The Toreros were shelled 16-6 by UCSB in Santa Barbara. Schramm (4 RBI) and Lippitt (2 RBI) had a hand in all six USO's runs. It was the second straight loss for USO (3-8-1) and the second consecutive time UCSB (11-3) scored 16 runs against the Toreros. On Saturday, the two teams split a doubleheader, USO winning the opener 7-4 before dropping the second game 16-4. USO starter Chad Halliburton, a senior trans fer from Fresno State, was assessed his first loss of the season after giving up five runs and walking two in two innings.

We do not endorse a "soak the rich" tax policy; such taxes are neither fair nor efficient. We should not impose increasing amounts of pain simply because someone is successful, but a flat-tax policy that does not consider the relative pain of the tax burden cannot be considered equitable. It is important to remember that all tax es are paid out of current or past income. In determining whether a tax is regres sive, progressive or proportional (flat), the denominator in the fraction is income. Regressive means the tax burden is heavi est on lower-income families, and many think this is unfair. The only major tax in America that is progressive is the current income tax. Al though many of the flat-tax proposals have merit, we would be more sympathetic to arguments if they also addressed the ineq uity of the other forms of taxation which bear disproportionately on the poor. In his first year in office, President Ron ald Reagan gave the American people the largest tax cut in our nation's history. The top marginal tax rate was reduced from 70 percent to 38 percent. Clearly, this gave a substantial benefit to the highest income earners. only individuals earning $62,700 or less many hours of joyless work is calculating At the same time, Social per year pay the same Security taxes ' rate.

Three new faces on S.D. campuses UC President Richard Atkinson is hoping to announce a new chancellor to succeed him at UCSD by April. More than 100 candidates are said to have been pared down to a short list of five. A potential blip on the horizon: UCLA Chan- cellor Charles Young has recently announced that he will retire in 1997. His is a position that some UCSD applicants may elect to seek. With Stephen Weber arriving in July to suc ceed Tom Day as San Diego State president ~d Alice Hayes installed as Author Hughes' succes sor at University of San Diego, our city's Big Three campuses will be off on fresh tacks in tandem.

USO Hosts "Walk On Water" Competition Can engineers and engineering students walk on water? The public can see that question answered at the "Walk on Water" competition that runs Feb. 24 from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. at the University of San Diego Sports Center 's swimming pool. Engineering teams from high schools, universities and businesses had to design human-powered buoyancy shoes footwear that will be used in attempts to cross USD's Olympic sized pool, said Ernie Kim of USD's engineering department. "The faculty has yet to walk on water, but the students do," quipped Kim.

Bart Miadich pitched seven innings, striking out five, to earn his first win of the season for USO (2-6-1). Brian Springer got his second save.

calls calls est est ~ ~ At California State University San Marcos, Renee Curry and Ter ry Allison have weighed in with a book, "States of Rage," which cau tions that self-reliance breeds self intolerance. "One of the things that our book points out is that taking responsibil ity is a loaded term," says Curry, an associate professor of writing and literature. Curry, and other detractors, fear that the personal-responsibility movement is just another excuse to turn society's back on the needy and others less able to control their lives. "A mentally ill person who'sjllSt eaten table scraps for a year ... ~ not equally capable of getting a job as I am," says Curry, "no matter ' · how much balance or personal re sponsibility that they take." Others worry that politicians are using personal responsibility as a club. The Republicans called their welfare-restriction plan "The Per sonal Responsibility Act," wording that earned House Speaker Newt Gingrich a Doublespeak Award from the National Council of Teachers of English. (The English teachers apparently saw the title and purpose as something of a con tradiction.) Those qualifications aside, Bran den believes that a personally re sponsible camper is a happy camp er. Try this, he urges: Look at an area of your life where you're not taking much responsibility; look at an area of your life where you are more responsible. ''Will you please tell me which area of your life works better?" he asks. Got it? Get it. Now, as Dr. Laura would say, "Go take on the day."

By BILL CENTER, Staff Writer alking across the University of San Diego campus with point guard David Fizdale can be Wa tedious exercise. Every 10 or 15 steps, someone stops USD's basket ball captain. There's a classmate and a teammate ... a campus administrator and a custodian . .. a professor and a fellow student. "We call Dave the Mayor of USD," says teammate Rocco Raffo. "People feel comfortable taking with Fiz about anything. He communicates in an effective way. He can talk to anyone ... and he talks to almost every one." Says USD assistant coach Randy Bennett: "He scores points for us without ever going on the floor. He brings to the university this special blend of leader ship and attitude. "I know the other side of campus views David as a resource." Each September, USD holds a special orientation program for inner-city students trying to make the grade in a predominantly white university. The past couple of years, David Fizdale has been the keynote speaker. "I don't tell them much," Fizdale said. ''I show them that if I can do it, they can. I tell them that this is a great university for white, black .. . anybody. I let them know my door is open .. . and that they can call me to talk. Some of them are reluctant. I guess I don't look inner city." ••• 2,3 avid Fizdale knows the inner city. He grew up on a street called Coming in West Los Angeles. It is a notorious area - the head quarters of a violent gang.

Furthermore, if two crimes that do not injure the individual or By way of comparison, being robbed in the street would have been society equally are punished equally, the perpetrator will not be the lesser of the two evils.

BRYJAK is a professor of sociology at the University of San Diego. The American public must also be held accountable for the dis parate sentences traditionally given street predators (high visibil ity, low profit) and white-collar criminals (low visibility, high profit). • ~ tr A survey of 60,000 people 18 years of age and older revealed that while both white-collar offenses and "common crimes" were viewed as serious, common street crimes were considered more serious. Causing the death of a person by knowingly selling bad cooking oil, or by a factory knowingly polluting the water supply, was thought of as about half as serious as stabbing one's spouse to death or killing an individual by planting a bomb in a public build ing. Until the perception of the gravity of white-collar crime changes, the certainty of arrest and the severity of punishment given convicted felons will remain, as criminologist Gary S. Green notes, "unimpressively low." Realistically equating white-collar crime and punishment would result in a significant reduction of these types of offenses in a rela tively short period of time. Young, impulsive, "present-oriented" · street criminals: often with little or no stake in society, comprise that group of people least likely to be deterred by the threat of some distant punishment. ( While these individuals certainly deserve to be punished, prison recidivism rates clearly indicate that a sizable percentage of them will continue to be criminally active. However, older, more rational, "future-oriented" business peo ple, who have much to lose (wealth and reputation) by arrest and incarceration, are probably the most deterrable people in society. By making and implementing the necessary changes so that pun ishment does in fact fit the crime, we will not only have a safer na tion, but one that is mo're just as well.

-P:- -+- period of re-entry and healing. It's kind of like a marriage that had a separation. At least we have the children in common." Several experts in conflict resolution yesterday said they have volunteered to help the district - the state's second larg est - move toward reconciliation. "Psychologically, there's a need to for give by those who felt they were hurt," said Dr. Philip Hwang, a professor of counseling at the University of San Diego. Hwang and others, including mediators with the National Conference, have agreed to lead staff discussions at schools where the wounds may cut particularly deep. Perhaps the sharpest schism is between the thousands of teachers who walked the picket line for several days and those who stayed in the classroom. Many teachers saw crossing the picket line as a betrayal, while those who contin ued to teach complain their striking peers treated them with deep hostility. Yesterday, some striking teachers came back hugging those who stayed, while others appeared guarded, if not openly ( aloof, toward their nonstriking peers. Hwang, who writes about forgiveness in his new book, "Other-Esteem," said that harboring ill will toward others can prove crippling if not dealt with head on. "If you do not forgive someone, you keep thinking about revenge. It occupies a lot of your energy," he said. "You end up thinking about avenging rather than the willingness to move on with your life." And forgiveness, he said, does not neces sarily mean togetherness. A person can forgive, yet still keep his or her distance from those that offended, he said. Hwang is teaming up with Social Advo cates for Youth, a nonprofit agency that works with schools, to offer conflict media tion sessions at district schools. The sessions offer teachers and other staff members a chance to express their feelings about the conflict and to try to bridge whatever differences arose. The local chapter of the National Confer ence, which promotes religious and racial harmony, began staging discussion groups at the invitation of schools yesterday.

Presidential Debate at USD: The Hot Ticket for 1996 The hot ticket event this year looks to be the Presidential Debate scheduled for Oct. 16 at the University of San Diego's ShileyTheatre. Ticket requests began pouring in right after the Jan. 29 announcement that USD was again selected as a presidential candidate debate site, according to university spokeswoman Kate Callen. While ticket allocations have yet to be determined, Callen says students will be given top priority. USD was selected as a 1992 presidential debate site, but the event was canceled. School officials are optimistic about this year's forum. "The students are tremendously .excited," says Callen. "Four years ago, interest in the news just skyrocketed. Students were buying three or four newspapers a day." USD names Kmetty as admissions chief

SAN DIEGO - Anthony Kmetty of Rancho Penasquitos has been named graduate admissions officer for the Masters of Business Admin istration and Masters of Inter national Busi ness programs at the University of San Diego's School of Busi- Kmetty ness Administra tion.
