A Sharper Focus Literary magazines offer alternatives to student apathy By Jordana Bieze Staff Writer It's happy hour in the courtyard of the cinema school complex. The music is loud, the beer is flowing, cigarette smoke fills the air. Students here are those who will speed the tide of mass media as it slowly obliviates use of the written word for communication of ideas. But there are two students who are equally committed to the kind of creative expression that can't be recorded on videotape. For years, the university has had virtually no alternative campus magazines, no outlets for students with something to say. Not surprising, really, given our anti-activist nature. But maybe we only appear apathetic because those with something to say have had no place to say it. Now there are two outlets — a fledgling fiction mag called On the Top Story and an outspoken ideological forum, Junkyard Dog, left for dead four years ago while still in its infancy. Kim Bieber, editor-in-chief of the junkyard Dog, is a cinema major. In fact, that is all she has in common with the man who created the magazine back in 1986 and let it die after two issues. John Foley, editor-in-chief of On the Top Story, is a creative writing major. But he's a cinema minor. And a Virgo. The two editors met through the cinema school, but their literary projects are completely independent. Thursday's happy hour is the first time they have even discussed the magazines' similarities, differences, areas of overlap. (See Magazine, page 4) College may not prevent draft notices for students Reagan Administration regulations untested By Minerva Canto Staff Writer Many college students may not be aware that if a military draft were instituted, they would not be exempt just because they are attending college. Under draft regulations passed by Congress during the Reagan Administration that are yet untested by a national draft, even undergraduate students are eligible. With the ongoing Persian Gulf crisis bringing the United States closer to a war, it is important that students know all the regulations concerning the draft, said Anne Wrixon, a military and draft counselor from the Central Committee for Conscientious Objection. The Middle East Crisis is not some- thing that should be taken lightly by college students, Wrixon said. "The Pentagon says we are not going to war anytime soon, but you never know," she said. Under the revised draft regulations, deferment would only be available to religious ministers. She said that a draft can be initiated and orders can be sent out within 24 hours. Other grounds for draft exemption include asthma or heart murmurs, homosexuality, being the source of more than 50 percent of financial support for one's family, or if a member from one's immediate family were killed in a war, Wrixon said. Military recruiters are often very aggressive in their efforts to recruit people for the military, said Wrixon. (See Draft, page 4) Student threatened with knife at Health Sciences Campus By Anjanette Schouwe Staff Writer A graduate student was threatened with a knife Thursday morning at the Health Sciences Campus by an unidentified man who stole her car but did not hurt her, security officials said. The student had parked her car in the Zonal Avenue parking lot about 10 a.m. Thursday when a middle-aged man approached the car, threatened her with a knife and told her to move to the passenger seat, said Sgt. Edward Hall of University Security. The man reportedly opened the car door and told the student: "Don't give me any problems. I won't hurt you." She complied and scooted over to the passenger's seat, Hall said. But before the robber drove off with the car, the student jumped out and ran for help at a parking attendant booth. The robber then drove away, Hall said. The student suffered no injuries when she jumped out of the car. The man drove off in the student's 1977 Mazda sedan westbound on Zonal Avenue. Police did not arrive in time to follow the suspect, said Detective Rick Peterson from the Los Angeles Police Department's Hollenbeck Division. The student provided police with a description of the robber, but police said Friday they had no new leads in the case. Police had neither recovered the car nor made any arrests. The student said the stolen car belonged to her father, Peterson said. Alcohol won’t be a factor in big game By Gloria Lau Staff Writer In preparation for the upcoming UCLA football game, the university's athletic department and officials from UCLA have agreed to implement the toughest alcohol policy yet at the Rose Bowl stadium for Saturday's matchup with the Bruins, university officials said. Alcohol will not be permitted into the Rose Bowl stadium this year, nor will fans be able to carry in any sort of container, or leave the stadium and come back during the game. This is the first year a no-alcohol policy will be enforced. "The Rose Bowl is a dry stadium and alcohol cannot be brought in," said Don Ludwig, director of intermural recreation. In fact, no alcohol from any source will be permitted. Concession stands will sell only non-alcoholic beverages, said Valerie Paton, assistant dean of student affairs. All students must respect the rules, Ludwig said. Students who do not comply with the regulations may be forcibly removed from the stadium. "Neither campus will treat this lightly," he said. "Students will be immediately arrested by respective campus departments." The rivalry continues. .November 17, 1990 Six years ago, a group of university students ran onto the Rose Bowl field during a UCLA game, Ludwig said. They were arrested immediately, but this year's policy seeks to ensure that there will not be a repeat of that incident, he said. Anything that students bring into the stadium should be to cheer on their own team, and nothing that brings a negative light on the opposing team will be permitted, Ludwig said. About 90,000 to 95,000 people attend this game, Ludwig said, warning that students should expect parking hassles. Overnight parking is not permitted at the stadium and everyone is encouraged to carpool. Trojan Pride, a university spirit organization, is offering a roundtrip bus ride to the Rose Bowl for $5.50 a person. A free shuttle in Westwood that buses students to the Rose Bowl from the Parsons lot on the comer of Fair Oaks and Walnut streets is another transportation option. Parking in the lot is free.
