Magazine
Solicitation
Prevented
By DAVID CORVETTE
New* Editor
Girls are being stopped by
university police for
soliciting magazines subscriptions
on campus
& without a permit. They use
1 high-pressure sales tactics
laden with sexual innuendos,
their customers say.
The girls, in their 20s were
described as "gorgeous,
glamorous" and hard to
refuse. Residents in
LaBorde and Preston have
been hit, but apparently the
eirls are not limiting their
soliciting just to men's
L. ^ dorms, as several residents
of Baker ? a girls dorm ?
testify.
Joe Burch, a USC senior,
paid one of the girls $33 for a
two-year subscription to Hi
Fidelity magazine. Burch
said the girl who approached
him Monday night at his
LaBorde dorm room told
him, "We get more points if
you give us cash."
Burch and others approached
by the girls said
the sales pitch begins with a
" A 41 A.
f request uiai imu uiimuiiici
"vote for me." They then
explain they are selling the
magazines to win a trip to
' f Europe; each sale earns
them a certain amount of
points. When they reach
^ 20,000 points, it's off to
Europe, they say.
I Burch said the girl who

used sex appeal to make the
sale. "She said, 'You mind if
I sit on your bed?' While
talking to me, she kept
j getting closer and closer.
Soon she was almost in my
lap.

me to sign me cnecic, sne
