Counseling, tutorial programs,
fund raisers planned
By Cynthia Lugo
Las Adelitas of California
State University, Fr e sn O' are
planning different projects and
activities such as counseling,
tutoring and fund raisers, so that
all the members can find an area
in which they may become involved, said Delma Garcia, president of Las Adelitas.
Las Adelitas will be helping
out at the Casa Cosmica Drug
Center. They will set up one
night for tutoring students and
another night for acii vities such
as arts and crafts. Esther Castillo, an Adelita working at the
center, said that the students
there are from high schools and
junior high schools, mainly from
the east side.
Las Adelitas are helping publicize the MECHA dance next
by Adelitas
Wednesday night , October 17.
They 'Vill be setting up posters
at different schools and in the
surrounding valley communities,
as well as passing out flyers to
radio stations. Tickets are also
being sold by Las Adelitas.
A pan dulce sale is being
planned for every Wednesday in
the Free Speech Area to raise
money for Las Adelitas. A car
wash is scheduled for Saturdav
October 27, at 9:30 a.m. Ticket~
may be purchased from any Adelita.
Las Adelitas evolved from
MECHA when the Chicanas in
MECHA decided to meet together
to discuss issues and problems.
Las Adelitas are a part of
MECHA and the two groups work
together.
"I don't think we fit in with
Women's Liberation." said Delma, "the difference is that we
try to help others by working in
the community and on campus
instead of trying to help just
ourselves. We try to offer a
choice for the girls to get involved in working with the Chicano community. Some girls who
are not active politically may
prefer to go into tutoring and
coum,eling. Others may choose
to work on local elections such
as the Armando Rodriguez campaign last fall, or may become
active in the Farmworkers Union.
Plans are being made for
Adelita Night Friday, October
26. Adelita Night is where new
and old members meet and get
to know one another. A sea ve nger hunt and initiation are
planned for the evening.

New La Raza teacher says bilingual education
By Alicia Maldonado
•The area of emphasis in La
Raza Studies is education," FSU
instructor Linda Perez states
firmly. "I feel proud to be able
to work in this setting."
Stressing the importance of
bicultural-hilingual education,
Mrs, Perez feels La Raza Studies "offer the opportunity to
Chicano students to learn about
their community and to learn who
they are."
Mrs. Perez, a new La Raza
instructor, disclosed a personal
desire to be involved continually
in the community. This involvement is reflected in the three
courses she is currently instr~cting.
LINDA PEREZ AT PRESCHOOL
The Community Studies class
involves a project in the Chicano
barrio-the Escuelita. This preschool is a student-parent effort
to develop programs more culturally relevant to Chicano children.
Lacking funds, the members of
the class are organizing the
school through use of community
resources - donations and voluntary help. Members of the
faculty have contributed money
to buy some materials for the
school and Mrs. Perez says,
"That's been a big help."
Some of those involved in the
project have surveyed the community to ascertain which programs 'J.'..ill best serve the Chicanos in this area. Other volunteers have canvassed the neighborhoods to see what donations
they could receive. Two items
which the school needs the most
are a refrigerator and a stQve.
Anyone on campus is invited to
attend · the opening today of the
Escuelita, which is located on
Belmont, across from Roedlng
Park. This is an introduction
day to acquaint people with the
school, said Mrs. Perez.
"We would be happy to have
anyone from the campus visit the
E scuelita," Mrs. Perez informs.
Anyone who wishes to donate any
Hems which can be useful to th~
school is urged to do so.
The opening of the school is
planned for Monday with a small
15-student en r o 11 m en t . The
school doesn't have enough volunteers to handle more.
Mrs. Perez is the director of
the Escuelita, which ts for children aged 2-5 years. She also is
being assisted by persons from
•
IS
the Universidad de Aztlan.
Mrs. Perez instructs a course
entitled
•Bilingual-Bicultural
Curriculum Practicum." The
purpose of this class is to help
students gain informational background so they can develop bicultural education in the class-
needed
room. The class involves. f1eld
work as students are placed in
many schools in the community
at different levels. The instructor hopes to change the subject
title to Bilingual-Bicultural
Methods and Materials.

E-,ITORIAL
Farm Bureau 1s hypocritical
One of the most powerful and influential groups in the United States
today is the organization of growers and farmers known as the Farm
Bureau. At the close of 1971, the Bureau counted over two million
member families in more than 2800 counties in 49 states and Puerto
Rico .
. Farm Bureau President William Kuhfuss described his organization as "a free, independent, non-governmental, voluntary organization of farm and ranch families united for the purpose of analyzing
tfteir problems and formulating "llction to achieve educational improvement, economic opportunity and social advancement and thereby to promote the national well being.''
Kuhfuss continued that the Bureau's •primary purpose is to serve
farmers and ran<;hers. To do that · properly, the interests of all
citizens of the United States also must be considered."
Farm Bureau members provide a vital service to the country by
supplying much of the food for our tables. Bureau members are
thought to possess those prized American virtues: they're hard
working, industrious, religious and patriotic to the principles this
country was founded on.
But despite these good virtues, the Farm Bureau, sadly, also is
the epitome of an ugly monster of self-interest. It somehow has
blindly convinced itself that its interests are so sacred that it can
trample the rights of farm workers.
The statement that theFarmBureaudoesn'tcarefor farm workers
may be hard to believe for many who have heard Bureau officials
openly make pleas for farm worker rights. But these pleas are
nothing more th·an hypocritical, public relations rhetoric aimed at
portraying grower sensitivity when, actually, the Farm Bureau and
other agribusiness groups have been silently and systematically
strangling farm worker legislation on both the state and national
levels. It should be noted that until agribusiness started to be
threatened by successful unionization ten years ago, the public never
heard growers say a word about farm workers' rights.

The Farm Bureau has been accused of being one of the forces
behind the defeat of a bill giving California's farm workers unemployment benefits. The measure has been vetoed three times by
Governor Ronald Reagan. Last fall, the Bureau backed Proposition
22, under the guise of farm worker rights, when it was _nothing more
than a vicious piece of self-interest legislation, written by agribusiness interests, and slickly packaged to the public by a San Francisco public relations firm. The proposition severely limited the
organizing rights of farm workers. The Farm Bureau also has
fought bills limiting the use of pesticides for the safety of workers
in the fields, and restricting the use of child labor.
Farmers in this country have some unique problems and it is
indeed necessary that they have a vehicle to voice their ideas and
complaints to ollr elected officials. But grower organizations such as
the Farm Bureau have gone too far and have become too reckless.
It is time the Farm Bureau wake up and take a deep look at
itself. Will it become more responsible and not unjustifiably fight
the just rights of farm workers? Or will it continue to display that
dark and selfish side of American character which causes others
to burn the American flag.
Chicano. police applicants preferred
The City of San Jose agreed
last week to change its test for
policemen and at least temporarily give priority preference to
Chicanos.
An order signed by U.S. District Judge Charles B. Renfrew
and stipulated by both sides,
dictated a change in the written
test given as part of the screening test for selection of police
officers.
The order also required the
city to create an eligibility_list
from a test given last month
and to identify individuals on the
list who were bilingual in Spanish and English. The city also
agreed to first hire these individuals for at least half of the
available positions in any police

Counseling, tutorial programs,
fund raisers planned
By Cynthia Lugo
Las Adelitas of California
State University, Fr e sn O' are
planning different projects and
activities such as counseling,
tutoring and fund raisers, so that
all the members can find an area
in which they may become involved, said Delma Garcia, president of Las Adelitas.
Las Adelitas will be helping
out at the Casa Cosmica Drug
Center. They will set up one
night for tutoring students and
another night for acii vities such
as arts and crafts. Esther Castillo, an Adelita working at the
center, said that the students
there are from high schools and
junior high schools, mainly from
the east side.
Las Adelitas are helping publicize the MECHA dance next
by Adelitas
Wednesday night , October 17.
They 'Vill be setting up posters
at different schools and in the
surrounding valley communities,
as well as passing out flyers to
radio stations. Tickets are also
being sold by Las Adelitas.
A pan dulce sale is being
planned for every Wednesday in
the Free Speech Area to raise
money for Las Adelitas. A car
wash is scheduled for Saturdav
October 27, at 9:30 a.m. Ticket~
may be purchased from any Adelita.
Las Adelitas evolved from
MECHA when the Chicanas in
MECHA decided to meet together
to discuss issues and problems.
Las Adelitas are a part of
MECHA and the two groups work
together.
"I don't think we fit in with
Women's Liberation." said Delma, "the difference is that we
try to help others by working in
the community and on campus
instead of trying to help just
ourselves. We try to offer a
choice for the girls to get involved in working with the Chicano community. Some girls who
are not active politically may
prefer to go into tutoring and
coum,eling. Others may choose
to work on local elections such
as the Armando Rodriguez campaign last fall, or may become
active in the Farmworkers Union.
Plans are being made for
Adelita Night Friday, October
26. Adelita Night is where new
and old members meet and get
to know one another. A sea ve nger hunt and initiation are
planned for the evening.

New La Raza teacher says bilingual education
By Alicia Maldonado
•The area of emphasis in La
Raza Studies is education," FSU
instructor Linda Perez states
firmly. "I feel proud to be able
to work in this setting."
Stressing the importance of
bicultural-hilingual education,
Mrs, Perez feels La Raza Studies "offer the opportunity to
Chicano students to learn about
their community and to learn who
they are."
Mrs. Perez, a new La Raza
instructor, disclosed a personal
desire to be involved continually
in the community. This involvement is reflected in the three
courses she is currently instr~cting.
LINDA PEREZ AT PRESCHOOL
The Community Studies class
involves a project in the Chicano
barrio-the Escuelita. This preschool is a student-parent effort
to develop programs more culturally relevant to Chicano children.
Lacking funds, the members of
the class are organizing the
school through use of community
resources - donations and voluntary help. Members of the
faculty have contributed money
to buy some materials for the
school and Mrs. Perez says,
"That's been a big help."
Some of those involved in the
project have surveyed the community to ascertain which programs 'J.'..ill best serve the Chicanos in this area. Other volunteers have canvassed the neighborhoods to see what donations
they could receive. Two items
which the school needs the most
are a refrigerator and a stQve.
Anyone on campus is invited to
attend · the opening today of the
Escuelita, which is located on
Belmont, across from Roedlng
Park. This is an introduction
day to acquaint people with the
school, said Mrs. Perez.
"We would be happy to have
anyone from the campus visit the
E scuelita," Mrs. Perez informs.
Anyone who wishes to donate any
Hems which can be useful to th~
school is urged to do so.
The opening of the school is
planned for Monday with a small
15-student en r o 11 m en t . The
school doesn't have enough volunteers to handle more.
Mrs. Perez is the director of
the Escuelita, which ts for children aged 2-5 years. She also is
being assisted by persons from
•
IS
the Universidad de Aztlan.
Mrs. Perez instructs a course
entitled
•Bilingual-Bicultural
Curriculum Practicum." The
purpose of this class is to help
students gain informational background so they can develop bicultural education in the class-
needed
room. The class involves. f1eld
work as students are placed in
many schools in the community
at different levels. The instructor hopes to change the subject
title to Bilingual-Bicultural
Methods and Materials.

E-,ITORIAL
Farm Bureau 1s hypocritical
One of the most powerful and influential groups in the United States
today is the organization of growers and farmers known as the Farm
Bureau. At the close of 1971, the Bureau counted over two million
member families in more than 2800 counties in 49 states and Puerto
Rico .
. Farm Bureau President William Kuhfuss described his organization as "a free, independent, non-governmental, voluntary organization of farm and ranch families united for the purpose of analyzing
tfteir problems and formulating "llction to achieve educational improvement, economic opportunity and social advancement and thereby to promote the national well being.''
Kuhfuss continued that the Bureau's •primary purpose is to serve
farmers and ran<;hers. To do that · properly, the interests of all
citizens of the United States also must be considered."
Farm Bureau members provide a vital service to the country by
supplying much of the food for our tables. Bureau members are
thought to possess those prized American virtues: they're hard
working, industrious, religious and patriotic to the principles this
country was founded on.
But despite these good virtues, the Farm Bureau, sadly, also is
the epitome of an ugly monster of self-interest. It somehow has
blindly convinced itself that its interests are so sacred that it can
trample the rights of farm workers.
The statement that theFarmBureaudoesn'tcarefor farm workers
may be hard to believe for many who have heard Bureau officials
openly make pleas for farm worker rights. But these pleas are
nothing more th·an hypocritical, public relations rhetoric aimed at
portraying grower sensitivity when, actually, the Farm Bureau and
other agribusiness groups have been silently and systematically
strangling farm worker legislation on both the state and national
levels. It should be noted that until agribusiness started to be
threatened by successful unionization ten years ago, the public never
heard growers say a word about farm workers' rights.

The Farm Bureau has been accused of being one of the forces
behind the defeat of a bill giving California's farm workers unemployment benefits. The measure has been vetoed three times by
Governor Ronald Reagan. Last fall, the Bureau backed Proposition
22, under the guise of farm worker rights, when it was _nothing more
than a vicious piece of self-interest legislation, written by agribusiness interests, and slickly packaged to the public by a San Francisco public relations firm. The proposition severely limited the
organizing rights of farm workers. The Farm Bureau also has
fought bills limiting the use of pesticides for the safety of workers
in the fields, and restricting the use of child labor.
Farmers in this country have some unique problems and it is
indeed necessary that they have a vehicle to voice their ideas and
complaints to ollr elected officials. But grower organizations such as
the Farm Bureau have gone too far and have become too reckless.
It is time the Farm Bureau wake up and take a deep look at
itself. Will it become more responsible and not unjustifiably fight
the just rights of farm workers? Or will it continue to display that
dark and selfish side of American character which causes others
to burn the American flag.
Chicano. police applicants preferred
The City of San Jose agreed
last week to change its test for
policemen and at least temporarily give priority preference to
Chicanos.
An order signed by U.S. District Judge Charles B. Renfrew
and stipulated by both sides,
dictated a change in the written
test given as part of the screening test for selection of police
officers.
The order also required the
city to create an eligibility_list
from a test given last month
and to identify individuals on the
list who were bilingual in Spanish and English. The city also
agreed to first hire these individuals for at least half of the
available positions in any police

views on the women's movement. "It's time for them to get
together and promote equal stan-
dards for themselves and other s.
I am a mother- a conce rned and
a working mot her ." Mrs . Perez
says she has learned to make
adjustments in her life and knows
from experience that women can
have and enjoy both li ves.
She supports the basic philosophy of Las Adelitas, a group of
Chicana students, which attempts
to have women become more involved in community and political
activities.

Counseling, tutorial programs,
fund raisers planned
By Cynthia Lugo
Las Adelitas of California
State University, Fr e sn O' are
planning different projects and
activities such as counseling,
tutoring and fund raisers, so that
all the members can find an area
in which they may become involved, said Delma Garcia, president of Las Adelitas.
Las Adelitas will be helping
out at the Casa Cosmica Drug
Center. They will set up one
night for tutoring students and
another night for acii vities such
as arts and crafts. Esther Castillo, an Adelita working at the
center, said that the students
there are from high schools and
junior high schools, mainly from
the east side.
Las Adelitas are helping publicize the MECHA dance next
by Adelitas
Wednesday night , October 17.
They 'Vill be setting up posters
at different schools and in the
surrounding valley communities,
as well as passing out flyers to
radio stations. Tickets are also
being sold by Las Adelitas.
A pan dulce sale is being
planned for every Wednesday in
the Free Speech Area to raise
money for Las Adelitas. A car
wash is scheduled for Saturdav
October 27, at 9:30 a.m. Ticket~
may be purchased from any Adelita.
Las Adelitas evolved from
MECHA when the Chicanas in
MECHA decided to meet together
to discuss issues and problems.
Las Adelitas are a part of
MECHA and the two groups work
together.
"I don't think we fit in with
Women's Liberation." said Delma, "the difference is that we
try to help others by working in
the community and on campus
instead of trying to help just
ourselves. We try to offer a
choice for the girls to get involved in working with the Chicano community. Some girls who
are not active politically may
prefer to go into tutoring and
coum,eling. Others may choose
to work on local elections such
as the Armando Rodriguez campaign last fall, or may become
active in the Farmworkers Union.
Plans are being made for
Adelita Night Friday, October
26. Adelita Night is where new
and old members meet and get
to know one another. A sea ve nger hunt and initiation are
planned for the evening.

New La Raza teacher says bilingual education
By Alicia Maldonado
•The area of emphasis in La
Raza Studies is education," FSU
instructor Linda Perez states
firmly. "I feel proud to be able
to work in this setting."
Stressing the importance of
bicultural-hilingual education,
Mrs, Perez feels La Raza Studies "offer the opportunity to
Chicano students to learn about
their community and to learn who
they are."
Mrs. Perez, a new La Raza
instructor, disclosed a personal
desire to be involved continually
in the community. This involvement is reflected in the three
courses she is currently instr~cting.
LINDA PEREZ AT PRESCHOOL
The Community Studies class
involves a project in the Chicano
barrio-the Escuelita. This preschool is a student-parent effort
to develop programs more culturally relevant to Chicano children.
Lacking funds, the members of
the class are organizing the
school through use of community
resources - donations and voluntary help. Members of the
faculty have contributed money
to buy some materials for the
school and Mrs. Perez says,
"That's been a big help."
Some of those involved in the
project have surveyed the community to ascertain which programs 'J.'..ill best serve the Chicanos in this area. Other volunteers have canvassed the neighborhoods to see what donations
they could receive. Two items
which the school needs the most
are a refrigerator and a stQve.
Anyone on campus is invited to
attend · the opening today of the
Escuelita, which is located on
Belmont, across from Roedlng
Park. This is an introduction
day to acquaint people with the
school, said Mrs. Perez.
"We would be happy to have
anyone from the campus visit the
E scuelita," Mrs. Perez informs.
Anyone who wishes to donate any
Hems which can be useful to th~
school is urged to do so.
The opening of the school is
planned for Monday with a small
15-student en r o 11 m en t . The
school doesn't have enough volunteers to handle more.
Mrs. Perez is the director of
the Escuelita, which ts for children aged 2-5 years. She also is
being assisted by persons from
•
IS
the Universidad de Aztlan.
Mrs. Perez instructs a course
entitled
•Bilingual-Bicultural
Curriculum Practicum." The
purpose of this class is to help
students gain informational background so they can develop bicultural education in the class-
needed
room. The class involves. f1eld
work as students are placed in
many schools in the community
at different levels. The instructor hopes to change the subject
title to Bilingual-Bicultural
Methods and Materials.

E-,ITORIAL
Farm Bureau 1s hypocritical
One of the most powerful and influential groups in the United States
today is the organization of growers and farmers known as the Farm
Bureau. At the close of 1971, the Bureau counted over two million
member families in more than 2800 counties in 49 states and Puerto
Rico .
. Farm Bureau President William Kuhfuss described his organization as "a free, independent, non-governmental, voluntary organization of farm and ranch families united for the purpose of analyzing
tfteir problems and formulating "llction to achieve educational improvement, economic opportunity and social advancement and thereby to promote the national well being.''
Kuhfuss continued that the Bureau's •primary purpose is to serve
farmers and ran<;hers. To do that · properly, the interests of all
citizens of the United States also must be considered."
Farm Bureau members provide a vital service to the country by
supplying much of the food for our tables. Bureau members are
thought to possess those prized American virtues: they're hard
working, industrious, religious and patriotic to the principles this
country was founded on.
But despite these good virtues, the Farm Bureau, sadly, also is
the epitome of an ugly monster of self-interest. It somehow has
blindly convinced itself that its interests are so sacred that it can
trample the rights of farm workers.
The statement that theFarmBureaudoesn'tcarefor farm workers
may be hard to believe for many who have heard Bureau officials
openly make pleas for farm worker rights. But these pleas are
nothing more th·an hypocritical, public relations rhetoric aimed at
portraying grower sensitivity when, actually, the Farm Bureau and
other agribusiness groups have been silently and systematically
strangling farm worker legislation on both the state and national
levels. It should be noted that until agribusiness started to be
threatened by successful unionization ten years ago, the public never
heard growers say a word about farm workers' rights.

The Farm Bureau has been accused of being one of the forces
behind the defeat of a bill giving California's farm workers unemployment benefits. The measure has been vetoed three times by
Governor Ronald Reagan. Last fall, the Bureau backed Proposition
22, under the guise of farm worker rights, when it was _nothing more
than a vicious piece of self-interest legislation, written by agribusiness interests, and slickly packaged to the public by a San Francisco public relations firm. The proposition severely limited the
organizing rights of farm workers. The Farm Bureau also has
fought bills limiting the use of pesticides for the safety of workers
in the fields, and restricting the use of child labor.
Farmers in this country have some unique problems and it is
indeed necessary that they have a vehicle to voice their ideas and
complaints to ollr elected officials. But grower organizations such as
the Farm Bureau have gone too far and have become too reckless.
It is time the Farm Bureau wake up and take a deep look at
itself. Will it become more responsible and not unjustifiably fight
the just rights of farm workers? Or will it continue to display that
dark and selfish side of American character which causes others
to burn the American flag.
Chicano. police applicants preferred
The City of San Jose agreed
last week to change its test for
policemen and at least temporarily give priority preference to
Chicanos.
An order signed by U.S. District Judge Charles B. Renfrew
and stipulated by both sides,
dictated a change in the written
test given as part of the screening test for selection of police
officers.
The order also required the
city to create an eligibility_list
from a test given last month
and to identify individuals on the
list who were bilingual in Spanish and English. The city also
agreed to first hire these individuals for at least half of the
available positions in any police

her standard elementary credential at Stanislaus State, During this time, she got married
and also had a child, who is
now four years old.
Mrs. Perez taught first grade
in a regular school in the rural
community of Westley, California. In this school, consisting
mainly of migrant children, she
realized the need for bilingualbicultural programs in the school

number of observational activities," Mrs. Perez said. "The ·

the home, school, and the community, such as the park or
church.
Mrs. Perez was born and

junior college there. She then
attended San Francisco State and

"One of our biggest aims is

the MECHA chairman. •Chicanos

Counseling, tutorial programs,
fund raisers planned
By Cynthia Lugo
Las Adelitas of California
State University, Fr e sn O' are
planning different projects and
activities such as counseling,
tutoring and fund raisers, so that
all the members can find an area
in which they may become involved, said Delma Garcia, president of Las Adelitas.
Las Adelitas will be helping
out at the Casa Cosmica Drug
Center. They will set up one
night for tutoring students and
another night for acii vities such
as arts and crafts. Esther Castillo, an Adelita working at the
center, said that the students
there are from high schools and
junior high schools, mainly from
the east side.
Las Adelitas are helping publicize the MECHA dance next
by Adelitas
Wednesday night , October 17.
They 'Vill be setting up posters
at different schools and in the
surrounding valley communities,
as well as passing out flyers to
radio stations. Tickets are also
being sold by Las Adelitas.
A pan dulce sale is being
planned for every Wednesday in
the Free Speech Area to raise
money for Las Adelitas. A car
wash is scheduled for Saturdav
October 27, at 9:30 a.m. Ticket~
may be purchased from any Adelita.
Las Adelitas evolved from
MECHA when the Chicanas in
MECHA decided to meet together
to discuss issues and problems.
Las Adelitas are a part of
MECHA and the two groups work
together.
"I don't think we fit in with
Women's Liberation." said Delma, "the difference is that we
try to help others by working in
the community and on campus
instead of trying to help just
ourselves. We try to offer a
choice for the girls to get involved in working with the Chicano community. Some girls who
are not active politically may
prefer to go into tutoring and
coum,eling. Others may choose
to work on local elections such
as the Armando Rodriguez campaign last fall, or may become
active in the Farmworkers Union.
Plans are being made for
Adelita Night Friday, October
26. Adelita Night is where new
and old members meet and get
to know one another. A sea ve nger hunt and initiation are
planned for the evening.

New La Raza teacher says bilingual education
By Alicia Maldonado
•The area of emphasis in La
Raza Studies is education," FSU
instructor Linda Perez states
firmly. "I feel proud to be able
to work in this setting."
Stressing the importance of
bicultural-hilingual education,
Mrs, Perez feels La Raza Studies "offer the opportunity to
Chicano students to learn about
their community and to learn who
they are."
Mrs. Perez, a new La Raza
instructor, disclosed a personal
desire to be involved continually
in the community. This involvement is reflected in the three
courses she is currently instr~cting.
LINDA PEREZ AT PRESCHOOL
The Community Studies class
involves a project in the Chicano
barrio-the Escuelita. This preschool is a student-parent effort
to develop programs more culturally relevant to Chicano children.
Lacking funds, the members of
the class are organizing the
school through use of community
resources - donations and voluntary help. Members of the
faculty have contributed money
to buy some materials for the
school and Mrs. Perez says,
"That's been a big help."
Some of those involved in the
project have surveyed the community to ascertain which programs 'J.'..ill best serve the Chicanos in this area. Other volunteers have canvassed the neighborhoods to see what donations
they could receive. Two items
which the school needs the most
are a refrigerator and a stQve.
Anyone on campus is invited to
attend · the opening today of the
Escuelita, which is located on
Belmont, across from Roedlng
Park. This is an introduction
day to acquaint people with the
school, said Mrs. Perez.
"We would be happy to have
anyone from the campus visit the
E scuelita," Mrs. Perez informs.
Anyone who wishes to donate any
Hems which can be useful to th~
school is urged to do so.
The opening of the school is
planned for Monday with a small
15-student en r o 11 m en t . The
school doesn't have enough volunteers to handle more.
Mrs. Perez is the director of
the Escuelita, which ts for children aged 2-5 years. She also is
being assisted by persons from
•
IS
the Universidad de Aztlan.
Mrs. Perez instructs a course
entitled
•Bilingual-Bicultural
Curriculum Practicum." The
purpose of this class is to help
students gain informational background so they can develop bicultural education in the class-
needed
room. The class involves. f1eld
work as students are placed in
many schools in the community
at different levels. The instructor hopes to change the subject
title to Bilingual-Bicultural
Methods and Materials.

E-,ITORIAL
Farm Bureau 1s hypocritical
One of the most powerful and influential groups in the United States
today is the organization of growers and farmers known as the Farm
Bureau. At the close of 1971, the Bureau counted over two million
member families in more than 2800 counties in 49 states and Puerto
Rico .
. Farm Bureau President William Kuhfuss described his organization as "a free, independent, non-governmental, voluntary organization of farm and ranch families united for the purpose of analyzing
tfteir problems and formulating "llction to achieve educational improvement, economic opportunity and social advancement and thereby to promote the national well being.''
Kuhfuss continued that the Bureau's •primary purpose is to serve
farmers and ran<;hers. To do that · properly, the interests of all
citizens of the United States also must be considered."
Farm Bureau members provide a vital service to the country by
supplying much of the food for our tables. Bureau members are
thought to possess those prized American virtues: they're hard
working, industrious, religious and patriotic to the principles this
country was founded on.
But despite these good virtues, the Farm Bureau, sadly, also is
the epitome of an ugly monster of self-interest. It somehow has
blindly convinced itself that its interests are so sacred that it can
trample the rights of farm workers.
The statement that theFarmBureaudoesn'tcarefor farm workers
may be hard to believe for many who have heard Bureau officials
openly make pleas for farm worker rights. But these pleas are
nothing more th·an hypocritical, public relations rhetoric aimed at
portraying grower sensitivity when, actually, the Farm Bureau and
other agribusiness groups have been silently and systematically
strangling farm worker legislation on both the state and national
levels. It should be noted that until agribusiness started to be
threatened by successful unionization ten years ago, the public never
heard growers say a word about farm workers' rights.

The Farm Bureau has been accused of being one of the forces
behind the defeat of a bill giving California's farm workers unemployment benefits. The measure has been vetoed three times by
Governor Ronald Reagan. Last fall, the Bureau backed Proposition
22, under the guise of farm worker rights, when it was _nothing more
than a vicious piece of self-interest legislation, written by agribusiness interests, and slickly packaged to the public by a San Francisco public relations firm. The proposition severely limited the
organizing rights of farm workers. The Farm Bureau also has
fought bills limiting the use of pesticides for the safety of workers
in the fields, and restricting the use of child labor.
Farmers in this country have some unique problems and it is
indeed necessary that they have a vehicle to voice their ideas and
complaints to ollr elected officials. But grower organizations such as
the Farm Bureau have gone too far and have become too reckless.
It is time the Farm Bureau wake up and take a deep look at
itself. Will it become more responsible and not unjustifiably fight
the just rights of farm workers? Or will it continue to display that
dark and selfish side of American character which causes others
to burn the American flag.
Chicano. police applicants preferred
The City of San Jose agreed
last week to change its test for
policemen and at least temporarily give priority preference to
Chicanos.
An order signed by U.S. District Judge Charles B. Renfrew
and stipulated by both sides,
dictated a change in the written
test given as part of the screening test for selection of police
officers.
The order also required the
city to create an eligibility_list
from a test given last month
and to identify individuals on the
list who were bilingual in Spanish and English. The city also
agreed to first hire these individuals for at least half of the
available positions in any police

as a teacher's aide at the Patterson Family Center, became
the head teacher there, and finally was the head supervisor, responsible for Migrant Education
Pre-School Centers in Stanislaus
County.
Concurrently, Mrs. Perez was
going to school and completed
her standard elementary credential at Stanislaus State, During this time, she got married
and also had a child, who is
now four years old.
Mrs. Perez taught first grade
in a regular school in the rural
community of Westley, California. In this school, consisting
mainly of migrant children, she
realized the need for bilingualbicultural programs in the school

Child" deals with the concepts
or principles of growth and development relative to the Chicano
child. "The class stresses · a
number of observational activities," Mrs. Perez said. "The ·
students must go out and observe
Chicano children in a number of -'
settings." These settings include
the home, school, and the community, such as the park or
church.
Mrs. Perez was born and
raised in Modesto and attended
junior college there. She then
attended San Francisco State and
FSU where she completed a BA
in Spanish.
Mrs. Perez has also worked
in migrant education. She worked

meeting with CSUF faculty and
staff and serving as student body
officers. He said that although
MECHA primarily seeks to protect the rights of Chicano students, it also ts concerned when
the rights of all students are
jeopardized.
"MECHA members put in a lot
of work and donate a lot of time-,"
said Valdez. "The experience
they .receive from heing active
on campus will help them after
they graduate and go out into the
community."
Valdez said 11 student senators are MECHA members and
two others, Tomas Hill and Cipriano Martinez, serve in other
po si ti on s. Martinez is the
administrative
vice-president
while Hill serves as president
pro tern of the senate.
MECHA meetings are held on
Thursday, noon, in the Interna,.
tional Room in the cafeteria.
Valdez said he would like to see
even more students get involved
in his organization .
"One of our biggest aims is
to increase the number of Chicano students on campus," said
the MECHA chairman. •Chicanos
make up 30 per cent of the population of Fresno County, yet we
make up only 10 per cent of the
students on campus. The current educational system isn't
doing much for us so something
new has to be done."
Other MECIIA officers are:
Mike Hernandez, vice-president:
Maria Garcia , treasurer ; Maria

At the University of Sacramento, she received a Masters in
Education.
Mrs. Perez hopes to relate
her experiences and relationships to her classes to present
•more meaningful programs to
those going into education."
Mrs. Perez is one of three new
instructors on La Raza Studies
staff this semester. Steve Soriano and Adolfo Ortega are also
new to the campus and department this semester.
"I believe that stereotypes
about women are very negative,"
Mrs. Perez stated, expressing
views on the women's movement. "It's time for them to get
together and promote equal stan-
dards for themselves and other s.
I am a mother- a conce rned and
a working mot her ." Mrs . Perez
says she has learned to make
adjustments in her life and knows
from experience that women can
have and enjoy both li ves.
She supports the basic philosophy of Las Adelitas, a group of
Chicana students, which attempts
to have women become more involved in community and political
activities.

The most recent example of
activism by MEC HA occurred
last spring, when a board of
publications member suggested
doing away with the minority editions of the Daily Collegian.
After pressure from MECHA and
Black students, the proposal was
defeated.
