C 90 hrm Allocations Time, Monel By PATRICK TYLER Gamecock News Edtor The Student Allocations Commission (SAC) earmarked more than $330,000 this week to 20 student organizations and faces the strong possibility of running out of money before getting to all of the 30 bud get requests for next year. After meeting for a total of 14 hours Monday and Wednesday, the commission had $18,507 left and possible requests tota ling $40,700. About $9,000 of those requests will be coming from groups who have not as yet been chartered and there fore cannot request funds. However, the student-faculty committee that charters student groups was supposed to have met last Friday to review the applications of the groups wishing to be chartered. Those groups include the USC Cheer leaders who are asking for $7,000, the Gay Liberation Association asking for $1,300 and the Wrestling Club. Not enough committee member showed up at the Friday session, however, to have a quorum and therefore the group could not take any action. The committee is slated to meet again this. Friday to look over the chartering requests. Scott Derks, chairman of SAC, said the commission would have to consider the groups request in the fall, if they are chartered, unless Counseling Avail For Rape Victims By AARON MEDLOCK Gamececk Staff Writer A Women's Center offering rape crisis support, ling, abortion information, consciousness raisinj feminist library will have their opening Saturday, through 7 p.m. Located at 1106 Hagood Avenue, the center has sc day hours of 5 P.

The other $32,000 in requests tlhat the commission has not yet considered comes from sports clubs. Earlier in the month the commission passed a resolution that they would not fund any sport group that, in intercoligiate compitition, plays teams that are funded by their athletic depart ments. The commission has held off funding the Soccer Club, the Sailing Club, the Women's Intercollegiate Athletic Association and the Rugby Club because some of these groups play other teams funded by athle tic departments. The problem will be resolved when the Faculty Athletic Committee of the Faculty Senate makes a recommendation to the Board of Trustees as to how the Athletic Department should treat these sports clubs. If the USC Cheerleaders are char tered and come to the SAC with their bud get request it will mean that the Athletic Department will no longer have that $7,500 expenditure. Of the groups that were funded this week, the University Union received the largest share of the $400,000 in student activity funds that come from the $13.50 that each student pays per year as a part of the $285 university fee.
