0 Page 2-Friday, October 8, 1982-The Michigan Daily Church ofers personality test INBRIEF By NEIL CHASE That yellow "personality quiz" han- ded out on street corners or left in restaurants may turn out to be more than just an evaluation of your psyche. Called the "Oxford Capacity_ Analysis," the 200-question test is distributed by the Church of Scien-. tology in order to introduce its doctrine and services to those seeking "how to become more yourself." THE TEST asks such questions as, "Do you get into trouble occasionally?" and "Would you use corporal punish- ment on a child aged 10 if it refused to obey you?" The answers are used to determine whether you are, for exam- ple, a happy, irresponsible, stable, or withdrawn personality. Once completed and mailed in, the quiz is scored by a church staff mem- ber. The person tested is called in for an interview and the test results are then explained. The solution to your personality, problems? Read "Dianetics," a book on which Scientology is founded, said Rick Fry, public executive secretary for the Ann Arbor church. FRY SAYS the church can offer people "data they can use. . . so their life goes better." However, not everyone will benefit frm the church, or understand the book, Fry added. "We're only here for the able and the capable," he said. The Rev. Marian Dreher, who foun- ded the Ann Arbor church in 1973, says a person must want to help himself. "If a person is waiting for someone to come along with a magic wand and make them better, it won't happen." The. Church of Scientology is an in- ternational organization with branches throughout the United States. The Ann Arbor group was founded as a mission nine years ago and just recently became a full-fledged church with a staff of 15. Dreher, who founded the mission here, said she became a mem- ber through her parents. The group now has an active membership of 40 to 50 people in Ann Arbor, including several University students and alum- ni. DIANETICS, written by church foun- der L. Ron Hubbard, explains the chur- ch's theories and how they can be used. The book explains the difference bet- ween the analytic mind, which remem- bers experiences and computes, and the reactive mind, which contains painful memories and mistaken perceptions. The science of dianetics seeks to remove these "engrams" through counseling. THE GOAL is to emerge as "clear," a person no longer plagued by the troubles of the reactive mind. The chur- ch's courses and training sessions range in cost from free to a "minimum donation" of $150. Many people join the church after hearing about it through books, ar- ticles, and personal contact with church members, in addition to the personality test, said Fry. He said he joined after his sister took the church's personality test and began taking Scientology classes. John Stout, a Michigan alumnus who received a master's degree in music composition in 1981 and arranges music for the Michigan Marching Band, joined the church in 1975. He credits the church with helping him a great deal during high school and college. "I appreciated the techniques for helping a person study ... (and) I can do a lot more things physically than I could do before because of the coun- seling." Another musician, Greg Krueger, heads a Detroit band called ''Dollars." He graduated from the University in 1975 and, along with his wife, formed the band here based on the Church of Scientology's approach to running a business or organization. Krueger said he feels it has prevented him from suf- fering the problems he sees facing many other bands. FEW RELIGIOUS meetings are as informal as the church's Sunday ser- vices in an old house on N. Ingalls St. A recent service included Dreher and five church members seated around a living room. Dreher opened the service by asking all present to introduce them- selves and then read the creed of Scien- See CHURCH, Page 12 Tylenol deaths found unrelated (Continued from Page 1) done by a "copycat" who heard of the Chicago cases. Investigators ruled out industrial sabotage at the manufacturing plants because the deadly capsules had been placed in different loeations and were in containers carrying differing lot numbers. McNeil Consumer Products Co., the manufacturer of Tylenol pain reliever, has offered to exchange all Tylenol capsules, both regular or extra- strength, for Tylenol tablets, which have not beeninvolved in any of the poison taintings in Illinois and Califor- nia. OCTOBER 19 3:30 Rm. 231 Angell Hall MASS MEETING for students interested in AmericanhInstitutions I N T ER N S H I PS Compiled from Associated Press and United Press International reports Senator 'intimidates women,' peace group leader charges WASHINGTON - Betty Bumpers, the wife of Arkansas' senior senator, said yesterday Sen. Jeremiah Denton (R-Ala.), was tryng to intimidate American women by charging that their work against the arms race gives 'comfort and aid" to the Soviet Union. In a charged Senate debate last Friday, Denton objected to a resolution expressing support for Peace Links, an organization founded by Bumpers, the wife of Democratic Sen. Dale Bumpers. Bumpers said Peace Links takes no stand on nuclear arms issues but distributes literature provided by other groups and represents all viewpoin- ts. She said the purpose is to stimulate thinking in women's groups about the arms race. Former first lady Rosalynn Carter, the wives of two governors, and at least 11 congressional wives are associated with Peace Links. Bumpers also took issue with a Washington Post editorial questioning the group's judgement in permitting members the Women's International League for Peace and Freedom and Women Strike for Peace on it s35- member advisory board. The Post said the two organizations have ties to Soviet groups. "I was angered by the reckless use of language, evoking a dark period in the history of our country, McDCarthyism," Bumpers said of the editorial. She asked the Post to "reconsider and retract." Arthritis drug shows promise The first trial of an experimental drug treatment for severe cases of rheumatoid arthritis has halted progress of the disease in five of 17 patients and sparked a startling regrowth of damaged bone, doctors say. "Some of the damge to the bone that people thought would never go away seemed to get better," Dr. Guillermo Carrera of The Medical College of Wisconsin in Milwaukee said yesterday. "It startled us." Carrera, a radiologist, helped assess the effectiveness of the new treatment developed by Dr. Daniel McCarty, a rheumatologist at the college. Dr. Frederic McDuffie of the Arthritis Foundation in Atlanta said the study is moderately important, but the treatment would be useful only for a small - but important -fraction of the almost 7 million Americans who have rheumatoid arthritis. Rheumatoid arthritis is a chronic disease characterized by inflammation, pain and swelling in the joints. It can lead to deformity of the joints. The treatment consisted of a combination of three drugs known to be effec- tive against rheumatoid arthritis - cyclophosphamide, azathioprine and hydroxychloroquine. Weinberger says Soviets tried to steal U.S. military device WASHINGTON- Defense Secretary Caspar Weinberger said yesterday that the Soviets attempted to steal a device vital to air and satellite recon- naissance, but the equipment was intercepted before leaving the United States. Weinberger mentioned this briefly in a speech in which he accused the Soviets of using both legal and illegal methods "to raid our technological base." "They tried to steal a multispectral scanner, which is indispensable to military air and satellite reconnaissance," Weinberger said in a speech prepared for the American League for Exports and Assistance. "Fortunately, it was intercepted as it was being smuggled out of the coun- try on a corporate aircraft," he added. GM found guilty of sex bias LANSING- The Michigan Court of Appeals agreed yesterday that provisions of a former General Motors Corp. contract limiting disability benefits for pregnancy constituted illegal sex discrimination under state law. Robert Segar, attorney for the women, said if the ruling stands, all women who worked for GM between 1970 and 1977 and suffered pregnancy-related disabilities of more than six weeks duration would be eligible for damages. "Based on the foregoing, we find no merit to defendant's contention that, under Michigan law, the limitation of pregnancy benefits is not sex-based discrimination," the court said. GM also argued disabilities resulting from pregnancy are different from disabilities resulting from sickness or injury which the contract was meant to cover. "An employee who is giving childbirth, or is suffering from complications as a result of giving childbirth, fits within this definition of 'disabled' just as much as an employee who suffers from an illness or from injuries, whether accidental or self-inflicted," the court said. Military gets pay boost WASHINGTON- The Pentagon has put into effect a 4 percent pay in- crease for the more than 2.1 million men and women in uniform, the lowest annual pay boost since 1976. President Reagan initially proposed an 8 percent military pay increase for this year, but a congressional budget resolution adopted in June stipulated a 4 percent increase and Reagan fell in line with the lower figure in August. Defense manpower chief Lawrence Korb forecasted an administration backtrack on pay increases last April when he told Congress that "we recognize that the Department of Defense, like other groups in the public and private sector, may have to sacrifice a bit." Korb linked this statement with an acknowledgement that "a lesser in- crease may be called for" in order to fight inflation. .. 0 mm LSA students and students interested in management careers in public and private institutions are encouraged to apply.
