Sports Page 4—the Dally CoUegtan—March 2, 1982 Confessions of a Bulldog virgin By Richard LentJ Daily Collegian Contributing Writer I was a Bulldog virgin. But that all changed a few weeks ago. A friend of mine had an extra ticket to see the battlin' Bulldogs, and I decided it was about time to splurge, take a chance and see what 1 was missing. The first thing 1 noticed were the cheerleaders. Then again, when you walk around half-naked, it's hard not to be noticed. They did a great job, but they jumped up and down for everything. The coach will call a time out and all of a sudden you hear, "Give me a T, an 1, an M-E-O-U-T. Time out, time out, tiiiiimmmmme out." Sometimes they get a little carried away (so do I). The female cheerleaders have great legs, but I was disappointed that the male cheerleaders d idnl wear shorts. I bet tbey have great legs, too. The floor they jump up and down on squeaks a lot. Throughout the whole game it squeaked. It was hard to concentrate on the game when it sounded like a bunch of mice playing basketball. The court at the Sclland Arena looked a little bit rinky-dink. The wooden floor is supported by a bunch of two-by-fours underneath. That kind of bothered'me. I kept expecting the floor to collapse after someone landed from a jump shot. And those basketball players are great actors. Some of them are in the wrong profession. These guys will fall on the floor in pain when no one has touched Column them (the visiting team did this a lot, probably because they were losing and in pain). The fans were great, though. They kept yelling "defense," even when the Bulldogs were ahead by 12 points. Someone told me the crowd wasn't as crazy as they usually are. 1 imagine it's hard to get too excited when your team is killing the other team. I also noticed a tot of red shirts in the crowd. I don't understand that. The Bulldogs wear a white uniform. I guess if everyone wore white, it would look like a doctor's convention. There was a lot of dancing at half-time. First .the cheerleaders. Then a bunch of little kidsTrom a dance school. Then this six-foot dog. I thought I was at a basketball game, not Arthur Murray's. - Now the six-foot dog is something else. He* runs around more than most of the basketball players. Luckily, he's not as ugly as the Bulldog logo or he'd scare half the kids in the arena. My favorite part of the game was probably the beer vendors. I was impressed. At Dodger Stadium in Los Angeles, you have to walk back to the concession stand to get a Beer.

The Senate also announced the date of the upcoming elections and discussed at length the possibility of publishing a Senate newsletter. Senate members approved a S489 funding request from Ethnic Studies and Pan African Union to sponsor civil rights leader Rosa Parks to speak at the Distin- guised African-American Lecture and Awards ceremony scheduled for April 1. Lengthy discussion on a proper way to represent the minority papers ended when the Senate approved a line-item transfer request to partially finance 14 students to an upcoming journalism conference. The Senate opted to allow each of the minority papers the option of including one representative in the conference following several amendments that included taking a ratio of paid staff members from each of the papers and figuring how many from each would be allowed to attend the annual conference. Business Manager Terri Bimat of the Daily Collegian went before the Senate last week requesting an emergency line- item transfer of SI .000 to fund .14 students to the California Intercollegiate Press Association statewide convention. The Senate voted at that meeting to send the request to the Finance and Budget committee to find out why there were no representatives from La Vox, Uhuru Na Umoja and Hye Sharzhoom attending the conference. Petitions for spring elections will be available in the Dean of Student Affairs office beginning March 29 and the deadline for returning the forms is April 2 according to a letter submitted to the Senate by the chairman of the Senate elec tion committee. Elections for several Senate positions, including, president.and legislative and administrative vice presidents are scheduled for April 20,21 and 22. The Senate, sent to the Finace and Budget committee a proposal by Senator At-large Greg Garrett to start a Senate newsletter that would be distributed throughout the campus to inform students of Senate activities and reports from various committees. Senator Michelle Davis said the proposal would be 'a real good effort to publicize who we are." Business Senator Chris Kaufman was against the proposal, saying coverage of the Senate by the Daily Collegian was "adequate" and Senator David Wright said many of the reports would be 'boring* and some of the committee chairmen might not get them in and they might not always be interesting to the student body. 'If we look at this in a negative attitude, then the students will look at it in an negative attitude,* Garrett said. The Senate voted to send the proposal to to the Finance and Budget committee for review and possible input of other ideas. In other actions, the Senate appointed Martin Togni to its legal and legislative committee and asked representatives from the Delta Sigma Tbeta sorority to resubmit a funding request for a banquet honoring 23 high school students after senate members expressed concern over setting a precedent on funding organizations not previously financed by the Senate. The Senate also approved a $692 funding transfer request by the Rodeo Club to help finance stock rental for their rodeo scheduled for March 27 and 28 and sent a S7.625 funding request from the Jazz Band "A* and Concert Choir to the Finance and Budget committee for review.

A.S. begins '82-'83 budget process By Jim Graham Daily Collegian Staff Wriler Representatives from 34 campus clubs and organizations are applying for 1982- 83 funding from the Associated Student Senate, but many have found that the cloud with a silver lining often has strings attached. The best quality for the biggest quantity* of students is but one philosophy the Senate's Finance and Budget committee applies when doling out slices of the approximately $300,000 budgetary pie. said committee chairman Chris Kaufman. Initial budget hearings ended last Friday and the committee now begins the task of deciding which groups will get how much money. They must also prepare an initial budget recommendation to be passed on to the Senate. Representatives from the groups were called in for 20 minute interviews by the Finance and Budget committee to elaborate on their requests, usually on an item- by-item basis. The committee met six times in the last two weeks and completed the hearings Feb. 26. Following budget hearings, Kaufman said the committee then begins deliberations on how much funding each of the groups will receive. Some of the criteria in consideration includes the amount of the request, whether the program provides entertainment or cultural value, and if the program recruits new students to the CSUF campus. Another request consideration is whether the funded organization is a program, as in Semana de la Raza. or a service, like the student tutorial services. Another consideration the committee reviews is if the organization can receive funding from other sources, including state monies grants for the Child Care Center. 'We don't want to hand out everything.* Kaufman said. When all the budget requests have been reviewed, the committee draws up an initial budget recommendation to be presented to the Senate, where that organization can make changes and/or approve the initial figures. The next phase begins with cross hearings, scheduled for March 25, where organizations requesting funding can give their input if they are unhappy with their share of the budget. Following the cross hearings, the budget is again sent to the Senate for approval and signing by President Jeff Watson. It must then be approved by Dean of Stu dent Affairs Bill Corcoran and CSUF President Harold Haak. Kaufman said one of the problems the Finance and Budget committee has in divvying up the money is that while the dollar has been shrinking in value. Kaufman said the Senate's budget has remained unchanged. CSUF students currently pay $10 out of their registration fees per semester toward the AS budget. Kaufman said that last year a proposal to raise the Senate fee by $S was defeated when it went before a vote of the student body. The students did approve a fee increase to aid several of the smaller sports on campus. The Senate is currently working on a proposal to raise the Senate fee $2.
