Rock, not bullet, hit Bush's car

From AP and UPI
WASHINGTON - A "loud bang"
punctuated Vice President George
Bush's trip to the office yesterday mor-
ning, creating brief excitement - but no
injuries -as something creased the roof
of his armored Cadillac.
Riot squads assembled, helicopters
hovered, streets were blocked, and of-
ficers searched. But in the end,
authorities said it was just a chunk of
concrete which nicked Bush's armored
limousine.

"LAB TESTS indicate that there
were no steel fragments in the vice
president's car top and they are 99 per-
cent sure it was not a bullet," that hit
the vehicle as it wound through down-
town traffic in the morning rush hour,
said FBI spokesman Ron Dervish.
"We heard a loud bang and drove on
to work and that was it," Bush, said
later. "There really wasn't heightened
tension even. There wasn't anything
scary about it at all...Really, it's gotten
out of hand."

"I'm not used to all this attention."
Bush added.
Dervish said the V-shaped dent in the
Cadillac's roof may have been caused
by a rock kicked up by another vehicle
or possibly thrown by someone. The in-,
vestigation is continuing, Dervish said.
The conclusion came after about four
hours of intensive investigation along a
stretch of the downtown street where
the incident occurred.
Treasury Secretary Donald Regan,
who asked the Secret Service for a full

report on the incident, said, "There
have been a lot of falling objects in that
area." A major construction project is
under way there.
"Nobody was injured; everybody is
safe. The only harm was to the
limousine," Jack Warner of the Secret
Service said.
The incident occurred at about 7:20
a.m. said Warner. He said Bush's
motorcade speeded up but did not take
evasive action, proceeding to the White
House as planned.

Harassment reports called

exaggerated

By PERRY CLARK
University security officials yesterday vehemently
denied reports that they are receiving as many as 10
to 20 calls a night of incidents of sexual harassment
in campus dormitories.
The claim was made Monday night at an East
Quadrangle dormitory government meeting.
"IT'S NOT true," said Walter Stevens, director of
safety. "Maybe the calls go elsewhere, but they don't
come here. We've never had 10 calls in -one flay
dealing with that kind of situation," he said.

Dave Foulke, the manager of security services for
University housing, confirmed that the assertion
made by several East Quad residents was not ac-
curate. "I know absolutely that's false," Foulke said.
"It's (the 10 to 20 calls a night figure) not even in the
ball park. It's a rare night when we get 10 reports in a
24-hour period (concerning) everything."
FOULKE SAID a check of security records
revealed only 10 reports from East Quad in the last
five months relating to sexual harassment.
"Things are really quiet compared to three or four

years ago," Foulke said. "Not to make light of the
situation, but things are not all that bad."
Jay Frost, one of the East Quad Representative
Assembly members who made the claim a' the
meeting Monday night, said he heard the figure from
another student, Mary Garrison, who heard it from a
security guard. Garrison said she could not remem-
ber the guard's name.
But, Joel Allan, the supervisor of security services
for University housing, said, "I don't believe a
security officer made that kind of statement."

course the student is taking."
Crafton cited statistics from a report
by LS&A administrative board
assistant Mary Maguire, in which of
1500 late drops, 750 were exclusively
from five departments : biology,
chemistry, computer. science,
economics, and math.
GEOGRAPHY Prof. Ann Larimore
called the new fee an "excise tax," and
math Prof. Peter Hinman called for a
resolution "in strong opposition" to the
policy.
Assistant LSA Dean for Student
Academic Affairs Eugene Nissen, who
is also a member of the curriculum
committee, requested discussion of the
new fee policy after several of his staff
expressed concern that it was poorly
defined.
In a memo to Ernest Zimmermann,
assistant to Vice President for
Academic Affairs Billy Frye, Nissen
outlined several areas that he said were

not addressed by the policy, including
the specific purpose of the new fee, and
exactly what the new revenue will be
used for.
