I fr id a y Campus services' fate up to legislators The following is last of a series about how private enter­ prise legislation could ultimately affect state-operated agen­ cies — specifically Arizona community colleges and univer­ sities. Today, the State Press examines the possible impact of four recommendations which have been presented to the Arizona Legislature by a committee representing the in­ terests of private business. , By Mead Summer Staff writer Four proposals submitted to the Arizona House of Representatives may decide the fate of a number of services offered by the state’s universities and community colleges. The Private Enterprise Review Commission, formed to ex­ amine alleged illegal competition by the state agencies Arizona against private industry, issued the proposals to the House, recommending they become law. . Arizona State University Joe Castillo, a member of the commission, said complaints were received by the commission from various types of businesses. V o l. 6 5 N o. 5 0 “We evaluated the complaints we received, submitted a list of recommendations to the House, then introduced four proposals based on our recommendations,” he said. © C o p yrig h t, S ta te P re ss, 1962 The recommendations, part of a 13-page report, dealt with restricting government activity in providing numerous ser­ vices at state universities and community colleges, as well as other state agencies. The commission condensed the 28 recommendations into four proposals, each dealing with different forms of state competition. The first proposal, which has become the most controver­ sial, would eliminate many services provided by universities and community colleges and replace them with similar ser­ vices to be provided by private businesses. The withdrawal deadline for the Fall 1982 semester is Castillo said the commission decided that by providing the Thursday, Dec. 2.

No fall semester withdrawals or registration transactions will be accepted after Dec. 2. Schedules and billing statements for students who submit­ ted course request forms during the period of Nov. 1 to Nov. 9 will be distributed Nov. 29 through Dec. 3 on the second floor of the Memorial Union. The hours will be from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m., with the exception of Dec. 1 and 2, when the hours will be9a.m. to6:30p.m. Schedules not picked up on campus (hiring this period will be mailed to the local address on Dec. 6.

If they do nothing, the bills w ill be rammed through. This bill deals directly with the quality of life on cam pus.' ■ Unfair competition Last of a series the chamber originated the idea of creating the commission, it had not envisioned the bookstore issue being the central factor of the commission. “The bookstore issue has taken the spotlight away from the bill as a whole,” he said. Augherton also said a strong showing of opposition by university students could have a large part in whether the university policies are passed by the Legislature. “The students have to make sure their rights are not infr­ inged upon,” Augherton said. “If they do nothing, the bills will be rammed through. This bill deals directly with the quality of life on campus.” A second proposal deals with the alleviation of competition between the state government and private enterprise. Another would prohibit school districts from providing day care centers. Castillo said such centers take potential business away from privately owned centers. The final proposal would make the commission permanent. However, Augherton said that rather than supporting the final proposal, the chamber will introduce its own proposal nailing for the establishment of a Private Enterprise Board with other members. “It would be a more responsible entity which would not on­ ly be receptive to the businesspeople, but equally attentive to the policies of state agencies and universities,” Augherton added. Some action probably will be taken when the first regular session of the 36th Legislature begins Jan. 10. Castillo said he doubts the proposals will pass in their currentform. “The art of legislation is compromise, so some changes will probably be made,” he said. “ But parts of what we pro­ posed might even be made stronger.” Augherton said there will have to be compromise if the pro­ posals are to be acceptable to all parties involved. Although the chamber proposed the creation of the com­ mission, Augherton said the chamber does not agree with the commission’s ideas. “We (the chamber) believe that if the state can (provide services) cheaper and more effectively than private business, they should be able to do it,” he said. Augherton said the proposals will likely become “a political football” in the upcoming legislative session. He also said “the chamber probably w ill not lobby in favor of the commission’s proposed legislation. ” However,- Augherton could not say whether the chamber would lobby against the proposals. Castillo said if the legislature accepts the proposals, the new university policies would probably go into effect at the beginning of the 1983 fall semester. He said he was unsure when the other proposals might become law. r • Moneymaker Neeb Hall Film Series reeling in record 450 percent profit By Sandy Sistek Staff writer The Neeb Hall Film Series has made a financial turnabout so far this year by increasing profits 450 percent over last year, according to Dave Polen, film series director. Polen said the attendance for the film series has doubled that of previous years' and a profit has been made on every movie. “We have been getting close to 1,000 people per weekend at­ tending the movies,” Polen said. “In previous years, 500 peo­ ple was considered a good weekend. Polen attributed part of the success to better scheduling and a good combination of pop and classic films picked by tn film selection committee. The campus community also has contributed great support to the film senes, he said. Polen said improved advertising also has added to the series’ new-found financial success. . ___ . “Neeb Hall always had good movies but there was not good advertising,” Polen said. “We have ads in th e State Press and have banners on the mall to help with our publicity. Polen said more than 90 percent of the people who attend the films are students. The tickets are sold for $1.50 witn stu­ dent identification and $2.00 without identification on tne aay of the film. \ Polen said 35 films are shown per semester in the 500-seaf theater. The films are shown on Friday, Saturday and Sun­ day evenings. ^ ^ »L , . J Polen said the two kinds of films shown are classics a popular. He said Neeb Hall originally had shown cultural and foreign films but gradually scheduled more popular films. “W eare trying to show quality films not seen at any other theater in the Valley,” he said. • “We have a substantial amount of foreign films and classic rums but we won’t abandon popular box office hits. We had our first sellout since 1977 showing ‘The Blues Brothers,’” he s&id* He said the new, popular releases cost $750 to rent and the older, classic films C06t $200. D Polen said Neeb Hall has sponsored premiers for three films this semester for Columbia Pictures before they were released to Valley theaters. The films were “Tempest,’ “Split Image” and “Missionary.” “Ghandi” , Columbia’s biggest picture in five years, will be shown at Neeb Hall in January as another premiere film. Polen said he is trying to get refreshments for the movies but a problem exists. “We were all set to get popcorn, soda and candy but three days before our first movie, Bob Gilson (management facilites analyst) called and told us food was not allowed in an academic building,” Polen said. "We have had a lot of re­ quests for refreshments and I want tg see if we can work out an appeal of his motion. ” Polen expressed concern about the quality and repairs of equipment used at Neeb Hall. Projector failures have caused movie delays for as long as five minutes, he said. “I am very discouraged with the way repairmen casually treat our repairs,” Polen said. “People in the audience blame the projectionists, yet the problem lies in the faulty projectors.” Page 2 State-Press Friday, N o v e m b e r 19, 1 9 8 2 stale press natio n /w o rld GOP leaders tell Reagan tax cut won't pass Company pleads guilty to Mexican bribery scheme WASHINGTON (AP) — Congressional Republican leaders told President Reagan Thursday he could not get the votes to win passage of a speed-up of next year’s cut in income tax rates, as some presidential advisers have proposed to spur me still-ailing economy.

HOUSTON (AP) — International Harvester Co. pleaded guilty Thursday to a federal charge of conspiring to bribe of­ ficials of the Mexican national oil company. In a plea bargain with federal prosecutors, the Chicagobased heavy equipment manufacturer pleaded guilty to violating the 1977 Foreign Corrupt Practices Act in exchange for a $10,000 fine. Elmer Johnson, general counsel for the company, said in a statement read in court that the company was pleading guil­ ty because it could not afford an extended period of litigation and “wanted to put the matter to rest.” U AW, Chrysler to resume talks TW A slashes transcontinental air fare DETROIT. (AP) — The United Auto Workers and Chrysler Corp. said Thursday they are reopening talks in an attempt to end a strike by 10,000 Canadians and work out an im­ mediate new contract for 43,200 U.S. employees. The Canadians, who have been on strike for two weeks, are demanding an immediate pay raise, which Chrysler says it can’t afford. Earlier this fall, Chrysler workers in the United States made the same demand and rejected a tentative con­ tract over the issue.

(AP) — Velsicol Chemical Corp. will spend $38.5 million to clean up three Michigan sites and settle government pollution claims under an agreement announced Thursday. Michigan Attorney General frank Kelley and Valdas Adamkus, the top regional administrator of the U.S. En­ vironmental Protection Agency, said the settlement was the largest of its kind in the nation. The chemicals, including the insecticide DDT and fire retardants PBB and Tris, were dumped in a county landfill and at the site of the old Michigan Chemical Co. plant in St. Louis, Mich., about 45 miles north of Lansing, he said.

LEMON ST A S p e c ia l Ú ffe r Fro m End of Arizona's teacher glut predicted ASU Career Services specialists are predicting record numbers of school age children in Arizona by 1987. Unless plans are made now, Arizona could be caught short of teachers for those children, according to Robert Menke, ASU director of Career Services, and Raymond Castillo, assistant director of Career Services. The predictions are based on statistics from the Arizona Department of Health Services and the Bureau of Vital Records and Information Services. “Arizona can expect, based on in-state births from 1971 to 1981, over 30,500 more children in our schools by 1987 as com­ pared to 1982,” Menke said. “What we see happening is that many women bom at the peak of the baby boom in the 1950s are only now having children. These are the career women in their late 20s and early 30s.” By such reckoning, Maricopa County will need 700 more teachers by 1987. “The time has come to dispel the-myth of a glut of teachers,” Castillo said. “Arizona no longer is preparing record numbers of teachers.” A S U S t u d e n t s ..

However, this time the illicit drug hits closer to home as it implicates 10 members of the Phoenix Fire Department — two of whom are captains. Their involvement with the drug will not be cheap. The 10 firemen have been suspend«! without pay pending a depart­ mental investigation, and face maximum sentences of 15 years in prison and a $25,000 fine. It is time that people realize the price is never cheap when dealing with drugs — even one as widely accepted as cocaine. It should be clear that cocaine has no benefits other than momentary gratification. The re­ cent sentencing of former NFL star Eugene “Mercury" Morris to 20 years without pro­ bation for possession of cocaine is testimony. One thing should be clear, cocaine use has permeated every profession in our society. Recent exposure proves that the drug is not limited to Hollywood jetsetters. Doctors, lawyers, politicians and scores of other pro­ fessionals have been identified with cocaine. Where there is demand, there is supply. The U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration reported in March 1981 that illicit cocaine entering the country has increased from 19 metric tons in 1977 to 51 metric tons in 1980. It was reported that treatment for cocaine abuse increased more than that of any other drug. Federal agencies report that the treat­ ment for cocaine abuse has increased 500 percent from 1975 to 1980. Over that period of time, cocaine use tripled for the 18-25 age group and doubled for those over 25. To ensure convictions, law enforcement agencies are building strong cases against suspects. For example, this week four peo­ ple were convicted of operating a cocaine distribution ring in Arizona and six other states. They were convicted on a total of 38 charges. The Phoenix firemen were indicted on 37 counts of cocaine transactions as the result of a six month investigation. On Wednesday President Reagan declared a war on drug trafficking. He said 1,000 new investigators and 200 new pro­ secutors will be assigned to fight organized crime in an attempt to curtail trafficking. It would be erroneous to say that cocaine is worth its weight in gold — gold is selling for approximately $412 an ounce while co­ caine sells anywhere from $1,900 to $2,500 an ounce. However, the cash price is the cheapest part of the bargain. No monetary figure can calculate the price of one’s career or life. Richard Dreyfuss’ acting career could be over as he faces a possible 10 year sentence for possession of cocaine. John DeLorean has destroyed what was left of his career and reputation by attempting to purchase 100 kilos of the drug. Actor/comedian John Belustri paid the maximum jjrice, as co­ caine, combined with heroin, ended his career and his life earler this year. Iir Florida, where most cocaine enters the countryr 56 people died from cocaine over­ doses lis t year. In no way, can these costs be worth any amount of euphoria or “prestige" received from using cocaine. 'f The problem wired to the use of cocaine is the failure to recognize the severity of the crime. When one reads that the opinion leaders of a professional society are using the drug, somehow its use seems more ac­ ceptable. The problem lies with society. Apparently society is looking at a fine line. Cocaine usage has spread among society’s leaders and governmental officials to the point where those who make the laws could be the ones who are breaking them. Is it too hypocritical to think that many of those pushing for the conviction of the Phoenix firemen could be users of the drug? It is true that cocaine use has reached epidemic proportions. Earlier this month, four gospel singers were arrested in Califor­ nia on charges of possessing cocaine. Lord have mercy! Rental service benefits students Editor: In Wednesday’s article regarding the impact of private enterprise legislation on residence hall services, Private Enterprise Review Commission member Joseph Castillo said that the University should not be1allowed to provide ren­ tal items to students iiving in residence halls. He justified this recommendation by saying, “It’s not right for taxsupported institutions to ‘skim the gravy’ so to speak, and not let the taxpayers get any benefit.” , Mr. Castillo has obviously overlooked the fact that most ASU students are taxpayers. Many of these taxpayers are currently benefiting from the ASU Housing Depatment’s ren­ tal program — one of the programs the proposed legislation would eliminate. In the rental program, students living in residence halls can rent small refrigerators or television sets for only $27 a semester, five-tier bookshelves or small tables for $5 a semester, and other items at very small rental prices. I called several appliance rental shops to see how their prices compared to those offered by ASU, and was astounded at the difference in fees. Prices ranged from $35 to $72 per semester for refrigerators, and from $48 to $180 for portable black-and-white televisions. Residence hall students can currently wash and dry one load of clothes for 55 cents; off-campus laundromats can charge between $1 and $1.25. ^ Obviously, the ASU Housing Department’s rental program is benefiting a number of Arizona taxpayers: the students who utilize the program are saving a great deal of money . It is ironic that a successful, money-saving program which benefits tax-paying students might be destroyed by legisla­ tion designed to ‘‘benefit taxpayers. ’’ D id iD e llis Senior Joumalism/Public Relations Printing rebuttal to DeCosse letter Bookstore fulfills 'public service' When reading Mead Summer’s “unfair competition” arti­ cle dealing with university bookstores, I was surprised that a proposal to limit school bookstores’ products was even con­ sidered, much less under debate in the Arizona House of Representatives. Joe Castillo’s argument that “underwear and stuffed animals have nothing to do with education” is true. However, the Private Enterprise Review Commission’s proposal was notjmly to provide goods valuable to a student’s education,* but also to “fulfill the publip service mission of the univer­ sity.” How are they defining “public service?” If the “public” is the campus community, and if the campus com­ munity wishes to purchase underwear and stuffed animals, it would seem that the “public service mission” was being fulfilled quite efficiently. I don’t see how the products cur­ rently supplied by the bookstores deviate from the commis­ sion’s definition of proper school bookstore supply. The com­ mission’s first proposal can only harm students. However, the commission’s second proposal is a bit more malicious, inexcusable E ditor: I was annoyed by the rebuttal you printed in response to the Steve DeCosse letter on the Pershing II Missile System. Mr. Wilhelm pointing out that “mindless rhetoric” is a “con­ tradiction in term s” (a phrase I’m sure he coined) has no relevancy to the content of Mr. DeCosse’s perceptive letter on the Pershing II. I can understands communication major trying to find some way to fill his time, but your printing of the response was malicious and inexcusable. Joe Meier Junior Psychology sensible. Turning the school bookstores over to private in­ dustry may well improve their efficiency. Doug Hanson’s thought that the private enterprise would cause the prices of items in school bookstores to rise contains a few flaws. First, while private enterprise does strive for profit, raising prices is not necessarily a guarantee of higher earnings. The mere fact that private bookstores are raising a fuss over this issue proves the bookstore business is competitive. To stay afloat, a private bookstore will have to provide a level ofservice equal to or greater than his competitor. P art of this service may include lowering school bookstore prices to competitive levels. In any instance, the bookstore must cater to the needs of its customer—the college communities. Overall, turning school bookstores over to the private sector is bound to benefit both students and business.
