But Athletic Director Jim Carlen described the department's
financial situation as "very tight" and suggested a $4
increase in student activity fees to maintain the school's
athletic programs.
"We've reached a saturation point," Carlen said, and there
are "no other places to get revenue from. Students are my
first concern," he said, but additional revenue is needed from
them.
He said he feels $4 is not an unreasonable request,

The USC administration opposes the increase, said Chip
Gray, a university spokesman.
The athletic department will be reimbursed $500,000 when
bond sales are approved by the state Budget and Control
Board. Construction will not begin until the bonds are issued.
The bond sale date will be determined by the Budget and
Control Board and the Joint Bond Committee of the
Legislature. Committee member Jerry Beasley said bonds
cannot be sold until tne marKet comes aown 10 / percent.

The decline of U.S. power and the threat it poses to international
peace was the topic of a debate sponsored by the
Clariosophic Society Tuesday night.
Drs. Donald Weatherbee and Robert Jordan of the
Department of Government and International Studies
participated in the debate.

power is the greatest threat to international order. Jordar
argued that U.S. power is not declining, but that th(
definition of power is changing.
Weatherbee said it is ironic that the topic even demand!
consideration since a decline in power already exists.
Weatherbee defined power as "the capability of the Unite<
States to influence the outcome of international events in thi
direction desired by the United States.
He said dii> integration of U.S. power is illustrated by ai
army unable to fulfill its duties, the deteriorating economi*
situation, and the "crisis of confidence" among U.S. allies.
The inequality of world power is destabalizing the in
ternational environment, Weatherbee said.
He said the United States must protect its values and th
balance of power, which he defined as a system which allow
nations to minimize their insecurities.
Jordan argued that the traditional assessment of power
which is measured by the size of armies and the number c
weapons,is no longer true. Quoting Secretary of State Ec
mund Muskie, Jordan said there is "a new dimension c
natural security" which includes the environment, natur?
resources and ooDulation.
There are no dominant power centers as was the case wit
the United States following World War II, Jordan said. A

the 1982 season if construction begins by March 1,1981.
When the expansion is finished, the stadium will sea'
79 oon with 5.000 additional seats for students. Carlen saic
after the expansion, the athletic department will receive
$300,000 a year from the one dollar tax on each seat.
But Carlen said without the increase, he could not run th<
program effectively because of inflation and other expenses
Carlen wants the fee increase to be implemented by Januar
1981.
There might be a delay if the issue is not considered at th
Student-Trustee Liaison Committee meeting today, Gra
said.
Tho nthwin rimvirtmpnt has a million reserve fund, bi
$1 million is needed to pay for a new indoor athletic facilil
and $500,000 will be used for planning the stadium expansio
The remainder is not enough to fund both men's
and women's non-revenue sports, Carlen said. No ne
programs are planned, he said, because he wants to be ab
to fund the present programs fairly.
The athletic department has several sources of incom
including football revenue, about $500,000 a year, Gamecw
Club contributions, 1.5 million a year, student fees, mo
