NEW YORK (AP) - Jessica Tandy, who won an Academy Award at age 80 for her portrayal of a spirited Southern matriarch in "Driving Miss Daisy," died Sunday after a four-year battle with ovarian cancer. She was 85. Tandy's acting career spanned more than 60 years, mostly on stage in New York and London. She was Broadway's original Blanche DuBois in the memorable 1947 production of Tennessee Williams' "A Streetcar Named Desire" that co-starred Marlon Brando as Stanley Kowalski. The actress won three Tony awards, Broadway's highest honor - first for "Streetcar" in 1948, then "The Gin Game" in 1978 and "Foxfire" in 1983. Besides "Miss Daisy," Tandy's movies included "The Seventh Cross" (1944), "Forever Amber" (1947), Walt Disney's "Light in the Forest" (1958), Alfred Hitchcock's "The Birds" (1963), "Butley" (1974) with Alan Bates, "The World According to Garp" (1982) with Robin Williams, The Bostonians" (1984), "Cocoon" (1985), and "Fried Green Tomatoes* (1991). | TODAY Today is Monday, Sept 12, the 255th day of 1994.

NOTEBOOK Volunteer Fair to be held Sept. 23 The USC Volunteer Fair will be held Sept. 23 from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. on the Russell House patio (rain location: RH Golden Spur). The fair provides a unique opportunity for Columbia community service agencies to highlight their volunteer opportunities and to introduce themselves to the Carolina Community. Students, faculty and staff are invited to attend. The Office of Community Service Programs encourages the University community to increase their awareness and involvement related to service. The fall of each year is an excellent opportunity to increase individual volunteer involvement in many areas. To many students, the idea of volunteering is a new one. Others who are interested in service are simply unaware of all the community service options that exist in the Columbia area. The USC Volunteer Fair will provide an opportunity for the agencies to preview their services to future volunteers. For more information, call Margaret O'Gorman or Rachelle Lehner at 777-5780.

"The program is opened to anyone interested in the community, and the only prerequisite is a high school diploma or a GDE," said Beth Unger, director for Community Programs. "It is a condensed weekend format certification program in which the instructors are attorneys," Unger said. "A lot of times, these instructors will be accompanied by paralegals. The program will be offered at other locations as well, including Charleston, Myrtle Beach and Greenville." "The program has been running for two years now," Unger said. "It has been very successful. A lot of folks that have taken the course are now working in le gal offices. Hoiks considering law school should especially consider attending the course." Paralegal programs vaiy nationwide, but USC's is unusual because it coordinates with another program out of state. "There are lots of paralegal study programs, but the one we're doing is in coordination with a place in Colorado called i' to reduce gai -orn 12 tons to 20 tons a campaign to warn stuck t has been equipped with dangers of not recyclinj lck and computer system Recycle 2000 was gi\ U enable them to get on- ahead by vice preslden ? ? ness Affairs Richard V i other colleges and urn- by Director of Waste Ma Shealy McCoy, ire going to reduce the "This university hai of waste production on hind us and we now hav dus by at least 25 percent ity to surpass others be _ j i. i : Thomas said.
