Those who are unfamiliar with
Tammy might say she is vain.
After all, what else do you call a
woman who stands naked on a
pedestal and talks about nothing
other than her body?
Actually, talking about her body
is Tammy's job. Tammy is a life-.
size Transparent Anatomical Man-
ikin (TAM) on display on the
fourth floor in the Exhibit Mu-
seum.
TAM's nudity goes beyond mere
flesh. On the right side of her
body. her muscles and nerves are
exposed. Her left side bares herf
skeleton. In front, her digestive
system is visible.
"Hello, my name is Tammy. It's
actually my nickname: I'm TAM,
a Transparent Anatomical Mani-
kin," she begins.
TAM speaks informatively for
ten minutes via a pre-recorded
tape which explains many partsI
of her body and their functions.j
As she names each part, it lights
up to show its location.j
The demonstration includes dis-
cussion of her skin, muscles, nerv-
ous system, digestive system, re--
productive system, and brain,
among other things.
Tammy concludes her presenta-
tion with a message that "your
brain and body are the most valu-
able presents your parents could
ever give you. More than wealth,
more than fame, this gift is yours
to care for and enjoy for a life-
time."

Attorney Gen-ral Frank Kel-
ley's recent ru-' against the ar-
bitrary cutoff unemployment
compensation for pregnant women
could possibly be "a significant
step", say state officials.
According to Assistant Attorney
General Coy, the ruling is signifi-
cant because it points out subtle
sex discrimination which is writ-
ten into state law.
The February ruling declared
unconstitutional the state statute
which denied a pregnant woman
unemployment compensation from
ten weeks before to six weeks .aft-
er childbirth.
Kelley ruled that the state
statute was a violation of the 14th
amendment because it denied
women equal protection of the
law by treating pregnancy differ-
ently than any other temporary
medical disability. He stated
"Such a law fails to consider her
willingness to work, her ability to
perform or her personal medical
safety.
Low income women are espe-
cially discriminated, against since '
they are denied money which is
necessary to their families, he
said.
Under the new ruling, the de-
termination of whether or fiot the
pregnant woman is available for
work is made by the woman and
her doctor. Coy explains "This is
a medical determination, not one
that should be written into a state
statute."
Coy sees the ruling as signifi-
cant because it recognizes that
"discrimination on the hagI@ of a

discriminatory statutes on the
books. Michigan is the only state
in which the attorney general has
issued a ruling declaIing the
statute unconstitutional.
Such statutes are currently be-
ing challenged in the Seattle area,
T U NTIL 9:00 but there has not yet been a court
ruling.
According to Jane Picker, a
Cincinnati attorney. the impact
of the Mihigan ruling on other
states will probably be minimal,
since generally, such rulings do
not have much impact outside the
state in which they were issued.
The ruling has yet to be tested
in court. If a discrimination case
were to come to trial, the court
could conceivably make a de-
cision which opposed the Kelley
ruling.

Introducing the 4-channel T-shirt,
the least expensive Fisher you can buy.

We're selling the new Fisher TS- 100 for only $1.
It's a 4-channel T-shirt, and a dollar is an incredibly
low price for it, since it's a $3.50 value.
But you don't even have to spend a dollar on it.
You can win it free, just by stumping one of our salesman
with any one of the twenty questions in this ad.
If you think this is some kind of con, you're

wrong. We expect our salesman to know most of the
answers. But all twenty??!!
Incidentally, you can pick up a copy of the
correct answers at the dealer listed below.
Salesmen are not allowed to look at the answers
while you're asking the questions.
That would be cheating.
