The nemesis of no-knock
JOHN tDDINGS
Now that school's starting, everybody has a story, to tell about
his summer vacation. I've got
a real honey: I was a victim of
the "no-knock" policy.
It was a night In late June. I
was sitting In my living room
watching a Brady Bunch rerun.
Suddenly, a heavy boot kicked at
"Come In,' I said pleasantly.
An axe crashed through the door
and cut a three-foot split in It.
I thought, "That damn paperboy
never gives up!'
The door gave way and three
men burst Into the apartment.
They were all unshaven and poorly dressed. One was wearing
red clamdlggers tied with a rope
cord. Another was holding what
appeared to be a WW II Italian
military rifle
•perhaps I failed to mention It,
"but the door was unlocked,' I
noted, as two of them picked me
Isn't covered In my cleaning deposit." This warning must have
scared them, because they put me
down Immediately and handcuffed
me to the chair.
I heard the kitchen window
shatter. Three more men and
two German shepherds ran Into
the room. The man holding the
dogs was wearing a Nehru Jacket
and an L.A. Dodgers cap. All
three were shouting obscenities
much to saucy to mention here.
I blushed.
A helicopter could be heard

•WeD, If you go Into my bedroom you'll find an electric typewriter and a camera, and there
might even be some spare change
In with my cuff links."
Four men and a dog rushed Into
my bedroom and carried out
these objects. Three of them tore
the back of the camera, peered
inside, then threw It on the floor
and stomped oh It. The fourth
man hacked away at the typewriter with an axe. The dog was
chewing on my favorite tie clip.
This angered me. "Hey!" I
said. 'First you guys break Into
my apartment demanding heroin.
Then I give you my stuff and you
bust It up. How can you expect
to pet any money for a broken
camera and a smashed typewriter''     What   kind  ol   far out

Building. The telephone
number  remains 467-2266.
The Athletic Commission voted
last week to approve the$292,273
athletic budget proposed by Athletic Director Gene Bourdet.de-
spite reservations by commission member Carl Levtne.
Levine questioned the lack of
a built-in reserve fund In the
budget, telling Bourdet that "If
you run into a troublesome area/
you're going to have to make
cuts somewhere else to make up
for It.' He said that the $25,000 •
athletic reserve fund established
last year with funds from commercial activities monies Is
available only to augment deficits In Income, and not to make
up for over-expenditures.
Also, Levine said, the reserve
fund must be maintained at
$25,000. If the funds are used, he
said, they must be replenished by
putting In two per cent of student
body monies each year until the
$25,000 level Is reached.
The commission voted unani
mously to approve the budget
however, adding a provlalon tor
a S187 Increase in the sports
information department funding.
The money will be drawn from
other categories In the sports
budget.
Later In the meeting, commission member Dave Davenport
proposed a charter amendment
which would remove the current
maximum $25,000 level of the
athletic reserve fund, replacing
it with a minimum reserve level
of five per cent of the total allocated sports budget. All funds
in excess of the five per cent
minimum would be used to augment Income In the preparation
of annual budgets.
' The commission also authorized an Increase from »6 to *7
In the per diem travel rate for
spor»s other than football and
basketball, which now receive SB
per diem. The board also considered a plan to allow for ad-
Juetments and transfers of funds
between specific categorles-of
      the budget without the commls-
fundtng.     slon's authorization as long as
-" ' the overall budget is maintained.
Under the proposed plan, adjustments within 10 per cent of the
funding for a specific area would
need only the approval of the
bookkeeping department, while
adjustments In excess of 10 per
authorization.
Action on the proposal was
deferred so that a committee
could be formed to readjust specific budget Items to allow for
greater flexibility In transferring funds.
Before adjourning, the commission approved this fall's
Junior varsity basketball schedule and took this year's photography contract under consideration. Bourdet distributed
copies of the Intercollegiate Athletics insurance policy, which
has been renewed for the 1973-
74 School year.

Spclal sciences. $542; natural

In additional fees, plus two years '•
of salary at $7,944, or a total
of $16,104. An engineering graduate who receives a high starting
salary of $1,100 could lose more
than $26,000 during the two years
of extra college time.
Hull said even, students who
work while In school will lose
Income. The average business
administration student working
ten hours a week at $2 an hour
still could lose $10,000. Considering a high starting rate of
$1,000 for business administration graduates, the loss could be
more than $20,000 during the
additional two years.

hours a' week could lose $4,100
