South Korea warns students to cease burning U.S. flags
SEOUL, South Korea — The government Monday warned radical students to stop burning U.S. flags and ordered a crackdown to halt anti-American protests on college campuses.
Information Minister Choe Byung-yul said the government was concerned about burning of U.S. flags by radical students and would no longer allow such anti-American outbursts.
“The government cannot help being deeply concerned by the deplorable activities occurring at some universities recently, where students are profaning a traditionally friendly nation’s flag,” Choe said in a statement.
Radical students, a small but powerful minority on college campuses, have burned American flags and effigies of American officials to demand withdrawal of the 43,080 U.S. troops based in South Korea. The students claim the Seoul government is a front for U.S. military rule.
Nation: Supreme Court rules to crowd prison
WASHINGTON — The Supreme Court has refused to impose a one-inmate-per-cell limit at crowded San Quentin prison in California, where the inmate population is more than 50 percent above the designed capacity.
The justices, without comment Monday, let stand a state appeals court ruling that putting two prisoners in one cramped cell does not amount to constitutionally impermissible “cruel and unusual punishment.”

Police’s pact with Security expires today
May lose power to arrest if renewal is not granted
By Roger Tefft
Assistant City Editor
Today marks the expiration date of an agreement with the Los Angeles Police Department that empowers University Security officers to arrest suspects, a power that has been temporarily extended during negotiations, university officials said Monday.
A police officer's power of arrest, as defined in Section 836 of the California Penal Code, was granted to security forces under a Memorandum of Understanding with the LAPD.
The five-year-old memorandum expires today, but Security officers may continue to exercise the power of arrest while negotiations for renewal are pending, said Lyn Hutton, senior university vice president.
Students and other residents of the university community should feel no less secure than they did when the memorandum was still effective, Hutton said.
"I presume it's going to be status quo," said Capt. Luther Lanier of Security.
The original agreement was signed in September of 1983 and implemented in 1984, before the Olympic Games. Since then, Security has been authorized to arrest criminal suspects within the jurisdiction of the university but without other powers of authority granted to police officers, Lanier said.
In 1988, Security officers made 200 arrests, said Sgt. John Lewis of Security.
But the powers withheld from Security have

Admissions vows to change trend in black enrollment
By Bob Elston

Declining black student enrollment on campus may have reached proportions great enough to finally move a vast university bureaucracy.
"(This crisis) has moved up the priority list, and that is where it will stay," said
Anne Rike, senior associate director of admissions and school relations.
Registration figures show that of this year's freshman class, numbering 2,866, only 3.8 percent are black. These figures are the latest in a trend that has seen the black freshman enrollment drop by half since 1980.
Many black student leaders agree that for years, admissions officials have talked about reversing the trend with new and improved recruiting efforts, but instead, they simply watched the trend continue.
"Admissions was not doing enough," said Howard Hobson, president of the (See Decline, page 7)

In early September, when most university students focus on such issues as rushing the right fraternity or sorority or worrying how the football team will do this year, one student was in France receiving top honors in an international violin competition.
Dorota Anderszewska, a sophomore majoring in music and a native of Poland, placed first after being judged by a panel of international music critics at
the second Francescatti International Violin Competition.
Anderszewska qualified for the event by winning competitions in China, Taiwan and Poland.
"Only winners from previous international competitions can compete, and from them only 10 people can compete in the second round," Anderszewska said.
She performed the Sibelius violin concerto, a Bach solo and a sonata (See Violinist, page 16)
