WEATHER TODAY: Mostly sunny, windy, 78/59 TOMORROW: Partly cloudy, 77/60 Kris Chun /Dally Tro|an Rapper Ice Cube and activist Angela Davis discussed Cube’s controversial lyrics Thursday at the Davidson Conference Center. Cube criticized on campus Rapper speaks on ‘Death’ video By Joel Connable Staff Writer Controversy about the use of offensive language in rapper Ice Cube's music and his stand on the gang problem dominated a press conference at the Davidson Conference Center Thursday that was to promote the release of a new video by the rap star. Speakers at the conference, including Angela Davis, a member of the Black Panthers in the 1960s and a professor at UC Berkeley, disagreed with Ice Cube's (a.k.a. O'Shea Jackson) use of language in his songs and his video "Death Certificate." Davis agreed with Jackson's points of black oppression and despair, but did not agree with his methods of getting his points across, specifically his "hard-core" style and the use of the words "nigger" and "bitch." "These women need to be told that they are bitches and are living a savage life," Jackson said. "No woman is going to admit that she is a bitch unless she is told so." "The word 'bitch' is defined by specific behavioral characteristics," said James (See Rap, page 3) Escort denies allegations By J. Martin McOmber Staff Writer An Escort Service official denied allegations of his department's involvement in a hit-and-run accident on University Avenue and 30th Street last week, a Los Angeles Police Department spokesman said Thursday. Larry Sangren, an LAPD South Traffic Division officer investigating the incident, said that Dennis Archambault, the head of university's Escort Service, interviewed employees who were on duty the night of the hit-and-run. They all denied involvement in the accident, Sangren said. Archambault confirmed that he had spoken with the five people on duty when the incident took place, but declined to comment on specifics. "This may go to litigation, and on advice of the University Counsel, I can say nothing further," he said. (See Escort, page 2) First-graders pack lunch for homeless By Rob Kato Staff Writer Children, non-protit agencies and numerous university volunteers were in Alumni Park on Thursday to participate in the second annual Volunteer Fair. With help from university student volunteers, about 50 costumed first-graders from 32nd Street School decorated paper bags with crayon drawings of balloons and Halloween pumpkins and filled each with a lunch made up of a sandwich, chips, an apple and a soda. The bags were then placed in a van and distributed to area homeless by university students and other volunteers. "We packed about 400 lunches this year in an hour as opposed to only 100 last year," said Sharon Sla- vin, assistant dean of Student Affairs who supervises the Student Volunteer Center. "Maybe next year we'll try for 1,000." "I wish there were more programs like this that allow the children to get involved with the community," said Pat Gilbert, first-grade teacher at 32nd Street School. The fair, presented by the Student Volunteer Center, and sponsored by the Asian Student Assembly, Latino Student Assembly, Hawaii Club, University Village, 32nd Street Market and Commons, was considered a success by both organizers and participants. "There wasn't quite as much student foot traffic as I expected because of Halloween and the Weekender," said Dinesh De Silva, (See Lunches, page 3) Jeff Wachner / Dally Trojan Oscar Blanco talks with Adriana Chavarin, left, and Diane Rodriguez at the USC Volunteer Fair
