"When a woman is isolated athome, she won't be able toexchange ideas."

Valta Pointer, a volunteer ofthe Women's Center is aparttime student. She,plans to

rcontinue her educatión in the fall."I always wanted a -collegeeducation," she said. 'Every

woman that comes to school forspecific reasons needs specialclasses in business. She will beable to support her family.Slomen are also expanding theirhorions of knowledge.".The maxim, "a woman's place

is in the home," no longer holds.true. Women are identifyingthemselves as "individuals" tohave a chance to explore,discover and move Èeely

been accepted as students atFCC to seek new educationalopportunities.

loni Miller, first fulltimecoordinator of the Women'sCenter, indicates that women iqFresno County h'ave reasons fornot continuing their educ¿tion.These reasons are limitededuc¿tion background, inade-quate finaneial resources, familyresponsibilities, limited com-munie¿tion skills, and cultur¿lheritage.

Slomen are kdeping the paceby changing their ¿ttitudes topositive thinking to continuetheir ac¿demic educ¿tion, shesaid.

The enrollment of day andevening women students has irotbeen iecently aceumulated.Statistics show that 6,6&3 women

lnstÍuctor is top soilor Brown skips FCC tocqmpoign in Oregonby Steve Paliughi

"I enjoy the competitiònbetween the elements, the boat,and myself," says instructorRichard Brown of . his sailinghobby.

'Being born and raiéed in theflat farming region of lowa, ohewould think that Brown would

- piek baseball, \ite flying.orsoap-box racing as a hobby. NotBrown, who sþent his childhoodsummers on Lake Miehigan withrelatives. "\il'e used to go out tothe la.ke and play with toysailboats while watching the realones sail. I guéss that's whathooked me."

"Five years ago I purchasedmy lirst sailboat. This was on aSunday; that Wednesday my sonand I put it through its paces in asailboat race at Lake Millerton,"Brown remarked. "The entirerace \pas a struggle for survival.lVe bailed water for the enti¡etime."

Since then Brown hasimproved his technique and hasmanaged to win quite a fewtrophy races. "Last year $¡eplaced second in the high SierraRegatta at Huntington Lake.Unlike other sailboats in ourclass, our'Victory' is ¡nuch fasterthan most."

Brown is a memberof theFresno Yacht Club and competesthree times a year in theNational Yacht'Championships,

2l-foot category races. "lüe leavetown a few times a year to race inthe championships at such placesas San Diego and Santa Barbara.

"When I was down off thecoast of Ecuador researching thetributaries of the Amazon, wemade our base an old twemastedschooner. The ship was, so oldthat all the meals were cooked ina sandpit on deck."

On May 8, Brown ti'ed for first.'place in the Spring Yacht Racing" Series at Millerton Lake. "I don't

like ties," commented Brown. "Iwon the fall series; I should havewon the spring series as well."

"By sailing I feel as though I'mtaking nature as it comes," saysBrown. "All the work pays oflwhen I can get the.boat to sailwell."

Personol counseling of tCC?By Bill Boes

You're deeply in 'debt, yourgirl friend is twetiming you,your parents are pushing for.adivoree and your cat just died.The next day you fail yourchemistry test. Is there anyrelationship between theseeatastrophies, or is it all justcoincidence?

Counselor Bob Richardson isone of many eounselors andteachers who feèl there is a closeline between personal problemsand scholastic performance. As amatter of fact, to preserve and

-expand on the need for personal.eounseling to students¡ a petitionis being signed to present to theadministration. "It has so fargathered nearly'1O0 signatures,as an estùnate."

Richardson explained that the'petition, prepared by a group ofcounselors and teachers, wasmeant to gather only 30signatures, but the response has

exeeeded their expectations.Dale Schroer, a psychology

teacher, explained "there isvirtually no one against thispetition, everyone feels that thisis a need that should be met, gncethey read and'un¡lerstand thepetition." Schroer was one of theinstructors pho helped circulatethe petition.

Îl¡e petition calls for theinclusion of a speeiffe counsirlingcentcr in a re-structuring of thecounseling center wñich isplanned for next year. A fulltimecounselor devoted to personal

. counseling is also requested.

The petition draws attentiontothe fact that most instructorsdo not have the background,time, or academic qualificationsnecessary to do counseling aboutpersonal problems, as opposed toacademic problems. Students

. with significant personal prob-lems are, unable to functionsatisfactorily in clasç or otherinstitutional programs.

Sociology teacher Joan New-

comb said often she is called fromher regular schedule to helpstudents wíth emergeney per-sonal problems. She stresses theconllicts it puts a teacher in."You have to teach your classes,you have a responsibilþ tothem, but you just can't leavesomebody who needs help rightaway. îhere's really nothing youcan do about it. There's no placeon campus a person can go to foremotional help."

Establishtng a mental healthspecialist as a counselor wouldbring into effect manY newresponsibilities. Richaldson saida [3t drawn up by the eounseloreommittee calls for more than

' just working with students whoñave unusual personal andemotional problems and whosestate of mental health interfereswith academic achievement.

If America is anYthing,America is a nation of musicalcomedies, staged at the droP ofthe baton on anything from gangfishts ("Westside Story") touñion strikes ("Pajama G4me")to countei cultures ("Hair"). Sowhy don't we. h4ve a musicalcomedy about the signing of theDeelaration of Independence?

"1776" is a jocular, lyricalversion of what happened duringthe hot weeks of debate inPhiladelphia before the Conti-nental Congress was chived intopassing the Declaration ofIndependence.

The idea for a musical aboutsuch a somber event in historymay at first seem impossible.One ì¡uestion immediately askedis "How can you get songs anddances into a politieal debate,much less debate on a subjectthat is past history?" The result,however; is an inspiring musicalwith style, humanity, wit, andpassion--a musical about thehuman,and personal qonflicts ofthe founding fathers and howthey arose to the greatness ofthat momentous occasion. In.itsfirst season on Broadway, "L776"won both the New York DramaCritics'Award for Best Musical,and the Tony Award for BestMusical.

Fourteen songs in all carry theaction of "17?6." When the-insistent John Adams disgusted-ly comments on the waY theCongress indulges in "Piddle,Twiddle, and Resolve," theentire Congress chimes in as

ilorGol plotoffsThe Rams go into the

double.elimination NorthernCalifornia baseball playoffsbeg¡nning today in Ríchmondafter winning the ValleyConference title with a twogameplayoff sweeþ of the ModestoPir¿tes here last weekend.

Steve Mu¡ray pitched a 6-8win over the Pirates Fridaynight and Dean Moranda hurleda b¡illia¡l e¡s-hitter for a 7{ win'in the Saturday afüernoon finale.

Morand¿'s cluteh effo¡t earnedthe freshman lefthander thecommunity college athlete-of-the-week nod from the San Joaquin

' Valley Sportswriters and Sports-casters Association.

The Rams were to open thetourney against the hostComets of Contra Costa College,who will be representing theCamino Norte Conference, at 11a.m. with Murray (8-3,2.45 ERA)taking the hill for FCC.

The tournament's other open-ing-day matchup pairs twostate-wide powerhouses -Golden¡Gate Conference champs Chabot/College of Hayward andMetropolitan Conference titlistsLong Beach City College. Theirgame will start at 3 p.m.

Oir Friday, the losers willsquare off at 10 a.m. and thewinners at 1 p.m. The tourneywill conclude Saturday.

The Rams had it alltogether-pitching, defense, andhitting-for the twogame sweepof a good Modesto squad.

In the opener, the Rams shotout of the starting gate with awell-executed, three-run rally in

the first inning that washighlighted by a line-drivedouble over the out-stretched

Pi¡ate miscues aided the R¿msto a 6-1 lead into the seventhframe. the Moàestans theùrallied for two runs and had thetying run at the plate with twoaboard as number-five hitterRick Harden stepped in. Hardenbounced a slow roller wide ofthird as Ram shortstop GregMcNutt hurried into the hole andmade a perfect peg to thestretching Glazebrook to com-plete what FCC baseball bossLen Bourdet termed "a big, bigplay."

"lile went into Friday's gamewith a great deal of emotion andit maint¿ined itself throughoutthe series," commented Bourdet."This is something this team haslacked all year, but beforeFriday's game the players gottogether and got themselvesreally ready. Another importantfactor was that they hadpracticed with a great deal ofintensity during the weekleading up to the series."

On Saturday, Moranda (5-2,2.40 ERA),.who has beên plaguedby control troubles all season,had it all working for him-alively fast ball, a good curve andslider, and a well-utilized changeof pace. He fanned nine Pirates,walked just four, and lost a nohit

bid on an infield dribbler."Dean pitched relaxed and

when he got behind hitters hewas able to throw strikes,"Bourdet remarked. "It's a shamehe had to lose the no-hitter on ahigh-chopper, but that's whynohitters are so hard to get."

Veteran right-fielder SteveJasco, who missed two months ofthe season with a severely-injured ankle, returned to thestarting lineup in grand styleSaturday, banging out three hitsand,crushing a 360-foot solo homerun in the third inning.Left-fielder Rollo Adams put thegame on ice with a bases-loadedtriple in the ninth, and 'TomGonsalves contributed the field-ing gem of the afternoon with anoutstanding grab in center.

Using a fast-break offense like the Boston Celtics, the FCCFaculty outhustled and outmuscled the ASB Senate to a stubborn34-26 donkey basketball victory last Friday night.

Playing before a near capacity (?) crowd, the experiencedFaculty outscored th,Fyounger counterparts 22-14 in the last20 minutes, to'win going away.

Police Chief Keuneth Shrum cited two reasons for the win. "Wekept one man underneath our basket, ahd we didn't rotate as muchas they did."

That one man was forensics adviser Tony Kocolas. Kocolas, whounoffrcially poured ineight points, said, "It was fun. Next year, I'mgoing to score 10 points."

The Senate fell victim to Senator Tim Hooper's inability\to scoreon easJ breakaway baskets. If Hooper would have been hittinghalf his shots, the Senate might have won by the t¿il of theirdonkey.- The game; which could be called "a comedy of eirors," was

highlighted by Senator Bich¿rd From standing on his ass, Senator'Mark'Hernandez trying to mount his donkey while dressed in a '

In Sherwood they talk of theirlives (in the past ã) years), theirbeliefs and their feelings for eachother.

It may sound a little wantingto see a movie about Robin Hood,but when the film stars Se¿nConnery as Robin, AuäreyHepburn as Marian, and RobertShaw as the sheriff, it dhangesthings altogether. The flrlm is athird comedy, a thiid love story,and a third fantasy. All three ofthese aspects are done excellent-Iy.

As the story opens we findthat Robin is about 40 years old.Little John and he have beenaway from Sherwood for 20years to fight in the Crusades..When the king dies. he releasesRobin from his command,therefore giving him freedom togo. So he decides to go back toSherwood F,orest where he eanpeacefully live out the rest of hislife.
