One USC student was heard screaming and kicking at the door of the wagon on his trip to the Richland County Detention Center. "The paddy wagon was making rounds," resident Carolyn Wilson said. "They had that damn thing full." Late in the evening Saturday, resident Joseph Sherlock said he estimated the police had fined or arrested about 150 people in the area. Most of the busts were during and after the football game, he said. A police official answering the telephone at the Richland County Sheriff's Department verified the use of a paddy wagon and the arrests of many students. However, Chief Fred Riddle, in charge of operations, would not return repeated phone calls Saturday or Sunday to verify the exact number arrested. & The police action comes after numerous complaints by residents that students were causing disturbances throughout the neighborhood each Saturday. ; Carolyn Wilson and her husband, Robert, of 1181 Olympia Ave., said |i| they had complained to police repeatedly about students causing disturbances. Both said students, mostly male, dropped their pants and urinated in their front yard which is next to Tally Ho. Robert Wilson said Saturday was the first response he had received. Wilson said he had planned to use his shotgun if police didn't resolve the f problem.

Department now has a copy, shows males urinating in the bushes that connect Tally Ho and his property. The video tape also shows females ? with their pants down ? urinating on the sides and front yards of neighborhood houses after McCuteheon had walked up and surprised them with the video camera. Many of the students in the videotape called McCuteheon "perverted" and yelled obscenities at him while he videotaped license plates numbers from cars parked in front of his house. "If they don't give me respect, I don't give them respect," he said adp ding that he was contemplating the use of a water hose on students. mim As for students using the neighborhood as a public bathroom, owners of Tally Ho added five portable toilets Saturday, solving much of the ||| problem. But residents around the area are still upset over students creating a nuisance and parking in their yards. Some students at Tally Ho agreed mgm that others were probably creating a nuisance.

As for a solution, many residents said the problem has been going on for years and will never cease.
