It is funded from ASUO Street Faire revenue and the office of program development’s budget The Program Press has had little luck in getting local businesses to advertise because the vice president for program development. “The idea was started because we felt the Emerald was not giving the programs enough publicity," Green says. According to ASUO Pres C.J. Balfe, Emerald advertising rates over the past few years also are hurting the programs Most program advertising bud gets hasve remained the same during that time, he says.

Green says. The ASUO Executive is requesting $12,000 to publish regularly next year. Under the ASUO president's recommen dations, the amount would be subtracted from this year’s $82,000 Emerald subscription The Incidental Fee Committee approved $77,900 for next year’s Emerald sub scription and allotted $9,700 to the ASUO Executive's program advertising budget Monday in a 4-3 vote The ASUO hopes the Pro publicity should get more students involved with the programs, he says. The ASUO Executive office distributed about 3,500 copies of its four-page publication at several campus locations. The next issue is work for a monthly or bi-weekly publication next year.

During the hearings, the committee allotted $9700 to the ASUO Executive for program advertising in a 4-3 vote that was delayed from Friday's bud get hearings. The allocation increased the ASUO president's budget to $68,566, a 3 percent increase from this year’s $66,440 budget. It is not unreasonable to fund more money to promote pro grams considering the large amount of money being allocat ed to them, said IFC member Marc Spence The executive office s primary function is to promote student programs because the office would not exist without programs, added Sheila Schain, ASUO budget director, IFC member Bart Hill said there were many rough spots in a program advertising publica tion issued Monday, and the request is too high for a new request. The committee does not know if more advertising is needed, added Jeff Nudelman, IFC vice chairer. Some traditionally funded cultural items were eliminated during the Native American Student Union hearing. The IFC eliminated $785 for cash prizes and blankets given to dance winners at the program’s annual Pow Wow event. The cut accounted for most of the 11 percent decrease from this year’s $7,256 budget. N ASU was allocated $6,495. The IFC also approved a 9 percent cut for the Foreign Student Organization. The program received $7321, a $727 decrease from this year’s $8,048 budget. The committee approved a 2 percent increase for SEARCH, an alternative education pro gram. The program was allocat ed $7,047, a total of $111 more than this year’s $6,936 budget. Psychology Club was allotted $401, which was $11 less than this year's $412 budget. Costa Rican charged with forgery A Costa Rican citizen was arraigned in Lane County District Court Monday on a charge of forgery and assault after Eugene police arrested him Saturday in a University residence hall. Sgt. Rick Allison said Jose Daniel Montes DeOca, 25, was charged with four counts of first-degree forgery, passing bad checks and assaulting a Campus Security officer while resisting arrest. Bail was set at $56,000, said Allison. Security officers answered a call at 12:30 a m. Saturday from a student who said he had seen DeOca in Sweetser Hall. When the two officers arrived, DeOca became violent and resisted their attempts to detain him, according to Allison. Officer Dennis Myers was treated at Sacred Heart Hospital for human bite wounds and other lacerations. DeOca was also arrested last fall for forgery and assorted campus thefts and burglaries, according to police. DeOca jumped bail before his trial, and police issued a wanted bulletin for his arrest. Allison said DeOca reportedly stole cameras, jewelry and money from dormitory residents last fall. Police expect to file additonal burglary char ges.
