Page 2-Saturday, September 9, 1978-The Michigan Daily 'U' security guard's death due to cyanide; suicide By SHELLEY WOLSON Investigation continues on the suspected suicide case of 19-y.ear-old University of Michigan campus security guard Kathleen Willsie. Willsie was found dead on the steps of her post at the Museum Annex Building on August 28. Although the final autopsy is not yet official, cyanide poisoning was deter- mined to be the cause of death. "It seems that there were several places along her route where cyanide is available,"isaid Detective Jerry Wright. Police Chief Walter Krasny said Willsie's death was most likely a suicide but that there was no final con- STUDENTS furnish your room or apartment at GOOD PICKINS previously loved merchandise " TABLES " CHAIRS " KITCHEN UTENSILS " PLANTS " KNICK KNACKS " BOOKS " DISHES " PICTURES and MUCH MORE LYNN MON-SAT 11:40-5:30 331 S.

The suspected cyanide vial is still being checked for conclusive fingerprints. Wright said around ten days prior to Willsie's death, Willsie reported a chemical spill to the Department of Safety and was then found unconscious. "The Department felt that she could have caused the accident as she was found in a closed room locked from the inside with the lights on. It seems suspicious in nature," Wright said. Willsie worked for State Securities Services, a private firm. One security guard noted that Willsie had told fellow guards of several threatening calls she had received before her death. Wright said, "the girl did indicate to the Department of Safety a week before her death that she was receiving these calls. But based upon her interview with the Depar- tment, they concluded no credibility to her statements and it seems to be an imgaginative thing." The guard added, "She had a lot of personal problems-I really think it was a suicide. She got so much atten- tion from the chloroform, I think she decided to try it again., Wright also indicated that on the night Willsie died there some dispute as to whether she should have been working. "Apparently someone recommended that she not work earlier that evening. She appeared irrational. But later she was sent out anyway," Wright said. But a State Securities official disagreed. "This has no truth to it at all. She was in good humor before she was sent out, laughing and joking. Otherwise we would not have sent her out. I'm unaware of anything prior to that," said State Securities Services Manager Raymond Pastula.

" 21 tniac FtIoestival:A'sa nainliisondspa By RICHARD BERKE t The bearded, balding man sat parked before a table downing beer after beer while he introduced Ollie Olson to a group of friends. "Ollie's the strong, silent Nordic type," he declared, failing in an attempt to keep his companion from sliding off the chair next to him. Olson's inability to sit up straight couldn't be traced to too many brews with his buddy. Rather - fittingly enough given his surroundings - it had to do with his heritage: Ollie's a lifesize foam rubber puppet who stopped in at yesterday's opening of the sixth annual Ann Arbor Ethnic Festival. SPONSORED BY the Multi-Ethnic Alliance and Downtown Businessman's Association in cooperation with the city, the festival features booths representing 20 nationalities which are spread down Main Street between Huron and William Streets. Exhibits are staffed by members of local non-profit ethnic groups who use their proceeds for University scholarship funds and group functions. The inan with the rubbery friend couldn't decide whether he came from English, Dutch or Italian stock, but his blond and blue-eyed pal was on display by the Scandinavian Club of Ann Arbor as a caricature of the Swedish stereotype. WHILE AL GALARDI OF the Italian American Club of Washtenaw County was aiming to sell 1,600 homemade sausage sandwiches, Ludmile Sadlo of the Russian American Association of Detroit was pushing her piroshki, donuts filled with ground beef. "A beer with it will go swell," the Russian-born Sadlo told a customer. "I know you will come back for another." While some braved yesterday's sweltering afternoon heat to sample beers and buy artifacts, festival-goers didn't come in large numbers until about 7 last night, when temperatures fell and the work day ended. Kitty Wallace, chairwoman of the fair, estimated that 15-20,000 people will have attended the festival by closing time at 11 tonight. Ann Arbor Congressman Carl Pursell and Mayor Louis Belcher were among those sampling yesterday's fes'tivities. WITH ENTERTAINMENT ranging from the Polish Kalisz Dancers to Greek Hellenic Dancers, most festival- goers had no trouble finding a song or dance to their liking. But not everyone found something with which to identify. "Some people sort of get into this kettle and don't have anybody to associate with," said Midge Hildinger. "THERE ARE A lot of mongrels in this country," added her husband George, whose German family dates back more than three generations in Ann Arbor. The Hildingers suggested that more dancing - from jazz to the Hustle - be included in the fair so all people can have something to relate to. Long-time Ann Arbor resident Dennis Murray said he never misses an Ethnic Festival because, unlike the annual Art Fair, it is an authentic event. "I don't think the Art Fair is really for art anymore, it's become institutionalized," he maintained. "This festival probably will too some time. i i s a i "W HY DO THE HEATHEN RAGE?" Psalms 2:1 and Acts 4:25m ,.. This column has been appearing in several Saturday newspapers for sixteen years. Probably the two Bible pas- sages most often quoted, the ones the truth of which have most often stated, and the ones expressing the truth we have sought especially to make application of, are Matthew and Luke chapters 4 and verses 4, and the last three verses of the Book of Ecclesiastes 12:12-14. We quote them: From Mat- thew and Luke "MAN SHALL NOT LIVE BY BREAD ALONE BUT BY EVERY WORD THAT PROCEEDETH OUT OF THE MOUTH OF GOD." From Ecclesiastes: "And further, by these, my son, be admonished: of making many books there Is no end; and much study is a weariness of the flesh. LET US HEAR THE CONCLUSION OF THE WHOLE MATTER: FEAR GOD AND KEEP HIS COMMANDMENTS: FOR THIS IS THE WHOLE DUTY OF MAN. FOR GOD SHALL BRING EVERY WORK INTO JUDGEMENT, WITH EVERY SECRET THING WHETHER IT BE GOOD, OR WHETHER IT BE EVIL." The passage quoted from the New Testament are the first recorded words spoken by Christ after His baptism by John The Baptist, and The Spirit of God was seen descending upon Him in the form of a Dove. Surely the Creator of Life, The Preserver of Life, and The Redeemer of Life is qualified to tell us what is necessary for life and warn us against the wiles of the Destroyer of Life, Satan, The Devil! Here Christ was speaking to the Devil who was tempting Him to disobey God! Doubtless one of the greatest causes of the "curse and confusion" upon us and the world today is due to those who call themselves Christian but have utterly failed In making a reasonable effort to get familiar-note we did not say understand every word-with the entire Bible: "Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of God." May we suggest that the young, the mid-. die-age, and the old even if you are "seventy-eleven and more," begin at Genesis 1:1 and read some every day, pray- ing and looking to God to "touch your heart" and shine His Light into it by His Inspired Word. Alm at seeing how much of "every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of God" you can get familiar with before Mr. Undertaker "calls for your carcass!" There is no telling how much sincere action like this might affect your Eternity, and that of others. Christ said "To him that hath shall be given, but to him that hath not shall be taken away that which he seemeth to have." Lack of use in the long run results in lack of possession. Racial imbalance in AZ schools (Continued from Page 1) However, a suit can legally be initiated by the U.S. Civil Rights Commission. Claudette Nelson, formerly in the state Board of Education Office of Im- migration, said of the 28 school distric- ts, 20 have one or two racially isolated schools, and 25 of the 28 have fewer racially isolated schools than Ann Ar- bor. Saginaw has 33 isolated schools. REGARDLESS OF these statistics, Pot- ts said he feels that "Ann Arbor is in a comparable position to other school districts in the state." Dr. Robert Mosely, administrator of the Ann Arbor Board of Education feels Ann Arbor is "quite a bit ahead of other districts." He stresses that the head start is due to extensive research done on the desegregation problem over the past few years. Moseley made a conjecture that by the end of October a Citizen's Commit- tee will be discussing alternatives to meet the guidelines. Such alternatives might include busing, re-drawing boundaries, or other methods of desegregating schools which have been identified. According to Potts, an ad- ministrative team has done research on racial imbalance and plans to establish a citizen's committee to make recom- mendations. The first such committee was established in 1963. Moseley said he feels that emphasis should be placed on student achievement and not "on the number of particular kinds of bodies in a par ticular school. The Ann Arbor district is not flagrantly violating anything. Ant the impaction of schools which are im balanced are not inner city schools They have good facilities." Exactly one year ago, Ann Arbor School Board members discussed ap- pointing another committee of thi type. Several proposals designed t eliminate segregation were defeate then, leaving the district without a school desegregation policy. P. O. BOX 405, DECATUR, GA. 30031 EMU teachers threaten strike (Continued from Page 1) University Relations Wayne Douglas agreed that the question of faculty's role at the university is the major issue at stake in the bargaining. "It's essentially a question of the union wanting to have contractual authority to make several decisions. It's a matter of say," Douglas said. SHOULD the professors strike, Doug- las said EMU would do "the best we could to continue as normal as possible operations" for the 19,000 students attending the university. Neither McCracken nor Douglas cite money as the major obstacle, though salary raises are still one of the disputed areas. "There is money on the table - I'm not denying that. But it isn't all money. *DISCO *JAZZ * BAILET' *MODERN AT DANCE SPACE 314% S. STATE Schedule & Fees Posted On Door or Call 995-4242 for information If it was only the money, we wouldn't b headed for a strike," McCracken said. THE UNION is asking for an 11 per cent raise while the university is offering a five per cent raise or $1,000, whichever is greater for a given professor. McCracken "said the union and the university "will be working at it (an agreement) as long as we can possibly endure," before the Tuesday midnight deadline. But she doesn't expect the two sides to come to an agreement. "We're moving in circles. I really do (predict a strike). They (EMU bargainers) are sitting back and not moving and I'm not moving either. "My whole attitude is if I'm going down the tube, I'm going down it for a damn good reason," McCracken said. McCracken said a partial poll of the EMU professors showed 80 per cent in support of a strike. EMU faculty struck for a single hour in 1976.
