42nd 1C Conference
Held in San Francisco
Taking a stand on the draft and a pass-fail system for
junior colleges were two of the many questions discussed at the
42nd California Junior College Student Government Associa¬
tion Conference in San Fracisco. For opinions from male stu¬
dents on the draft, the CJCSGA
representatives resolved to con¬
duct a poll on the Selective Serv¬
ice System.
AMS president Steve Ito is
drawing up the poll to be admin¬
istered at PCC. The results will
be compiled and presented at the
next CJCSGA conference.
Hoping to establish a college
community with more emphasis
on learning, the conference also
named a committee to investi¬
gate the possibilities of a pass-
fail system in grading. Con¬
ferees also went on record to op¬
pose any legislation proposed to
establish a tuition system on the
California university and state
college level.
ASB president John Holder not¬
ed that he was surprised at how
effective the CJCSGA can be. He
said that besides controlling its

Because of the potential politi¬

ASB Assembly
on Tuesday
The Mariachi Brass, led by
Marcus Antonio, will entertain
the ASB general assembly audi¬
ence tomorrow at noon.
The band plays the sounds of
Mexico and attempts to capture
the theme of the strolling Maria¬
chi bands while adding its own
musical influence. The result is
an inter-marriage of popular
sound with the contemporary
sound of Mexico.
The success of their unique
sound has been proved by the
number of albums they have re¬
corded with World Pacific Liberty
Records.
Its albums include a “Taste of
Tequilla,” “Hats Off,” and the
soon-to-be-released “Double Shot”.
Its instrumentation includes An¬
tonio alternating the trumpet and
fluegelhorn as the mood changes;
a two-man trumpet section; trom¬
bone and bass trombone; mar¬
imba; rhythm guitar; bass guitar;
drummer.
Since May the band has appear¬
ed throughout the West and is
currently planning a Mid-Western
and Eastern tour. Its college ap¬
pearances began last month.
ASB members will be ad¬
mitted free of charge, while non¬
members will pay $1.
Henderson's Cards Take to Air;
Bombard Lancers with Aerials
By John Maffei
They said they were great. They
said they were fantastic, and they
lived up to it, as Margene Adkins,
Eddie Valdez, and their Henderson
Cardinals romped past the Pasa¬
dena City College Lancers, 40-13,
in the 21st annual Junior Rose
Bowl game last Saturday.
Valdez, the man with the golden
arm, set four JRB records. He
completed 20 of 28 passes for 334
yards and six touchdowns. He also
rushed for 77 yards and finished
with a total offense of 411 yards.
ADKINS WAS also great. He
broke three JRB records. Mar-
gene caught 12 passes for 199
yards and three touchdowns.
The Lancers started the game
by fumbling the ball to Hender-
Auto Club
Emphasizes
Yule Safety
“Christmas is a happy time of
year. Don’t give grief to your
family by being a traffic fatality.
Alcohol and automobiles don’t
mix,” says Bill Wood, president
of the newly established PCC
Auto Club, in stressing traffic
safety during the holidays.
The club will support city and
state traffic laws, regulations, and
programs by promoting safe
driving. Working with the Pasa¬
dena Police, the Auto Club will
pass out brochures on traffic
safety during the next week.
A Christmas dance on Decem¬
ber 21 is set for the auto shop
from 10 p.m. to 1 a.m. Future
plans include speakers from law
enforcement agencies. Meetings
are held in the auto shop.
All students with a sincere in¬
terest in auto mechanics are in¬
vited to join.
son on the first scrimmage play
of the game. The Pasadena de¬
fense held Henderson and took
over after a punt.
Loren Shumer, the workhorse,
then went to work. Loren rumbled
44 yards on a screen pass after
some nifty ball-handling by quart¬
erback Jim Nader. Shumer, who
ate up the Cards on the drive,
went for 10 more yards and a first
down before blasting into the end-
zone from the 11-yard line. Shu-
mer’s score made it 6-0 and Szem-
eredi’s conversion was good mak¬
ing it 7-0 with 8:18 to go in the
first quarter.
AT THE START of the second
quarter Henderson started a 90-
yard drive, with the capper being
a 75-yard touchdown pass — Vald-
dez to Johnny Davis. Babbitt boot¬
ed the extra point and it was 7-7.
Davis’s reception set a record for
the longest gain by pass in the
JRB.
The Lancers could not move the
ball after the kickoff and punted.
John Loomis fumbled the snap
from center and got off a 17-yard
kick that went out of bounds on
the Pasadena 41 yard line.
Valdez then went to work. He
hit Jim Swords with a nine-yard
pass. Swords then ran for seven
more. Then Valdez rifled a 25-
yard scoring pitch to Adkins. Bab¬
bitt converted, and with 9:57 left
in the half, Henderson led 14-7.
AFTER HENDERSON could not
move the ball on their opening
drive of the second half, the Lan¬
cers started to drive. Nader hit
Shumer with a 24-yard pass, but
the drive stalled after that. Loom¬
is got off a tremendous kick, with
the ball going out of bounds on
the one-foot line. Karl Davis did
a fine job of covering the kick.
Henderson now put together a
99-yard drive. Vsldez struck again
with a 26-yard pass to Adkins. He
fired again to Adkins for 16. Then
four plays later he hit Adkins
again for 11 yards and a touch¬
down. Babbitt converted, and it
was 21-7.
After the kickoff PCC was forced
to punt. Henderson started a drive
from its own 37. Eight plays later
Valdez hit speedy Linzy Cole with
a 16-yard touchdown strike. Bab¬
bitt’s conversion attempt was
wide and the score was 27-7.
THE LANCERS put together a
61-yard drive after the kick-off.
Nader hit Willie Campbell for 13
yards and a first down. Then on a
crucial fourth and five situation,
Nader hit Bobby Meyers for eight
yards and a first down.
Nader struck again on a 33 yard
pass to Meyers that put the Lan¬
cers on the Henderson three yard
line. After three tries Loren Shu¬
mer bulled in from the one and
the Red and Gold had scored
again. Szemeredi’s kick was
blocked and the score was 27-13.
After the kickoff Henderson
started a 92-yard TD drive. Valdez
picked up 28 yards on a quarter¬
back sneak. Then with 5:37 re¬
maining in the game, Valdez hit
Adkins with a 62-yard scoring
pass. The conversion was no good,
and the score was 33-13.
AFTER THE Henderson kick¬
off the Lancers seemed headed
for another score when Nader hit
end Tom Sherlock with a 51-yard
pass only to have Sherlock fumble
after being belted hard. Hender¬
son recovered.
Jim Swords rumbled 54 yards
the first play after the fumble.
Cole scooted for 16 more. Then
Valdez hit Ron Jones with an
eight-yard touchdown pass. Bab¬
bitt converted and the scoring was
done. Henderson 40, Pasadena 13.
Pasasena’ defense looked any¬
thing but the third best in the na¬
tion in this game. The pursuit was
bad. The pursuit of the pass rush¬
ers was even worse.
Well, all you can say now is
8-1-1 isn’t too bad.
