There is no right or wrong.'' Schultze and Filner concur there are limitations to mediation, that not every dispute can be solved :vith the process. But, mediation does pro,ide an outlet for neighborhood, domestic and juvenile disputes, consu~er merchant and employee - employer problems and small claims and minor crimes. Among the sponsors of the mediation center in Mira Mesa are the San Diego County Bar Association and the University~n -----, -Tnethird sponsor, the Mira Mesa Community Council, has also put considerable time and effort into the center. Not only did residents help to get the mediation center off the ground, but many are investing their time to be trained as mediators in the center, said Schultze. At this time, there are 14 mediators. "I think probably the oveniding reason we are here is because of the interest in the community," she said.

U£1~~!-9~ :e"t Directors of a newly formed utility consumer organization voted last night to put legislators on notice that their misdeeds will be chronicled in newsletters read by as many as a million county residents. In a first action directly related to utility rates, directors of the Utility Consumers Action Network (UCAN) voted to send a letter to county rep- resentatives in Congress, asking them to oppose legislation that would omit consideration of San Diego in the reallocation of cheap hydroelec- tric power from federally owned dams. The 50-year contracts to purchase power from these dams - often cost- ing less than one-tenth what local residents pay for electricity - are expiring next year, and legislation in Congress to reallocate the power leaves out San Diego Gas and Elec- tric Co., said UCAN director Robert C. Fellrneth.

zation increases dues-paying memberships. Applications must be received by April 10. and the board will interview four or five finalists for the job April 25. UCAN currently has about 50,000 members paying $4 or more for yearly dues, and has raised about $300,000. "We can raise three-quarters of a million dollars in San Diego each year with enough publicity and peo- ple getting involved," said board member Robert Spanjian. The organization was formed to represent SDG&E customers in pro- ceedings before the PUC and other regulatory agencies. Temporarily housed at the campus of the Univer- sity of San Diego, UCAN is looking for rented quarters, preferably along · University Avenue or El Cajon Boul- evard near Interstate 805.

''We are in a position to write our representatives - Senator Wilson or whoever - and tell them: 'Guess what. The topic of our next newsletter will be what happened to this power and who is getting it,' " Fellmeth said. The information presumably would be included in the 825,000 bill- ing envelopes that the state Public Utilities Commission said UCAN could use to include fund-raising and other materials, because the public already is paying for the postage. ''The power of the lobby is in its numbers," said board member Fred Nagel. He suggested that votes of local legislators on the legislation be published in the UCAN literature for viewing of all local utility customers. The nine-member board, still with- out a full staff, voted to offer $30,000 to $35,000 and negotiable benefi~ to candidates for executive director, with bonuses if the consumer organi-

College students get advice on transfers ~~ors from more than 40 S~n Djeg2., and United States In- ternational University.

colleges and universities met with Southwestern students Tuesday during the annual College and University Information Day to advise on transferring to a four- year institution from the two- year community college. Students visited tables of representatives, asking questions about a•missions requirements, tuition and fees, academic pro- grams, housing, and financial aid. The information day was spon- sored by the Southwestern's Transfer Center, which opened in the counseling office last November. Other information sessions oc- cur during weekly appearances from representatives of local four-year schools, such as San Diego State, UC San Diego, Na- tional University, University of . ---- .

Edwin Messe Ill should with- draw his name from considera- tion for the po t or u .S. attorney general. Either t hat, or his boss should do it tor him. On on hand, Meese has done th r ight, albeit ri ky, thing. In calling for a sp clal prosecutor to Investigate the charges that he falled to report loans from people who later gained federal 11.ppolntments and that he was among the Reagan aides who got to sneak a peak at the pur- loin d camp lgn me of Jimmy Carter In 1980, Me se has taken the prop r steps to clear his nam. On the other hand, the Meese Investigation wlll merely plant seeds ot doubt about the Reagan administration. The evidence made public in Senate hearings has been extremely damaging. A peclal prosecutor's investiga- tion w111 drag th story out for months. If th prosecutor r - mains true to the trend, he would probably not exonerate Meese but declar that there is not sufficient evidence to prose- cute him. The attorney general, the top law enforcement officer In the land, should have a spotless record. Meese has pots on his record that even a special pro- secutor cannot wipe clean. S n Oleg ns mu t feel a cer- tain kinship to Meese because he 1 favorlt on - a resident of San Diego and a former law pro- fessor at the Univ slty of San Dle_go. .And there Is a certain irony In that the questions asked about Meese are similar to the ones asked about San Diego Mayor Roger Hed ecock - whether the mysterious "loans" they received and forgot to dis- close were really gifts from friends and whether those loans or gifts were repaid by political favors. Until March 14 the questions about Meese sounded like the usual political cannlbalisrr. that rears its head in confirmation hearings, particularly in an elec- tion year. But last week It was revealed that Meese forgot to disclose a $16,000 interest-free loan to his wife from Edwin Thomas, who later served as Meese's deputy and then took a government job in California. A variety of lesser indiscretions have also come to light. The post-Watergate reforms in the 1978 Ethics In Government Act requires top-level govern- ment officials to report all loans of more than $10,000 they or the members of their family receive while they serve the public - April 28 is popular Already three formal events are on the calendar, and there are no doubt more. The new Hotel Inter-Continental ballroom will be inaugurated with - what els - an Inaugural Ball. Betsy and Doug anchester (he's the developer who built the otel) designated the University of San Diego hool of Nursing to be the beneficiary of the first big black-tie benefit there. And big 1 th right word - Lester Lanin's orchestra will be on hand to play and the committee is hopmg for 1,000 guests Over at Hotel del Coronado, Jack Lem- mon, Tony Curti and producer/director Billy Wilder will be the big draws for the "Some Like It Hot" dmner dance. That, of cours , is the name of the movie m which Wilder directed Lemmon, Curtis and the late aniyn Monroe, With ome scenes bot at the Hotel Del. That wa made in 1958 and released m 1959. So 1t is the 25th anniversary of the movie that the sponsoring Motion ic- ture & TV Bureau of the Greater San Dlego Chamber of Commerce i celebrating. Pro- ce ds will e tablish a scholar hip fund at San Diego State University for telecommuni- cations and film students. It all begins with cocktails at 6:30 p.m., dmner at 7!30 in the grand ballroom, with music by "The Alum- ni" To get tickets, which are $100 per per- son, call Wally Schlotter at th Chamber of Commerce.

and for one year preceding that service. On the surface, It ap- pears that Meese has violated that act. While the crime of non-disclo- sure may not sound too terrible compared with the sordid trou- bles of other government offi- cials during the past decade, It is a serious matter. Forty-two law professors, including 11 from Harvard Law School, wrote to the Senate Judiciary Committee pointing out that other government employees have been convicted and Impris- oned on facts similar to those that have surfaced during the confirmation hearings. It Is ironic that the job of at- torney general opened up be- cause William French Smith de- cided to step down to help in the Reagan re-election campaign - something he has done in every Re gan campaign since 1966. Th Meese affair could very well be an Issue that would help open the door of the White House to a Democrat in Novem- ber. We would hate to see the pres- idential election decided on such a side Issue as the loans to Mrs. Meese. Reagan should be judged on ls overall record and his own performance, not his coun- selor's. If Meese were to step aside now, that might be possi- ble The issue, however, goes far beyond such trivialities as presi- dential elections. Certainly Americans have grown accus- tomed to forgiving minor sins among some of its leaders as ju t the same old politics as usu- al. In our view, however, the at- torney general cannot be a poli- tician-as-usual. He must be ex- emplary, or at least more exem- plary than the average Washington coattail rider. What may be overlooked In a White House aide may be unacceptable in an attorney general. If it takes an investigation by a special prosecutor to put the name of Edwin Messe III on the executive offices of the Depart• ment of Justice, then perhaps Meese's name does not belong there. :t.ieese's desire for vindication ls understandable. We expect that President Reagan will stand behind Meese as long as Meese wants Reagan behind him. But for his president's sake, Meese should scratch his name from nomination. And ls he won't do It, his pres- ident should do it for the coun- try's sake.

been cast from the saint's, they said. San Diego de Alcala, or St. Didacus, belonged to the Order of Friars Minor a group that distributed food and physic~) care, and also attended to spiritual needs. He spent several years in the semi- tropical Canary Islands aiding its residents. ' The s_aint's model was gynecologist John Wilhelm, a physician who was in San Diego temporarily on a mission for Project Hope. He is now in Grenada where he is director of Project Hope's medical service and education programs. "He's helping the poor - he's doing the same thing, ••Dominguez said of the doctor. . "I was telling Terry (Whitcomb), 'This 1s spooky.' " · Wilhelm remained in San Diego just long enough for Dominguez to prepare a ~ust used as a guide for the sculpture itself. He refused to be paid for modeling, but he agreed to have Dominguez prepare a bust for his parents. Dominguez described the model as a

" joy to be around." "John wa~ just real calm and courteous with an easy-going manner - the sort of person you don't find too often," he said. "He's a handsome man with beautiful h~ir, a ni~ely sculptured nose and a very k!nd looking mouth. His eyes were also kmd." Dom(nguez's sculpture of San Diego is sometlung of a departure from his usual style. He often works in the abstract, and he seldom consciously tries to interject a message into his work. The San Diego sculpture was a little different. "I was trying to create the feeling that San Diego was a kind person - the sort of person who was giving," he said. " I'm_ not trying to make people become more kind or more giving, but just to create a mood that maybe we should give a httle more - not only physical things, but of ourselves - to make life better for someone else." . San Diego's unveiling is at 3 p.m. Sunday, April 8, in front of the Copley Library.

Last year, the Toreros were 5-5, but more importantlr in Fogarty's first season at USD, they were 5-1 at their own Division Ill level. "We don't offer scholarships," Fogarty said. "It's ~11 based on financial need here at USD. As far as financial aid goes, our athletes are in the same boat with the rest of the students." The current success of the USD basketball program certainly won't hurt Fogarty's plans. People are starting to notice that other school in to"."n mo.re and more. the boat it is in seems to be floatmg quite well.

But when USD made the transition into DiVlSion I for the 1979-80 season, winning became a rarity. In fact, USO has not had a winning campaign since its Division II days. The team's success has generated some enthusiasm on campus, too. "People in general don't talk about the teams " said Rosemary Wolf, a USD sophomore from Fullerto~. "but now you hear talk all over.

.,T!R~~ited Tribune Sportswriter At the bottom of the hill, the ball team practices on what coac John Cunningham unabashedly calls "the best field in town." But up on top of Alcala Park, next to the tennis courts, where the roosting sea gulls keep the groundskeepers from working on an infield that has a very dangerous, brown-parking-lot look to it and an outfield that slopes drastically from left field to right, is where the women's softball team plays. "Yeah," says Kathy Whitaker, who along with Bridgit McGarry is the designated talker this day, "and you should see the gopher boles out there." "And the lights," says McGarry. "Look at the lights out there. It gets kind of dark out in left." Strange. since this bunch has the bright stuff. Smile , repartee, an understanding of the game. Last year this team had fun and won. It was 22-20 overall, but 15-1 in its own NCAA Division III. One player, though, was found to be below the mini- mum course load requirement, and the team was deemed ineligible to participate in post-season playoffs. Bad break for a good team. "At first, there was some bitternesss, but the girl honestly didn't know what she had done," McGarry said. "She was the most hocked person on the team when the news came out. We still hang around with her. And, anyway, we can take league this year and make the playoffs." This year, with hotshot freshmen pitch- ers Sally Christman and Lisa. Ures, USD hould be at least as good as it was last SD base-

er. "Collisions make the game fun." "It's part of the game." d ow you ve one your 10 w en you shde and the baseman can t throw the • b h .ou "Y kn ,

"Nab," said McGarry. "They were afraid of what me might have done to them, too." And so it goes with the Toreras. Aileen Kelly, a sophomore from Carmel, was the league in all of Northern California. Last year she sat out softball - "I wanted to get playing shortstop. One of her first moves was to take an enonnous chunk out of her third," she started to explain. "But it ended up being a knee-first slide," chimed in McGarry, the second baseman. Sliding badly is one thing, but they say they like to take people out with hard f t . 1 t 1 o p ay m a . bo l3- Id 1rs grr ys year-o a grip on school" - left knee against Michigan.

The thought of winning the Whitmarsh Memorial Bronzed Tongue Award doesn't phase this bunch. "We almost beat 'em last year," says McGarry, who at 5-13/4 carries around the I nickname Low, as in Low Bridge. "We al- ways give 'em tough games. We have a I reputation to uphold." Their chance comes next Thursday at State. This optimism - hubris? - is based on this year's first double-header against Michigan last Saturday. "We played as well then as we have at the ends of seasons in the past," Whitaker said. The Toreras lost 10-0 and 5-1. "But they're a good Division I team," Whitaker says.

In a league and season where it has been almost impossible to win on the road, all three WCAC visiting teams ~ame away with victories Thursday evening. In the two other conference contests, St. Mary's slipped past host Gonzaga University 72-70 to remam m a first-place tie with the Toreros at 7-3: and Santa Clara defeated Loyola-Marymount 80-63 St. Mary's shot 58 percent from the field while Gonzaga connected on just 38 percent from the floor. The Gaels, like the Toreros, won the game with good free throw shooting in the waning minutes. Gonzaga guard John Stockton led the Bulldogs with 17 points The Toreros raised their record to 16-9 They are 4-7 away from home St. Mary's is 12-14. Portland dropped to 1 9 and 10-16.

Gonzaga nipped the Toreros 60-58 in the WCAC opener for both clubs in January. St. Mary's beat the Toreros 79-71 in round one in :vtoraga. Four Torero players hit for double figures. Former Monte Vista High and Grossmont College standout Mike Whitmarsh netted a team-high 16 points to lead USO. He also grabbed seven rebounds and handed out six assists in 40 minutes of action. Whitmarsh, his East County Connection Anthony Reuss and guard Chris Carr are battling the flu . Reuss scored eight points and snared three rebounds while playing 29 minutes. Probably the biggest reason for this win was 0 the play of 6-foot-11 freshman center Scott Thompson. He tallied 15 points, hauled in six caroms, dished off five assists and blocked three shots as he also played the entire game. Al Moscatel eame off the bench to add 12 points and Mark Bostic chipped in 10 for the Toreros. Portland was behind late in the game and had to start foul;_ng the Toreros in hopes of getting back into the contest via missed three throws It didn't work.

Ore- gon State's A.C. Green and \m!~ot n Diego's Mike Whitmarsh must be mentioned somewhere, al- though neither really functions as a small forward. Best center - There aren't many good pure cen- ters In the West because many teams lack size and have to use power forwards In the pivot. Blair Ras- mussen of Oregon probably Is the best of the natu- ral centers; other good ones are Santa Clara's Nick Vanos, Washington's Chris Welp, Fresno's Scott Barnes and Fullerton's Ozell Jones. Best sixth man - Eric Booker, Las Vegas. He pro- vides Instant orfense off the bench, and is lndlspensl- ble because of his enthusiasm and team orientation.

Toreros: USD keeps share of WCAC lead Continued from D-1

Reliever Greg Bertrand allowed only one ·run to score from a none-out, bases-loaded jam in the sev- enth inning and freshman David Jacas belted a grand slam to help the University of San Diego upset No. 3- ranked San Diego State 7-6 in college baseball at USD yesterday. The loss snapped a nine- game winning streak for SDSU (18-2) and avenged an 8-7 loss USD (7-7-1) suffered to the Aztecs ear lier this year. Jacas' game-winning lam off loser Kevin Piper came in the fifth inning and wiped out a 5-3 Aztec lead. Bertrand (3-0), who re- lieved in the second, threw a bases-loaded wild pitch in the seventh, but he held the 7-6 lead by retiring the side on a strikeout, a popup and a grounder. SDSU's Chris Gwynn homered on the second pitch of the game, and the Aztecs grabbed a 5-0 lead with three more runs in the second inning and one in the third.

With 1:13 to go, Thompson bit two free throws to make it 57-52. Seconds later he fed Moscatel for a lay-in to make it 59-52. "It's about time I hit some free throws," said Thompson, who entered the game shooting just 47 percent from the foul line. "I've been in a little slump since the Santa Clara game (he's also been playing with a broken toe). This was a pretty good time to break out." "There is a chemistry with this team that any coach would love to have," said Brovelli. "We didn't play a great game. I thought we might have been feeling the pressure a little bit. "We made more turnovers in the first half (12, and 19 for the game) than we usu- ally make in a game. But when we were down by four at 48-44 we played as well as we have ever played. "Everyone seemed determined not to go down by six. We stay within range and do what we have to do. Some of it is uncanny. A coach bas to be proud."
