i. More l?tt?i i? .'Mm.',,, Turn Spur into non-alcohol bar Tn thn ivlit'*" As you arc already aware, the present drinking age is 20 and in September will be raised to 21. ^0 This new law will all but cut off the weekend social life of many of the students at USC. The bars provide students with a place for socializing. Recently, proposals have been drawn to rcoccupy the Golden Spur, once an on-campus bar. These new proposals include office space for various staff members, storage space for miscellaneous equipment and a large meeting space for seminars, lectures and clubs. 1 would like to add to this list and propose that the Golden Spur be made into a 9* non-alcoholic bar. This "new Spur" would serve as a place for underage students to relax, meet friends and dance. A dance floor, small arcade, wide-screen TV and lounge area would make the bar attractive to everyone. Live bands could be arranged for the weekends with only a minimal admission charge.

I ask that this proposal be seriously considered by the planning committee and, if found valid, then voted upon. 1 feel that the committee cannot go wrong by passing this bill because close to two-thirds of the university's student body will be underage after this upcoming September.

Bellina Business Freshman U.S. should not have Star Wars To the editor: Using the satellite to shield our continent sounds like an appealing concept at first; on second thought, however, it might not be a great idea at all. First, the system does not constitute 100 percent safe proof, yet it leaves us an unrealistic, false sense of security. Such a false impression might lead us into disaster. Second, creating such a system certainly will make our opponents anxious to modernize their arsenals to be more efficient.

We should have concentrated our efforts to alleviate such problems, rather than something that ocnctus tnc rich more than the poor. It benefits the rich because it will only pacify people, relieve our anxieties of annihilation, with a placebo effect far from the reality. Poor people do not worry about such problems as much as rich people do. We lead our children into a t false sense of security and teach them to be selfishly isolated from the rest of the world. They unrcalistically think that only America is "immune" from a nuclear explosion that the rest of the world is facing. Such isolation is detrimental to human aspirations.

Wc have to learn and show th.-u the world now is too civilized to conquer by force and violence. It is, rather, shifting toward economic competitions. We should use our energy toward such a trend. Finally, America should find it is repugnant to build a system that only protects itself and isolates it from the rest of the world. It is totally against the Christian principle. We should be involved with the world in an equal footing. Mark Lc Undeclared major PPntf nr f rkifir* El CCUT HttUY Sg PIZZA 1 256-0301 I 107 Blossom Street 3d pizza delivered ; to your door!
