Customers will also find counters filled with "green thumb" bargains for gardeners, new and used clothing, toys, linens, kitchen wares, electrical appliances, furniture and lamps. A snack bar will be in operation, and there will be a sales booth featuring baked goods. Sale hours are 9 a. m to 5 p. m today and 9 a.m to I p.m. tomorrow.

Citing direct contradiction to the wishes of the Faculty Senate, Jack Quintero suddenly resigned Wednesday from all non-teaching positions held on the faculty body. The resignation came after an hour long battle on the direction of budgetary cuts for the fall and spring terms, 1969~ 70. His resignation followed the d-efeat of a move he had seconded to bring censure on the chairman of the budgetary committee, Frank Martinie, and committeemember Thomas Humphrey. Quintero was a member of the budgetary committee that is charged with drawing guidelines for spending next year. The committee has recommended cuts in several areas, but apparently

MORE IN THE MAKING
Heglands author text "Student Participant Manual" is the title of a recently released political science workbook authored by Edwina and Sheridan Hegland. The manual, published by Addison-Wesley of Boston, is designe d for lower division college government survey courses. The husband and wife writing team have written several books including "We The People" for eighthgrade civics students, and "The Open Door" concerned with library usage. Hegland, a political science and eco-
nomics teacher at Palomar, is currently using the books in his Political Science 10 classes. He has been granted a half-time contract at Palomar for next fall so that he may pursue his textbook career more energetically. "The manual attempts to strike new paths in the teaching of government," Hegland said. "Basically, we believe that if the questions are phrased correctly the 'answers' are forthcoming from students willing to be thoughtful."

ignored the wishes of the Senate in the area of raises in pay for faculty members according to Quintero. The committee was charged, according to Quintero, to secure "a 15 per cent raise in pay and a balanced budget." The budget has been slashed due to cutbacks in state aid. The proposals brought forth by the budgetary committee were passed on to the board of governors with the "disapproval and disavowal of the work done by this committee," according to the resolution that passed by one vote. At a special meeting of the Senate on Monday, the Senate had asked the committee to form recommendations providing for a 10 or possible 12 per cent raise in salary for faculty members. To provide the raises, the committee was charged with the task of cutting expenditures in other areas. One of the
BULLETIN Angelo Carli, English instructor, announced late yesterday that he is joining Jack Quintero by tendering his resignation to the Faculty Senate. "The Faculty Senate is an authoritative organization, in ·my eye," he explained to THE TELESCOPE. "In my judgement, it hasn't instituted any change. It is a recommending body, yet its recommendations are ignored by its own elected body. The time I would have wasted on the Senate will be spent preparing for my classes." His resignation was made known to Senate president Sheridan Hegland following Wednesday's special meeting, but was not made official until yesterday afternoon. It followed the defeat of a motion made by Carli to censure the members of the budgetary committee for failing to recommend 10 to 15 per cent raises as requested by the Senate. He said that he did not make a formal resignation Wednesday because he "did not want to impose on Mr. Quintero".
areas discussed and dismissed for cuts was the athletics department. It was suggested that Palomar not hire a new basketball coach. However, Quintero andtlu'eeother cosigners of a minority report felt that the cuts were not proper. "I kid you not," Quintero charged, "One of the proposals we discussed was the removal of the coffee pot from the Faculty dining room, as a proposed expenditure cut! It was defeated four to three. I expressed my undying gratitude to the committee for this." Martinie explained that to enact the raises would have forced crippling blows to several departments. Quintero attacked the cuts, sayingthat since the raises were not asked for in the committee recommendations, nothing new or different had been accomplished by the committee. Turning to Dr. John Schettler, assistant in change of business, he said, . "I apologize to Dr. Schettler. We took 300 hours to do what he could have accomplished in, what, in an afternoon?" Schettler sat motionless, continuing to stare out of a window. No mention was made to the committee of salary increases until two weeks ago, according to salary chairman Gene Jackson.
