S^fonia Mexicana Plays to Full House
By: Norman Baffrey
Sinfonia Mexicana - Ole! Saturday, March 31 was a distinct "happening" in San Bernardino, as the Inland Empire Symphony and the Sinfonia Mexicana presented its Fifth Annual Sinfonia Mexicana at the California Theater of Performing Arts. It was a triumph of music, cuisine and international cooperation and a joy for the community. This most happy event began with a
dinner for 200-plus at Siquio's Restaurant in Colton. The restaurant was nicely furnished with peach-colored, linen cloths and green, liner napkins and other accents. A salad with a tasty dressing was served as most diners imbibed excellent margaritas. The entree of came asada was well received -a flavorful, tender, generous portion of steak with refiied beans, rice and a tortilla "flower" filled with guacamole. A fine cheesecake with strawberries and whipped cream was dessert. Introduced at the dinner were Maestro Jose Guadalupe Flores, guest conductor and composers Mateo Oliva and Mario Kuri-Aldana. Sinfonia President Emest Garcia also introduced Yolanda
Santa Cmz Gasca, widow of Agustin Lara, in whose honor the concert was presented. Father Ray Rosales of Our Lady of Guadalupe Church gave a fine invocation and Elisa Diaz spoke of Agustin Lara's contribution to culture. The theater was filled to capacity - not a seat left to be sold. As the concert opened, the orchestra
was onstage with a portrait stage left of Agustin Lara, one of Mexico's best known and loved composers, song writers and lyricists. President Garcia spoke a few words and introduced Mayor W.R. Holcomb who presented Mrs. Gasca with an honorary citizenship in San Bemardino and a floral bouquet.
Without further ado, Eduardo Rodriguez and Frances Vasquezproceeded to introduce each musical selection in Spanish and English with clever witticisms and tales from the life of Agustin Lara. The opening selection was a short recording of Mi Novia, played on the piano and sung by Lara himself. This elicited a sentimental sigh from the audience.

IMPACTO - 2000
INS Raids Denounced At a press conference held on Friday,
March 29, 1990 in San Bemardino, IMPACTO-2000 leaders bitterly denounced the recent raids and sweeps conducted by the Border Patrol as negatively impacting the ceasus count. Dr. Armando Navarro, National President of IMPACTO-20(X), stated "We are angry and dismayed that at such a critical time when so many people, organizations, agencies, churches, etc. are working so hard to convince the undocumented and others who are dis-tmstful of the census process to participate, the Border Patrol has chosen to come in to our community like storm troopers spreading their contagion of fear, hence disrupting and impeding a fuU census count" Navarro added, "recognizing the im
portance of an accurate census coimt, IMPACTO-2000 is calling for a national moratorium on border Patrol raids and sweeps of our communities until at least April 15,1990. IMPACTO-2000 representatives ex
plained that they have been and will continue to be in contact with numerous Congressman, U.S. Senators, INS Commissioner, and President Bush concerning the moratorium request. Juan Jose Gutierrez, National Secre
tary of IMPACTC)-2000 and Executive
Director of One-Stop Immigration, further explained that IMPACTO's position on the moratorium is based on Latinos again not realizing an accurate census count. He said, "Latinos, like other minorities cannot afford an under-count since its going to have a very serious effect on the allocation of federal revenues for services and programs and additional political representatirai." At the press conference. Dr. Navamo
introduced two 17 year old Colombian bom San Bemardino High School students who alleged they were apprehended by the Border Patrol on Tuesday, March 27, 1990 near the high school for being in this country illegally even though the students presented to the Border Patrol officers their green cards. After being threatened with a gun and driven aroimd for some three hours they were released by the Border Patrol on the condition that they would,not report this to anyone.
Russell Juarequi, Spokesperson for Inland Counties Latino Lawyers Associations said, "this incident coupled with the recent raids in Ontario and Los Angeles, especially LAX Airport, ai« illustrative of how the Border Patrol is hampering the census taking efforts among immigrants."

Mexico's President Salinas Remains Enigma By: Richard Salvatierra
The dramatic changes of political scenery in Eastern Europe - the cnim-bling of one Communist regime after another - understandably is having a profound affect on the future of that part of the world. The changes also will influence the
political future of practically every other country of the world, and not least those of Latin America where democracy always has been a fragile commodity. In this sense, perhaps the most interesting of all Latin American countries to be watching today is none other than Mexico, where the traditionally dominant Institutional Revolutionary Party (PRI) faces increasing challenge, and ever-louder demands that it open

up the political process in an entirely honest way. President Carlos Salinas de Gortari,
who won office with just 50.7 percent of the popular vote - a figure questioned by opposition parties - knows full well that the Mexican Revolution has run its course and that it is just as obsolete as that of the Soviet Union. And he knows that Mexico, now more than ever, must become a part of die democratic trend sweeping across all frontiers. Sixteen months into his six-year term, Salinas is feeling those pressures but reacting to them in a puzzling, ambivalent way. He has spoken about Mexico's "out
moded" past and of the "dogma" that has hindered the nation's growth. He has declared that the country is leaving behind the "outmoded view that confused being progressive with being statist." Salinas has said he wants to continue "the modernization" of the electoral process, a reference perhaps to a few concessions made by the PRI in connection with the elections of July 1988, and he has encouraged Mexicans to "adopt a new political culture." On the other hand, he has pointed out
that the political and economic reforms he is seeking should not be taken to mean that "we (have) moved away from

the basic principles of the Mexican Revolution...Modernization is the means to make the Revolution endure." That statement could have been made by one of his predecessors, the left-leaning Luis Echcverria. Although Salinas has paved the way
for more flexible rules regarding foreign private investment and has taken steps to reduce government control of industry, it is fairly obvious he has no intention of going all the way, so to speak. According to him, government definitely wiU continue to keep its hands on the nation's "strategic" industries, such as railroads, petroleum, electrical energy and the rails. Their nationalization many years ago, he emphasizes, remains "irreversible." The acid test of Salinas' promise to
move toward faster and greater political "modernization" (a euphemism for democratization) probably will come in the summer of 1991, when midterm elections are to be held for several governorships, for seats in some state legislatures and seats in the national Congress. Leaders of the main opposition party, file right-of-center National Action Party (PAN), express doubt that those midteim elections will be totally honest, especially because the government will continue to control the electoral process. A significant breakthrough was the
election, in July 1988, of a PAN candidate for, the govemprship of Baja California, Carlos Ruffo Apple. This was the first time in more than a half-century of rule by the PRI that it had allowed a governorship to go to an op
position party. Salinas has taken a number of dra
matic steps in his first 16 months in office, including the firings of three governors (all in states that didn't vote for him); he has gone after drug lords and clipped the winds of some labor leaders; he has been instrumental in drastically reducing inflation; and he has helped set U.S. - Mexico relations on a smoother course than hereto^j|||. Yet, so far, SaHnas remains somethmg of an enigma, and particularly in the context of all of the far-reaching changes taking place in Eastern Europe. One may assume his ambivalence reflects noting more than an effort to placate orthodox members of his party. But we don't know for sure. Only time may tell, maybe after mid-1991, where he really stands.

"The 5th Sinfonia Mexicana, which was a tribute to Agustin Lara, one of the most famous composers in Latin America, was a sellout success and an outstanding evening of musical enjoyment.

EDUCATION Inland Empire Hispanic News Wednesday, April 11,1990
25th Anniversary of San Bernardino County Head Start Celebrated On April 5,1990, The County of San Bernardino celebrated the 25TH ANNIVERSARY OF THE HEAD START PROGRAM at the National Orange Show. The Head Start Program was officially started in May 18, 1965 by President Johnson. The President stated that "the Program was to rescue these children from the poverty which otherwise could pursue them aU their lives. The project was designed to put them on an even footing with their classmates as they enter school." The idea for the program had come in 1962 from the President's Panel on Mental Retardation, which proposed such a program for children with retardation. By early 1965, the idea had taken hold among people concemed with early childhood education. Throughout the United States, there was concurrence that disadvantaged children needed stimulation and support in educational, social, and intellectual areas. Also of importance was health care;
the new program could intervene to check children's eyes, ears, and immunization status. Another key feature was the program's emphasis on involvement of parents with child in local programs. Perhaps the most innovative feature of the program was that, instead of recruiting those children from poverty who were most likely to succeed, Head Start reached out to the 55 poorest counties in the nation, to children who would usually be least likely to be recruited. They were the first of many other children and families who have benefited from participation in Head Start. The program today is remarkably like it was at its inception. Sophistication has come in many program areas, and Head Start has learned from experience. Yet, it still reaches out to the poorest children, health care is still provided along with education, and parents are considered important participants in the program. In its 25 years. Head Start has become
an important landmark in the social, educational, health policy areas. Head Start is part of the social fabric of our country, and the program is still growing, stiU producing "Head Start success stories" of the Head Start children who went on to become lawyers, teachers, or other types of professionals.
The over all goal of the Head Start program, nationally and in San Bernardino County, is to bring about a greater degree of social competence in children of low income families. By social competence is meant the child's everyday effectiveness in dealing with both present environment and later responsibilities in school and life. Social competence takes into account the inter-relatedness of cognitive and intellectual development, physical and mental health, nutritional needs, and other factors that enable a developmental approach to helping children achieve social competence. Since 1965, the Preschool Services
Department in San Bernardino has served children and families in the

Sinfonia Mexicana -The first piece - Three Mexican
Waltzes, arranged for orchestra by Manuel Enriquez, was pure fun - a bit fragmented, Hollywoodian and even reminiscent of Johann Strauss, definitely convert waltzes and not intended for dancing. Agustin Lara's Suite, based on his
themes and composed by Mateo Oliva, was a tour de force - a lilting, colorful tribute that was Uliva's own work in spite of his thematic sources and it concluded with a brilliant orchestration of the popular song "Granada" with some orientalism and all the passion of a bull fight. There was some excellent playing by Karen Togashi (piccolo) and Grant Hungerford (trumpet). The crowd was ecstatic and it was
a most appropriate first half closer. After intermission, the audience was
treated to two of Lara's songs - "Noche de Ronda" and "Granada," performed beautifully by Maestro Refugio "Ernie" Gomez, known to local mu.sical lovers as a fine musician and conductor of the Canto Bello Chorale. Little did we know he possessed such a fine, lyric baritone voice. He also orchestrated the compositions along with Daniel Garcia BlaiKO. Intermezzo followed by Manuel M.
Ponce, arranged for orchestra by Mario Kuri-Aldana. This lovely piano rhapsody found new color and excitement in its orchestrated version. The final selection was Noche Tibia y Callada by Mario Kuii-Aldana, enjoying its first world-wide performance (it
Continued from Page 1 was commission by the Inland Empire Symphony Association). This exciting composition, based on Lara's themes, utilized various instrumental solos which were beautifully rendered by Tamsen Beseke-Brenton (concertmas-ter-violin). Grant Hungerford (trumpet), Loren Marsteller (trombone), John Ralston (English horn), Leslie Stratton (harp), Paul Stevens (French horn) and a quintet of diligent percussionists, plus Michael Tacchia with some salsa of his own on the piano. This was the most "serious" woik on
the program. Although such a popular Lara melody as "You Belong to My Heart" was immediately recognizable and other pop melodies and rhythms tended to lighten the work, it was a
composition of classical intent and beautifully orchestrated - almost Rimsky-Korsakovian in its brilliant color and texture.
Unsure that the concert had really ended, the audience at first responded with polite applause and then burst into thunderous applause. This resulted in a brilliant encore - "Huapango" by Pablo Moncayo - and the audience simply went wild with a standing ovation. A lovely reception ensued at the
Mahal (S.B. County Government Center) with tasty refreshments, a display of Yolanda Santa Cruz Gasca's own photographic artistry and a gathering of the community, which heartily agreed that this was, indeed, "una noche inolvidable!"
