Each jnember has extensive experience and is committed to forgeing new trails to CSUSM's future. N EWS/PAGE4 ACADEMIC COMMUNITY TOO HASTY The recent criticism o f CSUSM by the academic community in regards to a geological chair endowment, was unwarranted. CSUSM President Bill Stacy should be commended on his level-headed response to the unwarranted criticism.

That is the question being asked by a group o f Cal State San Marcos students and faculty wishing to create a literary journal for the university. The project, spearheaded by English major Regina John, would create a magazine comprised o f short stories, poems, photographs and artwork by CSUSM students. John said the thrill o f having o ne's own original works published has inspired her to create ajournal for CSUSM. "I was first published in the journal Tide pools a tMiraCosta College," John said. " I thought we needed to start things here." Already, with the help o f English Professors Pat Boni and James Mack, John has informally compiled a list o f about a dozen students for the project. According to Mack and Boni, other students not on the list expressed interest in the publication. Six members o f the group, comprised principally o f English majors, held their first meeting Wednesday a t B oni's home to discuss plans on how to make the journal a reality. " I had a feeling there was a lot o f positive energy about this project," said Mack about the meeting. " It will definitely be a focal-point for English and Humanities majors."· English major Jennifer Eagle, who attended the meeting, said the informal gathering helped to affirm the goals o f the journal. "This is not just a mere fantasy. W e're determined to make it a reality," Eagle said. Eagle indicated that she would like to submit a short story to the journal. Other students who were notable to attend the meeting expressed enthusiasm for the project. Elaine Whaley, who is majoring in English, said she hopes to submit 1990-91 budget examined A projected operating cost o f $ 10 million and an adjusted budget o f $8.8 million, has left CSUSM officials pondering how they are going to reducetheresulting$1,231, 783 shortfall in the 1990-91 general budget. A t the September 13 University Council meeting, a proposed spendingreduction package was presented. $454, 681, being spent o n p art-time faculty salaries, library books and faculty work stations, will b e transfered from the general budget to the Lottery a ccount Another $372, 086 in expenditures for computers, furniture, and library shelving and books will be transfered to a different fund. T he largest group o f reductions will c ome from cuts in the public . relations and institutional research dir ectors's spring budgets, shrinking spring funding o f part-time faculty positions, and absorbing cost associated with the science lab. T he n et effect o f the cost saving measure will leave the campuswith a cushion o f $ 17, 127. written works as well as participate in the editing process o f the journal. Whaley helped to edit a journal published by Seattle's Shoreline Community College. Submissions for the journal will be chosen by students in regards to content alone and will not be judged in regards to the contributor's name or previous publishing experience. Authors' names will be separated from the works during the selection process. Even though student enthusiasm about the project has been high, John said she is still unsure o f where funding for the journal will come. To help get advice for the funding o f the project, John will meet with the CSUSM's President, Bill Stacy, tomorrow. Professor Boni said they will not discount the option o f selling th e journal. At the next meeting o f the group, scheduled for Sept. 24, members of an editorial board are expected to be selected during the gathering. " What we need is a board where integrity is maintained. W e must keep our intellectual and moral integrity in regards to works chosen for th e journal," said Boni. Mack said the group decided at Wednesday's meeting to democratical! y make decisions regarding the publication. He said the journal should make an important external statement o f what is occurring on the campus. "All English instructors should want to get a finger in the pie," he said. A name for the journal has not yet been decided, but participants want it to reflect the theme o f ' a new beginning.' Boni said the group has high expectations for the journal's quality. " We would love our journal to be the best in the country," said Boni. "Nobody sets up by saying, ' We want a mediocre journal."' 7\ BUDGET SUMMARY BUDGET BALANCING GOVERNOR'S BUDGET Estimated cost to run CSUSM for the 1990-91 year PROJECTED DEFICIT .. ........ .. -$1 ,231 ,783 Salaries .... .............. $6,903,586 Salary Savings .... ...

NEWS 3 S tudent government forums scheduled; task force initiated In an effort to build a student government at Cal State San Marcos, two open forums, providing information for government-interested students, are scheduled to air concepts and begin painting a picture o f how student representation will look in the months to come. " It's important to mold a student government to m eet the needs o f the CSUSM campus," said Sandra Kuchler, the assistant dean o f student affairs who is helping to organize the forums. Kuchler said that since rapid growth is scheduled for CSUSM USM, it is important to create a student government that can grow with the college. To help facilitate the process o f forming a body o f student representation, CSUSM President Bill Stacy is organizing a S tudent Government Task Force to develop plans and review options for the fall term. Dean o f S tudent Services Ernest Zomalt was asked by Stacy to chair the task force. Zomalt and Sociology Professor Therese Baker will nominate two faculty members to serve on the task force. The forums, scheduled Sept. 27 at noon and 7 p.m. in Room 9 Building 145, will provide students with additional information regarding the structure o f the task force, its meeting times, calendar o f activities and reporting deadlines. "The forum will serve as a general explanation o f what is going on," Kuchler said. According to Kuchler, interested students can serve on committees to aid the task force in their mission. In order to solicit student involvement, a survey for students has been sent through the mail. With this survey, students can indicate committees in which they are interested. Student committees include: Associated student government Clubs and organizations Student regulations Student newspaper CSUSM yearbook Committee to develop a campus community statement Academic senate committees A brief statement describing experience, attributes and interests is required with the survey. According to Kuchler, student recommendations will be made from information gathered in the survey. " We want to look at different kinds o f governmental bodies," said Kuchler. "Perhaps we will have subcommittees to brain storm ideas. Kuchler said student initiative in forming a student government has been good. She said about 30 students responded to a student government survey distributed at orientation. Czech student checks out SM Pavilkova glad to be studying English in U.S. M ICHELLE POLLINO/PIONEER Lenka Pavilkova considers herself very lucky to be studying English at Cal State University, San Marcos. She considers herself very lucky to be in America at all. For Pavilkova America was an unattainable dream until this year. Pavilkova's homeland is Czechoslovakia. There she attends Charles University (also known as Carlova University) in Prague. Founded in 1348, Charles University is the oldest college in Central Europe. Pavilkova has been in America for about two months, and is studying English at CSUSM to gain a further grasp o f the language. Due to the c ountry's p revious economic and political conditions, Pavilkova's arrival in the U.S. was long in coming.

Some o f the faculty members came from the Midwest; others came from the South; two were born outside the U.S. All came because o f the challenge o f starting a college for the 21st century. Selected from 1,328 applicants for the positions, the founding faculty's members were chosen because o f their demonstrated records in teaching, research, scholarship and creative activities.

An educated person who criticizes without reading up on the issue at hand is an oxymoron. Recently, California State University, San Marcos received its first bit o f academic criticism with the news o f a quartermillion-dollar endowment which would have created a new chairperson for geology. Criticism revolved around conditions for the endowment set forth by its donor Allan Kelly, o f Carlsbad. The endowment carried the stipulation that any professor filling the chair must study and report upon the truth or falsity o f K elly's controversial theory o f impact geology (a theory that claims many o f e arth's geological formations were created by large meteors). The academic community protested, claiming the conditions violated academic freedom and would tum the newly-formed umversity into a laughing stock. CSUSM's President Bill Stacy responded by putting an immediate end to the endowment offer. In the course o f o ne short press conference the issue ceased to exist. Some might assume that Stacy was being tooprotectiveofhis infant university by cutting the generousendowmentoffer, but at this early stage o f development, CSUSM needs all the common sense and care it can get. Stacy acted responsibly and with all the proper instincts o f a wise p arent By rejecting the endowment, Stacy prevented controversy, calmed academic uproar and preserved the college's initial image o f squeaky-cleanness. Whereas Stacy's quick action is to be admired, the quick criticism by the academic community is to b e deplored. Few o f the professors that came forward in the revealing L os Angeles Times article had actually read the conditions o f the endowment. They assumed that CSUSM would become a research pawn for Kelly's unusual theory. STAFF EDITORIAL T hey, o f c ourse, d id n ot r ealize that CSUSM was not obligated to produce e vidence s up- porting K elly's theory. CSUSM would have only been obliged to s et aside a small portion o f time to examine the probability o f the theory and report upon its findings- positive or negative. Kelly, who has committed much o f his life to his theory o f impact geology, simply wanted proper research performed on his ideas. Because he is not a "scientist" or a "scholar," getting a major university to research his theory has been next to impossible. Giving a new university funding to research his ideas was a great way to have his ideas scientifically explored and to help the community as w ell Stacy saw a wonderful opportunity to help his university to grow. With the geology chair that the Kelly endowment would have created, Stacy would have been one quick step closer to CSUSM'ss maturity. He saw the vision o f a new department, more d· versity in the university's educational offerings and a closertie i to the community through the donation. In time faculty approval may not have been forthcoming and the whole endowment issue would have been ended anyway, but nobody will ever know. All that is known is that members o f San Diego's intellectual community struck a blow to education without knowing for what they were fighting. Such actions are expected o f morons but not educated men. Constructive historical significance is the aspiration of anyone seeking greatness. T oday's world is so busy with important events, it may seem impossible to plot for relevance: communism and th e Berlin Wall are falling; the superpowers are quasi-allies; and a c ontemporary Hitler is trapped in his desert hell . What part o f t he big picture, then, is left for all of us to claim? As members o f the vanguard class at Cal State San Marco s, w e are unwittingly on the path o f greatness. Our participating in this entrepreneurial, frrst-in-twenty-years major un iversity makes us leaders in A merica's last empire: educatio n. Additionally, there is a collector' s passion for th e first edition; inevitably, history will refer to us and where we ' ve gone. More specifically, we face the rare capacity to prescribe the future and, indeed, there are many areas where we can make marks on the future o f a m ajor university. Perhaps the most striking detail a t C SUSM is the higher proportion o f w omen, oftentimes referred to as "returning students." More accurately, they are the "current trend." Women pursuing degrees and credentials in higher n umb ers than ever is a microcosm o f t he progress they can seck in society. In recognition o f this mission, a campus-based center highlighting great women (and thereby providing role models) is not gratuitous. Leaders in a rt, science, medicine an d business could comprise such a tribute, with a focus on recent and local subjects. I t's important to note that the Teacher Credential program at CSUSM hosts many o f t omorrow's torches o f learning. Establishing the Department o f Education as a prominent source o f applied research will b e o f p aramount importa nce to the university's profile, and may be seminal in stemming a deluge o f societal ills. On the flipside, Business Education continues to hold intense p opularity and pragmatic p ayoffs. Furthe rm ore, CSUSM is the only state subsidized alternative to SDS U's distant and impacted program. There should be no hesitation to buttress the elements of today' s best business education: writing and problem solving; behavioral management; and international citizenship. T he b est balance to strong professional programs is a broad, liberal arts and science curriculum. All o f the mandates o f higher education get met: intellectual development, communication skills, cross-cultural exposure and appreciation for the human heritage. Finally, there should b e rapid development of a studentbody political process. This will lend momentum to th e school's collective soul and it will give a voice to the univ ersity's " owners." In order to real force in decisions, and no t merely a seminar in parliamentary procedure, there must be built-in administrative and faculty interfaces.

A T HOUGHT: "I mistrust all frank and simple people, especially when their stories hold together .... " ERNEST HEMINGWAY/ IN 'THE SUN ALSO RISES' .. _ ...... .... . .. . ................. Call up the reserves. Tell grandpa to dust o ff his Civil Defense helmet. The reincarnation o f old Adolph Hitler is searching for Lebensaraum in the mideast. Journalists and politicians quickly p oint to t he s imilarities between Saddam Hussein's Blitzkrieg into Kuwait and Hitler's takeover o f Czechoslovakia in 1938. But are these masters o f the sound bite and pork barrel too selective in 'drawing parallels between the present stalemate and World War II? Are the leaders o f opinion and industry purposely focusing on the obvious to avoid the revelation o f far deeper and more significant parallels? You be the judge. In March 1942, more than three months after the U.S declared war on Germany and Japan, the senior Senator from Missouri, dedicated to "exposing treasonable arrangements," embarked on a series o f hearings. The target o f these hearings was Standard Oil. With the help o f dirt dug up by Roosevelt's Secretary o f Interior, Senator Harry S. Truman showed that Standard and Farben I.G. (The German industrial trust) had literally carved up the world markets far more efficiently than Hitler and Stalin had vivisected Poland. Oil and chemical monopolies had been established all over the map. The hearings revealed that WilliamS. Farish, then President o f Standard Oil, had refused to send vital patent information to Canada because Canada and Germany were at war. Farish had also refused to supply the U.S. Navy with Standard's newly developed synthetic rubber. Truman even produced cables showing Standard's arrangements with Japan were to continue throughout any conflict or break in trade." What Truman's hearings did not reveal was that the Chairman o f Standard Oil, Walter C. Teagle helped organize the sale o f tetraethyl lead, an essential aviation gasoline additive, to both Germany and Japan during the first two years o f the war. He even "borrowed" 500 tons from Ethyl, the British Standard Subsidiary. Thanks to Teagle, London actually provided the material that made it possible for Hitler's air force t o bomb England. Not only that, through Teagle 'scrcativebook- keeping, the British Royal Air Force "had to pay royalties to Nazi Germany through Ethyl-Standard for the gasoline used to fly Gorging 's bombers that were attacking London. The payments were held in Germany by Farben's private banks for Standard until the end o f the war." While gas lines and rationing were the rule in the U.S. during the war, the U.S. Ambassador to Spain further blew the whistle on Standard when he made the statement on Feb. 26, 1943, that "oil products available in the country o f Spain arc considerably higher than the present per-capita distribution to the people o f the Atlantic Seaboard o f the United States." Culpable as they were o f treason, Standard Oil was in n o way an anomaly. They were joined in their wartime activities by Ford, ITT, the Chase Bank and many others. But again, the object is not to cast blame, but rather to discover whether the parallels between the present "crisis" in the Persian Gulf and World War II run any deeper that the psychological - rofiles o f Saddam Hussein and Adolf p Hitler. The most important question to ask in times o f national crisis may be: w ho's got the most to gain and the least to loose? A trip to the gas pump may provide a clue. Or how about the scarcity o f Fortune 500 CEOs patrolling the Saudi-Kuwaiti frontier? Perhaps they know there's an Iraqi nerve gas canister with their name on it.

Few people are adventurous enough to discover the real treasures found on the peninsula. Below Ensenada, B aja's northernmost state does not only afford an inexpensive getaway from the hustle and bustle o f Californian suburbia, it also offers a paradise for sportsmen and campers. Many Baja enthusiasts mainLain that the only way to really experience this portion o f M exico is not from a hotel room, but from . the awning o f a tent. From there the untamed land can be witnessed first-hand, as it was meant to be witnessed. Baja is rich in camping areas, with each possessing a magic all its own. Most can be reached via the Transpeninsular Highway. :rhis thousand-mile ribbon, cutting down the length o f the peninsula, has opened the wilderness to great numbers o f surfers and R V campers eager for relaxation o r sport. Adventurers will find Baja to be safe, different and very friendly. Roving hordes o f b anditos and gringo-hating Mexican police are more easily found in Mexico mythology than in reality. I f a nything, the inhabitants o f B aja Norte are friendlier than their northern neighbors. Heading southeast from Ensenada on Highway 3, campers can find the fastest route to the Sea o f C ortez and the little town o f S an Felipe. The road heading to San Felipe is a lonely desert stretch passing endless auto graveyards and flat, uncompromising terrain. T he t hree-hour trek ends with the highway a t two giant c ement a rches marking the city o f S an Felipe. At San Felipe the desert meets the crystal blue Sea o f C ortez. Campsites with names like ' Campo P ee W ee' o r ' Pop's P lace' abound. Virtually all these campos afford dynamic views o f the ocean and are equipped with showers and bathrooms (referred to as W.C.s). M any have hookups for recreational vehicles. Beaches a t S an Felipe are wide with fine, white sand. Water temperatures range in the 90s with lillie o r no harsh currents. In the entire San Felipe bay, the waters are waste deep for about a half a mile out. T he w ater level on the Sea o f C ortez drops a full 3 0 feet during low tide and shell collectors can stroll far out into the bay without gelling wet. This phenomenon affords a remarkable view. O ne gets the feeling o f the landscape o f an alien planet. Strolling into the bay a t low tide can be dangerous, however. Stingrays work themselves under the moist sand and are a pt to sting anyone stepping on o r n ear them. Nights are warm and breezy and are excellent for nature lovers who enjoy sleeping under an endless cloud o f stars. The food in San Felipe is Beautiful rock formations abound in Baja California. At left, a crevice is formed in the cliffs of Bahia de Los Angeles. Exotic shells and stones can be found in these nooks and crannies. fantastic, with shrimp, clams and octopus in great abundance. For $1 b udget gourmets can feast on two shrimp o r fish tacos a t any o f the small street stands. Because San Felipe is a popular hangout a mong college students, nightlife is plentiful and exhilarating. AT C a nd motorcycle riders will find s ome o f the best sand dunes in N orthern Baja j ust south o f the city. Doubling b ack on Highway 3 to E nsenada is t he only way to r eaccess the Transpeninsular Highway, the only paved route heading south. Just below o fEnsenada, near the town o f M aneadera, sightseers can find L a Bufadora; otherwise known as the blowhole. This sea geyser is considered by many Mexicans to be the eighth natural w onder o f t he world. Here waves are compressed through a natural crevice in the cliffs. T he c ompression forces the ocean water 150 feet into the air in a fine spray. With each wave, crowds o f s pectators cheer on the magnificent geyser. Camping near the blowhole is a lso a wonder. Even though campsites a re p rimitive and without running water, the cliffside camps possess magnificent views. For the camper w ho d oesn't w ant to drive too far into Mexico to find a panoramic spot, L a Bufadora is perfect. A few hours south o f L a Bufadora is t he small agricultural village o f S an Quintin. Her lush fields o f e very con_ceivable vegetable fill the eye. Some Mexi. cans claim that the valleys near San Quintin are as rich as California's S an J oaquin Valley: San Quintin also holds the finest beaches in Baja Norte.

Jet skiing on the Sea o f C ortez offers just this kind o f feeling to both amateur thrill seekers and die hard adventure mongers alike. W e found renting a j et ski in San Felipe to b e not only an exhilarating skip with nature, but also safe and comparatively (to American prices) inexpensive. In Mexico one o f the greatest thrills anyone can experience is the thrill o f a great bargain. The exhilaration found haggling for a better price is almost as great as the ride itself. W e found the best bargain to b e with Elvis, a San Felipe local who rents his machine out on a by-the-hour basis. Elvis originally quoted a price o f $ 40 per hour, but through the collective bargaining process we were able to gamer a $30 per . hour r ate- about half the hourly cost o f renting a j et ski in San Diego.

A t the end o f this stretch o f desert, the Sea o f C ortez unfolds with its electric blue waters and abundant sea life.

We were able to gain enough speed at one point for both passengers to stand during the ride, but the joy derived from standing on a j et ski comes from the hot blasts o f wind and ocean spray that only high speeds can bring. With only one passenger the j et ski changed from a brokendown truck into a sleek racing machine. The rider truly becomes one with the machine as the vehicle becomes one with the water.

J ONATHAN YOUNG/PIONEER SITTING DOWN: Sitting or croutching on a jet ski allows the rider to cruise with maximum control and minimum effort. This is a good position for viewing the surroundings and gaining rest. STANDING UP: Standing up causes the jet ski to attain higher speeds. In this position, wave-jumping is possible. Standing up can be extemely exhausting as well as fantastically fun . �12 PIONEER/TUESDAY, SEPTEMBER 18, 1990 EXPLORE Driving in Mexico made easy " There's no way I 'm taking my car down there." "Mexican drivers are crazy." " If your car breaks down in Mexico you die." "All Mexican roads are made o f dirt." "Mexican gas will destroy your engine." For the most part these concerns about driving in Baja California are based on common misconceptions. Driving in Mexico is actually as·easy and as carefree as in the United States. Travelers heading south down the peninsula will find nicely paved roads, plenty o f mechanics and help in case o f an automotive emergency. The first item a gringo driver should take care o f is automotive insurance. An American driver caught in an accident in Mexico will be held fully responsible for the incident i f he/she does not have insurance. Liability insurance can b e p urchased before crossing the border for as little as $3 per day. F or o nly. a few dollars more, full insurance coverage can be bought.

The small village is so isolated that there arc no electrical lines, water pipes or phones. Electricity is provided in some o f the town's stores through a generator and water is trucked in daily. For a fee o f $70, adventurers can rent a 14-foot ponga (a small metal fishing boat) and take a d ay's excursion to the bay's islands. Such a trip should not be missed, as the bay is filled with dolphins, seals and even a gray whale or two. The islands are unpopulated and possess isolated coves idea for snorkeling or sun bathing au natural. They offer a glimpse o f a world untouched by man. Bahia de Los Angeles gives campers an opportunity to be truly one with nature. The best campsite in the entire area is located at a sma ll point at the end o f the bay called Punta La Gringa. Named after American women, who in the past frequented the area to gather shells and rocks, Punta L a Gringa is a veritable showcase o f nature. Here campers can live o ff the fat o f the land with little or no effort. Fish are so abundant in the crystalline bay that all one need d o t o survive is c ast a line out and reel in a bass. Butter clams are so plentiful in the bay that a bucket o f the shellfish can be gathered in less than an hour. Due to the abundance o f bird species, the point is a haven for naturalists, scientists and bird watchers. Blue-footed boobies, identical to those found in the Galapagos Islands, and ospreys share the skies with pelicans and sea gulls. Because o f its isolation, camping at Punta La Gringa has no showers or W.C.s, but for $2 campers can use facilities in the Villa Vitta Hotel, located in the village. Bahia de Los Angeles is only eight hours driving away from San Diego and truly represents Northern Baja to its full capacity. It is a location that any traveler would love. larger cities. Streets in Tijuana and Ensenada can become as congested as Southern California's freeways at rush hour. I f taking an . automobile into the cities is necessary, use defensive driving techniques. Drivers in Mexico are generally not in as much o f a hurry as drivers in the U.S. Be patient i f caught behind a slower driver and adapt to the slow pace rather than cursing it. Highways in Baja are nicely paved and well kept, but at times can be narrow and winding. The Transpeninsular Highway, which spans the length o f the peninsula is the finest Baja has to offer. Roads in small villages or drives leading to isolated hideaways may not necessarily be paved. I f car problems do occur on the highways, a federally-funded service called the Green Angels is provided. T he Green Angels constantly roam the highways in green service trucks. This complimentary service helps stranded travelers with .battery failures, fan belt breakages and whatever easily fixed problem might occur. Travelers should keep extra fan belts, air filters, oil filters a nd w ater on hand for extended journeys into Mexico. Even though the country is filled with qualified mechanics, parts are not always easy to c ome by. Waiting for a fan belt for a Toyota, for instance, could take weeks. Mexican gas is not as clean as the gasoline in the U.S. b ut a welltuned car can function well on it nonetheless. Cars needing unleaded fuel should take the gasoline labeled ' extra.' D ue to the high lead content in the gas, using other than ' extra' g asoline could result in serious damage to the catalytic converter. Gas additives should b e used after three tanks o f M exican gas. A quart o f c ane alcohol, available in Mexican drug o r l iquor stores should b e a dded to free the gas tank o f extra water. T he biggest safeguards for driving problems in Mexico is t o have a well-maintained automobile before the onset o f the journey. Double-check the tires, belts and filters before embarking and no minor problems should arise. witnessed some j et ski aficionados reaching heights o f six feet and attaining a nearly vertical position while airborne.

Turning donuts in the water while standing is almost as easy as a straight forward, full-thrott 1e run. For those less fortunate riders who fall o ff the machine, the j et ski has a built-in safety device. When a rider falls off, the vehicle slows to a crawl and circles the area where the passenger fell. Climbing back aboard is as easy as climbing onto a bicycle.

O NE DAY CRUISES T HE P ERFECT MINI GETAWAY Beating Moctezuma's Revenge Perhaps the biggest factor preven ting Americans from travelling in Me xico is the fear of Moc tezuma's Revenge. The ailment produces such sy mptoms as diarrhea, violent sto mach cramps and cold sweats tha t can tum any dream vacation in paradise into a nightmare in hell. But with a little common sense and a few precautions, travelers can enjoy Mexico ' s grandeur without fear o f the Aztec k ing's curse for gringo s. In order to prevent the ailment, one mu st have an elementary understanding o f the disease's transmission. Moctezuma's Revenge is simply the introduction o f bacteria indigenous to Mexico into the American body. The most common way these strains o f bacteria are introduced is through the drinking o f Mexican water o r the eating o f some food. According to Hidden Mexico, a traveler' s guide to Mexico, not all visitors come down with the illness. It is possible to cat like a king and not suffer any ill side effects. The book offers some suggestions on how to eat in peace: Fruits and nuts with peels are generally safe. Make sure all fruits and vegetables are cleansed with purified water before consumption. Meat, seafood, peeled fruit and drinks served at taco stands should be eaten with discretion. i f great numbers o f flies abound at a particular taco stand, it should be avoided. Food at these tacorias is generally safe and very tasty. G o easy on experimentation. Since many Mexican foods arc very spicy, it is not advisable to mix them too much. Take spicy foods one at a time and in moderate quantities. Drink only bottled water, known in Mexico as agua purifi- cado. A void drinks with ice unless the establishment where they arc served uses bottled water. Do not use tap water for brushing teeth . I fMoctezuma's Revenge does strike than a sparing dose o f Lomotil is advised. Lomotil is a morphine derivative which induces a kind o f intestinal paralysis. It is available all over Mexico and in the United States. Kaopectate or Pcpto-Bismol can reduce the discomfort o f stomach cramps and chamomile tea works wonders at soothing th e stomach. If Moctezuma persists with his torture for more than five days, a visit to a doctor is advised. The most important deterrent to the ailment, however, is attitude. Those who worry most about getting sick in Mexico ultimately are not disappointed. Use Mexico for relaxation and enjoy the great culinary dishes it has to offer.

With only a weekend and a minimal bank account, students can find a paradise o f relaxation only an hour away in Mexico. Those wishing to dance and party all night can find good times waiting for them at Tijuana's Avenida Revolucion. This main artery o f the Mexican border town is filled with Discotheques and flashy bars. Among the most popular and elaborate o f T J' s discos is O H!. OH! is usually packed to the video-lit rafters with fun-seeking college students. Here dancers can boogie the night fantastic to top disco hits. Just o ff Ave Revolucion is the low key nightclub L a B amba. This hole-in-the-wall disco offers contemporary music and their famous tequila poppers. T ijuana T illy's, also on Ave. Revolucion, has a less frenetic atmosphere indigenous to Carlos Anderson establishments. Unusual pictures and paraphernalia adorn the ceiling and walls in this popular gathering place. Tijuana Tilly's serves great food at reasonable prices and is famous for margaritas. Shoppers can find great bargains and a wide variety o f merchandise in the avenu e's many curios shops. Items such as cigarettes and alcohol can be bought for much cheaper prices than across the border. Be advised, however, that United States customs allow only two liters o f alcohol and two cartons o f cigarettes to cross into American territory. Sportsmen will find excitement in Tijuana's unusual spectator activities. Here sports not found in the U.S. are played in dynamic style. The drama and courage o f the bullfights is played every Sunday afternoon a t4 p .m. in the town ' s arena. Bullfighting is a Mexican tradition and should be seen at least once to get a real taste o f culture south o f the border. Bullfighting is as much a part o f Mexican culture as Football is to the culture o f the U.S . with matadors being national heros. J ai Alai is another offbeat sport not found in California. In this high-speed game, players fling a wooden ball at speeds in excess o f 200 miles per hour a t a cement wall. The game is filled with drama and paramutual betting adds to the excitement. Gamblers will love Agua Caliente. Caliente is T ijuana's version o f Del Mar and Hollywood Park. Here horses and dogs race year-round for the pleasure o f betters. South o f Tijuana in the little hamlet o f R osarito, visitors can find more docile forms o f relaxation. The small town is filled with mom and pop taco stands that serve burritos and tortas a t reasonable prices. Rosarito possesses wide, sandy beaches that are perfect for sunbathing and sometimes parasailing. The old Rosarito Beach Hotel is probabl}' the best known spot for sipping a cold, exotic drink and listening to mariachis. Years ago such greats as Lana Turner and Orsen Wells sipped coco locos or tequila sunrises on the old inn's patios. Lodging at the hotel is reasonable by American prices with some rooms containing kitchenettes. All o f the rooms are spacious with newer bungalos costing more money. A few miles south o f Rosarito is the lobster mecca o f P uerto Nuevo. Here dozens o f restaurants serving principally lobster can be found. For $8 a good sized lobster is served Mexican-style with rice and beans. Anyone craving crustaceans will find Puerto Nuevo magnifico. Between Puerto Nuevo and Ensenada lies the d unes o f C antamar. These beachside dunes resemble a scene from ' Lawrence o f Arabia' and are wonderful fodder for ATC riders and motorcyclists. One o f the best restaurants in Northern Baja is the one found at the L a F onda hotel. The restaurant is perched on a cliff overlooking white, sandy beaches. Specialties include lemon pie and lobster. Lodging at the L a Fonda hotel is unique and very romantic. Poems adorn the walls above the beds in some rooms, whereas other rooms resemble a cave. Prices at the hotel are moderate. At the fishing city o f E nsenada, travelers will find a thriving metropolis geared to the tastes o f tourists. Ensenada is known .for its fish taco stands which abound throughout the city. Ensenada is higher-paced than many towns but not nearly as chaotic as Tijuana. By far the most well-known spot in town is H ussong's C antina. This dive bar, reminiscent o f the old west, has wooden tables and floors covered with s awdust At night federales, or state police, are stationed outside the door to keep mayhem at a minimum. Carlos a nd C harlie's bar and grill is another Carlos Anderson creation similar to Tijuana Tilly's. Even though food prices are rather high, Carlos and Charlie's is rich in atmosphere suitable for Americans. Another hotspot in Ensenada is P apas a nd . JONATHAN YOUNG/PIONEER B eer. Huge baskets o f french fries, potato balls and potato skins are served with a great assortment o f Mexican beer. Ensenada is much less frantic for shoppers with curios shops in great supply. Along with bullfights, Ensenada also has sports fishing and c harreadas, o r rodeos. In S an F elipe, visitors can feast on the town's specialty o f clams and shrimp for pennies on the dollar. One o f B aja's most unusual restaurants is C lam M an's. Diners can munch on buckets o f tasty butter clams and listen to the late clam m an's patented spiel on the contributions o f the clam to the sex drive. Whale bones and dried fish adorn the restaurants decor to create an unusual and rustic atmosphere. Rockodile's is a video bar that reflects the fun o f this small tourist town. One part o f the cantina contains a volleyball net where tournaments are held on weekends. San Felipe is a paradise for sportfishing, windsurfing and j et skiing. The calm, warm water o f the bay is perfect for water sports. Just north o f San Felipe is a string o f gringo-oriented campsites for the more rugged traveler. These campos, with names like 'Campo Pee W ee' o r ' Pop's P lace' have showers, toilets and great ocean views. South ofEnsenada near the town o f Maneadera is the Mexican eighth wonder o f the world, L a B ufadora, otherwise known as the blowhole. La Bufadora is a natural sea geyser that sprays water 150 feet into the air with each lull o f the tide. Watching the phenomenon is free o f charge. At S an Q uintin motorcyclists and ATC riders will find dunes and wide, white beaches with which to test their skills. There are few eating establishments in San Quintin, but Americans can find a safe, hot meal a t the L a P inta resort hotel. L a Pinta rises like an oasis from the dunecovered beach, with reasonable nightly rates and comfortable lodgings. From B ahia d e L os Angeles, nature lovers can marvel in the full spectacle o f the Sea o f Cortez. From this tiny town visitors can rent boats for day-long excursions to the b ay's many islands. Renting a boat, o r ponga, is an essential activity for L.A. Bay visitors. The Bay is filled with dolphins, whales and seals. Fishing can yield such catches as dorado (otherwise known as Mahi Mahi o r dolphinfish), red snapper and bass. The shores o f the bay are rich in clam and oyster beds. �TUESDAY, SEPTEMBER 18, 1 990/PIONEER 15 "WIN TWO TICKETSto Knott's BERRYFARM" DRAWING MAIL THIS COUPON TO: PIONEER, Knott's Drawing 250-2 S.

Cajun Connection food as good as Orleans In the expanding world o f fish restaurants and steak houses, fmding an original and exciting eatery can b e ·a challenge. The Cajun_ Connection, located at 740 Nordahl Rd. in San Marcos, is one fo'sure way to beat the bland blues. I guarantee it. Here is an island o f Louisiana hospitality in an ocean o f fa st food joints. Patrons can listen to the southern sounds o f z ydoko music and munch on Mississippi-area delicacies in a light atmosphere sprinkled with a touch o f elegance. Collegiate Gourmet The food at Cajun Connection is as good as that found in New Orleans itself. From appetizers to desserts, the Collegiate Gourmet found all dishes irresistibly different and stimulating to the palate. I started my meal with an appetizer o f fried alligator. Gator is a tender meat with a very slight musky flavor. Fried with a light, crunchy cornmeal coating and served with a zesty horseradish sauce, the gator has just enough bite to wake up the salivary glands. Another outstanding appetizer is the fried oysters. Once again the cornmeal brings out the best flavors o f the dish. For added pleasure, I found that a touch o f Louisiana hot sauce accents these tender morsels perfectly. Chicken and sausage gumbo is also available fo r those who want a real taste o f New Orleans. Each dinner is served with a simple, green salad and garlic bread. I found the house dressmg to be quite refreshing. With aliberal content o f lemon, this dressing is quite' zesty and very flavorful. From blackened steak to crawfish fettuccini, the menu has S TACEY S MITH /PIONEER Gator Bee r, T abasco sauce and craw fi sh are some of the d e li cacies found at The Cajun Conn ection in San Marcos. At th is restaurant, diners can eat exotic New Orleans-style dishes in an atmosphere brimming with Southe rn c harm. enough diversity in selection to please any diner. On my last trip I tried the frog legs as my main course selection. This delicacy is very tender and possesses a slightly fishy flavor. Served fried with alligator shaped french fries, the frog legs make for a pleasing and light main course that will make you jump for joy. My personal favorite main dish is the catfish courtboullion. This fresh-water fish has a mild taste that is perfect with just a touch oftabasco. It is fried to a delicate crunch, served on a bed o f rice and topped with seasonal vegetables. It is a definite must try! When available, the Cajun Connection also serves a Louisiana-style plate o f crawfish. Not only are these mini-crustaceans flavorful, they are also a great eating adventure. Those diners who enjoy a new and exciting domestic beer will be pleased to find three uncommon brews on the menu. O f the three, Dixie Beer, from New Orleans, has the most pleasing flavor and is a great compliment to the cajun food fare. At all costs avoid the Gator Beer. This Florida brew has a sour offensive bouquet that assaults the senses. Wine lovers will find a pleasing variety o f California white and red varietals. An absolute must-try dessert is the bread pudding. This rich delight is filled with pineapple and golden raisins and is smothered in a warm brown sugar syrup I t is undeniably the best bread pudding in North County. The service is casual but amiable. A t times the owner, and chef, makes personal visits to diners and is always in the mood to s uggest a new and exciting taste creation. Prices are moderate to expensive with dinner for two costing around $45. T he Cajun Connection is open Tuesday through Friday from 11 a.m. to 9 :30p.m., Saturdays from 3-9:30 p.m. and Sundays from 3-9 p.m. All ;n all, i t's a g reat place to take an adventurous date. Y 'all a re gonna love it. Robert Smith radiates in 'Blue Sunshine' album D AVID H ATCH /PIONEER Cure fans relax! Just when you thought you would need to resort to old recordings, Robert Smith is back as strong and as vague as ever with newly released material and a new band, called The Glove, in his album "Blue Sunshine." This time h e's got help from former "Siouxsie and the Banshees" lead singer Landray. A couple formed in Heaven? I t would seem so. Landray's dis- tinctive and frantic-sounding vocals combined with Smith's dark and often-analyzed lyrics add up to form a very haunting couple. They could very well be the "Addams Family" o f the music world. To analyze lyrics or even point out their symbolisms when dealing with Smith is redundant, redundant, redundant. E verywhere y ou t urn, S mith's lyrics are subjected to intense analysis. Smith has diverged on this recording and performed two instrumental pieces. The first is "Blues in Drag," which concludes the ftrst side o f the album. "Blues" is a song that conjures up images o f a dream sequence, one where SEE A LBUM/PAGE17 �TUESDAY, SEPTEMBER 18, 1990/PIONEER A CCENT 1 7 Fall season heats up with new video sales P EGGY OSTERLOH/PIONEER As the summer movies dwindle to a small flame, the video retail market prepares for a blazing hot fall season. There is a wide variety o f films com ing with smash hits like ' The Hu nt for Red October' and ' When Harry Met Sally,' and a wide range in pri ces. Starting out the month o f September is the hit movie ' When Harry Met Sally,' starring Billy Crystal and Meg Ryan. This movie grossed over $91 million a t the box office. 'Working Girl,' starring Harrison Ford and Melanie Griffith, will be released this month for sale as well. Both movies will sell for$19 .98 each. Rounding out the end o f the month are several boxed sets specially packaged for the holiday season. T he ' Ghostbusters' pack will include the ori ginal and its sequel and will sell for $ 13 .95. 'The Karate K id' trilogy will be available Sept. 2 6 with a price o f $54. 95 . 'Back to the Future I II' is set for th e end o f November, and there are rumors o f a trilogy set j ust before Christmas. In October, the movie that started all th e green mania, 'Teenage Mutant Ninja T urtles,' is a lso d ue out. 'Turtles' grossed $130 million and started an onslaught o f memorabilia and increased the popularity o f these hard-shelled kicking amphibian. On Oct. 10, the comedy-murder ' In the Spirit' will be selling for the high price of$89 .95. This movie teams up comedians Marlo Thomas and Elain May. It includes Peter Falk o f the ' Columbo' s eries, O lympia Duk akis and Melanie Griffith. A disciple o f Satan terrorizes victim sin ' TheFirstPower.' It stars L ou Diamond Phillips and Tracy Griffith with the sound track provided by expolice member Stewart Copeland. I t A LBUM CONTINUED FROM PAGE .16 the dreamer can imagine a serene, surreal environment The second instrumental piece ends the recording and conjures the image of a much blacker dream; a dream o f chaos and confusion. This darker instrum_ntal is called "Relax," an e ironic title for the feeling I got from the music. Toward the end the instrumentals in " Relax" fade in and o ut until finally exiting smoothly then bursting back in a flood o f music, talking and noise, once again evoking that frantic feeling.

Although "Punish me with Kisses" will probably be the next single, the appropriate radio station could pick any one o f the songs to further support the recording. All songs were written by Smith, but he only sings two, and those were done in very Cure,-like fashion. Landray performs her six songs very strongly and both instrumental pieces are mesmerizing in their own right. I f you ever wondered what the Cure would sound like i f they had a really great female vocalist, this is the choice recording for you.
