A USC student rescued a puppy from three
young men who were beating it this weekend.
At about 9:30 p.m. Saturday, a young man, who
asked not to be identified, was walking along
Assembly Street when he said he heard a dog
whimpering.
In the park at Assembly and Greene streets, three
youths were dragging a small dog around and kicking
it, he said.
THE PUPPY, about 11 weeks old, was held by a
rope around its neck and a flannel shirt. One sleeve
held the puppy's front paws together; the other tied
its rear paws. The rest of the shirt was used to drag
it around the park, the student said.
"I got very upset. I'm a big animal lover," he
said. "I went over and told them to stop. They said

USC's medical school is making plans to work
with a Texas medical school on a research project
to determine the cause of rheumatic diseases.
Late last week, Dr. Morris Ziff, world-renowned
rheumatologist and director of Harold C. Simmons
Arthritis Research Center at the University of
Texas Southwestern Medical School, announced
nlans for the oroiect.
A $7.5 million donation for research to the arthritis
center started the school looking for a partner
in the project. After visiting the lab at USC's
department of microbiology and immunology, Ziff
said, "I know this is the place that has the knowhow."

$100, and after bartering for a while he said he gave
them $30 and took the puppy.
"They took the rope off and left. I untied the
shirt and picked him up. He was shaking and
quivering and whimpering," the student said.
HE SAID he carried the puppy to a bench in
front of the South Carolina Bookstore and sat with
him and petted him until he stopped shaking and
whimpering. Then he took him home.
