A storm front rocked the liner Monday night, but skies cleared yesterday with winds at 20 knots and seas three to four feet high. The Mellon, with firefighters aboard, waited with the Prinsendam through the night as it drifted 120 miles southwest of Yakutat off the Alaska coast. Standing by to tow the liner, probably to Portland, Ore., was the tug Commodore Strait.

Collins said he agreed with Piehl about the construction problems, saying the pedestrian traffic makes construction work difficult. "New street lights are being put in to sup lement the old ones and additional cab es are being put in for new lights," Collins said. One University student said he noticed the darkness last night. "If I was a girl, I wouldn't walk around here by myself," he said. The unlit campus'comes at a time when the Univesity is besieged with, rumors following three unsolved mur- ders in the past six months.I The first murder. victim was Shirley Small, 17, who was found dead last April 20 near her home in the Georgetown Townhouses on Page Avenue. ON JULY 13 the body of Glenda Subscribe Now to the D aI. Richmond, 23, was discovered outside the front door of her University Townhouse apartment near Braeburn Circle on Ellsworth Road. The third murder victim, Rebecca Greer Huff, was discovered Sept. 14 at the bottom of her Walden Hills apar- tment steps. Ann Arbor Police Chief William Cor- bett cited four similarities in the mur- ders: * * The victims were stabbed in the chest area. * There is no evidence of sexual molestation. * The women were murdered early Sunday morning. " The women were young, attractive, unescorted females who lived in large apartment complexes with high population densities. Police have theorized that Huff and Richmond were driving alone on Packard Road prior to their murders, and that Small was walking alone on foot from the Big Boy restaurant on Washtenaw Avenue. A composite of a man seen within 30 to 40 yards of Huff's west-side apar- tment complex at the time of her mur- der has been released by police. The man sought is a white male, 27 to 29 years old, muscular, and 5 feet, 7 in- ches to 5 feet, 8 inches tall, police said. He was wearing a white tank top and dark work-type trousers at the time, ,police reported. The University has a' 24-hour telephone service for students who hear a rumor and want to check its ac- curacy. That number is 76-GUIDE. Toxic shock syndrome causes death of girl The death of a teen-age Tennessee girl was officially blamed on toxic shcok syndrome yesterday, and the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists advised women to stop using the super-absorbant tampons pending further study. Dr. Cleland Blake, a Morristown, Tenn., pathologist, said 16-year-old Angela French of Rutledge, Tenn., displayed all the symptoms of toxic shock-vomitting, diarrhea and a high fever-before she died last Thursday. French was the third confirmed victim of toxic shock syndrome within two days. "In general, women need not stop using tampons," the obstetricians and gynecologists said in a statement. "However, it would be prudent, at present, to discontinue the use of the newly developed, super-absorbant tampons, until more conclusive scientific research has been conducted in this area."~ Drummer's death accidental WINDSOR, England-John "Bonzo" Bonham, the burly drummer of thefamous rock group, Led Zeppelin, died from choking on his own vomit af- ter drinking 40 shots of vodka in a 12-hour booze spree, a coroner ruled yesterday.-a Coroner Robert Wilson said the death of Bonham, whose body was found Sept. 25 in the $2 million Windsor home of the group's lead guitarist, Jimmy Page, was an accident. Page, who for unexplained reasons was too weak to stand in the witness box during the inquest, testified that Bonham was already "tipsy" when he arrived at the estate for rehearsals for an American tour that was to start Oct. 16. Conservatives call Labor proposals Marxist BRIGHTON; England-Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher's govern- ing Conservative Party, lagging in the polls, charged yesterday that the op- position Labor Party is trying toturn Britain into a Marxist state. Opening their annual rank-and-file convention, the Conservatives vowed to continue their tough-and increasingly unpopular-economic policies. They also focused on what they charged were the Marxist resolutions passed at Labor's recent rank-and-file convention, including one tahfwould abolish the House of Lords, Britain's upper house of Parliament. Far from doing away with the Lords, the Conservatives said the power of the upper house "should be strengthened and firmly established as a safeguard against arbitary government." Haitian refugees rescued MIAMI-Nearly 200 Haitians, rescued from a foundering 30-foot sail- boat, were loaded onto two Bahamas Defense Force vessels yesterday for a stormy 180-mile trip to Nassau, officials said. About a dozen of the 193 Haitians appeared to be making the trip in the frail sailboat being towed by one of the Bahamian vessels, said U.S. Coast Guard Petty Officer Mike Kelley after flying over the rescue scene. Officials said they/had not determined whether the boat was bound for the United States. Some 15,000 to 25,000 Haitian refugees have traveled to South Florida in recent years. Many have come here in small, unseaworthy vessels. Former heavyweight champV Louis in Texas hospital HOUSTON-Former heavyweight champion Joe Louis, the "Brown Bomber" in many of boxing's most memorable fights, has entered Methodist Hospital, but a spokeswoman said yesterday'it was only for a routine checkup. Louis, 66, has been treated at Methodist for an ailment described as heart trouble or aneurysm. "Everyone's got him near death, but it's not true at all," said Methodist spokeswoman Eleanor Grainger. "I talked with his wife and she said he's just here for his regular checkup and his condition is he's doing fine." Judge rejects request for acquittal in FBI trial WASHINGTON-Turned down on his motion for acquittal, a defense lawyer told a jury yesterday he will prove that two former FBI chiefs haver had reason to believe it was illegal to approve break-ins in a hunt for fugitive radicals. Thoms Kennelly, an attorney for former bureau intelligence chief Ed- ward Miller, delivered an opening statement portraying his client as a man who simply continued 30 years of\FBI practice in okaying the so-called "black bag jobs." Kennelly opened the defense after Chief U.S. District Judge William Bryant rejected his arguments that prosecutors had failed in 13 days of testimony to prove their case against Miller and W. Mark Felt, the FBI's former number two man. Volume XCI, No. 30 Wednesday, October 8, 1980 The Michigan Daily is edited and managed by students at theiJniversity of Michigan.

Some of the finest engineers and scientists in the world work for the Aerospace Corporation. In fact, over half of our technical staff holds an advanced degree. One in four holds a Ph.D. This could be your chance to join these people in shaping America's space program. If you have (or soon wiIlhave) a degree in Engineering, Science or Computer Science, we would like to talk to you on campus. We're doing some very interesting things. Like contributing to the development of space communication systems contained in a single laser beam. For NASA, we have evaluated concepts for large geostationary, synchronous space platforms. Some of the concepts we're developing, won't be used until the 21st century. What you'll be doing. interest. Typically, recent college graduates are assigned to the engineering group or our research and experimental laboratories. Your work could involve anything from gamma ray radiation to the development of a spaceborne computer capable of performing unattended for up to seven years. You'll like our style. We're located in Southern California only three miles from the Pacific Ocean. We work in a quiet, campus-like atmosphere with extensive libraries and computation facilities for support. Meet us in person October 13. We'll be on campus October 13. You can sign up in the college placement office. Or send your resume direct.
