The Moore Garden pond will be drained
next week in a second attempt to retrieve the
ducks and return them to the Thomas Cooper
Library pond, but some students think the
ducks should be left where they are.
Peg Rantz, animal care supervisor at USC's
Animal Resources Facilities, said ARF
couldn't capture the ducks as planned TuesI
day because the ducks were not hungry.
ARF tried to entice the ducks into cages by

Operational services has agreed to drain the
Moore Garden pond next week to aid capture,
but Rantz said ARF still may not be able to
catch all the ducks.
"We'll just have to see what happens,"
Rantz said.
Caliste Cambre, assistant director of operations
at Thomas Cooner Library, said it will
take about a day to drain the pond through a
valve in the bottom.
Cambre hopes to get the ducks back at the
beginning of next week after the draining, but

He said if anyone bothers them at the

The Student Senate finished <
the second half of a package deal \
for rule changes, passing the new ]
Student Government codes to ac- i
company the new constitution at
Wednesday's Senate meeting.
The codes were revised by the
V^UllMllUllUllcll IXCWIIIC V^uillllllltee,
which rewrote the constitution
this past year. The codes are
rules for the senate to conduct
proper procedure.
Before the bill presenting them
was passed, an amendment

was to establish a savings account

Sen. Harry Sharp and other
senators objected to saving activities

would reduce money during
reallocation.
"In this instance, without a set
goal in mind, I don't believe it is
right to stockpile money," Sharp
said, adding it would help no

Sharp also said the amendmentwas
