Profess By Jill Hancock Copy Desk Chtof It's not every day that a USC professor gets a call from the president of the United States asking him to serve as U.S. ambassador to a foreign country. But that's just what happened last Thursday to Dr. Richard L. Walker, director of USC's Institute of International Studies, when President Ronald Reagan appointed him ambassador to South Korea. "What he (the president) said is engraved forever in my mind," Walker said. THE CALL came while Walker and his wife were celebrating their 36th V |g| * / Jlm ' hO s S !m New Student Government I Student Government inaugur address, Bo swell promised to the past administration while a (Photo by Jose Panganiban) Student Senat ^S^BSUKVM mittee's budget campus organize Committee chaii Las 1 yea r?87 ?

Walker said the call was "quite unexpected" because he had not actively campaigned for the job. He said he's just beginning to learn how many people in public and academic life were involved in nimhintr for his nomination. Among those people were Sen. Strom Thurmond, R-S.C., who contacted Walker about four months ago to ask him for a resume. Since then Lee Atwater, a former graduate student under Walker and now deputy director of political affairs for President Reagan, has been involved y-'-'y.

Also involved were Harry Dent, Columbia attorney and a former aide in the Nixon administration, and Sen. Ernest. F. Hollings, D-S.C., among others. WALKER'S APPOINTMENT must now be approved by the U.S. Senate and then by the South Korean government. Walker said he sees the job of ambassador as "one of intercultural understanding." That's something Walker said he's devoted his life to. Another quality that Walker said will help him in his job is his emphases on the family and the "periysl (JSC Pi idenl V . \ By John St?H One female USC sti former student ident year-old Columbia m up as the man who al . \ the Shandon area la: Columbia City Police. * Investigator Harold Lee Porterfield of 1] arrested Monday ?-. charges, was identif was raped last Wedn woman who was rape< Acting Police Chi officers arrested Pc p.m. Monday alleged a house in the 1100 blc Wilbur said Porterfiel jewelry reported housebreaking on l>e> morning.
