Modern pieces by world re- nowned contemporaries Saito, Azechi, Mori, Katsuda, and Maki comprise a group of original woodcuts, etchings, lithographs, seri- graphs and messotints. A selection of contem- porary Chinese works will be included in the exhibition and sale. Proceeds of the sale will benefit USD's "Seniors," a yearly exhibi- tion of selections in all media by graduating art majors. SAN DIEGO UNION NOV 2 9 1981 Torero Balance Stops UOP 90-64 (Continued from H-1) "If I noticed anything in making the jump from Divi- sion II to Division I, it was that the biggest differences in the levels were depth and the frontline play," said Brovel- h. "I felt we had been making progress in the depth. To- night was encouraging as far as the forwards were con- cerned." Some things about USO basketball never change. The Toreros played an attacking defense, switching frequent- ly from man-to-man to zone without so much as a blown assignment. On offense, the Toreros systematically attacked a Pa- cific club that was outmanned. In a match of wits, USO seldom loses to a team that it is also stronger than physi- cally. In a 5 1 ,2-minute run leading up to the midpoint of the first half, the Toreros scored 16 straight points to take a 24-9 lead. It was 32-14 when Brovelli started going to his bench, which initially sputtered, and 38-25 at the half. USD then exploded for 52 points after intermission. Outside of long-ranger bomber Jeff Andrade (9-for-19, all from at least 15 feet) and 6-7 forward Matt Waldron (16 points, including 10 on free throws), Pacific couldn't offer anything to match the Toreros. The 6-6 Jones led USO's scorers with 17 points. Roberts, his 6-7 running mate and California's leading junior col- lege rebounder the last two years, scored 13 points, neu- tralized Waldron on the floor and had eight rebounds while spending much of the night heads above._ veryone else. And in 6-8 center David Heppell, Brovelli has, perhaps, the perfect pivot to be playing between his active for- wards. In addition to scoring 12 points, Heppell is heady enough to spot a cutting teammate and kept both Jones and Roberts supplied with workable passes.

Not that USD was hurting in guard play. Rusty Whitmarsh had 14 points, five assists and tena- ciously dogged the ball on the defensive end of the court. Prunty got USD's first-half surge in motion with a pair of bombs. And fiesty junior college import Rich Davis over- came a spotty first half with 12 post-intermission points to take charge of USD's final surge.

Five Toreros fin bed in double figures and the one tarter who fell short, point guard John Prunty, was instrumental in both crucial USO point run . USO shot 63 percent from the floor and had a 33-22 edge m re- bounds. USO was paced by the forward tandem of Gerald Jones and Robby Roberts, which totalled 30 points, nearly half the Torero rebounds, six blocked shots and four assists.

SAN DIEGO BUSINESS JOURNAL to forced be borrowers who will refinance homes in 1982. The economist was not as optimistic when he discussed rea I (adjusted for inflation) retail sales. He sees a ..dis- appointing" Chris\mas season for retailers this year, but expects the numbers to improve early in 1982. Conversely, he pointed to continued strength in business fixed investment. "At least this sector has not been so dismal for the last two quarters," said Thomson. Lower interest rates and better tax incentives for business invest- ment~ are two reasons why this sector will remain st~ong through 1984, he said, especially as the supply-side policies of the Reagan administration take hold. Thomson emphasized his belief that given time, supply side economics will work. He said it was unfortunate that the program was so "growly oversold" in the beginning. Foreign trade, according to Thomson, "will continue to bounce around as it has been." He emphasized Positive feedback can aid productivity if specific prais.~ By Jane Clifford She also believes the boss's compli- ments can't come too quickly. action, ability, motivation and environment." But apart from the mysteriously scientific and psychological com- ponents in the workplace, performance is nothing more than behavior - and no matter what tag you use - it is simply the function of the consequence that it produces. Just as a child's behavior is molded by a variety of feedback techniques, so is the employee's attitude and job per- formance. Unfortunately, behavior modification in the workplace usually costs more time and money tl]an in the home, Pavett laments, unless manage- ment opts for "words of wisdom." But, she hastens to add, once verbal feedback is chosen as the most cost- effective reward for high performance, managers must distinguish one type from another, and reali7e the value of each in the employee', eyes. Pavett has determined that the sources of feedback are many: The organintion: the bosses: the co- cost-free incentive that makes people feel good while enhancing their pe rforma nee." The values of feedback, especially the verbal variety. were the focus ofa recent USD Update breakfast seminar Pavel! conducted at the Executive Hotel. "Productivity and Praise: Does a pat on the back really do any good?" was the title of the discussion, and Pavett's answer is "No!" "If I come up to you and pat you on the back and say 'Good job,' what does that mean'?" she challenged. Pavett doesn't deny it makes the worker feel better, but she believes specific, positi\c, performance-related feedback rates higher. Pavett is convinced that the public relations department head who hears, "1 he annual reports looks like a million dollar<" 1 . perhaps, belier-rewarded for the hours de,oted to the mmi- maga1inc, than b} hearing the familiar ..

Those things are very nice, but they really don't have too much motivation, because they are too far (spaced from the deed they reward) and they wear off quickly." Pavett's seminar on productivity and praise attempted to explore the use of positive reinforcement to enhance the quality of business relationships and, at the same time, stimulate motivation and performance. She examined several accepted theories and spoke of her research into them and others. "l want 10 take a brief look at some of the kinds of things (that can be used)." she explained, "such as management by objective, enhanced communication and transactional analysis.
