Review actions planned
By Catalina Camia
Assistant Qty Editor
The six houses dted by University Security in last week's disturbance on the Row, as well as the three students who were arrested will now go through the proper disciplinary channels to determine what action will be taken, said Jim Dennis, senior vice president of student affairs, during a meeting of the Interfra-temity Council Tuesday night.
"The houses cited will get a fair and thorough hearing that will indicate their culpability — the kind of responsibility they hold for the things that went on Thursday night, if in fact they are found to be in violation of university rules and regulations and municipal laws," Dennis
said. "They wall be dealt with fairly, consistently, and firmly."
For the Alpha Tau Omega, Kappa Alpha, Phi Gamma Delta, Chi Phi, Theta Xi, and Sigma Alpha Mu houses, this means they will be subject to the decision of a conduct review board.
Dennis said after the meeting that the conduct review board can either consist of peers or administrators, but because of the severity of the case, will possibility consist of administrators.
Those students arrested will be accorded due process under the law and will be subject to the actions of the court system, said Capt. Stan McGarry’ of the Southwest Division of the Los Angeles Police Department.
Early last Friday morning, 15
Los Angeles police officers and a helicopter attempted to disperse a crowd of about 300 students after an all-Row party' early last Friday morning. The police arrived on the Row in response to a call of assault with a deadly weapon.
McGarry said a student was arrested for delaying and disrupting the arrest procedure. Several police vehicles were hit by rocks, bottles and eggs. At this point, an officer called for assistance. The officers declared the situation to be an unlawful assembly and formed a skirmish line to disperse the crowd. A student threw a rock at an officer in the line and later w'as taken into custody and booked (Continued on page 12)
Gamble awe for
House holds history, architecture students

Gamble House. For architecture students, these two words mean as much as the Mona Lisa and the Sistine Chapel do to students of fine arts. But for students of this university, this piece of art is much more accessible than those in Europe since the university operates the house.
"Internationally, this house is looked upon as one of the great artworks of the world and cultural works of the world," said Randell Makinson, director of Gamble House and a former design studio professor at the university for 10 years.
"This is cur St. Peter's Dome, our Hope Diamond, our nation's international treasure," he said. "It represents one of the highest artistic levels this
country has produced. It's a part of our national culture."
Like the prestigious company it's in, the house is viewed by students and visitors all over the world. Yet, it has something these places do not — tenants. Each year two university architecture students make this house their home after going through a screening and interview process.
The address on their stationery reads 4 Westmoreland Place, Pasadena, Calif. The three-story' structure was owned by the second and third generations of the Procter & Gamble Co. empire until 1966 when the university became its operator and administrator.
At that time, the grandchildren of the original owners contacted the university conveying the wishes of their parents
(third generation Gambles) that the university aid in preserving and using the house so that it could be shared with the public, Makinson said.
The house encompasses over
8,000	square feet and has approximately 21 rooms. It also contains electric lighting, a rar-itv in structures of the period.

Automated teller lease not renewed
By Lisa Ackerman
-City Writer
In February the Wells Fargo Express Stop will be removed from the side of the Financial Services Building, the area will be sealed over and by summer a new automatic teller machine (ATM) from the USC Credit Union will be in its place, said Lyn Hutton, university treasurer.
"Wells Fargo's lease with us expired Jan. 1 and we could not reach terms on renewing it," Hutton said.
She also said that a lot of requests had come into her office over the past year to put in an ATM with the university credit union.
"We are trying to please the greatest number of people at USC and the credit union is the best decision," she said.
The university credit union has 5,500 members and Wells Fargo only has about 500 accounts here she said.
Hutton listed two reasons why the renewed lease submitted by Wells Fargo in early December was not acceptable to the university.
The first reason is because Wells Fargo did not want to pay S100 a month rent to the university.
Wells Fargo has not paid any rent in the last year although they signed a contract saying they would pay the $100 a month, Hutton said.
"We never received an invoice or a phone call asking us to pay rent," said Yvonne Glas, assistant vice president of Express Service for Wells Fargo.
Hutton said that First Interstate Bank sends in its monthly rent check without the university sending a bill. The original contract lists an address to send all notices.
"We were not real aggressive about getting the $100 from them, but we thought that if you sign an agreement with an address of where to send the check you should assume the responsibility to do it," she said.
She said the second reason is because Wells Fargo had not

Gerontology offers insight

Students advocating aging awareness for society
"The biggest problem with society is that aging is a taboo subject. We want to forget that we are mortal. We are still a youth-orientated society, but soon there are going to be more older poeple than there are younger. Society just doesn't understand the elderly. They may be slower, but they're just as smart."

Indeed, there does seem to be an apalling lack of public awareness of both the elderly and the field of gerontolgy, according to a general consensus among gerontology students. Yet, gradually the field is growing and, in the process, attracting an increasing number of followers.
"People initially wonder what it is. It's intriguing. But once students are in the program they can't get enough," Farwell said. "Once people start taking gerontology' courses they realize it has a lot to offer. They see the potential."
This proved to be the case with first year dual MPA/MSG (master public administration/master science gerontology) major Julie Holtrust. Despite having worked with the elderly in both her church and the community, Holtrust's initial reaction was negative when a sociology professor recommended she double-major in gerontolgy.
"I thought no, I don't want to work in a nursing home. Then I looked into the program and realized I could get a valuable specialization and work in public administration, the field I was actually interested in," Holtrust said.
"I began to think wow, what is this? What can it do to enrich me, make me more marketable?
"Students entering the field don't know what to expect. Not all are particularly' fascinated with the elderly. It's such a broad field, it’s much more than nursing homes."
Work in the field as expanded to the nation's capital as Congress forms policies concerning the elderly. This summer Holtrust has applied for an internship with the Federal Council of Aging in

Washington, D.C. Eventually, though, she wants to pursue human resource management.
"I hope to benefit the elderly through programs, not directly," she said. When the baby boom generation reaches retirement age we are going to need a lot of programs to help them keep active and useful. We need to prepare for it."
Farwell, a graduate in the same program, also discovered the variety gerontology had to offer when her sociology professor suggested the field to her.
"In his classes he covered a lot of aging issues," Farwell said. "I read more about the field and became more interested. I also did volunteer work with the Outreach program in Glendale."
"I'd like to see older people not being institutionalized. It's not the only alternative. There is adult health care and case managers, among others. I want to try to help the elderly maintain independence."
Farwell interned as a case manager, but she, like Holtrust, recognizes Washington, D.C., as "the hub of aging. I'd like to have worked on the Senate's Special Committee on Policy and Aging."
Laura Trejo discovered gerontology on her own. As an undergraduate in psychology she decided to take some electives in gerontology. These classes encouraged her to enroll in the administrative policy program with a specialization in health service administration.
