Conservatives move after funding Nader rushes to USD to defend CalPIRG

registration time. Under the current USO system, students must apply for a refund ; 50 of the 3500 students did so last semester. " The ASB does not dispute CalPIRG's worth ," says Vincent Guil in, ASB vice president and a cand idate fo r president. " All we are d isputing is the current agreement." Gu ilin 's sentiments a re echoed by Scott Brown, also a candidate fo r president and YCSC chairman . He di savowed a quote in Vista, in which he allegedly said YCSC's aim was "to end ASB fu nding of CalP IRG and to have Ca lPI RG removed from campus." At least o ne ASB official believes the referendum campaign is being conducted for t he po litical gain of its leaders. "They're making a big deal out of it so they can get elected," says Linda Morales, secretary for student services. "As an ASB officer, I don't feel it's legitimate to use ASB funds to defeat a proposition," she added . Morales, a CalPIRG member, was the only ASB offi - cial to vote against having the referendum. More than 450 people attended Nader's Sunday evening speech, giving the consumer advocate a stand- ing ovation when he fast appeared. Nader exorted students to "develop a perceptual independence" as consumers. "You have to start with a higher estimate of your own significance," he declared. Students have formed the backbone of the CalPI RG movement statewide for most of the past decade. Student fees from dozens of California campuses fund Ca IP IRG proJects throughout the state, giving CalPI AG greater independence than most consumer organizations. Nader stated before the speech that Cal Pl RG would fight to keep its funding from USO because, "CalPIRG is part of a broader effort of students to ave an impact on society "

A campus-wide referendum , ti med to coincide with student body e lections next week , is th reatening the future of CalP IR G at USO. The referendum wi ll decide the rat~ of a $2 semester fee charged USO stud ents to support the public- interest group. The fee, wh ich can be refunded at the st udent's request, prov ides $9500 to suppo rt the USO cha pter of Ca lP IRG and it s parent San Diego chapter. USD's student government (ASB) voted 15-1 to place the referendum on the bal lot, to take an official stand against CalPI RG, and to form the Young Con- servatives to Shaft Cal P IRG (YCSC) committee. The YCSC, which consists largely of ASB officials, received S600 of student funds from the ASB, of which $200 was used to buy a full-page ad in the student news- paper, Visra. In response, CaIP IRG quickly scheduled a Nader visit to the USO campus this past weekend. Nader had been on a speaking tour of the country that included a stopover in Los Angeles, enabling the San Diego Cal Pl AG to grab him for an appearance to buttress their cause at USO. It was a 1972 Nader speech at USO which insp ired the formation of their Ca IP IRG chapter - then the first in the state. At least three USO student politicians claim credit for starting the campaign against CalPIRG. Two of the three are running for ASB president on the same ballot as the Cal Pl AG referendum. Current ASB president Flint Lewis agreed the cam- paign was against the funding agreement. "We have nothing against CalPI RG as an organization; they've done a good 10b, and have provided a great social er11,ce," he •.iid "We feel we have our hands tied by the ASB of nine years ago." Lewis said the ASB rejected replacing the current negative-option plan , with the plan used at UCSO, where students ca elect to pay the Cal Pl RG fee at
