Bond: 'Carter disappointing'

By Ellen Graebe Last year it was in Chicago; next year it will be in Sacramento; this year 18 people traveled to Washington, D.C. to represent the Los Rios Forensics Team at the National Junior College Speech Association Convention and Tournament. They left April 1 by way of the Amtrak rails, and by April 4 the tournament was under way. As it came to a close on April 18 and final awards were handed out, Los Rios was ranked 10th in the nation. Overall, in the Mariner Standings, Los Rios ranks first in the nation. That means that in the six years that Los Rios has competed in the nationals, has accumulated more points than any other competing team. Although the team didn't take any gold medals, Los Rios did come away with five silver and five bronze awards. Richard Boyce led the way by seizing three medals. His oral interpretation on fear and his expository speech about gymnastics won him two silver awards. Boyce also teamed up with Colleen Bryant for a bronze with their duet acting selection from "Raisin in the Sun." Ed Marshall took two silvers in persuasive speaking on racism in South Africa and communication analysis. The fifth silver medal was taken by the Interpreter's Theatre with a selection called

"Brothers" starring Tani Cantil, Lorna Owyang, Jackie Yost and Marian Johnson. Johnson also won a bronze for her expository on candy, and Cantil placed in the com¬ munication analysis division with a speech on Nazi Germany. Bryant competed and won a bronze in the speech to en¬ tertain category for *' her talk about tomboys. Perdita Lobo and Mike O'Conner joined forces and captured a bronze with a duet acting selection called "Same Time Next Year." The 1978 National will be at City College and Woodlake Inn from April 13 through 18. Over 15,000 are enrolled More than 15,000 students are attending City College this spring, according to official figures. Of these, 8,811 are enrolled in day classes and 6,374 in night classes. Women slightly outnumber men both day and night. In the day, there are 4,475 women as opposed to 4,336 men. At night, women number 3,259 and men, 3,115. If they are like students of last spring, the most recent for which statistics are available, they have an average age of 22 for day students and 28 for evening students.

[Continued from Front Page] He claimed that the Carter administration is "hardly more racially and sexually integrated than the one it replaces" and remarked that it was especially disappointing because "it was expected to be different." The former member of the Student Nonviolent Coor¬ dinating Committee said that the civil rights movement of the 1960's was "flawed" because "it failed to sustain and extend itself." He asserted that ad¬ vocates of social reform must reorder their priorities. "The battle must shift now toward achieving economic democracy," he declared. Bond's "economic democracy" would include "income and wealth redistribution" through taxation, a negative income tax and "free adquate cradle-to-grave national health care." Bond was asked to expand upon a statement he made about the nationalization of major industries. He explained that he was in favor of ob¬ taining public ownership of "pretty near everything" and said that it would have to be an orderly process with com¬ pensation given to company share-holders. He said that exploitation of the needs of the poor by the rich

was not "fair or just or right or correct." For an example of ex¬ ploitation, Bond mentioned that the queen of England was one of the owners of the power company that supplies his home with electricity. While he doesn't mind the queen living in regal luxury, he said, "I resent her making money off my need for elec¬ tricity." When asked to comment on Anita Bryant's campaign against homosexuals. Bond

Despite the December con¬ tact, the subpoenas came as a complete surprise to Cage. She says she sees no reason why either she or Eagan should be summoned. "I think the sub¬ poenas are ridiculous; I don't know why we are being called in," Cage said. When contacted at his office Friday, the prosecutor. Assis¬ tant District Attorney Tim Chandler, said that he could not locate the file on the case

replied that he had always thought that "people who worry about other people's sexual preference are unsure of their own." When questioned about the possibility of leaving the people of his senate district to accept a position in the Carter ad¬ ministration, he said he would rather not. Bond said, "It is easier to please 88,000 people than it is to please one man." "But, of course," he added, "no offer has been made."

and could not comment on it. Acuna, who faces a maximum sentence of six months impri¬ sonment and a fine of $1,000 if convicted on the battery charge, told the Express Mon¬ day that he had not yet been arrested or cited in the incident but declined discussing the case further. Others who have been sub¬ poenaed in the case include Dr. Richard Gillies, dean of student personnel services; Dr. William Mariano, associate dean of student personnel services; Dalton Nedd, security lead special officer; and Mark Pratt, City College student who was pre¬ sent at the concert the night of the incident.
