News briefs Rogers, dr By Dean Foster Former USC running back and Heisman Trophy winner George Rogers has told federal investigators he purchased more than $10,000 worth of corainp Hiirino his rookie year with the New Orleans Saints, a New Orleans newspaper reported Thursday. The 1981 Rookie of the Year, along with more than a dozen of his teammates, said they bought drugs from former Saints player Mike Strachan and convicted cocaine dealer Joselyn Bruno, The Times Picayune/The States-Item reported in a copyrighted story. According to sources, criminal charges probably would not be filed against any current or former member of the Saints except for Strachan, the nev/spaper ? reported. Rogers was scheduled to speak at the Richard Bell Football Camp this past Friday, but he did not appear. USC football staff members were not surprised; according to The Columbia Record, a few parents of campers were concerned about "a drug dealer coming to the camp." Anonymous sources U.. 4L 4uuLeu uy uie newspaper said Rogers paid for cocaine with personal checks on several occasions. Investigators reportedly reviewed checks for thousands of dollars that Rogers made out to Bruno and Strachan. The investigation of Saints players stems from a copyrighted story in the June 14 Sports Illustrated by luimer i\ew wrieans lineman Don Reese, who said many players snorted cocaine before, during and after regular season games. n THE USC board of trustees will hold a telephone meeting at 3 p.m. today to vote on a new affiliation agreement between the University of South Carolina Medical School and the i P "T I $1.01 Any wh I with the pi any size si ii I 5.50 Am*# ?JLp> mi i y nc with the Pi | any size s< 1 749 Saluda Ave. 1 In 5 Points ugs linked Richland Memorial Hospital.

TS will be able to watch this year's third lunar eclipse July 6, according to a USC astronomy professor. A lunar eclipse occurs when a full moon disappears into the earth's shadow. The lunar eclipse will be visible from 1:33 a.m. to 4:24 a.m., professor John Safko said. Safko explained that though the event will continue until 5:29 a.m., area residents will not be able to see it because the moon will be close to the horizon at daybreak. The total eclipse will occur at2:38a.m. The USC Melton Memorial Observatory on Greene Street will be open from 9:30 p.m.. July 5 to 3 a.m. July 6 for those who want to examine the eclipse closely. People in the Midwest and West regions of the United States will be able to see the lunar eclipse best, Safko said. "This eclipse will be unusual because it will be one of the longest, and it will be the third this year. Two a year is normal," Safko said. | \ Don't forg y 256$ Sal / June KINKO'S SUMMER 8-7 M-Th 8-6 FRI. JO^SAT SP )OFF I ole sub i urchase of oft drink!

About 17 Japanese students will take part in Summer Study in America, a month-long program under the auspices of the program for internationals. 1 Magaret Haggstrom, director of Summer Study in America, said the Japanese students will receive intensive training in oral communication. About 40 Korean students were scheduled to participate in the same program, but governmental red tape delayed their departure from the country. Haggstrom said the Korean students are being rescheduled for participation next summer. Summer Study iii America begins July 27 and continues until Aug. 21. Field trips are also planned. The students will live on campus for the first three weeks of their stay, living with a Columbia family the last week.

Answerint home to foreigners ^ "It's hard to get the word out," she said. "Many people don't know about the program." Haggstrom said the Columbia Council for Internationals helps USC encourage Columbians to become host families. Mary Dannerbeck, the council's host family chairman, said the purpose of the council is "to serve as a friend to international students." She said the host family adopts a student, inviting him to dinner and taking him shopping or to the beach. They also celebrate holidays and birthdays with the student. Dannerbeck said the host families bridge the cultural gap for the students and introduce them to an American environment. Chuck and Bonnie Chandler have been a host family since 1968 and have made friends with students from many corners of the world. The students they have met speak fairly good English, despite problems in | mastering American slang. "We've tasted food from all over the world!" Mrs. Chandler said. She asks each student to cook a meal from his or her homeland. "It gives us a chance to learn about other cultures without traveling," she said.
