The two committees will next review and evaluate the applications. "Hopefully our committee will have it worked down to five or seven applicants by mid March," said Ferry Ashley, journalism professor and chairman of the dean's search committee. Five to seven candidates for the dean's post and two or three each for the professor positions will be invited to the university for interviews. In addition, the applicants for professor will be observed leading a class at USC. The professors' search committee will then submit recommendations to Scroggins. The dean's search committee will cut to three or four top candidates for the dean's position. They will probably be invited back for more extensive talks, Ashely said.

"Over the Christmas holidays, I was in Hollywood with my family. It was by chance that we got tickets for the show," said Curl, a theater and speech major. After standing in line to get tickets, Curl and her family were seated in the studio audience. That was when she heard those fateful words: "Toni Curl, come on down, you're the next contestant on "The Price Is Right.'" i "I guess I should have been more enthusiastic when I heard my name. 1 was sitting in the front row so 1 didn't run down the disle." I didn't kiss Bob Barker or jump all over him," Curl said. Curl and her fellow contestants were shown a diamond watch to bid on and Curl, to her surprise, priced the watch the closest. "The watch retailed for S350 and I think bid $400 for it," Curl said. ^SL With one prize under her belt, Curl joined Bob Barker [ ; on stage to try for bigger prizes, but wasn't very optimistic j 1 about her chances. j 1 "Most of the products I had to bid on in my game, 1 j wouldn't go out shopping for. I was pretty clueless when it !" j came to bidding on a gallon of Latex paint," Curl said. ! ] The episode featuring Curl will air at 11 a.m. Thursday, ! but Curl won't be able to watch it.
