'Soldiers on Sunday.' some soldiers don't even bother to come to the I S'C campus these daYs. As one (.1. explained the recent weekend absence of soldiers. 'hell. personally. I got sick of being treated like shit. All I wanted to do was talk to some people with the same head. hut everybody treated me like a leper. Now all I do when I come into town is get a room and get loaded." When asked it their politically oriented group could do anything for the soldiers. SMC member Karen Sundstrom said. "I really don't know of any organized program we offer G..'s. There have been ef'forts at starting another col'ee house like the UFO. but lip until now they've been unsuccessful." B$enny Wynne. head of Young Americans for Freedom. was asked the same question. Wynne said. -as lar as I know. YAF has no organized activities. We do send cookies and reading material to soldiers overseaS. but' YAF <toesn't. to my knowledge have anything going for stateside G.I.'s. Wynne added. "I think it would be a good idea it we did have something to do for G.T.'s. If anyone has any time or ideas, I'd appreciate their calling me or getting in touch with YAF."

The lissell House. USC's s ident iinion building. presently has a policy prohibiting anyone who is not a student including G I -s. from entering the building unless he is the guest of a student. This includes use of the cafeteria. 1nacMk bar. game room and movie theatre. Lewis TIyler. director of' the I niversit y t 'nion. said "I can't say it there could he programs for %oldiers in t he Russell House. As it stands now. the rules prohibit anYone but students and their guests f'rom using the building. I can say this however. the building is very crowded right now. Be*ore we open it to soldiers. I would like to see students have adequate f*acilities." The Ioard of Governors. a body of advisors concerning the use of Itussell House. did consider looking into the matter of soldiers using I he building. On February 1 1. of this year. the Board passed a resolution urging the Executive Board 01 the Uiniversity Union to investigate the possibility of developing educational. cultural and recreational programs be tween USC and Ft. Jackson. As of now. lOeborah Wright. a member of the Board. knows of no further action on the resolution.

Ihere isn't a lot for a G.I. to do dIuiring his weekend in town. With the coming of spring. SMC does ponsor a 'Rally in the Valley" each Sunday and soldiers are welcome. But overall. the picture iS preltty bleak. Added to the problems of bad image. the soldiers face a financial problem In this year of whithered appropriations. no university organization can afford to expand its facilities for use of non -t guidents. \like Altman. an administrator ()I Russell f louse. said "It'll be pretv hard to let soldiers use USC facilities. ft you have a building that accomodates I.ImwN people. fhere's a certain amount of maintenence required. If you accomodate 2.4M0I people. you have twice the amount of main Iainance."* ft seems that all parties con cerned. soldiers. students. off and on campus organizations. USC administrators and even the clergy recognize the need for some sort of program aimed at helping soldiers occupy their time in olt hours. Traditional organizations like USO and Red Cross seem to have become obsolete for a good many oI today's ; I s. The burden is now upon those groups that soldiers most closely associate with. siuidents and their institutions. 'hether or not these institutions will be able to meet the challenge of taking care of the soldier's needs in the face of ever expanding student bodies and ever shrinking funds is an entirely different matter. Projects funded lDr. Nicholas P. .Mitchell. dean of th ('ollege of General Studies has announced the funding of two 'niversif V community service and continuing education projects tunder Title I of the Higher Education Act of 195. D)r. Francis X.
