So says Associ¿te Dean ofVocational Educ¿tion RiehardHandley of e major federally-funded edue¿tion project nowunderway here.

Handleyentitled,Project

for Dis¿dvantaged Student Programs." Its mission is to developaud implement vocational train-ing programs on campus that willhelp bring educationally disad-vantaged and physically handicapped students to a competitivelevel with the general studentpopulation.

To meet that goal, the projecthas organized a' team ofinstructors administrators andconsultants to develop and planprograms in auto mechanics,electronics, child development,homemaking, marketing, secre-tarial science, education aides,registered nursing and voca-tional nursing. The group will notonly dev,elop curriculum pro-posals but prpgranis relating tostudent tutoring and counseling.

Now in its second phase, theproject will eventually move toimplement the programs (phasethree) and then evaluate andrevise them as needed (phasefour).

This season Renteria finallycame into his own. After gettingoff to a spectacular sþrt in thefirst meet ofthe season where hefinished first against runnersfrom American River (VallevChamps) and Delta, he slackeäoff until the Mt. Sac. Invitational.

Renteria feels that it was theMt. Sac race that boosted hisconfidence. "At Mt. Sac I took13th. It was here where I knew Iwas doing better than I had everdone belore."

Coach Bobby Fries is high onhis new distance ace. "Jose is agood team runner," Fries said."He's one of the smoothestrunners I've ever coached. Heruns over the ground in aremarkably light fashion."

His dist¿nce running careerst¿rted when he was in thefourth grade but Renteriaeommented, "I didn't startrunning seriously until myfreshm¿n year at Madera, whereI was being coached by DennisDeWitt."

Teammate Baldem¿r Betan-,court, also a member of theAll-Northern Cal team, also t¿lkshigþly of Rentæri¿. "Jose is quiet,he doesn't say much. Probablyhis quietness is due to his being afreshm¿n, but nonetheless he isstill a 100 pgr cent runner."

Next year Renteri¿ doesu'texpect to be so introverted. "I¡the fall of 77 | expect to t¿kecontrol of the team. I might'notbe first man, but I will h¿ve a

(The distiict is contrìibuting $57,000 of i¡r-kind funds.)The project's federal funding,says Handley, is evidence initself of the uniqueness andimportance the U.S. Office ofEducation puts on the project.

To get ready for the springtrack season as well as the nexicross country season, Renteriahas already started running roadraces. Last Saturday he wasthe third man on the l5-milerelay team that broke theRoeding Park course recorden¡oute to a first-place finish.Renteria received a gold watchfor hiq performance to go alongwith his 25 trophies and 150medals already earned.

His schedule looks full for thewinter,-as he will travel to the,Hill and Dale run in two weekswith Rubio, Betancourt and JohnMartinez for a six-mile raee.then in three weeks he will beback home again for the MaderaMarathon, where he will berunning with coach Fries.

After being on the All-Northern Cal team and placingeighth in the valley (tops forfreshmen), Renteria has gainedconsiderable attention.

Coach Miller from Cal poly. hasalready asked Renteria

it,footb¿ll season on a triumphantnote with a 40-0 blasting ofAmerican River Saturday asRichard Phillips bec¿me the mostprolific one-season rúsher in Ramhistory.

The Rams took seeond in theValley Conference with a 6-1record. they finished 8-2 for theseason.

Phillips, who g4ined 173 yardsin 23 carries against AR, set aFCC single season rushingstandard of 1,111, surpassingSteve Franklin's old record of1,081 set in 19?4.

But it wasn't easy for the 5-10,182-pound swifty. Phillips hadnetted only 54 yards late into thethird quarter. In the fourthquarter, Ram head coach ClareSlaughter considered replacingPhillips with Danny hiest, whohe said "deserved to play." ButSlaughter decided to give Phil-lips one more crack at the recordand he sent in his first-team linewhen the Rams took possessiondeep in their territory fourminutes into the final quarter.

And then it happened, thething that Ram fans grewaccustomed to witnessing thisseason. Phillips took a handoff upthe middle, did a little jitter.bugging, and outran the defen-eive baeks on an 86-yard scoringsca.mper ¿s the Ram beneh

exploded. The record-breakingrun equalled Phillips'longest ofthe season.

Slaughter stopped short ofcalling Phillips the best runningback ever at FCC "bec¿use therehave been so many good ones. Ican't say he's the best and I e¿n'tsay he isn't the best. But he isone of the finest young men tohave ever played here."

In the triumph over AmericanRiver, the Rams wasted littletime in getting on the score-board. The Fresnans marched 63yards in 10 plays on the game'sopening possession to scoredespite two 15-yard penalties.Robert Ambers passed from 18yards out to Tilh Johnson, whosauntered into the end zone for a?{) Fresno lead.

Ambers to Johnson. one of thernost dangerous passing con¡bi-nations in Ram history, struckagain later in the openingquarter on a 66-yard scoringbomb as Johnson tauntinglyslowed to a walk at the five togive the lead-footed Eeaversecondary a chance to catch up.It didn't.

the R¿ms went up toP againmidway through the seeondquarter on a 56-yard scoringplay. this time it was RoccoPetrosino at the trigger andfreshman split end Richa¡d Kaiaon the receiving end.

Priest's oneyard plunge on thesecond play of the fourth quarter

made it ãl-0 and Phillips' historicsprint from the Ram 14 put theRams ahead bv 34.

Priest, a toul'h üttle freshmanwho has played in Phillips'shadow this season, showedgreat promise for next year on a39-yard, tacklebreaking run thatconcluded the scoring. Priest'sscamper delighted eight mem-bers of the Kerman High SchoolRally Club, along with adviserFred Schlotthauer, who haddriven to Sacramento to show offa large "Butt the Beavers" sign{hev had created.

Johnson grabbed six passes for136 yards.

The R¿m defense dominatedAR, which netted 108 yards onthe ground and 30 through theair, despite throwing â3 times.

"It was a nice way to finish theseason," concluded Slaughter,"especially considering the slick-ness ofthe field and the fact thatthe game didn't mean mueh.

"'Sre had a good season. Tteonly thing wrong with it was thatwe didn't win the co¡ferenceehampionship, and I felt th¿tperhaps we should have. Butwhen you look back ¿t ourschedule, 8-2 isn't half batl."

Gilmore's deoth wishshould be gronted

By Mftch Euort¡

While most Americ¿ns a¡e concerned with abortion and.theright to life, one condemued man s¿t quietly in his þil

-cell

contemplating his right to die.Gary Gilmore, 86, sentenced to death for killing a motel clerk,

has now been granted an execution from the Ut¿h Bdard ofPardons. IIe is to be blind-folded and put before a liringsquad, . . the way he wants to die.

For Gílmire it is ¿ blessing. For I feel some men who ¿resentenced to death would rather die than sit ¿nd rot in a smallcubicle.

An ironic situatio¡ occurred when Gilmore appeared beforethe board. Several groups showed up to present their pleas tothe Board, but not for Gilmore's death. They wanted the boardto postpone the execution and let Gilmore live.

the same group of people who say "Let's keep a man alivethrough a m¿ehine even though there's no life but just amechanical heartbeat."

the same group of people who strive to make abortionsillegal, and try to preserve the life of a fetus.

Gilmore was surprised by the groups of people who wentbeforethe boàrd, saying "they were just getting in on the act."

If a man wants to die, let him. For who is to decide if acondemned and sentenced man has the choice of living in a cellfor the rest of his life or serving his sentence by death? I say thecondemned man.

I feel Gary Gilmore should die since its his sentence and it'sconstitutional. If he wants to get out of this world, just stop therot¿tion for just one second and let him get off.

I ask these groups that went before the board to plea to letGilmore live: If you were in the same situation as Gilmore -convieted and eondemned and wanting out - would you wantsomeone pleaing to let you live? I hope not.

Let Gary Gilmore die...that's all he wants from life.
