N EWS/PAGE 5 ENTRY LEVEL COURSES SOUGHT With only upper-division classes offered at Cal State San Marcos, many students are forced to attend local community colleges to fulfill basic university requirements. CSUSM needs to bring basic courses in English, math and science into its curriculumin order to give students a heightened sense of identity and meet its Full Time Equivalent demographics.

As a resource aid, the center collects books in Spanish for children and adolescents which are published worldwide. Educators with the job of purchasing Spanish language books for their schools can travel to the center to see the books first hand and to obtain advice on which ones best meet their needs. People travel great distances to see the Center because it's the only one of its kind in the world. Its story is interwoven with that of Dr. Isabel Schon, its founder and director. Schon started the center last year because she felt a need to bring reading materials to Spanish speaking children. "If you can teach children to become critical readers, youcan teach them to become critical thinkers," she says. One of Schon's missions for the center is to lower the 60 percent dropout rate for Latinos in the United States. The Center is part of her method for achieving this goal and represents the culmination of years of work in thefieldof education. According to Schon, Spanish speaking immigrants have existed at the "sink or swim" level in American education. If children learned to speak English as if they were "immersed" in it, they had a chance at an education. If they didn't learn, they started to "sink" and fell behind. Schon says that four generations of a 60 percent dropout rate attests to the lack of success of this traditionally held method. Research shows that if children can learn to read in their native language first, they can transfer to English successfully in about three years. There are many common sense reasons for this rationale. Children that have grown up in a Spanish-speaking environment find it easier to learn to read in that language. Parents who speak Spanish can also help their children with lessons, giving the children a feeling of success. Schon says this feeling encourages students to feel better about themselves and thus be more - comfortable in school. Schon says a heightened sense of identity and self-worth is one of the keys to transferring from one language to another successfully. She stresses that a good bilingual program teaches culture and history along with language. There are also cultural reasons why Spanish speaking children may not have the love for reading that most English speaking children do. One reason, in Mexico for example, is that libraries are rare throughout the country. The city of Tijuana, for instance, has a population over one million but has no libraries. Mexican ' public primary schools have tio libraries and- New program addresses children's needs A new statewide Center for Collaboration for Children, dedicated to enhancing the relationships among children, families, education and social services, will be established at California State University, Fullerton, CSU Chancellor Barry Munitz announced Oct. 10. Funded in part from a $100,000 allocationfromthe Chancellor's lottery funds plus grants from the Arco Foundation and Annie E. Casey Foundation, the new Center will operate under Dr. Mary Kay Tetreault, CSUF's dean of the School of Human Development and Community Service. Sidney Gardner will be the Center's director. "There's a genuine need for a center to address the needs of California's 7.8 million children," Tetreault said. "We need to build new bridges across the walls dividing academic and community groups to concentrate on the whole child." Goals of the Center include: • Strengthening the role the CSU plays in educating and graduating thousands of teachers, social workers, counselors and health and human services professionals. • Working with faculty statewide to review theCSUcurriculum in education, health and human services to assess how well it provides professionals with the skills needed to collaborate with professionals from other children-related disciplines. • Restructuring children's services and public education in a way that would lead to libraries in high schools are a relatively recent development Although the Mexican government has a plantohave libraries in primary grades by 1994, economic conditions may delay this. Another reason for the lack ofreading among Spanish speaking children is that many of the books written for children in Spanish lack interest. "Approximately 70 percent of books written in Spanish for children are 'moralist* In other words they teach 4how to be good'" says Schon. "Many children don't grow up with a love for reading because so many of the books are boring and don't excite them." With the burgeoning population of Spanish speaking people in the United States, and especially Southern California, many schools have foundthemselveswiththedifficulttaskofhaving to stock libraries and classrooms with books in Spanish. The book center is becoming widely known and publishers world-wide are anxious to send books there because of the great exposure they receive. • i -. . , i new internships and programs placing students in settings where children and families are served holistically. • Incorporating models of multicultural collaboration in ways that promote unity rather than divide groups across racial and ethnic boundaries. • Providing in-service education and other community services^hat encourage public and private agencies to work together rather than along lines that fragment and sepárate the efforts of schools and other children's services agencies. • Conducting program and policy research to document what schools and state and local governments have done and could do to address the needs of children who are at risk of failure. The Center will be established immediately. Several CSU campuses will be involved in the system-wide program. The CSU graduates some 10,000 students per year in the children-services areas such as education, social work, child development, nursing and recreation. "For too long schools have gone one way and social service agencies have gone another," Munitz said. "This center will establish a multi-service approach to serving children. California's children are the future of CSU and the future of the state. We cannot ignore their needs or those of their families. We do that at the risk of failing our duty as educators." The center has collected nearly every book written in Spanish for children that has been published since 1989. Recently, a single shipment from Madrid brought 3,000 more copies. Schon has been a consultant on bilingual/ bicultiiral educational materials to schools, libraries and ministries of education in Mexico, Columbia, Guatemala, Argentina, Venezuela, Chile, Spain, Italy, Ecuador and the United States. She has received several national and international a wards including the 1987 Women's National Book Award. Along with conducting seminars and workshops for librarians and other educators, Schon also works with area businesses and hospitals. She has worked with nurses at Children's Hospital, selecting books for Spanish speaking children who stay there. Another important function of thebook center is to host an annual conference. The conference will highlight significant issues concerning reading and books for and about Hispanic/Latino young readers. The conference will be held in October of every year and will tie in with ^ SUSMVImematkmal^stivak — ~~ �N ews B riefs Student representatives needed The Associated Students is looking for two students to become a student representative on the Student Affairs Committee.

CSUSM expands global commitment to Africa L ARRY BOISJOLIE/PIONEER Seeking to fulfill its Mission Statement of global understanding, Cal State San Marcos, last week, sent a delegation of administrators and faculty to the country of Ghana. The travelers, Dr. Dorothy Lloyd* assistant dean of Education, Dr. Richard Millman, academic vice president and Dr. Komla Imoaku, professor of Fine Arts, l eft f or the African country to exchange ideas and establish ties with the university there. "We are discovering ways to implement our global society ambitions," said CSUSM President Bill Stacy/'Students and faculty will have to learn to be global citizens." Stacy said that each individual chosen for the mission represents a different faction of the educational process. Lloyd will seek methods of helping Ghana mold teachers. Millman will concentrate on areas of the curriculum relating to mathematics and science, while Imoaku will share his knowledge of art with African instructors. Stacy said the the process of interaction is one of two-way dialogue. The three delegates will not only share their expertise, they will learn from the perceptions and knowledge of the Ghana educational system. "We want to make international communication relatively commonplace at San Marcos," said Stacy. 'We want to make international communication relatively commonplace at San Marcos.' B ILL S TACY, C SUSM P RESIDENT He indicated that many faculty members already have traveled throughout the world and share their observations with other instructors. In the future Stacy hopes to continue projects, such as the mission to Ghana, by sending professors and administrators around.the world in search of new educational ideas and heightened global understanding. He hopes to strengthen ties with universities in Mexico, Canada, Japan, China and Europe. Stacy said he looks forward to the day in the not-too-distant future when he can send students abroad as well as faculty in an exchange program setting. CSUSM also hopes to gain international perspectives by becoming a point of visitation for universities world-wide. This week an Anglican faculty delegation from Cambridge University will visit the campus to learn of the country's newest facility for higher education. Potentially CSUSM might o ffer parallel courses to those taught at Cambridge or other universities around the world. Stacy said missions like the Ghana trip and the Anglican visit serve as a vehicle to bring in course ideas that might have alluded the university. ; With the introduction of a stateof-the-art phone system at the Twin Oaks Valley Road permanent campus site next year, Stacy said the interchange of ideas between countries will b e facilitated. The system will allow instantaneous audio-visual communications between universities around the world. " We can establish a dialogue here at CSUSM about w hat's happening elsewhere," Stacy said. "Being there (in Ghana) today is concrete proof that this institution is serious about global awareness." Stacy was originally slated to go to Ghana, but do the visit f rom the Anglican delegation and other pressing university matters he chose to stay in San Marcos. " I d idn't go because of lack of interest, things just needed to be done at this institution," Stacy said. Former instructor to read from newest novel REGIWA JOHN/PIONEER Former Cal State San Marcos English professor and published fiction author Duff Brenna will read selections from his new book Wednesday at 12:30 in the Student Lounge. The widely published author has won several national awards for his short stories and poetry. Hisfirstnovel, "The Book of Mamie', won much critical acclaim and the Associated Writing Programs Writing Award for best novel in 1988. Brenna also received a National Endowment for the Arts Fellowship in 1990. Brenna's new book, 'In Another Part of Heaven', addresses the loss of innocence imposed on children by adults. The theme is a recurring one in Brenna's books. "It is something I keep coming back to," Brenna says, ''because I find DUFFBRENNA/AUTHOR it so disturbing. Children have to find out that i t's a nasty world out there soon enough." Brenna says he feels that children should be allowed their few years of innocence. He has no understanding for parents who raise their children in a toxic environment of their making. He says that children can still triumph o ver d ifficult upbringings without turning into prostitutes and m urderers. ' In A nother P art of Heaven' i soneof hope for children as is ' The Book of Mamie'. In July of this year, Brenna sold the movie rights for ' Mamie' to JTK Productions of Canada and was hired to write the movie's screenplay. This finished, he spent time in Wisconsin scouting for possible movie locations. Jim Kaufman, owner of JTK Productions is due to arrive in California shortly to begin movie preparations. He is currentlyfinishinganother film. A ccording t o B renna, D arryl Hannah, star of 'Splash' and 'Steel Magnolias', has read the book and expressed interest in playing Mamie. �4 NEWS PIONEER/TUESDAY, NOVEMBER 12, 1991 International Festival Committee performed huge task with a purpose In the last edition of Pioneer, the news staff covered the First Cal State San Marcos International Festival.

I hope not. The latest development in the ongoing p ursuit of S hangri-la i s "Strength in Training." Now I know this sounds more like it pertains to the San Diego Chargers or to the bodybuilders at Gold's Gym, but in reality it is relevant to men and women of all ages.

"It won't happen to me," millions of heterosexuals would claim, " Idon't use intravenous drugs. I 'm straight" Last Thursday, however, those millions of denial-ridden A mericans may h ave found probable cause to worry over a disease that was formerly thought to be somebody e lse's problem when one EDITOR-IN-CHIEF of t he nation's greatest athletes announced he has the Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV). Shortly after discovering that he was afflicted with HIV, the virus that causes AIDS, Magic Johnson announced his immediate retirement from the National Basketball Association. Unlike the vast majority of prominent AIDS victims, Johnson contracted the deadly virus through heterosexual contact According to statisticsfromthe Center for Disease Control (CDC), almost 91 percent of adult men who have been diagnosed with AIDS through September 1991 became infected by having sex with other men or through the use of intravenous drugs. Johnson represents only 3 percent of those males who have contracted the virus through heterosexual contact Before the heterosexual population climbs atop its soapbox and claims that these statistics support their claim, is is important to note that 34 percent of all female AIDS patients contracted the disease through heterosexual contact AIDS is a nondiscriminatory disease. We have seen it take the life from children,friendsand loved ones. Since there is no known cure for the disease, it is up to each of us to take steps in preventing the spread of AIDS to the best of our abilities. With the integrity and courage he has shown on the basketball court, Johnson pleads to us all to take preventative measures in stemming the tide of one of the nation's most feared and deadly disease's. Johnson's recommendation of safe sex is not a new one. But now that one of the nation's true heroes has learned that casual sexual contact can be deadly, it is a recommendation worthy of further consideration. Johnson brought a magic to the basketball court that few, if any athletes, have been able to match. Out of respect for his courage and integrity, we can all help Johnson bring that magic to the fight against AIDS. L ARRY BOISJOLIE Basic courses essential at CSUSM Finding an identity at Cal State San Marcos is a dilemma that faces many students. Since the university is composed only of commuter students, there are no dormitories or Greek organizations to keep pupils at its shopping center site. Compounding the problem is the fact that many CSUSM students are forced to travel outside of the campus to fulfill basic lower-division classwork. Most of those students go to Palomar or Mira Costa only by default As a result a type of schizophrenia has developed with students who are both CSUSM students and attendees of local community colleges. A complete sense of identity is denied them by their university of choice. Since CSUSM offers only upper-division coursework, such a situation is understandable. At this stage ofdevelopment, CSUSM does not have the faculty or monetary support to accommodate those extra courses. But, at a university where each student is required to write a minimum of2,500 words per-semester, per-class, it is absolutely essential that some elementary coursework be offered. CSUSM population demographics suggest that many students in attendance are returning from scholastic absence. For some of those students a basic English, mathematics or science course might have been fulfilled 10 years ago. How can a university require students to readily assimilate upper-division classwork with such a gap without presenting some mode of refreshment? Instructors have shared disappointment that student proficiency in writing competency is below upper-division competency. But when students have to wait three or four semesters to get their basic English composition classes at Palomar, some CSUSM .students might not havebeen able to, as of yet, meet t heir r equirement T he s ame situation holds true for riiathematics and science. C lasses are so impacted at community c olleges t hat STAFF EDITORIAL some CSUSM students have not been able to gain a seat. As a result, they meet their upperdivision biology or math theory classes with confusion. In addition, CSUSM might be able to more readily meet state Full Time Equivalent (FTE) percentages with just a meager offering of lower-division classes. Many students at CSUSM are full time, but their units are divided between two part-time course loads. All that is asked of the university is that they put one course for English composition, one for basic biology and one for college level mathematics on the schedule. These three courses are the most impacted at community colleges and probably the most lacking of CSUSM students. If you are a student at CSUSM who is forced to take a lowerdivision required class elsewhere, then send a small cordial complaint to Academic Vice President Richard Millman or your department dean. Such an action will require much less effort than finding parking at Palomar. If enough students voice their concerns, then perhaps administration will see the benefits of such abasic accommodation.

A T HOUGHT: "Whatever befalls the Earth befalls the sons of Earth" C HIEF S EATTLE A few weeks ago an issue arose in this newspaper which, because the holiday season is almost upon us, is worth considering in some depth. The big question I 'd like us to think about is this; who does the woik for family reunions and a re these occasions r eflecting changes in women's values? The 20th century paradigm seems to be that the women cook (Sometimes for days in advance) while the men get together in the living room and watch football. The washing-up afterwards is done either entirely by women, or by a mixture of women and children of both sexes (until the male children reach puberty).

K ATHY SULLIVAN/PIONEER �What to do with elephants In the past three years, the Asian elephant breeding program at the Wild Animal Park has faced a string of controversies. As the majestic animal stampedes toward extinction, Park officials and animal advocates are left wrestling with the dilemma of how to save this vanishing breed. L ARRY BOISJOLIE/PIONEER O N C E UPON A TIME there were herds of gigantic animals that roamed the continents of Africa and Asia. These majestic creatures stood as tall as 13 feet at the shoulder and weighed as much as eight tons. Theirs was a matriarchal social community, led by the females of the species. They roamed the land in search of food (leaves and shrubs) and gained respect from all living creatures including lions and t igers.... Such is the fairy tale of elephants many may tell their children in the not-too-distant future. At the turn of the century, Asian elephants numbered as many as 200,000 individuals. Today there Academicians estimate that each year may be no more than 35,000 to from 20,000 to 40,000 species of plants 54,000 left in t he wild. Most of and animals will perish from the face of the these animals live in isolated Earth. In most instances the cause of habitats too small to sustain their extinction is attributed to humankind's population over time. For the African elephant, the encroachmentuponthefragileecosystems statistics are equally as grim. In in which these organisms live.

CONDORS Compounding the plight of the elephants is the killing of the animals by poachers eager to GORILLAS capitalize on a lucrative WOrid-wide ELEPHANTS ivory trade. To many, elephants became walking treasuries rather than living beings. There may b e no happy ending to the tale of the elephants. As third world populations grow in Africa and Asia, it becomes increasingly less likely that the elephant population will keep a home in its natural environment Zoos and animal sanctuaries may be the last glimmer of hope for a once thriving species. In 1985, the San Diego Wild Animal Park in Escondido, opened its Asian elephant breeding program. Having met with birthing success in its African elephant program, the Park intended to become one of the few zoological institutions to successfully breed Asian elephants. But tragedy after tragedy ensued. By early 1991, the Park was faced with three stillborn elephants. In March of this year, animal trainer Pamela Orsi, 27, was killed when she was caught between two fighting elephants. In the same month the program's only successful birth was put to sleep because of infection. Last month another elephant was stillborn. Time and time again, the fledgling program found a shroud of controversy and tragedy at every turn of fate. C ONTROVERSY OVER the San Diego Wild Animal Park's elephant program began three years ago when a keeper at the San Diego Zoo alleged that Dunda, a recently acquired cow to the Park, was the subject of abusive treatment by Park keepers. C ONTINUED/NEXT PAGE �TUESDAY, NOVEMBER 12, 1991/PIONEER CONTINUED/FROM PAGE 8 IJ (¡¡¡¡¡I iI I §g ^ M. i; || M fi o WÈÊË 1 11 I ¿y H *i MM J » ^ffilff ^ J »CATHY SULLIVAN/PIONEER According to Tom Hanscom, director of Public Relations at the Park, keepers regularly use some degree of force to establish dominance over members of an elephant herd. He says that the type of force used by keepers at the Park to establish hierarchical control is similar to the same type of force elephants use in the wild to gain control of a herd. In a natural setting, each elephant maintains a social position in the herd based on the establishment of dominance. If a less dominant elephant wishes to rise up the social ladder, it must challenge a more dominant elephant in the herd. This challenge is usually manifested in a head-butting contest between the two animals.-If the dominant elephant retreats from the headbutting contest, it succeeds its position to the challenger. Hanscom says that keepers utilize this type of challenge to become the "head elephant" of the herd. By doing so, the animals become more responsive to keeper commands thereby becoming manageable. As an exhibitory animal at the San Diego Zoo, Dunda's former home, Dunda was not accustomed to this type of treatment Hanscom says the keepers at the zoo preferred to keep their distance from the animal rather than establish a trainer-elephant relationship. As a result, Dunda, in her new environment, did not recognize Park keepers as members of the herd. She was uncooperative and difficult to handle. In order to establish dominance, keepers used sticks to emulate the head-butting ritual of the herd. Animal rights groups, like the San Diego Animal Advocates (SDAA), view this kind of hands-on treatment as abusive. Sally Mackler president of SDAA says that, as a major source of revenue in San Diego, the public was blind to the practices of the Wild Animal Park. "Dunda brought the whole issue out of the closet," Mackler says. "It showed that the practices of the Park are different from public perceptions." Hanscom says that animal rights groups such as the SDAA used the Dunda incident to gain media attention. He says that by attacking a high-profile organization, like the Wild Animal Park, animal rights groups gained a level of public EXPLORE attention that they could not get otherwise. By citing abuse, these groups manipulated the public's perception in a way that was difficult for the Wild Animal Park to defend. "Abuse is a crime where the accused has to prove its innocence," says Hanscom. "The San Diego Zoological Society maintains that there was no abuse." Mackler indicates that, because elephants are extremely intelligent creatures, they are more susceptible to tactics of intimidation used by Park keepers. She says the most humane way of dealing with elephants is to utilize modern technology in restraining and controlling the animals without the need of physical touch. One such method, used in the Portland Zoo, utilizes a room with moveable walls to restrain their elephants. When an elephant needs medical attention, it is lured into the room. The walls of the room hydraulically squeeze the elephant so keepers can work on i t Such equipment is expensive, however, and some animal rights group question whether such practices are humane. E V E R SINGE THE DUNDA Incident, the public's attention has focused on the tragedies which have afflicted the Park's Asian elephant breeding program. Since the completion of its $380,000 breeding facility in 1985, the Park has suffered the loss of four baby elephants and an adult cow. Hanscom says that breeding failures are natural events that occur when wild animals are bred in captivity. He indicates that because elephants are such "high profile" animals, the public becomes more attuned to their breeding failures than the failures of other animals. "In the wild, it is estimated that at least 50 percent of first-born elephants die," he says. "We are following the same breeding protocol as other successful programs. Unfortunately things happened to our animals before the program was successful." Last March, Omar, the first baby Asian elephant born at the Park, died of infection. After 10 months of effort by Park veterinarians to nurse the calf to health, Omar was put to sleep by a lethal injection of phenobarbital. The Park also suffered from several stillborn CONTINUED/PAGE 10 ATTORNEY SPECIALIZING IN CRIMINAL DEFENSE Felonies a nd Misdemeanors • State a nd Federal Court Drunk Driving a nd Traffic Law Offices of James N.

Due to the tragic turn of events with the Asian elephant breeding program, the Wild Animal Park remains unsure of whether it will cdkitinue its program. Compounding the decision is a recent moratorium placed on elephant breeding by national zoological societies. The problem facing most elephant breeding programs is the question of what to do with the offspring. Due to the aggressive, unpredictable nature of male elephants, zoos are generally only able to keep one bull on the premises. Having more than one bull could result in dangerous battles between elephants during breeding periods.

Mackler says her organization does not support elephant breeding programs because of the low success rate they achieve. She attributes part of the problem to the limited space available to elephants in zoos. "In the wild there are complex and intricate relationships between the male and female elephants. There is no space for proper social interactions in zoos," she says. According to Mackler, female elephants are tied to "rape racks" at the Wild Animal Park. She says that these devices deny the elephants the opportunity for proper social interaction. But Hanscom points out that such instruments are necessary to ensure the safety of both the animals and the keepers. The mechanism introduces bulls to cows and also has the ability to separate them should a dangerous situation arise. Keepers need not put there lives in jeopardy to restrain an uncontrollable mating elephant Another problem facing the Park's breeding program is the rejection of the elephant calves by the mother cow. None of the elephants at the Park have seen a baby elephant before. An adult elephant might turn on its offspring because it does not recognize what it is. In 1982, the Park lost an African elephant calf after it was attacked by an adult in the herd. The adult simply did not recognize that the calf was of the same species. After Omar the Asian elephant was born, his mother, Connie, continually bit, kicked and attempted to step on him until Park officials were forced to separate them.

As curators of an endangered species, the Park is bound by conservation ethics to keep the Asian elephant gene pool alive and propagating. "A zoo can play a supporting role of maintaining a genetic pool," says Hanscom. "We should not be viewed as curators of a living museum, but as a strong conservation education tool." Hanscom is quick to point out that the lack of success in the Asian elephant breeding program seems to overshadow successes with other animals. In the course of 11 years, the Park produced 70 rare white rhinoceros offspring. 900 births or hatches each year place the sanctuary far above other zoological institutions in terms of breeding success. Hanscom says that because Asian elephants are so high profile, public scrutiny of their breeding program is constant, but he also stresses the Park's commitment to the preservation of elephants. "The danger is if we. alter our margins because we are driven by public opinion," he says.

But, when the book's shell has the autograph of Walt Disney the precedent is set for a fantastic story. 'The Beauty and the Beast,' opening nationwide Nov. 22, is a wonderfully animated, musically beautiful and amazing story. The story unfolds of a handsome man who is bound as a beast, played by Robby Benson. The only way to return himself to his original winsome self is to gain the love of a beautiful woman. Animator Glen Keane created a creature that is both hideous and ferocious, yet transforms into something beautiful as it is tamed by the charms of a woman. Keane combines a smorgasbord of creatures in his beast and adds a pinch of Disney magic to help his monster come alive. The beauty is Belle, played by Paige O'Hara. With her, the Disney animators drew an aesthetically alluring young woman with a voice that outshines the Him projector lights. Belle is not a run-of-the-mill storybook beauty. She would rather spend her time reading a book than entertaining the love of the obnoxious town hunk, Gaston. With Belle, Disney successfully brings a modernday woman who seeks intellectual fulfillment into a traditional format. Beauty and the beast meet each other through Belle's strange inventor father Maurice. Seeking shelter from a storm, Maurice finds himself trapped in the beast's castle. As a symbol of her daughterly love, Belle bargains with the beast to take her captive in exchange for her father's freedom. The monster agrees and the stage is set: the beast and the girl are left alone. Well almost. Disney adds a few extra characters to its saga. There's a candlestick, a clock, a tea pot and her tea cup. All of these objects, with the entire household furniture, are comically animated. Angela Lansbury ('Murder She Wrote') and David Ogden Stiers ('M*A*S*H') lend their voices to these animated objects. With the cast now introduced, the Disney crew of animators and writers work their magic and the beauty and the beast fall in love. A missing page in this production, however, is how the beast became the way he did. He must find love before a special rose wilts. Where the flower came from and who cast the spell is not answered in the show. Regardless, 'Beauty in the Beast' can be placed on the bookshelf along with the other classic animated feature films from Walt Disney. Its beauty will last longer than some of its predecessors'. Creating the characters for "Beauty and the Beast" was a thoughtful, timeconsuming process involving the collaborative efforts of may different people. In the final analysis, however, it is the supervising animator and his team that must bring those characters convincingly to life and provide the credibility, personality and entertainment that appears on the screen. Glen Keane was the supervising animator who designed and drew the beast and oversaw the animators who worked on him. For this 16-year Disney veteran, whose previous works range from animating the climatic bear fight in 'The Fox and the Hound' to Ariel in 'The Little Mermaid,' this latest assignment was easily the toughest "There's never been a character like him before," explains Keane, "so there was nothing to fall back on. I began creating the beast by figuring out who the character really is inside. H e's a guy trapped between two worlds. He's part animal and part human and h e's not comfortable with either. His design had to show the human side - heart, warmth and the ability to love. The ferocious, hideous animal side had to reflect his incredible power and agility. I filled my mind with all of these things and began processingitintoafinaldesign." In the end, Keane created his own hybrid beast taking the mane of a lion, the beard and head structure of a buffalo, the tusks and nose bridge of a wild boar, the heavily muscled brow of a gorilla, the legs and tail of a wolf and the big bulky body of a bear. To all of the above, he added the most important ingredient - sincerity. "The eyes are the window to the soul," says Keane. "When Bellelooks into beast's eyes she must see his human heart and soul. She must see sincerity and believe that she can acSEE BEAST/PAGE 15 �TUESDAY, NOVEMBER 12, 1991/PIONEER M usic C alendar Blur: Performs Nov. 13 at the Backdoor, SDSU. 278-TIXS Brooks & Dunn: Performs Nov. 23 at Sound FX, San Diego 560-8022/278-TIXS Common Sense: Performs Nov. 12 at the Belly Up, Solana Beach. 481 -9022/278-TIXS Dave Wakeling: Performs with International Beat Nov. 13 at the Belly Up, Solana Beach. 481-9022/278-TIXS Gang of Four: Performs Nov. 21 at Sound FX, San Diego. 5608022/278-TIXS Gyuto Tantric Choir: Listen to ancient Tibetan Ritual Chants Nov. 17 at 3 p.m. at the Camino Theatre, USD.

Most of the art defines expressions of feeling that relate to an artist, but these artists are the "dregs of the Earth," those who usually are not accepted in normal society. Most of the artwork expresses universal themes and feelings, but when we see who the artists are, we can also place their art in a specific category, that from prisoners. When you walk into the Boehm Gallery at Palomar College, you will have a choice of entering one of three rooms. The rooms directly to the left and right include the artwork by the prisoners. The room straight ahead contains a television set with a 53-minute video consisting of 17 short video pieces by prison inmates experimenting with another form of art, video production. The most poignant pieces of art are in the two rooms opposite each other. In the room to the right, some of the p rison w omen c reated " altered books," in which they change the looks of real books to suit their perception of "regular" books. Also there are painting, sculptures and drawings. One drawing, in particular, is worthy of inspection. Done in graphite by Mike Aguilar, an inmate, this drawing depicts Latin and Indian men and women, some just faces, some full figures. Interwoven with the human figures, clocks hands, guns and bars with a keyhole play with the imagination of the viewer. This drawing portrays power and defeat, hope and sadness, and the long wait for freedom all at the same time. In the other room, many portraits adorn the walls, but one picture captures the soul and mind. Called " I Stand Alone" by inmate Rickie Soria, this picture displays a large tree dominating the landscape. Without the leaves, orstrong branches, this tree lies bent and twisted, worn and defeated. Possibly the blue sky behind the tree depicts hope, but the tree itself proves that hope*is long gone. Only the determination to survive exists. Interestingly, these art pieces are very good. Most of the artists have captured their inner feelings and expressed them effectively on the canvas. None of the art pieces seems to comefromthe part of society in which they originate. Seeing these pictures and sculptures spawns a new awareness in the viewer for the prisoners. Even if they a re in prison, they can express themselves well through a rt However, after you begin the accept these people and their works, you notice an encased glass display s howing a nother c reative f orm: weapons. These weapons were confiscated from the prisoners and are displayed to show the viewer that these peoplereally do liveinadiffeient society. How can something so expressive and even beautiful come from such a violent community? Maybe these people should be given a chance to express their lives and ideas. They have something very creative to verbalize: themselves. The showing will continue at the Boehm Gallery through Nov. 13. 34 varieties of subs & sandwiches 1. Salami, Cheese 2. Ham, Cheese 3.
