sponsored by the University of San Diego Auxiliary. The program at the new USO nursing school, says Dr. Palmer, " ls designed to give the registered nurse a more thorough background that will provide her with the capacity to assume a more active and comprehensive role in providing nursing service and nursing care to individuals, as well as to their families, in a wide va- riety or health care set• tings." 69 STUDENTS Sixty nine full and part- time students are currently enrolled in the school. Today's nurse, she says, works "in a colleague role with the physician and other health professionals rather than in a lesser capacity." The role of today's nurse is not a static thing, "but var- ies depending on where she is. "And she assumes re- sponsibilities according to the other kinds of health services available." Ourmg Dr. Palmer's nurs• ing career, she has seen nurses move from a tradi· tional role "to an initiating role. "She now has the capacity to make independent judg- ments and carry out nursing interventions that affect the patient," Dr. Palmer For the most part, Ameri- can schools of nursing have not been given the credit they deserve, she believes . "American schools of nursing have fulfilled their roles and functions for the world's benefit," she said. . "And they have assumed their responsibilities far more than society has ac- knowledged or report~d" l\tEANINGFUL She said it has only been within the past three years that nursing schools have received any meaningful fi- nancial support from the federal government and (Continued on D-2, Col. 1) Nursing

As Mead tailed off, Joe DeMaestri picked up the slack with 10 points and Allan Jones added 13 to give USO a whopping 51-26 ad• vantage at Intermission. The winners continued their domination of the ac• lion in the second half and with 13 :26 remaining to play had built an insurmountable 63-40 margin and coasted home from there.

A group of University of San Diego students are digging to get to the bottom of the history behind San Diego's Old Town P:aza. ' Under the direction of USD history Prof. James Moriarty, the group has spent the better part of this month digging in the area once occupied by Old Town's United States House, believed to have been con- structed about 1860. As a result, they have unearthed rem- nants indicating another structure - a Spanish-style adobe house built about 1825 - stood on the site before the United States House. The USD class making the discovery is made up of sociology, nursing, premed, political science and education majors as well as anthropology and history majors and graduate students. They are enrolled In USD's intersession program, which provides three weeks of intensive study in 16 different classes. 'Historic Site Methods' Moriarty's "Historic Site Methods" is one of the three-credit classes included among the history, sociology. literature, political science, psycology education and English offerings. The students are spending five days a week in class - in Moriarty's case, the dirt in Old Town - rather than the tradi- tional 16-week course method of earning three credits. Moriarty's intersession and summer ses- sion students have been conducting ar- cheological excavation in Old Town for more than three years. His regular class- es, primarily for history and anthropology majors, are held at Mission San Diego de Alcala. He said the intersession program has provided an opportunity for novices as well as archeology-related majors to get a sense of the heritage and culture behind developments such as Old Town. Moriarty refers to this work as public archeology rather than prehistoric ar• cheology. Yesterday students were carefully unearthing a drainage system thought to be installed to prevent erosion of the adobe walls from water which would run off the hills above the town. Thete were also pieces of an old whisky bottle, windowsills and glass being careful- ly cleaned and tagged. Reconstruction Possible The information unearthed by the stu• dents will be developed into a report and together with other historical facts - may be used m the reconstruction of which is now yielding its past to the diggers. . The students digging yesterday said they liked intersession scheduling - using the normal semester break between Dec. 20 and Jan. 29 - to pick up credits and take advantage of a different study approach. "My regular classes wouldn't offer the chance to get outdoors and study," s~id a political science major, Ray Fowler. Christine Byrne, a sociology major, said she also liked the idea of concentrating on one subject and "being able to spend the whole day on one class and really get into it."-~---------~---~

One of Dr. Palmer's most recent and cherished awards for her work in the profes- sion came when she was presented the Boston Uni- versity Alumni Award for the work she did in its school of qursing, known as one of the top 10 nursing schools in this country. "I receive great satisfac- tion iPt knowing I'm able to help shape a profession to serve the best interests of society," she said. " and to affect change in a system of delivering nursing care and preparing people to function in health care systems."

DeMaeslri went to the buck• el all alone on a fast break for the clincher. DeMaestri said most of his second-half scoring from 15 to 18 feet, came on a play the Toreros had worked onall week. "It's just a double screen, where I pop out from the baseline," he said. "I was thinking about my shooting the first half (he missed his first five shots), but in the second half it just flowed." He was 11 for 12 in the last 20-plus•flve mmutes and hit nine in a row at one point. USO hit 54 per cent from the held, to Chapman's 49. The lead changed hands six times and was tied on mne occasions in the first 20 minutes as both clubs, USO with its new vertical back• and-forth offense and Chap- man with its vigorous press, grappled for the advantage. The Toreros went up 'by eight early on Traub's shoot- ing and offensive board con• trol, but the Panthers tied it at 17-all at 11:33. They see- sawed from there until the last minutes of the half, when two free throws by Paul Meade and one by guard Joe DeMaestri put USO up by four, 37-33.

Guard Joe DeMaestri scored 23 points in the sec• and half, including two free throws that tied the score at the end of regulation play, and the Umversity of San Diego went on to beat Chap- man College, 88-85, in over- time last mght at the Alcala Park gym. The victory, achieved In pile of a total of 35 tur- nover , broke a five-game Torero losing streak, all or them on the road, and kept their home boards record clean at 6-0. The Toreros play at home again tonight, hostmg Cal Lutheran (6-7). It was an improbable vie· tory Chapman, which lost its third straight to drop to 9- 5, had come from five points back to take a 76-72 lead with 38 ticks left on the clock. The Panthers gave Torero center eil Traub, who canned a game-high 27 pomts, an unimpeded hook shot for 76·74, and then Panther guard Mike Adams with 11 seconds left missed the first or a bonus situation after drawing the intentional foul De\laestri brought the ball down and was fouled as he tned to arch a 20-footer. With five seconds showing, he dropped both free shots in to tie it. Chapman's Reggie Dantzler, who finished with 22 points, bounced a 25- footer off the basket stan chion at the buzzer: The Toreros got a lift in the extra period from fresh• man guard Neil Hennessy. who entered the gall}e with two minutes left in regula• tlon and sank three free throws and a g1ve•and-go layup in ovcrtim •.

Intersession offered a variety of experi- ences, including photography and music (the History of Jazz). But the most popular of the 16 classes has proven to be a daily two-hour and 45- minute lecture course on the Philosophy of Love. 48 Students Enroll Taught by Dr. John Swanke, the class is the largest Intersession class with 48. Swanke said he is somewhat surprised by the popularity of the class, although he called the necessity or desire to under• stand one's feelings in relation to himself, family and the world around him a partic• ularly relevant topic in 1975. The texts and lectures, complete with the philosophies of Aristotle, Freud, Fromm and Swanke, constitute the same material that the students would face in a normal 16-week course. It 1s not designed to be fun - although it can be, Swanke said. The idea is to provide an intensified period of study that contains three•credit units of work. Swanke, whose regular-session philoso- phy classes are said to be popular with USD students, said the intensified period approach to learning by concentrating on a single subject has proven effective be- cause there are fewer distractions in the shorter periods of time, little time to procrastinate and no competition from other subjects.
