Editorial
Boone should explain
Ron Parker's resignation
Football at CSUF maybeover for former running back Ron Parker
but for many the steps leading to bis departure are of more than
passing Interest.
Already, there are rumblings In the Student senate about the af¬
fair. There ls also talk there of an Inquiry Into the subject. The
Dally Collegian Jolna those who call for the probe; lt needs to be
done, and It needs to be sUrtedJmmedlately.
Parker quit the Bulldogs Tuesday, following a chain of events which
began Friday, when he was quoted tn the Uhuru (a Dally Collegian
special edition), as saying Head Football Coach J R Boone had a
lack of communication with players.
Needless to s
ir from resolved
Of special Interest Is a charge by Parker that Boone offered him a
chance to get back on the team If he dented the veracity or the story,
fills ls denied by Boone. The Dally Collegian, and many CSUF stu¬
dents as well, don't know whom to believe; therefore the call for an
,e had to'get s<
;s straight
Boone says he told Parker tl	
with me before coming to practice."
We can't help but wonder why Boone would even make the milder
proposition to Parker. Most people still believe in the freedom of
speech, Mr. Boone. If you do also, you should know that Packer has
the same right as any American has to say what he believes without
having strings attached to his future membership on the Bulldog
football team.
The Dally Collegian Invites Coach Boone's response.

The recent letter by Carol
Boomer telling the Dally Colle¬
gian to stay away from Madera
clearly shows her Ignorance In
the situation at hand In Madera.
The "unfortunate Chicano dis¬
turbances" as Ms.'Boomer called
them, are not the result of our
Inability to accept the courts and
the Judicial system In this coun¬
try, especially In a community
such as Madera, which has been
one of the areas where we have
been harshly oppressed.
Madera schools, especially
Madera Union High School, have
never adequately dealt with the
needs of the Chicano students. If
Daniel Salas was out of class at
the time this -Incident" took
place, the one that started this
whole affair

encourage Chlcanos to stay In
class.
The other side should not be
overlooked either; many Anglo
students cut classes but Ihe Ma¬
dera newspaper never pointed
this out while putting emphasis
on Danny's absence In class.
Hopefully, some changes are go¬
ing to, take place In Madera with
the recent formations of AMAE
(Association of Mexican Ameri¬
can Educators) and PUMA (Pad¬
res Untdos de Madera/United
parents of Madera).
I happen to know Daniel Salas
personally and you can't Judge a
person simply by the language he
uses or the certain beliefs that
he has. There are Individuals of
high or low caliber and different
backgrounds who might have an
extensive vocabulary In obsceni¬
ties, but yet they are respected
and admired on another basis by
their friends. In Danny's case,
Ms. Boomer was obviously point¬
ing out the bad. She'll probably
rind It hard to believe that Danny
was a member of the Jr. Guada-
lupana Legionnaires, a church
group in Madera, as well as the
dance group affiliated with It.
Carol Boomer doesn't know
Daniel Salas, but I do; and I
know for a fact that lt wasn't
necessary for two fully grown
men to subdue him In the manner
that they did.

We encourage the Dally Colle¬

closely. It ls Individuals such as

Courtroom
adventures *
in Clovis
By Janet Morris
Collegian Managing Editor
As I sat In the front row of
the Clovis Justice Court gallery
Tuesday, dutifully taking notes
for Dr. James Flanery's report¬
ing class, I marveled at the r
Inga-on of American Justice.
Here we were, the whole class,
at the trial of Daniel Frank Cruz
who waa watching Jury selection
for his third trial on the charge
of "driving under the Influenceof
alcohol,* the ftrat two trials hav¬
ing ended In "hung" Juries (a
rarity even for Clovis).
Marvelous how the public d-
fender was conscientiously ask¬
ing such questions of the Jurors
as would they be disappointed If,
as in the lawyer shows on tele¬
vision, no one stood up .at 10
minutes to the hour and dramati¬
cally confessed to the crime.
The court secretary, keeping
a straight face, passed a
of paper down the front „
the gallery and students inno¬
cently signed their names and
addresses.
Marvelous, I thought, thejuage
ls such a sweetheart-he'* going
to mall u» the results of the trial
because he knows we can't stay
until Its conclusion.
The secretory smiled ja-
judge asked the front Vow t
stand, raise their right hands and
be aworn In as prospective jur¬
ors. Not so damn marvelous, I
thought - is this legal?

Biology profs make films
for immunology students
Two CSUF biology professors
are making a series ot films to
assist students studying immu¬
nology and virology.
Dr. John H. Carr, professor
of microbiology, and Dr. Karl
Kleeman, assistant professor of
biology, are in tbe process ot
completing a aeries of ten IS- to
25-mlnutes fllroadesigned to give
students a head start on their
laboratory work.
The project la funded by
$11,545 from the Chancellor's
Office of the California State
University and Colleges, one of
three such grants received by
CSUF. Tbe films are an example
of the kinds of innovative pro-
grama being funded through the
"Pilot Projects for Innovation*
program.
Dr. Kleeman, project director,
said the films will be used as a
prelude to laboratory work In
immunology and virology. The
films will Include demonstrations
of the equipment to be used dur¬
ing the laboratory sessions, pro¬
vide background Information on a
particular experiment, show how
to set up tbe experiment and bow
to evaluate the results.
"Many times, a student will go
into the laboratory and be so con¬
cerned with the technical aspects
of doing an experiment, he has
no time to think about the prin¬
ciples and concepts the experi¬
ment was designed to show," said
By using a new Kodak sound
and color film format, students
are able to proceed with the
laboratory preview at their own
rate." Students wtu view the ma¬
terial independently and can atop
at any point for careful obser¬
vations or can back up tbe film
and review any material that was
CSUF students will be able to
learn about the California gold
country firsthand through a pro¬
tect being conducted by two CSUF
p'rofessors.

Merrill M. Stuart, associate
professor of geography, and
ster F. Cole, professor of
ceography and chairman of the
Geography Department, under an
innovative projects grant from

.ind Colleges system, emphasiz¬
ing new Instructional methods and
is funded by $10,535 from the
( sue Division of New Program

According to Dr. Stuart, the
completed project here will de¬
termine the feasibility of self-
learning Instructional methods.
The proposed course will offer
an out-of-tbe-classroom experi¬
ence which will familiarize stu¬
dents with man/land relation¬
ships  and  landscape  changes
students will have the option of
selecting any three-day period in
which to complete the one-unit
Held study. The course also will
be offered to the general public
when It becomes established.
In the Initial phase of the pro¬
ject development, Dr. Stuart and
Dr Cole will travel over various
route for the actual field study.
The route will Include several
scheduled stops at points of Inter¬
est Including museums and hls-
Coiumbla State Historical Park,
and old town sites.
Dr. Stuart and Dr. Cole will
compile Information and prepare
topographic maps, tope-recorded
lectures, a field log and self-
study exercises for the use of
students.
The field log, according to Stu¬
art, will describe both the physi¬
cal and cultural features of the
landscape along the route. It
will also include self-learning
exercises that will be completed
by the students at each scheduled
stop, The material needed to
complete the exercises win be
available in the Held log, the
taped commentary and through
visual observation, Including In¬
formation found on historical
markers, displays In museums
and data on topographic maps.
A returnable cassette tape
recorder with prepared lectures
will be Issued to each field study
participant. The taped lectures
will provide a description and an
analysis of each scheduled stop.
Also, a returnable portfolio of
topographic maps with the route
marked will be available tor use
with the field log.
At the conclusion of the field
study, the student will return the
completed self-learning exer¬
cises and make an appointment
for an Interview. The interview
