More than 100 USC students were reportedly detained Saturday for
underage drinking and disorderly conduct in a residential area behind
m Tallv Ho as Dolice responded to repeated neighborhood complaints.
^ Many intoxicated students were put into a paddy wagon and arrested,
according to witnesses in the neighborhood. 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.
Another neighborhood resident, Russell McCutcheon, videotaped
males and females two weeks ago while they were using the bathroom

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.

time in the night, there should be one," he said.

"They're filthy, they're nasty and they act like they came from a
cock cave," senior Patricia Jones said last week.
As for a solution, many residents said the problem has been going on
for years and will never cease. And although Robert Wilson was satisfied
with the police action Saturday, he is skeptical about what to expect next
week.
