Volume XCVII, Number 48 University of Southern California Friday, November 9, 1984 Court ruling may renew television football ban NCAA maintains right to punish college teams By Drew Voros Staff Writer The Trojan football team will most likely be absent from live regular season television again next year, after a federal judge decided the National Collegiate Athletic Association can punish rule violators with TV bans. While the ruling will not affect the university's 1986 Rose Bowl hopes, it will mean a "definite loss of revenue" for the university and the athletic department. Said Don Winston, associate athletic director. The ruling will probably also mean that the NCAA will have the final word in college football television make-up. Telecasts scheduled for this season will not be affected. Saturday’s game against Washington at the Coliseum will be the first time the Trojans have appeared on national TV since they plaved Notre Dame in 1982. The Los Angeles Times reported Nov. 3 that federal Judge Juan Burciago issued a clarification of his original order affirming the NCAA's right to punish rule vi- olators by banning them from televison. After the NCAA lost control of football telecasts in a Supreme Court ruling earlier this year, schools banned from television were given an option to put off their probate period for a season, pending court decisions on the ruling's logistics. This university took the option. "We took a chance hoping the court would not rule in favor of the NCAA,” Winston said. "This was the same judge who took the NCAA to the Supreme Court and broke their television control under anti-trust grounds." William Hogoboom, university' general counsel, said it appears the sanctions that were to be imposed this season will be instituted in the 1985 regular season. He also said the other dozen or so schools under similar probation all took the same option as this university. The only exception was the University of Arizona. The Trojans have or are scheduled to appear on television eight times this season, including three national telecasts on CBS-TV: Washington, UCLA and Notre Dame. The regular season blackout will not affect the university's chances for the Pacific-10 Conference Rose Bowl berth next year. HEIDI EMERSON DAILY TROJAN RODEO DAY- Featuring games and contests for prizes, the Kappa Sigma fraternity sponsored their annual “rodeo day” Wednesday and Thursday. Here two Alpha Chi Omega's put boxer shorts on a greased pig. USC plans for $125m hospital By Dana Glad Staff Writer Plans for a new S125 million university hospital, to be built adjacent to the Health Sciences campus, were outlined for the medical school faculty at a meeting Tuesday. Dr. Joseph Van Der Meulen, vice president of health affairs, said the 300-bed "first quality university teaching hospital" Professor: U.S. intensifies Latin crisis By Andrew Thomas Staff Writer If President Reagan continues his policy in Central America, the region will become increasingly less stable, said Nora Hamilton, an associate professor of political science, during a luncheon Thursday at the Faculty Center, sponsored by the Roundtable Committee. Hamilton, a specialist in Latin American politics, discussed the significance of the Reagan victory on U.S. policy in Central America. The administration's policy, she said, "focuses on a military solution to the crisis in the area." Reagan's policies will result in an intensified military atmosphere that will affect all of Latin America, Hamilton said. "If it continues in the present direction — and I hope it does not — it will certainly affect Mexico," she said. "The costs of our policies are quite high," Hamilton said, citing the "acute economic crisis" in Latin America. She attributed the crisis to a combination of factors, including the low price of Latin American products on the world market, the heavy debts of those countries, increases in unemployment, production cutbacks and inflation. She also said the United States is forcing many countries to spend money on the military that they would rather spend on domestic programs. More than 10,000 people have died in Nicaragua over the last three years as a result of the war between the Nicaraguan go- Student candidate loses election By Rebecca Esquibel Staff Writer William Sanderson, the university student who ran as a Republican for assemblyman for this district, lost overwhelmingly Nov. 6 to Democratic incumbent Teresa Hughes, but his supporters said the loss was "no shock." "It is almost impossible for a Republican to win in this district," said Lary Oren, president of the Trojan College Republicans. The TCR backed Sanderson in his bid for the 47th district seat. Of the 50,036 votes cast, Hughes received 43,599 and Sanderson received the remaining 6,437. The 47th district is mostly Democratic, and Sanderson said he didn't foresee a Republican assemblyman from this district in the near future. "But should a viable Republican candidate come along, yes, I could see (a Republican victory)," he said. He said perhaps a reason he did not win was the people who live in the district do not think a university student would properly represent their needs. "I don't think that people in the community believe that a student from the university could sympathize with them," Sanderson said. "For a Republican to win this district, they would have to come from the community and not the school." Two years ago the Trojan College Republicans supported another university Republican for district assemblyman. Oren said it is ridiculous that Hughes has run for about 10 years without any serious competition. "With opposition you get the best of both worlds. Right now we're not getting any choice," Oren said. Sanderson said he ran for office because he was encouraged by the Trojan College Republicans and members of the Los Angeles chapter of the Young Republicans. "There was a need for a Republican candidate and if I hadn't ran there wouldn't have been one," Sanderson said. He said he did gain some political experience by running for assemblyman. "I got to participate in some interesting things," he said. "I was part of a political action group and I got to meet a lot of the movers and the shakers in the Republican Party." Sanderson, a senior majoring in business, said he does not plan to continue in politics. vemment and Honduras-based rebels known as contras, Hamilton said. She added that "many people in Nicaragua are convinced that the attack on Grenada was a dress rehearsal for Nicaragua," and that Nicaragua has "increased dependence on Soviet arms as a result of the Reagan administration." "One thing behind the revolution (in Nicaragua) has been the policy of the United States/' Hamilton said. Historically, she said, "the U.S. has not supported democratic regimes if they have tried to bring about really substantial reforms." "The Sandinistas want to have relationships with many different kinds of countries," Hamilton said. She added that in the spring of 1982, the Sandinistas received more aid from Western Europe than from Cuba and the Soviet Union combined. United States policy in El Salvador is to control, but not destroy the resistance, Hamilton said. She said an increase in U.S. military involvement is probable, especially greater use of helicopters for troop transports and gunships. Hamilton also predicted an increase in the flow of refugees from El Salvador to the United States. She said there are now 500,000 Salvadoran refugees in the United States — 350,000 in Los Angeles alone. Costa Rica, the most democratic of the Latin American countries, has also been drawn into the crisis, Hamilton said. American aid to Costa Rica has in-(Continued on page 2) could be completed within the next three years, pending approval of the Finance Committee and the Board of Trustees in the next month. Although the university would purchase the land for the hospital, located near Norfolk and Alcazar Avenues, a private health care corporation would lease the land and construct the hospital. National Medical Enterprises, Inc. was selected because it had worked on a study for the hospital in 1973 and was able to complete a proposal by February, far ahead of its competitors, Van Der Meulen said. The corporation would then receive all profits from the hospital, except physician's fees, which would be paid to a staff of doctors who are also university faculty members. National Medical Enterprises has offered to donate $500,000 of its profits to the university annually. Van Der Meulen said. Robert Biller, executive vice provost, said Monday that the hospital was needed to provide more varied and long term cases not available at the County-USC Medical Center, where students encounter "more and more of the same." The hospital is "needed for educational quality," Biller said, because the case load at the medical center is becoming more specialized. County-USC tends to attract individuals in an advanced state of illness who cannot afford care elsewhere and often have no medical records. Thus, Biller said, there is no opportunity to track complicated cases that might require referrals to multiple specialists. The current facility is excellent for gaining emergency room experience, but probably does not help students prepare for many of the types of cases they will encounter in their practices. Biller said. The faculty would benefit (Continued on page 11)
