Funding bi asbestos i ' on USC c< BY SHERRI MAKSIM Staff writer Completion of asbestos removal on all USC campuses has been temporarily stopped while school officials wait for a funding bill to go through the state legislature. The bill would allocate USC ) funding to finish the projects, according to David Rinker, system vice president for facilities planning. USC is asking for $3.5 million this year to clean up the asbestos. If the funds are denied, the request will be increased to $7.5 million and resubmitted later to cover this year's and next year's work. Asbestos removal began this aiding wnii smancr projects tnat could be completed by USC without special state funds. ^ Asbestos was removed from the McBryde Quadrangle and the "tower's gameroom this semester.

The $14,000 needed for the Tower's project came from housing funds. Eight projects are still to be completed, five of which will be on the Columbia camous. Com pletion of the work is dependent on the availability of funding. On the Columbia campus, Columbia Hall, Williams-Brice Nursing Building, the Law Center, the Close section of the Business Administration building and the Blatt PE Center still need to be worked on, Rinker said. Three buildings on USC branch campuses are in need of asbestos removal.

The Garnet Spirit Club sponsored the first two pageants, but because of lack of interest, the club did not go through rclicensing, according to Michelle McManus, graduate assistant in the department of student life. Since then no organization has volunteered to sponsor the pageant. There have been several fraternities and sororities who have talked about sponsoring it, but none have taken action, said Bob Lane, the former director of the Miss USC pageant. "Hopefully one of them will pick it up. We're hoping to revive it next year."

Sen. Ler liss USC pai ested spons' pageant this fall, according to Valeric Trapp, Miss USC 1984. "I've had girls come to my room and leave notes," she said. A member of fi Kappa Phi tratcrnity also called saying they had discussed the possibility of sponsoring it in the future. Trapp said she was never informed there would not be a pageant in 1985. When she called student affairs to ask about it, she was told the university could not afford to hold the pageant. "They didn't tell me anything. I had started getting ready to give up my crown," she said. "Nobody mentioned it, which is sad. It was just dropped." The Miss USC pageant was an excellent program, Trapp said. It gave a girl a chance to meet people around the state and get involved in the university. Miss USC was also given a $500 scholarship. "I traveled more as Miss USC than as Miss Aiken.

Last year there were 22 contestants whereas most local pageants only have about eight, Trapp said. Miss USC 1983, Vicki Harrell, went on to become Miss South Carolina and Trapp placed in the ton ten in the Miss South Carolina pageant. "I was thinking about giving up my scholarship so there could be money for another pageant," Trapp said. She added if the pageant were held in spring, it would give the contestants more time to prepare and they would still have time to go on to the Miss South Carolina pageant, which is held in July. "I just keep telling people who are asking about it to keep in touch so we won't lose the interest," Trapp said. jarolin3?rT BH icurfflttlfil- mI ~ H : j jWmH JOSEPH GARNETTfn* Gamecock on violence egainst women 'n harkc m\/th MMVI1U MB y III )lent behavior oralization of women. arnography is the marketplace, and women are tie block.
