Plans to build a $110 million private hospital on the grounds of the university's Health Sciences campus have proponents of County-USC Medical Center, pictured above, worried that quality at that faculty could decline. They contend that services for low-income patients are likely to taper off.
Hospital project draws criticism
Group claims construction of facility may reduce low-income patient care

Members of the International Committee Against Racism at County-USC Medical Center are concerned that the quality of care at their facility will decrease after a $110 million private hospital is built adjacent to the medical center.
The 275-bed hospital will be a general medical and surgical facility scheduled to open in February 1991. It will be built, operated and owned by National Medical Enterprises Inc., the second largest private health corporation in the country.
Committee member Lauren Outland, a staff nurse, said possible cutbacks in programs and wards might jeopardize the
medical care at County-USC.
"County is already losing money and we are worried that some services might be canceled," Outland said. "If they are doing transplants (at the new hospital) then it's possible that they will cancel the transplant program at County-USC to save money. If they do that, where will the patients who don't have the money to pay go 7'
Because the new hospital and County-USC plan to share both doctors and interns, Outland said she is worried that private patients will receive better treatment.

36 freshman males seek housing

Although the university has assigned permanent housing to female freshmen formerly in temporary accommodations, 36 male freshmen remain in converted lounges and double rooms made into triples, said
Bill Thompson, director of housing.
University Housing placed 43 freshman females in the University Hilton in August, but the remaining freshman males have temporary housing facilities in Harris Hall, College-University Residence Hall and Fluor Tower.
Freshman males in temporary housing "will definitely have spaces for second semester," TTiompson said. "We anticipate them all going into freshman housing."
Students complained that'
temporary housing caused problems and that the university had the option of moving them when rooms become available.
"We want to settle down, but since this is a temp it's hard because they're going to move us," said Phillip Jeung, a freshman majoring in music.
"There is no phone so you have to truck on down to the pay phone," said Casey Peterson, a freshman majoring in drama. "Plus, the light switch is out in the hall. People walk by at three in the morning and turn (See Housing, page 8)

Although the Student Senate last year allocated $16,000 to the university radio station KSCR, the station continues to experience financial difficulties and cannot broadcast to Commons and dining halls as planned.
Gary Caffey, KSCR news director, said the radio station should have started broadcasting to Commons during the summer.
However, Susan Wilkie, director of Dining Services, said she has had no contact with KSCR regarding live broadcasts since last school year.
"The agreement was that we would try broadcasting KSCR in our facilities, but they would be responsible for the hookup," Wilkie said. "At EVK, some technicians came in for cables, but since then we have had no communication with KSCR."
The station could not start (See KSCR, page 3)

This is a story about the good guys vs. the bad guys.
At least, that's what Jack Hine-bauch, recruiting coordinator for the athletic department, would have you believe.
Holding a USC football helmet in his right hand and an Oklahoma University helmet in the other, Hinebauch was introducing a group of international students to American football.
"Remember on Saturday, the good guys will be wearing the helmet on the right and the bad guys will be wearing the other," he said, amusing the students.
The seminar, held Wednesday in
Topping Student Center, was the first of 10 "Student Survival Sessions" sponsored by the International Peer Advocates, an international student organization devoted to the "human factor" of helping students from abroad understand America's people and culture.
"I love to watch American football," said Makoto Yamagisha, a graduate student from Japan majoring in computer science. "I bought the Troy alma mater record to study how to cheer also."
As a video of last year's USC-UCLA football game rolled, students edged forward in their seats to catch every glimpse of the Trojan action.
It appeared that some of the stu-(See Football, page 9)
