Government impasse forces funding cuts By Polly Filanc "Terrible!" was the immediate reaction of Palomar president/superinten-dent Dr. Omar Scheidt to Governor George Deukmejian's and state legislators' failure last week to reach an agreement on community college funding. "It's very unfortunate that the legislators and the Governor couldn't reach an agreement to support the community college system, which is a very valuable educational program." Dr. Scheidt has recently made trips to Sacramento urging legislators to pass bills that would restore $108.5 million in state aid to community colleges. But to no avail. Palomar is now short $1.5 million from last year's budget. The Governor vetoed the state aid bill because the state assembly voted against the tuition fees. Whether or not the college can cope with the loss, Dr. Scheidt stresses that the "quality of education will be affected." Presently Palomar's Board of Trustees is in the process of identifying areas to be cut further. "The Board will look at each line of the budget and make recommendations," Dr. Scheidt adds. "Unless the Governor calls a special session to deal with community college finance, nothing will happen until January (when the state legislature reconvenes). My projection is that if the attitudes don't change by then nothing will happen to restore the funding for community colleges." Nearly $800,000 has been cut from Palomar's $23 million budget. Some of the cuts include over 90 class sections, library books, non-salary
costs, certificated and classified hours, telephone service, equipment replacement, remodeling of facilities, replacement of personnel, contract reductions, and travel expenses. College officials have also reduced the undistributed reserve fund in order to avoid cutting the staffs fringe benefits. Unless community college funds are restored Dr. Scheidt says, "We will have to cut deeper in the spring since the college will be short $650,000." Further cuts might include faculty salaries, additional class sections, staff, programs, fringe benefits, certificate programs, plus certificated and classified hours. Dr. Scheidt emphasizes that "This is not something that was predetermined by the Board or the administration. This was an action taken by the Governor when he bluepenciled the state community
college system's budget by $232 million. "Tea chers 'a re very displeased and staff morale is low." To further complicate finances, college officials planned to save $25,000 this semester by enrolling students to the CAP, which is the limit of enrollment in which the state will pay. " Anything over the CAP," says Dr. Scheidt, "we don't get paid for. "To lower enrollment, we reduced the number of sections to approach the enrollment CAP, because we over-enrolled last spring." Unfortunately, Dr. Scheidt estimates Palomar is six percent below the enrollment CAP, so that the school receives $25,000 less than anticipated. Enrollment, currently at 16,740, is down 14.7 percent WSCHS (Weekly Student Contact Hours) from last fall.
Among the reasons for the lower enrollment at Palomar and other community colleges, according to Dr. Scheidt, are, "People are working more and can't carry as heavy a class load. Also, the economy has changed and with more people in the workforce, people have set aside educational plans. As there is an increase in employment opportunity, there is a decrease in enrollment." Whether or not the confusion over tuition fees is a cause for the lower enrollment, Dr. Scheidt indicates, "We have no evidence if that is a factor. " But if a tuition fee does go into effect, Dr. Scheidt anticipates losing 1,800 students. Because of the budget crisis facing community colleges, Dr. Scheidt's opinion towards imposing tuition fees has changed.

"I have always been opposed to tuition fees in community colleges. However, because of the present financial condition of the state and community colleges, I support the Governor's recommendation of the fee. "But I have recommended that it (tuition) ben on a five dollar per unit basis for anything below six units, and a flat $50 fee for six units and above. "The Governor has agreed to this, but the assembly hasn't agreed to fees." Compared to other community colleges, Palomar was "penalized when Proposition 13 passed, because we did not have a large reserve and had a low tax base. "This was then incorporated into the state distribution formula. So Palomar has not received the same amount of revenue per student as other districts. We are below the state average of revenue per student. "MiraCosta has a better reserve and they are slightly more comfortable than Palomar. "San Diego City College has a greater reserve and they have a larger student body in non-credit adult education which has lower cost programs."

Mission Road • construction date on target Mission Road traffic snarls will soon be a thing of the past. Roadwork is "on target" and is scheduled for completion this December, according to San Marcos City Planner Darrell Gentry. When completed, Mission Road will have four automobile lanes and one bicycle lane. The $4.2 million contract was awarded to Thibodo Construction Company. Thibodo crews have been working on the project since groundbreaking ceremonies April19. Also on the drawing board is Palomar's Lot 12 entry and exit access on Los Posas Road, which is scheduled to begin next spring if funds are available. Gentry expects to receive a "significant percentage" of the funds from the Community Development Block Grant, which is a federally funded program under the Department of Housing and Urban Development. According to Palomar president/ superintendent Dr. Omar Scheidt, the college's share in the two-mile Mission Road project is $269,000. $219,000 is from the college's captal outlay allocated by the state, and $50,000 is from the student parking fund. Dr. Scheidt says that Palomar's request for the Los Posas connection will help eliminate congestion on campus and will enable traffic to enter and exit through the college's "back door." During the final months of construction, Dr. Scheidt recommends students drive carefully and allow more time to get to class.
In order to protect community colleges from a loss of enrollment revenue if tuition fees go into effect, according to Dr. Scheidt, a clause is placed in the bill, indicating that the community colleges will be "held harmless forever over the loss of enrollment, so that the 1982-83 revenue base would remain the same."
Over 6,000 books, including 1,500 classics, will be sold at "bargain prices" during the fourth annual Book Fair October 8 from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. at the San Marcos Elementary School.

"The college student should find a treasure in these classics," according to Dorothy Hay, publicity chairman for the Friends of the Library of San Marcos. "We hope to make $2,000 from the Book Fair.

COMMENTARY
Editor welcomes opinions; states newspaper's policy By Polly Filanc Hot? How hot? So hot that Governor Deukmejian spent most of his summer fanning himself with budget problems, which left community colleges steaming. As a result, community coll eges (Palomar included) have had to cut back their programs to fit the enormous monetary losses dictated by the state. Furthermore, many community college newspapers h ave had to face major setbacks and changes. For instance, San Diego City College's daytime paper was cut out of their curriculum for nefarious budget reasons, while MiraCosta has had to transfer their paper's production and printing to Palomar. Just how Palomar fares at the end of the legisl a ture's nebulous rainbow remai ns to be seen. At least The Telescope will be around this semester to keep its readers informed on budget issues and campus re lated activities, as well as provide a forum for reader discussion and opinion. Since this is the semester's first issue of The Telescope, it has been the tradition of each editor to welcome the readers . In ex tending a welcome, the staff and I are looking forward to serving our readers with news, features and editorials. We a lso encourage your op inions and ideas through our Letters to the Editor section. Letters should be brought to GJ -6 by 11 a.m. on Fridays. All viewpoints are welcome as long as they comply with state statutes and/or community standards on libel and obscenity. If a club submits a letter "as a club" it must be co-signed by the club president. Letters should also be limited to 250 words, if possible. Each letter must be signed. The Telescope also welcomes its readers to feel free to bring in photograph s, cartoon work and other newsworthy material that pertains to our campus. Since this is our first issue, it is necessary to state our Editorial Policy. The obligations of The Telescope staff are to report as accurately and fairly as possible, considering the stress of deadlines, and to comment fairly a nd constructively. Realizing that The Telescope is a student newspaper and a vital means of communication for Palomar, the staff will give the greatest emphasis to activities and issues originating within the college. This will not preclude printing news and opinions about off-campus activities and issues that affect the students and/or the college. At no time will The Telescope print matter that is libelous or offensive to community standards of taste and decency or contains ethnic, religious or racial slurs. The Telescope also opposes the publicati on of propaganda under the guise of news, editorials or columns. The Telescope is a non-partisan publication and has no on-campus or off-campus political affiliation. However, columnists will be free to take any position on any candidate, party or issue, because columns are only the opinions of the individual writers. The Telescope editorials are the opinions of the editorial board. All other editorial page material, such as feature columns, is the opinion of the individual writer, not The Telescope. Within the limits of the Education Code, The Telescope is entitled to the rights accorded to press in a free society, and, therefore, has the right to criticize and point out shortcomings in any phase of school life or in any situation which affects students or the college. The Telescope rea lizes that the exercise of this freedom en tails a h eavy
burden of responsibility. The Telescope accepts the following responsibilities: 1. Controversial Telescope editorials and feature columns shall be based always on the issues, not personalities. Although individuals and organizations may be named, comment will be limited to their activities, policies and stated opinions regarding the issue under discussion . 2. Any individual or group critized in Telescope editorials or feature columns shall be afforded equal space in a position of equa l prominence. Each reply is to be published as soon as possible following the criticism. Mere differences of opinion shall not be construed as criticism. The individual or group criticized must be clearly identified in the editorial or feature column to which a reply is addressed. Replies must reach The Telescope by 11 a.m. Friday and will be reviewed by the editorial board. The rules forbidding libel, affronts to community standards of taste and decency, and ethnic, racial or religious slurs shall apply with the same force to rep li es as all other material published in The Telescope. 3. Statements made "in public" shall be defined as those made in any meeting or gathering officially sanctioned by the college and open to the student or faculty public. When such statements contain rna terial unfavorable to any individual or group, the quoting or paraphrasing of the statements in the news columns of The Telescope shall be construed as reporting the news, not as attacks emanating from The Telescope. The same shall apply to statements given in interviews. However, it shall be the responsibility of the staff writer covering the story to give the criticized or accused person or group the opportunity to reply in the same story. The reply may be edited, but not deleted or its meaning changed . Failure to reply shall not be grounds for delaying publication. The Telescope staff may make mistakes, but not without benefitting from those mistakes, and not without full realization that they are responsible for those mistakes. When a factual misstatement of any consequence is made, a correction will be published. The Telescope's Editorial Policy shall be displayed in The Telescope editorial office.

IMeyer paces grid wins
SHOT ON GOAL- Sweeper Jaimie Mendez (left) and goal keeper Steve Pandolfe combine in a futile attempt to stop Glendale CC in a (Photo by Jon Sparks) recent loss.
Men's soccer squad seeks league crown Despite losses to Fullerton and Glendale last week, the men's soccer team, led by Coach Frank Hankin, has high hopes for the new season. The league season begins today as the Comets host Imperial Valley, today at 3 p.m. on the soccer field . The Comets' second place standing in last weekend's Desert Cup Tourn ament, according to Hankin, is a good indicator of how the team will fare against such top teams as the El Camino Warriors. In the tourney the Comets finished ahead oflO other teams and went on to play the championship game against West Valley College losing 3-1.
Although the team didn't win the
tournament, Coach Hankin believes that the quick, precise passing and determination that the players demonstrated will help the team win the league. According to Hankin, the Comet's strong points include a valuable defense, led by defensive sweeper Jaime Mendez, and a "very strong" left halfback Eddie Villanueva. Seven of the team members are returning lettermen . Among these are high scoring members Mendez, Sal Alvarez, and Ricardo Mendez.
Bill Wilson An aptl y coined "Air Craft" soared over Rio Hondo Saturday 207 in the Comets' home opener at San Marcos High , a nd gained momentum for tomorrow afternoon's game at Allan Hancock in Santa Maria. A crowd es tim ated at 1500 watched Palomar live up to its new name behind the passing of quarterback Mike Meyer. Meyer pierced the Roadrunners' defensive secondary while hitting on 20 of 33 passes for 219 yards and two touchdowns. But a 45 yard TD toss to Tim Adams in the third quarter seemed to deflate any hopes th e visitors had of spoiling Palom ar's initial h ome contest. " We were able to break their coverage," said h ead coach Tom Craft of Adams' catch. "It was a play that we hurt them with last year." Both teams were tied at halftime 77. But early in the third quarter, Meyer, a former Poway Titan, spotted Adams splitting the seam. With no defenders within 15 yards, Adams collected Meyer's aerial and proceeded untouched into the end
zone, making the score 14-7 after Dan l gnosci's extra point conversion. On Rio's n ext possession, a swarming Comet defense stymied the Roadrunners' offensive attack when Rodney Brown and Tony Jackson combined to sack Rio Hondo QB Brian Douglas. Faced with a third and long situation, the visitor's pass attempt was thwarted when defensive back Jeff Adams snared his first of two interceptions a nd carried it back to th e opponent's 39 yard line. Six
plays later, Leo Toloumu scampered around left end to put the hosts a h ead 20-7, rounding out the scoring for the day. In the Comets' season opener, Palomar nudged past Orange Coast when Meyer hit tight end Eric Russell on a 36 yard pass play with 53 seconds remaining. Meyer co nn ected on 26 of 42 passes while collecting 270 yards and three touchdowns to give Craft his first victory as coach. Lafo Malauulu ca ught a record 13 passes for 152 yards.
Women kickers gain victory Opening their season successfully , the women's soccer team scored a 4-0 win against Long Beach September 23. Scoring first for Palomar was Erin Casey, while Marisa Hurtado, playing rover, scored the second goal. The final two goals were kicked-in by Monica Williams. All ofthe goals were unassisted. Defending for Palomar was Kathy Hause, Pam Knisley, and Casey, all of whom played together previously
at Vista High School. Coach Judy Mazzarella feels the women are adept at ball control. She is stressing verbal communication in game playing a nd during practice this week. The team goes against El Camino, the reigning champs h ere today, at 3 p.m. Palomar is also hosting an Invitational tomorrow at 9 a.m. The teams that will play are Mount San Antonio, El Camino and UCSD.
CASIO NOW OFFERS STUDENT AID. We at Casio figured you could use a little help this semester (not to mention a few extra bucks). So we're offering a $5 rebate on our FX-98 and FX-91 0 solar powered scientific calculators, which regularly sell for $29.95. The FX-910 is a wallet sized unit with 48 scientific functions. The FX-98 is credit card size with 42 scientific functions. Both feature an 8 digit mantissa with 2 digit exponent.
As a result of the excellent performance in the tournament, says Hankin, "The athletes are inspired. I think we will win the league."
Water poloists optimistic
Both feature fractional calculations (a function not found on many comparable units). So now you can work with fractions without having to convert to decimals. And since both units incorporate a powerful solar cell that can operate in very low light, they'll not only save you time and energy, they'll save you from ever having to buy batteries. The FX -98 and FX -91 0 also come with a free application manual, "Strategies for Scientific Calculating," which will save you work by showing you shortcuts for using your calculator. So if you think you could use a little student aid this semester, take advantage of our $5 rebate offer. And bring a Casio to class.

despite opening losses
Where miracles never cease
By Bob Cameron Following th e water polo team's one win and three losses at the Mountie Invitational tournament last weekend at Mt. San Antonio College, Coach Don Hubbard said he was pleased with the progress his team h as made. Two of those losses were in the final seconds to tough teams. " We played good water polo . We're really improving," Hubbard said . Palomar began the tourney with an impressive win over Mt. SAC 115. Kevin Sullivan was high scorer with five goals , while Art McMahon ha d nine saves. Next the tankmen fell to a strong Mesa squad 13-3. They went on to lose their last two , a h eartstopper to Cypress 11-10 and an equally hard loss to De Anza 8-6. High scorers for the Comets were Pip White and Sullivan with 10 and nine goals, respectively . McMahon registered 27 saves. Tony Bennett was named best a ll-around player in two games fo r both his offensive and defensive play.
Women cagers meet Women in terested in playing on th e women's intercollegiate basketball team should meet with Coach Judy Mazzarella October 4 at 12 noon in the Dome lobby .
Although winless in two preseason games against top-rated teams, the Palomar waterpolo squad is optimistic. " If we can play four solid quarters ," said assistant coach Bob Nelson , "there isn't a junior college in the state that we couldn't beat." Palomar faced two of Southern California's JC powers, Long Beach City College (LBCC), which placed third last year in Sou thern California , and the defending state junior college champio ns Golden West. The Comets played a strong first h a lf September 20 against LBCC, and led 6-3 after the first quarter. They tired in the second h a lfthough and were beaten 19-10. Pip White , from Orange Glen . led th e Comets with three goa ls. Retur· ning starter Kevin Sullivan scored two a long with freshman Bria n Fullerton from Escondido and Dan Ainsworth from Orange Glen . Todd Boyer, a lso returning fro m last year's squad had one goal. In their first pre-season game the Comets fe ll to the three-time state J C champs Golden West, 23-12. Again White led the Comets, who played without their full squad, with four goa ls. Th e ta nkmen will be h osting the San Diego Invitational tournament which will begin at 3 p.m. tomorrow .
