Tally of underrepresentied students increases

4ILASS: Outreach efforts
credited; numbers don't
reach those before SP-1

By Neal Narahara

Daily Bruin Senior Staff

After much deliberation, admis-
sions officers sent out 10,703 open-
ended letters of invitation to high
school seniors saying that they were
UCLA's first choices. In late June, the
university got its answers, with 40 per-
cent of those students declaring that
the feeling was mutual.

The number of statements of intent
to register, which should almost exact-
ly match the enrollment for the fall,
shows a 10 percent increase in the
number of underrepresented students
over the number enrolled last year.

In addition, underrepresented stu-
dents - which includes Latina/os,
African Ameripans and American
Indians - will make up 17.2 percent of
the incoming class, up from 16 per-

cent. .

"The UCLA community has
worked extremely hard to recruit
admitted students to UCLA, and we
are delighted to see that a record pro-
portion of (underrepresented) stu-
dents has decided to enroll at the uni-
versity," said Chancellor Albert
Camesale in a statement. "Our contin-
ued goal, however, is to intensify our
outreach efforts so that more under-
represented students are prepared for
and admitted to the university."

Recent outreach efforts have
included partnerships with schools
and districts in Los Angeles as well as
tutoring and simply informing stu-
dents about eligibility requirements to
improve their chances of getting into
UCLA.

Of the 1,544 students admitted as
freshmen from underrepresented
minority groups, 723 have declared
their intention to attend UCLA in the
fall.

According to figures from the uni-
versity, statements of intent to register
from Latina/o students increased by

13 percent respectively this year, while
those for Native American students
increased by more than half.
Statements of intent by African
American students were the only ones
to fall from last year - down 5 percent
with a six student decrease.

Representing more than 40 percent
of the incoming freshman class, Asian
Americans will be the largest minority
group, followed by white students at
almost 33 percent.

Despite the increases over the previ-
ous two years, the numbers of under-
represented students who intend to
register still remain below those of
1997, the last year race could be used as
a factor in admissions.

"That's really sad and it's proof that
institutional inequality exists," said
Elias Enciso, the internal vice presi-
dent of the Undergraduate Students
Association Council and a member of
Praxis, a political slate which supports
the use of affirmative action.

"It sends out the message that

The Democratic National Convention will take place at the Staples Center in Los Angeles during
August 17- 20. The threat of mass protests has raised security concerns in Los Angeles.

Staples Center to host convention

POLITICS: Possible riots,
police reaction threaten
gathering of Democrats

By Benjamin Park*

Daily Bruin Contributor

Eighty-four hotels, 250 buses on
34 routes, an estimated 50,000
guests and $132 million* pumped
into the local economy - these are
just some of the elements of a
national political convention. -

The Democratic National
Convention will take place August
14-17 in the Staples Center in down-
town Los Angeles. *^^"'

The city last hosted the
Democratic Party's convention in
1960, whtn John F. Kennedy was
nominated for President.
Democrats hope they can repeat
such a successful launch of a presi-
d e ntia l camp ai gn from Lo s A nge l e s

this year, when Al Gore is officially
named the party's candidate.

"We believe that history's on our
side," said Lydia Camarillo, who is
chief executive officer of the con-
vention.

Camarillo said besides the nomi-
nations that will take place, those
who watch the event or participate
as volunteers will witness "democ-
racy at its best" as the party's plat-
form is discussed.

"The convention is going to be
very exciting, so you will want to
tune in or log on," said Camarillo.
"We are going to bfi discussing
issues important to everybot^ ^
including students."

Organizers may be hoping to
avoid the outcome of another 1960?
Democratic convention - that of
Chicago in 1968. Street protests
fueled by outrage over the Vietnam
War outside of that city's conven-
tion were quelled under the direo-
t io n o f l ege nda ry Chic a g o M a y o r

Richard Daley.

Commerce Secretary Bill Daley,
the son of the former Chicago
mayor, now heads Al Gore's presi-
dential campaign. Tom Hayden
was one of the famous "Chicago
Seven" who faced trial for inciting a
riot in the 1968 protests, and is now
a state senator who represents the
district that includes UCLA. He
has been vocal about what he sees
as a possible police overreaction to
the protests being planned for this
year's convention in Los Angeles.

Hayden criticized a SI million
state budget request for crowd con-
trol that included equipment, such
as pepper gas and gas launchers,
for the Los Angeles Police
Department. He said that the
request - which was eventually
rejected - was "hidden" within a
state budget proposal for the
California Highway Patrol, so that

De Neve Plaza expected to
be partially complete by fall

BUILDING: Delays have
led to increased costs for
construction of facilities

By Hasmik Badalian

Daily Bruin Contributor

On-campus housing students are
expected to have a chance to live in
the long-awaited De Neve Plaza this
fall. ■ '

Begun in October of 1997, housing
officials anticipate that parts of the
new residence hall will open after
several delays and increased expens-
es.

"i am optimistic that we will have
two of the four hv/using buildings
complete by fall quarter," said
Bradley Erickson, director pf
Campus Service Enterprises.

"However, I am only guardedly
optimistic that we will have all four
of the housing buildings complete by
the beginning of the school year," he
added.

The entire De Neve Plaza is
expected to house at least 1,200 stu-
dents upon completion. Two or three
people will be assigned to each room,
depending on the volume of students
who need housing, Erickson said.

Similar to rooms in Sunset
Village, De Neve Plaza rooms will
feature private bathrooms and air
conditioning, according to the
UCLA Housing Web site.

Certain rooms in De Neve Plaza
have already been assigned to stu-
dents for fall quarter, since housing
officials expect the rooms to be com-
pleted and approved by inspectors
by then.

Apart from the main housing
structures, the Podium, or Commons
building, which includes the dining
hall is slated to open early February
2001.

Because De Neve Plaza is located
right next to Dykstra Hall, residents
living there were inconvenienced by
the I'unsiruciion. As a result, special
mitigation .teams were formed to

help provide compensatory services
to Dykstra residents.

Over the past few years, Dykstra
residents received a free microfridge,
monthly snacks, quarterly special
dinners, monthly giveaways of movie
tickets, and other items in compensa-
tion.

Dykstra residents had to deal with
e^tra noise pollution and dust from
the construction site. The dining hall
and mailboxes were demolished
early in the construction phase to
make room for the Podium builcling,
forcing Dykstra residents to walk to
the other dining halls for meals and
to check for mail at the front desk.

Both housing officials and stu-
dents said they are happy that De
Neve Plaza will open soon.

"I'm glad that they are (almost)
done building a new housing com-
plex because there are so many stu-
dents who need a place to live," said
Randy Tashdjiarv a second-year biol-
ogy student and Dykstra resident.

"At first, the construction was
annoying, but throughout the year
you get used to it," .Tashdjian said.
"Plus, when you know it's for a
greater good, you don't let it bother
you that much."

The housing buildings were first
scheduled to be completed by fall
quarter 1999 and the Podium build-
ing by winter quarter 2000, but the
project experienced several setbacks.

"There were two principal reasons
why th« project was delayed,"
Erickson said.' "One is that the con-
struction documents turned out to be
much less than perfect, and that
resulted in the need for the architects
to go back and revise many aspects
of the plans.

"Secondly, the contractor has had
a lot of problems as they ended up fir-
ing one of their biggest subcontrac-
tors," Erickson added. "They also
had problems with lack ol* productiv-
ity and poor workmanship, which,
when discovered by our inspectors,
forced the contractor to re-work or

DRINKING: Administrators warn
of clangers in hopes of preventing
alcohol poisoning, emergencies

By Barbara Ortutay .

Daily Bruin Senior Staff

Drinking at UCLA is not much difTcrent
from other college campuses. In addition to
Thursday night fraternity parties, students find
places and occasions to drink and be merry in
Westwood bars, apartments and even in the resi-
dence halls.

"It's always around," said third-year theater
student Jason Liou of alcohol availability around
campus. " " ' V

Meanwhile, campus administrators and offi-
cials seek ways to curb underage drinking and to
prevent alcohol poisoning.

"Any college town you go to you'll have
underage drinking." said Peter Dell, manager of
UCLA^s Emergency Medical Services. "A lot of
the calls we get - 1 would say over half - are
underage drinkers."

EMS received 67 alcohol-related calls in the
past "year, according to Dell - 21 of these were in
the residence halls, 21 on city property, and the
rest in various places on campus.

For some students, college provides a new set

they can't answer these four simple questions, we
are obligated by law to take them to EMS."

Once in the emergency room, patients are
often put in bed to sober up, and an IV is com-
monly used tore-hydrate them. ^

If the alcohol poisoning is severe, patients
may have their stomach pumped. If they have
stopped breathing, a tube is placed down their
throat to aid breathinj^.

Fernando Guayasamin takes another shot on his way to eight drinks for the night.

of freedoms - including drinking.

"It's (students') first time away from home,
first time away from direct parental supervi-
sion," Dell said.

EMS receives calls for alcohol-related inci-
dents ranging from nausea and vomiting, which
is the most common, to people who are uncon-
scious.

Although not every drunk student will reach
that point, alcohol poisoning is a concern for
housing officials and university administrators.

Last year, Chancellor Albert Carnesale was
among 113 university presidents and chancellors
who signed on to a national advertising cam-
paign to curb binge drinking.

But the efforts to keep drinking students safe
do not end with the chancellor.

"We want students to make healthy and
responsible choices," said Amy Gershon, judi-
cial affairs coordinator for the Office of
Residential Life.

In the residence halls, students are allowed to

have alcohol "in the privacy of their own room,"
Gershon said

"As soon as it's visible from the outside, it's a
j^iolation of policy," she added. "Students can't
have the door open. They can't be walking down
the hallway with an open container."

On-Campus Housing policy also prohibits
residents from having "bulk alcohol," which can
range from a keg to a large bottle of vodka, and
if alcohol is present in a dorm room, no more
than two guests per resident can be present in the
room, Gershon said.

Both Dell and Gershon agreed that what con-
stitutes responsible drinking varies from one
individual to another. Dell said it depends on
family history, and a person's size, weight and
alcohol tolerance.

"Our definition of it would be not drinking to
the point of getting transported to ER or getting
sick in the bathroom," Gershon said.

After passing the threshold from responsible
xlrinking to getting sick, the next danger is alco-
hol poisoning.

Alcohol poisoning is a clinical term used by
physicians to refer to someone who has so much
alcohol in their system that it starts to affect their

major organs.

"It can shut down breathing and it can cause
severe liver damage," Dell said.

He urges students to call an ambulance if they
suspects someone may be a victim of alcohol
poisoning, even if they are in doubt about how
serious the condition is.

Contrary to popular belief, parents will not be
notified if a student is taken to the emergency
room for alcohol poisoning.

"If you are over 18, there is something called
patient confidentiality, and it's up to the patient
whether they want to disclose it or not," Dell
said.

Although this may assuage some students'
fears about calling an ambulance, there is still the
bill to pay.

"Insurance is another issue. Transportation
on an ambulance is not cheap," Dell said.

Once the ambulance arrives, four questions
are used to determine whether a person will be
transported to the emergency room.

"We use four basic questions to determine
level of consciousness: the person's name, where
they are, approximately what time it is and if they
know what happened to them," Dell said. "If

Incidents of alcohol poisoning constitute only
a fraction of students' experiences with alcohoL,
Many students choose to limit their consump-
tion or not to drink at all. — -- .v,-. ' ;.;•.•

The most recent survey available about alco-
hol use among UCLA students was conducted
by Student Health Services in 1995. One-third of
those who responded said they had engaged in
binge drinking within the two weeks prior to the
survey.

Binge drinking is commonly defined as C6h-
suming four or more drinks in a row for women,
and five or more for men. The study also found
that about 1/3 of students don't drink at all,
despite stereotypes about the prevalence of alco-
hol on university campuses.

Nationwide, an ongoing Harvard survey of
15,000 students at 140 college campuses found
that California college students drink and binge
drink less frequently than the rest of the nation.
This may be due to the fact that college students
in California are older, more likely to be married
an^ live off campus, the study found.

Nevertheless, UCLA students are often the
primary patrons of the bars around campus.

"Late Thursday, Friday and Saturday nights,
most of our patrons are college kids," said Laura
McLeod, manager of Westwood Brewing
Company.

To discourage underage drinking, Westwood
Brewing Company checks the IDs of anyone
entering the bar after 10 p.m. who looks under
30, McLeod said. Those without a valid ID are
not allowed in. During the day, bartenders and
servers card those who order alcohol if they look
under 30 as well.

"Our policy is no underage drinking."
McLeod said. *-

Nonetheless, drinking - whether legal or
underage - may be a quintessential part of the
college experience.

"It's a way for strangers to get to know each
other and to get together and have a common
bond," Liou said.

For most students, living away
adapt to a whole new dining

from home means having to
experience - nutritious or not

By Cameron Zargar

Daily Bruin Contributor

During their first days at UCLA, most
fi-eshmen, already feeling the pressure of
adjusting to a major academic institution,
also bear the discomfort of being away from
the familiarity of home cooking.

For Lisa Kingery, a fourth-year art history
student, this adjustment has meant a growth
in independence.

"You get away from home, all night
you're studying and eating pizza," Kingery
said, referring to her freshman year. "After
you pass the initial flip-out period, you real-
ize that you're the one who takes care of
yourself and that's what causes you to grow
up."

For a number of students, adapting to life
away from home is less about growing up
than about struggling to meet dietary reli-
gious standards.

Muslim students, who must only eat halal
food permissible in Islam, Jewish students,
who choose to keep kosher, and other stu-
dents with specific needs, often find few
choices in residence halls or in typical cam-
pus restaurants.

To accommodate their needs, these stu-
dents who would normally eat an average
amount of the specific meat and meat prod-
ucts , now rely more on vegetarian dishes.

Mohammad Mertaban, a second-year
math and applied science student as well as a
praaicing Muslim, said he felt the adjust-
ments he made while living in the residence
halls have improved his health, both physi-
cally and spiritually.

"It is beneficial to my health because i am
forced to refrain from meat," Mertaban said.
"I eat pasta, a lot of salad, breads and cere-
als" ..:■_ ■■...x, -.;-•. -vv -.r-v-.

Mertaban said he also felt the change has
helped him in building his character.

"The challenge has strengthened my
faith," he added.

According to Mertaban, UCLA should
cater to students who choose to follow their
religious teachings.

"I would like to see the proud institution
of UCLA make an effort to accommodate
students with religious guidelines like
myself," Mertaban said.

While the residence dining services may
not serve halal or kosher meat, the institu-
tion does pride itself on quality dining,
according to Charles Wilcots, Assistant
Director of Dining Services.

"There is a wide variety of various types
of dishes for everybody from sushi to mush-
room sandwiches," Wilcots said. "We want
to treat our restaurants as restaurants.

"UCLA has been recognized as one of the
top ten colleges in terms of dining services,"

he continued. ,

While students generally do find a great
variety of foods in the residence halls, some
students often grow tired of the repetitive fla-
vors of dorm food, according to Khoa
Nguyen, a third-year biology student.

Nguyen said that while, at first, he was
enticed by the great variety and buffet-like
atmosphere of the dorm cafeterias, the
amusement has worn off.

"The dorm food is good for the first two
weeks," he said. "Then after a while the
menu repeats itself."

Nguyen, though, has avoided various
food groups offered, choosing instead to rely
on a mostly-meat, minimal-vegetable diet.

"I eat a lot of meat, steak, mixing in fruit
and vegetables just a little," he said.

According to Nguyen, his own diet and
the observations he has made on other stu-
dents has indicated gender differences in eat-
ing habits.

"Girls eat much healthier - they're mostly
vegetarians," he said.

Fawnia Cantu, a third-year chemical engi-
neering student, also noticed that while
female students eat relatively light meals,
consisting of fruits and vegetables, male stu-
dents eat foods high in carbohydrates and
protein. a v

"Girls are so weight conscious. All they
eat is salad," she said. "Guys are packing on

the pounds with meat and bread."

Not all female students fit the stereotypes
associated with them. Brighid Dwyer, a
fourth-year sociology student, said that "a lot
of cookies and brownies" are a regular part
ofherdiet. ';

Regardless of eating preferences, the
most common type of grocery shopping for
students living in apartments consists of an
outing to Breadstiks, a small grocery store
located in Westwood.

Employees at the store have noticed that
numerous students pay little attention to
health guidelines, such as those suggested in
the food pyramid. ^ ■

Jonas Ball, a Breadsticjcs employee and
UCLA alumnus, said that students mostly
purchase spaghetti and boxed food, such as
Top Ramen and cereal.

Like the students. Ball said he too has
noticed a distinction between male students
and the female students.

"Girls buy fruit and the ready-pack sal-
ads," said Ball. "Guys buy a lot of eggs, cold
cuts and yogurt - you know, the high-protein
stuff."

According to Ball, women appear more
likely to adhere to nutritionists' advice than
men.

"(The men) probably don't have the

what clubs and organizations they
could join, and about what they can
do.

They come to stay away from
home and they usually don't come
with a lot of friends. And if they do,
they kind of know that they're going
to separate from them so they want to
know how to establish new connec-
tions.

So, a lot of them ask about frater-
nities and sororities as well as other
campus organizations. Basically, all
we can do is refer them to these vari-
ous organizations that they're inter-
ested in and they have to learn about
them by themselves. ~'-_ ~^ t" * ~

Q: What are students' reactions to
their first quarter at UCLA?

A: A lot of them actually think it's
easief than they expected college to
be.

However, that's because a lot of
Ttre — orientation — cuunsclois — arc-

trained to set them up to have a rela- own rooms.

tively easier course load than they
could have.

The classes could be easy, but at
the same time you're not just dealing
with classes - you're dealing with a
whole new social environment where
you have to meet new people and you
have to do a lot of things with your
new friends so you don't have as
much time to study. So, it's usually
better for them not to take a rigorous
course load their very first quarter.

That's why many students find
that their first quarter taking three
classes is kind of easy - especially
with English, math and chemistry.
But, as the year picks up, things are
going to get harder so they're cool
with it.

Q: What advice can you give to stu-
dents who are not used to sharing a
room? , -

A: Communication is the most
important part of living with other
people. When you first sit down, of
course meet your roommates first,
but also use a couple hours to sit
down and set down some basic rules.

A lot of the times they expect their
roommates to do their laundry, or
not leave stuff in their room, or not
bring people in when they're study-
ing, but ... a lot of the times, people
are not used to living with other peo-
pl c so they th in k uf i t as be i ng i fi tlie ii

So, they do a lot of things that their
roommates can't stand. So, you have
to sit down the first week or so and set
down basic rules like who's going to
take out the trash, if you're studying
what time you should go to sleep,
how many guests can you bring over,
if your boyfriend or girlfriend is com-
ing over can they stay over, and other
stuff like that.

■ t -

Q: What should students consider
when choosing a meal plan?

A: Consider the fact that, a lot of
times, you'll be going out to eat.
Dorm food is great and all, but after. a
while it might get boring and they
have to consider that sometimes
they'll be studying, on campus or
going out with their friends.

They have to consider the fact that
they won't be eating in the dorms all
the time, so getting the 19-meal plan -
unless you're planning to eat there ail
the time - a lot of the time you won't
use all your meals.

^o, consider the premiere meal
plan and know the fact that you can
get meal coupons so that your meals
won't.go to waste.

Q: What can students do to avoid
the freshman 15?

A: Eat right, sleep right. It's just a
myt t i. t li uugl i . T l ie f t wh t nan 1 3 d i d-

lot of weight my first year as did a lot
of my friends.

I don't think it happens to every-
one. It doesn't have to do with dorm
food - dorm food is actually pretty
healthy. I think it has to do more with
all the little snacks you eat; so just
control yourself and exercise.

Q: What can students do to improve
their study habits?

A: Study habits are always a prob-
lem.

There's no sound advice that I can
give them because it's up to them to
plan what their study habits are. ^

The only thing I can say is, the first
few weeks, the classes seem so easy
that they don't feel like studying and
they don't think they needi^o. But
when that midterm comes, they're
going to have to catch up a lot, and
that's when everything falls to pieces.

They need to keep up with their
readings and kind of take their stud-
ies seriously the first few weeks and
then adjust to it. If you think you're
studying a little bit too hard, then
^arty a little bit more I guess, but it's
always better to overstudy.

Q: What one thing would you have
wanted to know as an incoming stu-
dent?

A: I definitely would have liked lo

n't happen for me - I actually lost a get an idea of how fast the quarter Staff.

goes. This is a major problem that a
lot of people have. Even after two or
three quarters, people are still not
adjusted to the fact that the quarters
go so fast that by the first week you're
still trying to finalize your classes and
buy your books and stuff like that.

Second and third -week - a lot of
the times that's^when the midterms
are - so people need to be prepared
to be overwhelmed with a lot of work
even though it might be busy work or
just easy work it's still a lot of materi-
al to cover in 10 weeks.

I never really understood How fast
the system went, especially when it
came down to finals.

A lot of the times the professors
would cover a lot of material right
after the midterm and you have like a
week to cover the rest of the material
and then it's finals. *"-.

It would also have been nice to
know when I should have been study-
ing for what and how I should have
been studying. You can find this out
by just talking to your professors and
getting to know the system like what
he's planning to cover and what
exactly would be on the test.

Because a lot of professors will be
willing to help you learn about what's
going tQ be on the test in the future or
what yoi/ should be studying.

Health services available to students

PROGRAMS: Help ofTered
at centers for managing
stress, nutrition, illness

BylinhTat

Daily Bruin Senior Staff

At a lime when college sludenis are
jnaluring physically and menially,
Mdny fail to pay enough attehllolfTo
their health.

To help make students" lives easier,
organizations like the Arthur Ashe
Student HcaUli and WeMessXenter
and Student Psychological Services
provide physical and mental health
services to UCLA students so they
don'l suffer from inadequate nutri-
tion, sleep deprivation or other stress-
ful circumstances.

Students commonly visit the Ashe
Center seeking health information or
treatment for injuries, colds, the flu,
rash, acne or even to buy contracep-
tives, said Michele Pearson, director
of ancillary services at the center.

Students have the option of sched-
uling appointments, requesting pre-
scription refills and asking E-nurses
questions online by going to the cen-
ter's Web site.

"E-nurses is a way for UCLA stu-
dents to ask questions ... and to avoid
a face to face confrontation," Pearson
said, 'it's well liked and well used. It's
a good educational tool.

"We're looking not only to help
people but to inform them so they can
have peace of mind," she continued.

Though students may avoid a face
to face encounter by writing to E-nurs-
es, the service requires that students
provide their name and JD number to
verify that they are UCLA students.

In addition, the center provides

most services free since they receive
funding through student registra-
tion fees, Pearson said.

"We have the luxury of totally
gearing our services to the stu-
dents," Pearson said.

But, students must pay for immu-
nization shots, medication, HIV
4esljng and specialty clinics.

Featuring its own laboratory,
pharmacy and radiology unit, and
providing phystcat" therapy and ^
acupuncture, the center ranks
among the top 2 percent of health
services on college campuses
naliofiwldie, Pearson said.

While Ashe Center programs
address physical health issues, stu-
dents can seek help for emotional
stress from Student Psychological
Services. v

SPS offers individual and group
counseling, a clinic that teaches stu-
dents how to manage stress, and
consultation about problems with
roommates, parents or a loved one.
It is also the parent organization of
the Peer Helpline, a student volun-
teer crisis hotline that takes anony-
mous phone calls from students dur-
ing the evening.

Students most commonly seek
help from SPS to discuss relation-
ship and academic stress problems,
said SPS Director Hal Pruett.

SPS sees roughly seven percent of
the entire student body, according to
Pruett, who added that he is certain
more students need these services but
are not receiving them.

"Sometimes students may not
know (these services) are available,"
Pruett said.

He also said students don't always
seek counseling because they think
asking for help is a sign that they are
not in control of their own situations.

a stigma he hopes to help erase.

Students who seek help visit SPS an
average of four to six times to resolve
each situation, Pruett said.

Sometimes physical and emotional
stress seem to go hand in hand, with
one resulting from the other.

For example, the Ashe Center pro-
vides nutritional workshops to stu-
dents who are afraid of gaining
weight.

While some students opt for a diet.

With admission hurdles cleared,
it's time to get ready for the major
obstacle that stands between stu-
dents and their degrees: studying,
and lots of it.

UCLA students, in an effort to

lessen the blow of this collegiate
right of passage, leave no comer of
campus unturned in their quest for a
higher-learning hangout.

The trick, students tend to agree,
is to determine the atmosphere that

Backed by a turbulent history,
importing wateFintoX^

valley still creates waves of ccmtroyersy

By Michael Falcone

Dally Bruin Senior Staff

Early on weekday mornings,
someone walking around UCLA
might notice something peculiar:
grounds keepers with long pres-
surized hoses spraying water - not
onto plants, but on cement.

According to UCLA Facilities
Management Grounds

Supervisor Rich Ohara, watering
the grounds with power washers is
one of the most elTective ways to
keep dirt and dust down to a mini-
mum and it's also environmentally
sound. Unlike regular hoses,
which use 12 to 14 gallons of water
per minute, the power washers use
only two gallons and can clean five
limes the area, Ohara said.

"We try not to wash down very
often," he said. "'We do it mostly
for health and safety reasons. "

But Ohara recalled that during
the early 1990s, when California
was experiencing a major drought,
washing down sidewalks along
with any watering after 10 a.m.
was strictly forbidden.

The state's susceptibility to fre-
quent drought has shaped the atti-
tudes many Californians have
about water use. Everywhere
"conservation" is the operative
word, and Los Angeles is no
exception.

Peeling away the layers of glitz
and glamour - the Hollywood
movie studios and the Beverly
Hills mansions that personify Los
Angeles - leaves land that is essen-
tially an arid desert.

The green grass and palm trees
that line L.A. streets today are a
fairly recent addition - and their
growth is possible largely because
of the vision of one man.

Early in the 20th century, the
first superintendent of the newly
de-privatized L.A. water system,
William Mulholland, realized that
it was time to look for alternative
sources of water for the rapidly
growing city.

Though water conservation
was advocated by Mulholland and
others who saw how quickly the
city's population was increasing,
the residents of Los Angeles were

unresponsive. At the time, the
only source of water for the city's
inhabitants was the Los Angeles
river, and it was quickly being
depleted.

But more than 200 miles north-
east of the city in the expansive
Owens Valley, water was plentiful.
Runoff from the Sierra Nevada
Mountains supplied the Owens
River with a robust flow of water,
and that water made the valley an
4deal area for growing crops and
raising livestock.

Mulholland, along with former
L.A. Mayor Fred Eaton, decided
to tap the resources of the Owens
River and divert water to Los
Angeles via an aqueduct.

Through clever land acquisi-
tions, Eaton began buying up key
parcels of land in the San
Fernando Valley - land which the
city of Los Angeles would later
have to buy from Eaton and use
for the construction of the aque-
duct. ;^ ..-.-.,

Between 1908 and 1913, hun-
dreds of workers constructed the
233-mile aqueduct, which carries

aqueducts. The 233-mile Owens River Aqueduct was completed in 1913,and was

water from the Owens River
through the Mojave Desert to the
San Fernando reservoir. r ^ -
In November 1913, in front of a
crowd of tens of thousands of
Angelinos, the first few drops of

water poured out of the aqueduct
into the reservoir. According to
historical accounts, Mulholland
responded to the event by saying,

Construction is nearly completed at the De Neve construction site.
Two of the housing buildings of De Neve Plaza may open in the fall.

improve many areas." ; '

Problems with the plans signifi-
cantly affected the Podium building,
where many of the mechanical and
plumbing systems, specifically those
serving the dining area, did not fit
into the building that was initially
drawn.

"The architects were Torced to
redesign the building to increase its
height by about 18 inches to 2 feet to
provide room to put all the pipes and
ducts. This item alone resulted in
some significant delay," Erickson
said.

Further delays resulted when the
contractor fired the original framer
of the buildings. Erickson declined
to comment on the contraclof^iuia-
tion. -"^"'^ ^^

The original construction con-
tracts budget totaled approximately
$55 million, but the latest estimated
construction cost was set at $63 mil-
lion.

The delays and changes in con-
struction plans contributed to this
increase. The financial impact of the
delays have yet to be fully assessed,
but are expected to be significant due
to lost reveniie and increased debt.

"The increase in cost is a result of
the problems that the job has experi-
enced," Erickson said.

CONVENTION

From page 1

the LAPD could avoid publicity over
the purchase.

Concerns over convention security
have been amplified in the wake of the
rioting around the Staples Center that
erupted after the Lakers' N BA cham-
pionship victory. But in an opinion
piece, Hayden wrote that protesters
don't necessarily want to shut down
the convention. Lisa Fithian, of
Direct Action Network, agrees.

Her group, which took part in the
recent protests in Seattle and
Washington, DC, is now making
preparations for the convention in
Los Angeles, as well as the
Republican National Convention in
Philadelphia.

"We want to deliver a message that
wc want no more business as usual,"
said Fithian. She added that the pur-
pose of the demonstrations is to
"highlight critical issues locally and
globally."

Fithian said everyone she knows
has been encouraging non-violence
for the planned protests. She said that
what she was concerned about was
"state violence" - such as the use of
painful holds and pepper spray by
police, as well as preemptive strikes
against protest groups.

"I don't consider property destruc-
tion violent," said Fithian in rgsponse
to a hypothetical situation of smashed
storefront windows - one of the by-
products of the Seattle protests.
"That doesn't mean I consider it an
efTective tactic in terms of what our
goals are. I don't advocate it."

At UCLA, the Environmental

coalition, atnong other groups, has
sponsored meetings to plan for the

demonstrations in August.

Meanwhile, the Democrats are
calling for 10,000 volunteers - includ-
ing students - to work inside the walls
of the Staples Center. Melanie Ho, of
the Bruin Democrats, said that her
group recruited volunteers through e-
mail and from tables on Bruin Walk
during the past quarter.

"We've been in contact with the
Democratic National Convention
Committee and the Los Angeles host
committee and the Democratic head-
quarters in L.A., and they're all keep-
ing us aware of opportunities as they
come up," Ho said. Such volunteer
jobs include driving officials around,
helping at fund raising events, and
doing tasks at the convention itself

Though not technically a protest, a
homeless convention will be held in a
nearby area of transitional shelters.
Also joining in the demonstrations
may be some union locals. Even the
police union, the Los Angeles Police
Protective League, has applied for a
demonstration permit, saying that
they feel left out of negotiations with
the federal government over police
department reforms.

In addition to protesting, there
should be plenty of celebrating. On
top of the events in the Staples
Center, there will be private parties at
various locations in the city.

Such parties have come under crit-
icism for the corporate sponsorship
that is often lined up to pull them ofT.
One party will be held in a location
not too far from UCLA - the Playboy
Mansion in nearby Holmby Hills.

Rep. Loretta Sanchez (D-Garden
Grove) is organizing a party at Hugh
Hefner's mansion for Hispanic Unity

Pam Viele, director of Student Health
Education, said students need to be
careful about how they lose weight. .

"Especially in L.A., there's so
much emphasis oh body image and so
much pressure to conform to an ideal
body type," Viele said. "There are
many different bodies and shapes that
are healthy and beautiful."

Viele said students may jeopardize
their health if they lack proper nutri-
tion. ■■■ ■ '■ ■■■■■■ - ■■ '. . -

"Many students haven't fmished
growing," Viele said. "A lot of young
women and young men have not
reached their full weight, so gaining
weight is not a bad thing at all.** '

Students (should)
exercise regularly to
help relieve tension .

"It's not good to think of food as
good food and bad food. It's impor-
tant to get a well-balanced variety of
food," she continued.

Besides diets, specialists at the cen-
ter work with students to prevent
sleep deprivation, a problem many
students face.

"It has been estimated that more
than half of all college students are
sleep deprived," said Jo Ann
Dawson, director of primary care.
"Many try to get by on three to five
hours of sleep."

"For any adult body, sleep experts
generally recommend iseven to eight
hours and up to 12 hours a day," she
continued.

Dawson said she recommends stu-
dents take short naps or even close
their eyes if they don't sleep as a way
to rest their bodies and mind.

Common symptoms of a person
who is sleep deprived include pain
and respiratory cold conditions.

"Some come in complaining they
couldn't remember anything,"
Dawson said of students who visited
the center during finals week.

To stay awake.some students turn
to various stimulants such as coffee or
caffeine pills, Dawson said.

"Those agent* may give a person a
sense that they are more alert," she
said. "But they may end up feeling a
contradictory sense of feeling tired, of
wanting to sleep and being unable
to."

Dawson said such stimulants may
increase a person's heart rate and
leave them nervous or jittery.

"The only cure for sleep depriva-
tion is really to get some sleep," she
said.

She added that students should
stop working about 30 minutes before
going to bed so they can unwind and
rest their mind. She also suggested
students exercise regularly to help
relieve tension and give them better
sleep.

The Ashe Center offers additional
services to students living on campus
through the Student Health Advocate
program, which trains student volun-
teers in residence halls to provide
basic medical information or aid.

"We're taking services to where
students live and learn," she said,
adding that some students prefer
going to a SHA because they feel their
peers can better identify with them in
many cases.

To prevent illness in residence
halls, students should take added
measures to maintain good personal
hygiene, Viele said.

"In any living situation where a lot
of people are living in close proximity,
the most common thing to prevent an
infection is handwadiing," she said.
"Be careful of sharing utensils and
cups. It would be a good idea to wear
(slippers) to the bathroom and show-
ers area to prevent tnuiimiuion of

infection."

. Viele said students should mini-
mize stress by exercising, meditating
or participating in some relaxation
activity.

"Learning time management skills
to allow the person to maintain some
sort of social balance, maintaining
relationships and developing a strong
social support is important," Viele
said.

tion of which Sanchez is the chair.
Her spokeswoman, Sarah Anderson,
confirmed that the party will take
place on August 15th. She would not
release the names of its sponsors.

"I'm going to keep that under my
hat, too," said Sanchez, when also
asked who would be in attendance at
the party. She added that the event is
"still in the planning stages."

There have already been some sig-
nificant developments for Los
Angeles in association with conven-
tion planning. "Roy Romer, the for-
mer Colorado governor who was ini-
tially chairman of the convention
committee, was recently selected to
be the new superintendent of the
troubled Los Angeles Unified School
District. .

The city's host committee.
L A2000, is trying to meet its commit-
ment to raise $35 million for the con-
vention. Mayor Richard Riordan
and Democratic party officials had
promised that no public funds would
be needed for the undertaking, but
the host committee recently asked the
city council for $4 million to cover
fund-raising shortfalls.

Organizers are interested in show-
casing the city at its best. Whether the
Democratic National Convention in
Los Angeles this August ends up
looking more like the one the city
held in 1960 - or the one Chicago
held in 1968 - remains to be seen.

sona and to avoid those places that
will tempt them to turn "study hour"
into "social hour." .

Ardy Kassakhian, a fifth-year
political science student, said he
found studying with others initially
tended to encourage procrastination
no matter where the group decided to
study.

"My first two years at UCLA,
studying with friends meant sleeping
in the library or goofing around,"
Kassakhian said. "That would basi-
cally last until > c got hungry and left
to go eat or play some pool."

When students eventually think
seriously about their grades, they real-
ize that UCLA offers a variety of
indoor and outdoor settings that can
enrich their social experience without
hampering the health of their GPA.

Like many students, fourth-year
psychology student Myoshi Hirano
said she finds Kerckhoff Coffeehouse
allows her to'put in hours for studying
without feeling anti-social.

"I enjoy studying in Kerckhoff and
the other coffee houses on campus,"
she said. "There's enough going on so
that I don't feel like I'm missing out
on life even though I'm buried in my
books." ^ ^ '

Hirano said that she enjoys stop-
ping by any of UCLA's coffee hous-
es, including Northern Lights on the
north-end of campus, and Jimmy's on
the northeast end near the Law
School, as a way to jump-start one of
her all-nighter study sessions.

"Even if I decide to go home and
study, the coffee houses are conve-
nient places to pick-up good coiffee,"
she said.

Hirano added that various restau-
rants, like Cafe Roma at the
Anderson School and The Bomb
Shelter near the Medical School, are
great places to grab a bite to eat in-
between classes.

"All the food I need is right there,
so I 'm less~ likely to get distracted
from studying when I get hungry,"
Hirano said.^ I

Those who firtd four walls and a
roof too stifling can take advantage of
the university's wealth of natural sur-
roundings. Loaded with trees, mani-
cured green lawns and spread
throughout the campus, these settings
allow students to "tan and scan" while
simultaneously absorbing

Shakespeare, Aristotle, or atmos-
pheric science.

"There's something about the
squirrels in the sculpture garden that
creates a serene environment perfect
for concentrating on your studies,"
psychology graduate student Artin
Rebakale said.

Rcbakale explained that he found
out about the Franklin D. Murphy
Sculpture Garden early in his college
career because of his desire to take
advantage of Southern California's
usually mild and sunny climate.

"How can you go to school in L.A.
and spend most of your time^
indoors?" Rebakale asked.

The majority of UCLA students,
however, prefer the more traditional
atmosphere of a library to study. With
17 such buildings sprinkled about the
campus, students cun find plenty of
study space in an environment
designed specifically for that pur-
pose.

"Hie place on campus that 1 prefer
to study most is the Young Research
Library," Kassakhian said. "Any desk
you pick is relatively secluded from
everyone else."

Peiiiaps signaling a trend that
finds serious students gravitating to
those parts of campus meant for grad-
uate students, Rebakale said that the
Law School is a good place to spend
nights studying when sleeping is not
an option.

"If it*s necessary, nothing beats an
all nighter in the law lounge,"
Rebakale said.

whole diet plan down while the giris
seem to have a better idea of the con-
cept of a balanced meal plan," he
said.

Christine Hill, a fourth-year
English student, theorized as to why
the female students at UCLA eat
healthier than their male counter-
parts.

Hill said that cooking together
with her roommates at home instead
of going to restaurants has con-
tributed to her eating healthier food.

"I coordinate what I eat with what
my roommate^ eat," Hill said. "We
cook together. X—- -—^-- — --^

"In the apartments, socially, girls
eat together more," she continued.
"Guys may tend toward the quick
meal - fast food, or those frozen
things," she continued. ^"~'
; As in the apartments, eating
together seems to provide a sense of
community for those students in fra-
ternities and sororities as well.

While these institutions can often
provide a feeling of kinship away
from home, the food students choose
to eat does not necessarily resemble
home cooking, according to Aaron
Kessler, who graduated this summer
with a major in business economics.

"I eat mostly sandwiches, turkey,
peanut butter," Kessler, who lived in
a fraternity house, said. "We cook for
ourselves." X '

Like other -students, Kessler's eat-
ing habits have changed from home,
but Ihey still adhere to nutritional
standards of some sort

"1 try to stay away from fast food
and foods high in carbs," Kessler
said. .

STUDY

From page 14 ;

Ironically, the College Library,
UCLA's oldest library, housed in one
of the school's original four buildings,
has the reputation of being one of the
worst places to study because of the
socializing that occurs there.

"If I was going to the library to get
some phone numbers, then 1 would
go to Powell," Kassakhian said.

. Hirano also said that she prefers to
avoid the College Library.

"Even in 'Night Powell' - that part
of the library that remains open night-
ly until 2 a.m. - there's so much whis-
pering going on," Hirano said. "Its
easier to deal with loud music than it
is with that." ^

In addition to these on-campus
sites, Westwood Village also offers a
number of comfortable study spots.

"I like studying at Denny's,"
Kassakhian said. "The coffee is sub
par, but I'm pretty much left alone
around the clock as long as I buy a
side of onion rings."

Denny's Diner restaurant manag-
er Roxanna Alamiri confirmed
Kassakhian's experience.

"I definitely don't mind that they
study here," Alamiri said. "If you
come in and don't order, then that's a
problem. .-.■:- _ ;■. ; _._._

"But as long as you or^' some-
thing, even just a side dish, then
you're welcome to stay as long as you
like," she continued.

The Coffee Bean & Tea Leaf, with
two locations in the Westwood, could
also accommodate students.

"It used to bother us," manager
Jim Nath said. "But at this time, we
don't have a policy on time limit.

"Students are welcome to stay here
as long as they like," Nath added.

Regardless of the location, there
are still some students who want to
study with a friend or two. Those that
do said that this strategy is risky if not
employed properly.

"My word of advice to any incom-
ing freshman is not to' study with
friends unless your friends know
more than you do and arc serious

WATER

From page 6

"There it is, take It."

It was advice that the residents of
Los Angeles followed without reserr
vation even as the once lush Owens
Valley began to dry up.

Farmers and ranchers who used to
thrive in the Owens Valley watched
helplessly as water was systematically
diverted from their land to the bur--

geoning metropolis. Up against the
political and economic power of Los
Angeles, residents of the valley decid-
ed to reclaim their wat^ rights by

force. They repeatedly^tried to take^^

control of the aqueduct gates and
dynamite the pipeline.

But in 1927, in an attempt to pro-
tect his engineering masterpiece,
Mulholland led a well-armed force of
L.A. police officers into the valley
and was largely successful in quelling
the insurgent residents there.

In 1928, the St. Francis Dam - an
integral part of the aqueduct system
built two years earlier - ruptured, and
sent a 120-foot wall of water careen-
ing toward the Pacific Ocean, deci-
mating all of the natural resources in
its path, and killing nearly 500 peo-
ple. Mulholland's reputation was
ruined and he was devastated. He
accepted total responsibility for the
disaster. ' -

Years later, tests confirmed that
geologic instability actually caused
the dam break, pot an error by
Mulholland.

Though the history of Los
Angeles' water system is now best
known from its silver screen incarna-
tion in the 1974 movie "Chinatown,"
starring Jack Nicholson and Faye
Dunaway, Mulholland's legacy has
left a permanent mark on Los
Angeles, the Owens Valley and Mono
Lake, which has been partially
drained since the L.A. aqueduct was
extended to tap its water.

The aqueduct extension was com-
pleted in 1941 and diverted water
from the streams that feed Mono
Lake, which is about 70 miles north
of the Owens Valley. As a result, the
lake level fell nearly 50 vertical feet,
threatening the local ecosystem.

In 1976, a group of student envi-
ronmentalists led by David Gaines
recognized the problem and formed
the Mono Lake Committee to try to
restore the lake to its original level
and ecological conditions. Years of
lobbying by the committee, which
now has offices at both ends of the
aqueduct, prompted Sacramento
lawmakers to pass regulatory legisla-
tion to protect Mono Lake.

Mono Lake Committee education
director Bartshe Miller said that the
lake level, which is still more than 30
feet lower than it was in 1941, will
never return to its previous height.
But many side effects of the watei
diversion, like increased lake salinity
and the elimination of bird habitats,
have been significantly ameliorated.

Miller also said that with less water
being diverted from the Mono Basin,
lake levels will continue to rise and
the ecosystem will improve.

"Currently the diversions are 15-
20 percent of what they used to be,"
Miller said. "And water recycling will
directly benefit Mono Lake."

The Mono Lake Committee was
the lead organization which asked the
L.A. Department of Water and
Power to investigate new water recy-
cling projects aimed at decreasing the
city's dependence on lake water. -

L.A. city leaders are currently
debating a proposal to convert sewage
water to drinking water. The East
Valley water project, an L.A. DWP
reclamation plan, is ready to begin this
summer, but the treated waste water
would not enter the drinking water
supply for another five years.

Though the plan has been in the
works for five years, several promt- '
neni LA. politicians, including City
Councilman Joel Wachs (2nd dis-

Sc«lllim,^aft17

WATER

From page 16

trict) and State Senator Richard
Alarcon (D-San Fernando Valley)
are beginning to question the project.
Both are calling for more informa-
tion about the possible health risks of
drinking treated sewage water.

Ohara said UCLA has been trying
to bring in reclaimed water for the
past seven years, but has been unable
due to the high costs involved. He
^emphasized that reclaimed water
would be just as safe as what comes
out of the taps now and said its use is
not new to other parts of the country.

^People don't realize that the
water you get in Louisiana has gone
through five people by the time you
drink it," Ohara said.

The link between Los Angeles, its
people and its water supply has been
strong since the first drops trickled
into the city from sources in the
North, and as the city's growth con-
tinues, the debate about its water is
likely to continue.

Miller and others at the Mono Lake
Committee who are still dealing with
the effects of the decisions made by
L.A. city planners'early in the 20th cen-
tury said that the water recycling pro-
posals show that the city is attempting
to balance the needs of its residents
with the needs of the environment.

"Water has a public trust value in
the environment for scenic and eco-
logical purposes, not just for drinking
purposes," Miller said.

FRESHMEN

From page 1

UCLA doesn't want people of color,"
he added.

In 1995, the UC Board of Regents
passed SP-I, a proposal to eliminate
race and gender in admissions - the
move was later reinforced by
California voters with the passage of
Proposition 209, which ended the use
of affirmative action throughout pub-
lic institutions in the state.

When the restrictions went into
effect with the freshman class of 1998,
the number of admitted underrepre-
sented minority students dropped off
by nearly 30 percent at UCLA.

Since the passage of SP-1, maintain-
ing diversity has become an increas-
ingly important issue. The university
has placed increased funding into out-
reach programs in an attempt to
improve the quality of California's K-
12 education and in turn, attract
underrepresented minority students
to the university by improving their eli-
gibility. ' .

The average SAT score for students
planning to enroll is 1277, up two
points over last year, and the average
GPA is 4.05, down from 4.13 last fall.

Incoming freshmen have taken an
average of 14.7 honors and advanced
placement courses, down from 15.9.

System-wide, 29,000 students
including 4,730 from underrepresent-
ed groups have chosen to attend a UC
school out of over 50,000 applicants.

While the number of underrepre-
sented minority students is greater
than in 1997, they still represent a
smaller percentage of incoming fresh-
men due to higher enrollment num-
bers.

"There were slight increases across
the board, but nothing glaring," said
Terry Lightfoot, a spokesman for the
UC.

According to Lightfoot, there are
no predetermined goals for the per-
centage of admitted students the UC
hopes will register in the fall, but he
said he is positive about the increase in
diversity over last year.

"We hope it will continue in the
future," Lightfoot said. "Wc think it
does represent an improvement and
hope to see the trend continue over the
years." .

College isn't just about beer; there's Trojan-bashing too

Welcome, new Bruins, to UCLA, the
place where stuff happens. Yes, now
you too can become an exciting part of
this place and its stuff. Now
slop saying "hella" and
let's get on with it.

You will note that in a
campus of 35,000 stu-
dents, the days of high
school cliques are over and
done with. It's time to stop
wearing that varsity jacket
and using phrases like,
"Dude, I could so kick that
guy's ass," as they no
longer carry the weight
with the ladies that they
used to. This is college, so
it's time to grow up to an entirely new level of
immaturity.

This is my mission: to help you transition
smoothly into your new social life. Being a Daily

Uef is a third-year psychology and English
student who hasn't seen It all, but has gpt most of
the good stuff on videotape. Contact him at
dlief@ucla.edu.

Bruin columnist, I don't happen to have a life
myself, but I've read quite a few books on the
subject, and I think my theories may shed a little
light on just what goes on at this campus.

By now you're probably wondering, "When
is he gonna start talking about the beer?" or, "1
want some beer!" or possibly, "Beer good! Fire
bad!" Do not fret, man petit chou (French for
"My little cabbage" - I'm not kidding). Here at
college the ages of 17, 18, 19, and 20 are mere
formalities, little stumbling blocks on your way
to total plasteredness and bastardness.

Because this is your first experience with col-
lege, you are apt to act like kids in a candy store.
Of course this isn't so much a candy store as it is
Uncle Jack Daniels' Carnival of Shame. Yes,
you and your fellow freshmen will make orienta-
tion a social-ladder-climbing experience like
those you remember from high school, where
whoever needs a liver transplant first wins. Then
you will come to a realization, an enlightenment
- what the French call a fontbleauuux (okay, so I
don't really know that much French). After that
fontbleauuux, you'll probably opt to climb a dif-
ferent ladder.

Many of our greatest thinkers have come to
enlightenment this way, and even more of our
worst thinkers have wound up there. I'm not

here to tell you not to drink, as my stomach has
certainly met its share of chemicals, but I will tell
you this much: make it a guide to having other
fun, don't make the drinking itself the fun.
Chicks don't dig vomit, and guys don't like hav-
ing to help a girl fight gravity.

I think the great Romantic poet John Keats
said it best in his "Ode on a Grecian Pledge":
With excess brewskies and the smoken weed.
Thou, piece of arse, dost tease us out of pants, I
wore Eternity: Cool Water! When hangovers
shall leave an aftertaste, thou shalt remain in
midst of other hoes than ours, "Just friends"
with man, to whom dudes sayst, "Booty is truth,
truth booty," - that is all I know on earth, 'cause
I just drank the coolant out of my car, dude.

That being said, eat, drink and be merry.
Girls, beware the booze at the frat party. You
will find there are two kinds of girls at UCLA:
frat hoes, and non-fral hoes. Frat houses can be
a dangerous place. If those walls could talk,
they'd have to testify. But if you do choose to go,
here is a short list of things you should never say
at a frat party:

1. I'm a freshman (you don't have to say it,
believe me, they'll know).

2. 1 can drink you under the table (this ain't
like " Raiders of the Lost Ark ").

3. Oh my God, you guys! No, seriously! (indi-
cates you are dumb and therefore more vulnera-
ble)

4. 1 alway»get naked when 1 get drunk (you
know who you are). - " Ij. ^ . : '^ " "'T:

Girls, do be careful when swimming in the "*''.:
shark tank. At orientation they will show you an
informative back-to-school special that warns,
"You are going to get date-raped! It's only a
matter of time!" except with the optimism and
pep of a young Tracey Gold. In addition to these
programs, BearWear chastity belts are available
for purchase in Ackerman in a variety of colors.
The system contains a lock that is far too com-
plicated for any drunk to undo, much like the
hooks on your bra. '

But Bruin social life isn't all seedy backrooms
and miscellaneous chemicals. There's plenty of
good, clean fun to be had around here, like foot-
ball games (tailgate parties), theater (cast par-
ties), and Hillel (all the Manischewitz you can
handle. L'chaim!).

For those of you who are more politically
active, there should be plenty of rallies and
protests to keep you occupied. We have a long
tradition here at UCLA of staging demonstra-

VIEWPOINT: Expressing

People often tell me that life is an

should not forget that college is a
perfect time to
accelerate that
process of learn-
ing.

can contribute just as much, if not
more, to your world views. The rallies
you attend, the speakers you listen to,
the student groups you approach, the
events you witness, and the articles
you read in the Daily Bruin all expose
you to a diversity of ideas you may not
otherwise get from a lecture where a
professor blandly spits out facts. Too
many limes, professors act as if stu-
dents are faceless sponges, soaking up
information and then squeezing out
the facts during test time. It happens
too often that the courses we take end
up as a standardized exercise for how

-Viewpoint scaiun-wftfiTDaTly brum.
As one of the newspaper's integral sec-
tions, Viewpoint aims to expose read-
ers to a diversity of opinions from stu-
dents, faculty, and other members of
the UCLA and the local communities.
Unlike most classes where students

cussion, the Viewpoint section allows
arguments lo flow back and forth ~~
between students.

All of US feel Strongly

about certain issues ...

Silence will get you

nowhere.

This dialogical process makes it
possible foi- students to examine more

than one side of a particular topic. [

Moreover, the section becomes an
open forum where students can
engage in meaningful, passionate,
angry, funny, and sarcastic debate. ~~:

It is important to understand that
we all have our opinions. All of us feel
.strongly abput certain issues.
Viewpoint allows you the opportunity
lo share your thoughts with the com-
munity at large. By doing so, it al«o-

your ability to argue forcefully and

exchanging ideas that makes UCLA
such a great place for learning.

Another great aspect of the
Viewpoint section is that it allows for
discussion on a myriad of topics. It is
more than just a page where people
can entrench themselves in serious
political debate. It also allows for com-
edy, satire and discussion of social life
and issues that directly affect students.

With that, I encourage each and
every one of you to submit your opin-
ions lo Viewpoint, either in the form
of submissions or by applying to be a
columnist. Silence will get you
nowhere,. . _ •

Speaking out is one of the most
elTective ways lo communicate your
ideas lo a mass audience. It remains
one of the only ways thai you can '
reach out to students and have them

conversation with one another, stu-
dents have the opportunity to think
more critically about their views and
reexamine the faults in their own argu-
mcnis. And trust mc, a really well wrli-

Finally, let me just say that no per-
son on this campus lives on an island.
We are social beings who communi-
cate with each other. The policies and
events that affect one student are
bound to have an impact on many oth-
ers. Unlike many other students in this
country, we are attending a top-rate
university that offers many opportuni-
ties for leadership and experience. As
part of this elite institution, we have
the privilege to debate and discuss
issues and policies that will greatly
affect our families in the future.

The Viewpoint section of the Daily
Bruin challenges you to speak your
mind and introduce your views to
other students. We respect and print
articles from all sides. I also encourage
you to apply as columnists at the end^_
of every quarter. In addition lo being —
able to write your OWN column every
other week, you'll also gain the status
of celebrity as your picture appears
with your column on every copy of the
paper. We are in the process of gaining

logue can the process of learning truly

Two years ago, the summer
before my first year at UCLA, I
had a million different thoughts
and emotions running amok inside my
head. I felt ner-
vous, inspired,
ambitious, hope-
ful, worried,
happy and sure
about only one
thing: my undy-
ing hatred for

use.

Since that
chaotic time, I
have come to
realize that this

campus is an

amazing place

where you can step outside yourself
and grow, change and learn. But it is
not always an easy process: my first
two quarters at UCLA, I was oHen
torn among feelings of enthusiastic
excitement and feelings of loneliness,
displacement, and a nagging fear that
I would never figure out what I was
supposed to be doing in college. It
wasn't until after I became involved
that I realized my feelings were nor-

mal. More importantly, my involve-
ment helped convince me that I had a
real purpose here on this campus.
Of course, going to parties and
football games helped too. Meeting
friends in the dorms and in classes,
taking courses that would never have
been offered in high school, and trying
to figure out my major occupied a
great deal of my time during my first
months here. There were days when I
felt like the only person that had not
yet declared a major, the only student
struggling to find Hershey Hall, and
the only girl without a date for
Saturday night.

I am going to try to

nnake life easier for you

and reveal the secrets of

involvement at UCLA.

In spite of all these feelings, or per-
haps because of them, I decided to
really get involved in the spring of my
freshman year. That decision has been
the single most infiuential factor in my
college career and has helped me to
realize that I was never alone on this

campus. As you prepare to enter this
university, I am here asking you to
make the same decision, for your own
sake.

But UCLA is full of paradoxes. On
the one hand, it is an enormous upiver-
sily, with over 30,000 students, 500
student clubs and organizations,
countless majors, and a million differ-
ent op|:>ortunities for involvement. Yet
somehow, when you look for a place
to start your UCLA career, it seems as
if there is nothing for you to do and .
nowhere to go for guidance.

As someone who has felt all of these
things, I am going to try to make life
easier for you and reveal the secrets of
involvement at UCLA. First of all,
start listening. In your time here at this
university, listening to the students
around you will be your greatest tool,
teaching you more than you could
ever learn by taking a test or reading a
textbook. Students here are motivated,
outspoken and dedicated, and by lis-
tening to your peers you m\\ begin to
understand some of the most pressing
issues on our campus.

Secondly, look around you with a
critical eye. What do 1 mean? Here's
an assignment: as you sit in your orien-
tation sessions, look around and ask
yourselves how many underrepresent-

Voice for change at L.A. convention

DEMOCRATIC: Issues are

hampered by agendas of
party, problems ignored

By Kevin Rudiger

This summer, history will be
jnade in the streets of Los Angeles
and Philadelphia. Thousands will
converge at both the Republican
and Democratic National
Conventions to protest both par-
lies' continued pursuit of corpo-
rate-dictated, racist agendas. These
agendas serve the interests of the
elite while the vast majority of peo-
ple, both at home and abroad, are
left impoverished and under the
gun.

Political conventions continue
to be nothing more than high-
priced commercials for the two
corporate-dominated parties. The
vast majority of Americans who
can't aflord access to the $10,000-
a-plate dinners and other high-
priced events are left outside the
process. This year, though, we will
be in the streets.

Late last year in the ground-
breaking Seattle protests against

demand an end to unaccountable,
faceless cofpofationsrand instit
lions, the erosion of our democra-
cy, and increasing inequality on a
national and international level.
Those of us in the streets were
treated to extraordinary displays of
solidarity, including the now leg-
endary "Teamster-Turtle" alliance
of labor unions and environmental-
ists. We also saw that when people
do take to the streets, things can
and do change. , ... , , ..^

The convention will be

a chance to showcase

only one side of LA

Not only did the WTO meetings
collapse in disarray, but President
Clinton begrudgingly insisted that
he "agreed with many of the con-
cerns" raised by those in the streets
and called for provisions that take
environmental, labor and human
rights issues into account. Now,
this extraordinary and growing
movement has an opportunity to
bring this winning combination to
Los Angeles.

The corporate politicos who are
organizing the convention have
talked about using the convention
as an opportunity to "showcase
Los Angeles." The truth is, of
course, that they will only be show-
ing one side of our city.

While convention delegates
hobnob in the Staples Center sky-

boxes, it will be easy for them to
forget that one-third of children inr^
L.A. County live below the poverty
line, or that 45 percent of full-time
workers in the city still have no
health insurance. While conven-
tion-goers stay in swank hotels
downtown and on the West Side,
they can easily ignore the shameful
disparities of wealth in Los
Angeles, where 50 people control
as much wealth as the poorest 2
million Angelenos.

This is the real Los Angeles, a
city created largely by an ongoing
attack on the poor, lack of afford-
able housing and a separate and
unequal education system in com-
munities of color. One goal of the
protests this August will be to
ensure that this side of Los Angeles
cannot be ignored and that both
the Democrats and Republicans
realize that communities which
have been marginalized in the past
refuse to remain so today.

It is important to realize that
this side of Los Angeles, which
both parties want to pretend does
not exist, is the direct result of the
outright failure of both the
Democrats and Republicans to
address key issues which impact us
all. Under the supposedly progres-
sive leadership of President
Clinton, Congress passed sweeping
"welfare reform" legislation, which
has moved thousands of needy
families off welfare rolls, without
providing them any real opportuni-
ties to support themselves. At the
same time. Democrats have once

mindset when they act as if their
actions don't affect anything. It's not
true. Individuals make significant
impacts on their surroundings, and
UCLA students have an even greater
potential to do so.

I say this as much for myself as for
any reader. All too frequently in col-
lege my life has felt useless, and
apparently there are other students
who feel the same way about them-
selves.

I hear students continually asking
the question, "How can I make a dif-
ference?" And it's usually not
because they want something to do.
More frequently, the question is a
rhetorical way of saying "I don't
count for anything, leave me alone."

I heard it last spring, when stu-
dents talked to campaign representa-
tives during elections for the
Undergraduate Students

Association Council. I've heard it
screamed by students fleeing
CALPIRG representatives. I heard
it during the March primaries. I've
heard it during religious debates.

There seems to be a prevailing
attitude at UCLA - activism is for
liberal newspapers and student gov-
ernments. Students should sit down,

Elonai is fifth-year English student

shut up, and do their homework.
Don't argue for anything that's divi-
sive. Let other people manage their
business, because even if they are suf-
fering, your effort does relatively lit-
tle for them. Party as much as you
can and remember to wear surF
screen.

~ Ladies and gentvl'd4ike to stig-
gest that this attitude is social cancer.
We believe we're worthless, so we
give up -on working toward our
ideals. If we don't get to our ideals,
we believe we're worthless even
more. It's like the alcoholic in "The
Little Prince" who drank because he
was ashamed of his alcoholism.

There are plenty of people like
that alcoholic wandering around
campus, satisfied with a drink or
maybe getting laid. But for those of
you who need more to be satisfied,
there are easy ways to have a positive
impact on our universal surround-
ings. Here are a few:

From page 20 :

again made no effort to move toward
a more progressive taxation system
and have continued to endlessly
debate over even the smallest of mini-
mum wage increases.

Bill Clinton and his Democratic
friends in Congress have also vastly
accelerated the war on the poor,
youth and communities of color, by*
enacting increasingly punitive crimi-
nal legislation, increasing funding for
the failed "war on drugs" and passing
numerous pieces of anti-immigrant
legislation. While violent crime has
decreased for the last several years,
the number of people in prison con-
tinues to skyrocket as politicians
jockey to see who can be toughest on
crime. '■•■, ■

On an international level, our
Democratic "leadership" has been
equally dismal. Whether we are talk-
ing about the Clinton administra-
tion's aggressive campaign to fund
military offensives in Colombia or
the administration's continued sup-
port for a war, both military and eco-
nomic, against the people of Iraq, the
Clinton administration has shown its
true colors. When I asked an aide to
Bill Bradley, who supposedly repre-
sents the left wing of the Democratic
Party, how many Iraqi children they
were willing to sacrifice in pursuit of
the US policy objectives, her immedi-
ate response: "As many as it takes
until the people of Iraq rise up." As
many as it takes!

For students, like those of us at
UCLA, this is an important time for
us to get involved. Lack of political
leadership continues to further erode
the foundation for public education
in the United States. But self-interest
aside, it is important to recognize the
important role that students have
played in social movements through-
out history.

This summer's protests

are movements for

global justice.

Now, as one of the most important
political events in decades comes to
our own backyard, it is our responsi-
bility to get involved and to help
ensure that our voices are heard.

Some argue that by protesting the
Democrats, we are playing into the
hands of the Republicans. For many,
though, the bottom line is that we can
no longer afford to fall into the trap
of supporting the "lesser of two
evils."

Everyone agrees that theoretically,
there is some point where choosing
the lesser of two evils no longer
makes sense. Today, at the start of
the new millennium, thousands of
people are insisting that the time is
now, that the Democrats have
crossed the line one too many times
and that it is past the lime for those
of us who believe in justice, fairness
and in real democracy to take a
stand.

Despite efforts by the police and
the mainstream media to suggest oth-
erwise, the protests this summer at
the Democratic and Republican con-
ventions are shaping up to be a beau-
tiful and powerful expression of a
multiplicity of movements for global
justice - race, gender, class, and eco-
logical justice.

As we have consistently done, we
will focus on the substance of the
issues. Some of these activists will
make their point using the time-hon-
ored tradition of nonviolent resis-
tance and civil disobedience, while

others will be writmg policy crltT-
cisms, holding side conventions, or
marching in the streets. All will speak
out and stand up in the face of global
exploitation. We hope that UCLA

students will be there with us!

Orientation Hwt 2000 23

Every Stereotype that
youVe heard about USC
Is 100 percent accurate.

At orientation you will also be
introduced to what UCLA students
hate most: Trojat^ (no, these aren't
more frat party date-rape jokes, I'm
talking about "USC). In the next cou-
ple of days you will hear every anti-
Trojan joke ever written, to which
you will say, "Hey, I liked that joke
better when it was about Polish peo-
ple." Still, it is important to note that
every stereotype you've heard about
USC is 100 percent accurate. What
do you expect from a school that is
dumb enough to name its team after
the people who lost the Trojan War?
I mean, who names themselves after
the losers? Notre Dame calls them-
selves the Fighting Irish, not the
Capitulating French.

If you think Troy is a bad symbol
for a school, it's even worse for a
condom. After all, think about just
how the Trojans lost the war. They
lost because a giant stallion penetrat-
ed their inner walls at night, under
the guise of a gift, and just when they
thought they were safe, the stallion
burst open and thousands of little sol-
diers rushed forth ruining every-
thing.

Ultimately, this place is

like a little city, or

perhaps a big one.

But I digress. I should be telling
you about UCLA social life. Perhaps
the best place to meet people will be
the floor of your dorm, unless you
live in the Sunset Suites, which aren't
as much dorms as they are dormant
(so I say wake 'em up!). The dorms
are your chance to meet a hundred
other students, all from such diverse
and fascinating places as Northridge
and Anaheim. It's a place where
embarrassing nicknames are forged,
gossip is incubated, and boundless
odors never fail to mystify. It'll be the
lime of your life.

Ultimately, ihis place is like a little
city, or perhaps a big one depending
on where you're from. You'll meet,
you'll flirt, you'll go out for colTee,
then probably go out for coffee
again. You'll join, you'll work, you'll
see your cash go bye-bye. You'll
study, you'll stop going to class,
you'll cram, you'll pray, you'll speak
"eYpIetiv«,Bury6ii"Trsufviver

Enjoy your stay at UCLA. I guar-
antee it will be eventful, if nothing
else. Welcome to the roller coaster to
the highway to the edge of the future
of tomorrow's brighter, shmier tar-
m^ to something or other!

From page 19 _„__

cd students of color (including
African Americans, Latino/as,
Chicano/as and Filipinos) you see at '
UCLA. If you can't find many, don't
be surprised. Despite its claims of
being one of the most diverse universi-
ties in the world, UCLA's entering
class of 2000 includes a minuscule
number of undcrrepresenled students.
For example, of a total admitted pop-
ulation of over 3,000 students, this
fall's enterin^cliiss includes fewer
than 30 African American men.

When I first came to
UCLA, I had only a -
minimal understanding

of how affirmative
action affected college

admissions and
^£: demographics.

I must be kidding, right? Wrong.
On the contrary, the number of under-
represented students of color at
UCLA has dropped by over 50 per-
cent over the past 5 years. How can
this be? In 1995, the UC Board of
Regents, the governing body of the .
University of California system,
passed Standing Policies 1 and 2 (SP-I
and SP-2), which eradicated the use of
affirmative action in university admis-
sions and hirings. The following year,
Califomian voters passed ballot mea-
sure Proposition 209, and eliminated
the use of affirmative action in
California's public sector. Since then,
diversity at UCLA has plummeted,
and tensions and misunderstandings
on campus have skyrocketed.

When I first came to UCLA, I had
only a minimal understanding of how
affirmative action affected college
admissions and demographics. I did
not understand then that affirmative
action was originally intended to be a
partial solution to help bridge the gap
between the opportunities availableto
underprivileged students and the
capacity of these students to excel. — ^
Not all students are given the same
opportunities in their communities to
take Advanced Placement or honors
courses, pay for expensive SAT prepa-
ration classes, or receive college-track
counseling in high school. These dis-
advantages directly affect a student's
ability to enter competitive universi- ,,
ties like UCLA, and are not in any
way a reflection of individual intelli-
gence or capacity.

It is our opportunity (as

students) to put the

diversity of Los Angeles

back into UCLA.

How did I figure all this out? By
asking questions. When I entered
UCLA I thought I was continuing my
education. When I started asking
questions, I slowly came to realize that
I was starting from square one. As a
university student, there are two
broad types of knowledge available to
you. The first is the information you
will receive inyour classes through
lectures, notes, readings and assign-
ments. The second is the awareness
you can gain by asking questions, lis-
.l^I}ing J? your peers, an d looking criti-
cally at your surroundings.

As an entering freshman, you have
deep reserves of information. College
is our chance to begin increasing our
awareness. This is our opportunity to

^^C^ K^P^V^^^^v^V^^W/ VV^^V A J

push ourselves beyond what we think
we know, to learn to act in solidarity
with the struggles of others, and to use
our privileges as college students to
better the communities surrounding
us. It is our opportunity to put the
diversity of Los Angeles back into
UCLA.

~ As you read this, I ask you to • —
remember that many of the issues on
this campus are painful and difficult.
If, however, we push ourselves to
become aw^re and arm ourselves with

the truth no matter how hurtful of dis-
^appointingitmay be, we can empow-
er ourselves to take action and to alter
reality to reflect our ideals. Our
actions may manifest in hundreds of
different wayiS, from protests to tutor-
ing to art exhibits to teach-ins to writ-
ing. The important thing^is that we do
whatever we can to learn about and
change UCLA's existing injustices.

Margaret Mead once wrote,
"Never doubt that a small group of
thoughtful, comjnitted citizens can
change the world. Indeed, it is the
only thing that ever has." As you enter
the college experience, look around,
take a deep breath, and allow yourself
to grow. Give yoursclQhe space lo ask
questions about what you don't under-
stand. Most importantly, get involved.
Contact student organizations or one
of the many offices of the
Undergraduate Students Association
Council, such as the External Vice
President's office, the Cultural Affairs
Commission, or the Academic Affairs
Commission. Attend teach-ins and ral-
lies. Take interesting classes that you
don't "need" to get a degree. Engage
in conversations with people different
from yourself In these ways, we can
change the world. Welcome to
UCLA.

Getting oriented with L.A. hot spots aucial to student life

Having"'

UCLA is justr
as much a part
of campus life

as attending
classes

By Terry Tang

Daily Bruin Senior Staff

Before, if Gregory Poirier wanted
to film a movie in the College
Library in Powell Hall, he couldn't
make it past the double doors. Of
course, that was back in the late '80s
when he was a graduate student in
the UCLA School of Theater. Film
and Television, making student
films.

Though no longer a struggling stu-
dent. Poirier is still very much a film-
maker. With a script he penned, the
aspiring director is helming his first
feature movie. A romantic comedy
set to open during the spring of next
year, "Tomcats" boasts some rising
stars in the guise of Jerry O'Connell
("Mission to Mars," "Scream 2")
and Shannon Elizabeth, who had
male viewers wagging their tongues
as the exchange student, Nadia, in
last summer's "American Pie."

Today, with all the resources of a
film studio behind him, Poirier has
the clout to bring an entire film crew
as well as a barrage of equipment
into Powell. Only a few weeks into
filming, Poirier and his team need to
shoot one scene in the school's
library.

"I called Richard Walter and said
"You got to come by and sec me
"Today." So, Tm looking for him to"
show up," said" Poirier. referring to
the chairman of the UCLA screen-
writing program. "Its like a full-cir-
cle kmd of a ihmg. It"sm> first direct-
ing movie. .So. it's kind of neat to be
back here."

In the scene. Michael, a bachelor
wilh a lot of debt (0"Connell). meets
up with Natalie, a beautiful LAPD
cup (l:li/abeth). at the city library,
Though Michael is trying to set up
.Natalie with his chauvini.stic friend
m order to win a bet and its mone-
tary ante, he ends up falling for her
as well.

In between the many takes,
Poirier. who graduated with a
screenwriting degree in '89,
O'Connell and Elizabeth took time
•out to chat. Though the three are
working on one scene, they expect to
spend most of the day in Powell.

Actor Jerry O'Connell participates in an interview on the set of "Tomcats" on Monday in the College Library.

campus filmings are part of going to
school at UCLA. From time to time,
buildings and common campus
routes will be closed off to students
and stafT, Still. Ihcsc mnvlc rrnws

don't infiltrate campus whenever
they feel like it. A great deal of
advance planning happens through
the UCLA Events Office.

As a liaison between the universi-
ty and Tinseltown studios, the
Events Office hands out film permits
based on a number of factors.
According to the office's official
guidelines, it must approve the dates
and locations desired, the parking
plan and even the script.

Many people are unaware of how
often the Events Office is
approached with requests by film
studios. "Scream 2," "Threesome,"
"The X-Files" and "Buffy the
Vampire Slayer" are just some of the
many films and TV programs that
have filmed at UCLA. But if outside
movie crews had their way. they
would be able to film during the first
week of the quarter or finals week.
So. one of the most crucial jobs of
Events Office is making sure higher
education doesn't take a back seat to
film shoots

While students do get star-struck
when they unexpectedly cross paths
with celebrities on their way to cla.ss,
they're usually still concentrating on
class The cameras, props and movie
trailers are all part and parcel of the
experience of going to school in
Southern California.

Meanwhile, O'Connell enjoys
shooting at UCLA rather than
- " ■s omcd i r l y .s tud io r The acto r c on -
siders the campus a' regular hangout.
An ardent (lag football player, he
and his brother Charlie, also an
actor, frequent the intramural field.
He also do e s wee kl y Up s a t Dr ake

Stadium.

"I run all the lime at Drake
Stadium. You can tell because I have
my_ green truck out there,"
O'Connell said. "I've only gotten
two tickets but I paid both of them."

"In L.At, especially in
Hollywood, you really miss the col-^
lege life," O'Connell continued.
"You can literally come down to
Westwood, go to In-N-Out and be
right back, smack in the middle of
it."

Most of the filming will take place
in Los Angeles for the next two
months, with the exception of some
scenes in Las Vegas. This schedule
works fine for Elizabeth. Though
some actors may relish in the

prospect of traveling to different
locations, the actor prefers to stay
close to her LA. residence.

More importantly, Elizabeth took
the role of the jaded LAPD officer
because it was a leap from the high
school comedy, a genre in itself.

"I liked that she was tough and
she was a cop," said Elizabeth, while
kicking back outside Schoenberg
Hall. "She plays the tough girl and
she plays the vulnerable girl. She just
had a lot of colors to her and it
seemed like it would be a bt of fun:"

Though she's spending the entire
day on a college campus, the actor
never joined in university life.«^fter
finishing high school, Elizabeth
opted to model and act and never

"[ was accepted to Texas A&M. I
had a scholarship there and every-
thing," Elizabeth said. "The oppor-
tunity for me to work came along. So
I wanted to take it while I had it."

O'Connell, on the other hand,
chose to go on to college. Since his .
debut at 12 years of age in Rob
Reiner's "Stand By Me," O'Connell
mingled adolescence with acting.
The actor, who graduated from
NYU, credits film school for teach-
ing him the differences between the-
ater and movies. He is also grateful
that his parents insisted that their son
get a college education.

"These are things that you and I
think of as very normal but a lot of
child actors never get to do because .
their parents are pretty much mak-
ing' a living on them," O'Connell
said. "Their children are a source of
inconie. That was not the ca.se with
my parents. And also New York City
is not Hollywood. It's a pretty cool
place to grow up."

Though there are a plethora of
success stories of actors, directors
and screenwriters who bypassed col-
lege and went straight to Hollywood,
Poirier found UCLA's film school
very beneficial. Besides gaining a
sense of how the industry worked, he
met his first agent at film school and ~
learned how to whip up a script in 10
weeks -just before the quarter's end.

"Obvtotjsfy, thettegree^itselfdoes- —
n't help you. But it helped me in the
sense thi^t everything I know about
writing, I learned here from Richard
Walter and, Hal Ackerman and all

THEATER: From shopping
to dining, new Bruins can
a^ways find fun activities

By Barbara Mcfitnre

Daily Bruin Senior Staff

^ los Angetes^is noterlous'fbf ilstack-
adaisical lifestyle, its surfers, stars and
wannabes. For its women (most of
whom have had at least one thing
changed on them by a plastic surgeon),
its beautiful weather, and most of all,
"Ibr its scandals with the i-lch and
famous. Yes, Los Angeles definitely
lives up to its stereotype of supreme
superficiality. And in the middle of it
all, nestled in the hills of Westwood,
amid the high noses of Beverly Hills
and Bel Air, and only a few short min-
. utes from Hollywood, lies UCLA.

UCLA students have the unique
opportunity to explore all the hot and
trendy spots surrounding the campus
that every Los Angeles resident must
familiarize themselves with. Places that
are as notorious as the city, with a histo-
ry just as rich, and locations that are full
of the wacky and the wicked from the
city of angels.

First, the streets. Every city has its
"streets." Just as San Francisco has
Haight Street, Los Angeles packs a few
of its own.

Hoiiywood Boulevard . . ' '■' ■'-' : ■ ,,

BRAD MORIKAWA/Daily Brum

The Laugh Factory comedy club is one of many entertainment venues along the Sunset Strip.

Quite possibly one of the most
"touristy" streets, scores of out-of-state
and out-of-country visitors can be
found here year-round, complete with
pocket guides and cameras.
Hollywood Boulevard is known best
for its Walk of Fame. Quite possibly the
world's most famous sidewalk, the
Walk of Fame is inlaid with stars
adorned with the names of the men and
women who have helped give
Hollywood its "personality."

The stars were first set in 1958 as a
permanent tribute to those in the
motion picture, television, radio,
recording and live theatre industry, rec-
ognizing their life-long contributions.
Today, it is considered both a cultural
and historical landmark. The Walk
extends on both sides of the street from
Gower to La Brea and continuing on to
Vine Street where it r^ns from Yucca to
Sunset Boulevard. >

But Hollywood Boulevard is filled
with many more reasons to visit other

than the star-lined sidewalk. Mann's
Chinese Theater with its beautiful
architecture is also located on the
street, playing host to various movie
premieres. Outside of the theater are
the exclusive footprints and hand-
prints, personal messages and auto-
graphs, of 175 chosen stars. Recent
additions include Harrison Ford and
Denzel Washington.

In addition to these star-inspired
monuments, Hollywood Boulevard
also boasts a Ripley's Believe It or Not
and Guinness Book of World's
Records museum.

Melrose Avenue

No, this is not the street where that
sex-centered television drama,
"Melrose Place" occurred, but it is one
of the best places to shop in Los
Angeles. Melrose Avenue is located in
Hollywood, just a few blocks north of
Hollywood Boulevard. It is home to
numerous specialty shops which line
both sides of the street. Stores range
from Red Balls, which caters to the
rave subculture; to Retail Slut, which
sells everything from exotic wigs to
bondage gear.

Originating as a thrift-shop venue
with stores such as Wasteland, Melrose
Avenue has gained popularity over the

years, becoming a trendy location for
shoppers due to its specialty shops.

Special hint No. 1 : Melrose is noto-
riously known as the place to hit when
looking for rare shoes, as well as just
shoes in general - practically every
oth^r shop is a shoe store.

Special hint No. 2: Many a star has
been sighted browsing in the shops
along Melrose. Rumor has it that
Leonardo DiCaprio frequently drops
by at Melrose's Noah's Bagels.

Sunset Strip ,. _

Quite possibly the No. 1 place to
party in Los Angeles at night.
Countless bars, clubs and restaurants
line the Sunset strip. But those who
haven't reached the legal drinking age
should not fear, since not everything is
restricted to patrons 21 and over.

The Coconut Teaszer, a club which
often hosts various rock bands, is |8
and over, although you must have an
ID to access the full bar. Additionally,
located on the bottom floor of the
Coconut Teaszer is The Crooked Bar,
which features more independent
entertainment acts and even has an
open mike night for those looking to
make it "big."

For the 21 and over group, there are
several bars, such as the Good Bar, as

well as numerous clubs. The Viper
Room, for instance, co-owned by
Johnny Depp and Sal Jenco, is a popu-
lar spot. Yes, The Viper Room, in front
of which River Phoenix over-dosed,
really does exist and hosts various DJs,
as well as surprise visits from big-name
bands such as Stone Temple Pilots,
Bruce Springsteen and Sheryl Crow.
The interior is modeled after

Harlem's jazz clubs of the 1920s, and
though the club only has an intimate
capacity of 250, entrance into the club .
is not exclusive to well-known names -
anyone can get in.

There are also other well-known
clubs and bars, such as The Roxy,
where every rock band seems to play at
least once in their career; The House of
Blues, where big names play in a small
house setting; and The Whisky, where
The Doors once played regularly.

In addition to all these musically;
entertaining venues, various shops also
line the strip. There is the loud and eas:_
ily visible Hustler store, whose win-
dows are always filled with erotic and
outrageous lingerie for both men and
women There is also a Virgin
Megastore that occasionally hosts freeT
concerts with bands such as the
Smashing Pumpkins.

And finally, what would Hollywood^
be without its bodj^altering tattooing^
and piercing. Located on Sunset are
famous tattoo shops such as Sunset
Strip Tattoo Inc. which has tattooed
such names as Billy Idol, Tupac
Shakur, Pamela Lee, Lenny Kravitz
and Axl Rose.

Universal City Walk

Though technically not a street upon
which cars can drive. Universal City
Walk, located next to Universal Studios
Hollywood, bills itself as "the coolest
street in America." Much like an out-

Eclectic eateries provide Hp hangouts for starving students

RESTAURANTS: Many find

ByMkhaelRosen-Moiina

Daily Bruin Senior Staff

A new crop of freshmen are arriving
in the hallowed halls of UCLA and, like
innumerable generations of their pre-
decessors, one question no doubt
looms large in their minds: Where do
hip, happenin' college kids spend their
time? Even worse, if you don't have a
car, questions of major and finance will
naturally be secondary concerns to
how one is to find a new hangout.
Luckily, especially for this car-less sub-
set, the UCLA campus offers an eclec-
tic mix of hip hangouts for the stranded
student. One need not escape campus
or Westwood to have a good time.

Northern Lights ^__

(Above) Steven Coerd reads and eats pizza in Northern Lights,
a popular North Campus hangout. (Right) Jimmy's Coffeehouse
is located in Lu Valle Commons, a cluster of food service estab-
lishments located in the heart of North Campus.

The artistic sect, trapped in the far

reaches of North Can)pus, may find

refuge at Northern Lights, located

' between Rolfe Hall. Campbell Hall

the building is also home to a dive>se
food court that includes a pizza palace,
a Mexican counter, and the oddly
"named Flying Bagel DelT

With a scenic view and a roaring fire,
Northern Lights combines the cozy feel
of home with modern architecture.

modem; they're only lour years oW.

We've also got a fireplace and nice

cushy chairs, and we always have
music playing - modem, jazz, trans-
electronic," said Northern Lights
"Manager Gabor Fabian. "AH In all, the
atmosphere is nice and relaxing."

Northern Lights always gives
patrons something beautiful to look at,
which is appropriate given its kx:ation
on the artistic side 6f campus.

"We display a k)t of student art,"

Fabian said. "We rely on word of
mouth to get students interested in dis-
playing their work, but we also recruit
from the Scliool of Art and the differ-
ent departments."

"We have photography, multime-
dia, paintings, painted photos," he con-
tinued. "Right now, we have a display
of painted photographs."

Northern Lights sees its biggest busi-

ness between 9 a.m. and 4 p.m., and
again betw een 9 pm'. andT2 a.m. For-
the first set, the Coffeehouse is busy
with the coffee crowd; and for the lat-
ter, it is busy with the ice cream crowd.

Lu Valle Commons

North campus also boasts Lu Valle
Commons, an eclectic mix of small
restaurants located just north of Dodd
Hall.. Pacific Rice and Noodle Traders
specializes in Japanese cuisine with
trademark teriyaki chicken and a dif-
ferent special selection every day /^
submarine «andwich shop and a per-
sonal pizza shop are also located here,
as well as Jimmy's, Lu Valle's resident
coffeehouse.

"We're busiest between 9 and 1 1 :30
a.m. during the normal school year,"
said Jimmy's} manager Amec Chung.
"Over the summer, our business is
more spread out. We have a special
evening^extension for the extension stu-
dents. M'any of them have late classes
in Public Policy and Bunche, and thcy^
want to get a late snack aAerwards.**

Perhaps because it is further south,
Jimmy's is not as focused on student
art as Northern Lights.

Extras provide valuable hours, background scenery on sets

FILM: Teen movie genre's
growth creates work for
youthful-looking actors

By Brent Hopkins

Daily Bruin Senior Staff

RODERICK ROXAS

When audiences sit down to watch
"Friends," they instantly recognize
Matthew Perry and Jennifer Aniston.
They certainly aren't the only actors
on the show, however.

The guy walking his dog, the
woman ordering a latle and the kid
running through the park - they make
up the majority of the actors onTleir
yet they rarely get their name on-
screen. These are the background
actops who make scenes seem more
Realistic without even saying anything.
While they may start out as unknowns,
the extras can sometimes rise above
the anonymous plateau.

"There's a lot of actors who started
out doing extra work, like Brad Pitt,

Kevin Costner and Samuel L.
Jackson," said Zane Lamprey, presi-
dent and founder of ExtraCast, an
online background actor casting ser-
vice. "It reads like the who's-who list of
Hollywood."

When shooting a feature film or
television series, directors don't just
use props and special effects to make
the scenes interesting. They rely on
these background actors to fill each
shot with authentic color.

Unlike the main actors, who must
fit specific profiles, most extras are just
regular, everyday people. These actors
also don't necessarily need to belong
to the Screen Actors Guild. Though

the sizes. '"

Some roles require extras to wear
special costumes, but many are shot
with just everyday clothes that the
actors provide themselves. Some
enterprising extras even bring their
own costumes, props and equipment.

'Usually, extras bring their own
wardrobes," Saxon said. "Some of
them have their own LAPD uniforms,
nurse outfits, or stenography
machines. They get paid more for
those. Some people bring their cars for
freeway and traffic scenes.'

Rock stars' personalities, attitudes more i

MUSIC: Image, charisma
remain important despite
evolving genres of soiind

By Judy Pak

Daily Bruin Senior Staff

The stability and thorny future of
the rock star is uncertain.

Sound, image, and sex. Year after
year and minute by minute, the ele-
ments of rock 'n' roll are changing.
But as long as ther« are bedroom
walls to poster and parents screaming
to lower the volume, people will for-
ever dream of being rock stars - gods
among the mortals.

The music that people love around
their 2ps usually sticks with them for-
ever; then they start whining about
how good music used to be.

This leads one to ask: so what is a
rock star? If someone can be the
image of the excess an audience feels,
then they're a rock star.

Sometimes stardom crushes them.

Sometimes it just makes
them dress weird.

That's not the whole
description of a rock star's
job, though. As rock
moves into its adulthood,
what is most dramatically
affixed to the duties of
stardom is also what's
changed most.

Long ago, in a far-off
land, the constitutive job
of rock stars was to annoy
parents, to push them
away so teens could have
some private space to be
angry freaks, wreck things
and to become "free."

Rock stars were a social
revolution, a way of separating the
world into "Us and Them," the hip-
sters and the squares.

But everyone's a hipster now and,
inevitably, the rock stars' role has
changed.

Whereas Elvis' groin was once
banned from the airwaves, there are
now entire channels dedicated to let-

than the tunes

EXTRAS

Frompage30 . v /

Often, these directions are nothing
more than "sit there" or "walk across the
street." In these instances, actors must
do their best to just blend in and not dis-
tract the audience's attention from the
main focus of the scene.

"The No. I trick to background act-
ing is to do whatever would be natural in
that situation or circumstance for you,"
Chambers said in "Back to One." .

Since the same level of talent is
required for most extra roles, casting
decisions are generally based on physi-
cal attributes. Age is the first category -
most 60-year-olds won't find work in

-4)igh school scenes, and most teens
won't be cast as doctors or cops.

_ Following this, bo dy type, et hnicity, and
appearance are all important. There is

, no set type that's more in-demand than

^Others, owing to the wide variety of parts
required. Sometimes, it can be a broad
call for 18-30 year olds of all races, but

"depending on die role, the requirements
can be extremely specific, r ^ r^
"For 'Nutty Professor I!,' they need-
ed stand-ins for all the K lumps,"
Lamprey said. "They needed 300-pound

-African American men and women.*^
Acting as a stand-in is another impor-
tant part of the extra repertoire. When
employed in this capacity, they walk
through an actor's scene, allowing the
crew to set up cameras and equipment
to prepare for their scene. This way, the
number of takes an actor must shoot is
minimized.

"An actor can do five minutes a day,
with the stand-in doing ten hours of
work," Lamprey said. *■ j.

Stand-ins don't have to be exact dou-
bles of the actor, but they must be similar
in bo^ physical stature and skin tone to
allow the equipment to be properly cali-
brated. In this case, physical traits are
extremely important, but for most roles,
they are less important than age.

Cufrentty. the trend is to hire young
actors.

"A lot of the shows are high school
programs, so we always look for actors
who are 18 but look 16," Saxon said.
"The younger you look, the more you'll
work on shows like 'Roswell' and
'Popular.'"

The same is true when casting films,
Lamprey said.

"Right now, what's hot are 18-27
year-olds. Studios are just realizing after
many years that their ticket sales are
going to high school and college kidsT
Instead of making movies for the 'main-
stream,' they're trying to localize with
their teen movies. 'American Pie' and
'Can't Hardly Wait' set the whole thing

off":', ■'-yyv-.-:. ;•:•->-.; ;-r----'

While the roles might ru>t be as-
demanding as a starring turn in a major
studio p icture, be ing a b ackground
actor is no easy task. They frequently
don't know until the day of a shoot
whether they'll be working. And unless
they're upgraded to a more involving
part, they may have to look for a new

shoot every day.

"It's hard to make a living being an
extra, because there are so many people
who want to do it," Saxon said. "There's
not as many jobs as there are people,
and you're competing against thousands
of people."

Though it may be a difficult road to
stardom, the hard work can definitely
pay ofT. While the chance of being dis-
covered like Pitt or Jackson may be rare,
just being on the scene provides an
invaluable look at how things are done.
According to Lamprey, there is nothing
better.

"1 always tell people that a hot set is
the actor's classroom. You can read
books until you're blue in the face, but
you're not going to learn unless you're
thrown into the action."

place to take a date.

There are several places to eat,
such as Gladstones, a seafood restau-

a huge neon guitar in front; and
Wolfgang Puck Cafe, a pizzeria.
After eating, City Walk visitors often
hit the Universal City Cinemas or the

For a more interesting evening.
City Walk now has its own rock 'n'

Aside from the streets, Los

located about 15 minutes from
UCLA (depending on the traffic),

Third Street Promenade is anoth-

shops on the street as well as a regu-

the beach, this strip of shops contains
nothing ordinary. The street enter-

rock star; hooking up with the emo-
tions of the oppressed adolescent
and the street hip hop style, he reads
as the rcalest thing on two legs.

For rock stars, there's no contra-
diction between fantasy and realness.
The ability of rock stars to represent
fans' sense of the surreal is exactly
what makes them real; no matter
how much they fake it onstage and in_
the studio, the capacity to embody
the excess is the realest thing rock
stars can do.

M ark (McG rath will never be a
rock star because deep down he's ter-
rified ten million in sales makes him
fake, and that fake is bad. So he goes-
out of his way to be smaller than life,
and wonders what it's like to be a
superhero. .

It may also be the case

that hip hop produces

relatively irony-free

stars because rap

is still young.

Courtney Love might sell 1/10 as
much as McGrath but no matter, she
still dresses up and messes up like
rock is the biggest story in the world,
and that's the hallucination rockers
are charged with maintaining.

Consider Busla Rhymes, as fic-
tion-strange a character as anybody
could invent. Still, he's the very
image of the feeling that street-cor-
ner life could explode into something
a million times grander.

It may also be the case that hip
hop produces relatively irony-free
stars because rap is still young.
Meanwhile, even younger styles are
starling to throw up the next genera-
tion of heroes, and, inevitably, as the
music changes, so does the nature of
stardom. ,

In some ways this tradition hasn't
changed at all: the *N Syncs of the
world will always be with us, safe

OVERVIEW: ^st,^res<

UCLA athletes prepare to
compete in Sydney games

By Dylan Hernandez

Daily Bruin Senior Staff

Since the modern Olympics began
in 1896. UCLA has had unparalleled
success at the Games. The school has
sent 332 athletes to the Garner, with
over half of them having won a medal.
Of those medals, 95 have been gold.

This summer, UCLA again
expects to send its^share of current
and former athletes to the Olympics
in Sydney, Australia. For some ath-
letes, it will be a return trip, either to
maintain their position as the world's
best or to undo previous disappoint-
ments. For others, it will be their
opportunity to reach a life-long
dream. Then there is the group of
those like Jess Strutzel, a track and
field All-American at 800 meters.

For Strutzd, who completed his
fourth year of school this spring, the
Olympic dream started just last year.

As a high schooler at Huntington
Beach, he was among the best in the
CIF Southern Section, but nowhere
near the level of Michael Granville of
Bell Gardens. Granville ran 1:46.45
to set a national record and qualify for
the Olympic Trials. Strutzel, mean-

lile, lagged back in the i:52s. —

Yet, after a few ye4rs at UCLA,
which both he and Granville attend-
ed, Strutzel found himself to be the
one closer to the Olympics. Granville
was hampered by a string of injuries
and Strutzel was competing in big
meets without him. Strutzel's times
were dropping and soon, he was
among the best middle-distance run-
ners in college.

UCLA has sent 332
athletes to the Games,
with over half of them
having won a medal -

95 have been gold.

Last summer, Strutzel qualified for
the USA Track and Field champi-
onships and made the finals.
Although he fizzled out in the cham-
pionship race, he knew he was close.
If he could finish in the top three at
the Olympic Trials in one year, he
would go to Sydney. •

M can do this," he told himself.

Since then, Strutzel has been train-
ing with the Olympics in mind, joining
hordes of other Bruins doing so.

Several of those UCLA stars will

be playing on the softball team, which
captured gold in the '96 Atlaiita
Games. Five former Bruins, includ-
ing current assistant coach Lisa
Fernandez, are on the squad, along
with current UCLA slugger Stacey
Nuveman.

UCLA's volleyball program
should have a good showing, both
indoors and out. Dan Laridry (1990-
93), JeffNygaard (1992-95) and Tom
Stillwell (1995-98) are all part of the
current U.S. indoor national team.
Also, fellow Bruin alum Kevin Wong
-is considered to be one of the better
players on the beach tour and will
probably be chosen for the Olympics.

For the women, Annette Davis
(1991-94), Jenny Jordan (1992-95),
Liz Masakayan (1982-85) and Elaine
Youngs (1988-92) also have a good
shot on the beach.

While former Bruin Reggie Miller
(1984-97) was not selected to be part
of this year's basketball "Dream
Team," UCLA will have a roundball
entrant in Sydney, as American
Basketball League's 1998 MVP
Natalie Williams (1991-94) is current-
ly on the national team roster.

On the soccer field, Pete Vagenas
(1996-99) and Sasha Victorine (1996-
99), current teammates on the LA.
Galaxy, are also likely to wear the
American colors. Both are on the

SOFTBALL: UCLA players
lop National squad roster,
represent school, nation

By Greg Lewis

Daily Bruin Senior Staff

UCLA has an Olympic tradition
unmatched by any other school, and
this tradition extends to softball.
where it is the dominant school with
seven players on the 19-person roster.

UCLA is as conspicuous in interna-
tional competition as it is at the colle-
giate level. The seven players on the
national team had played in four of
UCLA's nine national champi-
onships.

Bruins on the U.S. team roster are
Stacey Nuveman (1997-present),
Christie Ambrosi (class of 1999),
Jennifer Brundage (1995), Lisa
Fernandez (1993), Sheila Cornell-
Douty (1984), Dot Richardson (1983)
and alternate Amanda Freed (1999-
present). Since alternates will not trav-
el to Sydney, Nuveman is the team's
only collegian.

Tanya Harding (1995), Joanne
Alchin (1993) and Kerry Dicnelt
( 1991 ) will play in the 2(X)0 Games for
Australia, which, along with China, is
Team USA's main competition for the
gold in Sydney.
" For the three current Bruins -
Nuveman, Freed, plus assistant coach
Lisa Fernandez - the Olympics give
them a chance not only to represent
the United Stales in Sydney, but

College World Series), we're playing
for 32,000 plus millions. It's a lot more
pressure," Fernandez said.

There's also one huge difference for
the Bruins, according to Fernandez.
"The relationships change. At UCLA,
I am their coach. Oji the national
team, I am their teammate," she said.
"It's so different - as a coach I can't
really be their friend, but (on the
national team I am their friend) as a
player, it's great because I also realize
that I can learn from them."

"Ifyou work hard here,

you have a wonderful

opportunity to be

recognized as an

Olympian."

Sue Enquist

UCLA softball coach

Team USA began its preOIympic
"Central Park to Sydney" tour of exhi-
bition games in June and is 18-0
through Friday, June 23.

So far, all seven Bruins have per-
formed extremely well.

On Friday, joining the team after
completing finals at school. Freed
pitched a perfect game in her debut,
striking out 1 1 batters in five innings of
a 19-0 win. Nuveman is the team's
starting catcher and is second on the

UCLA as well.

"Instead of playing for 32,000 peo-
ple like in Oklahoma (site of the

team in o i hbas e pe r ce n tage, batting — 2 - 0. UCL A w as the o nly cnlle g e

three games as a pitcher and is first in
on-base percentage, and third in bat-
ting.

Cornell-Douty starts at first,
Richardson starts at second base,
Brundage at third and Ambrosi in left.
"Training with the national team is
different," Nuveman said. "It's much
more self-motivated. When you're in
college, every day is planned, the
schedule is strict. With the national
team, there is much more training on
your own. A lot of the time you are
away from the team, but you still have
to do the individual workout."

When not training in the Olympic
facility in Chula Vista, Nuveman,
Fernandez and Ambrosi work out in
Los Angeles. Before the 2000 softball
season, Ambrosi and Nuveman
learned they would not be able to play
for the UCLA and national teams at
the same time. Ambrosi gave up her
final year of eligibility at UCLA to
play in the Olympics, Nuveman red-
shirted the season, and Fernandez was
forced to miss occasional games when
her national team responsibilities

called.

The loss of UCLA's two best hitters
was huge for the Bruini, but head
coach Sue Enquist took it in stride.
"Losing Christie Ambrosi and Stacey
Nuveman to the Olympic team sends a
great message to our current team. If
you work hard here, you have a won-
derful opportunity to be recognized as
an Olympian," Enquist said.

In March the Olympic team, play-
ing with Fernandez and Nuvcnwin,
defeated Freed and UCLA 3-0 and
the only cnllege Team

OLYMPICS: Team looks to
popularize water polo for
women at summer games

'y When Nicolle Payne hejrd the
news over the phone, she walked back
to the dining room where her family
was eating dinner, smiled at them, and
started screaming.

When Robin Beauregard heard the
news, she went to the nearest pay
phone, called her parents, and again,
there was more elated screaming.

And when Catherine von Schwarz
heard the news, she ... well, von

"She was so excited she forgot,"
Beauregard said with a laugh at a
press conference at the National
Aquatics Center in Los Alamitos,
Calif. — —

In October of 1997, after years of
struggling, after years of watching one
Olympics after another go by,
women's water polo finally became an
Olympic sport.

"Every year an Olympics came'
around, women's water polo got its
hopes up and was disappointed,"
Payne said. "But our sport has gotten

so popular. They couldn't deny us
much longer."

Not that the powers that be - the
IOC and La Federation
Internationale de Natation Amateur
(FIN A), the international governing
body for water sports - didn't try to
keep it from happening.

"They said it was too small, they
said the sport wasn't developed
enough. They gave every excuse,"
Coralie Simmons said.

"(FINA) was not used to

women being so

aggressive.

When the players heard that

women's water polo would actually be

Hn the Olympics, it was even more

uplifting because they were beginning

to think the sport would never make it.

"When the Olympics were in
Atlanta - in our home country - we
thought it was going to happen," von
Schwarz said. "When it didn't we
were bummed. It didn't seem like it
would ever happen."

TRACK: Upcoming trials
wiU pit 12 Bruins against
predecessors, NCAA stars

ByOwistiiMTeler

Dally Bruin Senior Staff

A chance for Olympic dreams lies a
couple hundred miles north of the
UCLA campus. This locale is only fit-
ting as the Bruin track program looks
to send 12 of its finest to Sacramento
to vie for one of the three coveted
spots in each of their respective events.

With the qualifying period stretch-
ing from January 1999 through July
2000, these dreams have been formu-
lating long before the end of the school
year.

For many athletes in an Olympic
sport, the games are their ultimate
dream.

"For most collegiate athletes, the
Olympic trials are viewed as a stepping
stone," distance coach Eric Peterson
said. "Those who are fortunate
enough to compete in the trials will be
up against a much higher level of com-
petition and the stakes are much high-
er.

"They'r'e up against people who
have devoted their entire lives to being
an Olympic champion," Peterson
added.

Following in the footsteps of many
illustrious Bruins-tumcd^Mympians.
the Bruin roster is young and hungry
for valuable experience and personal
records.

"It's a good opportunity for UCLA
ath l etes to go and cu i npetc at the ii cai

Boldensaid.

It is an athlete like Seilala Sua
whose next step is this next level.
Having just swept the NCAA champi-
onships in both the discus and shot
put, Sua is the sixth-ranked thrower in
the world.

"She has proven on an internation-
al level that she can do it," throwing
coach and men's head coach Art
Venegas said. "She's already qualified
for the Olympics, all she needs to do is
get in the top three to make the team."

Sua, the winningest athlete in
UCLA track and field history and the
first woman to win a single event at the
NCAAs for four consecutive years, is
humble about her success. She talks
about preparing for the Olympic trials
as a part of her regular training sched-
ule.

"I've really been working on getting
my form down," she said. "I've been
lifting weights and I have a few meets
before the trials. After those, I'm just
going to wait for the trials."

Despite her taking care of business
approach, she is excited.

"I am expecting to win and make
the Olympic team," Sua said.

And rightly so. Sua has dedicated
her life to track afl*^ field because it's
what she loves to do most. After domi-
nating NCAA competition through-
out her collegiate career, she is ready
to move on.

Jess Strutzel, 2000 Indoor 800
fl^er champion, is also looking
beyond collegiate competition in the
long run. Entered with his time of
1 45.81, the current UCLA record,
Strutzel sits behind eight men in the
r a n k in gs. U p aga in st th e fa mi l i a r com-

Monica Track and Field Club and
Derrick Peterson of Missouri, both of
whom he has defeated and been
defeated by, his chances of making the
Olympics is a matter of his perfor-
mance on that given day.

But the bulk of the Bruin hopefuls
have a couple of years ahead of them
to garner experience. Having just
competed in the NCAA champi-
onships at the beginning of June, the
athletes got a small taste of what they
will be up against in Sacramento.

"At NCAAs, you'see a lot of people
who go on to the Olympics," Bolden
said. "To me, NCAAs are a prerequi-
site to the next level of track and field
because so many Olympians went
through the NCAA system."

Shekedia Jones, who completed her
junior year this spring, faces arguably
the toughest competition out on the
track. Up against the likes of Marion
Jones and Inger Miller in the 200m in
addition to former Bruin Gail Devers
in the 100m, Jones will face off against
some of the world's finest.

Similarly, high jumper Darnesha
Griffith, niece of Bruin-turned
Olympians Jackie Joyner-Kersee and
the late Florence GriflTith Joyner, must
vie againsr former Bruin and high
jump extraordinaire Olympian Amy
Acuff.

"The approach for someone like
Seilala, who has a legitimate chance
for a spot, is different from the
younger athletes," Peterson said.
"Athletes like Darnesha Griffith, who
are improving at a very fast rate, are
going to the Trials for an opportunity
to compete against some of the best

contact sport.

"They're not used to women being t

so aggressive," Simmons said.

But with the Olympics in Sydney ^
this year, the Australian National
Team, an international powerhouse, -^
fought to get women's water polo Tn
Uae 2000 Games - and were success- :
ful. They even got the Australian jl_
Olympic Committee to build a brand
new pool to host the women's games. -

This year's Olympics will have six
teams vying for the medals. Australia
has an automatic berth by right of
being the host nation; Kazakhstan will .:
go as the Asian champion; the /
Netherlands will go as the European '
champion; and Canada won the spot
for the American continent. Thus the
final two teams, Russia and the
United States, had to place in the top
two at the Olympic Qualifying tourna-
ment to earn the remaining two spots.

Russia did this by beating Italy and
the United States did so by beating
Hungary 6-5 4n the semifinals of the
qualifying round; ■ — — — —

The U.S. National team has 17

In addition to the seven Bruins on
the national team, Natasha Watley,
who just completed her freshman
season as an National Fastpitch
Coaches Association Ail-American,
was the youngest player to make the
final round of tryouts for the nation-
al team.

"Even though I didn't make it,
going through the tryouts was a good
thing. Next time around, I'll have an
advantage over the new players
because I will have gone through the
experience already," Watley said.

UCLA also placed four players on
the 1996 U.S. Olympic Team, with
Fernandez, Richardson and Cornell
starting and Brundage making the
team as an alternate. Janice Parks
(1989) played for the Puerto Rican
national team in the '96 games.-

And of course, there is Strutzel.

Although medal ing in Sydney is
unlikely and his chances of making
the Games are marginal. Strutzel has
been at UCLA's Drake Stadium run-
ning intervals on the track since the
beginning of the summer. His girl-
friend, Ali Villagra, looked on, hold-
ing a stopwatch.

Villagra said, referring to the
Olympic Track Trials in iate h'

though."

Strutzel thinks training at Drake
will give him the advantage he needs.

"There's a power here," he said.
"You feel it. Everyday, you see great
athletes training here and you
remember the ones that used to come
here. It gives you strength."

Team USA has outscored the oppo-
sition by an overwhelming 133-1
margin. The United States has domi-
nated in international competition
since winning the inaugural softball
Olympic gold medal in 1996. It has
won almost every prestigious tourna-
ment, including the Canada Cup, the
Pan-American Games and the
International Softball Federation
World Championships.

Team USA will play approximate-
ly one-third of its tour games against
WPSL teams, where the squad will
get its best pre-Sydney indication of
how it is playing. So far, the national
team has defeated the Akron Racers
and the Florida Wahoos each by
scores of 1-0. The low scoring games
indicate to national team head coach
Ralph Raymond tliat the pitching is
right on track, but the hitters' timing
is a bit off.

One person who gained a tremen-
dous amount of experience in a short
period of time is sophomore pole-

third year competing in the sport,
O'Hara claimed both the 2000
indoor and outdoor national titles
and would have clinched the world
record in April had her arm not
caught the bar at 1 5- 1. ; . : ■

"After she won the indoor champi-
onship, we both knew right then that
she has the capacity of making the
Olympic team," pole vault coach
Anthony Curran said.

and ranked fifth on the world list,

Maryland. "Now yoQ have eastern
high school x:hampionships. It's
amazing how fast it grew in 10
years."

When UCLA first had a women's
water polo team in 1995, there were a
total of four Division I programs.
Now there are over 50, and next year
the sport will be an NCAA sport.

After the sport became an
Olympic competition, the national
team finally began getting serious
funding to help U.S. women's water^
polo succeed. Before, players had to
w6rk another job while training with
the team.

As soon as she heard it would be
an Olympic sport, Beauregard decid-
ed to go out for the national team.
Before that, joining the team hadn't
been an option. 5.: ; •

"I was really focused on school,'*
she said. "I didn't think there was
anything in water polo then."

Everyone is aware of the impact

"Now she's in the top five in the
world, and she's sitting pretty com-
fortably going into the trials," Curran
said. "She knows she'll have to per-
form well. She's been one to rise to
the occasion."

Despite the enormity of the
achievements made by track and
field athletes, their world is not as
vast as it appears, for they must face
the same competition time and time
again. This year's Bruin 12 will
encounter a number of UCLA alums
in the heat of Sacramento. Acuff,
Devers, thrower John Godina and
hurdler Joanna Hayes will be among
them.

"Going into the Olympic Trials,
they automatically know what is at
stake and what they're going to have
to do," Bolden said. "They know the
competition is going to be stiff and
that they have to perform on that
day."

Anything, Bolden added, can hap-

thcy could be making on the sport in
the United States.

"It could be huge," Baker said. "I
think the U.S. making the Olympics
is a big step. It's good for the sport,
but if wc could medal, the growth
potential is enormous."

And with only six teams in the
field, the United States has a 50
percent chance of medaling. Not
only that, but the team's potential
impact on the future of women's
water pblo only makes them hun-

"The team is motivated by that,"
Baker said. "It's part of their legacy
to have a big impact on the sport."

They're motivated by that - and
the fact they are simply playing in
the Olympics itself.

"It's been, obviously, a drearh
forever," Simmons said with a
smile. "To be able to experience it,
to be able to finally go to the big
event is so exciting."

pen on any given day.

"I've seen young people come out
of nowhere and veterans who haven't
been doing their best show more at
the trials. You have to do it on that
one day."

A gold medalist herself, Bolden
speaks from firsthand experience. A
member of the first place 1984
4x1 00m relay team, Bolden was both
a Bruin and an Olympian.

It's only fitting that an Olympian
will lead her Bruins to the trials.

"I just want them to get a taste of
what it's like," Bolden said, "they'll
be up against people who they've
only seen on TV and have been in
awe of. I want them to see that this is
what it feels to be at the Olympic tri-
als."

With experience as their coach,
the Bruins donH need to look very far
for a source of inspiration as they
head up north in hopes of ending up
down under.

Many incoming freshmen can
argue that much of their decision to
attend UCLA is due to the school's
rich academic success. But these
freshmen would not be totally honest
if the choice did not also come down
to the bleeding of the Bruin blue and
gold seen in the school's successes in

ic history the way UCLA has.

The Sears' Directors Cup is the

FRESHMEN: Process to
select top athletes begins
earlier than most think

By Amanda needier

Daily Bmin Senior Staff

There is no question that UCLA
has a great athletic tradition. Nearly
every team the Bruins field is com-
petitive in its conference and is a
national title contender. Mudi of this
has to do with incredible coaching
and training, but behind these fac-
tors lies the first step toward creating
a winning team - reauiting.

Recruiting is what brings young
athletes full of potential to UCLA
and allows them to become legends
like Lew Alcindor, Marques
Johnson, Gail Devers and Lisa
Fernandez.

UCLA spends between $500,000
to SI million annually on its recruit-
ing efforts. With the program's 82
NCAA titles overall, it's easy to say
that the money is well spent
"^^ut how is the money spent? The
recruiting process is long and com-
plicated. Director of Recruiting
Michael Sondheimer calls it "tin
ongoing four-year process.**

Coaches travel the country
attending every major event in their
respective sports. Baseball coaches
go to the Area Code games, where
they find many of their recruits.
Tennis coaches attend the hardcore
under-17 and under-I8 tournaments.

And sometimes the coaching sUff
just spots them. Men's volleyball
found out about Kevin Morrow, an
opposite, when he came lu watch his

older brotfier Scott play midfdte
blocker for the Bruins last season.

"The dad kept bringing the 6-foot-
9 kid to the matches," Bruin head
coach Al Scates said. "It was kind of
hard not to notice him."

The UCLA athletic department
also receives over 100 letters a week
from high school students wanting to
compete for UCLA. Often these let-
ter are accompanied by highlight
tapes. That's how men's basketball
head coach Steve Lavin stumbled
upon one of his top recruits.

"They were watching the tape and
the kid was really good,"
Sondheimer said. "It was one of
those cases when everyone else
missed on him."

That was also how Scates came
upon Jonathan Acosta, a 64bot-4
outside hitter from Puerto Rico. "He
sent us tape, and I was very
impressed with him," Scates said.

The men's volleyball team, with
12 recruits, pulled in possibly their
best recruiting dass ever. Most of the
class also signed in the fall before the
Bruins won their 18th title in May

"I don't know why," Scates said.
"Maybe because they want to play at
UCLA and win national champi-
onships and get a great education."

The coaches and their staff only
look at the top ninth- and lOth-
graders in the country. They are
tracked into the 1 Ith grade and offi-
cial recruitment begins Sept. I of
their junior year in high school.

"Usually by the end of summer
coaches know who they want,"
Sondheimer said. "We get letters
from seniors in high school, but by
1 2th grade it's 100 late"
Po r mal r ec r u i t in g b e gin s July I of

senior year. This is when athletes are
invited to go on recruiting trips to
UCLA. They are taken to a game or
match, shown the dorms and the
fields, and introduced to the team.
This is where UCLA gets them.

"We have a lot going for us,"
Sondheimer said. "Few schools can
match us academically, athletically
and socially."

With its combination of great ath-
letics, the sunny Southern California
weather and the excitement of L.A.,
for many athletes seeing UCLA is
love at first si^t. This is what hap-
pened to Olympian Natalie Williams
of the women's basketball team.

Heavily recruited by USC, she
was brought by the Trojans to
UCLA to watch a game which pitted
USC against the Bruins. Williams
liked UCLA so much that she
returned twice; once on a recruiting
trip and then permanently to play
basketbaN wearing the blue and gold.

The youth sports camps that
UCLA holds every summer are
another way in whidi future Bruins
are spotted. Volleyball first learned
of outside hitter Gray Garret when
he came to a summer camp. "Gray
came to camp when he was a junior,"
Scates said. "He's gotten a lot
stronger since then."

Forward Maylana Martin, who
starred for four years on the
women's basketball team before
graduating last year, also came to
one such camp. It was there that she
got to know the coaches and had a
chance to showcase W talent, long
before regular recruits could.

So ahhou^ there are many ways
to get noticed by UCLA coaches,
only an elite few will hecnme Bruins.

Prospects for UCLA career
k good for new recruit

DIARY: Softball player
says UCLA is best place
for athletics, academics

Choosing which college to
attend is probably one of the
most difficult dedsions I
have ever had to make. Not only is it
stressful, but it is also very confus-
ing. There are
so many differ-
ent colleges
around that
finding one
that suited me
best seemed
impossible.

While
deciding which
school 1 would
attend, I had to
ask myself
many ques- ,

tionslike: '. v ^: ••

Could I be happy here? Would I be
able to get a good job with my
degree? How would 1 adjust to the
college life? Since I am an athlete, I
also had to consider the athletic pro-
gram and what it has to offer me as
a student-athlete.

When I took my recruiting trip to
UCLA I was constantly observing
my surroundings. I had taken three
other recruiting trips but when I got
on tfie UCLA campus I immediate-
ly fdl in k>ve with it At that nK>ment%r
I knew that UCLA was foe me.

Althou^ I was on a recruiting
trip for softbaH. I was also very conr —

cemed about the academic aspect. I
had already been previously
informed about UCLA from my
older sister, Seilala Sua, a shot-put-
ter who will be in her fifth year at
UCLA. When the opportunity
arose to go to UCLA I decided it
was too good to pass up.

UCLA had fit the mold I had set
for my college. It offers so many dif-
ferent majors and getting a degree
from UCLA says a lot about you. I
just remember how comfortable I
fdt when I was on campus. The
campus was just beautiful and
everything seemed to be located in a
convenient place.

Since I am coming all the way
from Rorida I also had to consider
the distance factor. I had many
opportunities to go to a Florida
school but I wanted to go away to
school and be independent. Of
course I would miss my family and
it will probably be difficult for the
first couple of months but that
would have happened anywhere.

My recruiting trip was so amaz-
ing because I really got to know the
softball team. 1 have to admit I was
very intimidated by the whole
"UCLA softball tradition," but after
getting to know everyone I knew
that I could not have chosen a better
team to play for. The giris treated
me as in were equal and not just a
recruit, and the coadies are die best
in the country.

There are not a bt of universities
that encompass both the academic

Freshmen can find niche in intramural, club

• If

teams

COLUMN: Athletic groups
make UCLA manageable
while offering competition

So, freshmen, you want to be a
Bruin? Step one: figure out
what it is that you like to do.
— Not only does UCLA have seem-
ingly millions
of people and '
thousands of
classes, there
are just as
many niches
for you to
chose from.

I'm not say-
ing you should
join every orga-
nization. I only
suggest that if
you have an
interest, you

should follow it. And one of the
most rewarding experiences -
assuming you have a penchant for
athletics - is getting involved in the
UCLA sports community.

UCLA athletics stretch far
beyond its 2 1 varsity teams: it
includes everything from co-ed
intramural volleyball to club hockey.

Christina
Teller

If you weren't this year's hottest
recruit, that's okay; there's still a
vast variety of opportunities for you.

"The best decision that I made
during my second year was to join
the club lacrosse team," third-year
political science student Victoria
Bohannon said. "Not only did I get
in pretty good shape and learn a
new sport, I made some great - . .
friends. ...: •>:,

" I was able to be a part of a team
again, and I found people to look up
to and to count on," she added.

Because of the caliber of both
academics and athletics, many col-
lege students sacrifice varsity
opportunities at other colleges in
order to indulge their minds. At
least that's what they tell their rela-
tives. ;•,■,• ,.■■:•:.:■■';■'■ ^./ V

At only the best universities is it
common to hear that so-and-so
"would be on the team if he went to
another school." The ability and
desire of many students is impres-
sive.

Don't believe me? Just check out
next quarter's IM basketball league.
On any given night you will find a
multitude of both men's and
women's teams battling it out oh the
court, not for a national champi-
onship or a chance to forego their

last two years of eligibility, but sim-
ply for the win.

A high school varsity athlete
myself, when I came to UCLA it
was very clear that the only blue and
gold jersey I would don would be
the one I'd wear in the student sec-
tion of Pauley Pavilion. In order to
answer my craving for the competi-
tion and team unity that had been a
part of my life since I was five, I
joined a group from my dorm floor
and played IM volleyball.

For those who aren't
out for blood, there are

levels that are mo/e
- recreation based.

I was playing my favorite sport
with people who loved it as much as
I did and who challenged me athleti-
cally. A and B level UCLA IM
sports are not your average recre-
ational team. These people know
how to play, and they want to win.

For those who aren't out for
blood, there are levels that are more

recreation based. •

"It was great to be able to get
back into sports in a casual way with
people who just wanted to have
fun," said Cory Putman, a third-
year psychology student.

The best part about playing IM
sports was that I was on a team with
girls I had played against during my_
previous two club volleyball seasons.
Through this experience, UCLA
became a little smaller for me.

Participation in IM or club sports
drastically shrinks the size of the
UCLA community. Meeting new
people is so much better when you
are doing something you enjoy , ^
together.

"Through being involved in a
club team, you develop a great sense
of pride to know that you represent
the University of California Los
Angeles." third-year psychology stu-
dent Nicole Everett said. "Being
part of a club team also really makes
the university feel a lot smaller. Our
team feels like a really close group
of friends, almost like a family."

Maybe after participating in a
sport here you will get to know your
neighbor's best friend's $on's cousin
Joe, next time you're asked. It
broadens your circle and shrinks
UCLA.

1: Beyond the enjoyment of pursu- -^
ing one's own athletic ability is the ^
respect you develop from watching
awesome talent recruited by UCLA
..every year.

From the seats of the Rose Bawl
and Pauley Pavilion, history is made
right in front of your eyes. If you're
lucky enough, you'll even see J ohn

Wooden at the home basketball
games. ''

The UCLA tradition of excel-
lence is repeated year after yeac^
With five more championships
accrued this year alone, UCLA
padded its lead among colleges for
most NCAA titles won. Even those
who swear they aren't Bruin fans are
roped into watching UCLA duke it
out during March Madness. ^

Whether it's women's rugby or
ultimate Frisbee, UCLA offers an
athletic venture for your liking.

Don't be intimidated by the size
of the school. There's something
here for everyone. -

Still want to be a Bruin? Step two:
pursue your interest and get
involved.

Fans watch Kobe Bryant outside of Staples Center after
the Lakers' NBA championship victory on )tjrW 1 9th.

Daily Bruin Staff . I ,, = i*., ;

It took a long 12 years for Los Angeles to bring a
major professional sports title back to the City of
Angels.

But it took seemingly only 12 milliseconds for the
fans of the Los Angeles Lakers, including many UCLA
students, to erupt in a fervor that hadn't been seen in
Southern California for a long time.

As the Lakers grabbed the lead late in the fourth
quarter on June 19th against the Indiana Pacers in
game six of the NBA Finals at the Staples Center, near-
ly 20,000 fans standing just outside the arena and mil-
lions of others citywide held their breath before break-
ing out into celebration.

"Three ... two ... one. The Lakers are the World
Champions!" exclaimed Lakers broadcaster Chick
Hearn as the Lakers prevailed, 1 16-1 11.

the lockeroom. bonfires erupted just 50
feet from the walls of Staples Center.

A peaceful celebration once charac-
terized by the sound of honking horns
soon turned into a lawless mess epito-
mized by the sirens of police and fire-
fighters.

And while the streets surrounding
the Staples Center grew more frisjuieas
the excitement of winning grew; the
bars, restaurants, apartments and dor-
mitories of Westwood also felt much of
that same fervor. ^ J^'^ --crst: .

Screams of joy could be heard
throughout campus as students, having
jusl finished final exams, became even
more relieved as their men in purple
and gold won.

"I love L.A.!" yelled the large Bruin

crowd as they emptied out of the
Westwood bars and restaurants and
into the streets just seconds after the
Lakers' win.

An estimated 200 revelers roamed
^he streets of Westwood late into the
night, tossing garbage cans and bottles
out into the street, nearly hitting sever-
al vehicles. Many students taunted
police, who were placed on a tactical
alert as a melee broke out on Gayley
Avenue. The activity, however, paled in
comparison to that of downtown Los
Angeles.

But the focus of the night was cele-
bration and UCLA students were a
large part of that. With the likes of
Magic Jo*hnson showing up on campus
regularly throughout the year and
Bryant enrolled in UCLA Italian class-
es, many Bruins typically sway their
affection toward the "Showtime"
Lakers - both of the 1980s and of the

present. <■'■.■■■■ -'>

"Even though (Pacer guard) Reggie
Miller is from UCLA, I still love my
Lakers!" said junior Rebecca Jones.

The overwhelming ~~
sentiment of UCLA and
the city of Los Angeles,

favored the Lakers.

Not since 1995, when UCLA defeat-
ed Arkansas in men's basketball for the
NCAA Championship, had Westwood
seen the crazy fanfare that occurred
just moments after the Lakers won ,
their seventh NBA title.

"It was unbelievable," graduate

Stephanie Leonard said of the celebra-
tion back in 1995. "This (party) isn't
even dose to back then."

But despite the jubilation of many,
there were a few Bruins who weren't
happy with the outcome - mainly
Pacers fans. '■'..]:.., ■. ' '- . '

"The Pacers should have won," said
senior Jake Cooper, an Indiana fan for
over 10 years, "it's all part of a conspir-
acy.'*

Still, the overwhelming sentiment of
UCLA and the city of Los Angeles,
favored the Lakers.
^ "I knew the Lakers were going to
win the titled" Leonard said. "It was just
a question of when."

Others merely worried about how
nniuch to celebrate the NBA W orld
Championship.

"I've been partying all week long,"
graduate Danny Ben-Moshe said.

.While it seemed as though the

Lakers were going to capture the title
entering the playoffs, the squad was
pushed to the limit by the Sacramento
Kings and the Portland Trailblazers. In
the decisive game seven against the
Blazers, the Lakers overcame a 15-
point fourth quarter deficit to make it
to the NBA Finals.

"The Lakers are incrediljle," Ben-
Moshe said. "I wish our school could
Create such excitement."

While UCLA garnered five national
titles last year, it seems the Bruins need
to win a football or basketball title to
have another excuse to party in the
strcc. ^rWestwood. *

But that shouldn't be a problem,
according to current Bruin Jesse
Smith.

'TBonlOiink we'll have to worry
about stuff to celebrate. With Kobe an^i
Shaq, the Lakers will keep on winning
and we'll keep on cheering."

UNION: Workers express
discontent with practice
of 'casual employment'

By David King

Daily Bruin Contributor

Pamphlets for the UCLA
Conference Center at Lake
Arrowhead paint it as peacerul and
relaxing - but many of its employees
describe it differently.

Some employees, such as grounds
keepers and kitchen staff, disagree
with the university's discouragement
of unionization and the practice of
"casual employment," in which
employees are fired for a small peri-
od of time so the employer doesn't
have to pay benefits a career employ-
ee would receive.

A housekeeper at the conference

center who wished to remain anony-
mous said despite working six days a
week all year long, she has not yet
received full-time or career employee
status.

"At this point, I've been here six
years. Ldeserve to be full-time," she
said.

The center is used for various con-
ferences and functions for UCLA
staff.

Nancy Noble, the director of the
conference center, denied the work-
er's allegations.

"We don't have situations where
we aren't following the policies that I
know of," Noble said. "We treat all
our employees equally.

"Right here, we're isolated from
campus, so we hope that we try and
address every situation that the work-
ers bring to us."

Casual employment practices by
the university are not uncommon,

according to Jose Hernandez, an
organizer for the American
Federation of State, County, and
Municipal Employees, the union that
is working to organize workers at the
facility.

"The majority of people up there
are casual employees," Hernandez
said, referring to the roughly 80 ser-
vice employees at Lake Arrowhead.
"They are basically keeping people
as casual to not give them benefits
(and) vacation time."

Noble denied allegations of
improper employment practices at
the conference center. She said con-
fusion may arise because of the
nature of employment, which has
varying workloads during different
seasons.

"We are a little different here,
because we are truly seasonal, so our
people who work in grounds we hire
from March to November," Noble

said. "We do have some people who
have been with us for a long time also
working these sort of seasonal jobs."

She added that seasonal employ-
ees, particularly in the housekeeping
department, work less in the summer
months, not more.

"They go down to between 20 to
30 hours a week, and sometimes less
than that," Noble said.

But the housekeeper said she has
worked more hours this summer
because many departments have
fewer employees.

"We're understaffed, we're over-
worked and we're tired," she said.

As a casual employee, she said she
is periodically fired and re-hired by
the university, and expects to be fired
for three days this September.

Another housekeeper, who also
wished to remain anonymous, said
administrators recen^^ presented
employees with an agreement in

which they would agree to work
every Saturday.

Because she did not sign the agree-
ment, the housekeeper said she will
not receive her tip check - a portion
of the total tips received at the center.

But Noble said the paper was only
a clarification of the employees'
existing contract, and having them
sign the agreement was simply a way
to ensure that the workers were
aware of the stipulations of their con-
tract.

The stipulation was made after
several workers protested their work
hours by saying they weren't aware
they had to work Saturdays though it
was in their contract. Noble said.

"We go strictly by our hiring
agreements," she said. "We just
wanted to make sure they knew (this
policy)."

Council members dash
In appointment process

USAC President, committee's
views conflict over selection of
student appointees to boards

ByMdodyWang

Daily Bruin Contributor

The Undergraduate Students Association
Council has appointed the Budget Review
Director and Finance Committee Chair for the
upcoming year, but members still struggle to
appoint one of two undergraduate representa-
tives to the Associated Student s of UCLA
Board of Directors.

The Budget Review Director is responsible
for allocating set funds to various student
groups at the beginning of the year, while the
Finance Committee Chair allocates funds for
specific events throughout the year.

;ESS£ POmiR/CMy Brum SeoKV Sijff

Resident Eliiabcth Houston has faced
criticism over her appointment decisions.

ASUCLA's board of directors makes financial
decisions involving the association.

The council appointed Marykay Tsuji, a
Jlflh-year political science and East Asian stuct
ies student, and Janet Quindara, a third-year
undeclared student, to the offices of Budget
Review Director and Finance Committee
Chair, respectively.

Council members unanimously appointed
Phyllis Feng, a fifth-year American Literature
and Culture and Asian American studies stu-
dent, as one of the ASUCLA Board representa-
tives, but the council could not agree on who to
appoint as the second representative.

"(Feng's) interview was fabulous," said
USAC President Elizabeth Houston. "She just
blew everyone away."

The USAC president is the only council
member who can nominate applicants to be
voted on by other council members. The appli-
cant must receive a majority vote from the
council to be appointed.

The president is advised by the
Appointments Review Committee, which is
headed by Internal Vice President Elias Enciso
and consists of General Representative Ryan
Bulatao and Facilities Commissioner Steve
Davey.

At the June 9 USAC meeting, Houston nom-
inated Joseph Manko, a fourth-year political
science and history student for the ASUCLA
board position, but the council voted him down.
Manko noted leadership experience through

HEALTH: Violations force popular
restaurant closed; sewage, roach
problems cited by investigators

By Dtiarshani Dharmawardcna

Daily Bruin Senior Staff

As UCLA graduates and sports fans prepared
to celebrate in We stwood earlier this montb. the
Department of Health Services and
Environmental Health closed down Madison's
Bar and Grill, a popular student locale on Broxton
Avenue. .

Health inspectors shut down the restaurant
because of cockroach infestation and a sewer
drainage problem, according to Adam Rocke, the
West Area Environmental Services manager with-
in the Bureau of District Environmental Services.

development," he said.

The inspectors discovered the violations during
an unannounced, routine examination of the facil-
ity on June 16.

**^We have basically a zero-tolerance policy
when it comes to a vermih infestation," RckJcc
said. "If we see live vermin in the facility in an
amount that shows there is an infestation, we will
close them down."

According ta-1<ocke, inspectors determine
whether an infestation is occurring within an-
establishment if they sec significant amounts of
vermin in the surroundings.

Madison's manager, Leigh Slawner, agreed
with Rocke's assessment for the closure, but want-
ed to clarify the terms used in the reasoning.

"Any kind of pipe that's damaged, no matter
where it is, is called sewage," he said. "!f the pipe
in the toilet leading to the bathrooms breaks

UCLA hires 24-year-old
professor

UCLA mathematician Terence Tao, 24, will
be promoted to full professor on July 1.

Tao - who teaches freshman calculus and
graduate courses - specializes in a theoretical
field called harmonic analysis, an advanced
form of calculus that us^s physics equations. He
also deals with non-linear partial differential
equations and algebraic geometry, an entirely
xlilTer ent field from harmonic analysis.

One of Tao's proofs of a problem in harmon-
ic analysis consists of more than 50 pages.
Along with two colleagues, Tao obtained the
most precisely known estimate of the size of a
particular geometric dimension in Euclidean
space. - -^ _ — _ ,.^:___A_._.

Tao, who was learning calculus and entering
international mathematics competitions by age
1 1, earned his Ph.D. from Princeton University
at 21 and joined the UCLA's mathematics
department the same year.

He has received two national fellowships this

past year - from the Packard
Foundation and the Clay
Mathematics Institute.

Bruin Democrats hold
fundraising event

The Bruin Democrats held its First Annual
Alumni and Friends Fundraising Reception on
June 22 at the Brentwood home of UCLA alum-
ni and professor Neal Kaufman .
_ The event sought to encourage public service
and bring together current and former
Democrats at UCLA.

More than 45 alumni attended, including
Jane Harman, former Congresswoman and for-
mer UCLA professor; Paul Koretz,
Democratic nominee for State Assembly, and
former Bruin Democrats President, and Gill
Garcetti, L.A. District Attorney and UCLA
Law Alumnus .

Harman, Koretz and Garcetti spoke about
the importance of student political participation
and at)out their time at UCLA.

Lane Sherman, the mother of

U.S. Congressman Brad

Sherman, also attended the event.

Assemblymember Sheila Kuehl was

honored with the Bruin Democrats' "First

Annual Contributions to UCLA Award." Her

staff accepted the award in her place.

Westwoodl-shiil slore
to close soon ~^^

T-shirt retailer Jazz'd is closing its doors after
19 years of business in Westwood Village, with
owner Tim Hall citing low sales and an econonv
ic slump in the village as reasons for the closure.

Jazz'd specializes mainly in novelty T-shirts,
but devotes a section of the store to UCLA mer-
chandise. Store employee Betty Mejia said stu-
dents frequented the store to buy UCLA T-
shirts that are sold for less than their counter-
parts at the UCLA Store.

"Many students think the store at UCLA is
too expensive, so we offered them the same
items at much cheaper prices," Mejia said.

Hall offered some suggestions to the future
tenants of the space at 1069 Broxton Avenue.

"It would be nice if they opened a specialty
bookstore," Hall said. "Overall, I am hopeful
about the village, but I just want to concentrate
on my other businesses."

LGBT center director
receives award ^~^

Ronni Sanlo, director of the Lesbian, Gay,
Bisexual, Transgender Campus Resource
Center was one of three people to receive the
Chancellor's Fair and Open Academic
Environment Award.

The award, which is given every other year, is
seldom given to someone involved in student
affairaiT . . — ■ . -,- , . ; ■.;■ ■ . v ■- ■ ■ ■

Sanlo was nominated^for tfie award by the
Lambda Student Graduate Network and
Robert Naples, assistant vice chancellor of stu-
dent affairs as well as campus organizations.

Facilities Management works to repair the damage caused by one of their workers.

Error causes damage in Kinsey

POWER: Computers,
appliances fried by
too much voltage

manager of crafts and alter-
ations for Facilities
Management. He added that an
investigation is under way.

By Timothy Kudo

Daily Bruin Sentor Staff

More than one hundred com-
puters and other electrical
devices were damaged in
Kinsey Hall on June 19 after a
facilities maintenance worker
made an error while replacing
the building's transformers.

As part of a campus-wide
upgrade of the high-voltage dis-
tribution system, workers were
replacing an old transformer in
Kinsey when wires were crossed
and a 220-volt surge was sent
through the building, which nor-
mally takes 1 10 volts.

"Somebody made a mis-
take," said Ron Calloway, the

"The great majority

of machines...

had their power

supplies burnt."

■[:'': p. RonCalloway ^ ;;
Facilities Management

Though professors and staff
housed in Kinsey were told to
turn off any electrical devices in
preparation for scheduled
repairs, nearly anything with a
transformer that was plugged
into an electrical socket at the
time of the surge was damaged.

"When power comes into a

computer, the first thing it goes
into is a transformer," Calloway
said. "Even when it's shut off,
you're still feeding voltage into a
computer at a low drain, so
when it got hit with the high volt-
age, it was shorted."

In addition to computers, the
power surge fried everything
from pencil sharpeners and
copiers to surge protectors.

Because the damage was so
extensive, many of Kinsey's
operations were shut down as
professors and staff members
brought in their personal lap-
tops to try and do work.

"It's basically brought the
building to a standstill for pretty
much the entire week," said
Professor William

Schniedewind, the acting chair
of the near eastern languages
and cultures department.

ASUCLA plans major changes
to resolve $1^ million defidt ;

BUDGET: 44 positions to be
eliminated; UCLA Store to rent
mit^iioy ate space for retailers

Daily Bruin Senior Staff

The Associated Students of UCLA are hop-
ing the whopping changes it has planned for
the coming year - including eliminating 44
positions - will return the troubled association
to financial stability.

ASUCLA lost an estimated $ 1.9 million dur-
ing the 1999-2000 school year, falling well
below their previously projected loss of
$83,000. This, combined with severe losses
over the past few years, caused association offi-
cials to realize something drastic had to be
done to patch up ASUCLA's finances.

"This has been a difficult several months,"
said ASUCLA Executive Director Patricia
Eastman at an open forum meeting for
employees on June 13.

"We were still working until the very last
minute ... to minimize the impact of the lay-
offs," she said. "Now, this week, we move on."

As a result, officials unveiled a budget plan
for the coming year that includes several signif-
icant changes to the way ASUCLA does busi-
ness, culminating in a projected surplus of $2
million - a larger surplus than the association
has had in 10 years.

The most substantial change between this
year's budget and last year's is the elimination
of 44 of the association's 254 career positions,
at a savings of $1.8 million.

"These changes are painful, but necessary
for us to continue to serve the UCLA commu-
nity," Eastman said.

According to Eastman, 19 employees were
laid off, as some employees were shuffled
around to other positions and some of the posi-
tions eliminated were already vacant at the
time of the restructuring.

"We believe we can handle the changes with-
out disrupting the operations critical to provid-
ing the required level of service to the campus,"

said Rich Delia, ASUCLA's chief fiiuincial
officer — "^"^ >"-'^~— — - • — ' '■■ ■ - ■ ■ ■'

In addition to saving money through layoffs,
ASUCLA looks to boos.t its bottom line with
increased income from the ailing UCLA Store.

BearWear sales were close to $1 million
under projections this year, making it one of
the main culprits in the association's monetary
troubles. Next year, ASUCLA hopes to almost
double its online BearWear sales and increase
its in-store sales.

"This year, sales grew 50 percent online,"
said Terence Hsiao, ASUCLA director of busi-
ness development.

"We can expect that to continue for a year
or so," he said, adding that the association will
begin to advertise the UCLA Store Web site
more aggressively this year.

Additionally, ASUCLA hopes to save
money by restructuring the UCLA Store floor
plan and leasing out excess space.

In the new plan. Paper Cuts merchandise
will be integrated into the Market and
Essentials departments on the B level of
Ackerman Union, leaving the l,660^uare-
foot Paper Cuts location on A level availid>le to
lease to an outside vendor. —

Also, the Fast Track apparel department
will be moved to where children's apparel is
currently located, freeing up another 3,900
square feet for lease. The magazine section will
no longer be a separate section of the store, but
will be integrated into the main BookZone
area, opening up 1,500 square feet for lease.

Some space in the back of the store current-
ly being used for offices will be converted to
retail space as well.

Extension of IVIetro Rail system
expands route, creates concern

TRANSrT: Opening of three new
subway stations will allow line
to cover nearly 60 miles in L.A.

ByCarofineWoon

DaHy Bruin Contributor

After 14 years and $6.1 billion, the Los Angeles
Metropolitan Transportation Authority celebrat-
ed the opening of its Metro Rail Red Line exten-
sion Saturday, despite objections of a bus riders
advocacy group that wanted a larger share of the

money used to expand
L.A.'s bus system.

Three new subway sta-
tions in North Hollywood,
Universal City and at
Hollywood Boulevard and
Highland Avenue have
been built along the 6.3-mile
extension, expanding the
Metro Rail system to neariy
60 miles between the San
Fernando Valley and L.A.

"Commuters can get
from the valley to down-
town in less than a half an
hour, rain or shine, no mat-

Littman, public relations
director of the MTA. "It's

APPOINTMENTS

From page 1

the Office of Residential Life and the
UCLA Orientation Program on his
application.

- Houston said she believes a majority
of council members did not vote for
Manko because they had already decid-
ed they wanted to appoint Merrick
Pascual, a fiAh-year public policy and
economics student who is also presi-
dent of Samahang Filipino.

"You're not supposed to vole some-
-4)ne down because you have someone
else in mind," Houston said. "It's not
just me who thinks Joe's qualified. A lot
of other people do too. I was disap-
pointed." ^ '

Houston said she was unimpressed
with PasCual during his interview and
felt he could be biased because of his
position in Samahang Filipino.

Ramzi Ajami, one of Houston's
heads of staff, said it would be less like-
ly for Manko to be biased because he is
not involved with a Student Advocacy
Group.

"(Involvement with a SAG) is a real-
ly common thing to be concerned
about," he said, adding that SAGs are
directly affected by the actions of those
appointed.

"Even though you're involved with

a SAG, it doesnt mean you won't get
appointed, but if for some reason the
president feels you will be biased, then
it's a legitimate concern," Ajami said.

But other council members dis-
agreed and strongly supported Pascual.

General Representative Elisa
Sequeira said she hopes to appoint
Pascual because he has shown both ini-
tiative and interest in the p)osition by
talking to current board of directors
Vice Chair Kei Nagao about what it
entails.

'Idpiftseewhat

(Pascual) could be
^ biased about.*^

Elisa Sequeira

USAC general representative

Sequeira said serving on the ASU-
CLA Communications Board during
the 1999-2000 school year provided*
Pascual with the necessary experience
for the ASUCLA position, since the
two boards are closely related.

"I don't see how the fact that he's in
Samahang Filipino makes him biased. I
don't see what he could be biased
about," Sequeira said.

ASUCLA's Board of Directors
does not make any decisions that
directly affect funding for SAGs. Last
year, Cori Shepherd, president of the
African Student Union, was one of the
undergraduate representatives on the
board. ■': . '; ' '.■■

Enciso said the council has had diffi-
culty appointing a second ASUCLA
representative because Houston has
been indecisive with her recommenda-
tions for which candidates she feds the
committee should interview.

Disagreements over the interpreta-
tion of^ the USAC bylaws arose
between council members durinj^ Uie
appointment process. ;*^ *

Enciso said Houston changed her
mind about who she wanted to inter-
view for the positions. He said the day
before the interview, he and Houston
agreed to interview two candidates for
each position, but the next day she
changed her mind and only wanted to
interview one person for each position.

Enciso said he felt it was too late to
cancel some of the interviews, so ARC
interviewed two applicants for each
position as planned.

Houston could not be reached for
comment, ----r- - - .

Council members ' questioned
whether or not the president was
allowed to forward and then de-for-
ward applicants. Because the bylaws do

not specify if this can be done, Houston
interpreted it so that she could change
her mind. But council members over-
turned her decision.

Ajami said because this problem
had never occurred before, the Judicial
Board and the Constitution Review
Committee should ^now clarify the
bylaws.

"I think from an objective stand-
point it was fine, but it has to be cleared
up," Ajami said. :

As a compro mise, the^

cotiricll decided to

send both Manko and

Pascual to the ASUCLA^

retreat ...to be trained

__ for the position. •

Enciso said it is important for ARC
to interview more than one person for
each position since some people who
appear qualified based on their applica-
tion turn out to be unqualified during
the interview.

"I explained to Elizabeth that's why
it was so important to interview more
than one person," Enciso said.

Sequeira said she wished Houston
would nominate more than one candi-
date to be voted on by council so that
the council would not be forced to
accept Houston's decision.

"(Houston) pretty much just wants
us to rubber-stamp her decision,"
Sequeira said.

Because the council did not approve
Manko for the position, Houston
brought Eugene Kuong, a fifth-year
psychology and math student, to the
table to be voted on at the June 20
meeting.

Kuong, who has served as president
of the Association of Chinese"
Americans and as part of the Wooden
Center Board of Governors, was also
voted down by the council.

As a compromise, the council decid-
ed to send both Manko and Pascual to
the ASUCLA retreat, held June 19-21,
to be trained for the board of directors
position.

Houston said she will bring both
candidates back to the table on July S,
and council members will appoint one
of them - adding she is confident she
knows what the outcome will be.

"Everybody knows what's going to
happen; Joe will get voted down and
Merrick will get voted in," Houston
said. "This is not a compromise
because a compromise (involves) two
people. This is me compromising."

TRANSFORMER

From page 3

He added that the extent of the damage,
especially in terms of data loss, may take
months to determine since many professors
have already left for vacations or to do
research.

"Some faculty don't even know what's hap-
pened to their computers," Schniedewind said.

At the Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual and
Transgender Campus Resource Center, four
computers, two printers, three monitors, a
microwave and a clock radio were damaged.

"The only three things that didn't get hit
were the TV and VCR because they weren't
plugged in, and the fax machine because it's
from hell," Slcvcn Lcider, the office manager
at the center said jokingly. "It's brought every-

thing to a screeching halt."

Ronni Sanlo, director of the LGBT center,
wasn't as worried about the articles saved on
her computers as she was about the day-to-day
material her office uses that hadn't been
backed up for months.

"To be honest, I can't even go there," Sanlo
said. "It's not as throat-slitting as it feels, but i
believe it's going to be OK."

To help fix the problem, facilities mainte-
nance called in an outside company. Call One,
that specializes in computer service.

"What we're finding is the great majority of
machines that were damaged had their power
supplies burnt," Calloway said.

As of Monday, Calloway expected nearly all
the repairs to be completed, but he added that
the full extent of the damage would take more
time to determine since many professors are
gone for the summer. .

FINANCES

From page 3

Also, plans are in the works
to lease out a portion of the
BookZone area to a CD retailer.
According to Eastman, a CD
store was rated the hi^est on
the latest Student Union survey
conducted in the spring. —*%■;

ASUCLA ofTicials are hop-
ing to get a new/userfCD retail-
er into Ackerman Union to help
bring foot traffic into the store.
Leasing the space to an outside
vendor is safer for the associa-
tion since the vendor would be
the one who must deal with com-
petition from Westwood Village

merchants and online Mp3 dis-
tribution.

"This has been a

difficult several

months."

Patricia Eastman

ASUCLA director

Also, the association will
move its distribution center
from its off-campus location in
Pico Rivera to an on-campus
location, saving money in rent
and transportation.

"We had good results when
we moved part of the distribu-
tion center back to campus,"
said Keith Schoen, director of
ASUCLA's distribution center.
"The warehousing will remain
off-campus, but we'll need to
rent less space."

Eastman emphasized that
though the financial forecasts
are rosy, the association will still
have to weather some stormy
conditions in the coming year.

"We've got a lot of work to
do in the next six months,"
Eastman said. -

"We still have the same
amount of output, but we have
to get it done in a more efficient
way," she said.

MADISON'S

freshwater or tap water, that's also sewage."

At Madison's, a pipe located under the bar
area failed to drain properly, which caused
inspectors to decide to close the facility.

Slawner said the inspector failed to find cock-
roaches in any food preparation areas. The prob-
lem, Slawner said, remained isolated to an
upstairs back area not associated with food.

"There have never been any cockroaches in
the kitchen or in the bar area," Slawner said.
"She looked for cockroaches elsewhere and
^uld not find any. "

Restaurants closed for vermin infestation
remain shut for 48 hours under departmental
policy, after which an announced re-inspection
occurs to see if the owners have rectified the
problems, Rocke said.

"That gives them some time for pest control to
come in and any residue will have time to kill the
remaining vermin," he said. « . : ... . ■ — —

serve the natural archKecture of (the building),"
Bambadji said.

Because of the closure, Madison's lost rev-
enue that would have been brought by fans com-
ing to watch the Lakers game and the Oscar de la
Hoya vs. Shane Mosley fight, as well as by cele-
brating graduates.

r- "That is the end of our year," Bambadji s^id:
"Our big business year. That's where we take rev-
enue from that weekend and really reinvest it
into the business."

Slawner, while unable to quantify the losSes,
said the business had already invested S 1,500 in
pay-per-view services for that weekend.

Additionally, Slawner said the restaurant's
workers went unpaid for that time.

Even though the broken pipe drained proper-
ly when inspectors returned to Madison's on
June 18, they still found live cockroaches and
decided that the facility was not suiti^yble for oper-
ation, according to Rocke. ;

After the facility reopened on June 20, it
received a "C" from the Health Department.
The department assigns letter grades to food
establishments based on an inspection score
ranging from 70-100 points.

Slawner and co-manager Sacha Bambadji
said they tried their best to prepare the building
for reinspection, but because the closure
occurred on a Friday evening, they had difficulty
in finding a pest-control company.

"(The inspector) found a few living stragglers
after the main pest control people had come
through," Slawner said. "When you have any
kind of problem like this and you do pest control,
a few of them survive and die out gradually." '/

Still emphasizing that structural problems
rather than food preparation violations led to the
closure, both Slawner and Bambadji attributed
Madison's age and location with some of its
problems and its 9 grade. 7^^ -

"You're going to have some general mainte-
nance problems, especially when we try to pre-

"I've got a staff of 10 to 20 peopIC he said.
"As a business, we will survive,obviously, but on
the personal level, I've got bartenders, waitresses
and security people here. All of us didn't work
this weekend."

"They lose in a weekend (two hundred) to
three hundred dollars," Slawner continued.
- Slawner and Bambadji both said they have
taken steps to meet all the standards set by the
health department, including hiring a new pest
control company.

"We've been given a lot more freedom
because of our experience to run this business in
a successful, yet ... safe, healthy and attractive
way, and that's our goal," Bambadji said.

"You have to remember that our grade is only
temporarily a C," Slawner said. "We're confi-
dent we're going back to a B."

Slawner said.Madison's employees and health
department officials have cooperated to reach a
successful end.

"It's not us versus the health department or
sides," he said. "We work with them. The inspec-
tors that came out have been very helpful in
terms of not just pointing out a problem or rec-
ommending to fix a problem, but have been over-
all very supportive and nice people."

Speaking from experience, Rocke said he did
not expect Madison's to reopen with any new
violations.

"We find that facilities that are closed down
have a tendency to dramatically improve, and for
the most part, many of them maintain that level,"
he said. "We're not going to let them open unless
they're in really good shape."

EMPLOYEES

From page 1

She said the conference center is a good
work environment for its employees.

"We have a close working^environment, and
we want everyone to feel appreciated," Noble
said.

But service employees disagree, and suggest
some administration policies are racist towards
the minorities employed.

"If you don't speak the language, you don't
get promoted," the first housekeeper said. "If
you're white, they think you're educated and
better qualified.''^

are," Noble said.

She added that about three of the 1 2 supervi-
sors at the center are non-whites.

Employees such as Bennett also complained
that union representation has been discouraged
by the conference center management.

Because of such discouragement, Bennett
said she now holds union meetings at home,
rather than at work during their off hours.

Hernandez, who has made several trips to
the conference center, agreed with Bennett.

"They want to prevent the union from going

there and talking to people," Hernandez said.

"If they have the right (o talk about the football

game the night before, they also have the right

-to talk about the union ..? — -^--

*They know already who will be assistants or
at the front desk," she continued. "We don't
have hope for another step."

Shirley Bennett, a member of the kitchen
staff, concurred. > .'

Regarding supervisor positions, Bennett
said administrators usually hire people from
outside the conference center, "rather than pro-
mote someone who's here, someone who is
more qualified."

Noble said long-time employees are encour-
aged to apply for promotions, but often don't.
She denied that any discrimination occurs at
the facility. - - ;: ; •

"It just depends on who walks in the door
that's qualified, never mind what color they

"That's what they call interrupting things,"
he continued, referring to administrators.

But Noble said union representatives are
allowed to talk to employees, just not while they
are working. * ; ; " :

"Our only counsel to them was not to talk to
our employees on their work time," Noble said.
"I've had to tell them that repeatedly."

"We've had a horrible time with the unions,"
she added.

Despite such disapproval, Hernandez said*
the union plans to continue pursuing efforts at
the conference center, though he doesn't expect
significant results anytime soon.

"In the end, this is going to be a long labor
struggle,'^ Hernandez said. ,

METRO

From page 3

According to MTA spokesman Ed Scannell,
this new system could cut the travel time of com-
muters across the valley and the L.A. basin by as
much as 25 percent.

"This project is designed to get people, espe-
cially commuters, to their destinations faster," he
said.

The new Red Line stations are also located
near popular tourist destinations including
Mann's Chinese Theatre, the Hollywood Bowl,
Universal City Walk and the North Hollywood
Arts District

"On this new extension, for instance, one of

the stops is Universal City." Scannell said.
"People can just walk right across the street to
Universal Studios or City Walk, And the price is
certainly right - it's only $1.35, compared to the
$7 people would normally have to pay for park-

But with the introduction of the Rapid buses
the MTA will cut limited express bus service in
the Wilshire/Whittier and Ventura corridors, and
critics say these attempts to improve the existing
bus system do not offer an effective solution.

"We were initially very supportive of Rapid
buses," Orosz said. "But the MTA has turned
what was originally a 16-line project into a two-
line system. (They are) only implementing a tiny
little piece of an entire program that the Bus
Riders Union wants to see."

THEATER: Students can
enjoy free concerts at
Hammer Museum, Royce

By Michael Rosen-Molina

Daily Bruin Senior Staff

The school year is over and many
students are home for the summer,
but UCLA never rests for long. The
arts are as active as ever over the
summer months, and those who are
fortunate enough to remain have
their choice of entertainment.

Northern Lights

For entertainment all summer
long. Northern Lights Coffee House
is planning a special series for those
people who will be living, working
and taking classes on and around

campus.

"We're planning a series of one-
act student plays," said Northern
Lights manager Gabor Fabian.
"We're working together with the
theater department to get student
actors involved."

Coordinating the event with
Fabian is Associate Professor Gary
Gardener of the theater depart-
ment, who will organize departmen-
tal involvement throughout the sea-
son. Specifics are not yet available,
but will be announced upon the
series commencement.

Royce Hall

Royce hall is hosting a free con-
cert series by the Henry Mancini
Institute, the summer education
program for the American Jazz
Philharmonic. Beginning July 29
and running until Aug. 19, the six

productions feature 80 new musi-
cians who have received full scholar-
ships to attend the institute.

Hailing from all around the
globe, the college and post-college
level recipients will perform along-
side established musicians like trum-
peter and film composer Terence
Blanchard, conductor 'Bruce
Broughton, Brazilian guitarist Dori
Caymmi and pianist Mike Lang.
KLON-FM Radio will host the
series.

On Sept. 5 at 7 p.m. will be the
Placido Domingo's Operalia 2000 -
The Eighth Annual World Opera
Competition. This performance will
be the final contest with the Los
Angeles Chamber Orchestra con-
ducted by the famous tenor.

THEATER: Indulge newfound
tastes at several arts venues

By Barbara Mcfiuire

Daily Bruin Senior Staff ^ \-' ■,.

College is all about growing up and find-
ing that inner-adult. The transition from
high school to college is somewhat paral-
leled to a transition from the cinemas to the
theatre. As one gets older, it seems as if sud-
denly there is this unwarranted and shock-
ing appreciation for things like the theatre
and arts, that only meant boring with a cap-
ital B in younger years.

This summer is full of fun things to do to
refine and cultivate the growing adult in all
of us.

The Getty Center

The Getty Center, for instance, which
has free parking for college students with a
student ID, offers many intriguing artistic
ventures for those who embrace their new
found love of theiirts.

Running through October 8 is a collec-
tion of photos taken by Eugene Atget titled,
"The Man in the Street: Eugene Atget in
Paris." These photos were taken by Atget in
1890 as a way to document the endangered
aspects of Parisian life and history and now
act as a picture guide to the city of romance.

Also at the Getty, opening August 15 and
showing through November 5, is the exhibi-
tion, "The Queen of Angels." This exhibit
centers on the depiction of the Virgin Mary

in the Middle Ages and the Renaissance.
The work of many different artists, such as
Gentile de Fabriano and Simon Bening, will
be shown in 18 illuminated manuscript
books and leaves.

Another interesting exhibit at the Getty is
"Making a Prince's Museum: Drawings for
the Late- 18th-century Redecoration of the
Villa Borghese in Rome." This exhibit runs
through September 17 and features 34 orig-
inal drawings by Antonio Asprucci, an
architect who helped to renovate the 200-
year-old Villa Borghese in Rome. The draw-
ings are set up in a fashion that resembles
the way the villa and its rooms actually exist
in Italy. . .

Shakespearian Theatre

This summer, Shakespeare seems to be
quite popular. "Shakespeare Feslival/LA"
is having its 17th season from June 29
through July 30 and will be showing its pro-
duction of "Much Ado About Nothing."
This version has taken the timeless piece up
to modem day, while at the same time giving
it a '30s and '40s comical twist.

Another Shakespeare piece being per-
formed this summer is "The Taming of the
Shrew," showing through September 24 at
the Theatricum Bontanicum Summer
Repertory in Topanga. The play is being
reenacted in the outdoor amphitheater on
Sunday nights at 4 p.m. - a great idea for a
beautiful summer evening.

Taper, Too' resumes after hiatus with double-billing

ttKStoS (ourlesy (it Mark Iap<'' forurr,

THEATER: Plays exploring trials of life,
adolescence through Latina/o-Chicana/o
eyes starts off season of new productions

By Barbara McGuire

Daily Bruin Senior Staff ^ -

The game of life is filled with many surprises that can throw
one off course, and sometimes a curve ball is even thrown in,
making things even more difficult to deal with. Kor most peo-
ple, these curve balls are nothing more than a broken heart or
a speeding ticket, but for some, they are things like getting
drafted into the Vietnam war or growing up shamefully as a
Latino in a white community.

"Black Butterfiy, Jaguar Girl, Pitiata Woman and Other
Superhero Girls, Like Me" and 'Drive My Coche," two new
plays on a double bill at The Actors' Gang in Hollywood,
focus on such curve balls as well as everyday issues. Part of the
Taper, Too" 2000 season, these plays are the first to be per-
formed under the "Taper, Too" after its five-year hiatus.

"Taper, Too" is a branch of the Mark T^per Forum which
considers itself a testing grounds for new and somewhat
experimental plays. "Taper, Too" productions allow for a
more intimate setting and closer interaction between the audi-
ence and the actors on-stage, with Just as interesting shows.

The first play, "Black Butterfly," created and directed by
Luis Alfaro, follows the "growing-up" years of five Latinc
teenagers in East Los Angeles. Each faces various challenges,
some dealing with their culture and nationality, some dealing

story on the writings of East Los Angeles poets Alma
Cervantes, Sandra C. Munoz and Marisela Norte.

The teenagers' problems are intermixed with comical
moments, such as the embarrassment of one of the girls when
the most popular boy at school calls her and hears in the back-
ground that her family is watching the Spanish channel. Other
scenes that make the audience grin include one in which one
of the teens is at a dance trying to get the boy she likes to
notice how "great" of a dancer she is by attempting some
obnoxious moves. Justina Muchado, Christina Malpero,
Zilah Mendoza, Carla Jimenez and Cristina Frias play the
five teenage girls. They all have their Latino culture in com-
mon, though each exhibits a wide range of personalities.

Such comical, yet realistic issues are brought up alongside
more serious "curve balls." One of the teens, for instance,
experiences the death of her father. Another deals with the
reality of being slapped by her mother in the face and the
strength that it takes for her to forgive her mother and under-
stand what she was going through.

For the most part, however, "Black Butterfly" is upbeat,
with each girl beaming girl-power (not the Spice Girl kind),
and realizing that she should be proud of who she is. As the
girls grow up, for each year they are older they stop and shout
out various phrases that teens at such an age would say such
as. "I don't think so," and "Whatever!" Such transitional
moments remain light-hearted and comical no matter what
the prior scene absolves.

"Drive My Coche," though taking place in the 70s, focuses
on the stresses of adolescence as well. Written by Roy Conboy
and directed by Diane Rodriguez, the play has an intriguing
beatnik club teel to it. I he mam character. Bill, played by

MUSIC: GwenStefani
lone woman as female
acts underrepresented

By Judy Pale

Daily Bruin Senior Staff ^

The heat was on, the lineup was
hot, the meat was cookin', the crowd
was massive, but, surprisingly, the
concert ended up cold.

Yes, this year it was bigger, longer
and louder. And with that under
consideration the concert should
have been a day-long, hulking, sun-
drenched, beer-soaked, hormone-
charged, rockin' heaven for rock
fans.

But it was just nowhere near that.

Instead, KROQ's annual Weenie
Roast offered 50,000 fans a numb-
ing 12 hours of bleak modem rock at
Anaheim's Edison International
Field.

Over the past eight years, the
Weenie Roast has been known to be
bigger and badder each time, but
this year it was kinder and gentler
than ever before, resembling Lilith
Fair more than anything else. ,

It wasn't difficult for Third Eye
Blind to sedate the audience with its
complete lack of flair and aggres-
siveness. Lead singer Jenkins does-
n't have the greatest voice as is, and
one too many times he slipped into
an annoying whine that sent thirsty
throngs out of their seats and made
it increasingly difficult to navigate
the concession area.

Creed crooned too many sound-
alike songs until even the band's fans
got nauseated. But the fireworks
compensated for the band's unex-
plosive music.

Ozzy Osbourne reached one of
his lowest points for someone who
had once played such an integral
role in one of heavy rock's seminal
bands. He lost the visceral and meta-
physical elan he had helming Black
Sabbath during those awesome peak
years.

Apparently, Ozzy rates his solo
stuff much as we do, feeling com-
pelled to irKiude a Black Sabbath
reunion in his performance.

From several key acts it seem's
like if you've seen it once, you've
seen it all. For example, if Cypress
Hill is tired of rap or has simply lost
the creative spirit for the music that
brought them to the forefront, why
beat the listeners to death by revisit-
ing old territory with the same rou-
tine over and over again?

The Offspring, however, did
deliver a solid performance but
never really ascended the innovative
plateau. Sure, they've still got the
chops, but their mild sermonizing
and positive messages, admirable as
they may be, are beginning to sound
a little, uh, parental.

Godsmack's u'nbearable perfor-
mance proved there -shouldn't be
any more room for inspired imita-
tors in metal. Anaheim's own Lit
and opening act Incubus really did-
n't offer anything memorable but its
sets were still strong enough to make
Third Eye Blind look like a sister
group.

In this day of pseudo-macho,
kitcheiMink, smarmy acts dominat-
ing the Weenie Roasi, ihe women
were not forgotten. The huge video cert.

screen's camera scanned the crowd
encouraging the females to repre- _
sent with bare breasts. Finally, the
crowd began to generate a raucou» ^
ambiance when No Doubt's Gwen
Stefani, the lone woman on the bill, ___
whipped up a schizo, bouncy set of
ska-inflected rock. With her unique
riot girl-meets-fragile babe personal-
ity, she displayed a broad palette of
emotions, styles and sounds through
her dynamic ballads, testosterone-
fueled rock, diaphanous slow rock,
and a dash of power pop.

It also helped that Scott Weiland
from Stone Temple Pilots was as
eccentric and spontaneous as ever,
appearing in a bight red wig and a
tiny silver dress, making a point to
the crowd that he wanted to show
cohesion with underrepresented .
women. < ,

Despite the singer*s much-publi-
cized trials and tribulations with
drugs, he and the band have not lost
their ability to tantalize the crowd
with clarity and vibrancy. ► '

The spell was been cast by the A
undisputed leader of the night,
Korn. Overloads of angst-ridden
teens everywhere released their frus-
tration and used their heavy music
as a punching bag for their daily
lives, a temporary antidote to their
bitterness.

Lead singer Jonathan Davis's
pained vocals rode high above the
quintet's creepy metallic grind, as it
engendered a kind of narcotic
mood, a condition seething with the
vulgar frustration of the young and
disillusioned.

However, Korn didn't misplace
its rage in a wash of complicated

indulgences, and it hadn't forgotten

the importance of humor in such
bizarre and monstrous musical
expression.

On the other hand, Davis's good
pal Fred Durst of Limp Bizkit was
unable to initiate a lively response
from the crowd in his attempts to
recreate the pandemonium at last
year's Woodstock. And, boy, did
Durst try hard. He was as restless as
a caged leopard, hyping the crowd
to jump and "bum rush the stage"
with his lame rendition of House of —
Pain's "Jump Around." And during'
"Nookie" he evoked fans to break
through the security barricade.

The crowd's reluctance to turn
annihilative demonstrated that Fred
has lost his trademark ability to
incite a teeming horde to hostility
like he did last summer. Maybe secu-
rity was doing a better job, or maybe _.
some people are sick of Durst's typi-
cal anthem of anti-authoritarianism.

As the eccentric card in this year's •
lineup, Moby bore the challenging
mantle of bring the only electronic
act. His performance on^' proved
that the entire genre's mettle and live
viability was greeted with indiffer-
ence of tens of thousands of kids.
Moby lost the crowd's attention by
running around and doing a little of
everything and nothing, while his '
venomous comments about frat
boys lowered the energy leveK

All in all, the Weenie Roast did do
a good j(^ of being an open-fhinded
festival, providing a little something
for anyone and nothing for every-
body. It's just too bad the quality of
music and atmosphere had to be sac-
nficed for the immensity ofihe con-

love who constantly plays mind
games with him. Kathy serves as a
fantasy world for Bill up until his
draft status is altered to I A.
Suddenly her character's attitude
takes a sharp turn and presents
Bill with the reality of war and life.

"Drive My Coche" combines
fun with serious issues just as^
"Black Butterfly" does. The game
of love is examined, as well as the
stresses of the Vietnam war and
its effects on all the people
involved.

The double bill provides an
intcrest^ng night. The differing
stories of "Black Butterfly " and
"Drive My Coche" provide some-
thing for everyone, both to enjoy
and resonate with while at the

then a freshman phenom at the College
of the Sequoias, and when his sdiool
and UCLA faced off, Hoffman almost
sin^e-handedly destroyed the Bruins.
After the game Reichle came up to him
and said, "I want you to play for our
team.

Play for UCLA? It was Hoffman's
dream come true. Just one problem.

"I told him, M would love to play for
UCLA - but I promised the coach here
I would stay for two years,'" Hoffman
said.

Reidile was silent for a moment,
and then said, "Son, I'm gonna save
your scholarship." / ; -

When Hoffman came to UCLA one
year later, he found a scholarship wait-
ing for him. "Art would always stand
by you," he said.

Reichle was tough as well. For many
years he owned ranches and ran sum-
mer camps for city kids to learn how to
live in the forest and care for horses.
Gary Anglen, a former pitcher and
ranch worker, recalled one time when
Reichle turned around on his horse to
take a picture of those behind him
when the horse budced and threw him
off- hard. / - * ■

"Art didn't say a word, though we
knew he was hurting. He just got back
on his horse and rode on," Anglen said.
'it turned out he broke three ribs. He
spent two weeks in bed, even though it
was supposed to be six, and ran his
ranch from there."

He was strong to the end. When
Wooden heard Reichle was ill he gave
him a phone call.

"They told me he was too weak to
talk. Then I heard a voice say. 'Who is
JhalT^When they told him it was me, he
laid, i'll Ulk. I want to talk to
Johnny,'" Wooden said. "I got to share
a few words with him before he left to
go to a more wonderful place."

And to his kids, Reichle was just the
best father.

'We've heard about the privilege of
Art Reichle as a friend. Well, guess
what. I get to talk about having him as
a father," a tearful Richard Reichle
said. "I bet you he was a better father
than a friend. Actually, there's no bet
Decision's been made. God knows he
was an awesome father."

That day, 75 people gathered and
remembered the things that made Art
Reichle memorable: his penchant for
giving out nicknames; his desire to help
children grow into good people; his
habit of giving so much that he was
known for trying to out-give others.

And they remembered what Reichle
believed in - loyalty to friends and hon-
oring your word. They were values he
both lived and taught, and his lessons
are ones those he loved will never for-
get. But maybe that's because Reichle
never let them forget that he'd always
be there for them.

At the memorial, Anglen finished
his tribute to his former coach and
mentor by recalling something Reichle
said to him before he died:

"There'll always be a saddle, there'll
always be a horse, and when you get to
heaven, we'll finish that ride." .

• • •

Reichle is survived by his wife,
Ruth, 82; son Art Sr., 54; daughter
Denise Margarit, 49; son Ridiard, 47;
and granddaughter Chanel Rachel, 2.

KAPONO

From page 12

enrolled at UCLA during the Spring
Quarter and took finals. He partici-
pated in on-campus workouts for pro-
fessional teams to allow scouts to
gauge where his skills would put him
on the draA charts. He did not attend
the NBA Pre-DraA Camp in Chicago
June 6-9, though former teammates
Jerome Moiso and JaRon Rush, who
remain in the draft, did.

**I made an effort during the spring
to continue my progress toward a
degree and I'm going to summer
school, too," Kapono said. "The bot-
tom line is I want to come back and
play for coach Lavin and do what I
can to help us be a successful team this
season."

Kapono was one of only two
Bruins, alongside co-captain Earl
Watson, to start all 33 games last year.
His 16 ppg scoring average was the
highest by a freshman in the Pac-IO
last season and was the second highest
single-season mark in UCLA fresh-
man history, behind Don MacLean's
18.6 in 1988-89.

"We had a lot of confidence that he
was going in the first round, and I'm
surprised he's not going, but it's
Jason's choice," said his father, Joe
Kapono. "He just wants some polish-
mg.

Other UCLA records set by the
Lakewood, Calif, native induded the
single-season three-point (made)
record with 82, breaking the old
school record of 78, set by Tracy
Murray in 1992. His end of the season
honors were capped by the CBS

SportsLine National Freshman of the
Year and the Pac-IO co-Freshman of
Jhc Year awards.

UCLA will now have three return-
ing starters from last year's NCAA
Sweet 16 squad - senior guard Eari
Watson, junior center Dan Gadzuric
and Kapono.

"Of course we are very pleased to
have Jason returning to our team,"
Bruin head coadi Steve Lavin said in
a statement. —

"Jasdn was very deliberate in his
approach to exploring his future in
basketball at the next level. Jason
decided that even though he would be
a first round draft choice, he wanted
to come back to our UCLA family for
another year of education and basket-
ball," he said.

Lavin was optimistic about the
upcoming season.

"As our leading scorer from last
season, his return solidifies our
chances of again being one of the
nation's top teams for the coming sea-
son," he said.

• • •

It was announced last Monday that
the Bruin men's basketball program
signed a third member to the 2000
recruiting class. Ryan Walcott , a 6-
foot-3 point guard from Shadow
Mountain High in Phoenix, Ariz.,
signed a grant in aid contraa to play
basketball at UCLA.

While Walcott joins the team after
the official signing period, the grant-
in-aid serves the same purpose as a
sdiolarship to play NCAA basketball.

Last Fd>niary, Walcott helped lead
Shadow Mountain to the Arizona 5A
State Championship. A cousin to
University of Arizona standout Mike

Bibby, who is currently with the
NBA's Vancouver Grizzli^, Walcott
averaged 16.2 points and 5.4 assists
per game last season as a senior. He
shot 52 percent from the field, 40 per-
cent from threeix>int range and 76
percent from the foul line.

"We arc thrilled to have Ryan
Walcott join the UCLA basketball
family," Lavin said. "Ryan comes
from an elite high school program and
-was well^chooled by his coach, Jerry
Conner. Our staff believes Ryan's
future is vei^ bright."

For the last four seasons; Walcott
has been the starting point guard. He
helped lead the team to 21 victories in
its last 22 games, including wins over
three Top 10 teams to reach the
Arizona State semi-finals. Shadow
Mountain was 27-5 in 1999-2000.

During Walcott's four-year (1997-
2000) high school career. Shadow
Mountain was 92-37 overall, includ-
ing a 266 mark in 1999 and advanced
to the Arizona State Tournament all
four seasons.

"This was Ryan's fourth year as
our starting point guard," Conner
said. "He not only has point guard
skills as far as being able to push the
ball and pass, but he possesses the off-
guard's ability to shoot the basketball.
He's really a complete player, who is
very quick on defense."

Walcott, who was also recruited by
the likes of St. Louis and Arizona
State, is UCLA's third incoming
freshman recruit for the coming sea-
son. He joins 6-foot-9T. J. Cummings,
from Homewood-Rossmore High in
Homewood, III. and 6^oot-8 Josiah
Johnson, from Montclair Prep in Van
Nuys.

NBA draft claims two from UCLA

M.HOOPS: Moiso may go
No. 8; Rushiess hopeful;
Kapono decides to wait

By AJ Cadman

Daily Bruin Senior Staff

The exodus of some of the nation's
best basketball underclassmen from
college to the pros begins Wednesday
when the N BA holds its annual ama-
teur draft at 4:30 p.m. at the Target
Center in Minneapolis.

While UCLA reclaimed one of its
would-be draftees in freshman Jason
Kapono last Monday, two other
Bruins,
sophomores
J e r o m-e
Moiso and
JaRon Rush,
arc attempt-
ing to follow
in the foot-
steps of for-
mer UCLA
point guard
Baron Davis, who left college for a
professional basketball contract.

"I think I have the potential to play
in the NBA," Moiso said at a press
conference held after he and Rush
decided to enter their names in the
draft. "|t will take a lot of hard work
in the first year to make the transition
from college basketball to the pros."

UCLA has already had five first-
round draft picks this decade, and
will attempt to land two more in the
first year of the new millennium. In a
draft lacking immediate impact play-
ers, two of Westwood's most high-
profile athletes will try to land a spot
on an NBA roster next season.

Moiso, a 6-foot- 10 forward who

JaRon Rush

declared his intentions after many
believed he might be a marginal pick
from the lottery to the middle first
round, has impressed professional
scouts with his versatility and size.
Through private workouts with sev-
eral NBA squads, he has many bas-
ketball analysts, including ESPN's
Andy Kalz, saying that Moiso could
go as high as No. 8 to the Cleveland
Cavaliers.

Moiso has all the necessary skills
to develop into a solid NBA forward.
The Guadeloupe, West Indies, native
has a smooth midrange jumper and a
soft touch, as well as a great leaping
ability to rebound and shotblock at a
professional level.

Yet skeptics such as George
Rodecker, a CBS sportsline.com
analyst who has also written for pub-
lications like College Hoops Insider
and Basketball Times, have dubbed
Moiso as inconsistent and as some-
one who turns his energy on and off.

Critics say he can dominate unlike
any other in college basketball, but
can also disappear while being the
largest player on the court. With big-
ger bodies and more physical contact
m the NBA, Moiso must be able to
pound in the paint.

But his offensive prowess earned
him AII-Pac-10 Honorable Mention.
He averaged 12 points and seven
rebounds per contest while shooting
nearly 50 percent from the field.

UCLA's other underclassmen
looking to get drafted on Wednesday
is Rush, a 6-7 forward^ He received
much publicity last season for viola-
tions of NCAA amateur rules and
was suspended for much of the sea-
son before returning for its final nine
contests.

But his playing in those games was
crucial in helping UCLA reach the

Sweet 16 for the third time in four
years.

Rush was instrurhental in his first
game back from suspension. He
scored 17 points, capped by a base-
line jumper at the buzzer in overtime,
to lead the Bruins to a 94-93 upset vic-
tory over then top-ranked Stanford ai
Maples Pavilion: — ■ . •

While his statistics might make
many NBA teams turn away, the
Kansas City native's athleticism still
has many teams examining his" draft
possibilities. Rodecker has tabbed
Rush as going anywhere from the late
first-round to not being chosen at all.
While the latter is not a likely sce-
nario, the critics point to Rush's
weaker ball-
handling and
perimeter
shooting skills
as reasons
why he could
slip down the
draft board.

But Rush
improved in
both of those
areas last season,

complementing that with a desire to
play aggressively above the rim, as
witnessed by his numerous alley-oop
jams and rebounds against bigger
players. His tenacity should help him
survive an NBA season.

"I think this is a great opportunity
for me," Rush said at the press con-
ference. "Coach has talked to the
GMs and said I could go anywhere
from 15 to 25 (in the first round) and
might slip, at worse, into the second
round. It really depends on how the
individual team workouts go."

Kapono's recent pullout has much

TROPHY: UCLA awarded
for excellence of program;
Stanford takes No. 1 rank

By Oirb Umpicrre

Daily Bruin Staffs

The UCLA athletic department
provided some more evidence this past
season that Sports Illustrated wasn't
too far off when it tabbed UCLA as
the No. 1 jock school in 1997.

UCLA finished the 1999-2000 sea-
son as the second best overall colle-
giate athletic program in the nation,
according to the ^

Sears Directors
Cup standings.
Spearheaded by
five national
titles, the Bruins
scored 1 103.5 to
finish 166

points behind
first place
Stanford
(1269.5).

It was

UCLA's sev-
enth straight

top five finish and best performance in
the Sears Cup standings since the
1995-1996 season.

"1 thought we had a great overall
year," UCLA Associate Athletic
Director of recruiting Michael
Sondheimer said. '* Finishing second is
a major accomplishment for us.

"UCLA has had a lot of great years
but this was the best in a few years," he
added.

The Bruins won national titles this
past season in men's water polo,
women's indoor track and field,
women's gymnastics, men's volleyball,
and women's water polo. Since
"women's water polo is not yet a
NCAA sponsored sport, however, it
was not taken into consideration. ^_
The five national titles was UCLA's
highest total since the 1983-84 season.
And if the Bruins received a timely
hit, kicked the ball just right, or had
been injury-free, several other UCLA
sports could have brought more hard-
ware to Westwood.

The UCLA softball team lost the
championship game to Oklahoma 3-1

but had an

to win the game

in the final

inning. With

and second with

two outs, cen-

terfielder Crissy

Buck was caHed

The Bruin

The UCLA men's tennis team was

NCAA title but their hopes were

varying accounts- on who was
the aggressor of the fight on
May 30.

According to deputy district
attorney Dana Garcetti and
Wirth, who spoke to the detec-
tive on the case and to several
students who have come to visit
DeZubiria, Faoa started th«-
fight.

"Asi was challenging people
-to fight," Garcetti said. "Hc^
was asking something like, 'Do
you want a piece of me?'"

According to Wirth nobody
would fight with Faoa, and so
he hit a nearby student who hap-
pened to be DeZubiria.

"Rodrigo didn't even see the
blow coming; he was totally
blindsided and thrown down,
striking his head on the con-
crete," she said. "He was
knocked unconscious."

Faoa's lawyer, Milton
Grimes, tells a different story.

Grimes said DeZubiria was
the aggressor, that he punched
Asi in the eye and Faoa struck
back once.

"We don't know all that hap-
pened. It seems Unlikely that
Asi would provoke a fight. At

Daily Bniin Spofts

Monday, June 26, 200(>-Fri(by, June 30, 2000 11

worst, he was defending him-
self," he added.

According to Garcetti and
Wirth 's accounts, there was no
evidence of anybody threaten-
ing Faoa.

"I know that Asi is claiming
Rodrigo hit him first, but that is
untrue," Wirth said. "The
police report and witnesses to
the incident say the attack was
totally unprovoked."
—But the defcnse'slstory is the
opposite of this.

Both DeZubiria and

Faoa's fannilies feel

the effects of the

fight.

"It appeared to be a reaction
of self-defense on Asi's part,"
Grimes said. "It wasn't his
fault."

According to Kim Faoa,
when her son came home a few
days after the incident, his eye
was black and bleeding from the
hit it had taken.

Should Faoa be found guilty,
the prosecution has not yet
decided what punishment it will

seek for him. Garcetti said
prison is an option, but added,
"It depends on how facts come
out at the preliminary hearing."

Both DeZubiria and Faoa's
families feel the effects of the
fight.

"The medical costs are quite
high," Wirtfesaid of treatment
for her son| "The insurance
helps, butxloes not cover every-
thing, and treatment will contin-
ue for quite some time.

"Rodrigo has also lost time
from school and work. I have
taken an unpaid leave from
work to care for him so I am
incurring wage loss as well," she
added.

Kim Faoa sees an injustice
done against her son. The time
between the fight and his arrest,
Faoa had not been aware of the

wrist three days before tournament play.

Despite the close calls, the UCLA athletic
department is very proud of its finish in the
Sears Cup.

"Our finish in the Sears Cup shows the out-
standing broad base athletic program we
strive for every year at UCLA," UCLA
spokesman Marc Dellins said.
— Sondheimer added: "To have that kind of
program where every sport does well nation-
ally you need special coaches and special ath-
letes. At UCLA, we have both."
. Meanwhile, Stanford won its unpr^edent*
ed sixth straight Sears Cup behind two nation-
al tides in men's tennis and men's outdoor
track and field and runner-up finishes in base-
ball, women's tennis, women's golf, women's
volleyball and men's water polo.

"Eadi year Stanford's student athletes and
the athletics department, strive to win the
Sears Directors' Cup, the measuring stick for

college athletics," Stanford Athletic Director
Ted Ldand said.

"Through the Sears Directors* Cup pro-
gram, Stanford's student-athletes, coaphes
and support staff are rewarded for their dedi-
cation to excellence in all sports," he added.

However, Sondheimer feels the tables are
tilted more toward the Cardinal in the Sears
Cup competition.

"Stanford's got a great program but I
think the format favors them," he said.
"They've got more sports than we do."

The Cardinal has 28 sports while UCLA"
ha9^2l. The Sears Cup standings consider all
of the NCAA sponsored sports a school has.
— The Cup began during the 1993-94 season^
Prior to that season, USA Today conducted
separate surveys for men's and women's pro-
grams. It began its surveys for the best men's
program in 1971 and for the best women's
program in 1977.

Under that format, UCLA was selected

and the No. I women's athletic program 10
times.

FOOTBALL: Faoa pleads

not giiilty; incident leaves
victim with brain damage

By Pauline Vu

Daily Bruin Senior Staff . _^__J

UCLA redshirt freshman line-,
backer Asi Faoa was arresfed ^or hit-
.ting another student who is now suf-
fering from brain damage.

Faoa, 19, was arrested on June 16
and charged with one count each of
mayhem and assault after a May 30
altercation with third-year psycholo-
gy student Rodrigo DeZubiria, 22.

The incident occurred at a
Lambda Chi block party on
Strathmore and Gayley in celebra-
tion of the Inter-sorority Volleyball
Tournament. According to the

police report, Faoa and DeZubiria
^roltidedrepeatedly in^ moshptttrt —
the party. Then Faoa struck
DeZubiria with his elbow once.
DeZubiria was said to have been
intoxicated at the time.

After he was struck, DeZubiria
fell to the ground. Though the prose-
cution says that the combination of
Faoa's hit and the impact of hitting
the ground caused DeZubiria's
brain damage, the defense says it
was solely the fall that put
DeZubiria in his present state.

DeZubiria is recuperating at his
San Francisco hcune. The brain
damage he received affected the part
of his brain that controls speaking,
reading, writing, comprehension
and other areas of language.

"I was very frightened for him,
and upset that something like this
could occur at a respected universi-

ty, and by someone who is supposed
to represent that school in a positive
way," said DeZubiria's mother,

s affesn;:aTne^a$^ surpftse-
to his family.

"We were shocked," said Kim
Faoa, Asi's mother. "Because that's
not our son - Asi would not hit any-
body. As parents, we were very hurt
that somebody can do something
like that, destroy our son like that.
He's just not that person."

Faoa, 19, has been indefinitely
suspended from the football team.

"The suspension is consistent
with past precedent," UCLA
Athletic Director Peter Dalis said in
a statement. "We will investigate the
situation beCpre making any other
decisions." ^

At his arraignment on Monday,
June 19, Faoa pled not guilty to both
charges. His preliminary hearing.jt
was set for July 10 and his bail, orig>
inally set at $100,000 at the time of .

his arrest, was lowered to $25,000.
After the arraignment Faoa^ was

taken to the Los Angeles County
Jail.

By midnight of Tuesday, however,
his family had raised the money
needed to post bail, with help from
family members, friends, and the
local community in Anaheim,
Faoa's hometown.

Also, when the Anaheim commu-
nity learned of Faoa's arrest, many
people came forward to offer them-
selves as witnesses to his character.

"There arc people here who love
him and who believe in their hearts
that our son is not the person that
they said he was or accused him of
being," Kim Faoa said. "The sup-
port has been so marvelous."

To remember former UCLA
baseball coach Art Reichle

is to understand the
— ^ meaning of loyalty - —

Two memorial services were held for Art Reichle, former head
coach for the UCLA baseball team, who passed away last month.

By Pauline Vu

Daily Bruin Senior Staff

The UCLA record books mention that
Art Reichle served as the Bruin head base-
ball coach for 30 years; that he led the
Bruins to their first College World Series
appearance in 1969; that he compiled a
747-582-12 overall record; that he was
inducted into the UCLA Athletics Hall of
Fame in 1998.

But there was a lot more to Art Reichle
than just stats.

He was a man whose word was his
bond. A friend who gave as much loyally
as he inspired. A father who passed these
values to his children.

And though Arthur Eugene Reichle Jr.,
86, died May 23 of heart failure, those who
showed up at The Church of the Way in
Van Nuys the day before Father's Day did
not come to mourn his death so much as to
honor his life.

"It's not within my vocabulary to ade-
quately express how I feel about him." for-.

mer UCLA men's basketball coach John
Wooden said. "Art, we love )^u, we miss
you, we'll never forget you."
- Denny Crum, the head men's basket-
ball coach in Louisville and a former
UCLA assistant coach, was another
speaker at the memorial. "You couldn't
have a better friend than Art Reichle," he
said. "And while we all certainly will miss
Art, he could not be in better hands."

An earlier memorial was held in
Florida, where Reichle moved in 1989.
The Van Nuys memorial was held by
Reichle's son Richard and daughter
Denise, who live in the Los Angeles area.
Most of the approximately 75 people pre-
sent were UCLA-related. They included
Wooden, Crum, current baseball coach
Gary Adams, former men's swimming
and water polo coach Bob Horn (1963-
1990), and a host of former players.

Those present remembered the good
times with Reichle. Wooden recalled his
kindness toward him when Wooden first
moved to California from the Midwest.

"The big city frightened me. Art was
one of two people to begin with who really
befriended ma," he said.

Wooden recounted that when he and
his wife Nellie bought their house in Los
Angeles, it cost them everything they had
and they did not have enough money left
to have someone set up their sprinkler sys-
tem. Then one day out of the blue, Reichle
showed up with several players to install
the system for Wooden.

A similar incident occurred later.
Telling Wooden, "You ought to get a bas-
ketball court," Reichle showed up one day
and together. Wooden and Reichle built a
concrete court for Wooden's kids.

"He was a very giving person, and he
had a heart as big as his body," Wooden
said. "He'd help anyone, give anything."

Others also recalled Reichle's loyalty.

Ross Hoffman, a Bruin first baseman
from 1967 to 1968, remembered the first
time he spoke to Reichle. HofTman was

Kapono withdraws
name from draft

M.HOOPS: Forward
decides to return to
UCLA next season

ByAJCadman

Daily Bruin Senior Staff

UCLA freshman forward
Jason Kapono announced
on Friday of finals week that
he would withdraw his name
from consideration for this
year's NBA draft on
Wednesday and return to the
Bruin basketball program.

Submitting a formal letter
to the NBA offices in New
York five days before the
pull-out deadline of June 21,
Kapono is eligible to return
to UCLA because he did not
sign representation with an
agent while a draft candidate.

The Bruins' leading scorer
last season with a 16 points

per contest average,' Kapono
had previously declared his
intentions to "test the waters"
of the NBA Draft on May 13.

He stated in his letter to
NBA deputy commissioner
Russ Granik that "this letter
shall serve as my notice to
resume participation in inter-
collegiate athletics at UCLA
and withdraw my name as a
candidate for the 2000 NBA.
Draft."

"I had a lot of things to
consider," Kapono said. "I
believe I would have been a
first-round selection in this
draft. The deciding factor for
me was being able to come
back to UCLA, be with my
teammates, play for the
Bruins and continue my col-
lege experience and educa-
tion."

Construction in South Campus

FACILITIES: Renovation
to benefit all despite
current noise, hassles

By Melody Wang

Daily Bruin Contributor

Sounds of chain saws and bull-
dozers echo through campus as
summer school students attempt
to pursue their studies.

Constructipn of a new building
near Knudsen Hall and replace-
ment of the concrete walkway
near Bunche Hall and the Public
Policy Building began on June 26.

"The obvious reason we're
doing this work during the sum-
mer is because August and
September have the lowest levels
of activity on campus," said John
Sandbrook, assistant provost of
the College of Letters and
Science.

Jack Powazek, assistant vice
chancellor of - Facilities
Management who oversees the
project near Public Policy, said
summer is the best time for con-

struction because projects aren't
delayed by bad weather.
' Powazek said the walkway
near Public Policy must be'
replaced because of potentially
hazardous cracks in the concrete.
Worn out exterior lighting and
underground irrigation systems
will also be replaced.

Powazek said once the con-
crete is repaired, new shrubs and
trees will be planted in the area.

Though the project may bene-
fit the campus, some students
complain about the small path-
ways set aside to allow entry into
Public Policy.

"Because of the construction,
the whole area is blocked off so
when everybody gets out of class,
the pathway gets really crowded,"
said Francisco Crespo, an ethno-
musicology graduate student.

Others complain about noise
pollution.

"My only complaint is that I
have a class in Public Policy, and
it's a French class so you kind of
need to be able to hear and some-
times it's a little difTicult to hear
with them banging out here," said

Vincent Bidez, a fourth-year soci-
ology student. "But I'm not too
bitter about it."

Powazek said the noisiest part
of the construction, which
involves tearing up the old con-
crete, is almost over.

Most of the project should be
completed by October and will
cost about $400,000 to $500,000.

At the same time, work on con-
structing a new Physics and
Astronomy building has begun,
but it won't be completed until
spring 2003 and will cost
$39,345,000. .

Ron Enholm, principal project
manager for Campus Capital
Programs, which oversees the uni-
versity's construction projects,
said the actual construction of the
building is scheduled for Spring
2001, but workers will demolish
the current Physics Research Lab
and clear the area around it by
October of this year. They will
also excavate a space for a two-
level basement.

The new brick building will be
connected to Knudsen Hall at
every level except the ground

floor, Enholm said.

Marc Fisher, director of design
services for Campus Capital
Programs said the building will
improve the campus's aesthetics. .

"The building is designed to be
compatible in scale and character
with Powell Library and Moore
Hall," Fisher said.

To complete the project,
Enholm said a temporary road for
construction trucks will be built
between Franz and Knudsen halls
since campus roads are either too
narrow or can only support
10,000 pounds. The road will be
removed at the end of 2001.
- Like the Public Policy project,
some are upset with the process of
constructing thft Physics and
Astronomy building.

Christine Green, an adminis-
trative specialist in the Physics
and Astronomy Department who
has been at UCLA for 22 years,
said she is upset construction
workers are cutting down about
60 trees to clear the land.

FUNDING: Added funds
to aid graduate research,
undergraduate education

By Timothy Kudo

Daily Bruin Senior Staff ,

Gov. Gray Davis signed next year's
$99.4 billion l)udget June 30, with edu-
cation at the top of the list of the
biggest expenditures - totalling nearly
halfofthe entire budget.

"In my State of the Slate Address, I
laid down a call to arms on behalf of
our schools. This budget answers that
call," Davis said in a statement. "In a
budget with so many winners, by far
the biggest winners arc our school chil-
dren." - -;

The budget gives $32 billion to K-
12 education, a $4.2 billion increase
from last year, and $ 10 billion for high-
er education, including the UC.
California State University System
and Community College System.

There is a $486 million, or 1 7.9 per-,
cent increase to the UC's budget,
which now totals $3.2 billion.

"This budget allows us to maintain
access to a high-quality, affordable
education for all IJC-eligible students
while also making strategic invest-
ments in research, health care and out-
reach to California's elementary and
secondary schools," said UC
President Richard Atkinson in a state-
ment.

Since a large portion of the
University of California's budget is
going to K-12 programs, UCLA's

Disclosure of drug past
may affect financial aid

CONVICnON: Some say provision curbs narcotics
use; others cite discrimination of minority students

By Christine Byrd

Daily Bruin Senior Staff

Get convicted of drug use and U)se
your federal financial aid - that's the
law.

A provision to the Higher
Education Act of 1998 instituted
changes in the Federal Application
for Financial Student Aid, including
an additional question about whether
a student has been convicted of a
drug-related crime. Students convict-
ed of such a crime are ineligible for
financial aid.

Although some see this as a deter-

rent to drugHise, others say it discrim-
inates against lower-income and
minority students.

Not only are previously-convicted
students ineligible, but if a student is
convicted while on financial aid, the
aid will be cut for one year following
the conviction.

"My greatest concern is for the
students to know about this law so
that they can make informed choic-
es," said Liz Kemper, director of
Student Legal Services.

"It has potential to disrupt acade-

In preparation for the children of

experience,
learn about
life at UCLA

For The Daily Bruin

The greatest shock Japanese stu-
dents Aska Takahashi and Hiromi
Murayama experienced in the
United States was something most
Americans take for granted: cars
_ stopping for pedestrians.

In Taiwan, where both students
attend school during the year, cars
have the right-of-way in all situa-
tions.

Traffic regulations, however, are
just one difference for international
students attending UCLA Summer
Sessions.

Playing host to a majority of
these students during the summer,
Rieber Hall boasts occupants from
more then 30 different countries, as
well as students from the United
States.

Among the numerous students
attending the sessions, many have
globe-trotted around the world.

Like a number of other students,
Mehdi Benfaida's father works for
the Moroccan Embassy, which has
allowed him to experience a variety
of cultures and countries. He
attends an American-run school in
Paris during the academic year.

Benfaida listed the academic

rigor of a six-week summer session
as one of the reasons he decided to
come to UCLA, saying he believed
the accelerated work-pace would
prove more challenging.

According to Benfaida, living in
residence halls offer mostly positive
experiences, although the small size
ofthe bedrooms fostered an atmos-
phere lacking in privacy. -

On the other hand, he said the
food served in residence halls recti-
fied much ofthe living discomfort.

Now that Benfaida has .experi-
enced Westwood life, he said he can
compare American life to that in
France. Overall, Benfaida said
things in the slates are less expen-
sive to buy and easier to obtain.

"A simple meal in France would
have cost around $100," he said.
"Whereas in the United States, $20
dollars would have been more than
sufficient.

Because he attended an
American school in Paris, Benfaida
said he received advice and heard
stereotypes about Los Angeles
from friends who had visited the
area.

Some of the words of wisdom
Benfaida's friends gave him
warned him about false attitudes
people here apparently exerted.

Like Benfaida, Takahashi and
Murayama have traveled all over
the world with their families.
Having visited such countries as
New Zealand, Australia and
Singapore in addition to the United
States, both Takahashi and
Murayama have experienced a
variety of different cultures.

The two, who also attended
UCLA Summer Sessions last year,
came to the campus this summer to
prepare for college, similar to many
American high-schoolers taking
classes here.

Murayama said although their
parents sent the two friends to the
United States because they believed
living here would have a better
influence over their daughters, they
expect the young women to shed
their newly-adopted lifestyles once
they return home. For example,
smoking among teenagers is a lot
more prevalent in Taiwan.

Takahasi said -one difference
between American and Asian cul-
tures includes eye contact, which in
Japan and China is considered
rude.

"In American culture, lack of
eye contact can mean guilt or
unfriendliness," she said.

While both Takahashi and

Murayama came to UCLA to have
fun and experience Los Angeles
culture last year, this year they said
they are focusing on academics.

Because they want to attend col-
lege in California, Takahashi and
Murayama said they devote several
hours during the day to academics
and SAT preparation in addition to
their summer sessions classes.

Additionally, this year the two
have friends from Taiwan living
nearby.

Although both said they missed
their families back home,
Takahashi and Murayama did not
miss the often littered and dirty
environment in their home towns.

These days, the two remarked
that they enjoy the seemingly inces-
sant sunshine and warm weather of
southern California, another differ-
ence from Taiwan.

While a majority of the students
living in Rieber Hall during the
summer are international students,
some American students from vari-
ous parts ofthe county are also part
ofthe scene.

Mardello Robinson, an incom-
ing freshman, originally came from
Chicago but he decided to attend
UCLA because of its proximity to
Hollywood.

As an aspiring actor who had
parts in the TV drama ER and tele-
vision commercials, Robinson said
the progression of his career
depended on a move to California.

"Jf I really wanted to make it, I
had to come to LA," he said.

Robinson said during the past
week, he met various international
students, but language barriers kept
him from befriending many of
them.

Robinson said they understand-
ably socialized with students from
their own background.

"You're going to stick with
whomever you're going to under-
stand better," Robinson said.

On the other hand, he said that
others, like his roommate from
Korea, try to learn English from
interacting with American stu-
dents.

"Every day, he teaches me a new
Korean word," Robinson said.

Despite the initial lack of com-
munication among different
groups of students, Robinson said
he remains hopeful of future inter-
action.

"Not only am I hoping to learn
something from them," he said.
"But I hope they learn something
from us too."

Harry Browne wants voters to

during the July 2 presidential
debate. He accepted his nomina-

pride to be part ofthe Libertarian

"I hope to see you all aboard."
he said to the more than 1,000

tion of all drugs and the privatiza-

All five presidential nominees
favored what they called the "sep-

"We want to be in a position
where the state doesn't educate

SECURITY: Problems lead
Washington to demand
changes in two contracts

By H. Josef Hebert

The Associated Press

WASHINGTON After a siring
of security lapses, the Energy
department gave notice June 30 it

to keep the university's "strong sci-
ence and academic expertise" as part
of the weapons program "so
weapons scientists feel comfortable
for their future."

Negotiations will begin immedi-
ately to start the process of splitting
management responsibilities at both
the Los Alamos National
Laboratory in New. Mexico and the
Lawrence Livermore , National
Laboratory . in California, the

The government contract with the
University of California expires in

contract is expected to be re-negoti-
ated this year.

"The department will immediate-

intends to strip the University of

Energy Secretary Bill Richardson
told t he u ni v ersity it^ t:€mtracls Tor -
managing the Los Alamos and

Richardson said in an interview
that the university "will still be
actively involved" in scientific
aspects of the nuclear weapons pro-
grams, but some other management
responsibilities, especially security.,
would be transferred elsewhere.

The restructuring was expected to
be worked out by September as part
of a renegotiation of the govern-

Richardson said. He called the uni-
versity's performance in managing
security at the weapons labs unac-
ceptable.

"The university welcomes the
opportunity to work with DOE in
this effort and to create a path for-
ward that meets all security needs,"
Richard Atkinson, the university's
president, said in a statement.

"There's. Still a culture
of lax security (at the
-government labs);''—

Bill Richardson

Energy Secretary

The university, which has man-
aged the nuclear weapons program
at Los Alamos since 1943 and tjie
beginni^ng Manhattan Project,
which exploded America's first
nuclear device in the New Mexico
desert, has come under sharp criti-
cism for security lapses in recent
years.

The two-month disappearance of
twovcomputer hard drives from a
vault at the Los Alamos lab caused a
growing number of lawmakers in
Congress to question whether a uni-
versity atmosphere can mix with
security needs of the nudear
weapons programs.

"There's still a culture of lax secu-
rity," Richardson said Friday, refer-
ring to the government laboratories.

weapons agency, Undersecretary
John Gordon, former deputy CIA
director, was charged with oversee-
ing the contract renegotiating and
addressing. with the university "the
serious shortcomings ... at our
-weapons l a b o ratories,'- the depar^-
ment said. ; *

Richardson has expressed out-
rage over the disappearance of the
two hard drives, containing nuclear
secrets from a highly secured Los
Alamos laboratory vault. He was
even more incensed by not having
learned of the security breach for
nearly a month after it became
known to some Los Alamos scien-
tists. , —

The incident prompted demands^
in Congress for his resignation.

Last year, Richardson also was
highly critical of the university's han-
'dling of a sophisticated laser pro-
gram at the Lawrence Livermore
National Laboratory in California.
After repeatedly assuring the $1 bil-
lion laser program was on schedule
and within budget, Richardson was
told without warning there would be
a $300 million cost overrun and sub-
stantial delays.

The University of California man-
ages both Los Alamos and
Lawrence Livermore.

SCHOOLS: State officials
expect 300,000 educators

-Cl ass - siz ^ reduction
)ing well in Californt
but are still shackled by the state's
inability to hire enough qualified
teachers to fill all the new clas.s-
roorfis, according to a stale-commis-
sioned report released last week.

The state's $4.5 billion effort to
"reduce Thenumb^r ot sludents^ TfT
kindergarten-through-third-grade
classes "continues to be marked by
small, positive gains," according to a
report released by the Class Size
Reduction Research Consortium.

The report, commissioned by the
state's Department of Education,
says that third grade students in
classes of 20 or fewer performed bet-
ter fhan students in larger classes
last year, and they continued to do
better as they moved on to the larger
fourth grade classes.

Also, since the effort began in
1996, more than 92 percent of K-3
students have been moved into
smaller classes.

"It's important to notice that the
benefits are equal to all racial and
ethnic groups who were placed 'in
smaller classes^" said Brian Stecher,
senior social scientist at the RAND
Corp. and co-author of the report.

Teachers in reduced-size classes
reported spending more time work-
ing one-on-one with students, work-
ing with small groups and focusing

on children with reading problems,
according to the report.

But due to class-size reduction
and population increased, California
has a shortage of qualified teachers
— those who have completed all
state rcqutremenls and have a state
teaching credential. And the state is
expected to need 300,000 more
leacheriover th&next decade

Fh€ f cport fottftd ^hat mor e
underqualified teachers are being
hired to fill the slate's increasing
number of classrooms - and most of
those teachers are being hired at
schools serving low-income, minori-
ty and non-English speaking stu-
dents.

"The more qualified candidates
are taking the jobs in the suburbs
and leaving the schools in the inner-
cities to take candidates who are not
fully prepared," Stecher said in a
telephone interview ' from
Sacramento where the report was
released.

"Students most in need are most
likely to have teachers who aren't
credentialed. It's unfortunate
because one of the goals of class-size
reduction was to close the gap in
achievemer^l between minority and
majority students," he said.

The report is part of a $ 1.2 million
four-year study of California's
efforts at class-size reduction being
put together by RAND, the
AmQrican Institutes for Research,
Policy Analysis for California
Education, EdSource and WestEd.

Observers of California's educa-
tional system say the report contains
no real surprises and call for contin-
ued efforts to lure* more qualified
teachers into the state.

Divisive issues rule
Supreme Court year

RECAP: Percentage of
^ne-vote wiH^mteome^
highest in over a decade

The loss for rape victims - in
whi ch the c o urt s truck do wn a key

'.▼•".,

By Richard Carelli

The Associated Press

"^ WASHINGTON - The Supreme
Court made its I999-200G term one
of history's most consequential by
tackling some of America's toughest
legal and social issues. Decisions on
abortion, school prayer, grandpar-
ents' rights, states' rights, police tac-
tics and gay Boy Scouts captured the
nation's attention.

"They're not ducking," said Mary
Cheh, a George Washington
University law professor. "The court
showed a certain fearlessness in tak-
ing on the cases it did." •

The conservative court, which
ended Wednesday the term it began
in October, did not always reach con-
servative conclusions. The justices
upheld the famous Miranda warn-
ings police must give criminal sus-
pects before questioning them,
banned group prayers at high school
football games and struck down a
state's "partial-birth abortion" law,
perhaps dooming similar restrictions
in 30 other states.

"It was an amazing term that
forces us to give a much more
nuanced account of the Rehnquist
court," said Erwin Chemerinsky, a
University of Southern California
law professor. "In some regards it is a
very conservative and activist court,
but it defmitely has its limits."

The divisive issues were reflected
in the court's votes - 20 of the term's
73 signed decisions were reached by
5-4 votes, the highest percentage of
one-vote outcomes in more than a
decade.

Chief Justice William H.
Rehnquist and the court's leading
conservatives, Antonin Scalia and
Clarence Thomas, were joined by
centrists Sandra Day O'Connor and
Anthony M. Kennedy in 13 of those
20 cases.

Among them were decisions that
let the Boy Scouts ban homosexual
troop leaders, prevented rape victims
from suing their attackers in federal
courts, and barred the federal Food
and Drug Administration from regu-
lating cigarettes as dangerous drugs.

p rav i s i o n of th e f e de r al Violence
Against Women Act - was a states'
rights victory. Rehnquist wrote that it
is up to the states, not Congress, to
choose whether to protect women in
that way.

"It was a major defeat for
Congress, showing that the court has
a narrow view of congressional
power under the constitutional
amendments ratified after the Civil
War," said Yale law professor Akhil
Amar. Those amendments ensure
civil rights for all citizens.

O'Connor again loomed as the
court's pivotal .majority-maker. She
cast only four dissenting votes in the
73 cases, compared wilh nine for
Kennedy, 10 for Thomas, 13 for
Rehnquist and 14 for Scalia.

The court's four more liberal jus-
tices found themselves in dissent
more often. John Paul Stevens cast
28 dissenting votes, Ruth Bader
Ginsburg, 22; David H. Souter, 21;
and Stephen G. Breyer, 18.

O'Connor also limited the conser-
vative thrust of an important church-
state decision when she supplied a
crucial vote for the majority but
wrote separately to voice key differ-
ences.

In that case, the court significantly
lowered the figurative wall of separa-
tion between government and reli-
gion by ruling that taxpayer money
can be used to supply computers and
other instructional materials for reli-
gious schools.

Although O'Connor agreed with
that result, she refused to join an
extraordinarily sweeping Thomas
opinion that would have allowed vir-
tually any government subsidy of reli-
gious institutions as long as it is not
intended to further the religious mis-
sion. Rehnquist, Scalia and Kennedy
signed on with . homas - one vote
short of a majority.

In one of its mosr closely watched
decisions, the court split 6-3 to limit
states' power to help grandparents
and others with close ties to children
win the right to see them regularly
against parents' wishes.

The court stopped short, however,
of giving parents absolute veto power
over who gets to visit their children
and left unanswered many questions
state courts face daily in visitation
battles.

Controverslat
flag removed
after continual
NAACP debate

CONFEDERATE: Protests
persist as new banner
raised near Statehouse

By Jim Davenport

The Associated Press

COLUMBIA, S.C. - After decades
of debate and mounting pressure from
an NAACP boycott. South Carolina
finally removed the Confederate flag
from atop its Statehouse on July 1 in a
somber ceremony that paid tribute to
its Civil War roots.

The flag, seen as a reminder of slav-
ery for some and a tribute to Southern
heritage for others, flew atop the
Statehouse dome for 38 years.

But protests over the flag continued
even as it was being lowered. Civil War
re-enactors raised another
Confederate flag on Statehouse
grounds, in front of a Confederate sol-
dier's monument.

The new location was part of the
compromise reached by the
Legislature in May.

Hundreds of anti-Confederate flag
demonstrators held bright yellow signs
reading "Shame" and blew whistles as
the flag was hoisted atop the flagpole.

BOY: Officials may use
case as guide for future
child immigration issues

By Laurie Asseo
The Associated Press

WASHINGTON -After seven
months of bitter emotions and plenty
of political heat, the case of Elian
Gonzalez was finally resolved under
long-standing rules on parents' rights
and immigration law.

"Ultimately what the Elian
Gonzalez case stands for is the right of
a parent to speak for and raise a child ...
irrespective of the parent's nationality,
ideology or economic status," said
Bernard Perlmutter, director of the

University of Miami's Children and
Youth Law Clinic.

"The worst that could be said about
Juan Miguel Gonzalez was that he was
Cuban and an adherent of the commu-
nist ideology," but that was not enough
to take the 6-year-old Elian from his
father and give custody to relatives in
Miami, Perlmutter added.

Still, now that Gonzalez has taken
his son back to Cuba, some experts in
family and immigration law hope the
controversy will lead to new ideas for
handling the cases of children who
arrive in the United States without a
parent or close adult relative.

"The real question is going to be
whether those standards need chang-
ing," said Neal Sonnett, a Miami

Mexico elections seen
as fairest in history

MEXICO CITY - As voting neared a close
Sunday in a historic presidential race, the party
that has ruled Mexico for 71 years appeared to
have suflcred crushing losses in three major
regional races.

Sunday's presidential vote was the first in
more than a century in which the outcome was-
n't clear beforehand. Despite hundreds of alle-
gations of pressure and vote-buying - most per-
petrated 1^ the ruling party - the elections were
widely seen as Mexico's fairest ever.

"It could be that we make history today," said
Rebeca Meza Oliva, a 45-year-old housewife
waiting in line to vote.

Meza said she planned to vote for opposition
candidate Vicente Fox of the conservative
National Action Party, who is in a tight race with
Francisco Liibastida of the Institutional
Revolutionary Party, or PR I.
— A s vot i ng booth ii c l o s e d in cen t r al Me xico,

the PRI appeared to have lost the
three key local races, according to
exit polls by the two national television
networks.

According to the Tele visa network's
poll, the leftist Democratic Revolution Party
held onto Mexico City's mayorship as Andres
Manuel Lopez Obrador won 40 percent of the
vote, compared with 34 percent for Santiago
Creel of National Action. It said the PRI's Jesus
Silva Herzog finished third, with 22 percent.

Walter Matthau comic
actor, dead at 79

SANTA MONICA Walter Matthau, the
foghorn-voiced master of crotchety comedy
who won an Oscar for "The Fortune Cookie"
and cemented his stardom as the sloppy Oscar
Madison in "The Odd Couple," died Saturday
of a heart attack. He was 79.

Matthau was pronounced dead at 1:42 a.m.
at Si John's Health Center in Santa Monica.

said hospital spokeswoman Lindi
Funston.
"I have lost someone I loved as a
brother, as a closest friend and a
remarkable human being," said frequent
co-star Jack Lemmon. "We have also lost one of
the best damn actors we'll ever see."

Rowers were placed on Matthau 's star on the
Hollywood Walk of Fame on Saturday.

Often castcd as a would-be con man foiled by
life's travails, Matthau bellowed complaints
against his tormentors and moved his lean, 6-
foot-3 frame in surprising ways.

"Walter walks like a child's windup toy,"
Lemmon once said.

Matthau's performance as Lemmon's shys-
ter brother-in-law in "The Fortune Cookie,"
directed by Billy Wilder, won him the Academy

Americans say they
value First Amendment

WASHINGTON - Free Speech is a great
American principle that should be protected -
except when it protects the airing of views {peo-
ple find offensive, a majority in a new poll says.

On press freedom, half said U S. news media
have too much freedom, while the other half said
the press has about the right amount or not
enough freedom, said the poll by the Freedom
Forum's First Amendment Center.

"It appears many Americans are having sec-
ond thoughts about the First Amendment," said
Kenneth Paulson, executive director of the cen-
ter. "They treasure it as part of this nation's her-
itage, but they become uncomfortable when it
allows others to speak out in offensive ways."

The survey, released June 30 to coincicie with
the July 4 weekend, explores America's commit-
ment to the 45-word First AmctKiment.

mic careers." she added.

Any drug-related conviction,
such as carrying less than an
ounce of marijuana, can lead to
ineligibility for one year; and
convictions for selling drugs or
possessing more than one at a
time can lead to an extended peri-
od of ineligibility.

Although the question was on
this year's FAFSA. students who
did not answer it - and 20 per-
cent chose not to - were still eligi-

ble for aid. Kemper said.

But next year, students w ill be
required to answer the question
to'get federal aid. Any student
currently receiving <fid who is
convicted of a drug-related crime
after July 1 will have their finan-
cial aid revoked.

*■ For a student who depends on
federal aid to afford higher edu-
cation, this could be devastating.

The American Civil Liberties
Union calls this provision
"unwise and discriminatory."

"The provision discriminates
on the basis of class by targeting
students of lower income who
depend on financial aid," said a
brief on the ACLU Web site.

Students convicted of a drug
offense whose family can afford
to pay for college will not be
affected by the legislation.

The ACLU also said the pro-
vision is racially discriminatory.

"Drug enforcement already
focuses heavily on minority com-
munities," said the ACLU Web
site.

Statistics recently released by
the Department of Justice show
that African Americans repre-
sent 1 3 percent of drug offend-
ers, but are 55 percent of the con-

victions, the ACLU brief said.

Of the approximately 20,000
UCLA students receiving feder-
al aid. Kemper agrees lower-
income and minority students
will be disproportionally aflect-
ed.

The prpvision does allow for
students to receive financial aid
again if they complete a drug-
treatment program.

Again, some say this favors
higher-income students who can
afford a program.

Student Legal Services offi-
cials are working with Student
Psy chological Services to create

a drug-treatment program, and
are trying to educate students
about the new l^ws by working
with Office of Residential Life,
the dean of students' office.
Academic Advancement

Program, Community Service
Program and the UCPD.

"It's a major change and
we're very conscious of getting
information out," said Gail
Ishino, assistant director of the
Financial Aid Office.

Onicials said they are starting
at the freshman level aad will
provide workshops and
brochures to inform continuing
students of the changes to the
law.

"We're really trying to cover
as many areas as possible,"
Kemper said, and she empha-
sized the importance of getting
the word out.

"People just weren't hearing
about it.'- she said.

"If they are armed with the
necessary information, hopefully
they will choose not to jeopardize
their financial aid," Kemper con-
tinued.

LIBERTARIAN

From page 3

Bruin Libertarians and third-
year chemical engineering
student, said he doesn't sup-
port the public-school system
and called ft socialist -
despite attending UCLA. .

"It's already here. My par-
ents paid all these taxes for it,
I may as well go to it," he
said.

In addition to abolishing
the public education system

lege campuses, anti-immigra-
tion laws and affirmative
action. In other words, they
support very limited govern-
ment.

Many Libertarians are dis-
satisfied with bureaucracy
and what they see as too
many laws infringing on peo-
ple's rights.

"I used to get absolutely
infuriated over the bungling
of bureaucracy," Gorman
said.

He said he used to stand in
line outside the DMV in the

cates drastic reductions in the
government's role in people's
lives.

"The Libertarian party
believes in liberty and in very
limited government," said
Gail Lightfoot, U.S. senatori-
al candidate for California.
"We need few, simple, clear
laws that everyone under-
stands.

"You have the right to live
your life as long as you're
peaceful and not hurting any-
one," she continued.

The Libertarian Party may
be most famous for its stance
on the drug war. While they
don't oppose or favor drug
use, they are for the legaliza-
tion of ail drugs. In addition,
many oppose age restrictions
on alcohol and tobacco use.

Many party members
agree that the government's
tentacles reach into too many
aspects of people's personal
lives and liberties. ■

The party is against wel-
fare, social security, public
health care, abortion laws-
both for and against-as well
as hate-speech codes on col-

"I used to sit there and say
to myself, 'What is this all
about?' That's.when I started
to take a really hard look at
government," he continued.
"One day I figured out that
I've always been a
Libertarian."

Barry Hess, another
unsuccessful presidential
nominee, said the Libertarian
Party represents the ideas
America was founded on.

"We are not a third party.
We are the first party in
America," he said.

"In a Libertarian world,
you can be a Democrat, but
in a Democratic world, you
can't be a Libertarian.

Libertarians at the conven-
tion expressed dissatisfaction
with the current two-party
system.

"The Democrats and the
Republicans are carbon
copies of each other,"
Salvette said "The bi-parti-
san system doesn't really care
about you."

Delegates voted to add
their opposition to the death
penalty to the party's plat-

Harry Browne was nominated as the Libertarian presi-
dential candidate at the party's convention in Anaheim.

form at the convention.

"As life cannot be restored
to a person who has been
wrongfully executed, we
oppose the death penalty in
all cases," reads the party's
new platform.

Although, in general.
Libertarians favor hands-off
government and radical capi-
talism, there are some dis-
agreements among the
party's members on issues of
ownership, for example.

"Who should own things
that no one created?" asked
Harold Kyriazi, a delegate
from Pittsburgh. "The cur-
rent position is the first users
are the owners."

"One thing is that we want
the platform to stay clear of
the principles of private prop-
erty," he continued.

Among those attending

the convention was former
Sex Pistols lead singer John
Lydon - also known as
Johnny Rotten. One of the
band's most famous songs is
"Anarchy in the U.K," which
might explain Lydon's attrac-
tion to the Libertarian Party's
ideals.

Entertaining a small
crowd gathered around him,
Lydon said the Libertarian
Party offers a "viable alterna-
tive" to America's two-party
system.

"The Reform Party is a
joke; it's Ross Perot's tool,"
he said. "The Green Party
has good will and no content.
They don't understand that
people are just nasty."

ship recipients based solely on one
test score, which she said was racially
biased, and not designed to measure
Individual student achievemen t but
rather, school performance.

Unlike Michigan, there am cur-
rently no state merit-based scholar-
ships in California, but Gov. Gray
Davis has proposed two such pro-
grams.

At UCLA, the only two merit-
based scholarships offered by the
Financial Aid Office ai-e the Regents
and Chancellor's Blue and Gold
scholarships. Both consider students'
SAT I and II test scores, GPA,
extracurricular activities, and letters
of recommendation, said Gail
Ishino, assistant director of the

Financial Aid Office.

According to Edward Flores, a
Student Affairs Officer in charge of
the Blue and Gold Scholarship, the
awards criteria do not hinder stu-
dents coming from lower-tiered
schools. .

Ufjmylhing, it would be an advan-

tage because the donors are request-
ing that we select students from those
schools," Flores said.

Richard Diaz, a manager in the
Standards and Assessment Office of
the California Department of
Education, said California is more
fair than other states in awarding
money to students, especially witfi^
Gov. Davis' proposed scholarship
programs.

One program, the Governor's
Scholarship Program, would provide
$1,000 scholarships based on the
statewide Stanford 9 Test scores. The

Stanford 9 is a standardized test that
assesses student achievement in vari-
ous subjects.

Students ranking in the top 5 per-
cent statewide and top 10 percent at
each individual school woujd qualify
for the award.

The idea behind the governor's
program is that students coming
from higher-tiered schools will face
more competition for the scholar-
ships. Students from lower-tiered
schools may receive lower scores, but
there are fewer students who would
be serious contenders for the award
within their school, Diaz said.

The percentage of students receiv-
ing scholarships overall may be heav-
ily weighted towards students com-
ing from top schools, but the propos-
al would still allow lower-tiered stu-
dents to receive some of the awards,
he added.

"I'd be disingenuous in saying stu-
dents from a lower-end school are
going to have an equal chance of get-
ting this," Diaz said. "By the very
nature of some of the schools and his-
tory of scoring at that school, you're
not going to have, on a per capita
basis, as many students from the
lower end receiving scholarships."

"But there is an effort to try and
equalize this," he continued.

The Governor's Distinguished
Math and Science Scholarship,
another proposed program, awards
$2,500 to individual students who
rank in the top 2 percent in the
Golden State Exam or top 3 percent
of Advanced Placement tests.

If a school offers an AP program;
students must take the AP test, which
they must pay for, to qualify for the
scholarship. Students may substitute
scores from the free Golden State

Exam - which is offered at every
school - only if their schools do not
ofTer an A P program. V

This does not consider whether
AP programs at all schools are of the
same quality.

But, with more than one way for
students to qualify for these scholar-
ships, Diaz said he does not think
California will be facing a lawsuit
similar to Michigan's.

"We're on stronger grounds
because we're making it more equi-
table," he said.

Many are concerned, however,
Ihat students from poorer schooli,
aren't as likely to receive high scores
that would qualify them for the schol-
arship. Christopher Calhoun, a
spokesman for the Southern
California chapter of ACLU, said

"The priority for ihat augrnenta-
lion is compensation for lower paid

I percent raise for faculty to account
for market competitiveness, Hayward
added.

According to Hayward, even mem-
bers of the senior management group,
which encompasses the highest-paid
employees of the university like
Atkinson and Chancellor Albert

C'arnesalc. are only eligible for the
same raises other VC employees may
receive.

Last year, aftej- the regents voted

outrage.

As part of a program to improve
the quality of undergraduate educa-
tion, largely through the improvement
of the student-to-facully ratio, the bud-
get allocates $6 million to the universi-
ty. The university^ plan is to increase
that amount to S50 million per year.
— The UC'&goal is to low -crihc~cpr-^

rent IS. 7-1 ratio to 17.6-1.

Funding is also provided for gradu-
ate students through research-related
funding which totals about $60 mil-
lion.

For DC medical centers, there is a
one-lime $75 million allocation for
equipment purchases, $50 million for
infrastructure needs, and $600 million
in bond revenues for earthquake-safe-
ty renovations.

There is also $75 million for the cre-
ation of three California Institutes for
Science and Innovation that will allow
students, faculty and industry scien-
tists to do research important to

UCLA's prof>osal, which was made
in conjunction with UC Santa

"This is focused on the realm of the

those receiving top scores tradi-
tionally come from wealthy fami-
lies with less need for the scholar-

According to a 1997 report by
the University of California

sist of underrepresented minority

Also, at each economic level.
African American and Latino stu-
dents consistently receive the low-

Calhoun said such tests are
biased.

"The bottom line is that you cre-
ate this assessment system that sort
of rewards some students, but you
don't supply an equal opportunity
education to all," he said.

"In California where this sort of
standardized test is like a one size

EXCLUSION: Being American in

Brian
Fishman

Japan brings same oslracization,
'cliques' as for minorities in U.S.

The sign said my plane was going to Japan
and it did. But it also wound up landing
me. a white American, on the opposite
side of the social fence. This fence separates
Japanese from a motley
collaboration of anyone
who is not native-
Japanese.

And it's starting to get
on my nerves.

I'm tired of people leer-
ing at me out of the cor-
ners of their eyes. Vm tired
of catching the tail end of
the word "gaijin" (a
derogatory Japanese word
for foreigner) as I walk

down the street, given that

there are many other ways
to classify me. And I've only been here three
months. What is a lifetime of subtle, and some-
times not-so-subtle, social exclusion like?

It's frustrating.

People won't sit next to me on the train. All
other seats will fill up and people will pass the
seats next to me. They will stand rather than sit
near me as if I'm contagious.

And, though it makes my ride more comfort-
able (which is no small condolence on the sub-
way in Tokyo), it's annoying. I catch those side-
ways glances and imagine what people are say-
ing.

"What's that 'gaijin' doing here?"

"Don't get too close. You'll catch 'white-
ness.'"

In the long run, that kind of tacit discrimina-
tion is more wounding than the more. rare and
overt forms of racial intolerance.

Have you heard of the "Japanese Only" bars
that dot the landscape on the west side of tlie
Pacific'^ I hadn't until one bartender raised my
ire and her finger toward the door when a group
of UC students walked into her establishment.
In heavily accented but completely understand-
able English, she blurted, "Japanese.Only!"

Intolerance fiowed out with her words, but
the disdain in her eyes was more telling.

Though instances like these are dramatic, it ib

the constant social exclusion that is most frus-
trating.

Before becoming a cultural minority, I did
not understand the tacii sense of embattlement
that can be seen among marginalized groups in
the United States. For an American in Japan,
there is something altogether comforting about
speaking English, just as there is in comparing
stories of discrimination. -

One incident includes being watched in a toy
store. I was not going to steal anything, but the
hawk behind the counter would not believe that.
At another time, while at the Post OlTice. a child
derided a friend, calling him "hakudou" - white
creature.

I do not want to give a false impression of
Japan. The vast majority of Japanese people I
have run across are extraordinarily friendly and
some are almost embarrassingly excited about

the United States and its citizens. And. as in the
United States, the young tend to hold more lib-
eral ideas while the elderly hold the political
power, the money, and the stagnating ideas
about justice.

For the most part, the dynamics of discrimi-
nation are very similar on either side of the
Pacific. The most important point to be made is
that very few people in both the United States
and Japan actively abhor those across the social
fence. After spending time on both sides of this
obstruction, it is easy to see that this barrier is
built not of hate, but of misunderstanding.

This misunderstanding is built on media
images, historical misinterpretations and a lack
of constructive cultural interaction. It breeds
mistrust.

Unfortunately, in addition to the basic levels
of misunderstanding that evolve from different

cultural practices, many of the methods by
which cultural minorities face exclusion are mis-
understood by mainstream America.

After being an outsider for a while, you can't
help but want to be on the inside of something;
So we Americans clad in distinctive jerseys
started to take the field in soccer tournaments
and plan a month early for an Independence
Day celebration. (I never considered the barbe-
cue an important cultural symbol until now.)
Strength and kinship were found through a
derogatory word and plans for a public celebra-
tion of unity among individuals whd feel they
are on society's fringe. Sound familiar?

Such jerseys and elaborate Independence
Day celebrations are parallel to the African
Student Union's "Endangered Species" shirts,

INTERNSHIPS: Center lets
Students explore avenues,

By Dario Bravo

I have been at the EXPO

Internship and Study Abroad
Services Office of the UCLA Career
Center for some 15 years. During my
time here 1 have seen a number of stu-
dents lake advantage of internship
and other experiential educational
opportunities. I have, however, also
encountered students who have decid-
ed to lake part in these programs
much too late or who have ignored
them.

Albert Schweitzer once said, "1

but one thing I know : the only ones
among you who will be really happy
are those who will have sought and

Bravo is manager of the EXPO Intern-

found how to serve." I believe that it
is essential that every student put to
practical use their academic training
received at UCLA. As a form of expe-
riential learning, internships illow stu-
dents an opportunity that classroom
instruction cannot give them.

Students can employ their class-
room knovyledge as a probe to
explore a challenging set of new expe-
riences.

(jaining significant work experi-
ence, as well as ihc opportunity for
self-evaluation, are some of the bene-
fits of participating m internships.
Opportunity stands out as the com-
pelling force behind our baby steps
and our giant leaps lorward.'Whether
you choose to view your internship as
a baby step or a giant leap is a person-
al matter. But few can deny the per-
sonal growth and opportunities that
have arisen from the internship expe-
rience.

Not too long ago. I spoke with Dr.
Fiijimoto. Director of the Office of
Public AITairs at the Department o\'
l:ducatioii. He spoke about a group
of 12 UCLA interns who worked in
his office during the suiiuiu-r of \^)^N

in Wasfiinglon. D.Cs One ol their

assignments was to produce a video
for the Department of Education.

The video, titled "D.C. Reads,"
was about a reading program within
the inner-city schools of the District
of Columbia. The UCLA interns
wrote the script, picked the actors,
video taped, selected the music, and
edited the video.

The video has received rave
reviews from the Department of
Education staff and is now beirl^
shown throughout various school dis-
tricts and boards of education across
the country. The 12 UCLA students
not only profiled tremendously from
their internship but also made a sig-
nificant contribution to the
Department of Education and to the
schoolchildren of the District o\'
Columbia.

When students get back from their
internships., they tend to be much
' moi e.Jocused and willing to become
involved. I have seen students gain a
liemendous sense of confidence as

A successful internship ena'bles a
student to develop skills for organiz-
ing information and solving problems
that are standard tooU for a practic-
ing professional.

I recently spoke with a student who
is interning at the White House
through our spring quarter program.
She mentioned that when she first
arrived there, she was somewhat inse-
cure about her qualifications for her
assigned position. She was deter-
mined, however, to prove herself able.
She took on the attitude of don't look
now, but opportunity is knocking. She
completed every task quickly and
thoroughly.

As a result of her desire to succeed,
she has been offered a full-time stall'
position through the end of the
Clinton administration. She will
return to UCLA in the winter quarter
of 2001 to complete her degree.

Police need to contain violence

Trisha
Kirk

STAPLES: With upcoming
Democratic convention,
LAPD must Step up plan

There were two showdowns at
the Staples Center the night
__ the Lakers took the N BA title
in Game 6. Watching Kobe Bryant
take those final free throws, the
crowd inside the Staples Center .
Ichewll was sfll
over for the
Pacers. The
Lakers barely
beat Indiana
116-1 II. The
tense and
sweaty battle on
the court made
the Lakers and
all of Los
Angeles victori-
ous.

But the other

contest that

night was a conclusive loss: Rioters 1,
LAPD 0. When ecstatic Lakers fans
got out of control after the game,
police officers made the situation
worse by not stopping the mayhem
before it caused serious damage.

After watching the finale on the
Jumbo-Tron outside the center that
broadcast the game to fans in the
parking lot, revelers burned T-shirts
and posters and lit bonfires in nearby
streets. The 60 police officers on the
scene wriggled into riot gear but the
celebrating escalated.

Two police cars were torched,
businesses were vandalized and loot-
ed, a bus was set ablaze and a fire
hydrant was opened. An SUV, a UPS
truck and two news vans were van-
dalized and reporters were assaulted.
And in the spreading commotion,li:
dozen people were injured.

What is worse than all this insanity
is the fact that the LAPD was right
there watching it. They watched a
crowd of 6,000 bombard the streets
and stop traffic. They watched fans
tear branches from trees and use
them to set police cruisers on fire.
They watched people tear down

street signs, and it seemed they did
next to nothing to stop or deter them.
Eventually police did use rubber bul-
lets and tear gas to slow the crowd,
but made only 1 1 arrests. My
thoughts echo a question thrown out
by a news anchor during a live broad-
cast of the riot: "Where were the
policed ., ^ -:"\^

Clearly not dbihgllie jbF we pay"
them to do. It is one thing for fans to
celebrate a hometown win and quite
"another lo^anTagepfoperfy, assaiitl
bystanders and wreak havoc near a
crowded sports arena and private
homes. The revelers were celebrating
with destruction and the police were
allowing them to do it. ,: i

Police Chief Bernard Parks and
Mayor Richard Riordan praised the
officers involved for controlling the
crowd in a small area around Staples
Center and maintaining a strong
approach toward the violent offend-
ers. But the crowd was not con-
tained. Violence erupted in other
places, including Westwood, where
police reportedly used tear gas to
fight a crowd outside Moloney's and
one man was arrested for battery of a
police officer.

Protecting life is
more important than
trying to maintain a

virtuous image.

As for the tactics employed, some
who watched the rioting on TV argue
that the command stall directing the
officers on the street was incompe-
tent and officers should have been
ordered to forcefully stop the crowd
before it got out of hand.

The police at the center were out-
numbered, but did not call for back-
up. Why didn't the LAPD call in
more officers to stop the violence
before their own cruisers were fried
on the street and fans were injured?

Officers may have been fearful of
being cited for any retaliation against
individuals in the crowd. Police
might have also feared provoking the
crowd further by asserting control.
But when this type of violence and
property damage occurs, measures

need to be taken to stop it, even if
they are violent ones. Protecting life
is more important that trying to
maintain a virtuous image.

Fan violence isn't a new phenome-
non. In 1990. seven people died and
a hundred were injured in Detroit
when the Pistons squashed the *
^ Portland Trailblazers in the N B A _-
Championships. When the Bulls beat
the Blazers in Chicago two years
later, two officers were shot. 61
pottorcars were damaged and hOO^-
rioters were arrested. And in 1996,
revelers celebrating the Bruins' victo-
ry at the NCAA Championships
went on a destructive rampage in

• Westwood. '^i ;■;:..■;-;'. r',v-,j;^^'.''^''v'/..^

These riots make the Lakers dis-
turbance look like a disagreement at
a tea party. Maybe rioting is a sports
tradition. Maybe the Jumbo-Tron got
everyone riled up, already drunk on
their 3.2 percent-alcoholic sports
arena beer. Nevertheless, this kind of
violence should never be allowed to . •
escalate syhen police have the means
to control it. jn addition to the harm
it caused, the Lakers riot just con-
tributes to-Jhe bad image out-of-
towners already have of this city and
the people who live here.

If this is what happens after a bas-
ketball game, what may happen dur-
ing the Democratic National
Convention in August terrifies me.
At a Lakers game, fans riot because
they are pumped up and intoxicated
by the game. But the thousands of
protesters expected at the DNC have
real reasons to disturb the peace that
go beyond an impulsive emotional
surge. The same coalition that invad-
ed the World Trade Organization
talks in Seattle and the International
Monetary Fund meetings in
Washington, D.C. may plan a protest
strategy for Los Angeles. Unions will
be marching and protesters from
evsry organization that feels stepped
on will be at the Staples Center
protesting against wage inequality,
multinational corporations, environ-
mental catastrophe and corporate
greed. They will wave signs, block
entrances and make a real mess of
things. Unless the LAPD gets its act
together people and property are
going to get hurt.

Parks recently told the Los
Angeles Business Journal that he

Cinco de Mayo celebrations and St.
Patrick's Day and Gay Pride
parades. All aim to celebrate culture.
And all aim to show unity. And while
some are more politically motivated
than others, all are purposeful
demonstrations of pride.

•M-;

At another tiine, a child
derided a friend, calling

hlm"Tiakud6u7^
(Japanese for)
"white creature."

But, I think such demonstrations
oftentimes confuse those on the
mainstream side of the fence.
Certainly our jerseys attracted some
strange looks. We were misunder-
stood. Why, a Japanese friend of
mine asked, did we Americans want
to flaunt our "gaijin" status? (Though
it's tough for a 6-foot-2-inch
Caucasian to blend in, most of my
teammates were Asian American and
not as immediately noticeable.) My
friend, like me before my visit to
Asia, did not understand what subtle
exclusion feels like. Hence, he did not
understand the appeal of overt dis-
plays of unity.

In the United States these demon-
strations are sometimes perceived as
an overly confrontational flaunting
of cultural unity - even superiority.
But that's not the case. Bold displays
of unity, from unifying jerseys to
parades, are simply opportunities for
the excluded to celebrate themselves
when few else will. ; v* ^

And, though difficuU for some on
the mainstream side of the fence to
understand, that does not imply reci-
procal exclusion by cultural minori-
ties. And while reciprocal exclusion
no doubt occurs, only the truly short-
sighted practice such a blatantly
destructive ritual.

After being an outsider

for a while, you can't

help but want to be

'^on the inside of

something.

Exclusion is about misunderstand-
ing and miscommunication across
the slowly shrinking social fence.
Sometimes I am reminded of how
low that fence can be. '

Last week I was walking alone
through a street crowded with
Japanese individuals. Suddenly, from
nowhere, I hear someone speaking
English.

"What's up?" said an Afi-ican
American man handing out flyers to
passersby.

1 paused, surprised. And then a
look of understanding and cama-
raderie passed between us.

Shaking his outreached hand, I
said, "Nx)t much, my friend,"
because that's what he was.

ers of culture we ourselves have

the world; many others are surviving.

draws the line when protests inter-
ftfte with procession of events or
business. "We recognize the First
Amendment rights of people to
express their opinion, but those
rights do not preclude others' rights.
And there is no license to disrupt
business in this city," he said. If this
is truly the policy that Parks aims to
follow, the LAPD needs to start
practicing what it preaches before
the DNC becomes a rerun of the
Lakers riot.

The convention this summer may
go smoothly. Protesters could peace-
fully make their points and police
could have an easy time handling the
crowd. But looking at the history of
U.S. political conventions, this
seems rather unlikely. When protest-
ers unite behind a cause, a mob men-
tality ensues. People get carried
away, as they did after the Lakers
victory, and that is a risk to life and
property.

A riotous atmosphere may arise at
the DNC. Unless the LAPD and the
other officials in charge are prepared
to control the protests before real
damage is done, then we can't expect
much better than the Game 6 after-
math: bonfires, vandalism, injury
and an increasingly tarnished image
of Los Angeles.

Reva Rice performs 'Mein Herr' from 'Fosse,' a Tony Award-win-

legendary choreographer and director.

Smash musical celebrates
legendary choreographer

THEATER; Tiibute to Fosse
includes talented dancers,
brings stage-magic to L.A.

By Barbara McGuire

Daily Bruin Senior Staff

Thirteen years after his death,
award winning choreographer Bob
Kosse has magically made waves on
the Broadway scene once again.

Director Richard Maltby Jr. and
Ann Remking are bringing the style
and spirit of Fosse to the stage - right
down to his trademark hats and toe
moves. The two are combining his
various works from television to
Broadway productions into a show
simply titled, "Fosse."

Running through July 9 at the
Shubert Theatre in Los Angeles, the
current company has been perform-
ing 'Fosse" since September 1999
when they started the tour in
Chicago.

Headlining the show is the multi-
talented Reva Rice with her domi-
neering stage presence and deep
voice, lliough the show consists of
various scenes from hosse's wide pal-
let of work, each is seamlessly lied
together in an overall connected
show. Greats such as "Bye Bye
Blackbird" and "Dancin* Man" arc
included i<n the show, and though each
has a completely different clement to
it, they make sense together.

Tlie night is. after all, a celebration
of the choreographing wonder, Fosse,
who is the first director in history to
have won the Oscar, Tony and Emmy
award in a a in gic y e a r fo r hi s fi l m v cr -

musical "Pippin" and his television
special "Liza with a Z."

Fosse's credits don't rest here,
though. He was the recipient of nine
Tony Awards, as well as numerous
other Emmys and Oscars, for his var-
ious musical shows, in addition to his
work on television and film. Fosse
demonstrated his talents through act-
ing and directing as much as he did
through choreography.

Although the two-hour long show
does not fully acknowledge all of
Fosse's talent, it does give viewers a
good taste of it. The opening number,
"Life is Just a Bowl of Cherries," sets
the upbeat mood of the show and the
dancers, ranging from classical/mod-
ern trained to Broadway gypsies,
truly seem to enjoy the performance.

One of the numbers "Big
Spender," features only women
dancers in loudly styled and colored
outfits comically attempting to entice
a man to be a "big spender." This
piece demonstrates the true talent of
those on stage. Those involved with
"Fosse" arc not just dancers, but
singers as well as actors. With each
scene they are required to take on
new roles, from a prostitute to a Hap-
per, which is in no way an easy task.
Especially notable is the performance
by Terace Jones, whose solo com-
bines break-dance type moves with
the grace of ballet.

The concluding number, "Sing,
Sing. Sing" from "Dancin'," no
doubt leaves the crowd aching for
more of I osse's remarkable style. A
traditional style jazz quintet complete
with drums, a piano, a trumpet, a clar-
inet and a trombone is brought out

Heat and exhaustion were expected at the all-day
summer festival of punk rock and skateboarding, but
the exorbitant prices made the Warped Tour seem
more focused on business than fun.

This year's concert filled the Awowhead Pond's
parking lot in Anaheim with bustling pre-teens and
teenagers on Thursday, June 29. With that in mind, the
$10 parking and other expenses should have been
more controlled.

Ticket prices averaged $25 and bottled water was
priced at $3.50. This, along with the countless promo-
tional dot. com booths contradicted the punk dogma of
anti-corporation, dampening the atmosphere.

Each band's set lasted 30 minutes and scheduling
was closely monitored.

There were moments when

getting kicked in the head

— actually became tolerable

because fans were^o happy to

see the much anticipated acts.

But it was during this short amount of time that the
bands brought out the best in their fans by thanking
them and letting them fill in their lyrics as the sets pro-
gressed. There were moments when getting kicked in
the head actually became tolerable because fans were
so happy to see the much anticipated acts.

Good Riddance, TSOL, Lunachicks, and Snapcase
played the early part of the festival which began at
noon. Stages one and two, the main stages, were locat-
ed adjacent to one another, but stage three was set up
closer to the entrance causing a few inconveniences
when trying to get back and forth between the perfor-
mances.

At 2:30 p.m.. The Suicide Machines assumed stage
one and energy levels increased driven by its positive
skacore and power riff style.

Local Anaheim based Massengil showed up to play
i>n unannouinced side set, bringing back old school
hardcore punk which the band played years ago while
skating when the venue used to be a trailer park.

The group was thoughtful enough to pass out food
and water at no cost to dehydrated fans. Additionally,
ii couple of large tents with water mistef s were set up

on the grounds to remedy the heat.

Flogging Molly played its bagpipe influenced punk
tunes and ijitroduced NOFX to the largest crowd of
the day. The band assumed the stage in typical NOFX
style with plastic bottles being thrown onstage and El
Hefe and Fat Mike cracking jokes. Its set started with
the slow and melodic intro of "Together on the Sand"
which erupted into a chaotic mess of crowd surfers
and mosh pits.

Fans sang the entirety of the short tune "Murder
the Government" and demanded an encore at the con-
clusion of the band's performance. The crowd, howev-
er, was disappointed because the schedule operated
like clockwork, precluding any impromptu musical
tangents.

On the third stage, the politically conscious Anti-
Flag greeted the crowd with a message of unity. The
band encouraged everyone to take care of one another
through positive anti-racism and anti-war sentiments,
e%)ressed in songs such as "Got the Numbers" and

interview. "With 15 years experience of

cutting, we knew how to cut the movie,
like with the perspective of sleeping and
looking back at it. That's why we cut
Blood Simple.'"

But some things remain the same.
While their storytelling and techniques
may have evolved, their unique style was
evident at the beginning of their career.

. "We were shooting the scene where
Steve Buscemi was pulling the body off
the road in 'Fargo,'" Joel said, "and we're
looking at it and we (knew) we'd done
that before (in 'Blood Simple')."

"It's the limits of imagination," he
mused. ; :

The critics and fans don't seem to
think so. At seeing "Fargo" in March
1996. late film critic Gene Siskel predict-
ed he wouldn't see a better movie that
year. He was right. Both Siskel and his
then-partner Roger Ebert gave their cov-
eted No. 1 movie of the year spot to
"Fargo."

Fans have also shown fascination with
the Coens' films. According to a 1994
Premiere magazine article, a student
wrote his thesis on the Coens' 1990 film.
"Miller's Crossing," and sent the the
brothers a questionnaire on what the
symbols and happenings really mean.

Their fans' interest amuses them
though.

"You make these stupid movies,"
Ethan said in the article, "and then a year
later you've got homework. It's really *
kind of alarming."

Even at the top of their game as direc-
tors, producers and Academy-award win-
ning screenwriters, the Coens are still
somewhat of an anomaly in Hollywood.
They are not given deadlines for their
films nor do their films usually require big
budgets, except in the case of "The
Hudsucker Proxy" ($25 million).

Faced with a dozen journalists at a
Hollywood hotel, the Coens answer the
questions tersely with few soundbite-
friendly quotes. But they are able to talk
at length about the filmmaking process,
equipment and techniques that sound
foreign to the average moviegoer.
Dressed in well-worn plaid shirts and
jeans, the Coens don't seem to have let
fame or Hollywood affect them or their
work. They're just thankful they don't
need a second job.

Waring Hudsucker, plunges 44 floors to

You'll find such moments in all their

Goodman.

that tightrope when they kill someone otT

It may have started with their first film.
I985's "Blood Simple," a crime thriller
that explores just how many circum-

are.

Starring Frances McDormand (1997
best actress Academy Award winner for
"Fargo") and Dan Hedaya, "Blood
Simple" is being re-cut and re-released by
USA Films Friday, July 7.

The story takes place in Texas, in a
worid of smoky bars, dusty roads, clunky
Pontiac cars and guys who look like they
stepped off "The Dukes of Hazard."
With echoes of "Fargo," the plot sur-
rounds bar owner Julian (Hedaya) who
discovers his wife Abby's infidelity and
hires a vulgar detective (M. Emmet
Walsh) to kill her (McDormand) and her
lover (John Getz).

However, everyone has ideas of their
own about who should get elixpinated.

way to kill is. Burying someone alive and
throwing corpses into an incinerator are
just a couple of the ways used in the film.

The MiGs
"The MiGs"
Self-Released

Every young child who aspired to
be a fighter pilot from the "Top
Gun" era remembers MiGs to be the
evil, shadowy airplanes llown by evil,
shadowy Communists, an emblem of
all things un-American and nasty.
Thus, hstening to the self-titled album
by this L.A. sextet is a little confus-
ing.

The name belies a tough, over-
bearmg military force, but the music
is as far removed from that image as
possible. Frontman Bernard Yin's
airy, enjoyable vocals dance around
above deliciously cheesy synthesizers
and dippy guitars to make for some
killer tunes. '

This isn't the music of faceless,
oppressive Soviets— it's corny fun at
its best. On the eight-song album, the
band crafts an odd blend of Beach
Boys pop. They Might Be Giants
eclecticism and. well, just about any-
thing else that comes along.

Though the MiGs steer clear of
overtly serious territory, the band can
definitely put together some interest-
ing blends. " 1600 Armadillos" bor-
rows Nashville country guitars, "Too
Many People" kicks off in a funk

groove and "Honolulu" could be
come straight from your dentist's
waiting room.

Not too many groups can switch
gears from hard rock to easy listening
convincingly, butj[jese guys rise to —
the task without too much trouble.
Even the mariachi-esque excursion of

— ^'Muchaeha #^"^omes across

impressively, largely due to the addi-
tion of DJ Bonebrake on marimba
and JefT Veal on trumpet. ___ -^

So while the group may not live up
to its tough-sounding name, it suc-
ceeds in crafting some tasty tunes.
Those looking to raise their con-
sciousness may want to look else-
where, but for folks just looking for a
good time, the MiGs are your band.

Pitchshifter
"Deviant"
MCA Records

Pitchshifter once played on
MTV's Spring Break Special where
lead singer Jonathan Clayden and
company hit the stage and let it rip.

But the dumbfounded looks in .
the audience revealed that no one
knew quite what to think or feel.
After listening to their latest album,
"Deviant," neither will you.

Considering today's tonally-chal-
lenged rock scene, it's somewhat of
a miracle that Pitchshifter isn't a
certified star. In a market saturated
with abrasive guitar work and bar-
baric drumming, the Nottingham.
England outfit have quietly carved
out a legion of fans based on the

strength of industrial-sized guitar
riffs and danceable breakbeats.

"Deviant" builds on
Pitchshifter's hook-friendly back
catalogue with the' same emphasis

~on solid pop-smithing, allthe white"
staying true to the aggression and
intensity that characterizes the

— group "s ii YejihowSx Al time s.

"Deviant" tend to be dominated by
schizophrenia and chaos, leaving
you feeling like one of those dazed
spring-breakers.

"Deviant" starts out heavy and
powerful with "Condescension," a
rock track with a throbbing dance
pulse that represents some of
Pitchshifter's strongest work to
date. While the band could have
easily remade "Genius," the smash-
single from "www.pitchshifter.com"
a dozen times over, tracks like
"Condescension" and the menacing
"Chump Change" show a renewed
commitment to diversifying their
potent industrial formula.

"Dead Battery," a groove-heavy
guitar track, and "As Seen on TV,"
a song that features Dead
Kennedy's legend Jello Biafra, are
also easy favorites for new fans.

The album's bouts of schizophre-
nia originate not so much from the
music per se, but rather the produc-
tion. "Deviant" runs so perfectly
smoothly at times, you'll wish a gui-
tar would slip out of tune for just
for a second.

In short, it's a rock album with
electronica-precision production,
and as a result, a lot of the rawness
and visceral kick of Pitchshifter live
isn't captured. Nevertheless, it's a
reason to see the band in the flesh.

and "Deviant" certainly won't dis-
appoint hardcore fans. '

Sleater-Kinney

"All Hands on the Bad One"

Kill Rock Stars '

Sleater-Kinney's fifth album is
filled with catchy melodies coupled
with complex lyrics and vocal
arrangements. Each of the 13 tracks
carries with it a depth and richness
that is rare to find nowadays. " iL

"The Ballad of a Ladyman," the
album's lead song, exhibits the band's
expansiveness. The guitar introduc-
tion is low and quiet, but the power-
f^l'vocals, performed by all members
of the trio, overlap each other while
themes of breaking guitars and the
life of a girl band are included.

But Sleater-Kinney is not only lim-
ited to being a girl band. It is full
range of abilities and talent is evident
in following tracks.

"Youth Decay" holds a refiective
tone and conveys a somber, melan-
cholic mood reminding us of the con-
flicting issue of a parent/child rela-
tionship.

It yields a very serious social com-
.mentary through a song that is very
easy to listen to. Also, its aggressive
vocals immediately confront the lis-
tener since there is no introduction.

Additionally, "Was it a Lie?"
retells the tragedy of a young girl's
suicide. Slow tempos, overlapping
vocals, profound lyrics, and building
percussion sounds shape this track
on multiple levels.

Perhaps the catchiest and most
memorable track is "You're No
Rock 'n' Roll Fun" because of the
simple guitar riffs and arrangements,
as well as the harmonies. More good
limes with a girl band are expressed^
here but the song has a well-crafted
and finished sound of its own.

A nother standout track is "Leave
You Behind" a tune tharcbrnTorts tlie"
listener over the emotions of break-
ing up through beautifully sung har- ■
monies with lines such as: "Wonder
how you looked the day you were
erased/Did you disappear?/Were you
just misplaced?/ Left behind with no '^
one else to blame/Are you letting
go?/Somelhing lingers on...."

More intensity and depth are com-
municated in "#1 Must-Have"
through calm melodies and heated '
lyrics, "Inspiration rests in between
my beauty magazines and my credit .^.
card bills." The chorus replies with,
"No More!" and the second part
leads with "Now is the time."

Lastly, one of the concluding
tracks on "All Hands on the Bad
One" is the analogous and witty
"Milk Shake n' Honey," an expan-
sive track that contains experimental
and innovative vocals. It is a perfect-
ly solid ending track for an equally
solid album.

'Plums' delivers lightweight read

FOSSE

From page 14

BOOKS: Southern-tinged
novel entertains, but fails
to locate serious themes

By Sharon Hori

Daily Bruin Senior Staff

Whenever it seems like there's
nothing to do in Westwood, just be
thankful your life isn't like the aver-
age Joe's in southern Georgia, as
"seen thTougF tlie Tyes oT authoT
Bailey White.

. Plant pathologist Roger
Meadows becomes the talk of his
southern Georgia town when he's
pictured on the front page of
Agrisearch, holding two peanut
plants, one sick and one healthy.
Apparently the photographer was
supposed to take pictures of some
red wattle hogs in Sam Martin's new
automatic feeder pens, but couldn't
get the doors open. A picture of
Roger just had to sufTice. _ ~v v

Now, this may seem a little dry for
the average L.A. dweller, when in
fact - well, it just is. But it's also the
introduction to White's latest novel,
"Quite a Year for Plums," in which
the hero, Roger, manages to snag a
front-page photo, as well as the
attention of half the town's women.

But no matter how much of a stud
Roger may seem to be - White
writes that "for some reason the pic-
ture had come out amazingly good in
every respect" - Roger's life is not in
picture-perfect order. That's when
White opens the doors to Roger's
family, whose thrill-seeking lives lack
good direction.

The story kicks off like a minia-
ture soap opera without the breath-
taking scandals - or maybe they're

just toned down a little to adjust to
the setting. The characters have no
difficulty identifying their struggles,
but it's frustrating that they do noth-
ing about them.

Roger's ex-wife Ethel, a school
teacher who left him for a "little gui-
tar-strumming nincompoop from
Nashville' with a goatee" later runs
off with a man who finds a drooling
fascination with electric fans. fYes,
readers will chuckle at this fact until
they find that White devotes an
entire cKapterT "1914 General
Electric Fan with Collar Oscillator,"
to this phenomenon, in which the
fan man finds one more rotating
wonder for his collection.) Ethel's
mother, Louise, is a half-crazed
believer in outer-space aliens who
insists that little men painted her
windows green. ;; /: ,

And that's where the novel loses
its glow. White's hometown in south-
ern Georgia is the setting where
schoolteachers gossip, wives run
away with a new man every year, and
old mothers believe extraterrestrial
life will invade their homes any day
now. Oh, and once in a while some-
one will host a library picnic or a live-
stock convention - but until then,
readers and townsfolk will find
themselves twiddling their thumbs.

The story does not delve deep into
superfluous detail, nor does the plot
float at the surface of a superficial,
unfulfilling read. The light-weighted
drama balances humor and conflict,
tirelessly treading without suspense
to weigh it down.

And suspense is what the readers
will crave. Not just the overexagger-
ated action, such as when the fan
man sneaks back into the restaurant
to steal a collector's 1914 GE 940566
(you daredevil, you!). Readers want

fire, passion, action - elements that
White's novel lacks, leaving her
unsatiated audiences hanging and
feeling indifferent.

Of course, the novel suggests
some deeper underlying themes,
such as the need for transience and
perseverance, but the tale is lacking
in substance. While we^can some-
times relate to the characters' trou-
bles (falling in love, suffering from
painter's block, not having the elec-
tric fan of your dreams), we are left
alone with their troubles and their
lack of initiative. :: -

White, author of national best-
sellers "Mama Makes Up Her
Mind" and "Sleeping in the Starlite
Motel," is also a commentator on

telling is simple and sweet, tame

Unfortunately, readers who look for
anything more than that may have to
move away from southern Georgia.

standard swing moves as well as some
new moved the swing era has never

Masses of people filled the venue
in hopes of getting as close to the

ended up knocking over side bara-

resulted.

Reggae artists Long Beach Dub
Allstars followed soon after, calming
the crowd with "Rosarito." "My Own

The rap metal outfit Papa Roach
earned the privilege of closing the
show at 8 o'clock even though other
bands on the bill had longer standing
careers.

Even though the bands dijlivered a
sundry of musical flavors, the pre-
dominating taste left by the lineup,

indicative of the fact that this year's

CHAMPIONSHIPS

From page 28

Michelle Perry and former Bruin
Joanna Hayes in Ihe 400m hurdles.

Rounding out the Bruin rosier of
both current and incoming athletes
were five other competitors. Current
Bruin women include freshmen Tiffany
Burgess, who placed seventh in the

~^800m; Julie Stevenson, who competed
in the high jump; and Bridget Pearson,

^ho competed in the pole vauHr

On the men's side. Chuck Ryan com-
peted in the lOOm hurdles and placed
_rifth with a lifetime best of 14.01, while
Kyle Erickson did not qualify for the

finals in the 400m hurdles.

The incoming women recruits at the
meet placed well overall at the junior
national. Jessica Cosby, the two-time
L.A. City champion in tl^hot put, out
of Grover Cleveland ^^ School in
Reseda, placed second in the shot put

with her persooal record throw of 50-3

1/2. .-»*■:•■/:•:.„'•;■.:"•;■ ,^y.

Lana Saye, two-time Nevada State
champion in the shot put and discus, out
of Silverado High School in Henderson,
Nev., placed third in the discus also with
her personal best of 166- 9 . ^ — ^

On the men's side, Ven^gas has
recruited what looks to be an impressive
class of athletes. In particular are sprint-
ers Warren Rogers, Trevor Jones and

Oliver Jackson.

Rogers, of Serra High School in
Gardena, is described by Venegas as
"one of the most talented sprinters in
the USA." Rogers is the state champion
in the lOOrh dash. Jones, of Newport
Harbor High School in Newport Beach,
is the state champion in the 300m hur-
dles and runner-up in the llOm high
hurdles. Jacksoh is the state champion
in the long jump and is ranked No: 5 on
the U.S. prep list. " '

"These guys are really front-line, and
xan help right aAvay," Venegas sard: — ^

Sporting an impressive roster of
young talent, the UCLA track and field
teams look to continue their tradition
excellence throughout the summer.

SHRINE ^

From page 26

The field goal was reminw-
cent of an earlier Kluwe kick
that won the game. In a
Southern section quarterfinal
game against Loyola High,
Kluwe kicked a 60-yard field
goal to send the game into over-
Time. Los Alamitos eVenluallyr
won the game^in double-over-
(Ifne.

His 53-yard kick also broke
the previous Shrine Game
record, which was a 52-yard
field goal by Armando Avina of

East Union in 1991.

Perry was named the
California MVP. Not that it
manered to him.

"This is the team's MVP tro-
phy," Perry told
SchoolSports.com. "I couldn't
have done it without them."

Texas running back Vontez
Duff, who rushed for a game-
high 94 ya rds and a to uchdow n^
was named his team's MVP.
Not that it mattered to him

either "^

"Bottom line, we came here
to win and we came up short,"
he said. "It's all a parr of foot-
ball, but it still hurts to lose."

Lakers had one sole pick at No. 29 in the
first round and waived forward A.C-
Green earlier in the day. They look
Stanford's Mark Madsen to fill that
vacancy immedttrtely. Mad se n looks to
be the defensive workhorse who should
take the rebounding pressure off
Shaquillc O'Neal.

The Lakers then traded two future sec-
ond round picks to the Spurs for the draft
rights to Indian Hills (Iowa) Community
College guard Corey Hightower. the 54th
pick in the draft.

The New Jersey Nets, with the top
pick, landed Cincinnati power forward
and National Player of the Year Kenyon
Martin. The Vancouver Grizzlies took
LSLJ forward Stromile Swit^ with the sec-
ond pick before the Clippers selected

In its moVt recent and final ruling
regarding Rush, the NCAA could have
ruled for UCLA to repay as much as 90
percent of its earnings ($90,720) if it fell

at the school knew Rtish^vasineHgible ;
the time.

"The precedent in these types of sUi

tions is if the school did not know nor
should have known about the studenl-alh-
lete's-piirticipatioiv in activities that coulcL
render the individual ineligible, the penalty
is 45 percent," Jankowski said. "If the
school knew or should have known, then it
most likely would have been higher."

The NCAA also found Texas Tech and
Arizona guilty for using ineligible players
and ruled for both of the schools to relurn
money.

Texas Tech must return $282,800 for
using ineligible players during the 1996
Tournament, while Arizona must relurn
$45,321 because former Wildcat guard

But Texas mounted an impressive 20-point
iback in the second half behind three
touchdown passes by quarterback Aaron
Karas. After the last of these touchdowns, a
pass from Karaslo Shirdonya M itchelj in the
fourth quarter* with 17 seconds left on the
clock, put Texas up 27-26, it looked like Texas
would finally have its first Shrine Game vic-
tory.

But then California's Jason Wright
returned the kickoff 30 yards to the
California 43 yard-line, Texas was called for a
personal-foul penalty That gave California an
additional 15 yards, and Perry caught a six-
yard pass to put the ball on the Texas 36 yard-
line.

And all tfiat, in the end, only set the scene
for Kluwe's kick.

ings name athletic department No. 2" (June
26-June 30), I felt it was unfair to criticize the
six-lime Sears Cup-winning Stanford athletics
program for fielding more teams than UCLA.

Stanford should be commended for its
melding of athletic and academic excellence.
The school's effort and success at oCfering its
6,500 undergraduates a wide spectrum of
opportunities for male and female student ath-
letes should serve as a role model for all
schools. Even UCLA, with its 20,000-plus
undergraduate population.

Team Bruin takes 1 9th at
Santa Qara International

RECAP; Participants use
meet a s p reparation for
upcoming Olympic trials

ByPauRneVu

Daily Bruin Senior Sta^

Against some of the nation's and
world's top talent at the recent Santa
Clara International Swim Meet,
UCLA women's swimmers, compet-
ing as a summer club called Team
Bruin, garnered 97.5 team points to
place 19th.

"It was just another meet where
we all learned things," Bruin senior
Keiko Price said. "We just went to
get experience."

This experience should be crucial
come Aug. 9 when the U.S. Olympic
swim trials start. Several of the
Bruins who participated in the Santa
Clara Invite will be going to the tri-
als. ■.: V: •'-^' .

"These meets are just stepping-
stones, just tuneups for Olympic tri-
als," said UCLA head coach Cyndi
Gallagher. *.

The Bruins appear to be right on
track. Price broke her personal
record in the SO-meter freestyle with
a time of 25.93 seconds, her fir§t
time under the 26-second barrier.

Her mark tied her with 1992
Olympic gold medalist Ashley
Tappin and placed her ahead of 1996
Olympic gold medalist Catherine
Fox. In that same race three-time
Olympian Dana Torres set a new
U.S. record with a time of 24.73.

"It was good to race some of the
people I'll be racing against at the tri-

als," Price said. "I have to get used to
it."

Bruin sophomore Nicole Beck

placed 10th in the 100m backstroke
and 12th in the 100m butterfly with
times of 1:05.81 and 1:03.06, respec-
tively. Like Price, Beck set a new per-
sonal record in the 100m fly.

"I came in not thinking t was
going to do very welj, so I wasn't ner-
vous. I didn't feel a lot of pressure,"
Beck said, explaining her success.
"I'm happy with how I did."

Beck is also preparing for
Olympic tryouts. "After that meet, I
gained a lot more confidence. For
now it's just perfecting your tech-
nique and staying quick," she said.

Junior Beth Goodwin, who will
also be at Olympic trials, placed 10th
in the 200m fly at 2:17.50.

"I came close to my fastest 200 fly
(long course) record, which was real-
ly inspiring because 1 thought I could
never go that fast again," Goodwin
said. ,' ■■.•.•■--:■,•.■•■..■•

Fifteen countries were represent-
ed at Santa Clara, including the
entire Japanese National Team, as
well as other strong college pro-
grams like Stanford.

Team Bruin will next compete at
the Janet Evans Invite on July 14-16
at use. Following that meet will be
Olympic tryouts. ^ - .

The Bruins say they'll be pre-
pared.

"It looks like I'm going to come
close to my best time, if not do better.
We put in a lot of time this summer,"
Goodwin said. "We're all swimming
really, really well."

Added Price: "I think, I'll be ready
by the time 1 go to Olympic trials."

California all-stars pull clutch win

RECRUrrS: Volatile game
leaves Texas high school
champs behind by a kick

By Pauline Vu

Dally Bruin Senior Staff

California kicker Chris Kluwe had
already missed an extra point and a
50-yard field goal in the first half of
the high school Shrine All-Star foot-
ball game between California and
Texas on June 24 at Cerritos College.

But in the waning moments of the
game, with 3.6 seconds left on the
clock and his team down 27-26,
Kluwe put his mistakes behind him
and made the 53-yard field goal to lift
California to a 29-27 victory. — .

"That's what the kicker lives for,"
the Los Alamitos and UCLA-bound
kicker told the Los Angeles Times.

When he went on the field for the
final play of the game, Kluwe pushed
his earlier misses out of his mind.

Shrine Aii-Star Classic

Calif ornfa 29

Texas 27

"If I had allowed myself to think
about that, there was no way I could
make it," he added. "When I don't
think, I kick a tot better." "

If Kluwe had missed, Texas would
have had its first Shrine Game victory

over California ever, since the
California-Texas format was adopted
in 1995. Instead, the locals made it six
ina row over Texas. r-rr^:

It was the second straight scare
California had of losing to Texas. Last
year the Golden State boys also man-
aged a last-second victory when Los
Alamitos wide receiver Keenan
Howry (now at Oregon) caught a
Hail Mary pass to give California a
28-25 victory.

Kluwe was not the only incoming
Bruin who shined in the Shrine. Wide
receiver Tab Perry of Milpitas ended
the game with two touchdowns and
five catches for 166 yards.

With 5:39 left in the second quar-
ter. Perry scored first for the

NBA

DRAFT: Moiso goeshigh,
Rush doesn't go; Clippers
revamp, Lakers pick low

ByAJCadman

Daily Bruin Senior Staff

mind was on the N BA. The y were includi ng the likes of E SPN.com

Daily Bruin File Ptwto

Jerome Moiso, shown here challenging a Washington defender
in a ganne last year, was the 1 1th overall pick in the NBA draft.

Judging by the college program
Jerome M6iso has played for and the
professional program he will play for,
one would have to acknowledge his
passion for teams with legacies.

After two seasons in Weslwood
with the most storied basketball
school in NCAA history, the former
Bruin will soon pack his bags for
Boston to play for another storied
program. On June 28 in Minneapolis,
the Celtics selected Moiso with the
11th pick overall in the 2000 NBA
Draft. The West Indies native will pro-
vide a plug at any of Boston's ffont-
court positions.

"Depending on what my role is
going to be on the team, I know that
when I get on the court, I will pro-
duce," Moiso said. "I'm pretty sure I
have the talent and the skills, and I
know where I'm going now."

Adjustment/rom the college game
to the professional level, combined
with the move to the East Coast, does
not shake the Bruin sophomore's con-
fidence. ,. : -

"I got the experience I needed,"
Moiso said. "The coaches pushed me
all the way through. They knew my

behind me and I had their support, so
that was good."

Another UCLA sophomore with
NBA hoop dreams, JaRon Rush, did
not hear his name called from the
podium. Rush is now a free agent who
-has permission to sign with any NBA
ballclub. Through his agent Raymond
Brothers, Rush has announced his
intention to participate in the Boston
Celtics summer league team starting
July 17. This does not constitute a
guaranteed contract nor an invitation
to training camp, but Rush will have a
forum to showcase his open court
game, speed and leaping ability.
-^ Should the Kansas City native fail
to find any JslBA suitors, he still has
several options. Rush may choose to
test the waters of the Continental
Basketball Association, which could
soon be sold to the NBA players
union by former Detroit Piston point
guard Isiah Thomas. Or he could join
the newly formed American
Basketball Association, which will use
a red, white and blue ball like the orig-
inal ABA, which existed from 1967 to
1976. He could also pursue a guaran-
teed contract overseas.

On the Lcfs Angeles scene, the
once-botlom-feeding Clippers took
one night to revamp their roster and
bring new life to a team that had been
the laughingstock of professional
sports. With the third pick overall,
general manager Elgin Baylor select-
ed East St. Louis prepster Darius
Miles. Many basketball experts.

senior writer Andy Katz and former
Georgetown coach and current TNT
television analyst John Thompson,
compare Miles' game to that of
Minnesota Timberwolves forward
Kevin Garnett, who also made the
leap from high school to the pros.

"Kevin Garnett is my idol," Miles
said. "He and Chris Webber are my
two favorite players. I look at KG a lit-
tle more because he was in the same
situation as me, and he went through
the same things. He's a great man and
a great player. Hopefully, I can be a lot
like him."

The Clippers then acquired the
draft rights to Missouri point guard
Keyon Dooling at the 10th spot. They -
also picked up' Corey Maggette,
Derek Strong and cash for a future
first-round pick.

The team once known as "the other^
L.A. team" then took DePaul swing-
man Quentin Richardson at No. 18.
The Clippers finished their draft by
taking European guard Marko Jaric
at No. 30 - the first selection in the
second and final round.

"I feel good," Miles said. "I think
the Clippers are a good, young team. I
feel we can develop as the years go on,
and hopefully we'll be a playoff con-
tending team."

At a news conference at the Staples
Center last Thursday, Richardson
echoed Miles' optimism.

"I'm so happy to be with these

Investigation of Rush's ineligibility ends in sanction

Daily Bruin Staff

The saga i:s over.

More Ihan seven months after the NCAA
began its investigation, the doors have closed on

athlete reinstatement case.

In the last step of the case, the NCAA ruled
that because UCLA-4jsed Rush, an ineligible

player, during the 1999
NCAA Tournament, the
school must return 45 per-
cent (S45,32l) of its earn-
ings from its participation
.in the Tournament, in
which the Bruins sulTered
a first round loss to Detroit
Mercy. In addition,
UCLA's performance in
the 1999 Tournament is ^^^~~~~~^~"
deleted.

"We were aware that this was the last step of
the JaRon Rush case and that we would have to
return a portion of our share from the 1999
NCAA Tournament," said UCLA Athletic

"We now have closure

on the matter and

can nnove on."

Peter Dalis

UCLA Athletic Director

Director Peter Dalis in a
statement. "The university
had no knowledge of
JaRon's actions which
caused him to be ineligible,
and the cabinet agreed,
requiring us to return just
45 percent of the money
we received by participat-
ing in the 1999

Tournament.

"We now have closure

on the matter and can move on," he added.
Because of the Family Educational Rights

and Privacy Act, which protects the privacy of

student-athletes, NCAA spokesman Jane

Jankowski was prohibited from discussing
Rush's case, but she did state that she sees no
more sanctions for UCLA in the future.

"We don't expect further penalties for the
university," she said.

The NCAA began investigating Rush on
Dec. 10, 1999 when UCLA suspended him for
possible NCAA violations.

Rush has since decided to forgo his final two
years of eligibility and enter the 2000 N BA draft.

Then on Feb. 1, Rush was suspended for 44
games by the NCAA after its discovery that the
forward took $6,125 from his summer league
coach during high school. After a UCLA

TRACK: Soong, Ames win
Hrst place; Bruin rosier

By Christina Teller

Dally Bruin Senior Staff

The youth of the UCLA track and
Held team showed their'strcngth last
weekend at the U.S. Junidr Track
and Field Championships in Denton,
Texas from June 2.V24.

Two of UCLA's young guns,
freshmen Dan Ames and Cari
Soong, powered through the champi-
onship weekend, clinching two titles.
Ames fought his way to the di.scus
title and was second place in the shot
put.

Soong was head and shoulders

she claimed the hammer throw with
her loss of 194-10, a new national
junior meet record.

"She was in position to do very
well, and she did," throwing coach
and men's head coach Art Vencgas
said "She did it the Bruin way. in fol-
lowing through with her potential."

Soong had the competition nailed
from the beginning. "^~^^

"It wasn't even close. She could
have won it on about every throw."
Vencgas added.

Soong won the hammer throw by
14 feet. The second place matJ< was
182-06 by Katherinc Johnston, of the
Warwick Veteran Memorial team.

"I'd been training with a lot of
those girls last summer, and I knew
that they wouldn't be able to pull a

coaches that I wanted to come back
and win. It's been a goal of mine,"
she said.

With her ability blossoming over
the past year, Soong fulfilled that
goal.

"She cornperedjust great as a true
freshman." women's head coach
Jcanette Bolden said. "She's a big-
time meet performer. When it comes
time to perform at the higher-level
meets, Pac-lOs and nationals, she
comes through."

Ames represented the Bruin men
very well as he managed not only to
win the discus with his throw of 189-
8, but also lo' clinch second in the
shot put battle.

Ames ended- with a mark of 58-8

Protest draws thousands to Westwood

IRAN: Event commemorates
student movement; many
call for democratic reforms

By Timothy Kudo

Dally Bruin Senior Staff

Thousands of people, some of them
refugees of a country embroiled in the tur-
moil of a 21 -year revolution, gathered
peacefully in front of the Federal Building
July 8, in support of a
student movement
calling for democrat-
ic reforms in Iran.

Under a sky daz-
zled with the red,
white, blue and green
of American and
Iranian fiags, the
group came together
on the one-year
anniversary of a police raid on a college
dormitory that left one student dead in
Tehran.

Across the globe, Iranian students out-
side Tehran University joined their

the somber. day. But unlike the peaceful
protest here, demonstrations abroad
turned bloody as pro-democracy protest-
ers fought with right-wing extremists.
- -^?We are here to tell the people, the
American people, that our students are in
jail in Iran," said Steve Nejat, one of the
demonstrators.

Nejat left Iran during the Islamic revo-
lution of 1979 when right-wing religious
extremists, backed by many Iranians, over-
threw the monarchy.

At the time, Nejat was working at a fac-
tory, but he said when the government
changed, so did the way he was treated.

"They asked me to come to the office
and they said, 'You are Jewish. You did
this. You did that,' he said. "And they laid
me off" -

Afterward, he sold everything he
owned in order to buy his way out of the
country. He then traveled over the moun-
tains to Pakistan.

"They thought it would change and get
better," Nejat recollected about' the atti-
tude people had toward the revolution.
"It's changed - but it's getting worse."

UCLA hospital

RATING: Doctors' survey
lifts Med Center's position
in some specialty areas

By Bartiara Ortutay

Daily Bruin Senior Staff

Sick people from across the
country - and even the globe - visit
the renowned UCLA Medical
Center seeking treatment for life-
threatening diseases when their local
hospitals are simply not enough.

For the 1 Ith consecutive year, the
UCLA Medical Center ranked as the
best hospital in the Western United
States in a U.S. News & World
Report survey of 2,550 physicians
across the country.

"Chances are you'll never need
these rankings - but if you do, they
could save your life," reads the U.S.
News Web site as it explains reason
behind the survey.

The^ Medical Center was rated as
the fifth best hospital in the nation,
moving up one notch from last year.

"We have extraordinary physi-
cians and nurses who have developed
some of the best programs in the
country." said Dr. Gerald Levey,
provost of the Medical Sciences and
dean of the School of Medicine.

ENGLISH: Department
says workload unequal
to designated four-units

By Timothy Kudo

Daily Bruin Senior Staff

Citing a recent survey of English
classes showing a higher workload
than the 12 hours per week pre-
scribed in a four-unit class, the
English department has changed
many of its classes to five units.

The classes to be changed starting
Fall 2000 are English 80. 85, 90,
MI0IA-MI07C and 133-199. They
will join the lower division English 10
series which was changed to five
units several years ago.

"We ask our students to read
6,000 pages of fiction in six weeks,"
said Thomas Wortham, chair of the
English department. "I'm not sure
someone would be reading that
much material iii another depart-
ment."

The survey of English classes
found that students spent anywhere
from 12.8 hours per week, including
class-time, to 19.3 hours per week on
each class with an average time of
about 16.9 hours a week.

Additionally, many students who
were asked to compare their classes
with others said English classes
required more work. ^

showing they were spending 15 or so

Hiring practices questioned by union organizers

CASUALS: Employee status root of
conflict; senate bill addresses issue

By David Drucker

Daily Bruin Contributor

UCLA's employment of long-term casual work-
ers has come under fire this year by the American
Federation of State, County and Municipal
Employees union.

AFSCME alleges that UCLA intentionally fires
and rehires the same employees approximately
every 1 1 months. According to union olTicials.

"What happens is before a year is up. UCLA
will fire casual workers, then r^ire them three or
four days or a week later."
said AFSCME organizer
Grant Lindsay.

"The reason they're
doing this is that the collec-
tive bargaining agreement
we have with them says that
an>one working more than
12 months is a career-posi-
tion employee that is enti-
tled to full benefits and the
salary that goes along with that." Lindsay contin-

Resources Ruie Arnett denied the allegation, and
said UCLA employed casual workers long before
the current collective bargaining agreement with
AFSCME. signed in 1995, was in place.

Arnett said UCLA has not used casual workers
on a long-term basis to sidestep the university's
contract with AFSCME.

" Wc discourage departments from doing that,'^
she said.

Arnett explairied that personnel decisions are
more complex than the union admits.

Protesters demonstrate New ambulance
free speech on July 4 for UCLA campus

Protesters with opposing views on immigra-
tion clashed July 4 outside the Westwood
Federal Building, but no injuries or arrests were
reported, authorities said.

The Voices of Citizens Together, an organiza-
tion that opposes lenient immigration laws,
began its protest peacefully at 10 a.m., but the
demonstration grew more violent when another
group gathered on the other side of the street,
said Lt. Ken Leffl^r. '

Some 200 people gathered near Wilshire
Boulevard, and officials had to put on their riot
gear at one point. '

Leffler said there was one "minor skirmish"
where oHlcers had to break apart members of
the opposing groups.

The Los Angeles County Sheriffs
Department, the Los Angeles Police
Department, the federal police and the
California Highway Patrol were at the scene to
monitor the event.

The UCLA Emergency Medical Services
received a new ambulance July 7 to replace
another ambulance that is a decade old.

The new ambulance, purchased by the
'UCLA Medical Center Auxiliary volunteer
organization which funds medical equipment
and other programs, is equipped with a state-of-
the-art cardiac defibrillator. ,.

The EMS, which runs year-round, is part of
the campus police department that serves tlie
campus and Westwood area, it is staffed by
undergraduate and graduate students that have
undergone a state-certified training program.

Professor honored as

annual competition.
The center organizes all faculty research, stu-
dent activities, and curricula related to entrepre-
neurship and new business development at
Anderson.

He has created several nonprofit outreach
programs through the center, particularly in the
areas of child care arid youlh education. He also
developed a curriculum model that applies the
same concepts of opportunity recognition and
strategic development to nonprofits, schools,

UCLA America Reads and Jumpst^rt Los Angeles work^

♦'*

to bring the advantage of literaq^ to disadvantaged children

By Dharshani Dharmawardena

Daily Bruin Senior Staff <

Seeing that 70 percent of children fell
below proficient levels of reading on the
National Assessment of Educational
Progress, President Clinton proposed the
America Reads Challenge in 1994.

The program aims for children to read
adequately by the third grade.

"For any kind of achievement, people
need to learn how to read before they go
through any learning experience," said
Celia Cudiamat, program director of
UCLA BruinCorps.

An umbrella organization for commu-
nity service on campus, BruinCorps over-
sees- both UCLA America Reads,
UCLA's response to President Clinton's
challenge, and Jumpstart Los Angeles,
part of a national literacy program focus-
ing on preschoolers.

Class of 2000 graduate and Jumpstart
program coordinator Joyce Liou worked
with BruinCorps for two years, tutoring
at Western Elementary School in South
Central Los Angeles.

Having heard about America Reads in
her Education 197 class, Liou decided to
apply for a tutoring position because it
seemed both challenging and fun.

"It was an ideal job," she said. "It pro-
vided a chance to test and build skills'and
best of all; I'd get to work with children."

BruinCorps pays student tutors
through funds from AmeriCorps, a group
of national programs addressing various
community-based issues, and through
Federal Work Study.

Student tutors also receive educational
awards depending on the amount^ of
hours they serve.

America Reads at UCLA, which
began in 1997, initially focused on tutor-
ing children in kindergarten through
third grade.

"Research shows that if you can't
read by the third grade, you're already
behind," Cudiamat said.

Sixty students from the UCLA
America Reads program served at 12
elementary schools and three communi-
ty-based organizations in Los Angeles
during its first year.

Today, America Reads helps older chil-
dren as well. It expanded to include addi-
tional schools, organizations and stu-
dents during the 1998-1999 school
year.

Unlike America Reads,
Jumpstart Los Angeles focuses
on younger children. V

It became part of
BruinCorps in 1998 because
program organizers wanted
to extend the America Reads
Challenge to preschoolers.

It attempts to build language
development and social skills
needed for a future first-
grader to learn how to
read, Cudiamat said.

"Since they arc so
young, the program is
totally different from K
to 3," Cudiamat said.
"In preschool, it is deal-
ing with the really emer-
gent kinds of skills."

Reads and

Fewer women apply, enroll at The Anderson School

MBA: Program remains
popular; some admitted
possess doctoral degrees

By Linh Tat

Dally Bruin Senior Staff

The Anderson School at UCLA is
attracting more diverse applicants,
but it still seems less appealing to
women.

Students entering the Masters in
Business Administration program
this fall were up against the second-
highest applicant pool in the school's
history.

For (he 330 available spots, 4,S63
people applied to the program, down
from last year's 4,926 applicants. But
with a 15.1 percent acceptance rate.
The Anderson School is still consid-
ered one of the most selective busi-
progi'ikms in (he nailon, Khool

"There are several reasons we
think applications have increased
over time," said Bill Broesamie, asso-
ciate dean of the M.B.A. program.
"This school is seen as well-connect-
ed to the high-tech and biotechnolog-
ical field in addition to the media,
entertainment, and communication."
- He said many applicants are
attracted to the school because of its
location in Southern California,
which is blooming with such
businesses.

Though the number of applicants
are rising, they are stillpredominant-
ly men. Only 29 percent of the origi-
nal applicants and 30 percent of
admitted students this year were
women, said Linda Baldwin, director
of admissions to the M.B.A. pro-
gram.

Broesamie said that in 1985. the
percentage of women at The
Anderson School peaked at 38 per-
c e nt. By 1 99 5, wom en c o m p ris ed 30

ofTicials said.

percent of the program.

"Other professional fields like
medicine and law have about an
equal proportion of women and men.
That is hot true in business school.
We don't know why," Broesamie
said.

"Certainly our women graduates
do extremely well, so it's not a matter
of women finding less opportunities
when they graduate," he said.

Some women may be deterred
from enrolling because most students
enroll in business programs in their
late '20s, which coincides with the
time many women consider starting a
family, said Lynn Lipinski. a spokes-
woman for The Anderson School.

The average grade point average
of admitted students the past two
years was 3.6. Also, applicants this
year averaged 702 out of a possible
score of 800 on the Graduate
Management Admission Test - up 12
points from last year, placing those

dents hold a medical or law degree,
and seven have doctorate degrees.

"People are going to be very cre-
dentialed in the next, few decades,
marrying the business degree with
other degrees," Baldwin said.

Additionally, 24 percent of last
year's entering students held an
undergraduate degree in business.
Economics and engineering students
followed suit, with both disciplines
making up another 21 percent each
of the overall admittance pool.

"You will see increasingly the per-
centage of people coming from other
areas rather than simply business,"
Baldwin said. "You'll find people
with technical backgrounds who
want to be in the policy- and decision-
making world. Engineers find this is
their vehicle to participate in the new
economy or to be owners and entre-
preneurs."

While some applicants think fewer

But, she added, the school receives
more applications from UC Berkeley
and Stanford students.

"You see a lot of reversed north-
south trend," Baldwin said. "People"
who went to schools in Northern
California apply to schools in
Southern California. They already
know what it's like in the north.
They're interested in seeing a differ-

Thf average age of entering stu-

Assemblywomen investigate charges of unfair labor

TOUR: Romero, Havice
visit UCLA to look into
efnployment practices

By Todd Belie

Daily Bruin Contributor

California Assemblywomen

Gloria Romero and Sally Havice
came to campus July 7 to examine the

working conditions of casual employ-
ees at UCLA at the request of orga-
nizers from two unions representing
university employees.

In addition to visiting Covel
Commons and the Neuropsychiatric
Institute, the state representatives
received an overview of problems

allegedly facing casual employees.

It is alleged that casual employees
work, often full-time, for the universi-
ty but are fired after a period so the
university can avoid hiring mandates
that would allow the employees to
beconte full-time and receive benefits.

Job security, lack of full medical
coverage and retirement funding
were outlined as major issues of con-
cern by Jose Hernandez, an organiz-
er with the American Federation of
State, County and Municipal
Employees.

"We have a big problem," said
Hernandez, "(Administrators) are
abusing the system, undermining ser-
vice, and are keeping people scared
by threatening to fire them if they
speak out."

Anthony Campagnoni, an associ-
ate director at NPI, briefly met with
the group, which was touring campus
under the auspices of looking at new
research. He disputed claims that
casual workers were being treated
unfairly.

"Policy is done on a case by case
basis, many casuals come here as a
transition job out of school, but come
to like the work and don't want to go"
Campagnoni saidr

tion to further discuss the issue of
casual workers because of time con-
straints. :..■:",.'■:..

University administrators could
not be reached for comment late
Friday afternoon.

The tour group, consisting of the
assemblywomen, disgruntled

employees, and labor officials, was
shuttled to Covel Commons where
they interviewed workers in the cafe-

" We don't mistreat casual employ-
ees," Campagnoni said. "They are
simply too valuable to us."

The informal and impromptu
meeting in the halls of the NPI gave
labor officials and Havice a chance to
voice their concerns. The group, how-
ever, declined Campagnoni's invita-

^tcmr — — ■

While discussing conditions with a
small group of workers, the assembly-
women were confronted by Michael
Foraker, director of the Housing
Administration's Business and
Financial Service, who informed the
assemblywomen that it was improper
to disturb employees while they were

working.

After a brief discussion with
Foraker, the assemblywomen moved
on to the Covel dining area, where
both spoke in Spanish about working
conditions with several off-duty
employees.

As they departed from Covel , their
conversation with the workcrsHel
one of the employees in tears.

"This is an issue of fairness,"
Havice said. "With no c1i»nce of

moving up and no benefits, these part
time employees are stuck here forev-
er. This shouldn't happen in a state
university supported by the public."

Romero also gave her reaction to
employee concerns.

CONFERENCE: Study says
dgh-risk sex._ dnigJiabks
are starting to resurface

By Oanld Q. HaiMy

The Associated Press *;

DURBAN, South Africa -
Rou^ly 5 million Americans have
sex and drug habits that put them at a
high risk of catching AIDS, accord-
ing to new U.S. figures, and experts
fear an upsurge of the disease after a
decade of stability. -

While AIDS infections in the
United States have fallen dramatical-

ly since their peak in the 1980s, public
health officials worry that compla-
cency about the disease has caused
backsliding - especially among
young gay men - that could bring
AIDS roaring back 1

"I'm scared by the trends we are
starting to see," said Dr. Helene
Gayle, AIDS chief at the U.S.
Centers for disease Control and
Prevention.

Gayle presented the latest data
Saturday at a briefing hosted by the
American Medical Association on
the eve of the 13th International
Conference on AIDS.

Currently, about 40,000
Americans contract HIV each year.

Slow change comes from many events

Over the fast decade,

infection rates among

^y men have remained

stable at between 1

percent and 4 percent.

down from the 100,000 new infec-
tions annually during the mid-'80s.
The improvement is attributed large-
ly to safer sex habits and avoiding
dirty needles.

In an attempt to see how many

Americans still act -recklessly, the
CDC analyzed findings from several
large-scale surveys. Their conclusion:
Between 2 percent and 4 percent of
the adult population - 4 million to S
million people - still put themselves^
at high risk. This includes having six
or more sexual partners annually,
having sex with someone known to be
infected with HIV, engaging in prosti-
tution for drugs or money, having
male homosexual contact, using
crack cocaine or injecting Hni£«

Gayle said jhe study did not
attempt to learn whether this level of
risky behavior is increasing or
decreasing, although there seems to
be evidence on both sides. For

instance, condom use has increased
substantially since the 1980s,
although only about 40 percent of
unmarried people and 23 percent of
drug users report using them.

Ovei" the last decade, infection-
rates among gay men have remained
stable at between I percent and 4 per-
cent. However, said Gayle. "We have
seen troubling signs/over the past
year that we fear could signal a resur-
gence of the epidemic among gay

men.

President-elect Vkent« Fox speaks during an interview on July 3.

HISTORY: Party's legacy
finally unlocks door to
Vicente Fox's presidency

By John Rice

The Assodated Press '■■■: -

MEXICO CITY - Hundreds of
police and soldiers guarded Mexico's
Congress "3ne summer day 12 years
ago as the ruling-party majority pre-
pared to certify the scandal-marred
election of Carlos Salinas de Gortari.

A freshman congressman named
Vicente Fox - fraudulent ballots hung
on his ears to mock the large-eared
Salinas - rose to the podium and pre-
tended to speak as the president-
elect, expressing sorrow that he
would have to rule "against the will of
the people."

Watching the ceremony on televi-
sion, Salinas reportedly turned to
aides to ask: "And this one - who
does he think he is?"

As it turned out. Fox was the man
who would end the seven-decade
reign of Salinas' party - a victory that
had its roots in long struggles over
frauds such as Salinas' in 1988 and in
a slow, silent transformation of
Mexican society.

"The Mexican case is unique
because it has been very slow, very
gradual," said Sergio Aguayo, a polit-
ical scientist at the elite College of
Mexico.

San Fermin Fiesta. The event started July 7.

Overcrowding has made the runs extreme-
ly dangerous. Since record-keeping began in
1924, 13 runners have been killed and more
than 200 have been injured. The last fatality

WASHINGTON - Qinton administra-
tion officials said July 9 they expect the president
will decide whether to go ahead with the next
phase of a national missile defense system and
not leave it up to his successor.

Senators raised concerns about spending bil-
lions on the proposed system, which failed an
important test early Saturday, and some suggest-
ed the United States faced more potential
threats from terrorists on the ground than mis-
siles in the air.

Secretary of State Madeleine Albright said it
would be "irresponsible" for the administration
to put off the decision, as suggested by Sen.
Chuck Hagel, R-Neb. Such a delay, she said on
ABC's "This Week." would give countries such
as North Korea and Iran more time to develop
missiles that could threaten the United States.

"There are four criteria that the pres-
ident is going to be looking at: the threat,
the technology, the cost and what it does to over-
all American security," Albright said.

Protestants march
against British army

PORTADOWN, Northern Ireland -
Offering bitter words but no violence, an esti-
mated 3,000 Protestant hard-liners marched
July 9 to a British army barricade that pre-
vented them from parading through the mpin
Catholic district of this fiercely Protestant
town.

Compounding intercommunal tensions, a
car bomb planted by Irish Republican Army
dissidents detpnated in front of a police sta-
tion in Stewartstown, 10 miles north of
Portadown. Th e b l ast wo un d fd a p o li te -^

woman in the leg and demonstrated that
extremists on both ^des want to tear apart
Northern Ireland's 1998 peace accord.

In Portadown, leaders of the Orange
Order, Northern Ireland's major Protestant
fraternal group, promised they would even-
tually get their way and march down disput-
ed Garvaghy Road by wearing down British
authorities through mass civil disobedience.

Standing on a podium in front of the 20-
foot-high steel wall blocking their intended
path, Portadown's senior Orangeman,
Harold Gracey, denied responsibility for
encouraging the Protestant riots of recent
days - then in the same breath called for even
more intense demonstrations starting July
10.

The car bomb attack in Stewartstown
heightened many Protestants' belief that the
IRA itself remained committed to the aboli-
tion of Northern Ireland as a Protestant-
majority state linked with Britain.

"I can't say that (it is happening), but if it is.
then we're real concerned about it." he said.
"We plan on looking into it."

The issue flared up on campus last month
when AFSCME led 15 food-service and janitori-
al workers in a march on the offices of Housing
Administration Director Mike Foraker and
Covel Commons Principal Dining Manager
Brandon T. Williams to demand an end to long-
term casual employment and other* alfeged mis-
treatment.

"They think I'm a problem because I'm a
member of the union." said senior food service
worker Hiliria Pena, who added that she's been
turned down for a promotion to assistant cook
twice. f

"I've been working 12 years in the same posi-
tion, and they said that I don't have the experi*
ence," Pena said.

Williams declined to comment, citing depart-
ment protocol. But Foraker said AFSCME's
allegations are unfounded.

"I don't think they will hold up under any

But Osborne responded that this philosophy
is, in efTect, backward.

^ *'0h, so the taxpayers should pay more?*'
asked Osborne. "UCLA, as a public institution,
has to be especially judicious with its money if it
is going to survive and prosper. .,., -.; -^ ,, ■ . ;■ ,

AFSCME, however, has its own opinion of
what UCLA's priorities should be.

"Management is making decisions based on
just budget," said Lead Organizer JR
Hernandez. They're making decisions without

recent Housing Department protest, said
UCLA has a moral responsibility that super-
sedes budgetary concerns.

But Foraker said the union is overstating the
situation.

"I think they're taking the particular situation
of casual workers and painting it with a broad
brush," explained Foraker. "Have there been
abuses? Yes. Is it ongoing and routine?
Absolutely not."

Nonetheless, AFSCME officials insist that
the trend of recycling workers in casual positions
is a problem, and one that stretches beyond
UCLA to encompass the entire UC system. To
combat this, AFSCME has pushed the
California legislatui^ to pass SB 1857. which
would make such actions illegal.

•^It says that the UC can no longer keep a
casual work force in place for five, Idi, or 15
years without making them permanent employ-
ees," said AFSCME Political and Legislative
Director Willie L. Pelote. -..< *

Pelote expects the bill to pass when legislators
take it up in August.

"1 never move a bill without being eternally
optimistic that the governor will hear what we're
saying and sign it," Pelote said. • . ,- .

UNITS

From page 1

hours on English classes," Wortham
said. "Allowing for exaggeration, it still
seemed that 15 was close to the num-
ber that students were spending."

But the change doesn't mean the
English major is more difficult than
other ones, said Karen Rowe, an
English professor and chair of the
Faculty Executive Committee, which
along with the Undergraduate Council
of the Academic Senate approved the
change.

"The student taking clinical psy-
chology who spends time working

interactively, or doing observational
studies, may be spending hours that
are equivalent in difficulty to the four
hours that an English student spends
reading chapters in a novel," Rowe
said.

According to Judith Smith, vice
provost for the College of Letters and
Science, one unit equates to four hours
of time spept on a class. So, a four unit
class woula require 12 hours of study
and class time a week.

Since the classes required more
than 12 hours of work, students were
being "paid" less units than they
should have. Wortham said.

Smith also said a major is defined as
60 upper division units or. if classes are

four units, 15 classes. Currently the
English major is 12 classes but with the
increase it will now meet the unit
requirement set by the college.

Though the English department is
one of the first to make so many of its
classes five units, other departments
may consider such a change in order to
graduate their students faster.

"It's a response to the enrollment
plans that need to go in place to meet
the Tidal Wave of new students that
will come to the campus over the next
10 years." Rowe said about the influx
of around 60,000 students expected to
enter the UC in the next 10 years, nick-
named Tidal Wave 2.

Currently, the average UC student
graduates in just over four years,
according to officials.

The university's goal is to graduate
students in four years so there is a high-

er turnover and campus populations
will be somewhat smaller.

Since many students only take three
classes, or 12 units, the unit change will
force students to take about 15 units a
quarter, Rowe said. Over four years,
students will have taken the 180 units
required for a degree.

Though taking more than 18 units
requires petitioning the college, Rowe
said she didn't think the unit increase
would affect most students in that
respect, because many don't take more
than three classes.

She added it's rare for students to be
denied taking more than 18 units, but
her committee may re-examine the
issue at a later time.

Hospitals," published July
U.S. News & World Report.

While the rankings were wel-
comed by nurses and physicians at
the Medical Center. Levey said the
biggest benefit is for the patients
"who come here and and take great
comfort in the fact that the hospital
is ranked one of the best in the
world."

UCLA has receivetl the best hos-
pital in the West title each year in
4h€ «uf vey's 44 • — —

year history. To
rank the hospi-
tals, the maga-
zine surveyed

which made the
final cut.

The U.S.
News Honor
Roll. which
ranks the lop
hospitals in the

nation, rates

-them based on

scores in at least

six of 17 specialty areas

"America's Best Hospitals."

The specialties include areas such
as cancer, geriatrics, pediatrics, psy-
chiatry and kidney disease - a cate-
gory added this year.

To rate the programs, the maga-
zine asked 150 board-certified
physicians in each specialty - 2,550
in all - to pick the top five hospitals
in their area, ignoring cost and loca-
tion.

UCLA received 21 points in FT
specialties. In first place was Johns
Hopkins Hospital, receiving 31
points in 16 specialties.

There is a high concentration of
older people living in the west side

"When people are

Judy Gasson

Jonsson Cancer Center
director

of Los Angeles, according to
Medical Center spokesman David
Lagness. Many of them may benefit
from UCLA's geriatrics program,
which received the highest ranking
in the nation.

"We have been right on the top
for the past seven or eight years,"
said David Reuben, director of the
division of geriatrics. "We have
great faculty, good support. We love
caring for older persons."

The Jonsson Comprehensive
Cancer Center ranked eighth in the
"nation - jumping up five places
from last year.

_ Shr cited
excellen"2e "in
patient care,
outstanding
research pro-
grams in basic
science, clinical

research and

cancer preven-
tion as some of
the reasons for the high ranking.

"I think it will be helpful to us
when we're recruiting," Gasson
continued. "When people are diag-
nosed with cancer, they come here."
Other highly ranked programs at
the Medical Center include gynecol-
ogy, which was fourth in the nation,
and psychiatry, which ranked sixth.
The Center's digestive disorders
program, which includes treating
ulcers, was also ranked as the sixth
best in the nation.

lence, and appreciate being recog-
nized for it," said Dr. Michael

serve disadvantaged communities,
which lack educational services for
elementary school-aged children,
Cudiamat said.

Such unfavorable circumstances
may eventually hinder their chances
of attending a good college, she
added.

"They don't have those kinds of
advantages to prepare them to be
competitive," she said. "We want to
give them a foundation of skills to
build on." ^

Tutors working with students one-
on-one can help these students move

From her experience. Liou said
many of these children face dilTicul-
ties at home in addition to the disad-
vantages they find at school. *„ . ,^

"Many of the parents don't know
how they can help their child succeed ■
in school because the areas we work
at consist of a large population of
immigrant families, where the parents
don't necessarily speak English and
cannot read or write it," she said.

Although many parents may want
to participate in their children's edu-

tions between 1997 and 1999. Also,
gonorrhea and other sexually spread
diseases have risen recently in several
cities among HIV-infected gay men.

Experts worry that complacency
about getting AIDS, fueled in part by
the availability of effective HIV treat-
ments, may be behind a return to
risky sexual behavior.

One of the most impressive victo-
ries over HIV in industrialized coun-

cations more, circumstances out of
their reach prevent such interaction,
Liou said.

"There are parents who never got
past a certain level of education," she
said. "There are parents who work all
the time and when they get home,
they look at their children and realize
that their kids are strangers to them
and that Ihey don't know how to
engage their children in conversation.

"And of course, there are parents
who are completely with the program
and make sure the child does their
homework and really work with the
children." she continued.

Even^though some families e x pert -'
ence hardships. Liou said she found
most parents cared deeply about their
children's futures. . • ,

"It's rare to find a parent who isn't
appreciative of all your work." she
said.

- JThrojUi^h tutoring, BruinCorps
members try to help youngsters over-
come many of the disadvantages they
face, Liou said. Working with them,
however, requires imagination.

"All my literacy and math activities
had to be fun, because ideally, that's
the best way to learn and spark inter-
est in learning for the sake of knowl-
edge, not for the sake of the grade,"

tries has been the use of AZT and
other drugs to prevent the spread of
the virus from infected mothers to
their babies during birth. In the
United States, only a few hundred
babies now get the infection this way
each year.

Many hope the same approach
will slow the spread of HI V to babies
where this tragedy is common, espe-
cially in sub-Saharan Africa.

On Friday, Boehringer Ingelheim
said it would offer its AIDS drug
nevirapine free to developing coun-
tries to help stop mother-to-child

she said.

For example, Liou said she used
the game Memory to help students
with their spelling. Whenever a child
found a matching pair, they needed to
spell the name correctly in order to
win.

Despite her attempts to create a
fun environment, Liou said some of
the students were uncooperative,
forcing her to change her lesson plan
and make things more relaxing for
them.

"If a group or individual was hav^
ing a bad day or was tired, we took it
easier," she said. "But we always
involved readtng in our relaxation
days, which is one of the goals of our
program - to promote literacy as
.something fu n." _; _

The children Liou tutored are not
the only ones who learned. She said
she gained a different perspective on
life working with her students.

"You may be stressed about your
own grades and tests, but the
moment you walk into the class and
you get a hug from your tutee, you
realize your troubles are so minute in
the grand scheme of things," Liou
said.

"You realize how privileged you
are to be where you're at," she added.

not have a big impact, because
infected women can still spread the
virus to their babies through breast
feeding.

A study of 1,797 pregnancies
found that a combination of the
drugs AZT and 3TC cut the risk of
transmission to newborns by more
than half. However, as babies caught
the virus through breast milk, the
difference was nearly wiped q^ut
within 18 months.

DEMONSTRATION

From page 1

rent state of oil-rich Iran, in which
food and water are lacking in parts of
the country.

"No economy, no jobs, nothing,"
al-Andd said. "Everything is going
down."

Al-Andd said he left before the rev-
olution but went back for a short time
only to rea lize that there >wa$ no
future there. -

Some demonstrators brought lawn
chairs or sat in wheelchairs with their^
"chMren and^ grandchildrenrwho
smiled while they carried flags and
candles alongside the marchers.
«.Many protesters exchanged hugs and
greetings with friends and relatives. ;

After speeches by Iranian scholars
and community members, the
demonstrators began marching to
UCLA, shutting down Westwood's
major streets. -^

The sea of thousands snaked from
the federal building to (our blocks
away at the intersection of Le Conte
Avenue and Westwood Boulevard.

As they walked, many protesters
thanked the Los Angeles Police
Department officers who directed the
crowd using megaphones.

One man, Charles
Sedghl,said maybe
the lackluster media
^ presence (at the

protest) was because

America didn't want

to get involved.

^:. Cries for help from the crowd's
chant of "United Nations, pay more
attention." and banners saying, "Stop
executing students in Iran," were
shadowed by more sinister slogans
like "Death lathe Islamic Republic."
In the midst of the march, a toddler
walking uneasily waved a miniature
Iranian flag over his head while his
mother scrambled to keep up.

As the crowd gathered in the mid-
dle of their march, they began singing
the Iranian national anthem before
turning and heading back to the
Federal Building.

Some protesters gave money to a
homeless man who was w^ttching the
event.

The event didn't make the evening
news on many stations, though an
anti-immigration protest with far
fewer people at the Federal Building
on July 4 drew several local new*-,
vans.

One man, Charles Sedghi, said
maybe the lackluster media 4}res
was because America didn't want to
get involved.

"It would be another Iraq,** he
said. ' ' ^■- ■ • ^ ^ - ' — — ^

As the protest wound down, the
demonstrators placed the candles
they had been carrying on the con-
crete posts that dot the outskirts of
the federal building forming.

By the time the demonstration was
over, the sky had faded into darkness
but the stars dotting the night were
surpassed by the thousands of burn-
ing flames lit below.

least 1994. And until this year, all
presidential elections were tilted
heavily in favor of the ruling
Institutional Revolutionary Party,
orPRI.

A few of the milestones on the
path to an opposition victory:

• THE NEW PARTY: In 1939, a
small group launched the center-
right National Action Party, or
PAN. It would elect a few congress-

\ and nwyors over the years, but
it did not even try to field a presi- .
dential candidate until 1952.

• CRACKS IN THE SYSTEM:
The PRI's all-embracing network of
farm, labor and urban organiza-
tions routinely crushed rivals. But a
strike by dissident railway workers
was brutally suppressed by the gov-
ernment in 1958 - one of several
events that began to weaken PRI
labor unions.

• THE MASSACRE: The army's
massacre of student demonstrators
in Mexico City in 1968 turned a gen-

eration of intellectuals - and later
their students - against the ruling
party. The hostility it created also
made later generations of soldiers
wary of being used for political ends
as they had been in the past.

• THE ECONOMY: President
Jose Lopez Portillo used booming
oil revenues and soaring debt to
patch up problems in the state-dom-
inated economy. When oil prices
fell, the resulting crisis alienated mil-
lions of middle-class voters . — —

• FREE TRADE: President
Miguel de la Madrid led Mexico

' toward private enterprise and free
trade, entering the international
General Agreement on Tariffs and
Trade in 1986. He began selling off
the state companies the PR] had
used for decades as sources of jobs
for supporters.

• REVOLT AT THE POLLS: In
1986. the PRI used fraud to keep
National Action's Francisco Barrio
from winning the governor's race in
Chihuahua state along the U.S. bor-
der. Tens of thousands demonstrat-
ed, uniting for the first time intellec-
tuals of the right and of the left.

"I'm concerned about the basic

"When people are working five or 10
years and only getting the benefits of

clear problem."

While leading part of the tour Cliff
Fried, executive vice president of

need for policy meetings to resolve
problems among casual employees.

"The hardest part is ge tting^the

the widest unrest since the 1979
Islamic revolution.

The Office for Fostering
Unity, the largest pro-reform stu-
dent group, was quick to dis-
avow the rioters.

"T he demonstrators were not
students," the group said in a
statement. "(Students) had noth-

The trouble followed months
of tension between pro-cfcmocra-
cy supporters of President
Mohammad Khatami and rival
hard-liners who have closed
Sown pro-reform newspapers
and arrested presidential allies in
a bid to roll back the immensely
popular reforms. Students are

among Khatami's strongest sup-
porters.

Saturday began with nonvio-
lent gestures commemorating
last year's raid. Representatives
of the Office for Fostering Unity
visited the homes of leading
jailed reformers, writers and
political activists and gave their
families flowers as a gesture of
solidarity, said group member
Nima Fateh

"Our response to violence is
offering flowers. We seek to pro-
mote the culture of tolerance and
respect for opposing views in our
society," he said.

But police arrested a number
of students at a demonstration

Also, vigilantes attacked an earlier
demonstration by students chanting slo-
gans in support of reform and political
freedoms.

The situation degenerated later in the
day. Hundreds of people, raany wroed

with rocks and chanting "death to dicta
tors." fought a vicious battle against
dozens of hard-line vigilantes armed with
rocks and chains. The vigilantes were
chanting sloga ns support i rig hard-line

supreme leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei.

It was unclear how many people were
injured in fighting between the two
groups, but at least a dozen people were
seen being driven away in private cars,
most with head injuries.

Bystanders fled the scene after police
moved in and fired tear gas. but some
5,000 people soon gathered to watch the
brawl from balconies, pedestrian bridges
and sidewalks. Police fired into the crowd
when rioters turned on them:

The main reason for the move, according to offi-
cers at the ceremony, was to bring the center closer
to the heart of Westwood. At 900 square feet and
with more windows, the new location is larger and
brighter than the previous one. Chapman said the

SHAVING: Skewed ideals,

—Western culture demand

unnatural female beauty

Ah, summer is here again - the
time when women start bar-
ing their midriffs, legs and
arms, and donning bikinis, tank tops
and shorts. And, for me, it's also the
time when peo-
ple start staring
at my body,
whispering
about me
behind my back,
and asking me if
I'm European.

While it
could be for a
variety of rea-
sons, I usually
attribute these
reactions to the
fact that I don't
shave my legs or underarms. !
stopped doing so about four years
ago, when I came to the realization
that this custom is completely arbi-
trary, sexist and without any logical
basis. While it's not a very realistic
hope, I wish that more women would
recognize this and reject the idea of
shaving their bodies. More impor-
tantly, though, I wish society would
not make it so difficult for them to
stop doing so in the first place.

Most Americans who can't imag-
ine a world in which women do not
shave might be surprised to learn that
the majority of women in the rest of
the world do not do so. Word has it
that the time-honored American tra-
dition of women shaving began very
recently, in the 20th century. It has
been traced back to the 1910s and
'20s, when, for the first time, armpits

and legs were visible with the advent
of the sleeveless dress and high hems.
Apparently, some genius over at—
Gillette figured that if women were

presented with yet another way in

which they could alter their body in
conformity to current fashions, they
would flock to it. And, it seems, they
were right. Currently, shaving is a
multi-billion dollar industry that is ~
overwhelmingly supported and per-
petuated by our society.

There are many ways in which this
social and cultural reinforcement of
female shaving is carried out. Try to
think of the last female actress, singer
or television personality you saw with
hairy legs or underarms. I can count
such women on one hand. One of
them is Julia Roberts, who showed
up to the premiere of "Notting Hill"
in a sleeveless dress, sporting
unshaven underarms. This event was
covered extensively in the media,
with pundits and fashion critics dis-
cussing the crowd's reaction and
debating why Robert's hadn't shaved.
Media hysteria of this type - in fact,
any type of media coverage at all -
sends the message to women that it is
scandalous, astonishing, bizarre for
us not to shave.

In fact, when attempting to do
research on unshaven women for this
column, the only Web sites I could
find were porno sites that classify
hairy women a freaky fetish, along-
side other supposed curiosities like
"shemales" and naked pregnant
women. ;• ^ ; ■<

Usually, the basis upon which most
people argue that unshaven women
deserve this freak status is that men
and women are difTerent and should
therefore dress, act and appear differ-
ently. Obviously, men and women are
biologically different, but hairiness is
not one of those differences. All
women, having passed the age of
puberty, naturally have hair in all the
same places as men. (The one and
only difference is that, usually, men
have thicker and darker hair in those

Column misplaces blame for 'War

LEGALIZATION: Criminalization
of lower classes brought on by
prohibition, tough regulations

By Peter Gitroux

After reading the article, "Legalization will
not stop problems addiction cause" by Andy
Jones (Viewpoint, June 8, 2000), I just had to
respond.

First of all, Jones starts out correctly when he
says that the change in the Drug War has been
influenced by President Clinton, who has created
so many new prisoners for the prison system that
the United States now has more prisoners per
capita than any other country The worid is now
in a state of war against the people who use
"Drugs".

Since the temperance movement of the I9th
century there have been people fighting to limit
which drugs people consume, how they are con-
sumed, or for what reasons they are consumed.
What it comes down to, though, is that people
are just afraid of things that are different from
themselves or their "norms." It is more a ques-
tion of intolerance for others than anything else.

G itf ouit it 9 w tide nt o f Quebec Ca n ada .

Jones goes on to simply say "Don't use drugs.
Yes, it's as simple as that! The Man won't have
any cause to lock you up." Sure, at the same time
don't drink coffee, eat sugar, chocolate, Viagra
and all other drugs that provide relief in some
way Even aspirin is a drug. Even food and water
would meet the requirements of drugs, and eat-
ing and drinking as addictions. Think about it.

The column continues,

"Ifa community feels it is

being targeted by drug laws,
the one sure way to avoid
being mistreated by our
'unjust' criminal system is
to obey the law." Maybe
Jones once again looks too
simplistically at what the
legalizers are doing. They
are trying to repair the
social fabric that has been
torn by this

It is prohibition that is

killing communities

and separating people,

creating paranoia

and snitches.

jWar:

They are trying to stop the
prison industry from housing our family mem-
bers for using 4 plant. They are trying to divert
money from prisons to education and hospitals.
When Jones goes on to say that "Tough-on-
crime laws would no longer be a problem if • ,
minority communities chose to avoid drugs and
the violence that comes with them," he implies
inugh-nn-cf ime laws would no longer be a prob-

lem if these communities just gave up their rights.
The violence associated with this crime comes
with the loss of the right of equal justice. "But
that's a difficult idea for activists, because it
requires thinking of people as independent
befrtgs, capable of avoiding what a higher power
has deemed illegal," Jones writes. Unfortunately,
his thinking of an independent being is different
than mine if he thinks that
^,«.,_^._ government is our higher
power.

"There is an especially
damaging counterpoint to
this simplification: many
people who are in prison
for drug offenses are in fact
innocent. The police cor-
ruption which leads to such
undeserved imprisonment
__ is the real 'war on our peo-

ple,'" Jones says. However,
it is not that we are inno-
cent ofdrug charges, but the fact that we haven't
committed any crime. Many of them are there
for no more than possession or being an activist.

Though the violence related to drugs is cer-
tainly sad, it would be better if legal disputes
could be handled in a court rather than the street.
Prohibition, not legalization, is the cause for the
corruption. Ihc market wi ll a l ways be tlicie,

there will always be a buyer and a seller, just like
any other business in the worid.

It is prohibition that is killing communities
and separating people, creating paranoia and
snitches. That must surely be the way to create a
trusting, whole community. There are people
serving longer sentences in prisons for drug
crimes than other serve for murder, robbery,
rape or many other crimes. Soon we will have to
pay the consequences of letting our government
take away our rights to be free, independent
^beings that are trying to group into a society.

Tobacco kills 400,000 people each and every
year, but deaths from Cannabis are far fewer.
Jones is probably correct about it decreasing
your quality of life -just knowing that 20 armed
SWAT team members can come into your home
at any time to harass you can do that.

The drug problem is not as simple as Jones'
column. Telling families that they should lock up-
their kids for their own good is also not the
answer. We are moving into a new millennium
and it is time to end the harm that is prohibition
and work on creating a society for everyone.
There are no new frontiers any more, so now it is
time to learn tolerance of our fellow humans and
all their foibles too. We can offer help if they will
take it. but forcing it is against our rights as inde-
pendent human beings. We need to work togeth-
cr in order 10 create a new soclwy for everyone. —

Megan
Roush

As
UCLA, I find myself experi-
encing what I'd like to call a
„ipid-college identity crisis. Although I
.4 was born and raised in Northern
C alifornia, I have been living in
»^^*Westwood for two years during
which my attitude, my dress, my
s peech, and
even my hair
have undergone
a metamorpho-
sis.
^*'~ The changes
have been such
that I find it dif-
ficult to solely
identify myself
as someone
from "NorCal."
I still have a

fondness (or as ^^

my Southern

Californian friends would say, a nos-
talgia that borders on romanticism)
for my native region, and it is strong
enough for me to wince at the idea of
completely abdicating my NorCal
identity.

This predicament has been partic-
ulariy glaring during the past few
weeks since I am writing from my 7
home base in the East Bay Area.
Recently I find that even in my most
familiar surroundings, I feel some-
what like an outsider as I struggle to
understand the behavior of individu-
als and of a culture that I used to
know very well.

1 feel I've lost the qualities that
were once innate just by living in the
Bay Area, such as the ability to relax
and appreciate the sedate settings.
Being a stereotypical laid back
NorCal giri doesn't come as easily
for me as it used to. For example, my
driving, which teamed with calmness
and patience when I still lived in
Northern California, has taken on
the stereotypical characteristics of
aggressive Los Angeles driving.
Being accustomed to the indifference
of strangers in Los Angeles, I am
(pleasantly) surprised to encounter a
friendly stranger at home,

I can no longer tap into NorCal
culture without analyzing the hell out
of it. The relaxed, friendly social cul-
ture that I used to take for granted
now seems strange to me.

If I had to cite one main reason
that Northern California differs from
Southern California, it would be that
Southern California culture is very
much based on "keeping up with the
Jones," that is, paying attention to

what others have and do and striving
to obtain and do the same. L.A. cul-
ture is based on looking, observing
and copying others.

While 1 don't want to completely
bash L.A. culture, I find that people
-from Northern California as a whole
tend to be less concerned about what
others are doing, unless they work in
Silicon Valley, where survival
depends on staying ahead of com-
^titors. People in L.A. seem to be
concerned with maintaining a social
hierarchy, which seems to be sup-
ported by the conventions of intense
social observation and consciousness
as well as visual wealth found in
Southern California.

In Los Angeles, it is particularly
important to display wealth through
visual symbols since many individu-
als define success and social status by
what they have. The wealth that I
have witnessed in the UCLA com-
munity may be influenced by the
proximity of Hollywood, Bel Air and
Beveriy Hills to our campus, even
though symbols of wealth appear to
be a unifying characteristic of most
of Southern California.

Southern Californians

have an obvious

disdain for Northern

California lifestyle.

deny these conventions exist; these
kinds of hyper social consciousness
are so internalized they're thought to
be normal

My mother, for example, always
remarks how she forgets she's still in
California when she visits LA., since-
everything is so foreign to her. Her
observation signifies that the

Southern California lifestyle is not
necessarily "normal," as its natives
would like to think. It is just one way
of life that has developed in response
to extreme economic competition,
the images of Hollywood, and even —
SbCal weather.

The French philosopher
Montaigne wrote an essay on canni-
bals that tries to demonstrate why no
culture can adequately judge another
or say that one is "better" than
another. What we can conclude from
Montaigne's essay is that certain
social conventions that work in one
culture don't necessarily work in oth-
ers. The same ideas apply I believe,
when looking at Northern and
Southern California cultures.

By living in L.A., I have picked up
the habit of observing others' images
and paying close attention to the
image I project in return. While
materialism is not unique to Los
Angeles, Northern California lacks
the Southern California habits of
such close observation. During the
past two years, my consciousness of
images has been dramatically
heightened.

Having the extreme consciousness
of social situations and symbols that
comes from living in L.A., and trying
to use that consciousness in
Northern California, where it's com-
pletely inapplicable has become a
problem. My NorCal friends don't
even know what I'm talking about
when I bring up the idea of height-
ened social consciousness. They tell
me to quit analyzing everything j)eo-
ple do and just "kick back."

One adjustment I had to make
when I cafne to UCLA was learning
the social codes of Southern
California - and believe me, they do
exist. I didn't understand why I had
to dress up to go into Westwood at
night, or why people didn't freely
associate with one another in social
situations. Slowly I began to under-
stand these conventions and why
they exist. What's funny is that some
Southern Californians will blatantly

Southern Californians have an
obvious disdain for Northern
California lifestyle. I know this
because I have experienced it first
hand. Somehow because NorCal
lacks the glitz of SoCal its residence
are judged as hippies or stuck in the
past. The stereotypes are hard to
fight off: :: V K : , , v: - .,

I've heard countless individuals at
UCLA try to convince me that they
can "tell" who is from NorCal based
on their clothes. Some people still try
to persuade me how rainy and cold
the weather is in NorCal when I
know that it's been more than 90
freakin' degrees everyday since I
came home for summer.

NorCal residents also have a dis-
dain for SoCal life, preferring the
relaxation and simplicity of the Bay
to the smog and traffic of the Basin. I
have also experienced this kind of
disdain first hand; you wouldn't
believe the hell I catch for coming
home with a suntan, blonde high-
lights in my hair, and using the word
"dope" instead of the traditional
"helld." Some of my friends' criti-
cism, which reflects the changes they
see in me, implies that I have "sold
out" to the Southern Californian ,
conventions. God forbid I should
forget to take off my sunglasses when
I come indoors, or I might lose all my
friends from the Bay Area.

I think it's important to analyze
why I've changed since coming to the
Los Angeles area. Maybe it's a sur-
vival tactic. After all, L.A. is proba-
bly one »f the laffeest supporters of
Social Darwinism. Simply put, in
L.A. you eat or you get eaten. In
order to be taken seriously (at least
socially), I have to alter my appear-
ance and attitude. I suppose 1 have
some shame in doing so. but unfortu-

places.)

But while the overwhelming
majority of men leave their legs and
underarms in this natural state,
women shave, laser or burn this hair
ofT. Women that do not do so are
then called unfeminine. or told that it
looks "weird " or "manly." Well.

guess what? I'm a woman - by
nature. I have two X chromosomesr

breasts and hips - and, by nature, I
have hajr on my legs and under my
arras. What could be more feminine
than that?

Don't get me wrong, I don't think

that altering your appearance or

wearing traditionally feminine
clothes is inherently self-hating or '
conformist. lalact, I myself wear
makeup almost every day, own 1 1

dresses and three skirts, and, gasp,
pluck my eyebrows. Those are my r '•
choices. Not shaving is also a choice.

Deep down, what 1 really want is
not for all women immediately to
throw down their razors or bottles of
Nair (although my heart leaps at the
thought), or for women never to
change their bodies or appearances
in any way. Simply, I would like
women's choices about their bodies
and their natural attributes to receive
respect and support.

Not shaving (for women) is not a
choice that is respected or supported,
and this has always been readily obvi-
ous to me. On day^ that I don't wear
makeup, I am never asked why I am
not. On days that I don't wear a
dress, I am never asked why I am
not. When I skip plucking my eye-
brows, I do not have people offer to
show me how, because they asstfme I
don't know. And when I do not put
on my jewelry, my parents do not tell
me that I am not allowed to leave the
house until I do. All of these things
have happened to me when it comes
to shaving.

I wonder if a single one

of these wohrien tells

her boyfriend how

disgusting she thinks

his hairy legs are.

My choice not to do so has always
been questioned? criticized, and
ridiculed. Even some feminists speak
of not shaving disparagingly, such as
when they criticize the "outdated"
image of feminists as bra-burning,
hairy-legged, angry women. It's
funny that people consider a natural
aspect of women's bodies a passe
trend.

I might sound bitter or like an iso-
lationist, but I feel strongly about this
subject because I see the significant
implications it has for women's lives.
I want women to feel they can make
choices about their bodies and their
lives based on reasons other than
what they are pressured or expected
to do. or what fits in with the status
quo ideals. But, unfortunately, that
seems to be the reasoning behind
many women's choices to shave. A
lot of women have told me, "I don't
think there's anything wrong with
not shaving, but I just like to shave,"
or, "I just like the way it looks." Such
statements seem very disingenuous
to me, and suggest that most women
comply with this custom without real-
ly questioning if it really is their own
will.

Had shaving not been introduced,
pushed and mainstreamed by the
fashion and shaving industries, I
highly doubt that the overwhelming
majority of women would shave, as
they do now. As if, eventually, one
day, it would simply just have

occQrred to the female masses that,
hey. we really need to waste 10 min-
utes of our daily lives, an average of
$ 10 a week on razors, gels, waxes,
and/or creams, and risk cutting and
burning our skin, just because!
I suspect that the reason women
_say they like how shaven legs and
armpits look is that they've never, or
very rarely, seen anything else. And I
also suspect that the reason why they
"just like it" is that their act of shav-
ing allows them to fit comfortably
into society's narrow definition of
what a woman looks like.

I have heard other women be a lot
more blunt in regards to how they
feel about shaving. Many have told
me that they shave simply because
hairy women are "disgusting" and
"ugly." As pejorative as such opin-
ions are, I have to say they amuse me
the most.

I wonder if a single one of these
women tells her boyfriend how dis-
gusting and ugly she thinks his hairy
legs are, if she asks him not to wear
sleeveless shirts because she thinks it
is disgusting and ugly, or if she tries
not to look at him naked because she
finds it disgusting and ugly. I doubt

it.; ::'.■■..■■■

It Still nfiakes me

nervous when I want

to raise nny hand in

class in a tanktop.

Obviously, what the United States
and other Western countries have
succeeded in doing is creating the
notion within people that men's bod-
ies are fine, acceptable and attractive
the way they are. but that women's
bodies are not - they require mainte-
nance, alteration, and conformity to
one specific standard.

Honestly, it's sometimes very diffi-
cult not to conform to such stan-
dards, even if not shaving seems like
a simple thing. After years of people
in my high school gossiping about me
because I didn't, of having my father
force me to do so before he would let
me out of the house, and having (for-
mer) friends say they are embar-
rassed to go out in public with me
when my legs or underarms are visi-
ble. I guess I've developed a small
complex about it.

It still makes me nervous when I
want to do something as mundane as
raise my hand in class when I'm
wearing a tanktop.

What that has taught me is that
beauty and behavioral standards for
women in our society are constantly
indoctrinated and strictly enforced,
leaving little room for us to act and
appear as we really want. So if I can
challenge that fact in any way. I guess
it's worth feeling a little self-con-
scious about my body every time
summer rolls around.

The UCLA Armand
Hammer museum features

various jazz artists every
Friday evening in July in
its fifth anntud festival

By Angela Salazar

Daily Bruin Senior Staff

The eclectic style and talents of jazz
music are now at your fingertips.

The fifth annual Westwood Jazz at
the Hammer series is back with an
impressive lineup of renowned perform-
ers. The festival is free and perfor-
mances are at 6:30 p.m. every Friday in
July in the courtyard of the UCLA
Hammer Museum.

"We always have a really impressive
selection of jazz artists from around the
country and around the world," said
Jennifer Barry, a spokeswoman for the
Westwood Business Improvement
District (BID), who is part of the mar-
keting committee for the festival. This
year's artists cover everything from clas-
sic jazz to blues-style jazz to
Brazilian/Latin jazz.

Last Friday's concert featured the tal-
ents of the Peter Erskine, Alan Pasqua
and Dave Carpenter Trio.

"They're a very modern, hip, pro-
gressive, traditional jazz trio. They have
sort of the young contemporary side to
appeal to that type of jazz following,"
said Todd Later, a member of the mar-
keting committee for the Westwood
BID that developed the concept for the
series.

This Friday, legendary clarinet and
saxophone player Teddy Edwards, wiH
' perform.

"I have a group of wonderful musi-
cians. I have Art Hillery playing piano,
and I have Wendall Williams playing
bass and Gerryck King playing the
drums and lastly I'm going to play the
tenor saxophone," Edwards said in a
recent interview. "We have in mind to
do a very wonderful evening of music
and hope we have plenty of people from
Westwood and from UCLA and many
other parts to come out and ))ear us
play." -.•^-■c-. .■.-^'...v.y^-^'^-.^-
Edwards and his accompanying
artists will perform a variety of jazz
music styles.

"We'll play some straight-ahead
swing, we'll play some blues and we'll
play some ballads and we'll play some
Latin music because we do a variety of
things and we hope to satisfy most of the
people that might attend." Edwards
said.

Since he began performing in 1936,
Edwards has done several recordings
and worked with many well-known
artists.

"I've recorded with so many people,
from Ray Charles to Benny Goodman
to Sarah Vaughn to Gerald Wilson to
Benny Carter. The list goes on and on,
plus doing my own thing," Edwards
said.

"This is my 64th year of playing pro-
fessionally and I'm not a has-been either^
I have plenty of energy and I have plen-
ty left to play," he said.

On July 21 Mayuto and Samba Pack
will perform Latin-style jazz. Mayuto is

often noted as one of the world's best
conga players.

"They are a sort of Latin/Brazilian
pop and R&B sound with a real Latin
element," Later said.

Finally, on July 28, Barbara
Morrison will perform. Morrison's 25-
year career in jazz includes recording in
genres ranging from blues to gospel to
pop. She is fiimous for her ability to per-
form soul-stirring blues vocals.

In addition to the music, local restau-
rants are presenting a selection of com-
plimentary hors d'oeuvres before each
concert. This year's restaurants include
Palomino, Tengu, Maui Beach Cafe and
Westwood Brewing Company.

"It's sort ofa community gesture and
a sampling of what the local restaurants
have to offer." Barry said. During the
concert, for the warm summer evenings.
Black Tie Catering provides a bar where
drinks can be purchased.

The museum also stays open an hour
later than the usual closing time of 7
p.m. with tree entrance for visitors that
evening.

According to Later, the concert usu-
ally attracts between 800 and 1,000 peo-
ple.

"What we've tried to create here is
not only a great venue for listening to
jazz but also a nice location for happy-
hour networking," Later said.

' The concept for the series began sev-
eral years ag^>.

Sputnik7.com, an entertainment-based Web
site, has so much to offer that one can easily b^
lost within the site, constantly discovering new
and more interesting links to check out.

With an opening page featuring some ,

sperm who are supposedly "too slow" at
attempting to fertilize an egg, sputnik7.com is
quite an eye-catcher.

This site has a theme that screams the
underdog status of the Internet - providing a
medium to distribute independent, under-
ground and less mainstream content. It is
noted as the world's first real-time audio/video
online entertainment provider.

Visitors can basically find anything dealing
with the entertainment industry on this site.
Independent film and music programming is
available through the presentation of various

shorts and films, and through tfie sponsoring
of playlist-free Web radio stations.

Everything is presented on the site as vari-
ous "stations." of which there are many, each
with its own unique theme. Upon entering
■'Video Stations," viewers are presented with
four additional "stations" to look at.

One exanhple is "Alt/Electronic," which
hosts indie-type music ranging from California
ska to heavy metal. There is also a Film/Anime
4ink which offers showings of award-winning
shorts as well as anime features.

More than 50 short films will be available
this summer on sputnik7.com. Recently pre-
miered is "Horned Gramma," a short which
was an official selection at the 2000 Spike &
Mike Festival of Animation and the 1998
Chicago Underground Film Festival.

With accredited chairman Chris Blackwell,
founder of Island Records and Palm Pictures,
it's no wonder that sputnik7.com has encoun-
tered much success. In December 1999, the
Web site was one of the first to win an ASCAP
(The American Society of Composers,
Authors and Publishers) Deems Taylor Award
for outstanding music-related content and cre-
ative excellence. Especially notable was the
fact that this was the first year that the ASCAP
offered awards to Internet organizations.

Sputnik7.com has a lot to offer. Ranging
from videos to music, basically anything deal-

trying to sell viewers anything but a good time.

entertaining stories written by content

Additionally, atomicliving.com offers more

Star Trek actor's novel expands on fictional universe

Title: A Stitdi in fime
Author Andrew Robinson
Publishen Pocket Books
Price: $6.50 Pages: 393

JACOB LIAO/Daily Bruiri

BOOK: In Asimov style,
Andrew Robinson gives
touch of reality to sci-fi

By Howard Ho

Daily Bruin Contributor

Before Isaac Asimov, the science
fiction genre was similar to the horror
genre, providing a chilling vision of
something that might exist. After
Asimov, however, science fiction writ-
ers became more like historians, docu-

menting a future consistent with itself
Asimov's own history of the future
spanned from 1-996, a time that he pre-
dicted would see the invention of
human-like robots, to tens of millennia
later when the Galactic Empire would
come under the power of the
Foundation.

Perhaps the only other future histo-
ry more daunting than Asimov's is
Gene Roddenberry's. Star Trek has
created a universe so complete that
Klingon is considered a real language.
In this tradition comes Andrew
Robinson's "A Stitch in Time," a novel

about Elim Garak's coming-of-age.
Robinson, who played Garak on the
TV series "'Star Trek: Deep Space
Nine," provides insight into alien cul-
ture and helps further clarify the minu-
tiae that define the Star Trek universe.
Garak is known to most casual Star
Trek fans as the tailor on DS9. But as
later episodes reveal, Garak was an
instrumental figure in the Obsidian
Order, the Cardassian version of the
CIA. Garak, exiled on DS9, returns to
a fallen Cardassia where he constructs
a memoir for Dr. Julian Bashir, an
esteemed cohort from DS9.

"A Stitch in Time" is Garak's story,
told in three converging narratives.
The first is the present Garak, trying to
make sense of the ruins of Cardassia.
The second is the Garak prior to
Cardassia's liberation from the
Dominion. The third, and most com-
pelling, is the young Garak, trying to
make his mark in society.

As expected, Robinson lays out
many details of Cardassian infrastruc-
ture. Cardassia itself consists of a capi-
tol surrounded by six "spokes" of vary-

Ksyan and Lauren Abedinl star as Sam and Sara, two children strand-
ed on the streets of Los Angeles In the movie "Surviving Paradise."

Tale of lost kids is relief
from formulaic flood

FILM: Indie movie's take
on diversity stereotypical,
still outdoes mainstream

By Emilia Hwang

Daily Bruin Senior Staff

Welcome to the summer block-
buster. This year's l)ig-budget
Hollywood production would like to
introduce you to a company of actors
who appear purely for your aesthetic
pleasure; more water than you'd need
to float an ark; and a plot with vital sta-
tistics that flatline.

Thanks to your patronage, the
untamable forces of "The Perfect
Storm" have clearly washed out the
competition for this summer's box
office returns.

Enter an independent film. Director
Kamshad Kooshan cannot compete at
the box office with Wolfgang

Peterson's unbeatable equation (o^k-
success. - ' .'■'

Without the formulaic elements of
big names, mind-numbing special
effects and overly simplistic story lines,
Kooshan's "Surviving Paradise" can-
not draw large audiences in its first
weeks in limited release. Nevertheless,
the independent film is a force to be
reckoned with, offering summer audi-
ences a refreshing break from ritualis-
tic blockbuster brain damage.

In the movie, Pari (Shohreh
Agdashloo) is kidnapped from the air-
port upon her arrival in America, and
her two children are forced to navigate
the streets of Los Angeles alone. Ten-
year-old Sam (Keyan Arman Abedini)
and his younger sister Sara (Lauren
Parissa Abedini) encounter potentially
dangerous characters as they attempt
to find their only relative in town. '

But the gangsters, prostitutes and

ing purposes. Garak b^ns life'
among the farmers of T^ak. the
administrative spoke of Cardassia.

The "Cardassian mosaic" consists
of little social mobility, but when
Garak gains entrance to the presti-
gious school of Bamarren, he finds
access to power and a future in the
government. Bamarren's ruthless^
training techniques make college
seem like a walk through the Mandara
Valley on Tohvun III. It is here that
Garak finds friendship, love, betrayal,
and, most importantly, himself

Robinson borrows much from
popular literature. The account of
Garak's trek through the Mekar
Wilderness reminds one of Frank
Herbert's brand of spiritual disci-
pline, especially when he starts to

learn the stealthy ways of a regnar
lizard. The truth behind how Garak
was able to attend Bamarren despite
his social standing recalls Dickens'
Pip in "Great Expectations."
Robinson's Shakespearean plot line
even garners irony from Garak's own
description of Shakespeare as "politi-
cally misguided" and not making
much sense.

Robijison uses these literary allu-
sions to evoke classic themes in a new
jetting. Indeed, the charm of the novel
comes from its settings deep within
Cardassia, a place that is light years
away from Shakespeare's England.
While much of the Star Trek universe
is Federation-centric, Robinson deliv-
ers a world where humans are care-
less, good-intentioned meddlers, and
Cardassians are the characters the
reader must identify with.

The conflicts between the
Federation and Cardassia reflect

those of our worid. While Cardassians
are superior to humans psychological-
ly, they have yet to learn about the
virtues of democracy. Similarly, many
countries today struggle to find
democracy after centuries of dictator-
ship. ' '.-- ''■••■': ''■■■■:■' ■••■.-•

In the tradition of the Star Trek
that deats with issues of today,
Robinson challenges readers to
understand different cultures and
ways of thinking. Though Rojbinson's
book is essentially a novelized version
of a TV episode, it is not an episode of
special elTects or outlandish romanti-
cism, but of genuine spirit and s tri ng
characters.

Despite obscure references to char-
acters and events in the TV series that
appeals to diehard fans, "A Stitch in
Time" proves that Star Trek is, and
always has been, about bridging the
gap between peoples in a universe of
infinite possibilities. =^ -

is push and hit each other. Now I
don't profess to be any sort of a
moshing expert, but at least 1 do
know the difference between
moshing and street fightings

On an even higher level of
annoyance is the whole "crowd
surfing" phenomenon. Again,
there's nothing wrong with a little
floating here and there, but when
that 380-pound big boy decides he
wants to be passed over your
head, you know that things have
gone a little too far.

The same goes for the guy with
his studded belt, necklace, rings,
and steel toed boots who decides
that he's a kickboxer when his feet
are two inches from your face.

This is not WWF, and there is
no championship belt to be won.

It's about flowing to the music
and grooving to the beat.

If that weren't enough, there
are always those perverts who
decide they can fondle and grope
any and all females who pass
above their heads.

To all guilty parties involved,
here is some advice: 1) if you
don't know how and when to
mosh, stay out of the pit; 2) just
because a girl is floating over your
head doesn't mean she is coming
on to you; and 3) remember the
Cranberries are not hardcore.

I'm not trying be the party ref-
eree. Just use your common sense
in having fun and remember what
your kindergarten teacher taught
you about common courtesy.

PARADISE

From page 19

transients in this movie turn out to be a
soufce of empowerment rather than a
fountain of vice.

"Surviving Paradise" ofTers a refresh-
ing view of diversity in Southern
California. Instead of a paradise lost to
these outsiders caught in violent negotia-
tions. Los Angeles is a paradise where
unity is found in celebrating diversity.

For the Iranian American children,
who must navigate through a rainbow of
ethnic neighborhoods, hope and help
come in all colors, ranging from African
Americans to Asian Americans to
Mexican Americans.

Diversity is power to Kooshan. The
Iranian-born writer, director and pro-
ducer attempts to reconcile race rela-
tions in a "salad mix" metaphor.

The film offers some beautiful
episodes of idealistic equality that bridge
class and culture, including a homeless
man who gives his blanket to the children
asleep on a park bench and a gangster
u ho gives Sam his pager number (which
is usually reserved exclusively for "cus-
tomers").

Even the bad guys aren't your typical
\illains. They are actually incompetent
gophers for a boss who only exists in con-
versation.

Since the kidnappers do not appear to
be inspired by inherent evil, motivation
remains ambiguous.

The driving force behind the villain. '
Mr. F. is especially equivocal, as the
short story writer-turned-hit man is left
to ponder the effects of his present occu-
pation. His multi-faceted character solic-
its deeper inspection, much like the other

disenfranchised characters of the film. . j

Disappointingly, however, where
"Surviving Paradise" succeeds by pre-
senting alternative portraits of charac-
ters often stereotyped by mainstream '
Hollywood, it fails to keep itself from
falling into those same stereotypes. i

Ethnic caricatures become the by-
product of Kooshan's treatment of eth-
nic diversity. The volatile subject of
immigration explodes into one racial
stereotype after another.

The ow ner of the Chinese restaurant
can only speak with an exaggerated
accent and the Mexican drug dealer

makes a hetoic exit iiLadrive by shoot-

ing. The story's theme of tolerance is
counterproductive as ethnic caricatures
perpetrate the stereotypes they seek to
negate.

Furthermore, by trying to present an
odysseN through every ethnic ghetto in
Los Angeles, potentially eOective frag-
ments prove abortive in a loosely con--^
structed story. Short-lived roles are only
slim slices of the rich characters that !
could have developed

The film exhibits good intentions of
representing diversity in Los Angeles. '
But by attempting to cover too many
groups. Kooshan only touches on the •
complexity of race relations and the
result is an over-simplistic microcosm.

Though "Surviving Paradise" may
not be the perfect summer flick, it olTers
choice in a barrage of big-budget sum-
mer movies. In the honorable tradition
of independent films. Kooshan's feature
debut offers an alternative to the larger- :
than-life "Storm" and proves that you I
don't need a deluge to tell a story. I

said. From there, the Westwood
BID was established and money
was allocated to create programs
that would brmg renewed interest in
Westwoocf Village.

"One of the ideas we had was for
a jazz series, and that was on the
basis that we could find the right
venue in Westwood to provide a
jort of self-contained environment
that could accommodate 1.000 to

(which is) a very successful museum
but we wanted to give them the

Since then, the Westwood Jazz

"We've worked with UCLA and

costs for the venue and putting on

The primary sponsors of the fes-
tival are Arden Realty and GTE,
but a small portion of funds also
come from the Westwood Village
Community Alliance. The
Westwood BID works with Festival
Productions, a well-established jazz
production company, to develop the
lineup f6r the festival.

"They are very effective in

putting together, the right mix for
our audience," Later said.

The four concerts in this year's
festival provide a variety of differ-
ent jazz styles along with an enjoy-
able ttmosphere for attendees.
Later hopes that this combination
will bring new people into
Westwood as well as entice business
people to stay after work for the
concerts before heading home.

"We encourage people to come
out and start their weekend in
Westwood," Later said.

JAZZ: The Westwood Jazz at the
Hammer series Is every Friday in July
from 6:30 to 8 p.m. In the courtyard
of the UCLA Armand Hammer
Museum at 10899 Wilshire Blvd. The
concerts are free to all who attend.
For information call (310) 443-7000.

TOLSON

.♦ ■ ■ " '■ ■-?■■•'■■,
From page 28 ■ 7; v. •

"She knows that no time is being
wasted. All the growing pains that
athletes go through, she went through

■ at Northridge," Bolden said.

"She knows that she's on center
stage now, and when it comes to prac-
tice and competing, she turns it on,"

_ Bolden added.

It's this seasoned quality that has
carried Tolson through her season of
ups and downs, and will help maintain
her focus in one of the biggest meets

—of her life.

Struggles like being named Pac-IO

- athlete of the week after the Mt. Sac

^Relays, where she qualified for the tri-
als with her throw of 56-10 3/4, but

" then not placing as high as she would
have liked at the NCAA meet have
given Tolson a level head. :^

—J

Her discipline gives her what it
Hakes to succeed in the shot put.

"This event is really hard. With the
discus and the javelin throw, the wind
can help you, but here you've really
got to muscle it out." Venegas
explained.

Competing in not only the shot put
but the hammer throw as well, Tolson
is up against the best throwers in the
world for two days of competition in
the stifling Sacramento heat.

Despite her success in the hammer
throw throughout the 2000 outdoor
season, including the 2000 Pac-IO title
after her 208-5 launch, Tolson insists
that the shot put is where her chances-
are best.

"I've got a better chance in the
shot," Tolson said. "Coach says-there
are places open."

Her lifetime best, currently at 56-
1 1, is just inches away Trom where she
needs to be to do well, according to

Venegas,

But because of Tolson's hard work,
and because she is an "explosive" per-
former, she's got a shot, according to
Venegas. "She's very driven; she just
doesn't quit. One bad meet won't take
her out of it."

"She just doesn't quit.

One bad nneet won't

take her out of it."

Art Venegas

— Co ach

ing the ability of these two.

"Their marks haven't really been
very high this year," Venegas said.
"Even at 56-11. the top girls aren't
going to be very scared about it. but I
think that if they really catch fire, they
can both PR and get a lifetime best. "

Competing in the Olympic Trials
means accomplishing a lifelong
dream for Christina Tolson since she
started competing iri track and field.

"It was a dream, but I didn't think
it would be a reality," Tolson said. 'I
always wanted to go to the Olympics,
I just didn't know that it would come
so soon though. I'm just trying to
mak e it."

With Tolson' and teammate
Chaniqua Ross ready to storm
through the shot put event, the com-
petition may have been underestimat-

"I'm excited. I need to relax right
now because I'm overwhelmed. I
can't believe I've actually made it to
the trials," Tolson added.

This is the mind-set that she com-
petes with. She knows what she wants,
she knows what she has to do. and she

is ready to give it everything she has.

"I'm going for the mark to make it
there. If anything, fR-ing and doing
the best that I've done this year is
what I'm hoping for," Tolson added.

With her teammates and coach
looking and cheering her on, Tolson
spins again to launch another awe-
some throw.

"There it is, that's it, that's the
form right there. With this form, you
can throw better with more pressure.
Now with more pressure, the better
you'll throw, and that's what you
need," Venegas explains. - ;

In Sacramento she will bcin a sim-
ilar throwing circle to the one at
Drake Stadium, with her shot put
confidently clutched in her right
hand. The difference will be that
depending upon where the ball lands.
Tolson will be rewarded not only by
the praise of her coach, but possibly
with a spot in Sydney.

"I always wanted to

Because Roberts was

was even easier.

be tougher," Hanley said.

Minus Hanley, the other three
Bruins who competed this weekend
will be attempting to qualify for the
Olympics throughout the summer.

Though only international competi-
tions count as Olympic qualifying
matches, this tournament was a good
gauge of who will end up on the sand in
Sydney.

While Jordan and Davis are the top
U.S. team, both McPeak and May, and
"Srce^ahd Fontana are strong coiF
tenders for the two positions available.

"Every weekend someone else is
winning," Jordon said. "But right now
Holly and Misty are probably the most
consistent."

With five more international tour-
naments left for the teams to qualify,
including stops in Germany, France,
Portugal, Japan and finally China, the
players give it their best in spite of the
extensive travel schedule, which will
wrap up on Aug. 13.

There are four top teams, but only
the two with the eight best finishes con-
tinue on to Sydney.

"We haven't even thought about
that (the Olympics) yet," said Jordan.
"We have to focus on making it first."

AVENGERS

Frompage31

Former Bruin and SaberCat kicker Chris
Sailer made all but one extra point attempt,
and also made field goals of 45 and 25 yards.
His 62-yard attempt in the third quarter was
blocked, though.

The Avengers were plagued by injuries.
Starting quarterback Todd Marinovich left
the game in the first quarter with a rib injury,
Tray Crayton left in the second with a sprained
left foot, and Victor Hall left the game on a
stretcher in the third.

Los Angeles ...felt they
earned respect from the
leading team in the
conference..--:

J Los Angeles still produced spectacular
Iriays, like Damien Groce's touchdown pass in
the third. As Groce caught the ball in the end
lone he was smacked in mid-air by two
SaberCats, both of whom landed on him. But
when they got off, Groce had the ball safely
tucked in his arms.

After Marinovich was taken out,
Semptiphelter stepped in. Though he hadn't
played in four weeks, he completed 18 of 31
passes for 346 yards and hit seven touchdown
passes. His only regrets were the two intercep-
tions he threw,^"I wish I could have those
throws back," Semptiphelter said.

Wide receiver and defensive back Anthony
Rice had three touchdowns, including a 55-

mark of 72-3. He is ranked sec-
ond on the trials list with his
mark of 226-6.

Godina has dominated the
shot put competition recently,
and won World outdoor titles in
1997 and 1995.

He raked in NCAA shot put
titles in his final two years as a
Bruin in 1994 and 1995. Having
already won a silver medal in
the shot put in the 1996 Atlanta
Olympic Games, Godina enters
the trials with valuable experi-
ence under his belt.

Also competing in the throw-
ing circle is Seilala Sua, the ath-
lete with the most wins in
UCLA track and field history, a
four-time outdoor discus cham-
pion and both the 2000 indoor
and outdoor shot put champi-
on.

Sua is currently sixth in the
world in the discus and enters
the trials in third with a mark of
212-3. She is behind second-
place Powell's throw of 214-3.

"I'm excited," Sua said. "My
training is starting to come on,
so it's making things more fun,
and I'm feeling a lot better."

Coming on strong in the shot
put will be junior Christina
Tolson and Chaniqua Ross.

Tolson, who will compete in
both the shot put and hammer
throw, has had a season of ups
and downs, but with her 2000
Pac-10 hammer throw crown
and her second-place finish in

the shot put, Tolion will be
ready to perform in the face of
pressure.

"They're ready, to throw.
They're not in this late season
slump," said Venegas.

"They're throwing better
than ever.

"Nobody feels that they're
winding down. They're picking
up the steam. There's so much
energy, I can feel it," he contin-
ued.

Tracy O'Hara, currently fifth
in the world, has a shot at the
pole vault team. Barely missing
the world record of 15-1 earlier
in the season, O'Hara has a
chance to be the first UCLA
member of the USA women's
pole vault squad. As the 2000
Indoor and Outdoor champion,
she has been training hard for
over half a year.

**It's been a very long season,
and I know that they're looking
to get this meet out of the way,"
pole vault coach Anthony
Curran said.

"They're all fired up, though,
and it depends on that day."

Track and field is decided in
a single race, or throw, or jump.
Anything can happen. It leaves
an element of surprise with
each and every event.

The trials offer athletes, both
veteran and rookie, a ticket to
the next level. Highlighted by
performances of a lifetime and
painful defeats, the Olympic tri-
als is the next step in the career
for some, and a dream come
true for everyone who makes it
that far. ; :

Bruin alumnae compete in volleyball semifinals

BEACH: McPeak, May

Farmer signs with
Steelers

Former UCLA wide receiver Danny
Farmer signed a three-year, $1.1 million con-
tract with the Pittsburgh Steelers July 6. He
also received a $300,000 signing bonus.

"Now I'm just looking to fit in," Farmer
told the Orange County Register. "I'm going
to do what I can to add to the great receivers
we already have."

Farmer was the only Bruin selected in the
2000 draft in April, when Pittsburgh took
him in the fourth round. He set the UCLA
career receiving record with 3,020 yards.

Having recovered from his recent bout
with injuries. Farmer will report to traiiyng
camp in Latrobe, Pa., on July 16.

"I'm healthy, and I feel -good," Farmer
said. "I'm ready." »

Missouri cancels series

The University of Missouri is nixing the
series that was scheduled against UCLA for
the 2001 and 2002 seasons.

Deciding that their 2001 season was chal-
lenging enough with teams like Texas and
Nebraska already on the schedule, Missouri
proposed moving the dates of the contests.

Talks over several months between the two
schools have yet to resolve the matter.

"UCLA was at least agreeable to let
Missouri find an acceptable substitute for the
series," Missouri associate athletic director
Gene McArtor said in a statement. "We
found other schools to play in pur place, but
none of those were acceptable to UCLA,
which is their prerogative."

Since the two schools had a contract,
UCLA may take legal action, citing as much
as $500,000 in losses in television, ijevenue
that the games could generate.

UCLA Nres new coaches
for women's basketball

W.HOOPS: Carrier, Jackson join staff; team looks to
recruit, rebuild aflBr loss of top players to graduation

By Amanda Fletcher

Dally Bruin Senior Staff

UCLA women's basketball head
coach Kathy Olivier announced two
new additions to her coaching staff
last Thursday.

Tia Jackson takes on the first assis-
tant coach role,

replacing «..^_^_«_i_
WilletteWhite.a
seven-year mem-
ber of the
UCLA staff
Thcon Carrier
replaces Molly
Tutler as the
third assistant.
" The desire to
become a head
coach drove
White to pursue -^^— ^— ^
other avenues,

while Tutler is now the second assis-
tant coach at UC Irvine, according to
Olivier.

"They were just ready to move
on," she said.

But Jackson and Carrier are ready
to assume their new roles as Bruin
coaches.

A former WNBA player and assis-

tant coach at Stanford, Jackson wit!
bring her extensive basketball knowl-
edge and recruiting experience to the
Bruin squad.

"I can't think of any

other place in the

country I'd rather be

than here."

Theon Carrier

Assistant basketball coach

"She was highly recommended by
several people in the profession,"
Olivier said. And it's not hard to see
why. Jackson attended the University
of Iowa, where
. she led her team

to four Top 25
finishes, includ-
ing a Final Four
berth her junior
year. Drafted in
the first round as
the ninth overall
pick, she played
all but two
games for the
Phoenix
, Mercury in its

first season. And
while she was an assistant coach at
Stanford, the Cardinal tied for sec-
ond in the Pac-10 last season.^

But leaving Stanford didn't even
cross Jackson's mind until she got a
call from Olivier.

UPDATE

Hearing date to
be set for Faoa
on July 10

A meeting to set the prelimi-
nary hearing for UCLA line-
backer Asi Faoa is scheduled for
July 10 at 8:30 a.m. Faoa. his
lawyer Milton Grimes and
deputy district attorney Dana
Garcetti are scheduled to meet at
the Los Angeles Municipal
Court. >

Faoa was arrested on June 16
on one count each of mayhem
and assault, six weeks after an
altercation at a fraternity party
that left third-year psychology
student Rodrigo DeZubiria with
brain damage.

Faoa pled not guilty at his
arraignment on June 19. A pre-
liminary hearing date could not
be set at that time, however,
because Grimes was not present.
At the arraignment, attorney
MaryEtta Marks represented
Faoa in Grimes' stead.

At the hearing, witnesses from
both sides will testify, and the
judge will decide if there is suffi-
cient evidence for the case to go
to a jury trial.

Rembert pleas no contest to theft charge

W.BASKETBALL Forward
suspended, likely to serve
three months of jail time

By Christina Teller and Pauline Vu

Daily Bruin Senior Staff

Ayesha Rembert, a junior forward
on the UCLA women's basketball
team, pleaded no contest to three
burglary and theft charges on July 6.

According to the charges, she stole
several items, including a laptop com-
puter, diamond earrings and a cellu-
lar phone, worth about $3,000, from
TifTiny Walls, a third-year history stu-
dent, in the early morning hours of
Dec. 27.

Rembert entered her no contest
plea just as jury selection was about
to begin for her Superior Court trial.

"I'm happy that it's finally come to
an end," Walls said. "1 definitely feel

that she got off a little bit easy by
being able to plead no contest and
basically get out of what she had done
without openly admitting it."

The day following her arrest after
a basketball practice in Pauley
Pavilion, Rembert, a transfer from
Marquette, was indefinitely suspend-
ed from the team for what assistant
director of sports information Steve
Rourke called "a violation of team
rules." Athletic department officials
have not commented on whether or
not the suspension had anything to
do with the arrest.

After she discovered the items
were missing, Walls, who had been
Rembert's friend for nearly a year,
confronted Rembert, who denied any
wrongdoing. Walls then filed a report
with the LAPD on Dec. 27.

On Jan. 14, Walls found a package
on her doorstep that had no return
address but included several of the
missing items, including the earrings

and the phone. Walls later received a
Federal Express package that held
the jacket and the laptop, though the
laptop was partially damaged.

LAPD Detective John Eum, the
lead detective on the case, traced the
second package to a business on
Santa Monica Boulevard. A clerk at
the store then identified Rembert out
of an eight-person lineup as the per-
son who sent the package.

On the day of her arrest, Rembert
signed a written confession in which
she admitted to stealing several items^
from Walls, according to Eum.

"She did write out a confession."
Eum said at the time. "I asked her
why she did it. At first she didn't want
to give me an answer, but later stated
that she had done something stupid."

Eum said that Rembert told him
her athletic scholarship did not give
her enough money to survive.

According to Eum, Rembert used
Wall's spare keys, which she took on

Dec. 25, to enter Walls' residence.
She then took Walls' belongings on
Dec. 27 while Walls was sleeping.

Weelcs after her confession,
Rembert pleaded innocent at her
Feb. 9 arraignment. Sh? has been
granted several continuances since
then.

The latest step in the case was her
no contest plea. Rembert's sentenc-
ing has been scheduled for Aug. 18.

According to Deputy District
Attorney Alyson Messenger,
Rembert will likely receive three
months in county jail, a suspended
state prison term and three years pro-
bation, along with paying restitution
and undergoing counseling.

The incident upset Walls in a way
she has not been able to fully recover
from.

"It's just something you can't for-
get about. It hurt me a lot. She was
supposed to be my friend, and I take
friendship seriously," Walls said.

U C 1. A

Ayesha Rembert

"I hope she has learned a lesson,"
Walls added. "I know I learned a
valuable lesson about who you can
trust and who you can let into your
life." ■■, ^ : - •-

Watch the field to keep
track of all those Bruins

Despite rough roads,
this shot-putter strives
to throw one in Sydney

By Christina Teller

Daily Bruin Senior Staff

With the shot put firmly gripped in her right hand,
she confidently walks toward the throwing circle.
One foot in front of the other, her eyes focused on the
cement inlay, Christina Tolson mechanically eases
into her throwing position.

Within the blink of an eye,
her body has rotated 360
degrees and the ironball has
been launched 58 feet in the
air, all because of her finely
tuned physical mechanics.

"See how much height you
can give it with the legs, there
like that! That was close to 58
feet. That would be a big throw
at the trials," UCLA throwing
coach Art Venegas says as he
watches Tolson during practice.

The key elements to a good thrower are skill, bal-
ance and strength, especially in the legs.

"It's hard to be a thrower," Venegas explains.
"You have to be a good lifter, as well as a good throw-
er."

"(Christina) works hard at all facets, that's what I
think makes her so solid as a thrower."

With the Olympic trials just around the corner.
Tolson is as focused as ever and ready to show the
nations best what she's really capable of..

With a frustrating meet at the NCAA champi-
onships in early June behind her. she is looking to
avenge disappointment caused by her fifth place fin-
ish III the shot put and the hammer throw.

Going into that meet. Tolson sat atop the lists of
shot-putters, but fell short when it came time to com-
pete, placing fifth with her mark of 52-9 1/2.

"Ijieed to be more focused than I was at
NCAAs." Tolson said. "Something happened at

TRIALS: The heat is on for
several Olympic hopefuls
seeking a bid dow^n under

By Christina Teller
Daily Bruin Senior Staff

Under the hot Sacramento sun,
Bruins, both graduated and current,
will take the UCLA tradition to the
next level. The Olympic trials, start-
ing this week from July 14-23, repre-
sent a culmination of a lifetime of
hard work. - ■- — ,

With nine current Bruins and as
many as 17 alums vying for a spot,
the blue and gold will be well repre-
sented against the nation's best.

"The trials bring out the best and
worst performances," said women's
track and field head coach Jeanette
Bolden. "I'm glad that our athletes
are getting a chance to compete at a
higher level."

Like the 2000 Bruin squads,
UCLA is predominantly represent-
ed in field events. They will compete
in nine field events: men's and
women's discus, men's and women's
shot put, women's pole vault,
women's high jump, women's ham-
mer throw, women's triple jump and
men's javelin. Bruins will also com-
plete in seven running events: the

men's 100 meters, men's and
women's 200m, men's 10,000m,
men's 800m, women's 100m,
women's 100m hurdles, and
women's 400m hucdies. Each event
will take only the top three in the
U.S.

A handful of the events will fea-
ture face-offs between different gen-
erations of Bruins. In the 100m
dash, senior Shekedia Jones will
face alum Gail Devefs.

Jones, who placed fifth in the
NCAA championships despite suf-
fering from a strained hamstring, is
entered as No. 14 for the trials with
her time of 1 1.23 seconds which she
ran at the NCAA meet.

Devers, who entered 2000 ranked
fifth in the world in the lOOm, is
third in the nation with a time of
10.94. Devers has been at the top of
world competition through the '90s
and earned the World Outdoor title
in the lOOm in 1993 and the lOOm
hurdles in 1993, 1995 and 1999.

Most of the alumni throwers who
will be competing at the trials, are
members of the Reebok Bruin track
club coached by Art Venegas, the
throwing coach and men's head
coach.

John Godina, who graduated in
'95, is atop the shot put list with his

NCAAs, and I need to change whatever it was."

She looks to the trials as another chance to redeem
herseir.

"Thiits something 1 need to put behind because I
need to go on." Tolson said. "I want to show them
what I can do."

To watch her compete and practice is to observe
the embodiment of intcn.sc locus.

"She is a very focused and very serious person."
women's head coach Jcancttc BoldtMi said. "She's
been to the big meets, and she knows what she
wants."

ASUCLA: Better-paying
jobs, internships cut in
on potential work force

By David King

Daily Bruin Contributor

"Help Wanted" signs may be
in many Associated Students of
OCLA establishments come
September, following a shortage
of student employees for the asso-
ciation.

On-campus restaurants and
the UCLA Store suffered record
low numbers of student appli-
cants during spring quarter, leav-
ing many jobs vacant.

In response, ASUCLA offi-
cials formed a summer-long task
force early in July to develop and
propose a plan to resolve the
issue.

though the association laid ofT
19 career employees in mid-June,
officials said there are no plans to
lay off student employees.

The lack of stuiient applicants

is mainly caused by the changing
campus population, said Bob
Williams, director of food ser-
vices for ASUCLA and also the
head of the task force.

"The general feeling is that stu-
dents today are more focused on
school," he said.

Williams also said college stu-
dents generally have options
other than on-qimpus employ-
ment.

"They are very sought-after
employees, so it's a competitive
market when trying to get stu-
dents," he said.

The task force is considering
raising wages of specific student
positic)ns, an idea Dario Bravo,
assistant director of Internship
and Study Abroad Services, said
is a must.

Most wages for starting posi-
tions currently displayed on the
association's employment bul-
letin board fall between $6 and $7
hourly.

"On-campus jobs are going to
iTave to pay more," Bravo said.
"They may have to be more com-

petitive to get the students they
want."

Bravo also said students turn
to internships or career-oriented
jobs instead because they offer
higher wages and workplace
experience. He added many are
willing to intern without pay sim-
ply to gain experience.

"(Internships) expose them to
fields they'd like to explore,"
Bravo said. "Plus, a lot of the
employers will take these students
as potential employees."

With such competition in the
job market, informing and
attracting more potential employ-
ees is the task force's primary
goal, Williams said.

"We're looking at what we
think are the positive parts of the
job that we can point out to the
students," he said. "We want to
market better so that students are
aware of all these positives."

Such incentives include a 20
percent UCLA Store discount for
ASUCLA employees, flexible

JOBS: Projected uptick
in enrollment creates
need for faculty hiring

ByMaryHoang

Daily Bruin Contributor

In the upcoming decade,
approximately 7,000 new faculty
members need to be hired to
accommodate the influx of students
entering the University of
Califomia system as the result of
Tidal Wave II.

An additional' 3,000 faculty
members would supplement the
current faculty pool throughout the
UC system, and 4,000 will be need-
ed to replace retirees, according to
UC spokesman Brad Hayward.

"Systemwide, there is going to
be a 60,000-student increase,"
Hayward said. "The hiring of new
faculty is occurring on an ongoing
basis."

He sa'id the systemwide break-
down of the student enrollment is
expected to be 80 percent under-
graduate and 2C^percent graduate.

Alongside the UC's projected
employment growth, state and
nationwide increases are also antic-
ipated by state and feder^tl agen-
cies.

The California Employment
Development Office, a state agency
that projects labor change statistics
for the future, estimates an employ-
ment increase for all occupations at
23.6 percent statewide.

But the increases for all post-sec-
nndary fac ulty exceeds the entire

as high as 66.7 percent for comput-
er science teachers and 31.8 percent
for philosophy, religion and physi-
cal science.

There is also an expected
increase of 35.7 percent for chem-
istry teachers in the upcoming
decade.

"In order to determine projec-
tions we were conservative. The
estimates may be larger than the
expected in the end," said Karl
Hedlind, projection unit manager
at the California Employment
Development Office.

On a nationwide

basis there will be a

22.6 percent increase

in university and

college faculty.

"All occurring projects are a ref-
erence to the industry, staffing pat-
terns and school age population."

According to the Bureau of
Labor Statistics, there will be a 22.6
percent increase in university and
college faculty on a nationwide
basis. The only other occupation to
surpass university and college fac-
ulty is special education teachers.

Hayward said faculty hiring has
been steady in recent years. For the
1997-1998 and 1998-1999 fiscal
years, 362 tenure-track faculty were
hired throughout the UC system.

"We do know that these num-

coming years to allow UC to
accommodate all the additional stu-
dents who will be heading our way,"
he said.

The projected increase in the
UC system's student population
has led the university to pursue new
strategies to meet the enrollment
demand.

The university plans to do this
"with a focus on creative solutions
tailored to the needs of individual
campuses and their surrounding
communities," according to a UC
Web site dedicated to Tidal Wave

•L : -- ■

The first Tidal Wave occurred in
the 1960s, with the baby boomer
generation. The UC opened three
new campuses to absorb the influx.

This increase in the number of
incoming students is expected to
last longer than the original
increase, according to the Web site.

But only one new university -
UC Merced, opening in 2005 - is
being built to accommodate the
increase.

A variety of other possible solu-
tions to contend with incoming chil-
dren of the baby boom generation
include: increasing summer session
enrollment by expanding course
offerings; enrolling more students
in off-campus locations; and cut-
ting the average graduation time
from 1 3 quarters to 12.

"UC campus growth, along with
needed renovation and seismic pro-
jects, will require $500 million per
year in capital funding," according
the Tidal Wave II Web site. But the
Web site does not indicate the spe-
cific amount that will be allocated

AID: Supporters hope to

Legislation currently sitting on
Gov. Gray Davis's desk could guar-
antee Cal Grants to all qualified
applicants in the state by 2006, but
speculation persists about whether
the governor will sign or veto the bill.

If enacted. Senate Bill 1644, spon-
sored by Deborah Ortiz (D-
Sacramento) would increase the
number of Cal Grant recipients to
100 percent of those who qualify - a
marked increase from the 18 percent
of eligible applicants who received
grants for the upcoming school year.

"We're creating a promise, art
assurance, and an entitlement to stu-

dents who have come from poor fam-
ilies that financial assistance wilfnot
be an obstacle to.attending a universi*
ty or community college," Ortiz said.

Cal Grants are a form of renew-
able need-based financial aid distrib-
uted by the California Student Aid
Commission to students attending
public institutions of higher educa-
tion in California.

Between 7,500 to 8,000 UCLA stu-
dents have received Cal Grants each
year, and that number has been ris-
ing.

Eligibility for Cal Grants fluctu-
ates from year to year and is based on
a number of factors, most important-
ly a student's financial situation and
grade point average.

Based on the amount of money the
program gets from the state budget,
the CSAC sets certain GPA criteria
for each type of Cal Grant. SB 1644

COMMUNITY BRIEFS

Survey finds UC lab
has positive image

A January 2000 survey by the Charlton
Research Company found that the Lawrence
Livermore National Laboratory is seen as well-
managed, protective of its national secrets, safe
and an important economic resource to the
local community.

The survey excluded people who worked for
the lab. the Department of Energy and the
University of California.

"TTiet-ab is seen as a^ood neight)or and rtfe
community holds the Laboratory in high
regard.'" said Natasha Stein of the research
company.

Recently the UC's operation of the DOE
owned labs, which includes the Los Alamos
National Laboratory and Lawrence Berkeley
National Laboratory, has come under fire in
Congress after it was revealed that two hard dri-
ves containing nuclear weapons disarmament
information were misplaced.

Last year, the labs came under scrutiny after

Los Alamos scientist Wen Ho Lee
was arrested for allegedly mishan-
dling sensitive nuclear information.

Study shows Medicaid
poorly controls STDs

A UCLA study released last week concluded
that current managed-care policies lead to inad-
equate control of non-viral sexually transmitted
diseases among Medicaid patients, which
include a high proportion of at-risk individuals.

The study, doiie by the Center foT Health
Policy Research, was the first to examine STD
policies and practices among Medicaid
patients. Medicaid is a state and federal pro-
gram providing health care to approximately
35 million individuals and families. ''

"The managed care system often cites eco-
nomics, legal liabilities, physician autonomy,
and even religion as reasons for failing to
require adequate STD clinical practices and
treatment guidelines - but low organizational
priority seems to be the biggest culprit," said

Professor E. Richard Brown,

director of the center.

For example, less than half of the

managed care providers shared patient

information with the local health department to

curb the spread of STDs, the study said.

Medicaid subscribers are mostly low-income
women and children, including large propor-
tions of individuals who are considered at a
higher risk for STDs.

Researchers examined policies and practices
of managed-care organizations in seven large
cities whose populations have high numbers of
STD c^ses^nd large percentages of Medicaid
beneficiaries. ..■-.:■.- . •; • - -

Time magazine honors
architecture professor

Time magazine selected UCLA Professor
Greg Lynn as one of seven people changing the
face of design in its new series, "Innovators,
Time 100: The Next Wave." Lynn is featured in
the magazines July 17 issue.

The series is the culmination of 18 months of
work looking into tomorrow's leaders in the
fields of design, religion, sports, politics, health,
technology and finance.

"Greg Lynn is one of our school's many dis-
tinguished faculty, in the Department of
Architecture and Urban Design whose creative
vision is helping to shape the artists and design-
ers of tomorrow," said Daniel Neuman, dean of
the School of Arts and Architecture. "We are
gratified to see him receive such prominent
recognition for his work."

Lynn, who owns the architectural firm Greg
Lynn FORM, abandoned many traditional
architectural methods about eight years ago in
favor of computers.

He and 10 UCLA students in his
Embryological Housing seminar are represent-
ing the United States, along with Columbia
University, at the seventh International
Architecture Biennale in Venice, Italy, one of
the most prestigious forums for exhibiting
architecture internationally.

Orientation sessions seek to ease transition to
college; some say focus is too academic

KEITH ENRIQUEZ/[3aily Bruin Senior '.taff

An orientation group takes a rest after finding everything
on their list for the nighttime scavenger hunt.

By Dharshani Dharmawardena
Daily Bruin Senior Staff

When incoming freshmen arrivec]
early for their orientation to UCLA,
some of the counselors took them to
Westwood Village and told them to
find their way back to campus.
. "They took us to Diddy Riese and
said 'This is Diddy Riese,'" said
Monique Evans, an incoming math
student. "They didn't even take us
home and we ended up coming back
the long way."

For their part, some orientation

counselors who conduct this intro-

ductioato UCLA said the trip to the

village was meant as a traditional rite

' of passage for early arrival students.

"You have to find your way
back," said Brenclan Raher, an ori-
entation counselor and third-year
African American studies student.
"The students work as a team and
make friends, and they get used to
getting around a college campus."

Because attending a large school
can seem daunting to college fresh-
men, coming to one of the 1 2 sum-
mer orientation sessions makes the
transition easier, said Nichol Davis,
an orientation counselor and third-
year mathematics and economics
student.

"We're here to h^ ^students get
adjusted to coming to college both
academically and socially," she said.
"We're here to answer any questions
that may come up for students and
to let them know what UCLA is like
in a general sense."

The orientation counselors, who
live in Sproul Hall with the students,
began training during the first week
of spring quarter.

From their training, the coun-
selors learn the specific rules, regula-
tions and requirements for the
School of Letters and Sciences. Each
counselor focuses on a specific
major area and the student groups
are arranged according to major.
Undeclared students are placed in
groups in the area they indicated on
their application, such as life sci-
ences or humanities.

As part of their job, counselors

inform a student about his or her
specific academic program. Some of
this advice includes referring incom-
ing students to departmental advi-
sors and helping them to create bal-
anced class schedules for the first
quarter.

For Davis, who advises math and
atmospheric science students, bal-
ance means taking a math class with
two other classes that satisfy general
education requirements. Enrolling,
in a difilcult class and two easier
classes will make their first quarter
easier, she said.

Some students said they found
planning their fall quarter the most
difficult part of orientation.

"I've been working on my sched-

ule for hours," said Judith Spiro, an
incoming freshman.
'^ Nicole Yamada, who also plans to
attend UCLA in the fall, said she
never anticipated that counselors
would spend so much time on acade-
mic planning.

"The OCs were very helpful in
organizing everyone to plan their
schedules," she said. "I just didn't
expect them to focus entirely on
classes.

Although Yamada met people in
her group, she said she did not feel
the program was as social as it could
have been.

**l would have more activities
where students could interact on a
broader spectrum," she said. "1

don't think you really get to branch
out and meet other people the way
the program is set up."

Davis, on the other hand, said ori-
entation introduces students to both
social and academic aspects of
UCLA.

She added it lets each student find
out more information about campus
through various workshops and the
traditional barbecue.

"On the first day, they start off
with a presentation by a professor
and by the dean," Davis said. "Then
where they take workshops - then
they can pick and choose what they
want.

"They have to have two meetings
individually with their OC," she

added. "One on social, one on acad-
emics."

A panel of students also talks
about their college experience to
help the students, Davis said.

Tye Elliott, an incoming biology
student, expected all the academic
advice and information that orienta-
tion counselors provided for her.

"I was happy that they focused
more on all the academic aspects,"
she said. "That is what college is real-
ly for "

Raher said although orientation is
structured well, the groups could be
smaller.

"I think it might help if they had

COMMISSION: Changes
in pension fund may be
effort to oust treasurer

The Associated Press

SAN FRANCISCO The

University of California regent who
heads George W. Bush's California
campaign helped an investment firm
win a no-bid UC contract after its pres-
ident gave $80,000 to a Republican
fund, the San Francisco Examiner
reported July 16.

Regent Gerald Parsky. a Los
Angeles financier appointed to the UC

Republican Gov. Pete Wilson, told the
newspaper he was unaware of political
donations made to Bush and the GOP
by executives of the firm, Wilshire
Associates, also of Los Angeles.

Citing UC records and unnamed
"informed sources," the newspaper
said Parsky pushed for a restructuring
of the university's $59 billion pension
fund, urging an overhaul of investment
strategies and sparking a move to oust
longtime UC treasurer Patricia Small.

Parsky then persuaded UC to give a
series of consulting contracts to
Wilshire Associates, culminating with a
$350,000 no-bid contract in May to
carry out much of the restructuring.

Parsky downplayed his role in

followed UC procedures and was
made on merits. He also denied wanti-
ng to get rid of treasurer Small.

Federal election records show that
on May 1 1, one week before the UC
vote to hire the investment firm,
Wilshire president Dennis Tito donat-
ed $80,000 to a Republican Party soft
money committee raising money to
support Bush.

California law says appointees to
state boards and commissions cannot
"accept, solicit or direct" political
donations of more than $250 from
prospective contractors, except when
the contracts are awarded after com-
petitive bidding.

Board of Regents by former Wilshire's hiring, saying the decision

Tito said the donation had nothing
to do with the UC contract and Panicy

was not involved. He said the money
was solicited by his friend Bradford
Freeman, a Los Angeles investment
banker who is Bush's California fund-
raising chairman.

Parsky said he was unaware of the
donation. "I have never had any con-
tact with Mr. Tito about making contri-
butions to the Bush campaign," he said.

The regent said he does not play a
significant fund-raising role in the Bush
campaign, explaining his main job is to
direct Bush's political strategy in the
state. His company, Aurora Capital
Partners, is one of the state's most
active Republican fund^•aisers.

After Parsky became a regent, he

was named to head a UC committee
that oversees the university's pension

fund. He began urging regents to scru-
tinize Small's investment strategies and
her job performance.

Critics question the move to oust
UC treasurer Small, who has long man-
aged UC's pension fund.

Small "is an excellent treasurer,"
said former Regent Glenn Campbell, a
scholar at Stanford's Hoover
Institution. "Her rate of return has
been outstanding. Higher than almost
any other university."

In a 1999 report, the treasurer's

office said the fund had outperformed

comparable funds and had an annual

return of 16 percent over the past 20

Egypt's progress towards

FREEDOMS: Government
labels journalists as part
of Muslim extremists

By Mae Ghalwash

The Associated Press

CA I RO, Egypt — Egyptian journal-
ist Adel Hussein has a lot to say but
nowhere to say it.

His opposition newspaper, AI-
Shaab, has been suspended after the
government accused it of causing riots
because of its articles about an alleged-
ly blasphemous novel. Other papers
treat Hussein like a pariah. His Labor
Party, tagged as too cozy with Muslim
fundamentalists, has been ordered to
suspend activities.

Human rights groups say Hussein's
is among the latest voices of dissent to
be silenced in a country that claims to
be democratic.

"What happened to us ... kills the
amount of freedom in the press that
we had achieved. This freedom was
the only democratic progress we had
made," Hussein said.

Egypt's efforts to join the global
economy have not been matched by
moves to meet international standards
on political rights: freedom of expres-
sion, freedom of assembly and free
and fair elections.

Islamiya, is handcuffed to his wheelchair by police.

lesser democracy may be attributed to
President Hosni Mubarak's caution,
his choice to move his people along a
path slowly.

Mustafa el-Fikky, a top Foreign
Ministry spokesman and former
adviser to Mubarak, insists the govern-
ment's ultimate goal is a more open
Egypt.

"People criticize Mubarak for mov-
ing slowly. But this (pace) is good.
Egypt is a very difficult country to con*
trol," El-Fikky said at a recent event.

Soon after succeeding Anwar Sadat
to the presidency in 1981, Mubarak
freed scores of political prisoners.
Opposition parties and their newspa-
pers flourished. Human rights groups
were founded.

But in the early 1990s, the govern-
ment unleashed a tough crackdown on
a violent insurgency launched by
Muslim extremists. Thousands have
been jailed and 96'have been executed
since 1992. , . ■ ■.;"

Once the militants were crushed.

officials tumed to other voices of dis-
sent, like journalists and human rights
activists.

Critics say politicians who have
held onto their seats too long have
become intolerant of challenges and
unused to any checks on their power.
Some Cabinet members have held
their positions for at least a decade.

Opposition journalist Gamal
Fahmy, who was barred from writing
for just over a year, believes that his
fate was sealed not when he wrote in
Al-Arabi newspaper against the re-
nomination of Mubarak for a fourth
term, but for a piece critical of former
Prime Minister Kamal el-Ganzoury.

Mubarak "is more tolerant than his
ministers " Fahmy said. The ministers
"behave^ if the country was their
mother's farm."

Since the passing of a tough press
law in 1995, several journalists have
been barred from writing for varying
periods. At least six have been jailed
on libel charges. Three independent
newspapers have been shut down.

Hafez Abu Saada, secretary gener-
al of the Egyptian Organization for
Human Rights, was ordered into court
in February after a newspaper alleged
that he accepted a $25,000 check from
a British parliamentary committee in
return for writing a report that
accused police of abusing some 400
Coptic Christians in southern Egypt in
1998.

Under pressure from local and
international activists, the government
eventually accepted that Abu Saada
had received the money for a women's
legal aid project. The. trial was called
ofl-.

Abu Saada went on to act as lawyer
for liberal sociologist Saad Eddin
Ibrahim, whom police arrested June
30 on charges that included preparing
a documentary film on Egypt's elec-
tions that harmed the country's image.

"Rigging has become a way of life
for (Mubarak's National Democratic
Party), although they could win hon-
estly," Ibrahim said in an interview
with The Associated Press days before
his arrest. The government strongly
denies fixing elections.

Ibrahim said that Mubarak's
promises of free and fair votes could
be undermined by "people around the
president who have a stake in rigging
the elections."

The N DP controls 97 percent of the
seats in the 444-member parliament. '
In the early days of Mubarak's presi-
dency, elections were considered
cleaner, as demonstrated by NDP vic-
tories of just two-thirds of /the seats.
New parliamentary elections are due
in November.

Many of the restrictions on free-
dom are laid out in an emergency law
that has been in effect since Sadat's
1981 assassination by Muslim extrem-
ists. .

Circuit court Judge Robert Paul Kaye reads aloud the $145 billion
verdict the jury awarded in the Florida smokers' trial July 14 in Miami.

Punitive award could
bankrupt Big Tobacco

FLORIDA: Plaintiffs may
not see any seUlement
money after appeals

By Catherine Wikon

The Associated Press

MIAMI — Hundreds of thousands
of sick smokers slated to receive a share
of the colossal $145 billion punitive
damage award levied against the tobac-
co industry may die before ever getting
a penny from the tobacco companies.

Moments after Friday's devastating
verdict, tobacco companies promised
to appeal.

The companies had sought a verdict
of less than $400 million and claim the
historic damage award would put their
industry out of business. They also say
no final order can be signed for
decades until all smokers have their
individual compensation claims heard.

Although the two-year-old trial offi-
cially concluded with the damage
award, lawyers get only a weekend
break* before returning to court
Monday to discuss the next steps.
Attorneys representing the 300,000 to
700,000 sick Rorida smokers plan to
request a speedy process once the
industry appeals.

Meanwhile, some officials who

negotiated the states' $257 billion
national settlement with the industry
expressed concerns that Friday's jury
award could threaten their ability to
collect on that settlement

Louisiana state Treasurer John
Kennedy fears the jury decision could
effect annual payments on the state's
$4.6 billion share of the settlement, and
he wants to build security for the pro-
grams the settlement money is financ-
ing by selling bonds. The Florida
Legislature set up bonding mechanism
for its $13 billion share last spring, with
the bonds to be paid off as the tobacco
settlement payments come in.

"This-is just another reason why we
can't afford to gamble with money ded-
icated to health care and education on
the future of the tobacco industry,"
Kennedy said. Among other things, the
state uses those payments to fund col-
lege scholarships and make up budget
shortfalls in the Department of Health
and Hospitals, which administers
Medicaid.

But other attorneys general who
negotiated the national tobacco deal
show less concern about the flow of
funds. , . ^

"I don't think it will have any effect
on it, at least at this point," said
Mississippi Attorney General Mike
Moore, a leader in the efforts by stale
to sue to tobacco industry.

Palestinian peace talks show optimism

MIDEAST: Lack of time
pushes groups to reach
accord during summit

By Laura King

The Associated Press

THURMONT, Md.
Palestinian delegation sources from
the Camp David talks signaled opti-
mism July 16 about reaching an
accord, but Israeli officials said no
breakthrough was in the offing.

A White House spokesman said
the pace of talks was picking up,
with only three full days remaining
before President Clinton is to leave
for Japan.

"I think everyone understands
the calendar. ... They understand
that an intense effort is needed,"
spokesman Joe Lockhart told
reporters on Sunday^ the summit's
sixth day. •■

He described the atmosphere in
recent days as tense at times despite
the informal setting. "These issues
are difficult," he said.

The previous night, Clinton met
separately with Prime Minister

Ehud Barak and Palestinian leader
Yasser Arafat, then ate dinner with
the two seated on either side of him.
While declining to say what they
talked about, Lockhsjrt said, "The
dinners have always had a positive
feel to them."

The president attended Sunday
services at Camp David's
Evergreen Chapel and then met
with his negotiating team.

"It is hard at this point

to give some kind

of impression of

optimism."

YossiBeilin

Israeli justice minister

Palestinian delegation sources,
speaking on condition of anonymi-
ty, cited progress on some of the
issues on the table. Until now, the
Palestinians, who came reluctantly
to the talks, had been largely pes-

simistic in their assessmer)ts.

But several Israeli Cabinet min-
isters who had spoken by telephone
to Barak said there was no basis for
a claim of progress. Foreign
Minister David Levy, who chose
not to accompany Barak to the
talks, was especially downbeat.

"I am worried," Levy told
reporters in Jerusalem. "The situa-
tion there is far from an easy one,
and there is no sign that the gaps
are narrowing." T

The main points of dispute are
the boundaries of a future
Palestinian state, the fate of several
million Palestinian refugees and the
status of Jerusalem, which both
sides claim as their capital.

Israeli Justice Minister Yossi
Beilin, an architect of the landmark
Oslo accords, told Israel's army
radio that the talks were at a cross-
roads.

"It is hard at this point to give
some kind of impression of opti-
mism more than yesterday or the
day before yesterday, because there
has not been a breakthrough,"
Beilin said.

CAMPAIGN: Top priority
is still abortion; Nader
defends election decision

By Brigitte Greenberg

The Associated Press

WASHINGTON - George W.
Bush said July 16 his vice presidential
selection would be based on factors
other than the candidates' views on
abortion, despite the urging of con-
servative Christians that he pick an
anti-abortion running mate.

Bush was responding to James
Dobson, the president of Focus on
the Family, who recently said the like-
ly Republican nominee, "cannot and
will not" be elected president if he
"does not energize his base" of con-
servative Christians by picking a per-
son who opposes abortion. The Texas
governor said he gets "all kinds of
interesting advice."

Internet group to use
new domain names

YOKOHAMA, Japan - The private corpo-
ration overseeing changes on the Internet
approved the creation July 16 of the first new
top-level domain names on the computer net-
work since the 1980s. -

The decision, made at a conference in
Japan by the Internet Corporation for
Assigned Names and Numbers, will bring
additions to existing Web site suffixes such as
"com" and "org." But how many more suffix-
es or how they will be used remains to be
worked out.

The resolution, passed unanimously by
ICANN 's 19-member board, was praised by
some as a boon to companies that register and
sell the Internet labels.

"It's beautiful. It's a major step," said
Steinar Grotterod, of Active ISP, an Internet
service provider in Oslo, Norway
— B ut th e move wa s cr i t i c is e d b y so me -

including members of the ICANN

guidelines for the number of new
names to be introduced or how they
will be phased into use.

Gay rights supporters
want better Census

WASHINGTON - They could have called
themselves "roommates" or "boarders." Even
"otjier non-relative" would have been appro-
priate.

Instead, on* his Census 200&-f<<rm, Ronald
Nelson checked off the box next to the words
he felt best symbolized his long-standing and
committed relationship with the man he's lived
with the last five years - "unmarried partner."
. Gay and lesbian rights groups encouraged
other couples to do the same this year, hoping
it would provide the most comprehensive sta-
tistical look ever at the size of America's same-
s c x- c ou p l c pop u l a tion. Th e fir s t C e nsus

Bureau results are scheduled to be
released early next year.
Gay groups believe homosexuals
should volunteer this information,
which technically can only be inferred
from the responses to the "unmarried partner"
box on the Census form. The government does
not directly ask people their sexual prefer-
ences.

"In the same way that the government
wants to know how many, say, Samoans, there
are in the United States, they need to know
there is a gay and lesbian population," said
Nelson, who lives in the nation's capital. "We
don't have little pink triangles near our names
in the telephone book, and this is a way to get
some hard numbers."

Because no question on the Census form
specifically asks about sexuality, there is no
official count of the number of homosexuals in
America. Approximately 150,000 households
included same-sex unmarried partners in 1990,
the first year the Census forms contained that

Reagan's condition
deteriorating

WASHINGTON - Former President
Ronald Reagan's daughter Maureen says her
father is doing as well as someone with
Alzheimer's disease can, but that the disease
"just gets worse every day."

"He makes it ve^y easy for us," Maureen
Reagan said Sunday on CNN's "Late
Edition." "He goes for walks and does all the
things that we encourage him to do.

"But the disease just gets worse every day.
And it is just that it never gets better. So ...
when I say (his condition is) not so good,
Alzheimer's families know what I'm talking
about."

DONORS: Corporations help pay for political party
conventions, say motive is to advance democracy

By Jonathan D. Salant

The Associated Press

WASHINGTON - From AT&T
to General Motors, several compa-
nies hoping to save their federal
subsidies from budget cuts are
helping to pay for cocktail recep-
tions, posh dinners and other glitz

at both political parties' conven-
tions.

Some of the donors have anted
up as much as $1 million each to
the Republican and Democjatic

the entertainment and transporta-
tion at the quadrennial events.

The donations allow them to sow

good will among the federal, state

the GOP event in Philadelphia
later this month and the
Democrats' bash in Los Angeles in
August.

The companies' good deeds will
not go unnoticed. Their names will
be proudly displayed as "primary

San Francisco's companies
under real estate squeeze

SPACE: Rates of vacancy
near 1 percent; mergers,
closures free some spots

The Associated Press

SAN FRANCISCO - In San
Francisco, where commercial real
estate vacancy rates hover around I
percent, scanning the papers to see
which dot-coms have been the latest
to go out of business can help start-up
companies find a place to call home. ,

And following the Nasdaq com-
posite index's dive in April, a number
of dot-coms have gone under or
decided to downsize, increasing the
amount of vacant commercial spaces
in the past few months.

One commercial real estate bro-
kerage firm has kept possible tenants
abreast of potential availabilities by
sending out a list of office spaces that
could open up through mergers or
consolidation, the San Francisco
Examiner reported.

Space is becoming
available with many
companies merging.

More space is also becoming avail-
able with many companies downsiz-
ing, merging or consolidating.

Some companies had leased more
space than they needed to accommo-
date future growth, but with many
opting to stay the size they are or even

to shriftk, they are reconsidering that
practice.

For those that have leased more
space than they need, some say sub-
leasing is the answer.

Often landlords prefer to rent to a
single tenant, so companies must
lease more space than they can use.
They can, in turn, rent out what they
do not use. ...

What landlords cati get

for commercial space

doubled in the last year.

Although some brokers say they
have seen their supply of available
spaces double or triple since a year
ago, the demand still exceeds the sup-
ply - about a I percent vacancy rate.

"With that low vacancy rate, there
aren't many winners," said Mark
Walker, president of Walker Pacific
Commercial Real Estate Services in
San Francisco. "There is this illusion
that brokers are making all kinds of
money, but if you're a store and you
have three tubes of toothpaste and
100 customers, you're not making
much money."

Brokers say fewer people are com-
peting for the spaces, and some com-
panies have even backed out of leases.
That has not posed much of a prob-
lem, as the amount that landlords can
get for commercial space has
increased considerably in the last
year. It doubled from about $45 a
square foot to about S90 a square
foot.

scheduling and food coupons for
restaurant employees, said
Patricia Eastman, executive direc-
tor of ASUCLA.

In addition to a greater market-
ing campaign, Eastman said
bonuses for referring other stu-
dents for employment, early
access to textbooks and addition-
al employee discounts are some
features the task force is consider-
ing.

Despite the benefits of work-
ing for ASUCLA. some student
employees like Saul Villcda, a sec-
ond-year biology student, said
they only plan to work there a few
months until they find another
job.

"TKere's so many belter jobs I
could get," said Villeda, who
started working in the UCLA
Store stock room three weeks
ago. "I want to find something
related to the medical profession,
for my post-graduate studies."

Villeda said he enjoys working
at the store, but feels it does not
otTer the experience he needs for a
future career.

But according to ASUCLA
officials, many of its positions
offer managerial training and
experiences comparable to those
found off campus.

"What many people don't real-
ize is that the vast majority of our
students are at some supervisor
level, where they arc gaining valu-
able supervisor experience,"

Williams said.

The task force is expected to
propose new benefits to the asso-
ciation's executive management
group by the end of the summer,
Eastman said. . *"

Meanwhile, ASUCLA restau-
rants have enough workers
because fewer are needed during
the summer, Williams said. But he
remains concerned about filling
student positions for fall quarter.

"For the summer we're in pret-
ty good shape, but during the
school year we'd like 100 more,"
he said.

. According to Williams, cam-
^T restaurants sucti as the '
Bombshelter and Northern
Lights had roughly 100 vacant
student positions during spring
quarter.

As in the past, these vacancies
were eventually filled by workers
of an independent employment
agency. v, i "". '

Hiring non-student workers
costs the association more money
due to fees paid out to the agency
in addition to paying employee
wages, Williams said.

The UCLA Store was also
short-staffed during the spring
and was forced to hire outside
help for student positions for the
first time in its history, Eastman
said.

"Spring is always a difficult
lime to staff with students," she
said, explaining students are more
focused on their studies by then.

"As the end of the school year
approaches, academic demands
are more significant," she said.

GRANTS

would set unchanging GPA standards,
not based on state funding.

But the legislation comes with a sub-
stantial price tag, and the governor and
the bill's supporters are at odds about
the long-term financial impact of one of
the bill's major provisions, the "Cal
Grant Guarantee Program."

The State Department of Finance
estimates predict the cost of the grant
guarantee program will top $2 billion
each year by the fourth year, but sup-
porters say that number is act,ually
around $321 million.

Proponents of expanding the Cal
Grant program are also asking for
more money following the state Student
Aid Commission's July 10 report of a 41
percent increase in the number of new
Cal Grant awards for 2000-20Q1.

Cathy Staples, Cal Grant coordina-
tor and a senior analyst at the UCLA
Office of Financial Aid, said while the
number of UCLA students receiving
Cal Grants next year is not known -
since students have not yet released
financial aid information to the univer-
sity - she is anticipating an upward
trend in the number of grants awarded.

"I'm hoping that we see a large per-
centage increase as the state projected,"
Staples ..aid.

In a statement, the CSAC attributes
the statewide spike in new grants to
increased budget allocations for the
program. This year, Cal Grant funding
inched closer to the state-mandated
goal of providing grants to 25 percent
of eligible applicants.

"This is the first year we have even

come close to the statutory budget 2S
percent number," s^ id Steve Arena, a
CSAC spokesman.

"If you can never reach that figure,
and if it's a moving target, you get con-
cerned that you are going to get further
behind if the (applicant) pool mush-
rooms," he added.

While Arena acknowledged that
state budget provisions for the Cal
Grant program show a commitment by
the governor and state legislature to
help some of California's poorest stu-
dents with their higher education costs,
he said more steps need to be taken
since "Tidal Wave II looms on the hori-
zon. " ___-_—_^— ^^ . .:—- -r-'-^^T-^^-*— ^

Ortiz said the funds.Gov. Davis pro-
vided in his current state budget is just a
drop in the bucket compared to the real
financial commitment it will take to
achieve the 100 percent goal her legisla-
tion would mandate.

"The governor sees the 25 percent
number as a ceiling, we see it as a Hoor,"
Ortiz said. "It still does not begin to
address the huge need." ■:-■ ;V' ■■■■

The governor has until the end of the
month to take action on the bill, but
even in the event of the veto, there is a
chance the Cal Grant Guarantee could
be enacted by a rare veto override,
which takes a two-thirds vote of both
houses of the legislature.

Ortiz would not comment specifical-
ly on the chances of a veto override
before Davis has taken action on the
bill, but said SB 1644 passed the State
Assembly and the Senate by unanimous
votes.

From page 3

Small declined to be inter-
viewed, but documents she wrote
indicate she became alarmed as
Parsky and Wilshire pushed for
what she saw as abrupt, major
changes in the fund's successful
asset n, iX and its performance
benchmarks. . ,. ,

Last year, a commission chaired
by Parsky set up to oversee the
treasurer's office hired Wilshire
Associates with a $97,000 consult-
- ing contract. Parsky said Wilshire •
competed to win the contract.

In July 1999, a few weeks after
Tito and other Wilshire executives
and their wives donated a com-
bined $10,000 to Bush's campaign,
the regents authorized hiring con-
sultants to analyze the portfolio's
mix of investments.

Records show Parsky's com-
mission gave a no-bid, $250,000
contract to Wilshire. Meeting min-
utes show Parsky saying no other
bids were solicited because the new
contract was seen as an extension
of the first.

By early this year, according to
documents and sources, Parsky
and Wilshire consultants said
UC's pension fund should be over-
hauled because its mix of invest-
ments was too risky.

In March, regents adopted
Wilshire's recommendations -
changing the mix, hiring money
managers to run about 30 percent
of the portfolio and hiring a gener-
al consultant.

more sessions with fewer stu-
dents," he said. "Or they could

: hire more counselors to decrease

- the size of the groups."

Whether or not they enjoyed
everything about orientation,
most students agreed the experi-
ence helped them meet students
they would never have met in high
school.

Elliott said that during orienta-
tion, she met people from ail over

_the West Coast with a variety of
backgrounds, unlike during high
school.

CONVENTION

From page 6

To help stu-
dents meet peo-
ple and foster
school spirit, the
orientation
counselors orga-
nize Carpe
Noctem, a night
scavenger hunt,
and Cabaret
Night.

Though many .<v
students take part in these activi-
ties, others choose to participate in
off-campus activities instead.

Emily Richards, a third-year
pol^ical science student who

"The students work
as a team and
make friends."

Brendan Rahcr

Orientation Counselor

dents go out
instead of join-
ing the sched-
uled activities, a
marked differ-
ence from her
own experience.
"They're
clubbing or at a
water polo
party," she said.
■^ '"I think they're

all about meeting other people

right now."

Davis said that although she did

not know specific information

about Carpe Noctem, attendance
works at the Sproul front desk, at Cabaret, a variety show put on
noticed that these days, more stu- by the counselors, has declined.

Just as orientation can create
new friendships through its activi-
ties, it can often mean breaking
old lies for some students.

The parent-son/daughter rela-
tionship is underestimated,"
Raher said. "We have parents fol-
low us on tour because this is the
first time their children have been
away from them."

Raher emphasized that during
orientation, some counselors try
to get students to realize that going
to college should be their own
decision, not their parents'.

"It's hard for students to get out
of that," he said. "A majority are
still nervous about leaving their
home situation."

convention programs and on the lit-
erature and placards on display at
the events whaj^ executives can hob-
nob with Wasmngton's elite.

The companies say their motive is
simply to_ advance democracy and
help defray the cost of staging the
massive events.

"We support the democratic
process," said>- Lockheed Martin
spokesman James Fetig.

Others locked in the battle to cut
what they see as wasteful federal
subsidies to wealthy companies - the
critics call it "corporate welfare" -
suspect another motive.

"One has got to be a moron and
extremely naive to believe that the
wealthy corporations are contribut-

ing hundreds of millions of dollars
just for the fun of it," said Rep.
Bernard Sanders, an independent
from Vermont who has led the battle
against the subsidies.

The Democratic and Republican
parties each get $13.5 million in tax
dollars to pay for their conventions.

But the government allows corpo-
rations, unions and individuals to
donate unlimited amounts - and get
a tax deduction - to convention host
committees.

Eight of the 15 companies that
have donated to both conventions'
host committees benefit from the
federal programs that some lawmak-
ers are trying to kill. They also have
substantial other business pending
with the government, ranging from
contracts to regulatory issues.

GM and DaimlerChrysler have
made sizable donations at a time

when they are fighting efforts to trim
programs that fund their research
and development. ■ : ^ f *

Last month, the House voted 214-
211 ^to cut $126.5 million, or about
half the budget, from the
Partnership for a New Generation
of Vehicles, a joint venture between
the government and the automakers
to develop a car that gets 80 miles
per gallon. The Senate has not decid-
ed yet whether to go along with the
legislation.

GM, which has received $8.7 mil-
lion under the program, contributed
more than $1 million to each con-
vention's host committee.
DaimlerChrysler, which has gotten
$19.7 million, is supporting each to
the tune of $250,000.

Both car companies also have
received millions of dollars under
the Commerce Department's

Advanced Technology Program,
which uses federal and private dol-
lars to develop new products and is
another target of the budget cutters.

GM donated 400 cars to each
convention. "We consider that a
marketing opportunity, making our
vehicles available to an important
group of people," said spokesman
William Noack.

Several other beneficiaries of the
Commerce program also are big
givers to bOih conventions, includ-
ing communications giants AT&T,
which has given $1 million to both
conventions, and Verizon Wireless,
the former Bell Atlantic, which has
contributed $1 million for
Philadelphia and $100,000 for Los
Angeles.

Another target of the corporate
subsidy cutters is the Overseas
Private Investment Corporation,

which provides loans and insurance
for companies doing business in
developing countries. One OPIC
customer is McDonald's, which has
contributed $50,000 to the
Philadelphia convention and
$25,000 for Los Angeles.

Another is insurance giant
American International Group,
which gave $500,000 for
Philadelphia. AIG and a subsidiary,
SunAmerica, also gave $1 million
each for Los Angeles.

Keith Ashdown, a spokesman for
Taxpayers for Common Sense, an
advocacy group that supports cut-
ting corporate subsidies, worries
about the effect of such donations.

"It is no secret that money that
goes to grease the wheels of these
political conventions makes it diffi-
cult to stop the corporate welfare
machine," Ashdown said.

SUMMIT

From page 5

Asked about the Israeli minis-
ters' comment, Lockharl said:
■'I'm not going to get into handi-
capping the comments of those
who aren't here"

Also, on July 15 diplomatic
sources said Barak telephoned
Vice President Al Gore and
Republican Gov. George W.
Bush of Texas, the likely candi-
dates to succeed Clinton in
January.

- "Governor Bush said it was a
friendly, brief call and that Prime
Minister Barak let him know
they were working hard but had
reached no breakthrough at that
point," campaign spokeswoman
Mindy Tucker said Sunday. A
spokesman for the Gore cam-

paign did not immediately return
calls Sunday. __

Fn addition to the formal nego-
tiating teams secluded at Camp
David, Israeli, Palestinian and
D.S. delegations staying at near-
by Emmitsburg, Md., are talking
about secondary issues. The
Americans met separately with
both sides and then all three dele-
gates talked Sunday morning
before breaking up into small
groups, Lockhart said.

Since the three leaders first sat
down together on Tuesday,
Clinton has shuttled between the
two sides in talks described as
contentious and difficult.

Summit participants have
agreed to disclose nothing of the
substance of the negotiations.
U.S. olTicials briefing reporters
have repeatedly used words like
"grappling" and "struggling" to

characterize the efforts. At one
point, Lockhart described the
issues as "intractable."

Clinton is set to leave
Wednesday for a summit in
Japan of the world's industrial
powers and Russia, and U.S. otTi-
cials have said that should not be
considered a deadline for wrap-
ping up the peace talks.

"It is still our desire to see an
agreement ... before the presi-
dent leaves for Tokyo," White
House spokesman P.J. Crowley
told reporters on Saturday.

Barak left home July 10 amid
a political crisis triggered by the
collapse of his governing coali-
tion. Israeli spokesman Gadi
Baltiansky told Israel radio that it
would be difficult for the prime
minister to remain away from
Israel for much more than a total
of two weeks.

he would announce his running mate
decision before or during the party
convention in Philadelphia starting
July 31. -—— —

Vice President AI Gore, his
Democratic opponent, repeated his
belief on NBC's "Meet The Press" that
Bush would take away a woman's right
to choose whether to get an abortion.

"I will protect a woman's right to
choose. Governor Bush has sworn to
take away a woman's right to choose,"
Gore said. "He has told (evangelists)

Jerry Falwell and Pat Robertson that
he will make appointments that will be
very pleasing to them. That's not difTh
cult to interpret."

Gore said he opposes parental noti-
fication, which would require
teenagers to get a parent or guardian's
permission before getting an abortion.

The Democrat brushed aside ques-
tions about whether consumer advo*-
cate Ralph Nader, nominee of the
Green Party, is cutting into his sup-
port, saying voters eventually will want
to pick "between two stark choices" -
Gore or Bush.

"I think in the final analysis, it is
likely that most people will see this as a

two-person contest and cast their vote
on that," Gore said. Recent polls have
suggested Nader could hurt Gore in
important states like Michigan and
Pennsylvania.

Nader said Sunday on CBS' "Face
the Nation" that he was not concerned
what effect he mij^t have on other
candidates.

» "I wouldn't be running if I were
worried about taking votes away from
Al Gore or George W. Bush," he said.
"Nobody is entitled to votes. They
have to earn them."

On other issues:

• Republican Gov. George Ryan
made a wise decision in calling for a

moratorium after errors were found in
that state.

• On Social Security, Gore said he
would encourage people to invest
retirement savings in the stock market
in addition to a core Social Security
fund that lawmakers could not touch.
Bush said people should have the
option to invest their Social Security
funds in the stock market.

* Bush said he would expand
research on an anti-ballistic missile sys-
tem. Gore was more cautious, saying
the decision was still President
Clinton's, but that, "It's only responsi-
ble to investigate whether or not it's
possible."

* Responding to criticism that his
administration mishandled S33 mil-
lion in federal school lunch money.
Bush said that, in fact, Texas was
"higher than the national average^ in
signing up poor children for subsi-
dized meals.

• Gore defended his administra-
tion's 1996 campaign funo-raising tac-
tics, saying he still believes a California
event he attended at a Buddhist temple
was not a fund-raiser "There was no
request for funds. No money changed
hands," he said. Gore has denied
knowing anything about the $60,000
in illegal donations that followed his
appearance at the temple.

Take the plots of

Hollywood is known to many
as "the dream factory." It is a
place where the impossible
--becomes possible, where larger-than-
life is manldatory, and where Kevin

Costner inex-
plicably still has

a job. Counting

from "Mission:

Impossible 2",

Hollywood is

set to release

134 movies this

summer. Many

will suck, most

will suck even

worse, but that

is no reason why

you can't get in

on the action.

Were you to see all of those

movies, even at the matinee price, it
would set you back $670. Hollywood
knows that only a professional pro-
ducer would be stupid enough to
spend that kind of money on movies
this bad. This means that in a market
where quantity is favorable over
quality, many craptacular films will
see the light of day, even though they
should be kept in a vault at the
Centers for Disease Control and
Prevention with the last strain of
smallpox.

So why shouldn't you write one
