"We couldn't have made it through the fall rush in the old bookstore," said Virginia Dower, manager of the store. "The books themselves would have taken up the whole store. This year we put twice the amount of students through in half the time." Around $140,000 was spent in

Libertarians organize political club on campus Political clubs on campus will be given a new dimension this year with the addition of a libertarian organization, which will be advised by Michael Newbrough, a new teacher at Palomar. The club will meet on the second and fourth Fridays of each month in room 013 at 11 a.m. with the first meeting scheduled for October 16. The club will give like-minded and interested people an opportunity to get together to share ideas, opinions and "learn more about an individualistic philosophy," according to Newbrough. " I do not intend that we (the club) go out to change the world or other peoples' views; to propagandize or proselytize," says Newbrough. "Individualists are by nature not organizers or crusaders; they believe everyone should be free to enjoy his life without interference from moralistic or egalitarian legislators."

At the governing board meeting on September 23, Dr. Frederick Huber, Palomar president, noted that the campus' day student capacity of 10,000 ''is not that far away." Administrators and board members seemed more concerned over the classroom situation than parking which they termed as "tight."

John Schettler, assistant superintendent for business, announced plans for paving several acres of additional parking space and mentioned that offcampus land may be needed in the future.

Authentic Russian folk music will be presented October 11 at 8 p.m. when the touring group, Odessa Balalaikas, performs in the Student Union. This group was formed by six young students at UCLA, under the direction of Stephen Wolownik. They mastered Russian folk instruments, the gypsy and village vocal styles, studied the music and history of balalaika orchestras, and researched and designed Russian costumes. "So far as we know, the Odessa Balalaikas are the only group of Ameri<;ans traveling and giving concerts of this type of music in the United States," commented Wolownik. "Of course, there are some groups from Russia concertizing here, but their approach to the concert situation is quite different from ours. "The Soviet groups tend to stress the exoticism and relative strangeness of their culture, generally remaining quite distant from their audience. "But because we are Americans we relate to the audience not as strangers but as friends." The Odessa Balalaikas have performed at colleges and universities throughout the United States. Their success may be measured in the response of one critic who wrote, "The theater shook for two solid hours; - Outstanding musicians; we'll have them back." Admission for the performance is $1. Tickets may be bought at the door.

Fonseca remodeling and expanding the store this summer. The newer bookstore now features 7,000 square feet compared to 2,000 square feet last year. But the bookstore's size isn't the only noticeable change. Two pieces of unique art that adorn the expanded facility are bound to catch the eye. Hanging on the tourteen foot hexagonal glass entrance is a 36 inch, 50 pound copper and brass college seal by Anthony Lugo, art instructor. Lugo spent around 150 hours on the emblem whose theme represents the academic pursuits of the school. Lugo said that he agreed to take on the project for professional growth credit. Laurie Kraynik was selected by art instructor Harry Bliss to complete the second piece of art, designed to create the illusion of a tree growing in the store. The original tree was taken from Grand Avenue in San Marcos. The trunk and branches are modified enough to fit it into the store, and Kraynik took it from there. Kraynik also painted the design on the exterior of the store's freight door. The bookstore carried 75,000 textbooks per semester amounting to approximately 175,000 textbooks per year. "The actual profit of each book sold amount to only a few cents," Dower said. "If all we sold were books the bookstore would operate at a loss." So the bookstore has increased in all areas to accommodate the need of the student. Printed items such as clothing, mugs, and jewelry, are becoming popular. A larger trade book section with paperbacks, non-texts (both fiction and nonfiction) are in stock now. The gift department is expanded, with a special student arts and crafts sale corner. Photography, engineering, and art equipment sections were also increased to accommodate specialized classes. "We can't compete with the larger discount houses that sell large quanities of paper goods, but you'll find that our prices are generally less here than stores that give student discounts," said Dower.

Putting theory into practice sums up the major goal of Cooperative Education (CE), according to Director Robert Kuretich. Similar to the work experience programs of many area high schools, the CE program is more specific in that the student must be working at a job which parallels his/her course of study. 1100 students are currently enrolled in CE, with over 600 employers throughout the county taking part in the program. Students earn one unit of credit for each 75 hours of work, up to four units a semester. To be e!!gible for enrollment in CE, students must. be enrolled in a minimum of eight units, four of which may be CE. Furthermore, they must be enrolled in a program leading to a certificate or a degree, they must have at least one class which relates to their occupation, and they must be approved by a CE instructor coordinator. A taped orientation program is available in the learning center on request. For further information contact a CE coordinator in building W.
