several events are already scheduled for the home. THEY JNCLUD a series of dinners for a new $100,000 USO fund-raising campaign and a reception for 1973 USO graduates, families and friends . On the northwest corner of the campus, the home was built on land pre viously owned by the Religious of the Sacred Heart but donated to USO with the consolidation of the university last year as a n independent Catholic college.

THE FIRST new building on the University of San Diego campus in nearly two decades is not only a home for the preside nt and his family, but a hospitality and entertainment center. Before 1971 when Dr. Aut hor Hughes, Jr. was named first lay president, there was no need for such a center. The priests who had served as president be fore him we re accom- modated in campus apart- ments. Alt.hough the Hughes fa mily moved in last week,

There is a long way for USO to go, but how can you lose with a name like " Flim-Flam Tech. "

Recruitment is the only way to improve a football squad and the coaches have to sell their programs to the prospective athlete. They cannot just draft talent as the pro- fessionals do. USD's footballers are ~t starving either. Several establishments outside of the hotels have given meal privileges. The food donors are Howard Johnson 's, Chart House, Sir George's, Hamburger House, Butcher Shop, Love's Bar-B-Q, Pacific Bar-B-Q, and Shakey's. Room and board extend over a seven month period coverin lrom Feb. to May and Sept. to Nov.
