outside the studio.

"Many dancers swim and weightlift, trying to achieve the balance between flexibility and strength while acquiring leg muscles," said Bleth.

Bleth stresses "not going on strict diets. Dancers get so concerned (with their weight). They get fanatical. It can be dangerous."

Bleth said this concert will give her dancers a "chance to perform" and also "to share dance with the community."

Klug busy with ASB (Continued from page 1) Mayfair, of which Klug is chairman.

Besides his school activities, Klug also works full-time as a photographer, a job he has held for eight years. He works five months, from August to January, 50 hours a week and gets seven months off.

Before he began attending Palomar in the spring of 1983, he spent his "off season" as a hired crew member on various ships that sailed to Central and South America.

Mechanics were needed for the boats, but hard to fmd. Thus, he decided to enroll in diesel classes.

"I had never heard of Palomar before," said the Poway resident. "Now, I love Palomar. It's a wonderful place."

He began attending Palomar two years ago and became involved on campus.

Klug spends most of his day at school. "I get here early and leave late," he said.

Klug chuckled, saying that at age 38, he is probably the oldest ASB president Palomar ever had.

This could be his last semester attending school. However, there is a possibility that he will return, either by taking a few classes or working on campus. "I really like this place," he stressed.

The only problems that arose was when the gambling was questioned.

Club members were advised to go through various channels, with the Board of Trustees having the final word on the issue, said Scanlon.

The committee presented their ideas and reasons for holding the event to the Board, while the opposing side gave their opinions.

According to Scanlon, the Board "said it was fme (to have casino night) and that we were very well prepared."
