Only Bush, Kemp will debate tonight Vice President George Bush and New York Rep. Jack Kemp will meet tonight in a two-man debate among Republican presidential candidates, to be viewed live via satellite at Annenberg Auditorium. Spokesmen for Kansas Sen. Bob Dole and former televangelist Pat Robertson announced Thursday that both presidential hopefuls were bowing out of the debate, paring the field of attending Republican candidates to two. The fifth Republican candidate, Pierre "Pete" du Pont, officially withdrew from the race Thursday. The two-hour debate will begin at 6 p.m., prefaced by a 5:30 p.m. introduction at Annenberg. Volume CV!, Number 27 University of Southern California Friday, February 19, 1988 trojan Senate wins fight for new escort hours By Kathleen Berry Staff Writer Reagan’s foreign policy lambasted via satellite The escort service will extend its operations on a trial basis until 3 a.m. on Fridays and Saturdays, as part of a Student Senate effort to determine demand for late-night service, senators confirmed Thursday. Student senators will sit in the security office and monitor calls to test the need for escort service during these hours, said Michael Rodriguez, a Greek senator and a member of the Escort Service Extension Task Force. "I believe that if more students know about the extended hours, a larger amount of students will respond," Rodriguez said. Senators expect escort to execute the plan within three weeks. The escort service receives about three calls nightly after 1 a.m., its normal closing time, said Dennis Archambault, special projects administrator of University Security. Extending service would cost about $6,700 each year, he said. “If there is this big demand, we haven't seen it, so maybe it's because people haven't known that they can go ahead and call," Archambault said. "If it becomes so clear to everyone that the need exists, and the call load is so horrendous," then escort service will extend its hours, he said. Escort service receives 170 to 200 calls (Continued on page 5) Democrats spar before 500-university audience By Chris Eftychiou Staff Writer About 180 students gathered Thursday night in Annenberg Auditorium to watch Democratic presidential candidates in a live debate that was broadcast via satellite from MICHAEL KIM DAILY TROJAN al contest.

Dallas to more than 500 universities nationwide. Students submitted questions early on in the program to the Program Board's speakers committee, which selected questions to call in to the candidates for a live phone-in program after the two-hour debate. The College Satellite Network, which broadcast the program and screened incoming calls, selected one call from USC. But the candidates did not receive the call because the question was sent too early, before the candidates finished their second hour of debate. The candidates that appeared were: Massachusetts Gov. Michael Dukakis; Missouri Rep. Richard Gephardt; the Rev. Jesse Jackson; former Colorado Sen. Gary Hart and Tennessee Sen. Al Gore. Illinois Sen. Paul Simon did not attend because he wanted to concentrate on his campaign, said Bob Sanders of KERA-TV in Texas. Former Arizona Gov. Bruce Babbitt did not attend because he withdrew from the race following his poor sixth-place showing in the New Hampshire primary. In announcing his decision, Babbitt said, "a presidential campaign is not a good place to try out new ideas." A half-hour of information on the candidates and on voter registration preceded the 6 p.m. debate. The debate, moderated by NBC correspondent Roger Mudd, touched on several topics including the Middle East, Latin America, trade policy and defense spending. Every candidate lambasted the Reagan administration's foreign policy record — as Gore asserted, "We've had a lot of foreign policy fiascos." "The first thing I wouldn't do is trade arms to the Ayatollah," Dukakis said of the Middle East.
