GILMORE Q. MARA 1 DAILY TROJAN
Jeff Chang, a student disc jockey, spins the latest tunes at KSCR. The station, which is received by a limited (number of students, will go beily-up if it does not receive additional funding.
Student-run radio may be a thing of the past at the university if the Board of Trustees votes against a Student Senate resolution that would add 50 cents to each student's fee bill.
Advertising revenues at the financially ailing KSCR for this year have totaled only about $500, and the Office of Student Publications has decided to stop funding the station.
"We're in a position where we're really relying on the Board of Trustees," said station manager David King.
The station will likely fold temporarily "unless something comes through in a hurry," King said.
But King said he couldn't blame the university for the station's monetary ills. "We've had a hard time, and I can see where the school can see it as costing too much money." The situation has been "hopeless from the school's standpoint."
Even so, King said the university's help "hasn't been full support to get us on our feet."
The additional 50 cents each semester would bring KSCR about $30,000 a year. Current costs for running the station are between $16,000 and $18,000 a year. But King said the station could expand its broadcast base over the next four or five months if the increased funds are granted.

Election week seeks to raise voter turnout
By Jordana Bieze
Staff Writer
The Student Senate election, which begins today, will have a simple two-part slogan: meet the candidates and vote.
Thanks to several additions to the election process, voter turnout may be double that of past years, said Hahn Cao, elections commission chairwoman, who has engineered most of the changes.
Forty hours have been allocated for polling this week, about four hours more than last year, Cao said.
Polls will be open from 10:30 a.m. to 3 p.m. daily in front of Tommy Trojan. Additional pods will be strategically placed to attract an optimal number of voters. Polling on the Row, for example, will be coordinated with Monday night dinner, Cao said.
To be eligible to' vote, students must present a university ID card or a paid fee bill and picture ID, she said.
A complete election schedule is listed in Who’s Who in the '88 Election,which is perhaps the most evident of Cao's creative endeavors. The front page of the election publication features two cows telling students to "be heard — not herded."
"The thing that works in this newspaper is the picture — it's so cute, people pick it up," Cao said.
Ten thousand copies of the publication have been printed, containing personal statements and pictures for all 50 senatorial candidates.

Eu brings Brown battle to campus
By Karen Denne
Staff Writer
Promoting next week's Student Senate elections, California Secretary of State March Fong Eu spoke about the importance of voting and the tragedy of the lack of voter registration — to an audience of 33.
But before she addressed the voting is-
sue, Eu confessed she had "ulterior motives" for coming to the university.
"My speaking to you right now is really in fact a diversionary tactic — or as you say, a Trojan Horse," she said. "Right now, there is a SWAT team taking possession of Doheny Library, and I will be taking with me Gov. Jerry Brown's gubernatorial papers, and I think I'll take President Zumberge as hostage."
The recent fight between the university and Eu over possession of former Gov. Edmund "Jerry" Brown Jr.'s gubernatorial papers erupted when Eu claimed that the university had unlawful possession of the papers.
In 1982, Brown chose the university as the site for 1,600 boxes of his letters, memos and personal correspondence.
