trojan Volume CV, Number 25 University of Southern California Friday. October 9, 1987 Employee at area bar fired for serving minor By Kevin Ota Staff Writer An employee at the 32nd Street Cafe and Saloon in University Village was fired last Friday night after he was cited by two undercover Alcoholic Beverage Control investigators for serving alcohol to minors. The incident occurred just six weeks after the cafe — currently under investigation by the ABC — was stripped of its liquor license for 10 days because it was caught serving alcohol to minors last October. “The place is under an investigation because of complaints that they were serving alcohol to minors," said Scott Ralston, supervising investigator at ABC. "An investigation was conducted (Tuesday) night." However, Steve Rich, general manager of the cafe, said Wednesday he was not aware of any investigation. "If anything has happened we have not been notified," Rich said. "If someone has cited anything, then they have not told us. "Usually they notify the company if they have been cited for something," Rich continued. "Nothing happened Saturday, Sunday, Monday or Tuesday. Nothing happened that I know about." (Continued on page 6) MORE PROBLEMS — The 32nd Street Cafe and Saloon is under investigation for serving minors. Rally participants sensing victory as Bork’s popularity seems to slip By Brad Bowlin Staff Writer There was a mood of victory among those who turned out for the anti-Bork rally held in front of the Law Center Thursday afternoon. The U.S. Senate Judiciary Committee voted 9-5 Tuesday to reject Bork's nomination to the U.S. Supreme Court. Unofficial counts estimate that up to 52 senators plan to vote against the nominee when he comes before the full Senate. "The battle is over, but the war is not won vet," said David Theodosopoulos, Student Bar Association president, referring to Bork's anticipated defeat. Theodosopoulos estimated that 150 law students and an additional 100 universitv students listened as law Professor Erwin Chemerinsky and Ray Johnson of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People spoke out against Bork and praised those responsible for his slipping popularity. "The system worked because the Senate played the role the framers (of the Constitution) intended,” Chemerinsky said after the rally had dispersed. Despite the optimistic attitude of the rallv, Che- merinsky was careful to add that the issue over Bork is not dead. "It's not truly over until (Bork) withdrawn or Reagan withdraws the nomination," he said. Four members of Young Americans for Freedom, a conservative group which favors Bork, attended the rally. Wayne Bowen, YAF leader, was even more pessimistic about Bork's chances than the opposition. "Our cause is lost," he said. "Bork is going to lose." Nonetheless, it was important for YAF to make a showing and "let people know' that there are people who care on both sides of the issue," Bowen said. "We're students and we're for Bork." ~ Turnout for the rally was "heartening," said Andy Michaels, co-founder of Concerned Law Students Against Bork and member of the USC Student Senate Judiciary Council. "It was a good turnout. . .and there were lots of non-law students here,” he said. "It's important for us to show that the law school is for everyone, and it's our duty to educate people and take positions on important issues like this." Dave Simon, student senator and co-founder of Concerned Law Students Against Bork, called the (Continued on page 6) Parking scarcity rises amidst construction By Michael Lambert Staff Writer The current flurry of construction at the university has caused a parking problem, since many lots — particularly K. S and E, — have been partially or completely dosed. As a result of the construction of the S17 million Hedco Neurosciences Building, at least a third of Parking Lot K. facing Grace Ford Salvatori Hall, has been dosed. The rest of the lot is scheduled to close in December, said Roy Heidicker. assistant director of Parking Operations. 'The impact on campus will be incredible because that's a pnme spot," Heidicker said. He added that Lot K is generally considered to be the best spot for faculty and administration parking. "Some assured parking spaces have been shifted. " he said, adding that when Lot K is completely dosed, people currently parking there will be shifted to other parking lots on campus Most of the people who have lost their spots have been shifted to Lot 6, he said. Nancy Me Key, associate director of journalism, parks in Lot K She said she doesn't mind moving to another lot. "Not when it's progress," she said. "You get a new building Joseph Kertes. associate dean of social sciences and communication, admitted that he was biased but said that losing his parking spot in Lot K is a "slight inconvenience compared to the tremendous advantage of having a neuroscience building at USC."
