Lack of support for the Student
Summit Fund forced its
closing and caused Student
Government President Kelvin
Stroble to consider renlacino it
- I o -with
a new fund-raising project.
The fund, a student fund
raising organization started
under 1984-85 SG President
Glenn German, has not been pursued
by Stroble, although Stroble
is involved in similar efforts.
The Student Summit Fund was
named and modeled after the
University Summit Fund, a fundraising
organization that attained
its $35 million goal last year and
disbanded.
?
While Stroble admitted he has
not made the student fund a
? priority this year because of the
9 disbanding of the university
fund, he said a SG committee is
presently looking into student
giving and considering forming a
permanent organization similar
in purpose to the student fund.
"The students will decide how
much will be donated, if any, and
where it will go," Stroble said.
Student Government is trying
"to educate students on the imjgfr
portance of giving once they
become alumni," he said.

The Russell House Ballroom
was packed with a capacity crowd
last night for a ceremony to
0 honor the late Rev. Martin
Luther King Jr. that featured a
speech by his daughter, Yolanda
King.
"I am pleased to say that Jim
Crow is dead and gone, but J.
Crow, Esq., his sophisticated urban
cousin, is still wandering
around," said King in her speech,
"Living the Dream."
Throughout her speech she used
many of her father's quotes.

German said he hoped the
fund-raising by students would
never stop even though the
university fund stopped once its
goal was met.
The student fund was originally
set up to "vault USC to the
summit of higher education,"
and so students could "give the
university something substantive
in return for what it had given
us," according to German.
USC alumnus Bill Kotti
chaired the student fund committee,
which successfully raised
about $135,000 last year.

the Educational Foundation of
USC in the name of the student
body.
"I wanted it to be ongoing so
each class would have a chance to
give." German said.
German also said he never intended
the student fund to be a
"one time shot" because USC
"needs a constant source of
money since the state only supplies
50 percent of needed funds.
The rest of the money must come
from somewhere."

"Profits are so much more important

She said the work of her father

"The cause for which he died is

he died is still a dream. If we
choose only to honor his name,
then his dream is just a farce."
King also noted there were
many symbolic victories for the
cause of blacks in the 1980s.

"In 1983, we saw a black
woman who was Miss America.
We all know what happened
there, but when it was all said and
done, a black woman was still
Miss America. We saw for the
first time a black as a serious contender
for the presidency of the
United States."
The program also contained
speeches by local ministers and
campus leaders. Sen. Kay Patterson,
D-Richland, gave a speech
before King. He said he was glad
to see so many had come out to
honor King, but also said people
should not sit and wait for someone
to come and free them.

Blocked lot

protesting
BY CAM. DAWSON
Assistant new* editor
Drivers of cars parked in the
Russell House parking lot during
Wednesday's anti-abortion
march weren't allowed to
leave while the demonstrators
walked by.
Graduate student Katherine
Straught said she was made
late for work by the 10- to
15-minute holdup.
"It is inconsiderate to hold
people up that have places to
be. They can march on the
sidewalk," she said.
Kathleen Poole, an
organizer of the march, said
she was sorry oeoDle were
inconvenienced.
"I thought police had taken
care of that. I'm sorry that it
happened. I'm a little irate
myself. We tried to keep the
driveway clear," she said.
Jerry Luthren, USC assistant
vice president for law enforcement
and safety, said no
complaints have been filed.
"When the city gives permission
for a march, there's
really not much we can do
other than make things as safe
as possible," he said.
Journalist
from USSR
visits USC
Weapon elimination
possible, editor says
By CARL DAWSGN
Assistant news editor
The editor of a major Soviet
journal visited USC during his
post-summit evaluation tour of
America. Valentin Berezhkov,
70, edits USA: Economics,
Politics, Ideology, a monthly
magazine with a circulation of
32,000 published by the Institute
of U.S. and Canadian Studies,
part of the USSR Academy of
Sciences.
Berezhkov said it is important
as editor of the magazine to have
_ c i' ^ * - ~
a iceung ior me atmosphere of
the U.S. after the summit
meeting and to find out prospects
for the two countries' future
relationship.
He said it looks as if Reagan
and Gorbachev agreed at the
summit that they can work
together to eliminate nuclear
weapons, but Reagan's Strategic
Defense Initiative, or Star Wars,
is a major stumbling block.
"We feel there is no need to
spend tens of billions of dollars in
order to eliminate weapons if one
can just eliminate them without
doing that," Berezhkov said.
"This is something that we

weapons in space, and we are
against it because then our planet
will be even more vulnerable than
it is now," he said.
Berezhkov said the Soviets
have always sought to be considered
equals, and this is a prerequisite
for any agreements between
the two superpowers.

in Moore
By JULIET NADER
News editor
A 26-year-old Columbia man
with a record of thefts on the
USC campus is awaiting trial
alter being charged in a recent
campus burglary, a USC police
official said.
Singley Juan Pierre was arrested
Saturday at 4:30 p.m. after
the attempted theft of a
Walkman from a room in Moore
dormitory, USC police
spokesman Norman Sanders
said.
Fourth-floor residence hall adviser
Brian Newton said his door
was open when he saw a man who
"looked suspicious," described
in police reports as a black male,
get off the elevator and wander
around. Newton said he decided
to stop the man when he saw him
walk to the other side of the hall.
Newton said when the man
entered an unlocked dorm room,
he followed and asked if he could
help.
The man said he was looking
for his brother, who was in the
shower, and sat down on a bed,
Newton said.
Newton said the man started to
leave with a Walkman. When
Newton asked ' man what he
was doing with the radio, and
asked for an ID, he dropped the
Walkman and tried to move
away, according to Newton.
Moore resident Paul Devine,
who had just gone down the hall
to watch a basketball game, said
he met the man as he was leaving
the dorm room and told Newton
he didn't know the suspect.

compromise if we see that the
other side is prepared to compromise,
but an agreement is
valid only when it is based on
equal interests and not because
the other side was forced to accept
this agreement.
"This principle of equal quality,
equal security is very important
for us, and whatever
agreements could be reached,
they will be reached only on the
basis of this principle."
He said a change in Reagan's
rhetoric from an aggressive, antiSoviet
stance to his present hopes
for change has created a situation
in which there is a chance for attempts
at improved relations.
Reagan seems to "have come
to the conclusion that there must
be some way found to normalize
our relations, while the people

tendency develop," he said.
Berezhkov said the Soviet people
are more informed than the
U.S. public.
"Unfortunately, your mass
media, and to some extent, the
official propaganda of the
Reagan administration, has
rjdreated a very distorted picture of

burglary
Newton and Devine took the
man to the Towers lobby, where
they called univeisity police.
According to Danny Baker,
systems vice president for law enforcement
and safety, said the
suspect kept complaining in the
lobby that he had to use the
bathroom.
The group then went to the
Towers lounge, and while the
man was being searched, a wallet
fell from under his jacket, according
to witnesses. Devine identified
the wallet as his.
"I checked and found that my
wallet was missing before they
found it," Devine said.

degree burglary, larceny and
trespassing.
This is Pierre's third arrest on
the USC campus, Sanders said.
He was found guilty in April 1983
after he was found trespassing at
Moore, carrying a resident's
bank teller card.
Pierre was found guilty of
second-degree burglary, disorderly
conduct and drunkeness in
November 1985 after he was seen
running out of Bates House with
a resident's wallet.
Sanders said he didn't know
whether the court told Pierre not
to come back to campus after his
first offense, hnf hp caiH th#? nrvr.
mal procedure would be to warn
him against it.
He said Pierre would have been
reported if his officers had seen
him.
This is the 18th attempted theft
from Moore dorm, Baker said.
