Profs lauded
Two professors at the University have been given awards for some
work they have done outside of the classroom. Louis Loeb, an assistant
professor in the Philosophy Department, has received a $2,500 summer
stipend from the National Endowment for the Humanities. Loeb is
working on a "book length manuscript" on metaphysics in Europe in the
17th century. Out of 1,611 applicants for the Summer Stipends program
some 230 receive the money. The stipends are intended to support in-
dependent and scholarly work in the, humanities and are awarded to
college and university teachers and others working in the humanities who
have proposed projects of "high quality and value to the humanities."
Mills Thorston, associate professor in History, has won the Jules F. Lan-
dry Award for the best manuscript in southern history, literature, or
biography submitted to the Louisiana State University Press. Thornton's
book, "Politics and Power in a Slave Society/ Alabama, 1800-1860," is an
analysis of the forces that underlay and motivated antebellum Politics
and society.
More crow
Well we made a mistake - everybody's human, right? Marian An-
derson, projects director for the Public Interest Research Group in
Michigan (PIRGIM) was erroneously identified as PIRGIM executive
director in a story on public interest lobbying, which run in Saturday's
paper. Actually, Alan Fischer is the PIRGRIM exec director.

They just don't make 'em
like they used to!
Remember all that jazz about it'being "what's up front that counts."
Well they were lying, or so it seems if we are to believe a recent study of
the nation's cigarette industry. According to the Agriculture Department
cigarette filters have been getting longer and the length of the column of
tobacco is getting shorter. In addition many of the super-long cigarettes
- those 120 millimeter jobs - are getting skinnier. As a result, the depar-
tment reports, "The manufacturers are now able to reduce tobacco
requirements substantially per 1,000 cigarettes."
"
On the outside.. .
A low pressure system is passing just to the north of us this morning.
It will bring clouds and rain showers through the area. Today will be
cloudy skies with scattered showers. The high will be in the 41 to 44 degree
range and the low will be in the low 30s. Tomorrow should bring partly
cloudy skies with temperatures around 450.

Nobody seems to know where Ted
Yemen is.
Yemen, former election director of
the Literary College Student Gover-
nment (LSA-SG) is being held in con-
tempt of the Central Student Judiciary
(CSJ) because he didn't show up at a
hearing for a suit arising out of last
term's LSA-SG election. Begin held in
contempt earns Yemen an academic
hold credit.
THE CSJ SUIT is one of four charging
that Yemen violated the free speech
rights of Jon Lauer, Stacy Herman, Ir-
ving Freeman, Mike Spirnak and
Jasper DiGuiseppe by removing their
allegedly slanderous campaign
materials without their permission
during the LSA-SG election.
Tom Potter, Chief Justice of the CSJ
said that he's "trying to act with as
much restraint as possible." But, he

said, "it would be nice if we could get in
touch with him (Yemen)."
Potter claims he was sent on
"A wild goose chase" by an
a'ssociate of Yemen's who gave
USJ three phoney addresses. The
associate denies that he gave CSJ
anything other than Yemen's phone
number.
NUMEROUS Daily attempts to con-
tact Yemen established only that his
phone had been disconnected.
Potter explained that Yemen was
being held in contempt after CSJ went
through a detailed procedure to be cer-
tain that he was aware that he had to be
at the hearing.
The office of University Vice
President for Academic Affairs Harold
Shapiro, said it had talked about the
matter and refered it to Virginia Nor-
dby, the University policy coordinator.
Nordby could not be reached for com-
ment.
