ASG slates talent show, special days By Colleen Riedell

"We're feeling good," laughed Kim Scanlan, Associated Student Government president. Small wonder. On October 17 the six recently elected senators had a conference with the ASG members and administration to become familiar with policy, regulations and requirements of being in student government. While only six students ran to fill the ten vacant senatorial positions, two "good prospects" also attended the day-long conference. "The ASG now just needs to vote in good, interested students. It's out of my hands," said Scanlan. At the conference the ASG also discussed an upcoming Christmas program the week before winter vacation. "We have a piano that was donated to the ASG and hope to have a piano player all week and the little kids will decorate the tree. We'd like to have a sing-along, too," she offered.

,Inherit the Wind' continues tonight "Inherit the Wind," an intense courtroom drama, will continue performances through October 26 at the Palomar College Theatre. Director Pat Larmer leads a cast of 36 members, the largest for any non-musical theatrical production at the college in the historical drama that questions social attitudes of the 1920's that are still relevant today- evolution vs. scripture and, on a larger scale, constitutional rights. The large group cast as towns-people have a very meaningful and demanding job, according to Larmer. "Without set lines, their appropriate reactions throughout the play are essential to the show," he said. Leading the cast is John L. Douglas portraying Matthew Harrison Brady. Brady's character is taken from the real William Jennings Bryan and his dealings

with the Scope's monkey trial. Mark Klemetsrud will play the other main character Henry Drummond who resembles the real Clarence Darrow. Evening performances will be tonight and Saturday at 7:30p.m. Tickets are $5 general and $4 for seniors, students and staff. "Inherit the Wind" is the first of six productions included in the 1985-86 Palomar/MiraCosta College Theatre Association season. Season tickets are available for $25. A special discount plan is available to senior citizens and students for $20. For tickets or more information, contact Palomar or MiraCosta theatre box offices at 744-1150 or 7572121, respectively.

Scanlan attended a conference for ASG presidents recently and discovered Palomar's positive aspects regarding government. "Palomar by far has the best activities. There were some 30 schools represented, and some of them only had two activities a year. Palomar now has 25. At the end of this year we hope to have had 28. "Our school ASG was the most political, too. I ~o found out I wa.S one of few female presidents, which intimidated some of 'the males. Here was a girl running 25 activities when he did two." The new activities being considered are a new Christmas Week, Student Information Day artd a talent showI display with speech, dance, drama and choir performances. The next ASG activity will be the All-School Picnic Halloween Day. There will be venders, clubs with information and displays, a pumpkincarving contest, a costume parade/ contest for staff and students and a free lunch for the student body.
