WASHINGTON (4)- A for-'
mer Chilean ambassador to the
United States and a woman col-
league were killed yesterday
when a bomb ripped through
their car as they drove past the
embassy he once occupied.
Killed by the blast were Or-
lando Letelier, 44, ambassador
from Chile during the regime
of the late Marxist President
Salvador Allende, and Ronnie
Karpen Moffitt, 25, who worked
with Letelier at a research in-
stitute. Moffitt's husband, Mi-
chael, was discharged from'
George Washington University
Hospital after treatment.

at the FBI's Washington field
office, said agents were check-

cost of Evelyn Wood.
"Their enrollments have been
good, their advertising is really
good," admitted Sussman. "But
if you saw something implied
as Evelyn Wood for half the

and Welfare prohibiting sex

of higher education.
Although recent MSA policy has
been to appoint one woman and
one man to the two student
seats on the board, past posi-
tions have often been filled by
two men. One of the student
seats is currently held by a
woman.
FOLLOWING debate on the
issue MSA members concluded
that student posts on the board
would be more influential if
held by one man and one wo-
man. Names of the two stu-
dents under consideration for
the post will now be submitted
to President Fleming for ap-
proval.

"lumental then submitted a
detailed outline of the structure
atd function of all MSA com-
mittees and called for the re-
cruiting of students to serve as
members. Positions are open on
all committees as are four seats
in the Central Student Judic-
iary (CSJ) which functions as
a student court to try infrac-
tions of student government
rules and to settle lawsuits.
A motion calling for a one
dollar fee with all student suits
filed with the CSJ failed follow-
ing a discussion on its legality.
The proposed fee would have
covered some of the administra-
tive costs of dealing with law-
suits.
