'Intellectuals' and perpetuate UM-MS By STEVE HOOK Ah, college rivalries. The students may come and go like migrating geese, but the rivalries endure. Across the country, students of neighboring schools seem to try their har- dest not to get along with each other. As long as they are competing in academic or athletic ventures, one- upsmanship reigns supreme. FEW COLLEGE RIVALRIES are more firmly en- enched than the Michigan vs. Michigan State con- est. Ever since the northern neighbor shed its cow college ways and became a formidable Big Ten power, the student bodies of Ann Arbor and East Lansing have been at odds. Today, with the Spartans invading Michigan Stadium to take on the Wolverines, the rivalry is as strong as ever. Said one MSU student: "It's a fu just hate Michigan on this campus.

Vol. XCI, No. 33 Copyright 1980, The Michigan Daily Ann Arbor, Michigan-Saturday, October 11, 1980 Ten Cents Ten Pages Algerian quakes kill thousands Is Large city virtually destroyed From AP and UPI ALGIERS, Algeria-Two severe earthquakes yesterday killed "thousands" of people and destroyed 80 percent of the city of Al Asnam, an official government communique reported. The quake struck the city of Al Asnam, 150 miles west of Algiers, at 12:30 p.m. (8:30 a.m. EDT) and was followed by a second tremor two hours later lasting more than a minute. Al Asnam has 125,000 inhabitants. THE OFFICIAL ALGERIAN news agency APS described the quake as "a catastrophe," but did not give a precise num- ber of how many people were killed or injured. The government mobilized army, air force, police and civil defense units for an emergency relief operation to help the injured and homeless and search for bodies in ruined buildings. Civil and military workers evacuated many injured people, APS said. The government reported whole apartment buildings had collapsed. Old and prefabricated buildings on the outskirts of the city also shuddered and fell, causing more casualties, the officials said. "LARGE FISSURES, SOME deep, run across the coun- tryside and in some places the road has collapsed," APS said. "Whole families are gathered at the roadside, having fled their ruined homes." Officials closed roads leading into the city for safety reaons and security services turned back "the curious," APS reported. FRANCE PORTUGAL SPAIN. Earthquake Devastate.

Dor m bre akfasts fop By BARRY WITT As election day nears and the ballot proposal to lower the legal drinking age to 19 comes closer to a vote, supporters of the proposal acknowledge a close fight is ahead, while opponents believe the proposition has little chance of suc- cess. Evelyn Vinolus a spokeswoman for Nineteen is Fair, the Michigan group running the campaign for passage of Proposal B, said she believes the race is "neck and neck. Too many people believe. (Proposal B) is going to pass easily, but it'snot." , THE HEAD OF the Michigan Council on Alcohol Problems, the principal opponent to Nineteen is Fair, said the climate now is not good for passage. Reverend Allen Rice said that because many voters will be voting "no" on the tax proposals on the ballot, they will follow suit on the drinking age question. Opponents of Proposal B are repeating many of the arguments used in 1978 when the drinking age was raised from 19 to 21. They main- tain that the 21 legal age keeps alcohol out of the high schools and decreases the alcohol-related ac- cident rate. "If you want more kids having ac- cidents, vote for B," Rice said recently. "But if you want more lives saved, vote 'no."' REPRESENTATIVES of Nineteen is Fair and a host of state officials disagree markedly with See DRINKING, Page 2 City dealers report drop in liquor sales By JEFF VOIGT In the two years since the state drinking age was raised to 21, local bars, restaurants, and stores have had to adjust to changes in their sales and clientele, according to Ann Arbor merchants. While some 18-to-20-year-olds still frequent 'local watering holes and liquor stores, these establishments have beefed up efforts to screen out sales and service to those under 21. Statewide., the number of licensed liquor distributors cited by the Liquor Control Commission for "selling, serving, or allowing minors to consume liquor" has doubled sin- ce the drinking age was raised from 19 to 21 in December 1978, increasing from 378 in 1978 to 634 in 1979. From January to August, 1980 a total of 800 citations were issued statewide. Updated figures for Ann Arbor were unavailable.

The Housing Office's new dorm breakfast program has attracted only about 15 early risers every morning since its inception September 29. THOSE 15 HAVE purchased $10 meal tickets for either Stockwell or Bursley dormitories that can be used to buy cereal, juice, rolls, coffee, and other continental breakfast items. The low turnout, however, apparently has not discouraged housing officials, who instituted the breakfast program in response to the results of a dorm resident survey conducted last year. "Of course I'd like to see mbre people there," Associate Director of Housing Norm Sunstad said yesterday. "But I don't have a feeling of failure at all. It's a nice service and there is noadditional cost imposition on the students" because only those students who use the Housing St akprogram ' service pay for it, Sunstad said. ALTHOUGH THE Stockwell program is intended to serve all Hill area dorm residents, most of the diners there have been Stockwell residents. The breakfast service is offered from 7:30 to 8:30 a.m., and yesterday two women came appropriately dressed for the early hour-in pajamas and bathrobes. Stockwell resident Sarah Walsh said she believes the early hours of the program' have discouraged students from taking advantage of it. "This is the first time I've been here, and none of my friends ever eat here," she said. "There probably aren't many people up at this hour." Walsh added that the selection of menu items was fairly good. One student from another dorm, An- drew 'Whallon of Mosher Jordan, said he had eaten breakfast at Stockwell before, although only infrequently. "I don't think many people know about it," he said. Sunstad said he did nqt think the program would be extended to 9 a.m. every morning to attract more students because of the increased costs that would be involved. The cafeterias are normally open until 8:30 a.m. to ac- / commodate students making sack lun- ches, Sunstad said, but after that time additional employees would have to be hired. ..............t............................................................................................... -.......................................... .......... ...........................,.............. v ............. :.................................. n...... ......r ...... r.....v......... ..v.......... v. v....rv... ......... x.:XL: r::ri.

The Night Owl bus currently departs from the Undergraduate Library and heads south on Tappan St. en route to Hill St., she said. With Wednesday. The students were members of an earth scien- ce class that took a field trip to a Beaufort Bay marsh to gather marine samples. They got stuck up to their necks in mud when they decided not to wait for the tide to rise and began walking over the mud to, the water. Beaufort policemen used life preservers and ropes to pull the unharmed, but upset students back to solid ground. "I'm distressed ... but the students really were in no danger," said Principal Riddick Trowell, adding that field trips are still on for the marine biology program. Several other students got stuck also, though not as deeply, he said. All of we wouldn't have to resort to films. It was great," Hannah said Thursday. The reason for the unusual schooling is that Hannah thinks breastfeeding may prevent a disease which killed one newborn gorilla this summer-and landed another in the hospital. Because the zoo has always taken newborn apes away from their mothers, according to Hannah, they don't know how to breastfeed their young. But the apes are intelligent and will learn quickly, he said. Deborah Williams, 30, of suburban Worhington, was one of the women who offered her services, "I'm very interested in the zoo," she explained. Her husband doesn't particularily and started down the steps," Collette explained. Instead of landing on the step, his foot hit the edge and his body weight shifted back on it, breaking his foot. "I'm being laughed at by every court employee and all my friends. If it wasn't right in the middle of the campaign it would be funny," said Collette, who has a cast on his foot and is on crutches. Now, he says he'll just have to convince voters "that I have been walking up and down stairs very successfully for almost 35 years." e. i _I i , I
