ASG slashes Student Help Center Funds Despite stiff opposition, the Associated Student Government unanimously voted to cut the Student Help Center's total hours per month to 85 and to combine the SHARE program with the Help Center. The debate, which lasted almost one hour, saw the Help Center questioned by the ASG on the amount of service provided compared to the amount it cost to run the center.
Carol Hanley and Michael Lesher, directors of the center, argued that without the Center the Book Swap would be discontinued. However, Dean Norman Price, informed the ASG that the job of handling the swap could be let out for bid to a certain club since the swap does show a profit.
claim, "I'm sorry they feel that way, but it just isn't so . I can see why they're bitter having to leave, but I feel in the long run everything will work out for the best. SHARE is a good program and I'm positive they will do a good job."
Hanley also pointed out that she felt it even more unfair because, "We were all hired for two semesters and now we're going to have to decide who is going to leave and which one of us is going to stay."
The Palomar chapter of the SHARE program is funded by the college district and provides tutoring throughout the college district. The program has the largest enrollment in the country and is run by Albie Armistead, who has a master's degree in Psychology.
ASG Legislator Andy Wright pointed out that the Center cost over $8,000, which accounts for approximately 15% of the ASG budget. "The Student Help Center started in 1972 After the meeting Hanley said that she as a strictly volunteer organization receiving felt that the ASG mishandled their money, no funds, and in 10 years it has developed "Because of that fact I suppose that the move into an expenditure of over $8,000," observ- was something they had to do." ed Dr. Ken Burns.

terest and without the in school interest subsidy). Currently at Palomar an estimated 1478 students are receiving $1,621,585. This includes all loans, grants and forms of employment here, other than District monies. Based upon proposed reductions, Palomar would lose approximately $686,899, which can be translated into 500 students that would be unable to attend Palomar because of financial aid cuts. The impact on the campus itself of the loss of the enrollment as well as the loss of Federal College Work/Study employment positions here, would be as follows: First, the campus would have a loss of $810,000, caused by the drop in the average daily attendance of 450 students that would be unable to attend Palomar. Second, approximately 50 College Work/Study positions on campus would be eliminated, thus making it necessary to spend District money to perform tasks formerly performed by College Work/Study Students.
J.C. Lowery, ASG legislator, expressed his opinion. "I think it is a good idea to combine the talents of students and the professional organization to provide better service." In other ASG actions the board appointed Lisa Noonan, Andy Wright and Bruce Baker as new legislators. Also Dan Trunk was appointed as the new Judicial Advocate. The ASG also agreed to review the college grievance policies.

Campus groups fight aid cuts Campus groups are uniting to fight the possible reduction offinancial aid that is occurring nationwide. The Faculty Senatt, the Classified Staff of California State Employees Association (CSEA), the Associated Student Government, the Inter-Club Counce! (ICC), and the American Indian Organization are all attempting to minimize the problems caused by the financial aid cuts. Students applying for the Guaranteed Student Loan Program, after the financial aids cuts, will find themseves faced with some major restrictions. They are the doubling of the college fees from five to ten percent, also borrowers will now have to pay market interest rates two years after entering repayment. The last restriction is the removing of graduate and professional students from eligibility for Guaranteed Loans (They would continue to be eligible for the new program of Auxiliary Loans to assist students, at 14 percent in-
move into the Help Center's office and provide for the center's duties when the employee is not there. Armistead, director of the SHARE program, expressed her happiness. "I am pleased to receive the chance to help the students. Helping people is my goal in life. I love the students here."
The District may not be able to absorb the additional cost. The picture nationwide also does not look good. In fact the cuts would remove over a million students from Pell Grants (formerly called Basic Grants) and eliminate another 1.3 million awards under the campusbased programs. Grants to the neediest students would be sharply reduced, and the programs would no longer be available to most students from families with incomes between $10,000 and $25,000. The Guaranteed Loan modifications would increase debt burdens for all borrows and force many to change their educational plans or drop out of school. Students should contact the Financial Aids Office in Staff Building 4 for more information. The hours during the day are Monday through Friday are 8:30 a.m. to 4:45 p.m. and nights Tuesday and Wednesday 6 p.m. to 8 p.m. or students can call Financial Aids at 744-2366.
It has never been easier to get a library card at Palomar College Library. Students registering for the Spring semester have founder's card attached to the receipt they receive after registering for classes. The detachable card may be used to borrow a wide range of materials from the Main Library or the Fine Arts Library. Library staff would like to remind local residents that community library cards are available, free of charge, at the circulation desk of the Main Library. To be eligible for borrowing privileges, community members must be over the age of 18 and reside within the Palomar College district. New library users are encouraged to ask the staff for assistance in finding library materials. During the library's transition from the Dewey Decimal classification system to the more versatile Library of Congress system, materials may be temporarily out-of-place.
Library users who have grown up on the Dewey system may need to familiarize themselves with the new classification system. Briefly, the Dewey system relies on a number/decimal means of classifying books while the Library of
Congress scheme uses a combination of letters (A-Z) and numbers. To make students and the community more comfortable in the library, a multi-page guide to the library is free for the asking. For those who like the guided tour approach, a 20 minute cassette audio-tour is also available.
Social security benefits available Students between -the ages of 18 and 22 may be eligible for social security benefits earned by a retired, disabled or deceased parent or grandparent. By the May 1 deadline, a student must be enrolled in a college or university full time to take advantage of this program. Students already receiving Social Security benefits under this program will have these monies continue until age 22 if they maintain full time student status. A student may attend college while still in high school with the consent of a high school counselor. Those who qualify should contact a Financial Aids counselor here.
Traffic improvements far down the road By Ken Baer It's twelve noon and your classes are over for the day. The weather has changed from drizzily overcast to warm dry sunshine. You look forward to getting home to relax, eat lunch, soak in some rays. But first you must wait. And wait. The scene is a familiar one which has plauged Palomar students year after year: the traffic encountered when attempting to exit campus. It is frustrating and monotonous. When it is raining it takes even LONGER to get out. Some drivers refer to them as "the Tijuana lines,'~ a realistic comparison. No matter what you may call them, the wait is definitely a pain in the neck. You can not seem to · avoid it, whether your'e coming to school in the morning for an 8 a.m. class, or exiting at noon or 9:30p.m. As usual, though, the first weeks of the semester are the worst for traffic. John Kratt, campus Traffic Coordinator, asks students to "grin and bear it," until the traffic thins in a month or so, or until the time comes that a veritable solution is presented. In the December 4 issue of 'The Telescope' a story was printed which told of traffic improvements which were
scheduled to have begun by now. However, the city of San Marcos has run into fianancial problems, and it is apparent that road improvements are far down the ..oad. According to San Marcos city manager Henry Ford, the entire construction project, which consists of the installation of four traffic signals and the widening of existing streets as well as the construction of new streets will cost an estimated 4.5 million dollars. As of now, the city has come up with only 1.7 million dollars. "Wev'e tapped every source," says Ford. "The municipal bonds are not being purchased by property owners because of the high interest rate." Improvements which will aid Palomar's traffic woes will be the widening of Mission Road and the Las Posas access to campus, which will create a second entrance, via parking lot #12. This second entrance, according to Ford, will be funded by a private contractor who is developing a housing tract north of Las Posas Road. Alan Schuler, civil engineering assistant for the city, said that the biggest step left for construction to begin is to get railroad right of way at the intersection of
Pacific and Pico. He also said that the original design of Mission Road has drainage problems, soon to be worked out, and that San Diego Gas and Electric Company has yet to submit their engineering report. Both Schuler and Ford agree that a June beginningconstruction date is not improbable, design-wise. Where the money will come from, however, is a question left unanswered. San Marcos city officials felt that by undertaking a traffic improvement project of this magnitude the city would save money in the long run. It is now felt that instead of going ahead with the entire project, the widening of Mission Road will begin first, with the city's 1.7 million dollars. "The widening of Mission Road · from a two-lane road to a fourlane will only turn the street into a speedway," says Palomar's Robert Jackson, Public Service Coordinator. "The speed limit on Mission is currently 45 mph, and the possibility of the limit going even higher is not impracticle." Jackson, who sits on the San Marcos Traffic Safety Board, explained that a speed limit is determined by the average speed of vehicles traveling on the road and also from an engineering aspect: road surface, sidings,
visibility."San Marcos sees Palomar College as a headache, and doesn't regard the college as beneficial. The city is concerned with ·getting as much business inside it's influence as possible," according to Jackson. "There is some kind of prestige of having a college in town," remarked city manager Ford.
"But I don't see how the city benifits. I'm not saying that Palomar is a detriment to the city in a material way, but I don't see that it is an asset, economically." Jeri Brennenan, assistant administrator for the San Marcos Chamber of Commerce,echoes Continued to page 2

They use our roads, and we don't really benefit as far as money being put into San Marcos businesses by students and staff of Palomar." Brennenan agreed that the college does support San Marcos gas stations and restaurants.
City manager Ford concludes : "This project is a tremendously complex undertaking, and by setting a deadline we're doing too much. We need to get all the marbles in one basket. By the first of June the city council should have approved the plans for the housing tract, which means that construction of a second entrance to Palomar College is ver y near."

Comets nab second in golf tourney
Comeback Comets tie for tourney title Using last inning rallies in every game, the Comet baseball team . swept its three opponents in the 15th annual Palomar/ MiraCosta tournament, held February 12, 13 and 14. The locals beat Yuba 5-4, S.D. Mesa 9-8, and College of the Dessert 9-3 to finish tied for the championship with Mt. San Antonio. Never lacking for thrills, the weekend tourney drew large crowds to the eight-team affair. The format was changed to a round-robin style because of heavy rains, but that didn't stop the Comets from proving their ability. Opening the tournament against Yuba, Palomar used solo homers by Mike Snyder and Troy Afenir to jump out to a quick lead. An RBI single in the sixth inning by Afenir put the locals on top 3-0. Russ Applegate, the Comets' ace right-hander out of San Pasqua! High School, pitched six innings of scoreless, three-hit ball before exiting. Yuba scored two runs in the seventh and ninth innings to tie the game at 4-4 entering the final frame for the Comets. When Mark Matson walked, Todd Landreth sacrificed Matson to second, and Steve Afenir singled to left center, the locals had won their first game of the 1982 season. "I was very happy to start the season with a victory," said coach Bob Vetter.
Tim Lund, who came on in the ninth to stop a Yuba rally, picked up the win. On Saturday, the Comets scored nine runs in the final inning to shock highly-regarded Mesa College. The rally started with one out and the Comets losing 8-0. A pair of walks and a double by Snyder loaded the bases. Palomar then strung together five consecutive singles by Matson, S. Afenir, Landreth and Bobby Chambers to score five runs. John Grygera grounded out to bring home the sixth tally of the inning. Now down to their final out, the Comets had two runners on base and looked to their number nine hitter in the lineup, Chip Hayes. Hayes promptly hit a two run single to tie the game. After Snyder's second single of the inning, Mitch Trybroski capped the comeback with a climatic double up the alley in right-center field, scoring Hayes with the winning run. "It was a tremendous comeback," admitted Vetter. "A classic," added former Palomar baseball head coach Jim Clayton, who happily watched his old team. Clayton quit the job last year after 15 seasons. The Comets completed their sweep Sunday behind strong pitching from freshman Carl Grovom. Grovom, Lund and Will Flynt combined to throw a two-hitter

The Telescope, Friday, February 26, 1982
New editor explains newspaper changes By Andy Wright When the idea of being Editor-in Chief was first presented to me about three months ago, many doubts went through my mind. I knew I wouldn't become famous for saying anything like "Go west, young man!" and I knew the Telescope wasn't the New York Times(even though it might as well have been). So after weeks of contemplating, I decided to give it a try along with Michelle Jansen, my co-editor. Together with last semester's staff and a number of new staff members we began preliminary planning of the Telescope. What you see in this edition is what we at the Telescope hope is the beginning of a new tradition, the product of hours upon hours of hard work by everyone involved. We feel we have reached our goal which was to present to you the reader, an easy to read, informative prize-winning paper. The first change you probably noticed was the new masthead on page one. This perhaps was our biggest challenge. We wanted a design that would be modern, easily recognized and not too crowded. The next change is that of the dateline and the page number on top of each page. This is designed to give the reader a quick index to 'individual sections. Change three is that we've positioned the
opinion page from two to four and sports from four to three. We introduced late last semester a new cartoonist. He is Mike Peters, a nationally known, highly-acclaimed controversial artist. His work will run on the opinion page under "Peter's World." Speaking about the opinion page, we plan to bring you more interesting opinions, and more reviews of movies, plays, concerts and restaurants. Our policy here at the Telescope is one of an open door. Anyone is welcome to visit the Graphic Arts-} ournalism area here at the Telescope. As editor I will talk to you or set up an appointment and discuss any complaints or answer any questions I can. All letters to the editor will be printed as long as they have a valid signature and are from someone involved with the college. Letters will be brought before the editorial board consisting of me, my co-editor Michelle and three other staff members. This board votes on all issues where there is a conflict of interest concerning the paper. Remember that this is not just our paper, it's your paper too. I hope you take an active interest in it and use it to its full intent. On behalf of myself and the entire staff, we sincerely hope you like our changes and continue to read what we intend to keep the finest college newspaper in San Diego County.

Help available for Bulemic victims suffering from binge-purge cycle She is typically a bright, achievement oriented individual who has many accomplishments to her credit. Yet her days are a nightmare of eating binges followed by self-induced vomiting, laxative abuse, or fasting . The woman is a victim of bulimia. Research indicates that bulimics do not overeat out of hunger but to release distressing tension . This tension can be caused by the bulimics need for social, career or academic perfection. In living with such high expectations these individuals tend to feel a loss of control in their lives and food
becomes a way of controlling it. The bingepurge cycle becomes a temporary release for feelings of anger and depression, feelings typically not well expressed by bulimics. Serious physical consequences can result from the pattern of hinging and purging. Abdominal pain and dehydration of the skin occurs. Hair may become dry and fall out. Laxative abuse causes constipation and dulled intestional nerves . The stomach acid passing through the mouth can result in swelling and infection of the salivary glands and rotting teeth. Bulimics are usually aware that the bingepurge pattern is abnormal so they are careful to hide the disorder. For a chronic bulimic the syndrome precludes a normal social life. Many hours are spent eating and vomiting so nearly all social contact is cut off. Help is available to persons suffering from this syndrome.
