California Association for Neurologically
Handicapped Children.
The group, whose golden hits include
"Walk Dont Run," theme from "Hawaii
Five-O," "Pipeline," and "Wipeout," will
be taking older valley fans for a trip down
Memory Lane as well as introducing a
new generation to their music.
"They are a new group and an old group
all in one," said Frederick Williams, one
of the promoters for the show. "It's a new
sound for the younger people and nostalgia
for the older ones."
Part of the proceeds from the show,
scheduled for May 4 at the Fresno City
College gym, will go toward the CAN HC's
drive to help children with learning
disorders.
handicaps that are visual, hearing or motor
handicaps, mental retardation, emotional
disturbances or environmental disadvan¬
tages. Studenu with these disabilities are
usually afforded special education while
the neurologically handicapped are not.
According to Shirley Tartarian, pres¬
ident of CANHC, the learning problems
these children face are because of "dis¬
orders in one or more of the basic
psychological processes involved in using
spoken or written language."
She said these conditions, that are often
neglected in schools, are dyslexia, per¬
ceptional handicaps, and minimal brain
disfunctions.
Tartarian said because of the lack of
funding, the shortage of special education
teachers and the changes in criteria that
make it harder for students to meet the
special education requirements, needy
children "have fallen through the cracks."
The group, formed in 1963 by parents
and professionals, does all of il

CANHC's main focus, Tartarian said,
is "to teach parents how to help their
children. That's what we're all about."
She said although they have no office or
meeting place except members' homes,
the group maintains a library, puts out a
newsletter, shows films and sponsors
seminars and conferences.
Williams said the Ventures'four month
tour is sponsored by groups like CANHC
up and down the state.
"We look for groups that dont have the
community support they need," he said.
"It will be an evening of entertainment
plus a contribution to a worthy cause."

the first choice for the ag museum site,
expressed shock and outrage, partly direc¬
ted at Varner, after this announcement.
"This is the final blow after ten years of
broken promises made by Parks and
Recreation. Dudley and I are friends,
although we don't always see eye-to-eye,
but I just don't undersUnd what he's
done. He has betrayed us. He is a traitor.
Asked to comment on Smith's reaction,
Vamer Uughed and dismissed the accusa¬
tion as arising from "well-founded frus¬
tration" on Smith's part.
"Smith is worried over the future of the
City College buildings and I don't blame
him. But I certainly had no influence in
' choosing CSUFas a site. This was a deci¬
sion made by the Board of Trustees."
Varner added that he was sure that
Smith would not feel the same way once
alternate plans for the City College build¬
ings were finalized. The Fresno Bee re¬
cently reported that the future of the

sUte-of-art crop irrigation equipment to

anthropology."
During his interview with the Dally
Collegian, Varner claimed the museum
would feature "something no other ag
museum in the country has," namely,
extensive display exhibiu tracing "the
evolution of agriculture from iu prehis¬
toric origins to the present." He also pro¬
poses to offer classes in "my specialty,"
muscology.
Vamer denied the museum would be •
"another school" on the CSUF campus.
He also pointed out that the ag museum
would be under the administration of the
Sute Parks and Recreation Department,
not the university.
Asked to comment on the possible
"return" of Vamer, the tenured faculty of
the anthropology department declined to
comment, saying that it would be inap¬
propriate for them to speak about Varaer's
academic performance.
The same explanation was given by
CSUF President Harold Haak, who
added, "Dr. Vamer has worked well with   j
us in his capacity as ag museum director
and that's all I care to say."
