Overcrowding plagues HUB By DANIELLE CHIARA Collegian Staff Writer On a typical day, the HUB is fre quented by 25,000 people, including 8,000 that travel through its eater ies alone. But that mass of students, facul ty and administrators is causing an overcrowding problem, especially at this time of the year, said John David Grebos, assistant director of the student union. All organizations are busy with memberships, finances and planning, and every one is studying, he added. Student organizations' requests for meeting space in the HUB are being denied, and they are being asked to hold meetings elsewhere. For the past three years, the Undergraduate Student Govern ment Academic Assembly has met in the HUB, President Emily Bahn said. But when members attempted to reserve a room at the HUB at the beginning of the semester for Monday meetings, the request was denied. Bahn said the group had to find somewhere to meet until a perma nent room was found in Willard Building. Kato Kaelin: Nicole Simpson predicted murder By MICHAEL FLEEMAN Associated Press Writer LOS ANGELES Nicole Brown Simpson once pre dicted O.J. Simpson would murder her with scissors and get away with it "because he's O.J. Simpson," Brian "Kato" Kaelin said in his deposition testimony. Kaelin also told lawyers that Nicole Brown Simpson believed her jealous ex-husband was spying on her, videotaping her and tapping her telephone. Questioned for three days earlier this month as part of the wrongful-death lawsuits brought against Simp son, Kaelin also testified that Simpson was upset when he returned from a dance recital hours before the June 12, 1994, stabbing deaths of Nicole Brown Simpson and her friend Ronald Goldman. The 717 pages of transcripts, obtained by The Asso ciated Press, have Kaelin painting a much bleaker pic ture of Simpson's relationship with his ex-wife than Kaelin gave at Simpson's trial. Simpson's attorney Robert Baker repeatedly pressed Kaelin on his apparently changing testimony, OKII • EAM • OM • TAM • OM • YAM • The Sisters of Theta Kappa Pi and 0 The Brothers of Sigma Alpha Mu n would like to congratulate the following people for Thon '96 - icc Q N = o Dancers Sally Hornick Jill Whyte Kern Connell Becky Abraham Janet Sterner Amy Podgurski Paula Hatch Jodi Reddick Jodi Shattuck Jason Cohn" Adam Sokotic Keir Al Jason Rotherberg Alike Blumberg Josh saragon • bared Kaplan 2 ¢ W 2 ¢ [-A = o 2 ¢ W Morale: Tara Bclledict Arriy PenLudi Wendy " - R)bkis Alida Mut/Off Jared Getwarg Eric Fistirnari v .

"Organizations should not reserve any more room than need ed, and the HUB should make sure rooms are available for students," Bahn said. "Space should be used effectively." But Bahn said the problem may also have been caused by the fact that she did not make reservations early enough. Reservation requests should be submitted at the earliest possible date usually about four weeks in advance, Grebos said. The earlier the planning for the event, the greater the likelihood the requests will be accommodat ed, he added. Another student organization was also asked to hold meetings elsewhere. "We are in a situation now where we essentially have the same amount of office space that we started with when the (HUB) was built in the mid 1950 s and over 400 student organizations," Poole said. "It does not take many organiza tions to gobble up the space we She said there was some confu- have." The Association of Residence Hall Students was asked to hold its meetings in Osmond Laboratory this semester due to the lack of meeting space, said ARHS Presi dent Maggie Kutzler.

"The organization represents a large number of students," Kutzler said. "It is not only inconvenient for students to attend meetings, but also for us when we need things from the HUB office." Both Thomas Poole, director of the student union, and Grebos said the demand for space has increased because student groups do not have to pay for meeting space or travel far from their HUB offices. Other factors in the over crowding may be the insufficient amount of office space and inade quate size of meeting rooms for many student organizations, Poole said. and at one point contended Kaelin was lying. Baker also raised the possibility that Kaelin was involved in the murders, asking him whether Kaelin's boots matched the bloody shoeprints at the crime scene. Kaelin said he didn't know but would try to find the boots he was wearing that day. Simpson, meanwhile, attended his ninth and possi bly final day of questioning yesterday. The former football star is being sued by the Goldman and Brown families. Kaelin testified that Nicole Brown Simpson often described Simpson as an abusive and jealous man who someday would kill her. "How did she say O.J. would kill her?" plaintiffs' attorney Daniel Petrocelli asked on Feb. 15. "She said with scissors," Kaelin replied The former Simpson houseguest quoted Nicole Brown Simpson as saying Simpson would escape mur der charges. "She had said that 'lf O.J. would ever kill me, he'll get away with it because he's O.J. Simpson," Kaelin said.
