Recent Fly-in
Held by Club
The PCC Flying Club held a
fly-in recently at Santa Barbara
Airport. Three planes were flown
to the airport loaded with 13 PCC
flying students.
Ralph C. Williams, instructor of
mathematics, and Dave Barberree
and Chuck Cherpetier, students,
were pilots. Before the aspiring
pilots began their actual aerial
work in Santa Barbara, they held
a beach party.
Each student paid $8 for two
hours of flying, which is relative¬
ly inexpensive compared to com¬
mercial flight schools.
This was the first of many fly-
ins. All interested students should
contact Barberree in the Flying
Club office at the Campus Cen¬
ter.
A flight-ground school meets
every Tuesday from 7 to 9:30
p.m. This class prepares students
to pass written flying exams.

AMS Will Honor
Outstanding Men
All male students are eligible
from any major at PCC to be¬
come “Man of the Month.” The
Associated Men Students Board
is sponsoring this program to hon¬
or a male student who has given
outstanding service, or who has
won a special honor for himself
or the college.
In order to insure the success
of the program, the AMS Board
will ask each instructor, activity
adviser, division chairman, and
the dean of student activities to
participate in the project by sub¬
mitting monthly nominations for
“Man of the Month” to the board.
The AMS Board will then select
three of the most outstanding
men from among the names sub¬
mitted. They will be interviewed
by an authorized AMS committee
and an election will be held to se¬
lect the “Man of the Month.”
Since much current debate on
U.S. foreign policy centers around
Viet Nam, a large part of the pro¬
gram will focus on that topic.
Members of the on-stage panel
will have questions prepared, and
members of the audience will be
able to submit questions through
the moderator, Dr. Ralph Hall¬
man, chairman of the Social Sci¬
ences Department.
Robinson attended the Univer¬
sity of Buffalo and served in the

Invention Debuts
on ABC Program
Lawrence Johannsen, assistant
professor in the Department of
Engineering and Technology, is
the inventor and developer of the
Instructoscope.
The teaching device was demon¬
strated during his presentation,
“Machines: A New Horizon in
Learning,” on ABC “Scope.” The
program was produced at PCC
with John Gregory, head of the
telecommunications section as co¬
ordinator.
Johannsen developed a crude
version of the Instructoscope in
his industrial electronics class in
1962. Because of its potential, he
was advised to submit the device
to Stanford Research for evalua¬
tion. Since then, he has improved
the instrument and its is now in
production and in use in many
institutions across the country.
The Instructoscope is used at
PCC in such classes as history,
political science, mathematics, ge¬
ography, music, and life science.
