Localgroups run candy screening The Michigan Daily-Saturday, October 31, 1981-Page 3 EMU faculty get pay hik By ANN MARIE FAZIO As a service to little trick-or-treaters and parents, the Ann Arbor police Ex- plorer Scouts, with the help of 'Mc- Donald's restaurant, will examine Halloween goodies children have collected, looking for evidence of foul play. Parents can bring children and candy to McDonald's restaurant at 2000 Stadium from 6 to 10 p.m. today, where 2 scouts and an Ann Arbor police officer will check candy and other snacks with metal detectors, looking for pins, needles, razor blades, and other foreign objects, said scout Jeff Bennet. They also will check for treats that may have been tampered with. "WE ARE trying to extend a courtesy to people so they at least have a chance for us to check the candy," said Ann Arbor Police Captain Kenneth Klinge, *i who is in charge of the program. City police have conducted Halloween treat inspections the past three years, Klinge said. During that time there have been only minor in- cidents although problems have been reported throughtout the country. "I hope there will be none here," Klinge said. "Anybody that would do something like that has got to be sick," he said. "I hope we don't have any of those in Ann Arbor." MARK STANGL, McDonald's manager said the restaurant is par- ticipating in the program because it is a family restaurant. "We are always interested in trying to better our relationship with the community," he said. The restaurant will provide free coffee for parents and toys for children. Explorer Executive Robert Svoboda said r McDonald's has been "Very cooperative in community services." Approximately 600 faculty members will receive a 5 percent across-the- board increase in salaries at Eastern Michigan University. Eastern Michigan's Board of Regents approved an agreement with the EMU chapter of the Amnerican Association of University Professors on Oct. 28 which provided for the increase. "IT IS VERY encouraging and cer- tainly a major accomplishment that the administration and the AAUP were able to present an agreement to the Board of Regents that responds to the fiscal reestraints currently upon the university," EMU President John Por- ter said. "The accomplishment will enable the university to focus attention on a num- ber of other critical matters which have been held in abeyance for several mon- ths," Porter said. The salary increase is retroactive to September. The AAUP agreement also calls for a salary incentive supplement of $225 per faculty member to be given at the beginning of the faculty members tenure. Also, for the 1981-82 academic year, faculty members recognized for meritorious achievement shall receive merit certificates in lieu of merit bonus payments.

"We have sold retail or distributed wholesale 800 Nixon masks since last May, the start of the season," said David Bertolino, 28, from his family's Little Jack Horner Joke and Magic Shop. "That's much more than we ex- pected. We had to have more Nixon masks aired in from France." THE NIXON sales compare with 300 isk buyers l Reagan masks, and about the same number for Elvis Presley, said Ber- tolino. "We're really disappointed in Reagan this year, considering he is the new president," he said. "We're going to have 400 or 500 left over." ONLY ONE mask sells as well as the Nixon model, which emphasizes the former president's ski-slope nose and dark eyebrows. It's an anonymous, pop- eyed man wearing a bandana over his nose. It's called "the bandit," Bertolino said.

As night fell, strong searchlights were turned on and the atmosphere became tense as Swedish troops and Soviet navy men silently watched each other over gunsights at close range. One coast guard of- ficer who came close to the sub said, "It looks so unreal, it's like a war movie." A SWEDISH OFFICER:. and an interpreter visited the sub three times during the day but the Soviet commander, Pyotr Gushin, refused requests to go aboard a Swedish ship for questioning. The sub, with an estimated 56 Soviets aboard, went aground, Tuesday in a restricted area near the Karlskrona naval base on the Baltic, 300 miles south of Stockholm. Swedish officials responded by ordering increased helicopter and jetfighter surveillance of the coast and sealing off the area around Sweden's main Baltic naval base - the object of what was believed to be the, submarine's spy mission. "We know they have ships waiting outside our waters," said defense staff spokesman Bertil Laggerwall. "We have troops watching the islands. This is the first time Sweden, and perhaps the world, has had a situation like this." SWEDISH DEFENSE Minister Torsten Gustav- sson called the incident the most serious one of its kind since the end of World War II. The crew of the sub, described by Swedish experts who inspected it from the outside as specially modified for intelligence missions, was believed to have fuel, food and probably water for at least two weeks. The sub also was in radio contact with its home base and a Soviet destroyer hovering at the territorial limit with a few other Warsaw Pact ships, officials said. They added that the sub was able to run its diesel engines to charge the ship's batteries. Two battalions of elite Swedish marine anxd paratroop commandos were stationed on nearby islands to reinforce the iron ring around the sub. The area, normally totally restricted for foreigners, was also cordoned off for all Swedish civilians except some reporters. Break-in suspects caught The Ann Arbor police arrested two suspects in two separate campus-area break-ins, they reported, recovering a $400 gold bracelet and a bicycle. Robert Bow, of Ann Arbor, was arraigned yesterday on charges of possession and concealing stolen property. He allegedly broke into a room at the Law Quadrangle, 551 S. State, Sept. 24, taking the bracelet,. a briefcase, an AM- FM radio, a cassette recorder, and a gold chain. Police arrested him after spotting the bracelet in the Ann Arbor Gold Exchange, 216S. Fourth. Lamark Curry, 28, of Ann Arbor, also was arraigned on charges of possession of stolen property. He allegedly stole a bicycle after he unlawfully entered an apartment building on the 900 block of S. State Sept. 25. He was arrested after the victim saw him riding the bike through the Diag Oct. 7. ALPENA (UPI)- Voters in the Alpena approves school millage bankrupt Alpena school district ap- proved yesterday a millage renewal measure which will ensure . the reopening of schools next month but. turned down a proposal for additional mills. "We've declared that the renewal measure passed by 1,050," said an elec- tions official who noted 12,000 people cast ballots. "The second measure went down by 1,650." THE SUCCESSFUL measure, reject- ed by voters three times in the past, will generate $14 million-enough to allow the reopening of schools in the 6,800- student district. Failure of the additional mills, expec- ted to bring in about $1.2 million, means the schools will operate without buses, athletics, elementary music, library privileges, hot lunches and ex- tracurricular activities, officials said. About two-thirds of the district's 18,000 registered voters marked ballots in the millage election. The renewal measure had called for a continuation of a $20.25 per $1,000 assessed valuation and an increase of $3.45 per $1,000. STATE OFFICIALS said the district, which declared itself broke and closed all its schools Oct. 16, can fulfill state attendance requirements if it reopens as early as Nov. 3-the tentative date set for classes to start again if the millage passed. "I believe the Alpena schools will be able to provide the 180 days and 900 hours of classroom instruction that the state requires," said Phillip Runkel, state superintendent of public instruc- tion. "I was hoping that the voters would approve both millage requests," he said. "It is now the responsibility of the Alpena superintendent and the board of education to pull the diverse factions in the community together." Yesterday's election was the first of the four to split the request for renewed and additional taxes. Superintendent John Taylor said that was done not to force rural voters to accept the ad- ditional levyto support transportation, but to appease those who only suppor- ted the renewal.

Beginner Instruction Care facility monitors animal experiments - 2 (Continued from Page 1) literature, the experiments - involving the injection of soap, perfume, and other products directly into the eyes of albino rabbits - cause inflammation of the iris, inflammation of the conjun- ctivae, and a great deal of pain to the rabbits. "Many toxicological technicians have expressed strong feelings against the test, especialy in those instances where the rabbits scream when the test substance is introduced into the eye," the literature reads. EFFORTS TO stop the Draize Test have met with some success. Revlon Corporation recently donated $750,000 to The Rockefeller University to finance a study to develop alternatives to animal testing of cosmetics. Liska-Stevens said the inclination of researchers to use animals in their ex- periments is an extension of the "Judaeo-Christian ethic" on animals, which infers that animals are here to serve humans. Scientists are trained to be rational and logical, That's good," she said. "They need that quality to be scientists ...you wouldn't want a scientist who tries to make his research come out one way or another. "BUT GIVEN that general training, I have found an attitude among the scien- tific community that animals don't have intrinsic moral or legal rights to exist on their own - they are seen as being here to serve humans. Because of that, not much value is being placed on the animals' lives. As a result, they are overused in research," she said. ' "That's what the debate is really about - not over the use of animals for research. If you must use animals, go ahead and do it, but if you don't ab- solutely have to,, make use of cell cultures or other techniques instead," she added. Liska-Stevens said, however, that the University's animal care facilities "passed with flying colors" when the ULAM procedural manual was looked at by Humane Society authorities. "WE HAVE A program we can be proud of," Cohen agreed. ULAM is staffed by Cohen, his assistant, and four veterinarians who are training to work in the field of laborator animal husbandry. Veterinarians are on call 24 hours a day, 365 days a year to answer queries from researchers. Researchers in University laboratories are expected to monitor the health of their subjects daily. In addition, ULAM staff members visit each site at least once a month to check on the animals and their habitat.' Although a few of the animals are saved after one experiment for use in another experiment, most of the animals are euthanized (put to sleep) at the conclusion of the experiment. Their remains are then cremated, said Cohen. "The animals we get (from animal shelters) would have been put to sleep eventually anyway," Cohen said. "But these animals, by participating in ex- periments, make a great contribution to medical science." Of the 15 million animals put to sleep every year in animal shelters, 200,000 are used in animal research, he said. ULAM facilities are inspected regularly by state officials and U.S. Department of Agriculture in- vestigators. --- ii til L41jcrciII lvc'fl coptic iuj tfjc Cig." - Willham Shiakespeare /f"YNX IFL, 1A k IT DI A\/lTD C - RELIGIOUS DIMENSIONS OF CONTEMPORARY CONCERNS A SERIES OF LECTURE-DISCUSSIONS Continuing the Monday Night series of lectures where sub- jects of current major interest are discussed at the Ecumeni- cal Campus Center, 921 Church Street.
