ALBUM REVIEW

Supertramp"Even In The QuietestMoments..."A&M Recordscs 4634

By Ken Enloe

About three years ago, Fresnotook great interest in a little-known British group. They werebogked at Warnor's Theater fortwo consecutive nights. Thosetwo concerts sold out so fast thatthe band agreed to perform twoshows on Saturday, the secondnight. This third show also soldout.

Because of this success, thegroup released their last albumin Fresno first, as well as kickingoff their last tour in this city,Since then, Supertramp hasrocketed onto the chaits with"Crime of the Century" and mostrecently, "Even In The QuietestMoments. . . "

Supertramp's newest album istheir best effort to date. Limitedsuccess with their previousreleases ("We're Supertrampì""Crisis, What Crisis?" and"Crime of the Century") has nothurt them a bit. "Quietest

Moments" is typical of whatpeople have learned to expecüfrom them. Currently occupyingthe No. 80 spot on Billboard'sTop 100 albums, it promises to betheir best seller yet.

The album opens with "Give ALittle Bit," which was the firstsong to be released to radiostations for air play. It's a good,upbeat song, the kind you don'tmind hearing twice in a row."Lover Boy," the next cut, openswith some good piano workwhich blends into an orches-trated melody about high-societylife. The title track, "E\ren In TheQuietest Moments..." is ahaunting piece which flows in themanner gf a classical piece ofmusic. Side 1 ends with "Down-stream."

Side 2 starts with a song withthe unlikely title of "Babaji." It isa. . . well. . . different cut, but byno means dull or boring. Thelyrics are worth really- liJteningto. Next in line is "From NowOn," a track with some excellentkeyboard work. The last cut is"Fool's Ove¡ture," an imagina-tive piece which inc.ludes thechimes of Big Ben and the wordsof Winston Churchill. This is

probably one of the mostthought-out works produced inrecenû years.

Supertramp is set apart fromother groups by their excellentuse of both saxophone and piano.Although not every song mayuse one or the other, when eitherinstrument is present, the whole

that matter,other strongof .backup

consist of awhole choir or just three people,but they are always used to goodeffect.

The group, which consists ofRoger Hodgson and Rick Davies(who co-wrotè the album),Dougie Thomson, John AnthonyHelliwell, and Bob C. Benson, hasagain presented an album shotthrough with their own specialmagic. Fresno is indeed lucky tohave Supertramp consider it,their hor¡e awa.y from home!

How To Expedence Christ=Changing Death lnlo life

When life is brqught to an end, all enjoyment is gone. Wherelife is absent there is certainly no enjoyment.

Today in Christianity it is sad io see so many of the Lord'schildren striving to live the "Christian life", but with noenjoyment. Surely all Christians have received the redemptionthat was afforded by the Lord's shed blood, yet in their dailyexperience most have no joy.

In the Bible wine symbolizes the joy of God's salvation of life,whereas water sometimes represents death. The first miraclethe Lord Jesus performed was that of changing water into wine(John 2:1.11). This wine signifies not only redemption, but alsothe salvation of life. When we have this -salvation, this dailysalvation, it becomes the' wine that constantly stirs us torejoice. Often in our experience we have the sense of death, ofbeing filled with stagnant water. Even our striving to be properChristians leaves us with a sense of deadness, a kind ofstagnant feeling within. The Lord is desirous to change ourwater into wine, our death into life.

This portion of the Bible shows us hciú people attempt to bemade clean by certain religious practices. Our real need is notto be clean in a religious, outward way but .to be livinginwardly. Christ is life to meet our need. Rules, regulations,forms, and rituals cannot make us living. Only Christ canperform this rniracle.

According..to our experience, this wine, the very life of ourLord, is not only to be enjoyed alone, but is also meant to beexperienced together. Only those who will not hold on to theirpast knowledge can expect the fresh, new experience of Christtoday.

What riches we expeiience when we open to thb Lord ¿nd letHim change all our death into life (Romans 5:9,10).

'Need help insteod of money'

Poor rurql community coulduse o¡d in self-help effort

By Keren Friee

Lanare is a poor, predominant-ly black, rural community insouthwest Fresno County, butone whose residents are makinga concerted effort to raise theircommunity's standard of living.They have received somegovernment assistance, and nowcould make good use of somevolunteer labor.

Co-op farming, a greenhouse,a worm farm run by seniorcitizens, and a beautificationproject are among severalprojects helping to give theircommunity a face lift.

It has not. been a smooth road,they have been plagued by manymrslortunes in their uphill battleIor rmprovement.

Recently, the greenhouse wasbroken into and burglarized.

Mrs. Lyn Dell Johnson,cooperative secretary, listedsome of the other pro-blems. Adrying up of the weù on their 40

Solor energy test progrom moyes qheod of tCCBy Roger Lucio

At a time when energyconservation is becoming impor-tant, Fresno City Coìlege is doingrts part.

Along with serving as¡ Pilotcampus for a conservationDroÉrram, FCC may soon be theiirsl community college in thevalley'to heat Pool and gYmwater by solar energy.

The conservation program,which could eventually includeall California community col-leges, will attempt to establishguidelines for energy consump-tion.

The project is in cooperation-with PG&E and the EducationalFacilities Laboratories.

A campus energy conservationcommittee yet to be establishedwill attempt to set energyconsumption goals for all electri-cal and gas use here, including

Various measuring devices willbe set up around eampus tomeasure energJ use and waste.

PG&E and the EducationalFacilities Laboratories will workwith the committee, usingresults to develop data for amodel for all community collegesto follow. The ðonservationproject, is expeeted to be alongterm one with no specificdate set.

ihe State Center CommunityCollege District board ofTïustees recently approved twoproposals concerning solarenergy. The proposals weresubmitted to the board ìy RickHarliess ofthe local solar energyresearch firm, EnvironmentalResources, and prepared underthe supervision of Bill Chester,

SCCCD facilities planner.One of the proposals calls for a

solar collector system to heatboth of FCC's pools at a cost ofabout $45,000. It would befunded entirely by the'state,according to Chester.

The second proposal is similarto the first but calls for asun-powered hot water systemfor the gym at an additional eostof $59,fiX). Its estimated cost is$104,000. The state, if itlpproves F CC's bid, will pick up80 per cent of the tab.

Chester believes the systemwill be gcxrd for Fresno: "I feelit's a good thing for the collegeand the community in terms ofenergy saving plus dollar sav-ings."

The system, if approved,would be complete by July of1978, according to Chester. Thesystem would captüre solarenergy through a series of solar

Chester does not believe therewill be any problems with theproposed system. "It all dependson the st¿te, if they give us themonèy we'll do it. If they don't,we'll have to go back to theboard," he said.

,

Along with the savings inenergiy here on campus, FCC willbe able to institute a new solargnergiy training program, helpedby instructors Dennis lt¡ash ãndDick Brown.

Wash, instructor of voc¿tion¿leducation, is optimistic about theproject. "It's a pioneering effort,although the cost is hifh. It is aneffort to go along with needs ofenergy. Solar energy is a sourcewe need to develop."

Wash hopes the new program

will guide students i-nto theengineering, technical, and in-lptlation aspects of sölar energ¡¡.The -training program ñijlprobably start with one class in1þqt two years, ac@rding toW¿sh.

ìVhile enriching the curri-eulum, FCC would be able to

obtain ideas and information.

"I!'s a good opportunity,"Wash said. "It's there for thetaking, solar energT.'studentsshould be aware of it. There are .

Sylvia Harris, Student Loungehogtess, said a second television(the lounge hasi one already) waspurchased last sgmester, but willnot be installed until nextsemester.

Har¡is said the new TV wil beprimarily for the male studentviewers. She explained with asmile, that many of the femalestudents prefer to watch dailysoap operas in the afternoons,and during the sports seasons itlþses a problem with only onetelevision available.

Off-hour closses bigw¡th working students

A steadj; increase in earlymorning, early evening, andweekend class enrollment hasbeen noted at City College.

There has been no problem infilling these courses during thelast few semesters they havebeen offered. FCC has offeredmorning classes beginning asearly as-6 and 7 a.m., aecordingto Associdte Dean, ContinuingEducation, Larry Martin.

"While some students a¡e stillslumbering or dragging out olbed, many students attendingthese classes have almost com-pleted their school day," saidMartin of the n¡orning classes.Many FCC admiùistrators be-lieve the trend will contiuue.

There are many reasons forthe increase, according to M¿r-tin. He said providiBg earlyc<rurses for students was designed to provide flexibility withtheir schedules between workand school.

"We wanted to see if we couldaccommod¿te students who couldcome to school at ? and still be 'able to make it to work by 9,"explained-Tlfartin.

Many students who work atfulltime jobs would rather attendmoruing classes than nightclasses, he added.

FCC is also seeing sD incressein attendance in early svsningclasses around the twilighthorEs, 4, 5 and 6 p.m. These classhourg allow students to attendinstruction afüer work and havetime to do other things in the

early evening Ínstead of ¿ttend, the usual 7 to 10 p.m. night

classes.M¿rtin believes the weekend

class increase is due to peoplewho are not able to attendweekday day or evening dasses."It c¿tches people off the job."Many working people and house.wives find weekend classes moreeonúenient, according to Martin.Saturday classes begin at 9 a.m.and eud at noon.

Soci¿l science Associste DeanGer¿ld Stokle commented thatmany fulltime students wish toattend school on Mondays,Wednesdays and Fridays only,finishing theír school day beforen(x)n.

Early mornir'g courses helpthese students. An exampleinvolves a politic¿l scienee sourseoffered at 7 a.m. Enrollnent of 40students was expected, but 120sig¡ned up.

"Here is a time we neverthoqght about befor- and stu-deìrts are corrning to it," s¿idStokle.

Jùir Eckl¿nd, one of mauyearly moining students, said hôlikes early courr¡es bee¿use "I c¿nget out of school ea¡lier ¿nd beready for work in the afternoon."

Stokle believes students a¡ebeconing "more aDd more parttime." He explained that moststudents work pait or full time.Early morning, early evening,and weekend classes allowstudents more lledbility withtheir schedules.

Rom ReportIt seems to be a common occurren(Ì(' to pick up your morning

sports section aúd read about some <:ollege or univt'rsily beinginvolved 'in a recruiting sc:rndal.

For the most part junior collcgt's have stayed out of thepapers in this respocl,. Rut iI thc trcnds of some of the state'sjunior colleges <rontinue, you ma.y read more about them soon.

One reason that, junior colleges stay away from [he scandalsare tough rules regarding the recruiting of athletcs to theircampuses.

According to the Californi¡ Community and Junior CollegeAssociation's Athletic Coile, the CCJCA for short, a prospeclivestudent athlete must initiate cont¿rct if he or she lives outside ofthat district. This includes out o[ state and foreign athletcs aswell.

But even though the rules are clear irnd specil'ic some schoolsstill manage to stretch thc rules. And the CCJCA just turns theother cht'ok and k'l,s t.hem ¡¡s¿ away with it.

One school whit:h would seem l,o be in queslion is our ValleyConferenr'c. friend, Colloge of the Sequoias.

The COS lootball tcam, for example, has 21 membt'rs fromout of st¿rkr. And who knows how many otht'rs from the v:rriousolht'r districts around the state.

Now, it is hard to believe that they all came to COS becausethey like the weather or something. And it is hard to believethat many athletes just wandered into Visalia.

Besides the contact rule it is also illegal to subsidize or recruitoui-of-district athletes. So I suppose that all those players cameto COS because of Al Branco's naiional reputàtion for being agreat football coach.

But even with the questions in COS's program and variousother schools the CCJCA just sits arour¡d and watches like anunconcerned passerby.

The CCJCA owes it to all of the schools who work hard andfollow the rules to punish those who don't. But until they þettheir act together the violators will continue to bend the rules.

For the Rams it was a case ofwinning most ol the battles butlosing the war. They outgainedthe Pirates by almost a 2-1margin but came home fromModesto with nothing to showfor it but a lot of individualstatistics.

The Rams ripped through thePirate defense for 360 yards onthe ground. Bernard Wade ledthe attack with 158 yards while apair of runners did well despitebeing under 100 per centphysically.

"The only thing we have toshoot for now is our pride," saidRam coach Cìare Slaughter. "Weneed to win the rest of our gamesto have a winning season andprove we still have a good team."

But the Rams face a bigobstacle in Delta. The Mustangsare 5-2 for the season and 3-1 inconference.

A vocal Pi¡ate crowd saw theirfavorites jump out in front on thefi¡st of Dan Valk's school recordthree touchdowns. But a dazzling!5-yard run by Rayford got theRams even 7-7.

Twice more the teams tradedtouchdowns with Valk scoring onruns of seven and nine yards andRam QB Jeff Dempsey throwingfor one touchdown and runningin another.

But the Rams fell behind 21-19at the half when Steve Moblevmissed one extra point and äDempsey run failed on another.

When Dempsey scored hissecond touchdown early in thethird quarter the Rams took thelead for thè first time 25-21. Butan incomplete pass on thetwo-point try faiìed and theRams had to settle for afour-point lead.

A pass from Pirate quarter-back Phil Has-Ellison to MikeHouse put Modesto back in front28-25 and set up an excitingfourth quarter.

The Rams played ball controlbehind the effective runiring ofPriest and Wade as they drove tothe Pirate six with four minutesto play.

The Ram coachins staff de-.cided to go for the wiá instead ofthe tie and put the season on theline. "We gave it some thought,but we decided that if we wentfor the Jield goal and didn't getthe ball back that our seasonwould be ovèr."A strong rush caused aDempsey pass to go incomplete

on fourth down and it looked as ifthe Pirates had turned back thetide. Tim Washington wasn'tready to quit though, and whenhe recovered a fumble two playsIater the Rams had the ball and areprieve on the Pi¡ate 17.

A fi¡st down and three playslater the Rams faced a fourthdown situation on the four yardline. Dempsey decided to keepthe ball on the veer option withless than a minute to play but hewas stopped short of the goal andModesto didn't give Fresnoanother chance.

"It was a big disappointmentto lose a game like that," said anunhappy Slaughter. "We seem tomake the same mistakes evervweek, and that just shouldnthappen," he added.

Coach Bill Musick noted "Wedid a good job physically, butmentally we just didn't have it."Even though they lost, thecoaches were pleased with theblocking of linemen Al Avila,Tom Crowell, Dave Heck, MikeForistiere and John Newman.

The Rams will go into theDelta game Friday hurting. AsMusick assgssed it, "We havehad more injuries this year thanin any other year I canremember,"

Both teams saw their confer-ence title hopes fizzle out,Saturday. While Fresno waslosing to Modesto, Delta waslicking thei¡ wound after beinghumiliated by COS 33-9.

The Mustangs'only other losswas administered by a toughTaft team. The Mustangs lost14-10 to the state's top smallschool team.

Coach Bill Gott always seemsto be able to build a strongdefense and this year's Deltateam is no exception. TheMustangs again sport one of thestaùe's top defenses.

The defensive unit is led bytackle Gil Wilbon and a capable'backfield. The secondary in-cludes standouts Joey Ortega,Kevin Arbet and Alvin lvv.

On offense the Mustangs counton the legs of running backLyndell Hawkins. Hawkins,second in conference rushingbehind COS's Darryl Minor, hasgained 617 yards on the season.

Coach Slaughter feels thatwhile the Mustangs aren't flashy,.they still are tough. "They arevery steady, they just take theball and run right at you."

Balance is what Bill Musick'sdefensive unit will have to dealwith. "Delta can pass and runwell and they're a very physiealteam," stated Musick.

The Rams, now 2-4 for theseason and 1-2 in confêrence, willtry to remember what it is like towin when they take the field at7:30 on Friday night.

Atthough we beìieve this, we also realize anotherperspective: We cannot allow a ban qgainst "reversediscrimination" to keep those minorities from attaining thegoals they have spent years seeking. True, there can never be ,

total equality until every ethnic group is represented equally inthe population, but should not stop us from seeking the bestpossible result. We must realize that regardless of the Bakkedecision of the U.S. Supreme Court, a major problem has beenpointed out to us all.

How many white students feel that they have beendiscriminated against through minority admission programs?Or, more importantly, how many have actually been deniedadmission for ä less-qualified minority? Although we may neverknow, it is painfully apparent that this happens. We do noùknow how deep this problem is, nor how it affects thereputations of those who are admitted.

Has society been saying that minorities are better thanwhites? In effect, yes. It appears that we have elevated theminority person to a pedestal that makes him superior to allothers, and we must bow down and meet his every whim. Rutby putting the minorities on that pedestal, we put everyoneelsc under the stand, and again we have the same reversal ofpositions. "The more we change, l,he more we remain thesame."

Those who cry out that "America is not racially fair" must¿lso realize some truths about America. The fact that minoritiesare discriminated against in economic, educational, and politicalcircles is not unique or new. There are many whites whocontend with discrimination around our great nation, such aslhe mining families of Appalachia, the Amish of the GreatLakes, and numerous small farmers throughout the Midwest.

Looking over all arguments, one can notice several basictruths:1. Minority admission programs are unfair, in that theyallow for'some persons to be "more equal" than others;

2. -In order to achieve a racial balance, however, minorityprograms are the only tested method to date;

3. Minority admission programs seem to be oriented toprotect the minority groups from middle to upper class whites,while totatly neglecting low-income white families; and

4. True admissions and racial equality. rvill not be gained'more advantageously than presently ordered unless a bettersystem comes along,

These basic concepts must be examined when considering theimpact of Allan Bakke's accusations on the racial situationtoday. The result of failing to understand will result only in aperpetuation of these conditions in our nation.

As always, there is a solution, but only if all personsunderstand that we must make it work, or nothing will result atall to achieve equality.

The answer is simple, at least in the case of the University ofCalifornia ciampus system: lVhen considering applications,allow no use of names, sex, ethnic origin, or financial worth onapplications and give all persons a number to use.' In this way, admissions would be strictly on one's educationalbackground. Once accepted through this method, the studentwould, if he needs it, receive notific¿tion of financial or other aid .

Writer defendsMitchell Lee

Dear Editor:I would like to rise to thedefense of Mitchell Lee, andrespond to Richard Mata s letterof rebuttal. The sum total of hismessage seems to be, "Don'tknock it if you haven't tried it."I'm alraid I haven't tried it

either, but I have been a closeobserver of the Senate's anticsover the past year, and I see the '

same things as Mr. Lee.Mr. Mata starts off by

criticizing Mr. Lee's "lack ofresearch." Well, it doesn't take10 years and. as many milliondollars to figure- out commonknowledge. It is apparent to all ofus that ASB's primary duties'seem to be selling Ramburgersand spirit at football games,when they aren't sending peopleoff to important conferences inSan Diego or Washington, D.C.' Mr. Mata goes on to defendstudent governments in generalby asking why large universitiesmaintain them, and suggestingthat such organizations prefer to"do something" rather than sitback and criticize others. I wouldsuggest that these organizationsrèceive support from twosources: socially deprived stu-dents (which exist at all levels ofeducation), and the universityadministrations, which want toappear aware and responsive tostudent needs.

But getting back to our ownstudent Senate, I ask SenatorMata what the Senate's role wasin getting all the new.çonStruc-tion approved, or having the oldadministration building con-verted to an ag museum, .or in.firing lousy teachers, oi inimproving course content, or inreducing book prices, or in anyother important issue.

I will answer my own question:the Senate played no role,

because it isn't consideredimportant enough to be includedin the planning behind theseprojects. They can barely get aquorum of members together allat once, so how can we expectany different? Consequently, theASB is reduced to sitting backand criticizing others. I mustadmit, it's a.lot easier their way.I am unimpressed by Mr.Mata's vague references toinvisible 4.O-average studentSenators. For the sake ofargument, I will concede thehexistence, but I would ask himhow many ofthese scholars havemajors in a field of science, mathor engineering? I suspect thatthat ùest would narrow the fieldconsiderably.

It is apparent to me that Mr.Mata and his gang don't realizethat we are on the final lap of therace to a career, and unless thatcareer is politics, student govern-ment is an unaffordable luxury.Seó you in Congress, Mr. Matã?
