With President Bush and Sen. John Kerry resting up from the first round of debate, Sen. John Edwards and Vice President Dick Cheney will add their respective two cents to the debate forum at Case Western Reserve University in Cleveland, Ohio. The debate will be aired at the Titan Student Union this Tuesday. The first presidential debate, aired at the TSU Lounge last Thursday, was a welcomed opportunity for students to gain some
insight on the positions of Bush and Kerry for the November election. Associated Students Inc. provided food and drink and some students played pool in the background as others gathered around the television sets and began to listen to the two presidential candidates speak. The 90-minute debate was sufficient for some students to gain an opinion as to who was the better speaker. As each candidate spoke, students listened to what their plans were for the future of homeland security. Bush and Kerry also spoke about the ongoing war on terror and the protection of American soil. Many students said they walked away from the debate with opinions about who they believed succeeded in the debating process. Studentsʼ opinions varied from the candidatesʼ precise knowledge of
a specific subject to their physical movements when delivering their answers. Students found humor in the clashing of opinions by the candidates several times during the debate. When asked what mistakes Bush had made, Kerryʼs reply “Where do I begin?” generated laughter from the crowd. Students had a great deal to say about the candidates as the debate came to an end. “Even though Bush stumbled a couple times, I still think his policies are what America needs,” said Melissa Sordan, a first-year nursing student. “Americans need protection and I think heʼs the guy to do it for us.” Not everyone was enthusiastic about the plans Bush provided. Many said they felt the president should have been more prepared DEBATE 3
Camejo challenges voters Vice-presidential candidate urges non-partisan vote By ALI DORRI Daily Titan Staff
Ronald Reagan once called Peter Camejo one of the 10 most dangerous people in America. On Thursday, Camejo, Ralph Naderʼs vice presidential running mate, spoke to Cal State Fullerton students about the dangers of voting
republican or democrat. “I would never tell people I would vote for Mussolini over Hitler,” he said while on stage at the Becker Amphitheater. “I do think Kerry is smarter than Bush, but thatʼs not saying much.” Much of his speech focused on what he said was an “undemocratic monopolization of the electoral system” originally set up to protect slave ownersʼ interests. “The whole world looks at us and tells us we are weird,” he said. “We have a manipulated and controlled electoral system that makes people vote against what they believe in.” When Nader ran for president in 2000 he was accused of stealing
Group promotes freedom to read Previously banned classic novels read at CSUF campus By BRITTANY KUHN Daily Titan Staff
“It was a pleasure to burn” was the first line read aloud from Ray Bradburyʼs classic novel of suppression and defiance, “Fahrenheit 451,” at the Banned Books Week Read-A-Thon on Saturday, which lasted over eight hours. The book was chosen as a reminder of the once literal threat of book burning and as a symbol of the continuing war against censorship. In conjunction with Banned Books Week, from Sept. 25 to Oct. 2, San Jose Stateʼs Extended Education Program and approximately 20 other volunteers participated in the continuous demonstrative read that they hoped would make the fight for freedom of information public. Members of the Library and Information Science Students to Encourage Networking hosted the continuous marathon read from noon until 8 p.m. in the northeast corner of the Quad, adjacent to the Pollak Library. The first reader of the event, Ken Dowlin, is a professor at San Jose State and the associate director of the Southern California program at Fullerton. “Right now weʼre in a sea of change technologically,” said Dowlin, who was
a San Francisco city librarian and public director for over 33 years. “Ninetyeight percent of public libraries provide public access to the Internet. Itʼs resurfaced the issue. Book burning is over. Censorship is now much more subtle.” “The issue is your freedom of access to information,” he said. “We believe what you read is your own business.” Annie Knight, both a reader at the event and a San Jose State student in the process of getting her masterʼs degree in library and information science through the university extension program at Cal State Fullerton, helped organize the event. “Weʼre having people volunteer to read parts of the book until weʼve read the whole thing,” said Knight of the chosen novel, “Fahrenheit 451.” Knight said that Banned Books Week, which is observed during the last week of September each year, reminds citizens not to take precious freedoms, such as access to information, for granted. “I think thereʼs an ethical responsibility I have to promote and provide as much information as possible, regardless of content, to the public,” Knight said. “Itʼs not in anyoneʼs interest to judge what other people want to consume for information.” Marsha Schnirring, vice president of LISSTEN and chair of the banned books event, said the focus was on censorship and the importance of reading aloud in a community in order to deal BOOKS 3
votes from Democrat Al Gore, leading to Bushʼs victory. Forest Hill, Nader-Camejo campaign coordinator, said that opinion is baseless. “There is no obvious correlation, they just donʼt want democracy” Hill said. “There were also four other parties on the Florida ballot,” he said. Of those who voted for Nader, 25 percent were Republican and 38 percent Democrat. Two hundred and fifty thousand Democrats voted for Bush. Many Democrats donʼt see it differently this time around. Kerry, Clinton and others have urged Nader to drop out to no avail. Camejo said Democrats have gone out of their
way to keep Nader off state ballots. Californiaʼs ballot will not include Nader. Voters will have to write him in. Camejo said it is Kerry, not Nader, who is “playing spoiler.” “Something weird is happening in the United States,” Camejo said. “The majority of people voting for Kerry donʼt like him. This shows that our system is broken. Tens of millions of votes are being stolen from Nader by John Kerry.” He added that “the person who is in tune with America and the rest of the world is excluded from the polls.” Camejo said many potential CAMEJO 3

Arboretum ‘Crush,’ smashing success Wine and food help raise funds for two local organizations By CASEY RITTENHOUSE Daily Titan Staff
Wine was flowing and friends were mingling last Friday night at the Arboretum, presented by the Fullerton South Rotary Club. “Crush Time in Fullerton” was the wine and food sampling venue that catered to nearly 300 guests who purchased tickets at $35 each in order to raise funds for the Boys and Girls Club of Fullerton and the Arboretum. All of the proceeds from the ticket sales went to each organizationʼs general account.
An array of some of the areaʼs treasured restaurants and catering services wrapped around an open space near the Arboretumʼs Heritage House. The festivities included lots of eating and drinking, raffle prizes, a live Country-Western band and a tub of grapes crushed by participating restaurant employees. Doug Collier, owner of The Olde Ship pub and restaurant, said he has been involved with the event for a while, serving his traditional British dishes. “I like to support the community,” Collier said. “Itʼs just in the spirit of the pub to do so.” Guests of the event were able WINE 3

Police arrested transient William Iofi for the attempted rape of a Cal State Fullerton student on campus Sept. 14. The suspect is being held at the Orange County Jail with bail set at $2 million. Iofi, 41, was charged with aggravated mayhem, battery, assault, torture and sexual battery after attacking a CSUF woman as she was exiting a stairwell on the third floor of the Performing Arts Building around 1:32 p.m. “A transient entered the third floor of the Performing Arts Building, approached the victim and grabbed her in a bear hug,” said Will Glen, operations lieutenant of CSUFʼs Campus Police. “She struggled to free herself, screamed and was knocked to the ground. The suspect tried to kiss her. He bit her lip and seriously injured her.” The victim, who will remain anonymous out of respect for her privacy, suffered two vertical lacerations to her face and was immediately transported for treatment at St. Judeʼs Hospital, Glen said. “The suspect is not a student,
whereas the victim was,” Glen said. “It was just an unprovoked spontaneous act.” Officer Jesse Blanpied, a uniformed officer who responded to the call, was the first to question Iofi and dispatch a records-check. “I asked Iofi if he was a student and he said, ʻNo.ʼ” Blanpied said in his incident report. “I asked Iofi if he had business on campus and he told me he had none. I asked Iofi why he was on campus and he told me he was ʻjust here.ʼ” Although the suspect was carrying no weapons and apparently was not on any medication, Blanpied said, the records-check showed Iofi was on probation, had multiple restraining orders against him and had been arrested the week before. Of the seven witnesses to the crime, CSUF student Darin Martineau, a classical guitar performance major who was practicing his guitar in one of the practice rooms on the third floor, got to the scene first. Martineau said Iofi first came into the practice room prior to the assault and stood strangely in the corner and said, ʻSheʼs crazy, sheʼs trippinʼ,ʼʼ then left. “A couple minutes later I heard the girl screaming, ʻGet off me,ʼ” Martineau said. “I just started runASSAULT 3

JERUSALEM — Prime Minister Ariel Sharon pledged Sunday to escalate a broad Israeli offensive in northern Gaza, saying troops will remain until Palestinian rocket attacks are halted. Israeli officials said the offensive — in which 58 Palestinians and three Israelis have been killed — will help clear the way for an Israeli withdrawal. Israel poured 2,000 troops into northern Gaza after a Palestinian rocket attack on Wednesday killed two preschoolers in the Israeli town of Sderot.
Samarra victory encourages Iraqi forces SAMARRA, Iraq — Bloodied by weeks of suicide bombings and assassinations, Iraqi security forces emerged Sunday to patrol Samarra after a morale-boosting victory in this Sunni Triangle city, and U.S. commanders praised their performance. American and Iraqi commanders have declared the operation in Samarra, 60 miles northwest of Baghdad, a successful first step in a major push to wrest key areas of Iraq from insurgents before January elections.

Mount St. Helens sees second long tremor MOUNT ST. HELENS NATIONAL MONUMENT, Wash. — As scientists warned that an eruption of Mount St. Helens appeared imminent Sunday, eager tourists camped out along park roads, hoping to catch a glimpse of the seething volcano without being overcome by ash and smoke. A second long tremor early Sunday and an increase in volcanic gases strongly suggest magma is moving inside, researchers from the U.S. Geological Survey said. The mountainʼs alert was raised to Level 3, the highest possible, after a volcanic tremor was detected Saturday for the first time since before the mountainʼs 1980 eruption.
Nader to hit swing states; Kerry improves BOSTON — With polls showing a narrowing gap between President Bush and Sen. John Kerry, independent candidate Ralph Nader said Sunday that he planned to continue campaigning in key battleground states in the final month of the presidential election. In a Newsweek poll, the first taken since the debate Thursday night, Kerry was running even with Bush after having trailed him in the same survey last month. A Los Angeles Times poll of debate viewers showed favorable perceptions of Kerry rose 5 percent, but the survey of 725 registered voters indicated little change in overall backing for the two candidates.

Suspected thief dead in Long Beach LONG BEACH, Calif — A suspected thief was found dead shortly after he and an accomplice rammed a stolen truck into a check-cashing business to gain access to the store, then fled with cash, police said. The cause of death is unknown. Authorities said the two armed men used a white Dodge truck, stolen a week ago in Gardena, to crash through the glass front and an interior wall of the store Saturday. After snatching cash, they stole a Toyota van parked outside but crashed after being spotted by police. They then fled on foot. Compiled from The Associated Press

Nader supporters are trapped by the two-party system and think they have to vote Democrat in order to gain representation. In actuality they are just getting a modified Republican, Camejo said, and voting for Kerry is a vote for Bush because they donʼt differ on major issues that Americans really care about. “Donʼt vote for Kerry, donʼt vote for Democrats,” he said. “Write in ʻNaderʼ; letʼs save our planet, letʼs save our nation.” Why Kerry is running against Bush to begin with is a perplexing issue, he said. He mocked Kerry for giving 18 standing ovations during Bushʼs 2001 State of the Union address. “Itʼs hard for a man to go against his hero,” he said. “I hope [Kerry] saw his psychiatrist.” Brenda Gonzales, first-year graduate student and president of the College Democrats, said during an open forum exchange at the end of Camejoʼs speech that she was ashamed of being a Democrat throughout moments of his speech. “I feel like I agree with what he says, but I have hope that Democrats will do the right thing,” she said after the event. “I think people should listen to what [Camejo and Nader] have to say.” Camejo covered multiple issues from immigration to Iraq, saying that the system has been ingenious in how it handles those issues. He said that if politicians had a real problem with illegal immigrants they would send them all back. “No one proposes that millions of illegal aliens be removed, they just want them for cheap labor,” he said. He said that Bush invaded Iraq because he wanted its oil, and that the excuse of toppling a dictator was hypocritical. “Think of the hypocrisy. All we have ever done is supported dictators,” he said in pointing out
Americaʼs years of support for Saddam Hussein. He also called Iyad Allawi, Iraqiʼs interim prime minister, a terrorist for planning a bombing, which killed Iraqi children on a school bus while he was with the CIA. “Terrorism is OK if you agree with the USA,” he said. Camejoʼs visit was put on by CSUFʼs Campus Greens and Chicano culture club Movimiento Estudiantil Chicano de Aztlan. Jarret Lovell, CSUF criminal justice professor and adviser to the Campus Greens, said Camejo took the initiative to contact them about coming to campus. “We want students to discover more than two options on the November ballot. The most popular candidates are not necessarily the candidates with the best ideas,” Lovell said. “We donʼt want the candidate to be hidden in a room like the Democrats and Republicans want them to be.” The Campus Greens have not and will not officially sponsor any candidate because, Lovell said, their objective is to present platforms, not candidates and that voters should not have to settle for two similar platforms. Verian Wedeking, a senior political science major and Campus Greens member, said his club wanted to present a different yet very patriotic political forum. “We want to expand peopleʼs knowledge,” Wedeking said. “We want to show that politics shouldnʼt be scripted. Itʼs more of a town meeting than something thatʼs remote and scripted.” Nader ran as a Green Party candidate, but is running as an Independent this time because, he said, the Green label could exclude many potential supporters. Many Greens still back Nader, partly because current Green candidate David Cobb is playing a safe-state strategy that keeps him from campaigning and excludes him from the ballots of battleground states like Florida and Ohio. “This has upset a lot of people, including myself,” Lovell said. “If you are about change and creating a new democracy…you let everyone know about it. It shouldnʼt matter if itʼs Texas or Florida.”

to move from one table to the next to try tasters from the likes of BJʼs Restaurant and Brewery, Coletteʼs Catering, the Continental Room Reataurant, Heroes Bar and Grill, Florentineʼs Downtown Grill, Café Hidalgo Restaurant, Chin Ting Restaurant, Brianʼs Bar and Billiards, and many other volunteers. The tub of grape crushing, which was provided by River Star Vineyards, involved a contest in which guests had to guess how many quarts of juice was squeezed into a water jug. “The crushing was great,” said Tami Giffin, a server at Spadra Regional Italian Cuisine. “Itʼs exfoliating my feet.” Giffinʼs boss asked her if she would participate in the grape smashing. She said she was up to the challenge, but did not anticipate the fruit to be as chilly as it was. “My feet are really cold now,” she said. “Theyʼre still numb and I canʼt feel a thing. But it was fun.” Instead of crushing grapes, Nancy Vogt of Fullerton was tasting them in its liquidized form, as she stood at one of the many bar tables in the middle of the grassy locale. “This is my first time here and my husband and I were invited by friends who are with the Boys and Girl Club,” Vogt said.

with issues openly. “We often think of reading aloud as an activity you do exclusively with children, but our society has, way before books, a long oral history of sharing information.” At the event, an estimated 50 to 100 attendees came and went during the eight-hour-long read. They were handed flyers with a list of the 100 most frequently challenged books of 1990 and 2000, provided by the American Library Association. Among these books were well-read authors like Judy Blume, J.D. Salinger and Aldous Huxley. Schnirring said she wants students to “stop and think about the fact that you
can walk into the campus library and check out almost any of the books that are on the 100 most frequently banned list. Most are books that people read in classes here. Students take it for granted that somebody has had to defend their right to read those books.” Although students are more frequently turning to the Internet for factual information, Schnirring said she encourages students to recognize the value of fiction and exercise their right to read it. “What reading any kind of book does underscore is how powerful ideas are when they are captured,” she said. “You can go to that book 100 years from now and see how that person thought. The Internet currently doesnʼt have that longevity.”

when debating issues with Kerry. Some commented on the several times Bush repeated himself and said they found humor in his silence after certain questions were posed. “[Bush] just didnʼt seem to know what he was talking about,” said Nelly Escalera, a sophomore child development student. “I thought the stronger speaker was Kerry. He delivered his point very well; if anyone won the debate I think it had to be Kerry.” Polls later concluded what many students thought; Kerry had apparently succeeded in a stronger debate than Bush.
Vogt said she was delighted by all the event had to offer and that it was a relaxed atmosphere. “This is very good wine and the champagne with strawberries was great,” she said. “And Iʼm happy this is so casual and not all dressed up.” Dexter Savage, the president of the Fullerton South Rotary Club, said the event has been able to expand from a few people raising funds to a few hundred people. “The event has gone from just small wine tasting... to an entire outdoor restaurant,” Savage said. Savage said having the occasion at the Arboretum brings a greater awareness to all that Fullerton has to offer. “This is a beautiful location where the community can come taste wine at a place that is relatively unknown,” he said. “People can see that the Arboretum is one of our greatest assets [in Fullerton].” Eddie Hernandez is the athletic director of the Boys and Girls Club main branch in Fullerton and a student at Fullerton Junior College. He said he was very grateful for all the Fullerton South Rotary Club was doing to help support his organizationʼs programs. “[The event] helps the community know that the Boys and Girls Club is there for a good cause,” Hernandez said. “We are all here tonight for a common goal.” “Bush had a real off night,” said R. Sonenshein, political science professor. “It is harder to be an incumbent than a challenger. Bush had to defend himself.” Sonensheinʼs Political Science 100 class spoke about the debate during its Friday afternoon meeting. The consensus was that Kerry was the more prepared of the two candidates. Since Kerry seemed to do so well last Thursday, Sonenshein said, his expectations are going to be much higher for the next debate that airs Friday, Oct. 8. No matter the personal choice for president, students said they were interested in seeing what each candidate believed and their goals for Americaʼs future.

ning around the other hallway. I saw him on top of her and ran as fast as I could and rammed my shoulder into him and knocked him down.” As someone helped the victim into another room and retrieved aid, Martineau said he restrained the suspect, although, he said, he felt the suspect had become sedated and was no longer a threat. “I felt like I snapped him out of something,” he said. “Like he was in a trance and I woke him up. He got mellow and just sat there and waited for the cops and everything.” According to the report, medics and Fullerton Police arrived on the scene a short time later. Glen said the CSUF Police Department will implement its sexual response protocol, a support function that will help the victim get counseling services and medical exams, as a victim of attempted rape is, “a victim of not only a physical but a mental crime.” Courtney Salas contributed to this report.
