THE DAILY EVERGREEN NEWS WEDNESDAY, DECEMBER 18, 2002 | 5 Students try out for reality movie Producers visit the Palouse in search of stars for spring break project

Albee Dalbotten Daily Evergreen staff A tropical breeze and attractive people are two good ingredients for a wild spring break. Add cameras and someone else footing the bill and it becomes crazy. Students from WSU and the University of Idaho lined the hall of Adams Mall waiting to audition for a spring break reality film Tuesday. The full-length film is being produced by Bunim/Murray Productions, which produces MTV’s “The Real World” and “Road Rules.” Reasons for auditioning varied, but for some, includ- ing Jameel Rayam, a junior sports management major, it was clear cut. “A free trip to Mexico, a chance to be on TV and lots of pretty girls,” said Rayam, who was auditioning with seven of his fraternity brothers. At 2 p.m., the three casting agents had seen 120 stu- dents at Shakers. Casting Director Stephen Blackehart expected to see about 300 students by 6 p.m. Though the final number of WSU students chosen to star in the film will be decided later, several students will do a TV interview as a call-back today.

However, the employees do take precautions. “We keep the racks of clothes lowered so we can keep an eye on the entire store,” Lang said. Dale Hammerly, owner of the Pullman Radio Shack, said he credits his few thefts to the loss prevention program taught to its employees. “All the employees are taught precautions to take, things to look for, and are just generally aware of what to be on the look out for,” Hammerly said. Whatever Hammerly’s doing, it’s working. 1 He says he sees only ⁄2 -1 percent loss of merchandise during the holiday season. The consequences for theft can vary. WSU Administrative Lieutenant Scott West said he sees many calls come in during the holiday season for theft on campus. West said some of the trou- bled areas include The Bookie, the libraries and the residence halls. But in the city, at Dissmore’s, Jassman said he has fined a thief up to $500. In most cases, Jassman sees the number of thefts at his store coming from college stu- dents. “They don’t realize it doesn’t look good on your resume when you have theft on your record,” Jassman said. “You really can’t get a high paying job if you have a record.” 12-18-02 07 sports 12/17/02 9:48 PM Page 1

Both sat on the bench for the final six minutes of the game. Bryant, guarded mostly by Kendall Gill, was held to four points in the first half. The Wolves, who led by as many as 22 points, never trailed. The Lakers couldn’t get much going inside.
