Ecology Attion Turns Focus
on Environment ul Problems
Soph Class Plans
Activities for Fall
With so much emphasis on the
parking issue, the PCC Reclama¬
tion Center hasn’t received the
attention that it so desperately
deserves in order for the ecology
program at PCC to succeed.
David Foster, chairman of the
Ecology Club, realizes this and
has taken action. He announced at
the club’s meeting last Thursday
that the Reclamation Center is
the most important element in
the ecology program and should
be accomplished before all other
projects.
Paul Melts is organizing a
committee to operate the center.
The Maintenance Department has
already promised a location for
the center. Interested students
should leave a message for Paul
at the Earth House in the Campus
Center.
Bruce Daitz is heading an in-
formatioon group on planned
parenthood, which goes hand-in-
hand with the survival of our en¬
vironment. He will have two ta¬
bles; one by the mirror pools and
one by the cafeteria. The tables
will be manned from 12 noon to
1 p.m. every day and probably
longer hours after the program
gets underway.
Students interested in helping
with this program can reach
Daitz in the Reading Lab on
Tuesday and Thursday from 8
to 12 noon and 6 to 10 p.m., or
come to the Ecology meeting on
Thursday at 12 noon in 108E.
The Ecology Club is trying to
get the Senate to okay a “bicycle
path” through the campus as now
bikes are not even supposed to
be ridden on campus. They also
have plans for more bicycle racks
at several locations on campus.
The idea of a seven-sided bulle¬
tin board was also introduced at
the last meeting. Its purpose
would be to provide one central
place for students from outlying
areas to sign up for rides.
It has become rather definite
that students will be charged for
parking next semester. The Ecol¬
ogy Action Club has suggested
that parking stickers be sold to
people living the farthest away
from school, giving them priority
and then sell these stickers to stu¬
dents living closer or even not at
all.
David Foster warned students,
“The only way we can get rid of
the parking structure is by peti¬
tion, which has to be presented
to the Board of Trustees before
January 4.”
Wednesday morning shortly af¬
ter 9 o’clock, an unidentified male
called the secretary of the librar¬
ian and made a bomb threat, stat¬
ing that an explosive charge had
been planted in the library and
would explode in 15 minutes. The
library was evacuated and a
thorough search of the building
The Sophomore Class has a
varied list of activities planned
for future months.
On October 22, a rock band that
calls itself “Dust,” will perform
at 12 noon in the free speech area.
A homecoming parade with an
1890’s theme will be held October
31 on Horrell Field. Six members
of the Sophomore Class will be
passengers in a horse-drawn car¬
riage of the 1890’ s era. The car¬
riage and the horses have been
loaned to PCC by actor Richard
Long, through 20th Century Fox
Studios.
A car rally to be held in the
was made by the Pasadena Police
Department. Students returned to
the study hall shortly after 10
a.m.
All students are reminded that
in the event of a fire drill or evac¬
uation they should take all of
their belongings, including books,
coats, etc., with them.
Hill Ave. parking lot, has been
set for November 13. The time
of the rally is 7:30 p.m. As of this
time there has been no admis¬
sion price set. The proceeds from
the rally will go into the Sopho¬
more Class fund.
Free films are scheduled for No¬
vember 19 at 12 noon in Harbeson
Hall. The films which are to be
offered are W. C. Fields, Key¬
stone Cops, and Little Rascals.
The running time of these films
will be approximately 45 minutes.
Besides these activities, the
class has planned a once-a-month
outing for handicapped students.
This program, new this semester,
would entail taking 10 to 12 stu¬
dents from PCC and 48 from
Basset High School in La Puente
to a site in the surrounding area.
Some of the locations decided
upon thus far are Disneyland,
Knott’s Berry Farm, Universal
Studios, and the beach. Any stu¬
dent interested in becoming a
chaperone for these outings may
fill out the necessary forms with
Mrs. Mary Lou Maxson, upstairs
in the Campus Center.
