young people to "become leading cit- izens in tomorrow's world." To do that, Warren said, ''Those with resources have a special obliga- tion to put back some of it into the community." In addition to the $12 million to endow student scholarships and aid programs, $16.5 million will go to hire more faculty members and pro- vide them with travel and other study opportunities, and $2.5 million will form an unrestricted endow- ment. The university currently has a total endowment of $10 million. The rest of the funds will be ap- plied to campus building projects - $6 million to expand the campus law library; $7.5 million toward the cost of the new University Center, which already is open; and $2.5 million to convert the main thoroughfare of the campus into a pedestrian mall. An- other $500,000 will be spent for a child development center serving up to 60 2½- to 5-year-old children of USO students and employees. The law library expansion, which is being supported by almost every major law firm in the city, will dou- ble the library size and electronical- ly tie the faculty and students into a multitude of other law libraries and information sources, said Josiah L. Neeper, managing partner of Gray, Cary, Ames and Frye, and attorney toth,_

To do tha~ said Hughes, the uni- versity will put $12 million of the funds raised into investments that should generate about $1 million an- nually for student grants and loans. "We have not set aside any specific amount for minority enrollment, but if necessary we will commit all of it to that purpose," Hughes said. Supporting the drive to enroll more minority students, Hughes said that solutions to the problems beset- ting minority people in the United States "can be found by capable men and women whose minds have been well trained and whose hearts have been nourished with th spirit of ser- vice to their communities." An independent but strongly Cath- olic-oriented university, USO prides itself on offering students an educa- tion that goes beyond academics to imbue a sense of community respon- sibHity, Hughes said. The university has 21,000 alumni. Developer Ernest Hahn, a USO trustee, told several hundred people attending yesterday's announcement event that $21 million of the targeted $47.5 million has been raised private- ly. Members of the university's 38- member board of trustees have con- tributed $9.3 million. Campaign committee chairwoman Joanne Warren described the drive as a "new age" campaign aimed at generating the resources to educate

University of San Diego officials yesterday said they are prepared to make as much as $1 million a year available in financial aid to give more minority students the opportu- nity to attend the private university. The commitment came as univer- sity trustees and administrators an- nounced a $47.S million fund-raising drive to provide new buildings and a larger endowment for USO. "We want to enroll more minority students than we have been able to thus far. A diverse student body en- riches the educational mix," USO president Author E. Hughes said. "We're willing to devote a signifi- cant amount of our endowment - $12 million - to create an annual income that will let us do that," he said. Tuition and fees at USO presently are $8,550 a year, and more than 70 percent of the undergraduates receive financial aid from some source. Since 1984, a steady 12.5 percent of USD's graduate and undergraduate students (now totaling 5,660) have been from minority groups. Universi- ty officials would like to increase that level to about 20 percent within five to 10 years, said Hughes and Bishop Leo T. Maher, chairman of the university's board of trustees.

six rebounds. Bell and Danny Means each had 13 points, Strickland had 12. Burley scored 24 points and grab- bed six rebounds to lead Santa Clara (13-5, 2-3). Burley was five of six from three-point range and made all six of his free, throw attempts. "He's a solid player," said Santa Clara coach Carroll Williams. "He's also an excellent free throw shooter. We wanted to try to get the ball in his hands late." Williams didn't have kind words for the rest of his team. "I guess I can't complain too much," he sc1ici. After all we won but it's really frustrating 'when ev~ erything doesn't go well. We played very well for 30 minutes - we were very effective, and then we just stopped executing on offense and de- fense. You have to give USO credit, though. They could easily have thrown in the towel, but they didn't.

WCAC STANDINGS

But with 12 seconds remaining Santa Clara's senior guard Mitch Burley calmly sank two free throws to make it 67-64. Strickland made it 67-66 three seconds later by making two free throws, although he made the second one inadvertently when he tried to bounce the ball off the backboard to give his team a change for a rebound and game-tying field goal. "I tried to miss it; I don't know what happened," said Strickland, one of three freshmen playing a signifi- cant role for the Toreros. "I think we're startmg to develop a lot of ch~racter, starting to come together. We re really young, you know. It'll ~ke some time, because you don't Just walk into a Division I school and boo~. you're a Division I player" Still, last night's final score repre- sented improvement for USO, which h~d lost 64-58 at Santa Clara just six rughts before. In that game, the Toreros committed 26 turnovers

FACE IN THE CROWD: In Washington at a ball sponsored by the state of Indiana, Steve Garvey puzzled over a familiar face. "Don't I know you?" he asked. Amanda Quayle, 17, the vice president's cousin, nodded: "I've waited on you for 18 months at the Baltimore Bagel in La Jolla." NOTEBOOK: Rosemary Stack (wife of actor Robert Stack) is working out at Cal-a-Vie spa. She brought along last week's mail - including a "We've Moved" note from new neighbors. It's signed Nancy and Ron Reagan. ... Kudos to USD trustees for rais- ing nearly $21 million toward a $47.5 million capital campaign. Super kudos: The 45 trustees per- sonally put up $9.3 million. . ..
